Description Accessories Files FAQs
The FT-897D is a rugged, innovative, multiband, multimode portable transceiver for the amateur radio MF/HF/VHF/UHF bands. Providing coverage of the 160-10 meter bands plus the 6 m, 2 m, and 70 cm bands, the FT-897 includes operation on the SSB, CW, AM, FM, and Digital modes, and it's capable of 20-Watt portable operation using internal batteries, or up to 100 Watts when using an external 13.8-volt DC power source.
The new FT-897"D" version includes coverage of the U.S. 60-meter (5 MHz) band, along with the 0.5 ppm TCXO Unit, at no additional charge!
Battery-Powered Field OperationThe bottom side of the FT-897 contains a "power source tray" which can accommodate up to two of the optional 13.2 Volt, 4500 mAh FNB-78 Ni-MH Battery Packs, for completely portable operation without any external power source. Maximum power output is 20 Watts (all bands) during battery operation, and with two FNB-78s you may expect up to eight hours of operating time (TX 5%, RX 5%, standby 90%). What's more, you can charge one of the FNB-78 Battery Packs while operating the FT-897 off the other pack—ideal for situations where solar or other power sources are available.DC 13.8V Mobile Operation
The optional CD-24 Charge Adapter provides the necessary voltage for charging, and it may be used in conjunction with an external 13.8 Volt source, or the optional PA-26 AC Adapter may be used to power the CD-24.Mobile operation, using the FT-897 as the cornerstone, is pure joy! The combination of the FT-897 and the ATAS-120 Auto-Tune Antenna System provides automated operation from HF through the UHF spectrum!Base Station Operation
Using an external 13.8 Volt power source, you get a full 100 Watts of power output on HF and six meters (144 MHz: 50 W, 430 MHz: 20 W).The FT-897's outstanding fundamental performance invites expansion into a full-featured base station. The optional FP-30 Internal Power Supply provides operation from AC sources, and the clamp-on FC-30 Automatic Antenna Tuner option expands the impedance range of the transceiver. Round out your station with the MD-200A8X Deluxe Desk Microphone and the VL-1000 Quadra System Linear Amplifier for world-class performance at home!Rugged, High-Output Power Amplifier
The power source tray of the FT-897 is designed to accommodate the optional FP-30 Internal Power Supply, allowing full-power operation from 100-120 V or 200-240 V AC power sources. The quiet switching-regulator design of the FP-30 is tolerant of AC input voltage variations, making it ideal for DX-pedition use! And to extend the impedance bandwidth of your antenna system, the innovative FC-30 Automatic Antenna Tuner option clamps onto the left side of the FT-897 in seconds!Achieving 100 Watts of power output from such a compact package is a difficult mechanical and electrical engineering task. On HF, push-pull 2SC5125 Bipolar transistors driven by push-pull 2SK2975s provide the 100-Watt power capability, while on VHF maximum efficiency during battery operation is yielded by 2SC3102 bipolar PA transistors. The rugged aluminum die-cast chassis provides a solid foundation for the heat sink for the power amplifier, with a total of almost 40 cubic inches of heat sink surface area available. With its thermostatically-controlled twin cooling fans, the FT-897 will stand up to the rigors of DX-pedition or home contest use, with dissipation capability to spare!Built-in Digital Signal ProcessingThe FT-897 includes a wide array of analog and DSP filters to help you dig out those weak DX signals on a crowded band! One-touch activation of the DSP filters, plus a convenient "DSP" LED on the front panel, enhance the ease of using the DSP. DSP Bandpass Filters, Noise Reduction,a nd Auto-Notch Filter circuits are included.Outstanding Features for the CW ExpertA wide array of features are tailored to the CW enthusiast operating from home or on an expedition!
Included are a CW Tuning indicator, CW Pitch control, Electronic Keyer with three memories and Weight Control, and selection of Full QSK or "Semi-break-in" operation.
For DX-pedition use, a unique "Beacon" mode allows you to send a repetitive message on, for example, six meters, to help others spot propagation to your location.
And if you're looking to upgrade your license class, the CW Trainer feature will send five-character letters and/or numbers via the speaker, so you can practice CW reception when the bands are dead!
Model Antenna Tuners FC-40
The FC-40 is a new, wide-range Antenna Coupler for the FT-450, FT-857, and FT-897 Series of Transceivers.
The FC-40 is a microprocessor-controlled antenna impedance matching network designed for use with all versions (original and "D") of the FT-450, FT-857, and FT-897 HF/VHF/UHF Transceivers. The FC-40 makes use of control circuitry inside the transceiver, allowing the operator to monitor and control operation of the FC-40, which mounts near the antenna feedpoint. Fully waterproof, the FC-40 may be mounted outdoors in exposed locations, and will handle a 100 Watts of transmitter power.
The FC-40 is designed for operation on 7 ~ 54 MHz, when using an 8' whip like the YAESU YA-007, or on 1.8 ~ 54 MHz when used with a random-length wire longer than 66'. Matching time is typically five seconds or less, and the required drive power is 4 ~ 60 Watts. The FC-40 sports a whopping 200 match-setting-point memories, for instant recall of the tuning settings.
Antennas ATAS-120 Active-Tuning Antenna System ATAS-25 The ATAS-25 is a manually-tuned portable antenna system ideal for the FT-817, FT-897, and FT-857 transceivers.

Are the 60-meter frequencies in my FT-897 off frequency?
Not at all.
Your attention is directed to ARRL's FAQ regarding 60-meter operation:http://www.arrl.org/FandES/field/regulations/faq-60.html
NTIA specifies channels in terms of "channel center" frequencies, where as amateur transceivers, in tuning a commercial channel, typically must be tuned 1.5 kHz lower than the specified "channel center" frequency. For example, for a "channel center" frequency of 5332 kHz, you tune a "traditional" transceiver to 5330.5 kHz.
So go ahead and try it. Set up an FT-817ND/857D/897D to the "5332" channel, and tune your FT-1000MP to 5330.5 kHz. Now transmit from the 817ND/857D/897D; you will find that you are precisely on frequency as you monitor on the other transceiver.
Note: If you program 5330.5 kHz into a "regular" memory from the VFO, it will be on the same frequency as the "5332 kHz" channel in the special 5 MHz memory bank, as the 60-meter bank (only) displays according to the "channel center" format.

Telltale Finale!
Chevrolet Performance, which signed on in 2013 as the new primary presenting sponsor for the world's biggest drag race – the NHRA U.S. Nationals at Indianapolis – had to be thrilled with that event's Pro Modified championship final last September. That marquee clash featured two rampaging 2013 Chevy Camaros with Mike Janis' supercharged model paired off against Rickie Smith's nitrous injected version. Just a scant sub-6 seconds later it was Western New York's Mike Janis taking the biggest win of his career by a razor-thin margin: 5.952 e.t at 241.41 mph to 5.955 e.t. at 241.37 mph. With that finish, both Janis and Smith remained in serious points contention for NHRA's coveted 2013 Pro Mod Drag Racing world championship.
The Lady is a Champ
Florida's Brenda Grubbs has enjoyed some huge success racing a Camaro since first coming on the Stock Eliminator scene in 1999. Driving a 396ci C/SA 1969 model, Brenda has an IHRA World Championship (2002), an NHRA Jegs All-Stars event win (2008), and an NHRA Lucas Oil Divisional points championship (2008) to her credit. Brenda's terrific success is also a tribute to her husband and crew chief Bill Grubbs, a retired USAF pilot who now flies for Delta Airlines. Brenda and Bill focus their drag racing efforts primarily at select NHRA Lucas Oil Divisional and national events in the east and southeast. During 2012 they added a second Camaro to their team effort – a 427ci-powered 1969 model aimed at the Super Stock class.
Black & White Tradition
Now-retired LAPD Detective Tony Foti (Paso Robles, California) is carrying the torch forward for an important community message that first started back in 1985. Foti, along with his wife, Bernadette, and son Ryan hit the trail in 2013 with an ultra cool 1968 Camaro SS, which is fully decked out in LAPD police colors and races in the B/Gas class within NHRA's highly popular Hot Rod Heritage Series. The "First-gen Cop Car" was built at Outlaw Garage (Santa Clarita, California) and features an alcohol-burning 547ci engine program by Jim Shewbert Industries. Foti's best run in the black-and-white 1968 is an 8.53 at 160 mph. Using the car, Tony is helping to move forward an important tradition of education to help address drug abuse and school delinquency problems in and around California. Throughout his career Tony has been involved with a series of cars within that respected program, which ranged from Super Gas to Pro Modified classes.
High Altitude Family Affair
Denver, Colorado, is home base to an impressive 1994 Camaro Z28 family-run racing effort. Ted Romero, a supervisor with the Denver Juvenile Probation department, has with his father, Bernie; wife, Rene; and son Jeremy been campaigning the car for five seasons. Ted reports that his Camaro was in fact first a Super Stocker, which he bought in the Houston area before taking it home and converting it to Stock Eliminator. The very clean car, which runs 10.60 e.t.s in C/SA trim features a 350ci LT1 motor with Voges cylinder heads. Ted also admits that his son Jeremy (who currently races a Junior Dragster) will most likely be groomed as the Camaro's future driver.

Outdoor programming is on the rise at university recreation centers, but according to the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association (IHRSA), helping members get active off-site also is a growing trend at for-profit fitness facilities.
In a recent report, IHRSA highlighted cross-promotion of non-club activities as one of the industry's key trends for 2011. This can include everything from running clubs to conditioning clinics designed to help members get in shape for golfing, skiing or other off-site fitness activities. Some clubs also are offering their members ways to take advantage of the fitness opportunities afforded by the great outdoors.
Clubhaus, in Fayetteville, AR, has offered various types of outdoor programming since it opened about 18 months ago. In fact, Lisa Ostrom, the club's fitness director, says proximity to a bike trail that wends throughout the city was one of the reasons Clubhaus chose its location.
Members and nonmembers can borrow bikes from the club to set out on rides that can go from urban areas through secluded wooded stretches and even out to a local lake. The club charges just $5 a month for the bike privileges, which covers their maintenance fees.
The club also offers a number of regularly scheduled outdoor group events, such as its Friday Night Fun Run. Members meet at the club, then set off on a 1-, 3- or 6-mile run and are treated to complimentary beer at the club on their return.
Clubhaus also has offered outdoor yoga classes in a local park and will soon kick off an outdoor boot camp training program.
Everything is open to nonmembers, but there is a fee for some of the group training activities.
Ostrom says that offering off-site activities helps the small club serve more members. Events such as the Friday night runs help capture nonmembers' attention.
The outdoor program helps keep members involved during the summer when they might otherwise stay away from the club, she says.
"When it's warm out, no one wants to be on a treadmill, but everyone likes getting outdoors," she says.
Getting members outdoors is the main objective for Colorado Athletic Club's (CAC) John Gillingham, too. Gillingham has coordinated the Club Outdoors program at the CAC's DTC location, in Greenwood Village, CO, for 14 years.
Gillingham works with a small committee on a bi-monthly basis to plan the program's schedule, which regularly includes activities such as trail running, mountain biking, hiking and snowshoeing. The club recently launched an outdoor boot camp-style training program, which takes place in a local park and is designed to condition members for outdoor pursuits.
The events are open for CAC members only, and there is no additional charge, although participants are responsible for providing their own equipment. Gillingham stresses safety and ensures members are aware of what skills they need for trips but also has each participant sign a waiver.
An average of 20 to 30 members attend each Club Outdoors event, but Gillingham says he once had a group of 54 members show up for what may have been the program's most popular regular event–a 90-minute stair-running workout at nearby Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre.
In addition to promoting the events in the club calendar and newsletter, Gillingham also sends out a weekly bulletin via e-mail to 130 members, about 65 of whom he considers to be core participants.
Gillingham says he thinks the outdoor program helps promote a social connection between other members that they may not always get just from working out in the club. And that, in turn, leads to increased retention rates.
"Some of [the Club Outdoors participants] have been with me for 14 years," Gillingham says.
Outdoor pursuits are great club offerings because they can be tailored to different levels of fitness and can turn into lifelong activities for participants, Gillingham says. And although he admits that CAC's location is particularly good for outdoor pursuits, any club can offer some sort of outdoor activities, such as circuit training in a local park.
"Just get outside and have fun," he says.

Mayor's race coming up in Norwich
Norwich - With the 2012 election in the rear-view mirror, Norwich now looks ahead to a mayoral election year in 2013.
Republican Mayor Peter Nystrom's four-year term enters its final year with many issues facing the city, including the failed effort to build a new police station, the still-shuttered YMCA building on Main Street and the stagnant economy.
Nystrom won handily in 2009 in a four-way race, defeating former Alderman and City Manager Robert Zarnetske, who ran on the Norwich for Change party line, current Democratic Alderman Mark Bettencourt and petitioning candidate, Taftville businessman Joseph Radecki Jr.
"I very much enjoy the work, the people, the members on council," Nystrom said. "At this point in time I don't see any reason why I wouldn't run. I do have the support of my family to run again."
Several Democratic city leaders offered differing answers on whether they would consider challenging Nystrom or another Republican candidate.
One leading possible candidate could be freshman Democratic Alderman Charles Jaskiewicz, who serves on the state Board of Education. Jaskiewicz was chairman of the Norwich Board of Education when he was named to the state board in 2011. He resigned from the Norwich board, but then ran for City Council.
Jaskiewicz said he is considering running for mayor, but has to talk to his family, supporters and others. Jaskiewicz said people have approached him and asked him to run.
"I respect people thinking of me as a good candidate," Jaskiewicz said. "I like getting things done. � I'd consider it after talking to my family and others. Is it a possibility? Sure. But I need to think of my family first."
Democratic Alderman H. Tucker Braddock, the retired former owner of AP Savage hardware store in Greeneville, called Jaskiewicz "a tough opponent." Braddock said he is unsure whether he would enter the mayoral race, like Jaskiewicz saying family considerations would come first. He said he has talked to people and received support for a possible run.
Braddock already has issues in mind for the coming race, including the police station, YMCA and economic development.
Braddock said the YMCA was a prominent issue early in Nystrom's term, but has fallen to the back burner. Braddock hopes to spark renewed interest in the vacant building, because the city's youth still need a recreation center and having an indoor pool would be an attraction for Norwich.
Four people mentioned as possible mayoral candidates said Monday they are not interested.
Bettencourt, the 2009 Democratic mayoral candidate, announced at the last Democratic Town Committee meeting that he would not run for mayor. Bettencourt said the campaign was tough on his family and doesn't want to go through it again.
Democratic Alderman Francois "Pete" Desaulniers, the council president pro tempore, presiding at meetings and functions in the mayor's stead, also dismissed any consideration of a mayoral campaign. Desaulniers recently was named chairman of the Norwich Ice Rink Authority in an effort to turn around that financially struggling city-owned facility.
"I just wouldn't be interested," Desaulniers said Monday.
Former Norwich alderman and Republican state Rep. Christopher Coutu, who last week lost a contentious state Senate race to Sprague First Selectman Cathy Osten, said he too is not interested.
"I'm focused on my family," Coutu said. "The last five years have been great serving the people. Now is time to focus on the rest of my life."
If anyone asked former Democratic Mayor Benjamin Lathrop four months ago his answer would have different than it is today. Three months ago, Lathrop was hired as president of the Greater Norwich Area Chamber of Commerce, a full-time position Lathrop loves and said he is very busy.
Lathrop said he appreciates that so many people asked him to consider a second run for mayor after he decided against seeking re-election in 2009.
"I said before I took this job that I would consider running for mayor," Lathrop said. "It's unbelievable the number of people who have asked me if I would consider running for mayor. If I could do it and keep both jobs, I would consider it. No, you can't do it justice."

Power analysis for GGMM with distal o...
Mplus Discussion
Growth Modeling of Longitudinal Data
Silvia S Martins
posted on Tuesday, October 10, 2006 - 12:24 pm
I'm a new M-Plus user.
I need to estimate power and sample size for a GGMM with a distal outcome. I've already run a montecarlo simulation using the values from my original dataset for the intercept and slope variances,the actual means for the different classes, the threshold starting point and the class prevalence expressed as a logit. What I want to get is the power analysis for a logistic regression of a binary outcome variable on a categorical predictor (i.e., class membership). What do I need to do after the montecarlo simulation to actually get the power and sample size for different Odds Ratios?
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Tuesday, October 10, 2006 - 5:52 pm
Ex 8.6 has a distal categorical outcome u. On your Mplus CD, the corresponding Monte Carlo setup is included. You see there that the logistic regression relating u to the latent class variable c is handled by the threshold for u varying across the c classes. So with 2 c classes, that is the same as logistic regression with a 0/1 dummy predictor, shifting the logit intercept for u (the logit intercept is the negative of the threshold). It sounds like you want to know the power of rejecting that the 2 thresholds (the log odds) are the same. That can be done using Model Constraint and defining a "New" parameter:
t1t2= t1-t2;
where t1 and t2 are parameter labels for the two thresholds. Then the last column of the Monte Carlo output gives you the percentage rejection of t1t2 being zero, which is the estimated power.

Dear Dr. Muthen:
I am trying to compute power for a GMM with count outcome. The outcome takes value 0, 1, 2,...6. I have prior data to estimate intercept and slope within each latent class. In the Monte Carlo simulations, I see the saved replication 1 outcomes take value 0, 1, 2,..., up to 100. How do I restrict the outcome to be less than or equal to 6? Do I need to provide cutpoints for the simulation? Thanks.
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2007 - 8:21 am
It sounds like you are using some but not all of the parameters from your real data as population values in your Monte Carlo study. If you used them all, then I think you would obtain the range of the variable that you want. The CUTPOINTS option is only for covariates. See Example 11.7 where real data are used to obtain population values for a Monte Carlo study.
yuanjia wang
posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2007 - 8:44 am
Thanks for your reply. I did follow Example 11.7 and saved the output using "Estimates=datafile". I see in the 'Savedata' option there are "TYPE", "FORMAT" options. Is there anything else I should save?
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2007 - 9:19 am
Did you then use datafile with the POPULATION and COVERAGE options in the Monte Carlo analysis? That is Step 2 of Example 11.7.
yuanjia wang
posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2007 - 9:25 am
Yes, I used both POPULATION and COVERAGE options, and referred them to the same file saved in the step 1.

Drs. Muthen,
I have a basic growth model as in the User's Guide's example 6.1. However, I also have one predictor variable (x1) that is a binary "yes/no" variable thought to predict the intercept and slope. When trying to run a monte carlo study, I add the following syntax to, presumably, indicate that x1 is a binary variable with a cutpoint of 0: cutpoints = x1(0);
However, I get the following error that I'm hoping you can explain:
*** ERROR in Montecarlo command
Only x-variables may have cutpoints in this type of analysis.
Cutpoints for variable X1 were specified.
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Monday, March 31, 2008 - 2:31 pm
It sounds like you are mentioning the mean and variance of the variable x1 in the MODEL command. They should be mentioned only in the MODEL POPULATION command.

A sizable percentage of Americans don't expect to stop working -- ever.
Continue Reading Below
That's according to the 2011 Risks and Process of Retirement Survey Report from the Society of Actuaries, which found that 35% of pre-retirees surveyed in 2011 do not expect to ever leave the workforce. That is up from the 29% of pre-retirees who reported the same in 2009.
Financial concerns among retirement worries
For the vast majority of pre-retirees who don't expect to retire, remaining active and engaged during their senior years is of importance. Of the 35% not expecting to retire, 89% said staying active was one reason to remain working.
However, financial concerns also weighed heavily on the minds of many pre-retirees. The survey found 45% of those not expecting to retire believe they will be financially unable to do so.
Pre-retirees not expecting to retire also gave the following reasons for being unable to stop working:
- The need for additional income: 87%
- The need to preserve or increase assets: 80%
- To maintain benefits offered through employment: 61%
Actual retirement ages differ from expectations
Although many pre-retirees have a negative view of their retirement prospects, their expectations differ significantly from the reality of when older workers are actually retiring.
"There is a big gap in the age at which pre-retirees expect to retire and actual retirement ages of those who have retired from their primary occupation," said Carol Bogosian, an actuary and retirement expert, in a written statement issued by the Society of Actuaries."This may be partially due to involuntary retirement and health problems."
In the Society of Actuaries report, half of pre-retirees say that will wait until at least age 65 before leaving the workforce. Only 12% felt they would be able to retire early. However, 51% of retirees surveyed for the same report said they left employment before age 60.
Those findings echo a similar report published by the MetLife Mature Market Institute earlier this spring. That report found the average retirement age for those born in 1946 was 59.7 for men and 57.2 for women.
"Many of the Boomers weathered the recession well and have been able to stop working," said Sandra Timmermann, director of the MetLife Mature Market Institute, in a statement issued with the institute's findings. "Half of all Boomers feel confident that they are on track or have already hit their retirement goals."
While it's unclear whether this pattern of early retirement will persist, the fact that many baby boomers have been able to retire early may suggest to current workers that their retirement prospects aren't as bleak as they seem.

Frequently asked
a speeding ticket be beat? Yes,
all tickets can be beat. But, it is better to do a plea bargain instead of taking
your case to trial.
is a plea bargain? A
plea bargain is a method by which our office will negotiate with the prosecutor
what we are going to enter a plea of guilty to on your behalf.
court is during the day and I
work. What now? Dont worry, part of the service we
provide is that we go to court for you so that you dont have to.
wasnt speeding but its just my
word against the cop. What chance
do I have? Actually,
its NOT your word against the cops. It is the states burden to prove the case
against you beyond a reasonable doubt.
should I hire a lawyer when
just paying the fine will cost less? Whenever you hire a lawyer for a speeding
or traffic case, its not the fine you are trying to defeat but the insurance
increase that comes with pleading guilty to a moving violation. By avoiding the
moving violation conviction you avoid paying thousands by preventing insurance
increases. That is the real value of our services.
there any hidden costs
associated with a traffic ticket? Yes. Often times when you plead guilty
to a moving violation that the conviction triggers further fines from the NYS
DMV, called assessments. One common assessment occurs whenever you accumulate
6 points from 1 or more conviction within an 18 month period. The minimum
assessment is $300.00, and goes up in $75.00 increments per point from there.
sent my ticket in with a guilty
plea and now my license is being
suspended. Is it too late to do
anything to stop it? This is a common problem. Certain
convictions trigger license suspensions and / or revocations. People do not
realize it until it is too late. We have a service whereby we can reverse a
conviction and thereby avoid the pending suspension.

been charged with
auto crime, call

Success stories
One of the best decisions I made to kick start my career as a pharmacist
|"Studying in Bredin is such a great help. I have learned a lot, especially when it comes to Pharmacy Practice.

All the things that we need to know and learn is covered by the great instructors at Bredin" - Faran Plafa
Great study tips and teaching tools!
|"I found the course well structured. The instructors were well prepared and used lots of teaching aids to help us understand the topics. Studying was made much easier because the instructors emphasized on the most important areas/topics that will help us succeed not only on the exams but in the future as well."

The hands on experience gained during the practicum has prepared me for employment in Alberta."
I am now a Registered Pharmacist

HGTV fabrics, fabric covered boxes...

I had seen the cute fabric covered boxes somewhere, maybe pinterest. I love them! I hadn't seen the HGTV fabrics at Joann's yet. Thanks for sharing that.
We have these great sturdy smallish boxes at work that some of our pipe fittings come in. (PVC pipe) They are just the right size and clean so they are great candidates for the covering. I'm going to Joann's ASAP!!!

These tips to much helpful for party hope I am post for my friend These boxes aren't necessary as most movers will wrap your mattress in plastic bags which are much cheaper to purchase. However, boxes will keep your mattress from being punctured or if it's being stored for a while, it'll protect it better from outside forces. Mattress boxes come in many sizes from cribs to twin to king-size.

6/17 Back in the West
It's different facing the West teams now and when I was with the Rangers. It's different when you face a team 19 times because they figure you out, then you figure them out and it goes back and forth. It seems like they keep a steady rotation and you're facing guys over and over again and you pick up on things as a hitter. It's the same thing with the Angels and Mariners. It's a division that keeps getting better and better. The AL East is the beast, they'll always be No. 1. The Central with the Twins and Tigers will be tough. I believe a champion will come out of the West very soon. It looks like the Rangers are doing a good job and they're not far behind the A's with the young leadership over there. There's guys like Mark Ellis, and I call Kurt Suzuki a veteran — it seems like he's been around for 10 years. They're just a tough team and it's shown in the games we've played against them.
It's different facing the West now since I've been facing National League pitching. In my mind, sometimes I have to get back to that American League style. For example, Gio Gonzalez has a great fastball but on 2-0, he threw me a changeup. I've been getting fastballs on 2-0. It's a little different and you have to change your mindset. I'll be happy when we finish these games and I get back to National League style.

Bird!!!! We love having you as a Cub! I appreciate the way you play the game… all out full speed all the time. I always appreciate a major leaguer who runs hard to first all the time no matter what. I coach high school baseball and it is hard to instill this idea into my players' heads because they see so many big leaguers who non-chalantly jog out a ground ball. Thanks for representing baseball (the best game in the world) the right way. I also enjoy watching your high flying act in the outfield. You're like a vacuum out there sucking up everything with your glove. Keep it up and push the team for a late Oct. run.
Hi Marlon!
I love the interleague series thing. Our whole family is going to be up in Seattle cheering you guys on from the centerfield bleachers next week! After that some of us are going to head up to Vancouver BC to take in the sights and sounds. Talk about cool! Let me tell you something else about cool. My brother-in-law Andy was playing third and I was playing short on Sunday and the opposing team's shortstop…who is a big, young guy…tells our pitcher (our father-in-law) to watch out because he's going to hit it up the middle. Well, next pitch he dang near hits him in kneecap with this line drive. As the batter came into second I set him straight about hitting it up the middle…that's the cool part. He acted like a punk, but I think he has a good heart somewhere deep down. I'll bet that Starlin Castro is your first teammate to have a name that rhymes with yours, huh? Also, in your next post, could you give a shout out to my brother-in-law Andy? He's a big fan (now). He's playing through some pain in his knee so he could use a pick-me-up. Keep flying high, Byrdman.
I am a long time Cubs Fan, watching as many games as I can on TV. Our family has tickets to all three games in Miami in Sept. You have made such a difference as a player and teammate. Thank you for the love of baseball you show every time you take the field. Thank you for the enthusiasm you pass on to your teammates. You are awesome Marlon Byrd. Thanks for all you do to make baseball and the Cubs all they should be.
Marlon, You have delighted Cub fans from the first game. There was times that the only bright spot was your performance, as sandberg would say, you play the game the right way. I hope you finish your career with the Cubs. I have place my votes for you to make the Allstar squad. Let's start are push to Post Season with today's WIN!
hey byrd.
you are a great player. we were excited to see you come to chicago. i wish you the best. keep playing hard, keep a positive mental attitude. you are a great player. shine baby, shine. firstname.lastname@example.com drop me a line… my family loves the cubs and the sox. lets all meet up in 2010 WS… you are doing well, keep it up, we need u
and thanks to greg for sticking around, he's my hero
I hope you get the chance to read some of these comments. Just wanted you to know we appreciate how you play the game. You're the kind of player that everyone wants to have on their team. Glad you're a Cub.
For all you cubs fans you can coe to this website to watch live gameday games!!!!!!! http://gamechanger.io/team-55426
I must say i haven't followed your blog, but i think i'll start. its nice to finally have a true CF that has speed and power, that's actually producing consistenly (unlike corey patterson and felix pie). Here's to hoping Hendry keeps you around for awhile.
You are the man! I have been a Cubs fan for 35 plus years now and you are my favorite Cub because I love how you leave it all on the field with every game, ahead or behind, win or lose. No one out hustles you or out works you, and that's all us fans ask for. You are a great role model for my 6 and 8 year old boys who are just now learning the game of baseball and I wanted to thank you for the way you play the game and let you know you are appreciated and it doesn't go unnoticed!
I have been a Cub fan since 1965. I watched Ron Santo, Billy Williams and Ernie Banks play together. As great as they were, they could have used you in center. And lets see, maybe Andre Dawson in right. What a team that would be. Maybe we could have four outfielders or a designated hitter for this dream team because I sure would hate to lose Soriano.
I hope you stay with the Cubs and become a Cub Icon like Ron, Billy and Ernie.
Marlon we are sooo happy u are a cub. I hope you are a cub until you retire. You are my favorite player and i love watching you even if were winning or losing you always play a great game. You have such a positive attitude and Jim Hendry did a great job finding a player like you.
I'm just back in UK from a great weekend in Chicago – great because I was sat in Rightfield bleachers, enjoyed the sun (though getting drenched after friday wasn't a highlight) and loved your pre-game ritual… though you are worthy!
Also, great to see you getting Fonsi to loosen up a bit too. I'm not sure of your sign language in the outfield, but it certainly put a smile on his face each time – now please just infect your teamates with your smile and work ethic!
Reed has a successor who truly hustle(s)likereed – I just hope you enjoy playing for us as much as he did.
See you in a month for the Phillies/Astros weekend.

Starbucks reported quarterly earnings that met analysts' expectations on Thursday but revenue was slightly lower than anticipated. The shares fell in after-hours trading.
The coffee chain reported reported fiscal first-quarter earnings rose to 57 cents per share from 50 cents per share a year earlier.
Revenue increased 10 percent to $3.8 billion from $3.44 billion a year ago.
Analysts had expected the company to report earnings excluding items of 57 cents a share on $3.84 billion in revenue, according to a consensus estimate from Thomson Reuters.
The company said it posted record results in the quarter despite "significant and unexpected cost pressures."
Global same-store sales growth rose 6 percent in the quarter, helped by solid growth in its U.S. retail business and strength in China and Asia. Net revenues for its China and Asia business rose 28 percent, aided by an 11 percent increase in comparable store sales.

Reflex Action (2001)
July 04, 2010, 08:12:30 AM »
Hi everybody, I'm going to talk about a movie that you have probably never heard of (at least I will try).
The movie is called Reflex Action. Google it. Do you find anything about a movie in the first page? I don't. Also I have only seen a single video on the net about this masterpiece. Anyway, this movie was shown on TV in one of the sattelite channels of my country. It explained the plot as: "a young man returning from war starts fighting against people who try to buy his family's lands" (something like that). The site flixter (which contains that single video) gives this information:
"Emotionally scarred after a disastrous covert Gulf War mission, Special Forces soldier Quinn Taylor (Michael Baldoz) returns to his home on the Arizona-Mexico border. To his dismay, Taylor discovers that his father plans to sell their land to a drug lord (Richard Lynch). Determined to interrupt the sale, Taylor soon finds himself in a war with a powerful drug cartel, which threatens not only his family but the security of the nation."
Yeah. Let's see this in detail.
The movie begins with Quinn and 3 other Special Forces guys in the middle of some desert. Apparently the single building that's on the desert contains warheads and they have been sent to destroy them. Apparently also that this very important objective is completely left unguarded since we don't see a single living soul around except those four. Anyway, The team is organised as follows: Quinn and his black squadmate go to the tunnel networks under that building (networks that I have no idea about their purpose) with some kinds of skate boards. A member of the team has night-vision goggles and he scouts the desert landscape from afar and the team leader has a magic map which shows an orange dot moving around in an empty black space which only he can interpret. Quinn and his mate go around talking about nonsense and planting C4 charges. Then suddenly the leader starts seeing another orange dot appear and tells them that an enemy soldier is incoming. Either they don't hear him or the Iraqi soldier is a ninja (and he's dressed like one and even if we only see around his eyes it's obvious that he's not an Arab), but he shoots the black operative. Then Quinn comes with his skate-board and shoots him. Then suddenly a tank appears outside. The guy with the goggles loses the tank (the tank hides behind sand dunes and silently moves toward him, how the hell doesn't he hear it is beyond me) and with horror understands that the tank appears behind him. Oh no! It's a blatantly "made in China" plastic toy tank! Our guy is freaked out by the tank and tries to run but the (extremely blurry) toy moves towards the screen and we understand that it crushes him. At the meantime, C4's are about to detonate. The black operative isn't dead yet but he urges Quinn to leave him. Quinn refuses and blabla. Then he accepts. At that moment the tank has crushed the goggled guy and fires a shot to the leader and makes him explode. Quinn skate-boards while the C4 explode behind him and the title REFLEX ACTION comes to the screen with all the explosions. Disastrous covert op indeed.
Cut to somewhere like Mexico border, Quinn walks with his army bag towards some houses. His father and brother are there. They greet him. Then his brother Lee gets angry at him because he left that poor place and went to the Gulf War as a Special Forces soldier which apparently is ten thousand times easier than living in a place like that and working at an (empty) mine. Quinn gets angry at him, everybody is angry and unhappy, there's some subplot involving the servant girl which is unnecessary and only serves a purpose towards the end, things like Quinn and Lee working in the mine happen.
Cut to some kind of slaughterhouse, a guy (drug cartel's second-in command. I think.) shows drug-filled bags in boxes and explains things to the people around him. Then he goes to talk to his boss. Things happen. Then the drug guys find that the drug can be transporte via the Taylor mine. So they go the taylor place and threaten them and all that stuff. The father wants to sell, Quinn doesn't,... Briefly, waht happens is that the drug army attack them, fights ensue (with extremely ridiculous action), the father takes a couple of dynamites and blows himself up inside the mine because... I don't know. They also learn that the girl was helping these drug guys because they have her sister.
The second-in command goes to his boss, tells him that he's very rich and that it's time for him to become the boss. The boss is about to object but he's shot because the second-in-command has bought out the boss's men.
Anyway, the Taylor brothers start training to fight because the new boss tells them that they have four days or so to leave the mines. They train, running a little bit, doing 3-4 push-ups and practicing extremely stupid martial arts moves. The big day arives. The boss deploys his army (guys in black suits using AKs and wearing some kind of rectangular black googles with two small lights at the sides. I have no idea what these are). The brothers take up revolvers and go the mine. Then things happen. Everybody starts shooting at them, nobody runs out of bullets (you can fire 20 shots from a revolver in one single take and that's no problem), they go again in some kind of skate-board things, they run inside the caves while shouting strangely, they defuse a bomb in the last minute only to see that the bomb gets reactivated because it's broken (!!!) and they save the girl's sister. My favorite scene is where Lee and a guy both run out of ammo (after shooting like 100 rounds), the guy starts reloading, lee runs towards him, the guy suddenly has ejected the magazine that he had put and starts reloading again, which allows Lee to jump on him and knock him out. Yeah.
The brothers get both wounded after saving the girl and they think that they're not going to make it. But they do. At the meantime the boss has loaded his truck (and he has only one man with him, since the entire drug army has been killed, which doesn't bother him at all) and is about to go. Quinn picks up a revolver who only has two bullets (Mystery!) and starts chasing the truck. The boss is p**sed, and starts shooting 10000 rounds from his AK. Quinn shoots once at him but fails. Then he starts climbing a water tower but is wounded during the climb. When he reaches the top, the boss is very angry and starts taunting him and does not listen to his man's advice to leave. Quinn gets up, both men take aim simultaneously, but Quinn shoots first, the camera suddenly zooms to the truck's engine and the truck explodes.
They get in the newspapers and stuff, everybody is happy, they talk meaninglessly, and Lee is seen going to the army. The end.
Why did I leave out so much of the middle of the movie? because I don't remember a thing abou that part, because nothing worthwhile happens at these parts. The beginning and the final war are gold.
I say, find this movie if you can (I will try to obtain it somehow), and share it. It deserves to be more popular. It was the most "B" movie ı ever saw on a channel that specializes in
showing b-movies. It was that good.
Since I can't post links, you should write "flixster movie reflex-action-videos" and then click "view larger"
(note how angry he is at the "frustration" scene)

Proposed Canon
Obedience is one of applications of Natural Thinkamancy. All units are subject to Natural Thinkamancies: Obedience, Loyalty, Duty, and others.Erf-b1-p084a
Obedience means that units are compelled to obey orders. However, depending on the unit's relative Loyalty or intelligence, they may voice their disagreement or outright disobey the orders if they believe the order goes against higher orders or their Ruler's interests Erf-b1-p005. Disobedience may cause the unit to disband, but a clever and resourceful unit like Wanda can carry out a lot of stuff under the table.
Orders enforced by Obedience are not limited to ones involving strategy and combat. In fact, nearly any command comes under its purview: A superior can order a unit to laugh, cry, slap themselvesErf-b1.5-p035, strip naked, or anything else they can imagine. The idea that abusing an underling's obedience might be wrong is an alien concept to the people of Erfworld. Erf-b1.5-p044

Apple does. I have built my own for the Sun's (at least those that are not under NBD support). Disks are the obvious thing. We have had several (3) Power Supplies fail and in one case we had both bad RAM and a bad daughter board in a 4600. This is with machines that range from the v60 (PIV 3.0ghz) to the v20z(2.4ghz opteron), to the x4100(2.6ghz opteron) to the x2200(2.6ghz opteron) to the x4600(2.8ghz opteron). We have also had a couple of issues with MB's (actually usually a builtin controller on the MB, often SCSI ). Our real problem now is heat related failures on our 2004 v20z machines. These machines run hot, our raised floor machine room can't keep the upper nodes in the rack cool and we have had several failures that appear cpu/MB related in the past year after several heat events. I am hoping to get these machines replaced as soon as possible since the use as much power and require as much cooling as newer machines with dual dualcore or dual quadcore processors. NBD support can make sense for certain systems (particularly systems that are managed for another department). I like to have it and some spares for my machines. Mike
