Managed to eat a boiled egg today washed down with a litre of scotch. Simple recipe...... Get an egg, boil the bugger, remove the shell and eat it (salt optional but recommended) wash down throat with whiskey. Liver failure is great! eat nothing and get as pissed as a fart....... it's perfect......

The to be able to ensure them. a good future but one day in the middle of a talk his wife panicked when she discovered that one of her children was discouraged and fed up with studying. The boy always complained saying that because he had to dedicate so many hours to studying and to subjects that he would never use in everyday life something that made a big impression on his mother was the way he spoke to her since he expressed that the richest people do not. At that time her husband Michael met Robert Kiyosaki who contacted him to patent an educational board game that he had created. That was what Sharon was looking for to be able to teach her children in a more didactic way which Michael agreed to patent the Cashflow game which consists of fast living that represents the way the rich do business when they are inside of the little wheel where Japan Phone Number they run without an end nor a goal they are always in the same place without thinking which in our daily life represents the situation in which expenses tend to increase at the same rate as the increase in salary. Robert Kiyosaky creates this game with the intention of helping people to be more capable from a financial point of view. Sharon determined to teach her children a different education shares what the game helped both her children and her since Awakens the financial intelligence within us. Robert Kiyosaki says that when he was years old he attended a public school. to their formal education Sharon realizes that her son was right a good education today is no guarantee of success and the advice to get good grades and get a good job had been a good formula but years ago she had to find new ways to guide her children in their education. You'll be banned as soon as I can make it out of bed you f***er!

First post. Hello. Help. I am reviving my old hifi/vinyl collection and when I got the XCan PSU (F34ADT-8, bought around 2000) out of the box the plastic earth pin was broken off. There was some foul language! Now I know it is 12V AC 500 ma but have no idea of the plug polarity as I am used to centre + or centre - and there are no markings . Money is tight, I was thinking of going to RS or Farnell for a replacement, what do I need to look for? Somewhere here it was said that 1A is better than 500ma. is this true? Edit: I measured the internal diameter of the plug which goes into the XCan and it appears to be 3mm, certainly not 2, so I assume 2.9mm not 2.1mm. OK it seems that what matters is the pin in the amp socket and that is said to be 2.1mm? www.poweradaptorsuk.co.uk/1000ma-1a-12v-12va-acac-ac-output-power-adaptor-135-p.aspThat's what you need. Apologies for not being on the ball but I haven't been well. Best regards, Mike.

Sad to hear that Wilko has passed away. Dr Feelgood and Ian Dury & The Blockheads. Quite a story. RIP. Solid guy Nigel, with a unique guitar playing style, Dr. Feelgood / the Blockheads were lucky to have such a talented "unique" guy in their band but, hey it is also the fact that Ian Dury, Chaz Jankell, Norman Watt Roy, Mick Gallagher, Davey Payne, John Turnbull, Brilleaux, Johnson, Sparks, Potter and Howarth etc. etc. etc. all f**king "unique" and all f**king "legends" Im late to the party replying to your post Nigel but I haven't been that well in my head mate..... think Cyprus Hill "insane in the membrane" all self inflicted and I don't blame anybody but myself..... a litre of scotch per night (and an ashtray full of roaches) is never going to end well but that's what I appear to be calling "living" More like "the living dead" but aren't we all? We are all waiting to die, just a matter of when..... what you choose to do whilst you're waiting to die is totally up to you (live life to the MAX and all that bullshit) but the HARD and brutal fact is when you die you are dust with no recollection of ever being alive.... an inky black silence known as "Death". Bring it on...... I'm looking forward to it! Inky black silence sounds good. Mike.

Hi everyone, Recently i recivied my kit from aliexpress, soildered it and made some testing. While i was soildering the devise - each part except transformer and opamps was tested by lcr/hfe meter - resistors are pretty good - in 1% tolerance to it's values, and around 0.5% between each other. Capacitors are mostly ok, but some Wima's are 100% not Wima's, and 3 of "Nichicon" caps were out of spec by Vloss value(4% vloss on 150uF/35V). Also transistors, regulators and opams provided in kit are absolute crap - transistors and opamps are fake ST Microelectronics, regulators - one fake ST, another two - noname. Replaced main transistors with BD139-16 and BD140-16 from ON Semiconducor, hfe-matched somehow... Small transistors replaced with Faitchild's ones. About opamps - i've tested several opamps(TL072CP, NE5532AP, OPA2134PA, LME49720NA) and for my ear LME49720NA made the best sound. Headphones connectors are pretty good, i even think it's genue Neutrik, volume potentiometer is also good, never had hands on genue Alps, so no comments there The biggest design mistake in this device as i think - ground wire on mains input - i strongly recommend to undo the ground terminal from mains connector, as when ground is connected both on signal source(with any digital stuff) and amplifier there a a LOT of digital noize on amlifier output. Also i managed to get schematics for Beyerdynamic A2 clone - V1-V4 = BD139/BD140, Q3-Q6 = BC546/BC556 Yup, a bag of cheap Chinese fake parts..... best place for them is your nearest bin..... sorry but it would be remiss of me to not tell the truth. Mike.

I would have binned the sound bar after a 'ritual' burning. Or a damned good thrashing with some shrubbery
