Miller: The Rams risked a lot to acquire a coin flip that might not come up heads or tails
Last week, the Rams moved up in the NFL draft emphatically and historically, becoming the first team to jump from as low as No.15 to No.1 in a bold example of the franchise's unyielding decisiveness.
Then the Rams announced they hadn't actually made any decision at all.
They suggested they still could draft Carson Wentz or Jared Goff and which one really only matters because he might determine the fate of this entire operation for the next decade or thereabouts.
And now we all understand this move was even bolder than first thought.
I'm sure there are some outstanding perks to being an NFL executive. A good parking spot, for starters.
But there definitely are less dicey ways to make a living, like performing oral surgery on alligators.
The Rams just gave up six high picks to Tennessee – first-, second- and third-round selections in each of the next two drafts – for the opportunity to look absolutely ridiculous, the opportunity to pick one of two lottery tickets, neither of which could be a winner.
There are no guarantees in any sport. But, for the price they paid, shouldn't the Rams be assured of at least something?
Instead, what they bought was no better than a coin flip, and – get this – there's a chance this coin won't come up heads or tails!
So, are you sure you want to be the one making personnel decisions in a league so unpredictable and potentially cruel that a quarter can tumble from the sky and land balancing on its ridged edge?
The NFL's website labeled the trade a "coup" for the Titans and "a gigantic risk" for the Rams, and what's a more gigantic word than gigantic? Whatever that word is, double it and now we're getting closer to an apt description.
Of course, this is simply life in the high-wire NFL, where the need for good quarterbacking can become so desperate that someone – other than TMZ, I mean – is certain to turn to Johnny Manziel again.
If you want a less volatile job than football executive try being a sports columnist, where, if you're wrong, you do what I do: Make a joke that includes a word like weasel or underpants and hope everyone forgets you predicted greatness for Adam Morrison.
The majority of the estimated 1.4 trillion mock drafts currently available seem to have the Rams selecting Wentz. Indeed, there's a belief out there that the team already has made its choice and is only playing coy because that's how NFL clubs operate.
But ESPN's Adam Schefter reported last week that the Rams are leaning toward Goff, and Schefter generally is better connected than the ligaments in the knees of most NFL wide receivers.
Goff is considered to be the safer, more polished pick, much like Peyton Manning was in 1998. Wentz, however, is believed to have the higher upside, which is what everyone said in '98 about Ryan Leaf.
I'm not suggesting Wentz could be another Leaf. Let's be honest. There's probably only one of those.
But the point is, no matter how spirited they are at the time, these either/or quarterback debates can, like most recent Lakers games, eventually prove to be comically one-sided.
There genuinely is no way to be sure how any player will turn out once he enters the NFL, a fact underlined and placed in bold letters when it comes to the quarterback, the most mystifying position in all of sports.
Right now, I can tell you that Wentz has arms that are 33¼ inches long and he can broad jump 9 feet, 10 inches. But I have no idea if he can beat the Dolphins on the third Sunday of November or anybody else on the whatever Sunday of whenever.
Wentz played at North Dakota State, building his reputation against teams like Western Illinois and Southern Illinois and North Dakota and South Dakota. He once passed for three touchdowns against Incarnate Word.
But then Tony Romo played at Eastern Illinois before Dallas selected him with the No.1 overall pick.
Oh, wait, the Cowboys didn't even draft Romo and neither did anyone else. He turned out to be pretty good, although everyone's still waiting for Romo to win something that matters.
JaMarcus Russell once was the first player taken in the NFL draft. So was Tim Couch. The last quarterback selected No.1 to win a Super Bowl as a starter and not have the last name of Manning was Troy Aikman.
With the first choice in 2010, the Rams picked a player considered to be a solid quarterback prospect. Sam Bradford then won 18 of 49 starts, the Rams have tried six others at the position along the way and Bradford now plays for Philadelphia.
They'll be picking first again April28. That much, we all know. As for everything else, it's pretty much a coin flip – heads, tails or, God forbid, neither.
But that's just the NFL, life teetering on the ridged edge.

PRZOOM - /newswire/ - Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, 2015/06/22 - Nestopia is constantly endeavoring to make interior design easy and they are happy to launch the newly made Cost-Estimator tool integrated in the current website - Nestopia.com.
Nestopia understands that it is crucial to have an estimate at hand before you begin to go about planning your interior design project; therefore, this tool has been designed keeping in mind several considerations such as cost of labor, cost of building materials, cost of furniture, layout modifications, etc. About Nestopia Nestopia is an online platform for architects, interior designers and home owners. The Nestopia website offers architects and interior designers a platform to showcase their portfolios and uses a unique match making formula to pair home owners with interior design projects to suitable design professionals o the basis of parameters such as location, budget, scope of work, design style etc. What is Cost Estimator? The first step to any interior project is estimating how much the project will cost and setting a budget accordingly. Estimating costs includes taking into consideration labour costs, material costs etc and can be quite tricky. To make life simpler, Nestopia has come up with a unique tool and devised a simple cost estimator for all types of interior projects. Why Cost Estimator? Nestopias cost estimator takes into consideration both material and installation costs to give you a ballpark figure of how much your project will cost you. The costs provided on the estimator are regularly updated by industry experts to include newer materials and ascertain the current costs. On selecting the space and entering the square footage of the space, the estimator lists drop down menus of the various facets of the project allowing you to choose the treatments you would like to include. A simple select and deselect method of adding an interior design feature to your estimate also allows you to choose the optimal finish that matches both your aesthetic sensibilities and your budget. How it works? 3 Simple Steps: 1)Enter Basic Info a.Select Project Type (Design space like bedroom, kitchen, bathroom etc.) b.Select Approximate Area c.Select Budget Range 2)Select Specific Features (like Wall Finishes, Flooring, Furniture etc.) 3)Get Your Estimate How it will help Space Owners? For homeowners, this cost estimator can in an instant tell you how much your remodeling project will cost and what choices are available to you. Take for example a kitchen renovation project; when creating an estimate for kitchen remodeling, the estimator lists wall finishes such as paint, tiles and waterproofing with the associated costs for each. Thus if the project is running on a tight budget, the estimator will instantly tell you that compared to tiling; paint is the optimal wall treatment that matches your budget. How it will help Design Professionals? For architects and interior designers in India, Nestopias cost estimator puts away the need for a calculator and cumbersome calculations when creating initial project estimates. The estimator can be used to create project estimates for residential interior projects across the country keeping in mind a 10-15% and 20% reduction in costs for estimates of projects in B tier and C tier cities respectively. Working with a cost estimator ensures that a project has less chances of going over budget and thus both the architect or interior designer and the client are satisfied at the end of the project. You will truly enjoy using this nifty tool and estimate the cost of your interior design requirements simply with a few clicks!

Charging from notebook is very slow with only 500ma of current and you have to keep your SGT turned off, but if you use an double headed usb cable like the ones that come with usb hdd`s and dvd roms, you will get 1000mah as it is getting power from two usb ports. I have found an adaptor that will turn the male mini usb into a female standard usb for only $1.61 each, so you can plug your SGT into, it would be nice if we could find a single cable instead of the lash-up I have not tried this yet, if anybody can suggest a better way to charge the SGT from a notebook please let us know. Thanks John. $1.61 - USB A-Female to Mini USB 5-Pin Female Adapter - Cables & Adapters StarTech.com USB Y Cable for External Hard Drive - USB A to mini B - USB cable - 4 PIN USB Type A (M) - mini-USB Type B (M) - 1.8 m ( USB / Hi-Speed USB ) - black: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories
I've just got a Galaxy Tab and I don't seem to be able to charge via the PC, are you sure this works?
As i said in post one, I have not tried it yet, I have ordered one of the $1.61 adaptors, I should have it in 10-15 days, slow boat from Hong-Kong , then i will update this thread. I have heard that it will charge with one usb socket , but the tab has to be turned off before it will charge. A usb port is only 5v at 500mah , when the Samsung USB charger is 5v at 2000mah, four times at powerful. John.
Just tried with the Tab switched off and it did start charging from the PC. So it does need to be switched off to charge this way. Weird. Wonder why Samsung did this? I find this very odd.
The TAB has an 4000mah battery, it should take around 8-10hrs for a full charge from a notebook usb port at 500mah, but the notebook needs to be on, not in standby, unless it has an special usb port that stays powered when the notebook is turned off, or in standby , the special port normal has an lightning bolt icon on it, and it need to be enebled from the notebook bios, or an application in windows.
I have got this installed on my Laptop and it enables me to charge both my iPad and SGT no problems whilst they are swicthed on.. Download Asus AI Charger iPad Utility 18.104.22.168 Driver for Windows XP / Windows Vista / Windows XP X64 / Windows Vista64 / Windows 7 / Windows 7 x64 - Softpedia
I just bought a Samsung galaxy mini for my daughter (in the czech republic) and we are going to the States on holiday...how can i charge it? it seems i can charge from my laptop if i turn off the tab, but i don't know what a tab is...also does it matter if its 220 or 110 if i plug it into the wall? thanks

Folded horn construction
Hi, I have an interest in building a folded horn enclosure and have looked at "many" designs . My question is why do most have "square" cornered passage ways. I know some horn designs have smooth curved passages .Dosen't sound flow like water ,wouldnt rounded corners make an improvement in sound quality. I'm looking at making the S.P.Q.R. mod.2
Would adding "fillers" (triangular wedges) in the corners to smooth out the flow be worth the effort. Thanks for considering my question. C J Q |

By sheer luck, it may be that you've picked the right forum...
I believe that the answer is "build difficulty" of circular or ellipsoidal horns, and that most folded horns are used at lower frequencies where the folds are not very critical - the so-called "water in a fire hose" analogy. Most applications for circular or ellipsoidal cross-section horns use straight horn designs, IMHO. Chris |

Hi Guy's, thanks for the input. I can only understand a small portion of the technical discussions. But, I can apply some of what comes to me in terms broken down to my level. And I sincerly thank everyone for tollerating folks in my position.
My objectice is to switch a pair of fe126's to the SPQR2 enclosure. The spkr's are now in a BIB box (top port) I'm amazed at the low end sound they produce. I wanted to expirement with the new enclosure to see if there is an even lower end improvement. Including corner fillets during construction is not a big thing just determining radi is the question. Also I have a weakness for collecting vintage speakers from garage sales, thrift stores etc. I normally will take my lap top along and when I see something that maybe of value I google the item. I have half my garage at home filled with cabinets my wife thinks are just junk,,,LOL My ultimate plan is to flip flop speakers and enclosures. Sorry for going off topic. Thanks again CJQ |

I have (built) a pair of the factory recommended horns for the Fostex206. From what I have been able to understand-the many sharp edges in this design may be useful in filtering the higher frequencies from the rear wave-along with ease of construction. |

I don't know if it's the sharp corners or the change of direction forced on the pressure wave. It's the same in a baffle type car silencer. The pressure wave is forced around many changes in direction where the HF gets mixed up creating destructive interference.

Biophysical characterization of highly active recombinantGaussialuciferase expressed inEscherichia coli

Abstract Recently, the smallest bioluminescent protein (MW: 19.9 kDa), Gaussia luciferase (GLuc), has been isolated from the marine copepod Gaussia prince p s and has attracted much attention as a reporter protein. However, preparation of large quantities of homogeneous natively folded recombinant GLuc appears to be difficult due to its ten cysteines. Here, we report the biophysical characterization of recombinant GLuc expressed using a novel Escherichia coli expression system based on a cold induced expression vector (pCold). Using this system, a large fraction of the protein was expressed in the soluble fraction. GLuc, purified exclusively from the supernatant using nickel affinity chromatography, yielded a large amount of pure GLuc with a native disulfide bond pattern (Soluble-GLuc). Soluble-GLuc had a strong bioluminescence activity and it retained 65% of its activity after 30 min incubation at 95 °C. Soluble-GLuc remained fully folded until 40 °C, as assessed by circular dichroism; and the thermal denaturation curve was S-shaped, indicating a cooperative transition, with a midpoint temperature of 56 °C. These results indicate that both the structure and bioluminescence activity of GLuc remain stable at high temperatures, and they strongly suggest GLuc's potential as a reporter protein.

Design House Stockholm
The manufacturer Design House Stockholm is a kind of association for Scandinavian design, whereas its search for good ideas is globally oriented. Therefore the word "Scandinavian" stands for a more philosophical and esthetic perspective rather than a geographical or even national one. Though, most of the designers of Design House Stockholm actually come from Scandinavia – but there are also designers from Chile, France and Australia.

Japanese Camellia Oil, 100 ml
This extremely light oil is extracted from the leaves of the Japanese camellia tree and a superb corrosion inhibitor for tools of all kind. Camellia oil is not susceptible to resinification and may also be used for cleaning, sharpening and lubrication purposes. The oil contains a small amount of high-purity liquid paraffin. Thus the oil is water-repellent and shows an extreme resistance against acids e.g. hand sweat. It is non-toxic (paraffin is often used in the cosmetic industry) but not food-safe. Not suitable for direct contact with food and Japanese kitchen knives. For that purpose we recommend the pure Sinensis Camellia oil (No. 705280-282 and 705294).

Lady Dee was a gorgeous teen from the Czech Republic that came to visit us this week on Mike's Apartment. She was in town to see some friends and had heard of place where she could get good dick and free rent. It was a win-win for Lady. Right when she came in, we were taken back by her gorgeous looks. Victor was the man for the job and wasted no time exposing her sexy slim body. He ate that hot teen pussy, licked that tight ass and made Lady soaking wet. She got him back with a hardy blow job that only a Euro babe could deliver. Victor pounded that pussy deep and hard, and Lady rode his cock intensely in this wild sexfest. He made sure to finalize the deal by cumming all over her beautiful body. Rent paid!

Start slippin'.
Is it a slipper? Is it a moccasin? Is it a shoe? Does it matter? Nope, because the Moloa Men's Slipper from Olukai is too comfortable and chilled out to care about categorization. It shows your foot serious love with a soft nubuck leather upper, sheepskin lining, and merino-wool-covered EverFit footbed, and rocks a non-marking gum rubber sole for all-terrain grip (as long as all the terrain you encounter is around town or the house). If you're feeling extra lazy, you can fold down the drop-in heel for extra-easy slip-on style, so you can really make the most of those lazy Sunday mornings.

Oh so cozy...
and cannot take them off! Fit is true to size... can even wear socks if you feel like taking them outside. Stylish... I have worn them to a few dinner parties as well... lots of compliments on aesthetic. Can be worn as slip-ons with heel collapsed or a true shoe-style slipper. Rad slippers!
Worth the money!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
Best slipper I've ever worn.
Great House Shoes!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
These slippers are perfect. They are warm, easy to slip on and off, and fit well. Far more comfortable than the pair of Ugg slippers I had previously. I would recommend these to anyone in need of something to wear around the house. Where I am sure these slippers would be fine to wear on the streets, I just haven't done that.

Tech election 2010: having spoken to a range of political parties, ZDNet UK lines up their tech policies on the key issues for a side-by-side view
Labour: insists the Digital Economy Act allows for consultation, full parliamentary scrutiny and a robust appeals process.
Conservatives: welcome the Digital Economy Act; want to educate people about the "wrongs of illegal downloading".
Liberal Democrats: worry about the lack of safeguards in Digital Economy Act regarding technical measures such as account suspension and bandwidth throttling; oppose the act's website-blocking provisions.
Green Party: believes existing policy has favoured commercial interests over citizens' rights; supports online privacy and anonymity in all cases except where national security justifies a breach.
Pirate Party UK: opposes any monitoring of people's internet connections; wants all "secretive surveillance" to be a criminal offence.
UKIP: opposes the Digital Economy Act, based on the way it was hurried through the legislative process in the pre-election 'wash-up'.
BNP: supports copyright law but opposes a crackdown on downloaders — thinks uploaders should be targeted instead.
SNP: wants more collaboration with "global partners" to ensure harmonised laws; favours copyright enforcement but opposes the business secretary being able to amend copyright law without parliamentary scrutiny.
Plaid Cymru: did not answer this question.

The team at Wild Whales Vancouver are fantastic! They take conservation very seriously and will take as long as it needs to find the whales. The trips are very informative, but we were on the open boat that lacked proper facilities - a problem if you are out there for may hours.

Had an amazing day, we saw 6 humpback whales! We were 'mugged' by two of them (they came right up to the boat) which was amazing and our guide Ashley said she had never seen anything like it in 5 years :) would 100% recommend
Was hoping to see some orkas but didn't have any joy. We saw four active humpbacks instead which was great and we saw sealions. Was very cold I would recommend hat, scarf, gloves thick socks and lots of layers.
We had an awesome time! We saw two humpbacks!! Ashley was our Naturalist and she was awesome! She was very friendly and knowledgeable. They were very organized. The office staff was also wonderful at getting us info and helping us get to where we needed to be. We had a great time! Thank you Wild Whales for a great time!

What are some tips on protecting my security budget in a poor economy?
When times are tight, the executive managers begin to cut funding across the company. What are some important steps to take to make sure the budget for information security is still enough to keep data secure? In this security management expert response, learn how to get the funding you need.
It's a reasonable assessment to think that budgets will be cut. In tight economic times, even the security team...

has to tighten the belt and try to do more with less. Yes, even if not everything is done. So accept the fact and move forward from there.
The first key to surviving in a down economy is to focus on what's important. How do you know what's important? Ask the senior management team. Ask about the priorities of the business, pose your own questions and make sure they understand what can and can't be done with the resources you have. This will provide great insight into what can be put off and what can't. Once it's clear what absolutely needs to be protected, then start working scenarios to make sure it happens.
Before this meeting, it's a good idea to build three different funding scenarios. The first is what's necessary to really get the job done. This will probably not happen, but showing the fully funded option is good for comparison's sake. The second scenario should focus on what gives reasonable comfort that key assets will be adequately protected. This is the situation to push for, but don't be too disappointed if it doesn't happen. Remember, times are tough.
Lastly, build the worst-case scenario. This is the absolute minimum level of funding needed to protect critical assets. Also, be clear and detailed about what could happen if the security team doesn't get at least this minimum level of funding.
Bonus scenario: When presenting the above three scenarios to the management team, I suggest having a fourth scenario, a "pull the rip cord" scenario ready. This would be the smallest amount of money possible to allow for any chance of success. If the senior team won't give this level of funding, then it's time to look for another job, because it's only a matter of time before key data and systems are compromised, and it's not a good idea for your career to be there when it happens.

dc.description.abstract | The usage of organic materials in the manufacture of electronic polymer memory devices is on the rise. Polymer memory devices are fabricated by depositing a blend (an admixture of organic polymer, small molecules and nanoparticles) between two metal electrodes. The primary aim is to produce devices that exhibit two distinct electrical conductance states when a voltage is applied. These two states can be viewed as the realisation of non-volatile memory. This is an interesting development; however, there are a number of theories that have been proposed to explain the observed electrical behaviour. We have proposed a model that is based on electric dipole formation in the polymer matrix. Here, we investigate further the proposed model by deliberately creating electric dipoles in a polymer matrix using electron donors (8- Hydroxyquinoline, Tetrathiafulvalene and Bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene) and electron acceptors (7,7,8,8-Tetracyanoquinodimethane, Tetracyanoethylene and Fullerene) small molecules. Two types of structures were investigated (i) a metal/blend of polymer and small molecules/metal (MOM), device and (ii) a metal/insulator/blend of small molecules and polymer/semiconductor (MIS) architecture. A blend of polymer and small organic molecules was prepared in methanol and spin-coated onto a glass substrate marked with thin aluminium (Al) tracks; a top Al contact was then evaporated onto the blend after drying - this resulted in a metalorganic- metal structure. The MIS structures consisted of an ohmic bottom Al contact, p-type Si, a polymer blend (two small organic molecules and insulating polymer), followed by polyvinyl acetate and finally a top, circular Al electrode. In-depth FTIR studies were carried out to understand the observed electrical behaviour. An electrical analysis of these structures was performed using an HP4140B picoammeter and an HP 4192A impedance analyser at a frequency of 1 MHz. | en |

A WOMAN has been appointed skipper of 'steamers' on Windermere for the first time.
Dawn Jackson, 27, who joined Windermere Lake Cruises full-time nine years ago, has become 'Master of the Ship' following a rigorous series of interviews and practical tests set down by the Maritime Coastguard Agency.
It means she becomes one of eight staff who can take overall responsibility for the company's three flagship vessels MV Tern, MV Teal and MV Swan.
She will be working predominantly on Teal, which carries more than 530 passengers, and is the largest steamer ever built for Windermere.
A member of the National Historic Fleet, the vessel also had the honour of welcoming Her Majesty the Queen and H.R.H The Princess Royal on board just 12 months ago.
- Kendal 'waste' pop-up cafe proved popular
- Have you seen this woman?
- GARDENING: breaking up is not that hard to do
- Brewery wins top awards in anniversary year
Now, Dawn will oversee the ship's seven crew members and will ensure it runs smoothly on a day-to-day basis.
Originally employed as an ice cream seller, Dawn's dad also had a long career with Windermere Lake Cruises and she has been closely involved with the boats all her life.
She has worked her way up to the new role, working most recently as a Mate Engineer, and even had her wedding reception on board Teal last year.
John Woodburn, Operations Director for Windermere Lake Cruises, said: "It's always good to see staff working their way up through the ranks and of course, as the first ever female skipper for the 'steamers', it's a particularly important milestone.
"Her new role is well-deserved!
Dawn said: "I love working on Windermere, right in the middle of the Lake District, and I'm so proud to be doing the job I do.
"I don't think I'll ever get tired of being at the helm – the fantastic views, the people I work with and the fulfilment of helping to give visitors to the lake a great day out."

One of two men arrested in connection with a weekend armed robbery appeared in Douglas County District Court on Wednesday.
Jamal Dominique Pellis, 19, of Lawrence, has been in Douglas County Jail on suspicion of aggravated robbery, kidnapping and possessing stolen property. On Wednesday, District Judge Michael Malone reduced Pellis' bond from $50,000 to $20,000.
Lawrence police arrested Pellis and Chris Edward Spencer, 23, of Lawrence, on Sunday afternoon after an alleged armed robbery at an apartment in the 3100 block of Ousdahl Road. Police say two suspects knocked on an apartment door shortly before 2 p.m. Sunday and, upon entering, displayed a handgun to two occupants and demanded money.
Sgt. Max Miller of the Lawrence Police Department told the Journal-World that Pellis and Spencer were arrested about half an hour after a victim shared a description of the car they used to flee.
Spencer was released from jail on Tuesday on a $455 bond for failing to appear in municipal court in another matter. Charges related to the Sunday robbery weren't initially filed by the district attorney's office, but Assistant District Attorney Catherine Decena, who is leading the prosecution against Pellis, said she expected charges to be filed against Spencer within "the next two to three days."
Decena said that Pellis and the victims were not strangers and that Spencer had a relationship with one of them, although she did not say what type of relationship.
Pellis is scheduled to return to court on Jan. 29.

Psalm 129
Performance Notes:
Tune Information:
CAPTIVITY is a traditional Latvian folk tune; it is also known as KAS DZIEDAJA from the Latvian poem associated with the tune. The title CAPTIVITY is derived from its more recent use (especially in post-Vatican II Roman Catholicism) with Ewald Bash's paraphrase of Psalm 137, which begins "By the Babylonian rivers."
CAPTIVITY is a rather reflective tune, almost haunting in its minor mode. It has a stunning octave rise at the beginning of the second long line. The tune is suitable for either unison or part singing. Accompany with modest organ tones or strings (guitars).

Jasia's Carnival of Genealogy was the first step the genealogy community took in online socializing. The comments and emails generated from each edition of the carnival helped to develop friendships across the miles. Miriam's Scanfest kicked that up a notch. Now, with Facebook, we have the ability to develop significant relationships with others in the genealogy community. Yes, this can increase traffic to my blog or help me find a research cousin, but I personally look forward to just "talking" to others who understand and appreciate my fascination with dead relatives.
For the last couple of weeks I've been bombarded with friend requests and suggestions for friends. For the most part, I've just added them as friends and gone on my merry way. Now, it's time to start getting to know these people and developing a relationship that's more than a connection between one profile and another. Introduce yourself to one of these friends and learn more about that person. Then, do it again and again.
A couple of tips on socializing in the virtual world:
- Virtual conversations aren't always real time. You send me a note which I may not see for hours and then not respond until even later. Don't feel slighted if you don't get an immediate response to a message or inquiry. I may be at work, cooking dinner or whatever. Even if you can see that I'm online, I could be involved in something and don't want to be distracted. This doesn't mean I don't want to chat - just that I don't have time right this minute.
- Don't take it personally if someone isn't interested in virtual gifts or hugs or whatever.
- I enjoy the newsy chit-chat everyone posts, but please remember that Facebook is a social site not a research site. I love to hear about a new online archive or digital collection, but once your news item moves down the continual stack of news and notifications will anyone ever see that link again? In addition to your Facebook news flash, post it permanently somewhere it can easily be referenced anytime. For links to useful online resources, try the Genealogy Resources group at Diigo or USGenWeb or Cyndi's List or all of the above.

The Man Upstairs and other Stories by P.G. Wodehouse These
are totally non series short stories, of his classic, boy meets girl,
they overcome humorous obstacles, and go off into the sunset style.
He usually tried for an O. Henry twist in the ending. The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande A well presented argument for using checklists in our increasingly complicated world, particularly in the author's area of expertise, surgery. I use them for groceries and art fairs myself... The Cobra Trilogy by Timothy Zahn I guessed by the cover this was a military SF book, and it is, in part, about a man augmented to be a high tech weapon, but it passed over most of the military action in favor of how he had to cope when he finished with the space commandos. This is early Zahn, employing a lot of detail to make the story more believable, but in the process making it more wordy. |

Hot Rodding an Ashly X-Over
I've been working on cleaning up an older Ashley XR2001 crossover that I use for my mains to divert everything below 60Hz to the Sub. I've attached a schematic and have swapped out the opamps for LM4562s.
I also had to change the voltage regulators to + 15v. Here are some initial observations: Things are much quieter than before, but I'm getting a bit of 'rocky-spity' noise. Someone is not happy. Also, the sound is a bit brittle. I'd really like to either remove or at least improve the coupling caps (c20,40,45,50,73,76,77) Any other suggestions would by greatly appreciated. I know there are probably better choices for opamps, but they were available. Thanks, Bill

The TL072s listed on the schematic are actually 4560s...
The 2043s are correct. -Bill

Did you ever get more suggestions about this? I have an Ashly XR2001, too. While I love the ease of use and versatility, it is a tad noisy and the deep bass drive is not that great. I suspect the 20Hz high-pass is the culprit, but it could be power supply or caps. I'd like to lower the effective output to 10Hz or even 5Hz if the system stays stable.
Also, although I doubt I could hear it, all those potentiometers have to subtract something. Stepped attenuators instead? This is such a well-built and well-conceived device at such a bargain price, there should be lots of mods for it. Maybe everyone went digital, but I'm not ready yet. Paul |

Get rid of all the electro DC blocking caps, yuk! If you must have dc free output then keep the last ones in the chain (c77 etc.) but replace with something better like this:The Madisound Speaker Store
I've done a rebuild of several Rane xovers - opamps, removed dc caps, nude vishay resistors, etc. They went from sounding terrible to sounding quite good. Not exactly transparent but definitely usable in a good system. |

TL072 GBW (original opamps) was 3 MHz. That large difference says that the power supply bypass caps (if there even are any, as the schematic doesn't show power pins) may be too few and too far away from the pins to do their job. The LM4562 needs 0.1 uF or 0.01 uF bypasses quite close to the power and gnd pins to remain stable at high frequencies. If the sound is still funny, get a good scope and probe around looking for high frequency oscillation. Update My Dynaco Akitika GT-101 Audio Power Amplifier Kit |

I picked up the XR2001 and like it alot. but of course want to make it better. Any updates on this thread??
I am not electronically educated but can replace parts and am looking for guidance on what exactly (specific for sure) opamps and caps I can replace or remove to improve the sound. I plan to install opamp receptacles so I can plug and play. |

BTW, one of my favorite opamps is the LT1364 and I would like to try these in the XR2001 if there is a chance they will work. I've popped them in several DAC's and preamps and have yet to have them not work and sound better than OPA2134, LM4562, and others.

As an update on this thread I did replace the opamps as stated above, eliminated all coupling caps save 1, and recapped the remainder of the electrolytics. Sound is greatly improved from stock.

Olathe South scored four runs in the first, two in the second and one in each of the next four innings.
Montana Samuels had three of the Firebirds' six hits, including a pair of doubles.
"Olathe South is a very fine baseball team," FSHS coach Mike Hill said. "They swung the bats very well and they put a lot of pressure on us. We certainly did not play well, but they're a very good team."
FSHS State (7-7) will play host to Shawnee Mission Northwest at 5:30 p.m. Thursday.
