‘Earthfest’ to be held on Common, May 8
Three high school seniors have organized an event they are calling “Big Blue goes green,” an Earthfest for Cohasset, event as part of an independent study. Megan Richardson, Jenny Magruder and Emily Bertovich have been working since January to put all the details in to place.
ESP EC-500s or Fender Strat/tele?
which would you prefer?
which would you prefer and for what genre?
i like the esp myself i don’t like strats or teles…
why everyone in world this likes basketball ?
personally i hate basketball. it’sss just too overated, and boring. and another thing…not to be racist but just curious…. if the person who invented basketball is white… how come a century later, why most teams are like black?…
and i see black people like bball alot, why is that?
just curious
but in general, why does everyone likes basketball?
wow, I can tell your just beyond ignorant….I dont even know where to start.
need advice dropping ethernet cable in my wall?
i’ve never dropped a cable before. what supplies do i need? do i need to a switch box or can i just screw a jack plate into the wall? i need any and all advice
The Ethernet cable should be a cat5E. It can be fished in an inside wall with a string type to a weight such as a screw or nut dropped down between the wall.
Use a wire to hook the pull string out of the base of the wall.
Tie the Cat5E cable to the string and pull it through. The cable should be terminated on a RJ45 Ethernet female jack.
You may need a special punch tool to terminal the 8 conductor to the wall or baseboard jack.
Colours are blue,orange,green,brown in that order
How do I get a “jazz” like tone on my guitar?
I have a Fender Squier Strat and a Fender Frontman 15G amp.
It has Drive Volume, Treble, Middle, Bass, Gain and a clean or overdrive setting. What should be the settings on my guitar and the amp for a “jazz” or “big band” guitar tone
With your guitar and amp, you are going to want to drop the highs; I suggest you use the “1″ or “2″ Pickup Switch position. You want the Neck Pickup or the neck and middle. Roll the tone back to 1-4 on the Strat; depending on how much high end you want coming through. If you are playing older style big band, and just comping chords, you won’t need much in the way of Drive or Gain. You want a mostly clean tone, but like I said, run it all at mid levels, and roll down any spurious highs to get a mellow tone.
Using Brainstorming to Boost Your Career
Many men won’t let the subconscious work for them. They are afraid of their subconscious. The subconscious is somehow unmanly, a woman’s mind. Others feel it is frivolous, not at all gray flannel enough for their business. Still others believe it is a will-of-the-wisp thing that can’t be trusted, that it will somehow betray them, and that it most certainly can’t be trained to work in the everyday business world.
They are woefully wrong. Most businesses and professions are guided by the landmarks erected by men who have made brilliant use of their creative minds. The subconscious is crucial in the process of brainstorming.
Harley J. Earl, styling chief of General Motors, once said, “If a particular group appears to be bogging down over a new fender or grille or interior trim, I sometimes wander into their quarters, make some irrelevant or even zany observation, and then leave. It is surprising what effect a bit of peculiar behavior will have.
“First-class minds will seize on anything out of the ordinary and race off, looking for explanations and hidden meanings. That’s all I want them to do — start exercising their imaginations. The ideas will soon pop up.”
The subconscious mind isn’t a logical creature which proceeds from point one to point two to point three in a straight line. It’s an illogical character who skips from point one to point eight to point three to point seven, trying all sorts of unusual combinations, making use of every observation and stimulus to create new solutions.
This is its importance. It is creative. The ideas that make a difference are the product of our creative minds.
One European scientist made a study of his fellow workers and found that 75 per cent had made their most important discoveries when away from the job. The history of scientific progress is studded with cases which back him up.
For example, in 1920 a Canadian surgeon, Frederick Grant Banting, worked all day long on a lecture on diabetes. The more he read about the disease the more confused he became. At last he gave up and staggered to bed.
Then in early hours of the morning he suddenly sat up, turned on a light and wrote: “Tie off pancreatic duct of dogs. Wait six to eight weeks for degeneration. Remove residue and extract.”
That idea, shot forth by his subconscious in the middle of the night, led directly to the discovery of insulin.
Every profession and every industry has many such cases. One day in 1895 a man in Brookline, Massachusetts, found his razor dull. Let King C. Gillette tell what happened: “It was not only dull, but it was beyond the point of successful stropping and it needed honing, for which it must be taken to a barber or to a cutler.”
His mind charged ahead. “At that time and in that moment it seemed as though I could see the way the blade could be held in a holder; then came the idea of sharpening the two opposite edges on the tiny piece of steel that was in uniform thickness throughout, thus doubling its service; and following in sequence came the clamping plates for the blade with a handle equally disposed between the two edges of the blade.
“All this came more in pictures than in thought,” he remembered, “as though the razor were already a finished thing and held before my eyes.
“I stood there before that mirror in a trance of joy at what I saw. Fool that I was, I knew little about razors and practically nothing about steel, and could not foresee the trials and tribulations that I was to pass through before the razor was a success. But I believed in it, and joyed in it. I wrote to my wife, who was visiting in Ohio, “I have got it; our fortune is made.”
In all the above examples, it can be seen what a crucial role the subconscious plays when brainstorming for creative ideas. Us it to your advantage!

Voyager – Quad Band Touchscreen Dual-SIM WiFi Media Cellphone Good deal, great shippingby Chad M – on 10/03/2009
Very happy with the purchase, ordered Monday AM, paid a little extra to ship by Fedex, got here (Orlando) Wednesday AM. plugged in t-mobile sims, worked right out of the box. The signal reception is not the greatest, but it is acceptable. Video player – used MPEG4, no problem. MP3 player works, nothing fancy. Took it to work, one of the guys recognized that the power input looked like his old samsung phone. Got his old cables, wall power charger and car charger worked fine, but samsung data cable did not work. Good to know for buying backup cables. Have not configured for GSM/GPRS, but wifi is working great, no intent on paying for an overpriced data plan. All in all, great phone for the price, especially for a t-mobile customer, when the closest comparable phone to this is the dash (which I actually replaced with this) and that goes for 150+, and the screen on this is much better. Very impressed with Chinavasion. Only reason no 5 star, originally ordered Odyessy, and then told it was out of stock so had to switch to Voyager. Other than that hiccup, no problems. I advise Fedex for the shipping.

What is the significance of output/input impedance?
I’m not really sure what significance does input/output impedance have to a electircal input/output system. If anyone can clarify or point me to a website that clarifies it, that would be great.Thanks
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_impedance
http://www.kpsec.freeuk.com/imped.htm
It is important in circuits to find what impedance is needed to drive what you need your circuit to do. It is important to realize that resistance and reactance are not individually significant; together they determine the magnitude and phase of the impedance.In many applications the relative phase of the voltage and current is not critical so only the magnitude of the impedance is significant.A reactive component is distinguished by the fact that the sinusoidal voltage across the component is in quadrature with the sinusoidal current through the component. This implies that the component alternately absorbs energy from the circuit and then returns energy to the circuit. A pure reactance will not dissipate any power.
