Shelly, I'll check at home tonight. I may have some of the exact wire that you're looking at and can send you some to play with. One other option to consider if you buy jacketed cables like the two types that you are proposing is to strip the jacket and shield, a semi-cumbersome activity, and then sleve the wire with nylon multifilament. I can help with that too since I have spools of the stuff left over from the Nugget Audio days.

I wouldn't stress/worry about it, Shelly. There are probably 1,000 other things in your house far more likely to kill you than these and a high percentage of those aren't worth a second thought either. If Emotiva thought there was 0.01% chance these would kill you by grounding AC to the back plate and that a third prong would fix it they would have done it. My guess is that they've mitigated that risk through other means.

It was bloody cold and windy here today, currently hovering around 20. Somehow it's supposed to be near 60 on Friday.

I don't know about buncy panties but I do know that you can take a little vacation from this place.

Happy Birthday Dinny!

Damnit. I'm severely cycling poor right now....

For the record, for those not lucky enough to own one of Dr. Wood's originals SO's stands look like a nice alternative. Some day I'll get the wall-mounted Dr. Wood stand I have installed. WAF on that has been pretty low historically but I'm thinking about taking another run at her...

Hells yes!

Patty Griffin - Silver Bell From Patty's website, "Originally recorded 13 years ago and newly mixed by Glyn Johns, Patty’s Griffin’s much sought-after “lost” album, Silver Bell is finally getting an official release. This album features 14 tracks including “Top Of The World” and “Truth #2.” I'll probably follow this up with America Kid. [edit] Goddamnit, I'd forgotten just how much I love Patty Griffin.

I owe you a great debt of gratitude, Shelly, for pushing me to use corn tortillas. My wife still doesn't like them (pfft) hence the 4 flour tortillas in the pan but I'll never go back.

Ellie Goulding - Halcyon Days Kind of a mixed bag, but some of it is pretty decent.

The fax couldn't hack it, Gene. Come back up next summer and I'll make you a batch along with some margaritas.

I prefer mine.

If this is going to be Tom's swan song then I will up the priority level on the calendar.

Glad to hear recovery is going well, Justin.

This. I guess I've gotten soft. My place is not to tell the regular membership how to conduct themselves.

Seriously, this thread sucks. A few of you should take a dose of stfu, fast.

Colin, care to share the recipe for general tso's that you used. Assuming it was a success...

Currently marinating chicken in a mixture of lime juice, salt, pepper, oregano, and olive oil and just finished roasting tomatillos for a fresh batch of salsa verde all in preparation for enchiladas tonight. The chicken will get grilled, shredded and then mixed with cheese for the filling and a portion of the salsa will get mixed with an egg and sour cream to form the topping. Easily one of my favorite meals to make and eat at home.

I think that issue has been largely cured in later revisions, but more research would be required to confirm.

Yes, the torpedo would be a good, lower cost option if you are willing to go the DIY route.

The built in apps remind me an awful lot of an android tablet I had 3 years ago, which is just...weird. Safari in particular.

For those that used to bitch about Android's icons being ugly and simplistic - you must feel sick about iOS 7. Maybe it's the non-retina version on my 2nd Gen iPad but yikes, this is quite the visual departure from prior versions of the OS. I don't think I like it.

Here's to hoping both of you have a great day!

You are correct, frank does exceptional ptp. I was, however, referring to Pete's unique use/integration of ptp and pcb. In particular I liked his use of the backplane board as both the ground plane and layout structure for the individual terminal posts.
