Mining equipment has come a long way since the days of mule-drawn carriages for haulage, and canaries or Davy lamps for safety.
In terms of high-voltage equipment, large AC and DC motors are still at the order of the day, but with increased sophistication. Load-haul-dump trucks operate in hazardous environments without a driver on board. Sophisticated Motor Control Centers now house Variable Speed Drives and soft-starters, and the motor control equipment is often networked via Ethernet.
It is, however, on the low-voltage side where the developments are almost breathtaking. In certain parts of the world all mines in the region are monitored centrally on a SCADA system, with backhauls (fiber and wireless) to all mines in the region, forming a large Wide Area Network.
At the mine sites Ethernet networks, both wired and wireless, are at the order of the day both above and below ground level. Leaky Feeder wireless systems are still to be found, but nowadays they support Ethernet and TCP/IP, making them suitable for voice and data. IEE802.11 wireless (a.k.a. Wi-Fi), suitably adapted for the mining environment, is making vast inroads into mining operations. Wi-Fi-based systems are used for both data and voice (VoIP), and with suitable Radio Frequency ID interfaces they also provide the infrastructure for monitoring personnel and vehicle movement. Some 802.11-based systems can even be configured in mesh topologies, delivering military-grade reliable communications between moving personnel and vehicles in an open mine environment.
Industrial field buses such as HART, AS-i, Profibus, Foundation Fieldbus and DeviceNet are widely used in the mining industry. As is the case with most other electronics, they are increasingly moving towards a co-existence with Ethernet, and augmentation with wireless. And, of course, some of them can perform safety functions as well as operate in intrinsically safe environments.
SCADA and distributed control is at the order of the day, and data from these systems are used as inputs to expert systems. These systems are used for various purposes such as providing data for optimized mine management, safety, and advanced process control. It is, in many cases, not even necessary for control room staff to understand anything about PID control in order to optimize a given control loop; the advanced process control system will heed their 'operator' inputs and optimize the process on their behalf.
Personal safety has not lagged behind. For example, ground radar can detect sub-millimeter ground movements, UWB and Wi-Fi systems are teamed up to avoid collisions between people and vehicles, and integrated headlamps for miners not only have built-in radio communications facilities, but also Ultra-Low Frequency ground-to-surface pagers for emergency location.
So, in short, the mining industry is attracting the best of the best cutting-edge commercial and industrial electrical and electronics technologies. The question is are you capable of dealing with it?
This program would be ideal for you if you are seeking to gain know-how and expertise in the mining industry and are an:
Even if you are highly experienced you will find this a great way to become familiar with mining technology as quickly as possible.
This program is composed of 19 modules, covering 5 main streams:

In order to meet the exacting demands of the oil and gas, mining, manufacturing and downstream processing industries, modern plants are equipped with systems and devices which are needed to measure and regulate variables such as temperature, pressure, flow, humidity, liquid level, velocity and density. Industrial Automation provides the technology to control and monitor a process plant using such concepts as feedback, cascade, feedforward and advanced process control. Here at the Engineering Institute of Technology (EIT), we have developed industry-focused programs in the form of vocational diplomas, advanced diplomas and graduate certificates, all the way up to Masters level in the higher education sector.
There is a critical shortage of automation, instrumentation and control engineers, technicians and technologists around the world now due to the retirement, restructuring and rapid growth in new technologies and industries. The respected International Society of Automation (ISA) organization estimated that at least 15,000 new automation engineers are needed annually in the USA alone.
In keeping with the philosophy of EIT, students in this school are exposed to the practical, up-to-the-minute knowledge and skills demanded by leading industries worldwide, with online instrumentation courses. EIT does not just cater to a generic student body, instead all of our online instrumentation courses are specific to industry. The programs cover a large range of topics and are suited to anyone needing an intensive and practical look at all facets of industrial automation, instrumentation and process control.
The short courses that form part of EIT's professional development series are designed to provide students with critical knowledge and practical tools that can be immediately applied to the workplace. They are ideal to up-skill and/or cross-skill in a particular area or technology and are not accredited programs.
Students in EIT's School of Industrial Automation, Instrumentation and Process Control study subjects which include: process control, instrumentation, control valves, process plant layout and piping design, tuning of process loops, SCADA, PLCs, advanced process control (APC), boiler control, hazardous areas, safety instrumentation (IEC 61511 and IEC 61508), HAZOPs, industrial data communications, networking, deviceNet and Fieldbus, industrial wireless, radio telemetry systems, shielding/EMC/EMI, and noise reduction.
There is scarcely an aspect of modern life that is not dependent on electrical energy. It is used in such varied activities as cooling, heating, transport, manufacturing, production, communications, minerals processing and water transfer. Engineers and technicians with an electrical diploma find employment in fields as diverse as generation, transmission, distribution and the eventual application of electrical energy in machinery. Due to the challenges of climate change there is also a vital interest in the use and storage of renewable and sustainable energy. The demand for well trained electrical professionals is assured with rapid expansion of the electricity supply in the developing world, the addition of the yet-to-be-constructed smart grid, and our growing dependency upon electricity supply of high integrity.
Electrical engineering skills and knowledge are also critical in a wide range of industries ranging from oil and gas, water utilities, process plants, mining, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing and defence. The Engineering Institute of Technology (EIT) provides electrical engineering courses online for engineers and technicians of all levels and from all types of industry, be it mining, oil and gas or instrumentation. The Advanced Diplomas in Electrical Engineering cover a large range of topics and are suited to anyone needing an intensive and practical look at all facets of electrical engineering. The short courses that form part of EIT's professional development series are designed to provide students with critical knowledge and practical tools that can be immediately applied to the workplace. They are ideal to up-skill and/or cross-skill in a particular area or technology.

Well those are your opinions you are free to them. While I have not owned the 846, I have owned the se535 bronze and the se535-ltd-j on a point of view as far as build quality they are both the same so personally I can speak for my own personal experiences with the mmcx connector. Of which I had issues on both factory and upgrade cables on. Both the ltd and bronze edition.
Im not comparing one connector to another in my statement. But more so saying that it sucks that people with the w4r cant directly swap out their upgrade cable to the new w40 so in that respect it sucks that you need to either upgrade the pins or upgrade to a mmcx cable that will work.
And I dont particularly follow logitech as "ultimate ears" in my opinion they went down hill when UE sold out thats just my opinion.
But reading up on the 900 and seeing segments of people complaining about build quality and cable Issues thats all I have to go off of. Although its not a all be all answer its a good indication of a product. And there are complaints from the mmxc from buyers.
But we are getting off track here. Im not here to fight or sway a opinion based on any connectors.
I prefer the pins others prefer the mmxc its fair to say to each their own. I wish I had better experiences with that sort of connection but its not the case. But im not here to imply or sway a opinion about the connectors.
But you have to admit if you have a pinned upgrade cable that cost 400.00 for the w4 and now if you want to upgrade the iem you now need to upgrade the xable along with it. Thats more of wjat im talking about.
On the switching of connectors by Westone we completely agree. It is worse than when Apple changed the connectors from the 30 pin to their proprietary lightning connector and forced me among many others to buy the adapter. With Westone now you have to send your cables to be reterminated. Candidly, one of the reasons is purchased the SE846 was with the same connector and nozzle size as all other Shure IEMs I simply switched my aftermarket cables and eartips I already had to he 846.
I also agree that UE is not the same company since Jerry Harvey left after the acquisition by Logitech. The innovations are coming from JH Audio not Logitech UE anymore.
I also think Westone is crazy to introduce a whole new lineup with from what I heard only cosmetic changes but no change in the sonic signature. Why anyone would buy the W40 at $500 when the 4r is on sale for $300 is beyond me.

Moving on to Certification
Conformance requirements are done! The conformance requirements you all built with us are here. We're getting started on certification research. We're still working on the same question, taking interoperability to the next level. Certification defines what xAPI applications need to do to work well in practice.
We need your help!
There are a few ways you can contribute your input to the discuss.
All xAPI Enthusiasts
For every stakeholder of xAPI, this link will take you to an idea-gathering platform we're using to gather your input. Would you rather talk about it? Grab a time slot for a 30 minute conversation here.
How should xAPI Data Interoperability work?
Where have you had to do custom work and would prefer there were a consistent implementation? Things like vocabulary are recognized as needs here. Tell us about how you would like these things to work.
Very Technical xAPI Friends
For the very technical professionals who are responsible for developing and implementing systems that must interoperate with other systems that use xAPI, this link will take you to a survey to gather your input on what xAPI certification should include.
We'd like to get input from those who are familiar and have a serious stake in technical requirements, like Data Science, IT and Software Engineers. There are many optional practices in the xAPI specification, which should be required for certification?
How should xAPI Data Interoperability work?
DISC is collaborating with the Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) initiative for xAPI's software conformance and certification. We need input from a broad, diverse set of stakeholders. The ideas we're looking to gather revolve around that question.
In other words, what are the qualities of xAPI-enabled software that make it "plug and play?" How does one xAPI-enabled software work with other xAPI-enabled software? How do you know when it's working? What are your expectations for what should be configured? Furthermore, what should these technologies do by default to work with other xAPI-enabled technologies?
From your input, we'll draw requirements for three projects on which we're working with ADL and the xAPI Community. As a result, your participation informs…
- Software certification tests that evaluate how well software meets with stakeholder expectations for interoperability
- Professional certification tests that evaluate the competency of people who work with xAPI.
How else can you get involved?
Join ADL's xAPI Specification Listserv
Since its earliest days, this mailing list has served as the best way for the xAPI Community to talk about the spec. It's completely open to the public so you don't have to join to follow the conversations, but we invite you to join this strong, committed community of peers at https://groups.google.com/a/adlnet.gov/forum/#!forum/xapi-spec.
You can help us by actively reviewing the feedback we're collecting from this research in our weekly conformance requirements meetings on the following Thursdays at 10:30am Eastern. Join our meeting from your computer, tablet or smartphone.
You can also dial in using your phone. United States: +1 (857) 706-3402 Access Code: 790-255-773

Would anyone like to share their story?
Posted by

Hi everyone -
I wonder about the 'demographics' here - varying ages, differing causes of the PF, treatment choices, etc.
I'm in my upper 40s, have had leg pain off and on for some time, but developed heel pain about a year ago. Podiatrist said it was PF, pushed for me to buy expensive orthotics. I think mine was caused by years of walking barefoot at home. The foot pain has gotten worse and I now have more consistent pain from the heel, through the calf, thigh and into hip and lower back. Getting very frustrated about the pain, as it's begun to interfere with activities: almost impossible to ride in car for very long, harder to work at computer, even standing hurts as I'm noticing more pain in my other leg as well.
Prescription anti-inflammatories did not seem to help.
Epsom salt soaks felt good, but didn't offer much relief.
Have tried ice and heat and those treatments might or might not help - I think it depends on severity of pain.
A few days ago, I found some inexpensive shoes called Okabashi which are foot therapy shoes designed for reflexology. I thought 'great!' - wore them for a days and my foot and leg hurt more!
Bought a lace-up ankle stabilizer, but the top edge of it cut into my foot and made my toes tingle.
I even soaked my foot today in hot water with baking soda! Am I desperate or what? I don't know, baking soda is good for a lot of things, so I thought why not give it a try? (lol)
Today, I've begun to take plain old Tylenol.
If anyone would like to share their story, please do.
And (gentlemen, forgive the exclusion here), but are any of you ladies on the board near menopause age? I do wonder if some of the leg pain experienced by some women might be due in part to the hormonal changes of menopause.
Everyone have a good weekend.

Hi PW --
You might want to give more detail about the type of pain you are experiencing and its specific location. From your general description, you could possibly have PF, spinal stenosis, a disk issue in your back, sciatica, or circulatory/vascular issues. Also, you might want to post on the 'ask the doctors' board.
Happy Easter, and I hope you start feeling better soon.

Thanks, BrianJ -
Circulation checked ok, mild arthritis in lower back. I'm pretty sure the leg pain is the PF.
Basically, my post was just to share some of the things I've tried, and ask others details of their PF - what caused it, treatment choices, ages, etc. Just general info.

Hi pw,
If you read Scott's
Heel Pain Book
, you'll see the results of his most recent survey on demographics of the people who have come to these Boards. Having posted here for about two years, I'd say that the present demographics are really all over the place. We have many runners here, male and female, and almost all of us do, or did, exercise on a regular basis before getting PF. My guess is that currently, age-wise, we run from the early thirties to the mid-sixties.
Each of us has a different story and background. Some of our posters are cured, or almost cured, and many of us are much better than we were when we first got PF and discovered these Boards.
My story, trying to be as brief as possible, and I tend to ramble as the regulars will tell you, is that eight years ago I developed an atypical Morton's Neuroma on my right foot. At the same time, I was also experiencing a great deal of arch pain. The timeline gets kind of fuzzy but ultimately I got custom orthotics which seemed to help the Neuroma pain a great deal but did not help my arch pain a great deal. My biggest mistake was asking my doctor if I could try Physical Therapy where they had me do all the wrong things for PF. I came out of PT with full-blown PF, and experienced heel pain for the first time. I finally had to give up my part-time job which involved standing as for me, as with many others, standing is an extremely painful activity.
From these boards, I learned not to do wall strethes or hang from the stairs and hundreds of other things not to do. I also was able to figure out the things that worked best for me. They are Vioxx, icing, resting, custom orthtoics, and doing Yoga stretches that a lovely lady named Julie who is a Yoga instructor shared with us.
I can tell you that many of our posters are almost completely healed. Some, like me, find that we can do much more than we used to but that our activity level has never come back to what it once was. One of the most encouraging things is that many find that when we overdo it, it takes less time for our feet to 'bounce back' to a near-normal state and that is very heartening.
I was going to tell you to do a seach under Yoga stretches for the stretches to do but I realized it was just as easy for me to post them so below, I have cut and pasted Julie's stretches. I would highly recommend that you try them.
Here are Julie's 'Yoga foot exercises' (I copied and pasted them from a recent post):
These are simple yoga exercises for the feet. They're part of a series for all the joints called Pawanmuktasana. That means 'energy-releasing exercises', and they release energy by speeding the removal of toxins from the joints. They work systematically and precisely on the joints and on their associated muscles, tendons and ligaments. They can be done sitting on the floor with the legs outstretched (a difficult position to hold, especially for people with low back problems), or lying down, or sitting in a chair, or standing on alternate legs (a non-no for folks with PF). Sitting in a chair and lying down are best.
These exercises can be helpful in cases of plantar fasciitis in several ways.
1. They improve circulation generally. In particular they increase blood flow to the areas being worked on, which promotes healing.
2. They gently stretch the calf muscles and achilles tendons, which in time reduces the strain on the PF.
3. They strengthen the entire musculature of the feet and ankles.
4. They improve range of motion, and help to avoid losing it during the 'down time' of decreased activity.
This one works the toe joints (all 28 of them) while holding a gentle stretch through the achilles tendons and calf muscles; and works the entire musculature of the feet.
Extend one heel forward and hold this gentle stretch while working on your toes.
Curl your toes forward, as if making fists of your feet. (Don't do this so enthusiastically that you give yourself a cramp.)
Then stretch the toes and spread them: make spaces between them.
Do this nine times, breathing out as you curl the toes, and breathing in as you stretch them.
Repeat with the other foot, then with both feet.
This one works on the ankle joints and on the achilles/soleus/ gastrocnemuis complex. It helps to increase ankle dorsiflexion, the essential thing for PF-ers who are generally tight in this area.
Bend the feet forwards at the ankles, and then bend them back, one at a time, then together.
Do each nine times on each foot, then both feet, breathing out as you bend forwards, in as you bend back.
Circle the feet at the ankles, slowly and carefully, nine times in each direction, first one foot, then the other, then both. Breathe freely.
If you co-ordinate your movements with your breath it increases their effectiveness because it (a) slows you down and (b) makes you more aware of what you're doing.
I've practised and taught these exercises for many years. They are effective and powerful, and useful for people with PF because they're both non- weight-bearing and specific. And they're very energizing.
I do them in the morning before I get out of bed, and would recommend this to anyone with PF to help avoid the 'first step' pain.
They can be done as many times a day as you like: the more the better. It's good to do them before getting up after sitting for awhile.
I hope you will find these exercises helpful.
All the best for your healing.

I am 45 and am post menopausal. I was an early menopause and had no hormone treatments because my doc said I was too young for menopause. That was when I was 39. I went through it without any help or support. He finally tested me and the results not only confirmed it but he said it was the highest score he'd ever seen. I feel that my problems (TTS and PF) are related to a hormone change. There is some research about menopause and foot problems. I use a a menopause formula progesterone cream. I use it on my feet, ankles calves and knees. It has helped. You can purchase it in the vitamin dept. at Walmart. That is the only place I have seen it. All I know is that if I go several days without it I cna barely walk by the end of the week.

HI Lara:
I have wondered about this too. All and I mean ALL of my symptoms with my feet began with menopause. SO does that mean when menopause is behind us our feet will be healed. I am dreaming.......

Re; baking soda which you mentioned in your note, I agree that it's great for lots of thing. I use it to cure canker sores by drinking 1/2 teaspoon of it mixed with 6 oz water. It seems to make the body and mouth less acidic, relieves the pain and shortens the duration.
For me, anti-inflammatories didn't help much but I mostly avoided them anyway since I don't like to put drugs in my body if possible (other than caffeine, which is my favorite drug! I love coffee). Celebrex was a waste of money and I reacted badly to it, by the way. Advil is much better for me, but everyone's body chemistry is different so I suppose we all take to different things.
I got P.F. 4 yrs ago when I was 39.
I was a runner who overpronates moderately.
I think I got P.F. more from a pair of boots with high (2') heels rather than from running but I'm not sure. The low boots I wore were quite comfortable, but now if I try to wear them my feet 'scream' at me! If I try to wear any heels at all my feet really hurt.
My feet feel great now, as long as I don't do too much. I'm currently trying to get past this final stage without getting a bad relapse, so that I can once again exercise. I'm doing that by using the foot trainer and walking barefoot a little bit. Walking barefoot is a big no-no for p.f. sufferers. However, I am experimenting to see if by gradually getting my feet accustomed to going barefoot, I might strengthen the muscles that have become weak over the years. This thinking of mine is probably way off base and I know that I risk reinjury by doing this but am being very careful to walk barefoot on carpets and for only short periods of time. So far it's been OK. I'm not reccomending this to others--just stating what I'm doing, insane as it is.
I'm also walking short distances outdoors to try and exercise my feet and make them more fit. I'm careful to avoid steep hills.
One thing that really aggravates my feet is STRESS. My feet have been feeling great lately until the other day when my pet rabbit began having seizures. I had hand-raised her from a newborn (she was orphaned) and was quite attached. The stress involved with rushing to the vets, multiple phone calls to various info sources, etc. caused my feet to react. I was surprised by this
but it makes sense, I guess. The rabbit is still alive with probable encephalitis and now that she's recovering, my feet feel better.
I also wonder if anyone else out there has dreams about their feet. Whenever I experienced anxiety about certain things that occured in life, I would have dreams about walking with bare feet on thorns, snow, etc. and looking for shoes to cover my feet from the discomfort. Then I got p.f. and still have dreams about my feet, though the current dreams are of healthy feet and running--fun things.
Well, sorry to ramble. You told us to tell our story and I guess I overdid it!

I think the PF I have been experiencing for about 6-8 months stems from several factors. Being overweight, I decided to increase my activity level and began a very vigorous walking program, all on hard and extremely uneven surfaces. Being cheap about some things, I decided to stick with my old, worn-out sneakers that had long before lost their cushioning. Around the same time, I heard the author of the book 'AstroFit' interviewed and he commented on a simple exercise that he thought was key to maintaining good bone health; it involved simply bouncing up and down on one's heels, on a hard surface; the point being to provide enough shock to the bones to stimulate bone strength ... please understand this is from memory and paraphrase and quite awhile ago, so my current recounting may be full of error.... anyway, as I walked on the hard, uneven surfaces in my much worn sneakers, I did, indeed, pause at every intersection and proceed to bounce my somewhat round body up and down on those precious heels in the belief that I was doing something good for my skeletal system like the NASA astronauts did!
Then my husband and I decided to resume a regular yoga practice, did 'Downward Dog' too soon and too much. I also have some history of sciatica and that seemed to rear its ugly head around the same time. All together, these things finally brought my feet into full rebellion and they screamed, 'Enough! We quit!' Since all of this, I have rested, done some stretches, tried various shoes...all with only mild improvement. Then I purchased some Foot Trainers, continued to explore various shoes (I am a great fan of Dansko) and am feeling ready to begin a wiser, better, appropriate exercise regimen again. I think the Foot Trainers are very helpful. I think Danskos are very helpful. I think massage is very helpful. Recently, I added some supplements (Per Sharon's post on this site) that I think are helpful, but still experimenting with all. I think this website is VERY helpful and I am very grateful for it. End of story, thus far.

My heel pain started in 1998. I kept noticing that my right heel hurt when I got up in the morning. Finally after about 4 months of pain, I went to my doctor and described the pain and was told that I had PF. He gave me a shot or cortizone and told me the pain would probably go away. WRONG, the shot helped for about 3 months and the the pain came back with a vegenance. I bought new tennis shoes and suffered for about another year. Finally I went back to the doctor (MD) and got another shot and he set me up with some threapy. The exercises they taught me helped some. The night splint has helped some also. It was not until about 3 weeks ago I found this site I leared about
. The
has been a God-send. I have also subscribed to a magazine for my shoes. This short note cannot begin to explain the pain I have felt. Some days tears flowed down my face just getting up in the morning and trying to work. I religously view this site daily. I am trying the yoga exercises now, because stretching hurts so much. Some days I can only use rest and ice. I have just started a serious diet hoping that losing weight will also help with the pain. I work with social services so sometime I am on my feet a lot. Also jut recently I started a Wedding Service, doing most of the catering. 16 hours on and off my feet have been brutal. I fully intend recover. Thanks to all of you who have shared stories, this site makes my day.

Hi Sandra, Thought I would reply to your story. This is the first time I've been to this site... It's comforting to realize that other people are in agony too and that i'm not just a big wuss!! I was allergic to my child during my pregnancy and was treated with steroids, causing serious weight gain. i beleive this to be what brought on my PF. I had a cortisone injection about 10 months ago, but am miserable again. I had ortotics made, but didn't really wear them as I thought erroneously that the shot had fixed my problem. I am currently trying to be seen again by a podiatrist, but have found wonderful advice here!! I am anxious to try combinations of remedies..but I am also disheartened...feeling that it is so unfair that I will have to be conscious of my feet the rest of my life. I'm only 29!!! I am also hoping weight loss will help, but that's a whole other issue. Tell me in detail how to do the
, if you would. I have very high arches and would like extra support. Also, tell me a bit more about your night splint...Thanks much!

Hi all:I am moving to Chicago, and I have no clue where to live, my job is near the airport and I will have a car. So I don't know if downtown is a good option (I heard that the traffiic is terrible there), or to choose something near my job. In one hand I don't want to spend hours and hours driving, but on the other hand I don't want to live in the middle of nowhere. I am single and I will live on my own, so I want a safe place, I love playing sports, so if I have a nice park and tennis facilities nearby will be a plus, and I prefer don't spend my whole salary on the rent, but have no clue about prices too...Any idea suggestion, where is a nice affordable place to live?Thanks all!

Excellent 4.3 /5 from 16 reviews
Loved the gourmet all-inclusive food!
I'll admit that we were not optimistic about a family all-inclusive resort but we were invited to Azul Fives as wedding guests so we reluctantly obliged. Boy, were we wrong. Our room (1 BR suite) was spacious and clean with two bathrooms, more than enough to accommodate my 7 year old son, husband and me. The resort is very well-staffed which makes service plentiful and the restaurants offered many options, all of them good. Heinecken is offered on tap, the house wine was actually quite good and I was particularly impressed by the offer of top shelf spirits that are included in the all-inclusive price. Our son really loved the kids club. We came back two days ago and are already looking for a long weekend when we can return.
Excellent food and service. Local construction was inconvenient. Beach was small.

Your Money: That daily Americano doesn't earn you interest
April 3, 2013
I've never denied the fact that I am a numbers geek through and through. I enjoy numbers and I think they are fun and powerful. To illustrate this point, I wanted to share a few of my favorite concepts. Give these some thought, play around with them, and most definitely, share them with your kids and your friends! Why do I think numbers are powerful? Four words: time value of money. This may not be the simplest of concepts to illustrate, but once you get it, it will change the way you think about little purchases. Time value of money basically means that if you save money now, it will grow in future years because of compound interest. If you have $100 now, and it earns 5 percent interest, that $100 will become $1,000 or more in 50 years. That may not seem like a big deal, but if you can save $1,000 each and every year for those same 50 years, you will have saved $50,000 in cash, but that $50,000 will be worth more than $200,000 because of the interest you can earn along the way.Think it's too hard to save $1,000 per year? That's the equivalent of going out to dinner once a month, purchasing a fancy coffee a few days a week or eating lunch out twice a week. Not all that challenging when you break it down. So, the next time you are deciding between grabbing lunch at the local pizza place or brown-bagging it, how nice would it feel to have $200,000 cash ready for you in retirement?More powerful to consider, try sharing this strategy with your kids. If they can start a Roth IRA when they start working around age 16 and contribute $5,000 that year and for their next 50 years, they will have over $1 million when they are 66. Sure, it's hard to get a kid to look that far ahead, but it's worth a shot and at least you can say you tried. If you do happen to catch their attention, they will most certainly thank you later. My dad had this conversation with me when I was 10, and I assure you, it was a life-changing conversation.Want another trick to share with your kids? Grab some paper and a pencil and try the double-a-penny trick. Start with one penny on day one, double it on day two to two pennies; day three it becomes four pennies, and so on. How much do you think it will be worth in 30 days? I'm not going to post the answer here, but I will post a demonstration on my website in case anyone wants to check out the answer. Trust me, it will shock you.There is power in knowledge, and that most certainly extends to numbers. Play around with these concepts and you will see that a little savings can go a long, long way.

Martha Argerich's associations with violinist Gidon Kremer and cellist Mischa Maisky are surely among the pianist's most substantial and musically rewarding collaborations. The present collection includes all of the Argerich/Kremer and Argerich/Maisky duo recordings for Deutsche Grammophon as originally released and in chronological order. Although Argerich has participated in numerous musical partnerships, not to mention her longtime mentoring of young artists, her associations with violinist Gidon Kremer and cellist Mischa Maisky are surely among the pianist's most substantial and musically rewarding collaborations. The present collection includes all of the Argerich/Kremer and Argerich/Maisky duo recordings for Deutsche Grammophon as originally released and in chronological order, allowing listeners the opportunity to trace each duo's evolution in terms of artistic rapport, sensitivity, risk-taking and the fine tuning of nuance.

This CD compilation presents, on 8 discs, 17 recording sessions made between 1951 and late 1956 by the extraordinary trumpeter, leader, composer, and perpetual catalyst–Miles Davis. Featured in this collection are such major artists as Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Charles Mingus, Sonny Rollins, Lee Konitz, and the original Davis Quintet: John Coltrane, Red Garland, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones. The expanse of Miles Davis's recordings for Prestige Records, the California analogue to New York's Blue Note, is huge. In terms of artistic development, the eight CDs in this box span Davis's development from tentative searching through the full bloom of his first great quintet, whose frontline boasted Davis and a young John Coltrane.
The Complete Studio Recordings 1972-1982, is the first complete Roxy Music box set to be released on CD. It includes each of the eight 'Roxy Music' Studio albums: Roxy Music, For Your Pleasure, Stranded, Country Life, Siren, Manifesto, Flesh And Blood and Avalon. Each of the studio albums have been taken back to their original form. New 2012 flat transfers from the original analogue master tapes ensure the audio sounds truer to its original LP sound. The box set is completed with two bonus discs of singles, B-sides and alternative mixes.
There is only one word that can describe Narciso Yepes' technique: extraordinary. He was one of the finest virtuoso classical guitarists of the 20th century and his DG albums are regarded as reference recordings. This 5 CD Original Jackets collection brings together all of his concerto recordings for the Yellow Label, recorded between 1969 and 1979. The repertoire ranges from Vivaldi's Lute Concertos adapted for guitar, to works written for Yepes and other leading guitarists of the 20th century.
Often named the supreme pianist of his era, Sviatoslav Richter (1915-1997) was a poet of the keyboard and an enigmatic, sometimes eccentric figure. These 24 CDs span three centuries of music – repertoire for solo piano and piano duo, chamber music, song and concerto – and bring Richter together with other great artists of his time. As the New York Times wrote, his pianism "combined astonishing technical mastery with bold, wide-ranging musical imagination. His control over the colorings of piano tone was incomparable."
Jacqueline du Pre's career, though tragically brief, coincided with a golden age of recording. This 17-disc treasury unites her entire EMI Classics legacy and includes – for the first time on CD – two Bach sonata movements from her 1962 debut recital for the label. Interpretations long recognised as classic are joined by further rarities, among them the Lalo Cello Concerto, recorded with Daniel Barenboim and the Cleveland Orchestra in 1973, and, from 1968, Strauss's Don Quixote under Sir Adrian Boult. This collection includes the very latest Abbey Road remasters of Du Pré's recordings in one definitive boxed set and offers the listener the ultimate listening experience with a fantastic clarity of sound and dynamic range. The collection includes a full-colour 32-page booklet detailing the life and art of Du Pré in both words and pictures as well as a timeline overview of her career.
Lorin Maazel's early recordings are the ones collected here and they are his finest work. Maazel was always a gifted conductor but as he aged he had a tendency to slow his tempi substantially, which I find conveys a somewhat diffuse and unfocused quality to his interpretations. His early work, however, is incisive, dramatic, beautifully articulated and well-textured. He extracts wonderful performances from his orchestras, with a special ability to make woodwinds and strings combine to magical effect.
Showaddywaddy had more UK hits in the 1970s than any other act…including Abba. From their winning appearance on an edition of 'New Faces', the 'Britain's Got Talent' of the day, to become runners-up in the series' 'All Winners Final', it took just a matter of months until the band released and secured their debut hit, 'Hey Rock And Roll', which reached #2 in the UK Singles Chart…
In tandem with the "Vivaldian ardour" (International Record Review) of conductor-harpsichordist Andrea Marcon and his Venice Baroque Orchestra, violinist Giuliano Carmignola – "a wonderfully accomplished player" (Gramophone) – has raised the bar on recordings of the Venetian Baroque master. This 7-CD set contains many of Vivaldi's most engaging concertos, enlivened with playing "full of character, energy and sensibility" (BBC Music Magazine) – including "a performance of the Four Seasons as fine as any" (ClassicsToday). It also features Carmignola and Marcon presenting the complete Bach Violin and Harpsichord Sonatas

The cost of public golf
The U.S. Open this week at Torrey Pines in San Diego represents another chance for the ancient game to bridge the historically wide gap between its blue-collar and white-collar cultures.
Torrey Pines is a true municipal course, a rare world-class facility that offers few restrictions beyond tight fairways and sloping greens – and most important, does not require a small fortune to play. If one of the game's signature events can be staged there, the theory goes, then golf must be far removed from its days as an exclusive hobby for the rich and famous.
The theory, though, has some major holes.
No doubt the game is more accessible than ever, with more public golfers and more public-access courses. Yet the majority of these public-access golf courses do not resemble your friendly local muni. They are privately owned daily fee courses that are often more expensive. Hence, the challenge the game confronts, and it's not likely to go away any time soon.
The average cost of greens fees for a course built before 1970, according to the National Golf Foundation, is $42.70. The average, however, for one that was constructed between 1970 and 1990 is $48.33, and $60.55 for those after 1990.
"The prices have gone up, especially on the weekends," said J.F. Sorbella, a member of the Rutgers University golf team who plays out of Maple Moore Golf Course in White Plains, New York. "So if you work a lot, it's hard to justify taking off to spend $50 to play a five-hour round of golf."
The problem for golf courses is, naturally, a financial one. With real estate in short supply and the economy lagging, many public facilities in recent years have simply been forced to gradually raise rates. Others have been forced to close. According to the NGF, 575 public courses have closed in the last decade.
This reality, of course, won't elicit much sympathy from golfers who are often seeking refuge from economic realities, not reminders.
"You need to have affordable golf courses, because if they're not affordable, you might as well turn them into soccer fields," said Sandy Tatum, a former USGA president. "Just because a course is public, that doesn't answer the question, because Pebble Beach is public, too. The question is do you have affordable access to golf, and on too many fronts, the answer is no."
The sheer volume of public-access courses these days would suggest the average golfer has reason to rejoice. According to a 2005 study by the NGF, only 27 percent of the courses in the U.S. are private, down from 62 percent about 50 years ago. Of 16,000 golf facilities, more than 11,000 are open to the public.
But numbers, as is usually the case, don't tell the whole story. The problem is that municipal courses have grown only slightly in recent years while privately owned daily fee courses now represent 58 percent of the market. There is a huge difference between the two. Courses owned by entrepreneurs, unlike government-subsidized city or state parks departments, are primarily interested in making money. Such is the American way.
The average daily fee course runs to about $10 more per round than the average muni. That may seem like a manageable amount, but in the future, a privately owned course will not hesitate to raise its rates. As far as new courses, most must start out with more expensive fees, or they won't be in business too long.
"The new courses are going to be priced higher because of the high contemporary cost of development," said Joe Beditz, the CEO for the National Golf Foundation.
At the same time, the old courses in the hands of municipalities have to deal with the same problems.
A prime example is San Francisco's Harding Park, which even after it was restored to tournament-worthy condition – it hosted the 2005 American Express Championship and will stage the 2009 Presidents Cup – is operating at a significant loss. San Francisco's six public courses, in fact, lose more than $1 million annually because of cumbersome union maintenance contracts. While one solution may be to outsource the operation of the courses to private companies, a more ominous possibility is that some courses will need to be shut down.
"It's a very complicated business process of running a first-class golf course, and municipalities are not structured to do that effectively," said Tatum, who is in favor of privatizing the operations. "If Harding Park was left as is, the whole economic value would go down the tubes. It's a very different world than it was 40 or 50 years ago. Golf is a very serious operation."
It's so serious that a greater number of municipalities around the country are turning their courses over to the private sector, a trend which is frequently met with resistance by those who fear these companies will be more concerned with their own bottom lines than the public's interest.
Not even Torrey Pines is immune to headaches these days, although the issues stem mostly from complications hosting the Open.
When the USGA, for example, pays Torrey Pines $5 million for hosting the Open, the bulk of that money will go to a group of local businessman, the Friends of Torrey Pines, that initially spent $3.4 million to refurbish the course. They city's own golf enterprise fund spent some $5 million to get the course ready, as well. However, as a consequence, since the USGA isn't reimbursing most of that money, the bill will be paid by, you guessed it, the average golfer, with gradually increased greens fees beginning in 2009.
Given Torrey Pines' prominent role this week, along with the USGA's goal of supporting public golf, some say the association is not practicing what it preaches. They argue the USGA should make sure any increase in Torrey Pines rates is marginal.
"I'm really disappointed with the USGA," said Paul Spiegelman, the founder of the San Diego Municipal Golfers Alliance. "We asked them to come in and protect golf and there's just no interest. They run ads celebrating public golf with guys who put their shoes on in the parking lot, and yet at a critical time, they refused to do anything about it. I think their PR campaign is nonsense. It's hypocritical."
The USGA, of course, doesn't feel that way. According to Pete Bevacqua, the USGA's Chief Business Officer, the organization actually has language in its contracts with host sites stipulating they can't raise greens fees exorbitantly in the years following an Open. Of course, the question becomes: What exactly is exorbitant? To some, the $13 increase set for 2009 certainly falls into that category.
Bevacqua claims the USGA is well aware that the health of golf across the nation depends on public golf. The only way to encourage increased participation is to make the game more accessible. Accessible means it must be financially viable, as well.
"If you look at how the population is growing," Bevacqua said, "there will be an increased need for affordable public golf courses."
Which brings us back to Torrey Pines. The USGA has made a point of saying the 7,643 yards South course was awarded the Open on its own merits. If it wasn't any good, Tiger, Phil and the others would surely be somewhere else this week. But there is an underlying message that speaks to the changing times.
"It's more than symbolism," said David Fay, executive director of the USGA. "It's an understanding and recognition that the majority of golf is played on facilities where you simply pay a fee. The profile of American golf has changed. So it makes sense to take the bellwether of United States championships and take it to United States golf courses where people can pay and go play without having to know someone."
Fay might have a point, but people are paying more than ever.
