What's happening with you, Tim ? Your short term memory malfunction gives a
probable reason for search of the compound for THC carriers.

The boosted high-end was mentioned in the context of dolby-recorded tapes
played without dolby circuit on or not present at all.

[and to another troller - music industry became well aware in 90-ties that
their major consumers - teens - do playback dolby tapes without dolby, and got
used to it, which made producers often boost high end in general, even when
dolby became immaterial. It's funny that average spectral characteristics of
music can give away it's age ]

"Warmer" sound is particularly enhanced if the source is 1/4" Revox.

  Getting 
the Most From 
Your Relationship
with a Contingency Search Firm 
by Bob Marshall, Recruitment Educator 

  Like 
any successful relationship with a consultant, working with a contingency 
recruiter will be more productive when each party understands how the 
other works.
  When choosing 
a recruiter, look for someone with a proven track record within your industry. 
This person will possess qualities such as intelligence, creativity, honesty, 
persistence, organizational skills and a sense of corporate maturity. 
They should also be good listeners and have an innate ability to "read" 
people.

  The 
Value of Realistic Performance Standards 
by Terry Petra
  Realistic 
performance standards provide both management and staff with a critically

Slump bloopers and blunders of

by Tom Hand

Slow growth is not a decline in market size. The dollars are still there 
and some staffing company, somewhere, is receiving them. Our economy has 
endured a "recession" about once a decade for the last two hundred 
years. The best firms use old techniques to prosper in a slow growth scenario.

  Using 
your Summer/Vacation recruiting "downtime" wisely
By W.J. Boczany, principal 

Generally, candidates and clients are busy with vacation planning and 
other distractions and often the hiring process takes a back seat to these 
lighter hearted events. Although we all need to share in the holiday spirit, 
it is important that we use our holiday down time wisely. While our access 
to candidates and clients may be difficult there still are a lot of things 
that we can do to prepare for vacation time.

Every senior wants to hear about the roth conversion if 
  you can eliminate the up front tax cost. You can with the new 
  and improved roth conversion program from GSL Advisory. 
The cheapest and most successful way to generate roth conversion 
  program leads is to send postcards while also placing an ad in the 
  small local paper. Repeat the ads and the postcard mailing at least 
  6 different times.
The one truth in advertising is that repetition works. Even 
  the smallest and most unassuming ad works if it is seen several 
  times. See if you can find an area that has its own zip code and 
  a local paper serving that area. Some retirement communities have 
  both a newspaper and their own zip code.
This is your gold mine.
To see the postcard and ad and to learn how to work the system, 
  complete the form below which will direct you to the post card and 
  how to make it work for you.

If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they
should give serious consideration towards setting a better example:
Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of
unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in
the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and 
elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire
populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate...
This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States
as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.

The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers,
associates, or others.  Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of
those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the
first place...

Mr. Elloi wrote first about the fashion for "valve" audio amps and then
mentioned that some yahoos listen with Dolby emphesis.  I commented that
the latter was
for the old deaf.  This is unrelated to the fashion for valves.

I don't think the

Yes, in the linear part of their operation.  But its the *distortion*
(large signal
behavior) which differs ---tubes distort differently when "overdriven".
I believe
the difference when driven with a square wave is that tubes have a more
RC-like output function, vs. a sharper (faster slew) transistor
reproduction.

One little known fact is that humans actually prefer a small amount of
distortion
in their listening.  The THD of amps with a lot of decimal-zeroes, is a
good technical spec (easily
attainable, cheaply, nowadays), but is totally a marketing scam.  First
you can't hear the difference
between .01 and .001 % THD, and second you prefer ~ .1%

Now back to your regularly scheduled decay of civilization..

I always thought it came from pimp slang - booty being what you

Interesting the way terms like give hints about etymology and cognates.

Hood is to bonnet, in terms of clothing as well as cars, as trunk is to 
boot, as in booty.

(Booty being a black slang term for ass; no doubt related to "trunk" as 
body part, as in "swim trunks.")

The morphism between British English and American English gives rise to 
many interesting structures.

Someone said something earlier about tube/valve amps giving a boost to 
the high end, for older, hearing-damaged rockers. I don't think the 
frequency response has evern been an issue...tube amps are said to have 
a "warmer" sound, and to have more odd harmonic distortion than 
transistor amps, but the frequency response of _any_ transistor or tube 
amp is vastly beyond what even high-end speakers and headphones can 
typically deliver.

A modern solid state amp is essentially "flat" from 20 Hz to 20 KHz.

(I haven't tested my hearing in a while, with my Test CDs, but when I do 
I use my Stax electrostatics or my Etymotics instead of my Mirage 
speakers. Last I checked, my hearing was rolling off at around 16-17 
KHz.)

No doubt some transfers from film are better than others.  Often these 
discrepancies are more a function of the budget, skill and care of the 
technician, the available working print and particular equipment and 
software used, than the target medium.

However, all other things being equal, I agree with Tim: DVD is a superior 
medium to consumer video tape and Laser disk.

Physical number of lines is far from being the only measure of quality.

Compression has a huge impact, and so do other digital artifacts.

For instance, just take a look at the opening scenes (earth rising on the moon
horizon) in Kubrick's 2001 on laserdisc and DVD. In DVD, the dark blue-black
background consists of funny rectangles.

There are also a lot of motion artefacts which give a certain "feel" do DVD
image - but then, that may become fashionable, as valve amplifiers are again
now or listening to dolby-recorded tapes without dolby players - some just like
that boost in the high end.

Right. And a shortage of anything, cash making no exception, is solved
automatically (if the market is left alone). The value of a monetary unit
will rise until its price will be considered (by the cash holders) high
enough - that is, until they will value something else more than the cash.
Shortages are NEVER a problem if the market is left alone to clear it - they
simply indicate an undervaluation of the commodity.

Re: overcoming ecash deployment problems (Re: all about transferable off-line ecash)

[Adam Back]

I think you are assuming things about rational economic behavior when
a money system is subject to high deflation.

Consider during periods of high inflation people don't like holding
money, as it devalues too fast.  They will hold interest bearing
deposits instead.

During periods of high deflation, they will hold cash if it is the
most attractive "investment".  The result will be shortage of cash,
for people who actually want to use it to make purchases because
investors will buy all of it.

Perhaps there are some government monetary systems in history which
had this problem.  For example gold with sudden shortage of gold
supply, or similar.

[The following video data snippets are from the excellent hobbyist video site 
www.vcdhelp.com  Many foreign contributors, some with only passable English skills.]]

The official (legal) resolutions for optical media are: 

720 X 576 (480 NTSC). Used by most DVD. 
704 X 576 (480 NTSC). Used by some DVD 
480 X 576 (480 NTSC). Used by SVCD 
352 X 576 (480 NTSC). Used by DVD and China Video Disc (CVD). It is also the 
"official" SVHS resolution. 
352 X 288 (240 NTSC). Used by VCD and DVD. It is also the "official" VHS resolution 

The official names for those resolutions, come from US and there are defined like 
this: 

720 X 576 (480 NTSC): CCIR-601, Full PAL/NTSC Studio resolution. 
704 X 576 (480 NTSC) as 1/1 D1 or simply as D1(Sometimes this resolution is 702 X 
576/480). It is the TV Broadcast resolution 
528 X 576 (480 NTSC) as 3/4 D1. It is supposed to be the Laser Disc resolution, but 
ain't. I'll explain later 
480 X 576 (480 NTSC) as 2/3 D1. It is the SVCD resolution. 
352 X 576 (480 NTSC) as 1/2 D1. Used by DVD and CVD 
The VCD resolution is 352 X 288 (240 NTSC) and it is called CIF- 601. 

In Europe and especially Far East Asia, people tend to use other names to describe the 
legal DVD - Video resolutions.
704 X 576 as D1 
352 X 576 as D2 
352 X 288 as D4 
704 X 288 as D3.

Laserdisc
The official Laserdisc resolution is 528 X 576/480, but many titles in US, after 1990, 
are using the 544 X 480 resolution. 
That happened because the first "cheap" video projectors in US, were using the VGA 
standard for video in. Of course, those machines were for professional use with PCs. 
But with the use of special (and cheap) connectors/adaptors or the "famous" VGA - out 
connection of specific Laserdiscs, it was possible for the very first time, for US 
video enthusiast, to have big picture at there houses. It was the only true solution 
for the first home theatres (the term "home cinema" came later...). 

Unfortunately, VGA is not based on CCIR-601, so a picture adaption is needed (VGA is 
640 X 480). In other words, the picture aspect was wrong and always a part or some 
parts of the picture was not in use. Because of Laser Disc limitations, the use of pan 
and scan method (like DVD - Video) wasn't possible. The only solution without 
compatibility problems and no cost, was to "upgrade" the Laserdisc resolution, 
unofficially, to 544 X 480.

In Europe, the success of Laserdisc was minimal, so the few released PAL titles, 
continue to use the official resolution for PAL (528 X 576). In theory, there is a 544 
X 576, but I never saw a PAL laserdisc using this resolution. 

The DVB/ -s -t -c resolutions 
The DVB transmissions became mainstream in Europe in 1996 and today are mainstream in 
US too. In the last five years, the European Union (E.U.), forced all television and 
radio providers of E.U. Members, to turn their services digital. So, except Germany 
and partly France (where the interest for analog satellite TV still is huge), 
everything today is digital.
 
DVB is based on mpeg 2 (like DVD) and supports resolutions from full CIRR - 601 (top 
quality) to CIF (lowest quality). Any resolution between those limits can be a DVB 
picture resolution, with any bitrate/size. The correct output picture aspect is 
accomplished by the use of the pan and scan method, which takes place between the 
Digital/Analog conversion,

I have missed that one; however, it is wrong - if people hold them, then
they become MORE valuable, and thus you have high deflation - the purchasing
power of money grows - which is great. And if their value gets so big that
subdivisions start to become necessary, one can always convert them to "new
betabucks", each old one being worth a million new ones. End of problem.

tracking tech: J. Bell-like vehicle tracker used by locals, malfunctions

[Major Variola (ret)]

 Investigators had a list of 20 possible suspects, but Fischer was moved
to the top. Detectives said
they attached a tracking device to her car, hoping to catch her in the
act.

On Sunday, more than 30 razor blades were found hidden in Alicia Park in
Mission Viejo. Had
Fischer been there, the tracking device should have recorded her visit
to the park. But the device
malfunctioned.
