As a hard-core movie and TV buff, my enthusiasm extends beyond the screen. There's something magical about being able to hold in your hands life-size replicas of what you see on screen, further immersing you into the fantasy worlds you love to watch over and over. Who among us hasn't wanted a Star Wars light-saber, a Star-Trek phaser, a Hellboy Samaritan, an Indian Jones whip, a Harry Potter Golden Snitch, a Kill Bill Katana, or a Ghostbuster's ghost trap?
My first replica was actually a Harry Potter Elder's Wand that I 3D printed for my nephew Eric several years back. It was a fun project: finding a good model, figuring out how to successfully print it, testing out painting methods, and finishing the project together with Eric so he had a hand in the creation. I liked it so much, I printed a second wand for myself.
My second replica was a Terminator T2 Judgement Day collectible arm that came with the 4K UHD movie. This addition really opened my eyes to the joy of collecting replicas, and gave me some dreams for the future. I love that scene in T2 when John Connor is in the Cyberdyne research lab and they enter the vault with the T-800 severed arm and brain chip fragment. How cool would it be for me to create some type of "vault" (erhm... hallway) where you could browse a collection of movie replicas - perhaps more like a museum but with a sense of secrecy to the presentation. My plans are grand, but it will likely be years before I can show them off - they will be part of a new house build I'm still dreaming up....
But for now, there's no reason for me to delay expanding my collection, and that's exactly what I've been doing. I decided I should share with my fellow movie enthusiasts what I've gathered so far, and allow for all of you to share your prized pieces too.
While I enjoy making my own props, one thing you'll pick up on is that I have a desire for realism, not just in appearance but also experience. 3D printed plastic props that feel like cheap plastic don't appeal to me - so I go to great effort to increase realism through proper weighting of finished pieces, and using real materials for finishes.
For many movie enthusiasts, collecting scale models and figurines is also a big passion - one that I do not share. Respectfully, I ask that contributions be limited to full-scale, life-size replicas only.

We stopped in here for lunch at the end of August and had the ahi tuna nachos..yum and the lobster rolls which were the special that day both were fantastic! The service was freindly and we felt the pricing was reasonable.
The paintings decorating the wall were nice and the service was friendly.
We will come back if ever on the Island again!

The development of static power converters capable of transforming DC energy obtained from alternative sources into AC has become one of the main challenges in renewable energy systems. In this context, the buck-boost inverter is advantageous for being capable of providing an AC output voltage higher or lower than the input DC voltage in a single power conversion stage. In this paper, a controller based on the non-linear sliding mode theory is proposed for a three-phase buck-boost inverter to track a desired AC reference voltage. Unlike conventional linear sliding mode controllers that depend on the errors of the state variables, the control law used here depends only on the input and output voltages of the converter without the need to the inductor current measurement, which reduces the system complexity and cost. The proposed controller can not only track the desired reference quickly and accurately, but also achieve a high immunity to external perturbations, such as input voltage and output load disturbances. Several simulation studies are presented in order to investigate the performance of the proposed controller. © 2014 IEEE.

As the boat came alongside the Malahini, Hermann's anxious face greeted them over the rail.
"Bottom out fall from barometer," he announced. "She's goin' to blow. I got starboard anchor overhaul."
"Overhaul the big one, too," Captain Warfield ordered, taking charge. "And here, some of you, hoist in this boat. Lower her down to the deck and lash her bottom up."
Men were busy at work on the decks of all the schooners. There was a great clanking of chains being overhauled, and now one craft, and now another, hove in, veered, and dropped a second anchor. Like the Malahini, those that had third anchors were preparing to drop them when the wind showed what quarter it was to blow from.
The roar of the big surf continually grew, though the lagoon lay in the mirror-like calm. There was no sign of life where Parlay's big house perched on the sand. Boat and copra-sheds and the sheds where the shell was stored were deserted.
"For two cents I'd up anchors and get out," Grief said. "I'd do it anyway if it were open sea. But those chains of atolls to the north and east have us pocketed. We've a better chance right here. What do you think, Captain Warfield?"
"I agree with you, though a lagoon is no millpond for riding it out. I wonder where she's going to start from? Hello! There goes one of Parlay's copra-sheds."
They could see the grass-thatched shed lift and collapse, while a froth of foam cleared the crest of the sand and ran down to the lagoon.
"Breached across!" Mulhall exclaimed. "That's something for a starter. There she comes again!"
The wreck of the shed was now flung up and left on the sand-crest. A third wave buffeted it into fragments which washed down the slope toward the lagoon.
"If she blow I would as be cooler yet," Hermann grunted. "No longer can I breathe. It is damn hot. I am dry like a stove."
He chopped open a drinking cocoanut with his heavy sheath-knife and drained the contents. The rest of them followed his example, pausing once to watch one of Parlay's shell sheds go down in ruin. The barometer now registered 29:50.
"Must be pretty close to the centre of the area of low pressure," Grief remarked cheerfully. "I was never through the eye of a hurricane before. It will be an experience for you, too, Mulhall. From the speed the barometer's dropped, it's going to be a big one."
Captain Warfield groaned, and all eyes drew to him. He was looking through the glasses down the length of the lagoon to the southeast.
"There she comes," he said quietly.
They did not need glasses to see. A flying film, strangely marked, seemed drawing over the surface of the lagoon. Abreast of it, along the atoll, travelling with equal speed, was a stiff bending of the cocoanut palms and a blur of flying leaves. The front of the wind on the water was a solid, sharply defined strip of dark-coloured, wind-vexed water. In advance of this strip, like skirmishers, were flashes of wind-flaws. Behind this strip, a quarter of a mile in width, was a strip of what seemed glassy calm. Next came another dark strip of wind, and behind that the lagoon was all crisping, boiling whiteness.
"What is that calm streak?" Mulhall asked.
"Calm," Warfield answered.
"But it travels as fast as the wind," was the other's objection.
"It has to, or it would be overtaken and it wouldn't be any calm. It's a double-header. I saw a big squall like that off Savaii once. A regular double-header. Smash! it hit us, then it lulled to nothing, and smashed us a second time. Stand by and hold on! Here she is on top of us. Look at the Roberta!"
The Roberta, lying nearest to the wind at slack chains, was swept off broadside like a straw. Then her chains brought her up, bow on to the wind, with an astonishing jerk. Schooner after schooner, the Malahini with them, was now sweeping away with the first gust and fetching up on taut chains. Mulhall and several of the Kanakas were taken off their feet when the Malahini jerked to her anchors.
And then there was no wind. The flying calm streak had reached them. Grief lighted a match, and the unshielded flame burned without flickering in the still air. A very dim twilight prevailed. The cloud-sky, lowering as it had been for hours, seemed now to have descended quite down upon the sea.
The Roberta tightened to her chains when the second head of the hurricane hit, as did schooner after schooner in swift succession. The sea, white with fury, boiled in tiny, spitting wavelets. The deck of the Malahini vibrated under the men's feet. The taut-stretched halyards beat a tattoo against the masts, and all the rigging, as if smote by some mighty hand, set up a wild thrumming. It was impossible to face the wind and breathe. Mulhall, crouching with the others behind the shelter of the cabin, discovered this, and his lungs were filled in an instant with so great a volume of driven air which he could not expel that he nearly strangled ere he could turn his head away.
"It's incredible," he gasped, but no one heard him.
Hermann and several Kanakas were crawling for'ard on hands and knees to let go the third anchor. Grief touched Captain Warfield and pointed to the Roberta. She was dragging down upon them. Warfield put his mouth to Grief's ear and shouted:
"We're dragging, too!"
Grief sprang to the wheel and put it hard over, veering the Malahini to port. The third anchor took hold, and the Roberta went by, stern-first, a dozen yards away. They waved their hands to Peter Gee and Captain Robinson, who, with a number of sailors, were at work on the bow.
"He's knocking out the shackles!" Grief shouted. "Going to chance the passage! Got to! Anchors skating!"
"We're holding now!" came the answering shout. "There goes the Cactus down on the Misi. That settles them!"
The Misi had been holding, but the added windage of the Cactus was too much, and the entangled schooners slid away across the boiling white. Their men could be seen chopping and fighting to get them apart. The Roberta, cleared of her anchors, with a patch of tarpaulin set for'ard, was heading for the passage at the northwestern end of the lagoon. They saw her make it and drive out to sea. But the Misi and Cactus, unable to get clear of each other, went ashore on the atoll half a mile from the passage.
The wind merely increased on itself and continued to increase. To face the full blast of it required all one's strength, and several minutes of crawling on deck against it tired a man to exhaustion. Hermann, with his Kanakas, plodded steadily, lashing and making secure, putting ever more gaskets on the sails. The wind ripped and tore their thin undershirts from their backs. They moved slowly, as if their bodies weighed tons, never releasing a hand-hold until another had been secured. Loose ends of rope stood out stiffly horizontal, and, when a whipping gave, the loose end frazzled and blew away.
Mulhall touched one and then another and pointed to the shore. The grass-sheds had disappeared, and Parlay's house rocked drunkenly. Because the wind blew lengthwise along the atoll, the house had been sheltered by the miles of cocoanut trees. But the big seas, breaking across from outside, were undermining it and hammering it to pieces. Already tilted down the slope of sand, its end was imminent. Here and there in the cocoanut trees people had lashed themselves. The trees did not sway or thresh about. Bent over rigidly from the wind, they remained in that position and vibrated monstrously. Underneath, across the sand, surged the white spume of the breakers.
A big sea was likewise making down the length of the lagoon. It had plenty of room to kick up in the ten-mile stretch from the windward rim of the atoll, and all the schooners were bucking and plunging into it. The Malahini had begun shoving her bow and fo'c'sle head under the bigger ones, and at times her waist was filled rail-high with water.
"Now's the time for your engine!" Grief bellowed; and Captain Warfield, crawling over to where the engineer lay, shouted emphatic commands.
Under the engine, going full speed ahead, the Malahini behaved better. While she continued to ship seas over her bow, she was not jerked down so fiercely by her anchors. On the other hand, she was unable to get any slack in the chains. The best her forty horsepower could do was to ease the strain.
Still the wind increased. The little Nuhiva, lying abreast of the Malahini and closer in to the beach, her engine still unrepaired and her captain ashore, was having a bad time of it. She buried herself so frequently and so deeply that they wondered each time if she could clear herself of the water. At three in the afternoon, buried by a second sea before she could free herself of the preceding one, she did not come up.
Mulhall looked at Grief.
"Burst in her hatches," was the bellowed answer.
Captain Warfield pointed to the Winifred, a little schooner plunging and burying outside of them, and shouted in Grief's ear. His voice came in patches of dim words, with intervals of silence when whisked away by the roaring wind.
"Rotten little tub . . . Anchors hold . . . But how she holds together . . . Old as the ark—"
An hour later Hermann pointed to her. Her for'ard bitts, foremast, and most of her bow were gone, having been jerked out of her by her anchors. She swung broadside, rolling in the trough and settling by the head, and in this plight was swept away to leeward.
Five vessels now remained, and of them the Malahini was the only one with an engine. Fearing either the Nuhiva's or the Winifred's fate, two of them followed the Roberta's example, knocking out the chain-shackles and running for the passage. The Dolly was the first, but her tarpaulin was carried away, and she went to destruction on the lee-rim of the atoll near the Misi and the Cactus. Undeterred by this, the Moana let go and followed with the same result.
"Pretty good engine that, eh?" Captain Warfield yelled to his owner.
Grief put out his hand and shook. "She's paying for herself!" he yelled back. "The wind's shifting around to the south'ard, and we ought to lie easier!"
Slowly and steadily, but with ever-increasing velocity, the wind veered around to the south and the southwest, till the three schooners that were left pointed directly in toward the beach. The wreck of Parlays house was picked up, hurled into the lagoon, and blown out upon them. Passing the Malahini, it crashed into the Papara, lying a quarter of a mile astern. There was wild work for'ard on her, and in a quarter of an hour the house went clear, but it had taken the Papara's foremast and bowsprit with it.
Inshore, on their port bow, lay the Tahaa, slim and yacht-like, but excessively oversparred. Her anchors still held, but her captain, finding no abatement in the wind, proceeded to reduce windage by chopping down his masts.
"Pretty good engine that," Grief congratulated his skipper. "It will save our sticks for us yet."
Captain Warfield shook his head dubiously.
The sea on the lagoon went swiftly down with the change of wind, but they were beginning to feel the heave and lift of the outer sea breaking across the atoll. There were not so many trees remaining. Some had been broken short off, others uprooted. One tree they saw snap off halfway up, three persons clinging to it, and whirl away by the wind into the lagoon. Two detached themselves from it and swam to the Tahaa. Not long after, just before darkness, they saw one jump overboard from that schooner's stern and strike out strongly for the Malahini through the white, spitting wavelets.
"It's Tai-Hotauri," was Grief's judgment. "Now we'll have the news."
The Kanaka caught the bobstay, climbed over the bow, and crawled aft. Time was given him to breathe, and then, behind the part shelter of the cabin, in broken snatches and largely by signs, he told his story.
"Narii . . . damn robber . . . He want steal . . . pearls . . . Kill Parlay . . . One man kill Parlay . . . No man know what man . . . Three Kanakas, Narii, me . . . Five beans . . . hat . . . Narii say one bean black . . . Nobody know . . . Kill Parlay . . . Narii damn liar . . . All beans black . . . Five black . . . Copra-shed dark . . . Every man get black bean . . . Big wind come . . . No chance . . . Everybody get up tree . . . No good luck them pearls, I tell you before . . . No good luck."
"Where's Parlay?" Grief shouted.
"Up tree . . . Three of his Kanakas same tree. Narii and one Kanaka 'nother tree . . . My tree blow to hell, then I come on board."
"Where's the pearls?"
"Up tree along Parlay. Mebbe Narii get them pearl yet."
In the ear of one after another Grief passed on Tai-Hotauri's story. Captain Warfield was particularly incensed, and they could see him grinding his teeth.
Hermann went below and returned with a riding light, but the moment it was lifted above the level of the cabin wall the wind blew it out. He had better success with the binnacle lamp, which was lighted only after many collective attempts.
"A fine night of wind!" Grief yelled in Mulhall's ear. "And blowing harder all the time."
"A hundred miles an hour . . . two hundred . . . I don't know . . . Harder than I've ever seen it."
The lagoon grew more and more troubled by the sea that swept across the atoll. Hundreds of leagues of ocean was being backed up by the hurricane, which more than overcame the lowering effect of the ebb tide. Immediately the tide began to rise the increase in the size of the seas was noticeable. Moon and wind were heaping the South Pacific on Hikihoho atoll.
Captain Warfield returned from one of his periodical trips to the engine room with the word that the engineer lay in a faint.
"Can't let that engine stop!" he concluded helplessly.
"All right!" Grief said. "Bring him on deck. I'll spell him."
The hatch to the engine room was battened down, access being gained through a narrow passage from the cabin. The heat and gas fumes were stifling. Grief took one hasty, comprehensive examination of the engine and the fittings of the tiny room, then blew out the oil-lamp. After that he worked in darkness, save for the glow from endless cigars which he went into the cabin to light. Even-tempered as he was, he soon began to give evidences of the strain of being pent in with a mechanical monster that toiled, and sobbed, and slubbered in the shouting dark. Naked to the waist, covered with grease and oil, bruised and skinned from being knocked about by the plunging, jumping vessel, his head swimming from the mixture of gas and air he was compelled to breathe, he laboured on hour after hour, in turns petting, blessing, nursing, and cursing the engine and all its parts. The ignition began to go bad. The feed grew worse. And worst of all, the cylinders began to heat. In a consultation held in the cabin the half-caste engineer begged and pleaded to stop the engine for half an hour in order to cool it and to attend to the water circulation. Captain Warfield was against any stopping. The half-caste swore that the engine would ruin itself and stop anyway and for good. Grief, with glaring eyes, greasy and battered, yelled and cursed them both down and issued commands. Mulhall, the supercargo, and Hermann were set to work in the cabin at double-straining and triple-straining the gasoline. A hole was chopped through the engine room floor, and a Kanaka heaved bilge-water over the cylinders, while Grief continued to souse running parts in oil.
"Didn't know you were a gasoline expert," Captain Warfield admired when Grief came into the cabin to catch a breath of little less impure air.
"I bathe in gasoline," he grated savagely through his teeth. "I eat it."
What other uses he might have found for it were never given, for at that moment all the men in the cabin, as well as the gasoline being strained, were smashed for'ard against the bulkhead as the Malahini took an abrupt, deep dive. For the space of several minutes, unable to gain their feet, they rolled back and forth and pounded and hammered from wall to wall. The schooner, swept by three big seas, creaked and groaned and quivered, and from the weight of water on her decks behaved logily. Grief crept to the engine, while Captain Warfield waited his chance to get through the companionway and out on deck.
It was half an hour before he came back.
"Whaleboat's gone!" he reported. "Galley's gone! Everything gone except the deck and hatches! And if that engine hadn't been going we'd be gone! Keep up the good work!"
By midnight the engineer's lungs and head had been sufficiently cleared of gas fumes to let him relieve Grief, who went on deck to get his own head and lungs clear. He joined the others, who crouched behind the cabin, holding on with their hands and made doubly secure by rope- lashings. It was a complicated huddle, for it was the only place of refuge for the Kanakas. Some of them had accepted the skipper's invitation into the cabin but had been driven out by the fumes. The Malahini was being plunged down and swept frequently, and what they breathed was air and spray and water commingled.
"Making heavy weather of it, Mulhall!" Grief shouted to his guest between immersions.
Mulhall, strangling and choking, could only nod. The scuppers could not carry off the burden of water on the schooner's deck. She rolled it out and took it in over one rail and the other; and at times, nose thrown skyward, sitting down on her heel, she avalanched it aft. It surged along the poop gangways, poured over the top of the cabin, submerging and bruising those that clung on, and went out over the sternrail.
Mulhall saw him first, and drew Grief's attention. It was Narii Herring, crouching and holding on where the dim binnacle light shone upon him. He was quite naked, save for a belt and a bare-bladed knife thrust between it and the skin.
Captain Warfield untied his lashings and made his way over the bodies of the others. When his face became visible in the light from the binnacle it was working with anger. They could see him speak, but the wind tore the sound away. He would not put his lips to Narii's ear. Instead, he pointed over the side. Narii Herring understood. His white teeth showed in an amused and sneering smile, and he stood up, a magnificent figure of a man.
"It's murder!" Mulhall yelled to Grief.
"He'd have murdered Old Parlay!" Grief yelled back.
For the moment the poop was clear of water and the Malahini on an even keel. Narii made a bravado attempt to walk to the rail, but was flung down by the wind. Thereafter he crawled, disappearing in the darkness, though there was certitude in all of them that he had gone over the side. The Malahini dived deep, and when they emerged from the flood that swept aft, Grief got Mulhall's ear.
"Can't lose him! He's the Fish Man of Tahiti! He'll cross the lagoon and land on the other rim of the atoll if there's any atoll left!"
Five minutes afterward, in another submergence, a mess of bodies poured down on them over the top of the cabin. These they seized and held till the water cleared, when they carried them below and learned their identity. Old Parlay lay on his back on the floor, with closed eyes and without movement. The other two were his Kanaka cousins. All three were naked and bloody. The arm of one Kanaka hung helpless and broken at his side. The other man bled freely from a hideous scalp wound.
"Narii did that?" Mulhall demanded.
Grief shook his head. "No; it's from being smashed along the deck and over the house!"
Something suddenly ceased, leaving them in dizzying uncertainty. For the moment it was hard to realize there was no wind. With the absolute abruptness of a sword slash, the wind had been chopped off. The schooner rolled and plunged, fetching up on her anchors with a crash which for the first time they could hear. Also, for the first time they could hear the water washing about on deck. The engineer threw off the propeller and eased the engine down.
"We're in the dead centre," Grief said. "Now for the shift. It will come as hard as ever" He looked at the barometer. "29:32," he read.
Not in a moment could he tone down the voice which for hours had battled against the wind, and so loudly did he speak that in the quiet it hurt the others' ears.
"All his ribs are smashed," the supercargo said, feeling along Parlay's side. "He's still breathing, but he's a goner."
Old Parlay groaned, moved one arm impotently, and opened his eyes. In them was the light of recognition.
"My brave gentlemen," he whispered haltingly. "Don't forget . . . the auction . . . at ten o'clock . . . in hell."
His eyes dropped shut and the lower jaw threatened to drop, but he mastered the qualms of dissolution long enough to omit one final, loud, derisive cackle.
Above and below pandemonium broke out. The old familiar roar of the wind was with them. The Malahini, caught broadside, was pressed down almost on her beam ends as she swung the arc compelled by her anchors. They rounded her into the wind, where she jerked to an even keel. The propeller was thrown on, and the engine took up its work again.
"Northwest!" Captain Warfield shouted to Grief when he came on deck. "Hauled eight points like a shot!"
"Narii'll never get across the lagoon now!" Grief observed.
"Then he'll blow back to our side, worse luck!"

In response, Miami-Dade made it illegal to own the short-snouted breed. Offenders face a $500 fine, and confiscated dogs are likely to be put down.
But 20 years later, that breed specific legislation might be overturned. Florida politicians Rep. Carlos Trujillo and Sen. Jim Norman have both sponsored bills that will remove Miami-Dade County's exemption from the statewide breed-discriminatory legislation prohibition.
The cause also has a very public figure behind it, new Marlins pitcher Mark Buehrle. The ball player recently signed on with Miami but was dismayed to learn that because he owns a pit bull, he could not live in Miami-Dade.
Buehrle's wife, Jaime, recently started an online petition to end what she calls "canine discrimination." Her petition proposal reads:
No other county in Florida is allowed such unmitigated power over people's pets. It is time that Miamians again enjoy the same right that citizens in Florida’s 66 other counties have.
Despite being over 20 years old, Miami's canine profiling still causes the needless, senseless and unjustified confiscation and killing of hundreds of innocent dogs every year, proving that breed discrimination does not make communities safer, and is impossible to enforce. It's also a waste of tax dollars. Nowhere else in Florida can certain breeds of dogs be summarily killed simply because of their appearance.
At the time of this writing, there are almost 1,200 signatures, and the movement seems to be gaining traction. On Saturday, there was a Breed Specific Legislation protest on a Hialeah street corner (visit Nikon Miami for photos).
Ledy VanKavage, senior legislative attorney for Best Friends Animal Society, says breed-discriminatory laws are expensive and ineffective. He cites a study by the economic research firm John Dunham and Associates that estimates Miami-Dade County spends more than $3 million a year to enforce the current law.

1. Taran Killam is “The Guy” now
To be certain, he’s not exactly the unequivocal star of the show yet. But he’s the go- to guy that fills the roles previously inhabited by recently departed cast members such as Bill Hader and Jason Sudeikis. Maybe it’s more accurate to call him “The Glue,” since he now holds so many sketches together with his multi-purpose skills. But he also has the power to get on characters such as Eddie, an unfunny character who if played by anyone other than Killam might not have gotten a second appearance. Killam has been poised to break through for a while now, and it looks like this is the year he finally will.

From chocolate and marshmallow peeps to those delicious little jelly beans, Easter is a candy-filled treat for anyone with a sweet tooth!
In honor of the Easter holiday that’s quickly approaching, we pulled together some amazing Easter cookies and sweet treats that take Easter candy to a whole new level! Enjoy!
We loved this fun twist on Rice Krispie treats! Stephanie cuts out the bars with an egg-shaped cookie cutter, dips them in melting chocolate and then into sprinkles! How fun! (Heads up: She also has some super adorable Easter printables on her blog, too!)
We were pretty sure that Nutter Butters couldn’t get more delicious, but when dipped in melting chocolate? Yes, please!
We were thrilled to see Jordan almonds on display (and not just at a wedding!) A little royal icing takes these confections to a new (adorable!) level!
Shanon makes these Bird’s Nests with chow mein noodles, but can you imagine them with pretzels? We’re positively swooning at the idea of the perfect sweet-and-salty combination!
We think that the green fingertips you’ll end up with after using food coloring to dye the coconut “grass” will be totally worth the ooh’s and aah’s you will get on Easter Sunday! If this is half as delicious as it is adorable, it’ll be a show-stopper!
Do you have a favorite Easter treat or tradition? We’d love to hear about it!

headbone VAlve tube Head switcher
- Toggle between two heads using one speaker cabinet
- Control the Headbone with a footswitch remote
- Safe switching for both solid state and tube heads
- Choose from three Headbones to adapt to any setup
The Radial Headbone is a specially designed switching device that lets you toggle between two different guitar amplifier heads using a single speaker cabinet. With the Headbone in your rig, you can use your Marshall head for rhythm and your Mesa-Boogie head for soloing. This is of particular interest for players that demand the utmost in tonal performance when on stage or in the studio.
Features include 100% discrete class-A circuitry for exceptional audio performance, transformer isolated guitar signal path to eliminate ground loops, plus a choice of either buffered or un-buffered inputs to optimize the signal path. The Headbone's internal switching comprises a series of relays, opto-couplers and load resistors, all of which are sequenced via a digitally programmed chip. Hit the footswitch and the Headbone jumps to action as it toggles the guitar signal from one amp to the other, disconnects the speaker and diverts the signal to a load resister, reconnects the speaker to the second head and turns the guitar back on - all in quick succession. The Headbone features SafeMode™ whereby in the event that power is disconnected - the Headbone's guitar input will automatically turn off. To eliminate a mess of cables on stage, the Headbone is equipped with Slingshot – a remote control port that lets you switch the Headbone using any standard footswitch or MIDI controlled contact closure. This eliminates long speaker cables while improving system efficiency.
The Headbone is available in 3 models: The Headbone VT for two valve/tube heads, the Headbone SS for two solid-state heads and the Headbone TS for tube to solid-state amp head switching.

I know that Monterrey is the third LARGEST city in Mexico, but I can't find where it says that. As far as I know, it just says that Monterrey is the "third city in mexico", which doesn't make too much sense to me. Am I being too literal? Is there some idiomatic meaning?

Markham’s NHL bid misguided

Re: NHL team still a long ways off, Jan. 31
NHL team still a long ways off, Jan. 31
What a warped sense of priorities!
At a time when extreme weather is playing havoc with municipal infrastructure, and with gridlock a daily nightmare for commuters, you’d think municipalities such as Markham would have better things to do than throw taxpayer dollars at a multimillion-dollar boondoggle.
Public transit in Markham is woefully inadequate, as it is in many parts of York Region. And getting there from Toronto is increasingly difficult and complicated — from personal experience, it’s actually easier to go from Toronto to Winnipeg.
Markham and other suburban municipalities need to get their act together. What were they thinking?

Probably the dinkiest castle you're ever going to see; Kolossi Castle was built in AD 1210 by the Knights of St. It is a fine example of military architecture and served as the Grand Command center of Jerusalem's Order of St.
Room Two holds artifacts from the Graeco-Roman era including a stunning bronze bull and some delicate figurines, while Room Three contains some of the most important finds from the local area, including statues of the Egyptian god Bes and the goddess Artemis unearthed at Amathus.
Outside, within the pleasant garden, is a sundial, which was once owned by Lord Kitchener.
Some of the earlier fortifications can be seen just inside the walls.
This is where Richard the Lionheart of England married Berengaria, and later, the Ottomans used it as a military base.
This is the cosmopolitan hub of Cyprus, effortlessly blending sophisticated modernisation with its ancient past.
Hip restaurants and cafés cluster around the restored old town center, while a busy port nearby is soon to be balanced with an ultra snazzy new marina set to open within the next couple of years.After dosing up on castle history, check out the city's modern vibe at the innovative Lanitis Art Foundation (also on the main square), housed in an old Carob Mill and home to a rotating schedule of exhibitions.A hop-skip-and-jump east from the square is bulky Limassol Cathedral, with a wonderfully Baroque facade, while down a squiggle of an alleyway is the small Grand Mosque, surrounded by palm trees.Limassol's lively old town district is the most interesting part of the city to explore.Right in the center, on the main square, is Limassol Castle, built in the 14th century on the site of an earlier Byzantine construction.Beside the main castle building is the ruins of a medieval factory where the knights processed sugar cane.

How surprised would you be if the singer providing the soundtrack to your workout was exercising right alongside you?
That's exactly what happened to folks in a sold-out spin class at Soul Cycle in Atlanta when Joe Jonas crashed a "One Direction vs. Jonas Brothers" class.
Jonas chronicled his unexpected drop-by on Instagram, saying he had the day off and was looking for a way to workout when he came across the spin class, reports Entertainment Weekly. Turns out, the class was already full, but they were willing to let Jonas pop in anyway.
In the video, those attending the class are clearly surprised to see him walk in, and he cheers them on before eventually joining them for a spin on the instructor's bike.
Prior to Jonas' arrival, team One Direction was apparently winning the spin battle, but Team Jonas Brothers took the lead once they had a literal Jo-Bro in their midst.

It's hardly surprising that European officials are 'regretting' the US departure from the international gentlemens' agreement. What was the point of sitting in windowless conference rooms eating bad sandwiches for nigh on seven years? One consultant from the big four accounting firms I recently spoke to said he had walked up to Roger Ferguson, vice chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, and asked him whether or not he had meant it a few years back when he said that Basel I was "broken" and needed fixing.
Certainly, most countries didn't do QIS4, and are now doing QIS5 – so we will have to wait and see how the results come in from those studies. If they look like the US data – with its dramatic and uneven credit risk capital declines – the whole framework may need revisiting. But at the moment, this is not expected.
No, the rest of the world is getting on with the task of implementing the agreed framework – even India and China. The US delay is probably for the best, but its departure from the framework in key areas will put international co-operation under strain before long.

Beginners' luck for Weston team playing for fun
PUBLISHED: 10:06 18 April 2018 | UPDATED: 10:06 18 April 2018
A Weston skittles team entered a major tournament at the last minute for fun and won it at the first attempt.
A team of skittlers from Weston are proof that there is such a thing as beginner’s luck. They entered a major skittles tournament at the last minute for fun and won it at their first attempt.
The Ugandan Yankers were competing against 31 teams who had all travelled to Torquay from Gloucestershire, Somerset, Leicester, Wiltshire, as well as Llandaff and Barry in Wales.
Captain Paul Stewart said they’d only entered at the last minute and were treating it as a bit of fun.
Pre-match things hadn’t all been plain sailing with one team member falling from a roof and breaking his leg. So fellow skittler Sandra Watkins stepped in to fill the gap as the only female member of the team.
Another team member, Gary Norman, had to be persuaded to fly back from Cyprus where he now lives and works, to join his son Toby and their pals in the team to make up the numbers.
However, after the first day’s matches, the Ugandan Yankers found themselves booking their place in the finals alongside seven other teams, still not expecting to win.
After some tense skittling, the Ugandan Yankers emerged the victors with 436 points, with the Dirty Dozen from Stroud runners-up and five points behind. Third were the Leftovers from Henstridge with 414.
So what was the secret of their unexpected success? “The beer helped,” confessed Paul, ‘but really it was a mixture of it being our first time so we were relaxed and not bothered about the outcome. We were just there to have a great time.”
The last-minute team which included many of the members from Weston St John, normally play out of the 49 Club in in the Weston District and Weston Central leagues. Weston St John are also regulars at the British Skittles Championships, having been crowned men’s champions in 2009.
“If the team qualifies for the finals in Torquay in September, ‘said Paul, ‘Gary will be coming over for that as usual. He loves the sunshine in Cyprus but there are no skittles out there.”
The tournament was organised by Serious About Events of Torquay, who also staged the British Skittles Championships.

Thank you for your email.
I note your concerns about caged farm animals and labelling of food products, however, I understand that my ministerial colleagues do not believe that the time is right to consult on cage reforms. The market is already driving the move away from using cages for laying hen production, and that the proportion of eggs from caged hens has steadily decreased from 47 per cent of total throughput in Q4 of 2017 to 21 per cent in Q1 of 2023.
The Government ran a call for evidence in 2021 to gather data on the impacts of different types of labelling reforms for animal welfare. I am aware that over 1,600 responses were received and the evidence suggested that there is public appetite for improved welfare labelling. However, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) does not consider the time is right to consult on proposals to reform labelling for animal welfare.
The Government will continue to work with the sector to maintain and enhance high standards of welfare. For example, the Animal Health and Welfare Pathway will prioritise areas for additional improvement in the health and welfare for pigs, cattle, sheep and poultry. I know that one of the Government’s priorities for the pathway includes supporting producers to transition away from confinement systems. More broadly, the Government will continue to improve biosecurity to control endemic diseases, and on meat chickens, producers are being encouraged to implement the Better Chicken commitment which would require the use of slower growing breeds and lower stocking densities. Ministers also intend to continue working with industry to explore how we can harness the market to improve food information for consumers and raise animal welfare standards.
As part of this, Defra will continue to gather evidence on the impacts of wide range of market interventions, as well as how they would align with wider labelling proposals such as eco-labelling.
In my view, the Government has a strong record on animal welfare improvements through a diverse range of measures introduced in recent years and further details are set out here: https://www.richardfuller.co.uk/campaigns/animal-welfare-update-september-2023
Thank you once again for contacting me.

As Brexit approaches, and with a general election just weeks away, the findings are likely to prove even more interesting than the results of surveys carried out in previous years.
The state-of-the-industry survey, which takes just a few minutes to complete, is available here. It seeks to collect the views of those working in the sector about a variety of issues, ranging from: perceptions about current market conditions; to trading relationships with retailers and others; and investment in new product development.
It will also attempt to identify whether environmental activities and waste reduction are still high on companies’ agendas, and ascertain whether manufacturers have enough confidence about the future to invest in capital equipment and employ more staff.
As an incentive to fill out the survey, all named entries will be entered into a prize draw with the chance of winning £100 of Amazon vouchers.
Brexit: threat or opportunity?
With Brexit potentially just a couple of years’ away, we want to gather people’s views about whether they see this more as a threat or an opportunity. And with the political debate between political parties on this most contentious of issues hotting up, the results of the election on June 8 are likely to determine whether we will face a ‘hard’ or ‘soft’ Brexit.
As a consequence, we ask respondents whether they expect the divorce from the EU to provide a boost to their businesses or harm them.
Linked with this separation, is the question of future access to non-UK EU staff – something that many in the sector consider crucial in keeping food and drink production lines in our factories running. We ask whether restrictions on EU workers after Brexit would damage respondents’ businesses.
Another big debate between political parties is about future access to the EU Single market. Questions are being raised about whether the UK will in the future benefit from levy-free access to 510M EU consumers or face swingeing World Trade Organisation tariffs.
Support for exports
And, if exports of food and drink to the EU are hit following Brexit, then opening up new global markets will become even more important. So, we ask respondents whether they expect the next UK government to provide more practical and financial support for food and drink exports.
The survey is being run over the next month and when closed, the results will be analysed and the findings published in the July issue of Food Manufacture and on FoodManufacture.co.uk. No mention will be made of either the individuals or their companies in the published results, which will be completely anonymous.
I would urge you to participate in Food Manufacture Group’s annual state-of-the-industry survey, whose findings this year look set to prove particularly telling – especially given the huge political and economic change in prospect.

New York and Paris, January 4, 2022 - Migrating business-critical applications to Cloud inevitably requires code changes as they are typically built for very different environments. CAST Highlight can analyze hundreds of applications in a week and automatically pinpoint where and what changes need to be made, what cloud native services to use, and estimate the required migration effort. The product is typically used by application owners and cloud migration experts to accelerate the assessment, planning, and execution of cloud migration programs.
Today, CAST is enhancing CAST Highlight to make it easier for individual developers to address the required changes faster.
The new CloudReady Extension for Visual Studio Code enables developers to see the code patterns that prevent or hinder migration to Cloud right in their integrated development environment. The extension shows the lines of code where these ‘cloud blockers’ are found and by clicking on each blocker they can see exactly the code affected as well as the suggested remediation. It arms developers with the intelligence they need to quickly remove existing blockers and avoid introducing new ones, without leaving their environment.
The new extension for Visual Studio Code is available to all CAST Highlight subscribers.
For more information, please contact Stephanie Watkins at firstname.lastname@example.org

Virginia man shot by deputy who gave him ride home earlier in the day
A man in Virginia was shot by the same sheriff’s deputy who had given him a ride home earlier in the day.
Isaiah Brown, a 32-year-old Black man, received a ride home from a deputy at 2:30 a.m. on Wednesday after his car broke down, according to NBC Washington.
The same day, he called 911 over a dispute with his brother.
The same deputy responded to the 911 call, and Brown was shot while holding a cordless phone, according to the outlet.
The Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Office released footage of the encounter on Friday as well as audio of the 911 call that preceded it in a video.
According to the audio recording, Brown called because his brother wouldn’t let him into his mother’s room to retrieve car keys.
Brown then threatened to kill his brother.
Several minutes into call, Brown said he was walking down the road with his house phone and that he did not have a gun.
In the recordings of the incident, however, the deputy stated that Brown had a “gun to his head.” He demanded to see Brown’s hands and that Brown drop the gun.
The officer then screamed, “Stop! Stop!” before appearing to fire at least six shots. After the shots, the deputy repeated his demands for Brown to show his hands and drop the gun.
The law enforcement officer then began to perform “lifesaving measures” on Brown, seen in the video lying in the street.
David Haynes of The Cochran Firm, who is representing Brown, said in a statement to The Hill that “it is evident that the tragic shooting of Isaiah Brown was completely avoidable.”
“Isaiah is now fighting for his life as a result of these completely avoidable errors by the deputy and dispatch,” Haynes said.
Brown was reportedly shot six times in the abdomen during the encounter.
The shooting comes after several Americans of color in the past week have been shot, sometimes fatally, by police.
North Carolina authorities said Wednesday that Andrew Brown Jr. was fatally shot after police attempted to serve him a warrant for felony charges.
Another Black American, 16-year-old Ma’Khai Bryant, was fatally shot four times by police after she lunged at another person. The officer who fired his weapon, Nicholas Reardon, said that she had a knife.
The shootings came the same week that a jury in Minneapolis convicted former police officer Derek Chauvin of murder and manslaughter charges in the death of George Floyd in May.
