The LX521.4 loudspeaker system can be configured from different components. In all cases the acoustic platform must be as I designed it, as well as the crossover/equalizer transfer functions, which determine the signal level and phase for each driver in the acoustic baffle. Baffle shape and drivers define the all-important polar response of the loudspeaker.
April 2017 - Here is an update to show where I am with my two LX521.4 systems, which are set up in different homes and rooms. I remind you that I design and build loudspeakers for my own satisfaction and pleasure, striving for a maximum in realism in a normal living space from a well done recording. The DSP System below was my starter. The crossover/equalizer transfer functions where derived from acoustic free-field measurements and implemented by a miniDSP 4x10HD.
The ASP System below came about when I had exactly duplicated the miniDSP 4x10HD derived transfer functions in analog circuitry using operational amplifiers, resistors and capacitors. It started as an engineering exercise to eliminate the digital signal processor and have a loudspeaker, which operates from L and R electrical input to acoustic output in the analog signal domain with which I am most familiar. Of course the input signal itself has most likely gone through digital processes these days. But at least there is a clear dividing line.
Performance wise my reference has been the PB6 System below. The ASP.4 and PB6 systems match to a degree where it is difficult for me (I am not the youngest person anymore) to hear a difference or to say which I prefer. But when I play files from a hard disk HD directly into the front panel USB port of the Sonica DAC, then I am able to hear differences between a 96kHz/24bit file and a DSD file of the same recording. When I play the same files from the HD of the PC, then JRiver converts the DSD file to 96kHz/24bit and I hear no difference. The ASP System has thus become my highest resolution system.
My plan is to offer five PCBs as the standard configuration. Two boards are the ASP.4s, another is a power supply that can be configured to accept an external Mean Well +/-15 GP50A14E-R1B a wall wart like the ADU160100Z5401 offered by Jameco (US, Canada) purely for convenience and clearly not optimal, or an externally housed center tapped transformer like the Hammond 1182J15 that can also connect through the DIN plug (legends on the panel will be changed from below). The power board also has an option for balanced inputs. The other two boards are panels that will fit the Hammond case I sent to you but with neatly countersunk holes. It is intended to double as a template that users can create their own panel with.
The ASP.4 should soon become accessible for DIY via blank PCBs at $75 each or as a built up unit for $799. The ASP.4 circuit diagram has been shown on the LX521.4 owner support page since 12/2016. See the LX521.4 Store.
The AT528NC Class D, 8x 200W, power amplifiers are essential to my ASP System's perfection. They have extremely low distortion even at low output power levels where much of the music detail is happening. Yet the amplifiers also have enormous output current capability to keep the woofers under full control.
Finally there is the USB isolator and reclocker. I am still surprised that it is needed in my systems. My primary source for sound is a notebook PC's USB port. The PC travels with me between the two LX521.4 systems in different locations. I thought a Sonica DAC would not benefit, but it does. The DAC performs flawlessly for files from a thumb drive plugged into its front panel USB port. It processes DSD files directly and without converting them to 96 kHz PCM files as does JRiver in my PC. I was surprised to hear differences between DSD and 96k/24bit versions of the same recording.
This device points to problems with the digital data and spurious signal streams coming from the USB port of my PC. I will investigate this. The engineer in me wants an answer. The writing in German or in English on the afi website is not very clear about the internal workings of the machine. And I do not know enough about digital bus traffic. I cut open a USB printer cable and found loosely twisted data lines and shielding that is only connected to the metal connector shell at the source end (as specified!). That makes the "shield" a nice antenna for EMI injection! The data lines are probably poorly terminated, which will cause reflections and thus jitter.
But in the meantime I am happy that the afi+USB does such a great job.
The LX-Store informs you about the components that are available for building or buying an LX521.4 System.
The LX521 Construction Plans are your license and access to up-to-date Owner-Support information and the closed pages of the OPLUG owner support forum.
Details for above items, what to build yourself or where to buy parts and assemblies, are given below.
I sell Construction Plans and blank printed circuit boards for the ASP. I can order and have ATI power amplifiers shipped to you from the factory at a special price. An order form is at the bottom of this page. Everything else can be supplied by others, if you own Construction Plans. For cables and interconnects see FAQ8.
The LX521 was designed for easy DIY construction and without sacrifice to acoustic performance. It is important not to change the baffle contours, the frequency response of the ASP, or the passive crossover. If you want to experiment or have ideas about improving my design, then I recommend that you first build and listen to the LX521 having followed the instructions in the Construction Plans. Support of the LX521 loudspeakers is provided via a web page to which owners of the LX521 Construction Plans have access. Additional construction and test information, revisions and updates are posted on that page. Check it out before you start building.
When building the speaker cabinets yourself, you will need to have some woodworking capability. At minimum a circular saw and a saber saw are required, but not a router. Alternatively, NC machined wood panels and partially assembled cabinets are available from different suppliers. For the crossover you must load and solder components onto a printed circuit board, and connect wires where indicated. The finished assembly must to be tested electrically to avoid using the costly drivers as fault indicators. A digital voltmeter, a 20 Hz to 20 kHz sinewave signal source and AA-cell batteries are sufficient for spot checks. Acoustic measurements are not necessary, because of the consistency in production of the SEAS drivers used.
The LX521 Construction Plans are the license to build the loudspeakers for personal use. They are also required when subassemblies are purchased from other suppliers.
Printed circuit boards are essential for assembling the Analog Signal Processor electronics. The ASP divides the incoming left and right channel audio signals into woofer, midrange and tweeter channels for driving the power amplifiers of left and right loudspeakers.
The LX521 ASP is assembled on the most recent ORION ASP printed circuit board. It supports balanced and unbalanced inputs. Tweeter, midrange and two woofer output connectors are unbalanced. Outputs can be attenuated to match power amplifier voltage gains if they are not identical. Silk screened component outlines and numbers on the pcb simplify loading the board. The board material is FR4 with two layers of 1 oz copper, has plated through holes, top and bottom solder mask and top silk screen. It is 0.062" thick and measures 7.6" x 7". This industrial strength circuit board makes for easy soldering of components. A praxis session is strongly recommended in order to learn temperature and timing to get to wet and shiny looking solder joints. Cold solder joints, solder bridges or burnt pads and damaged components can turn into a nightmare when trouble-shooting a dysfunctional circuit. Two boards are required for the ASP.
Instead of the discontinued ASP a Digital Signal Processor can be used to generate the appropriate woofer, midrange and tweeter drive signals for the power amplifiers, which are connected to the speakers.
A Configuration File is provided with the LX521 Construction Plans, which needs to be loaded via USB from a computer into the DSP unit. The miniDSP 4x10 Hd is ready made with both analog and digital inputs and has volume control. The unit can be trained to recognize Sony/Philips IR remote controls. It thus also replaces the preamplifier, which is required in front of the ASP above. But the DSP lacks an indication of volume level.
For many years I have been using ATI power amplifiers. In their product line the 12-channel AT6012 power amplifier is well suited to the LX521. Each driver would have its own 60 W stereo amplifier, which can provide as much peak current or peak voltage as I would ever want in my 100 m3 listening room at The Sea Ranch.
The AT6012 is rated at 60 W per channel into 8 ohm FTC full bandwidth output power, with all 12 channels driven simultaneously. The power supply has high current reserve and a 2000 VA transformer. A pair of LX521 speakers utilizes 8 amplifiers, the LX521.4 would take 10 amplifiers. A separate amplifier channel is allocated to each of the 10" dipole woofer drivers to obtain output capability that is commensurate with the midrange, yet minimizes bottoming and the risk of mechanical damage to the woofers, or having to reduce the speaker's low frequency extension. At very high sound levels the amplifiers clip first, which gives a clearly audible warning to turn down the volume.
The AT6012 exhibits good low power intermodulation distortion performance as seen in the graphs above. It is primarily 3rd order at 1 W in response to equal amplitude input signals at 1 kHz and 5.5 kHz driving an 8 ohm resistor. Harmonic distortion products are always of lower amplitude than intermodulation products. Unlike for many Class A/B amplifiers the distortion does not increase as power goes down. A 100 mW output level is not unrealistic. Early transistor radios had 50 mW output stages and made quite a bit of noise.
The AT1806 is a six-channel power amplifier rated at 180 W per channel. It can drive the 3-way LX521, if the two 10" drivers in each woofer baffle are connected in parallel to one amplifier. The parallel drivers present a low 2 ohm impedance to the power amplifier around 100 Hz. The power amplifier driving this load must be capable of at least 200 W into 4 ohm. The AT1806 is capable of producing higher bass output volume from the LX521 than the AT6012 and handle extreme loudness peaks. The DSP crossover/equalizer requires no modification for its use.
But, the higher power has the potential to bottom out and damage the woofers below 40 Hz and to overheat or stress LXmini woofer/ midrange and tweeter with high level test or transient signals. I never had a failure with program material even at extreme volume levels.
The intermodulation distortion performance of the AT1806 at low power levels is exemplary.
The AT1202 is a two-channel power amplifier rated at 120 W per channel. It would be needed to drive left and right LX521 tweeters, if the AT1806 powers each dipole woofer driver individually and also the LX521 lower mid upper midrange drivers with their passive crossover. The AT1202 is a little safer for the LX521 tweeter than the AT1806. In any case caution is advised with such high power amplifier setup. A second AT1202 would be needed for the 10-channel LX521.4 to drive the upper midrange drivers.
The intermodulation distortion performance of the AT1202 at low power levels is very good.
Note that my power description is for peak voltage equivalent power. A 2 Vpeak sinewave at 1 kHz and a 2 Vpeak sinewave at 5.5 kHz superimpose and fluctuate at a 4.5 kHz rate as seen on an oscilloscope. The fluctuation has 4 Vpeak amplitude, which I call equivalent to "1 W" for the conventional single frequency sinusoid of 4 Vpeak or 2.83 Vrms across 8 ohm. Similarly the "100 mW" description is for 1.26 Vpeak of the superimposed sinusoids. The actual dissipated powers are 500 mW and 50 mW into 8 ohm.
Harmonic distortion products are below 0.01% for the three amplifiers measured. But musical signals are rarely single sinusoids. Intermodulation distortions are always higher than harmonic distortions and their spectral distribution is in my opinion a better differentiator between amplifiers than a single harmonic distortion number.
A wide range of power amplifiers can be used for the LX521. The primary requirement is that they all have the same voltage gain, otherwise you need to adjust the gain defined by the LX521 configuration file for the miniDSP 4x10HD. I have heard good things from a trusted source about the Outlaw 7075 7-channel amplifier, which measures similar to the AT6012. Here are examples for which I have some measurements.
Madisound, the distributor of SEAS drivers in the US, offers a complete LX521 Driver Kit of woofer, midrange and tweeter drivers.
Madisound offers a NC-machined flat-pack of wooden parts for DIY assembly of the baffles.
www.magicLX.com in Germany offers a complete CNC machined wood flat-pack and parts kit, including all drivers, for building the LX521. Different wood finishes are available.

The Hawkeyes are riding a six-game winning streak heading into the first two games of the Big Ten season.
Iowa completed two sweeps at the Drake Invitational on Sept. 8, defeating South Dakota State and Drake before sweeping Eastern Illinois in its home opener on Sept. 9. The last time Iowa swept three different teams in the span of two days was Sept. 19-20, 2008 (Portland, DePaul, Tulsa)
The Hawkeyes doubled their winning streak at the Cyclone Classic. Iowa downed Iowa State in four sets on Sept. 14, and followed up with another four-set win over Wyoming and a five-set victory against Syracuse on Sept. 15.
Iowa was named the Cyclone Classic Champions.
Senior Taylor Louis continues to pace the country in active career kills. Louis' 1,715 career kills leads the NCAA by 154 (Jaali Winters; Creighton) and is 1,692 kills ahead of the country's third leading player (Carlisa May, Arkansas State).
Louis ranks first in the Big Ten with 4.41 kills per set and is second in the Big Ten with 181 total kills.
Louis's 4.41 kills per set places her 23rd in the NCAA and her 4.77 points per set is good for 30th.
DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS
Iowa's defense has been ranked among the best in the Big Ten in 2018.
Molly Kelly is ranked second in the Big Ten in digs per set with 5.19.
Freshman Hannah Clayton ranks 12th in the Big Ten with 43 total blocks and anchors an Iowa defense that is 10th in the conference in blocks per set with 2.80.
DIGGING FOR GOLD
Senior Molly Kelly has started at libero for the Hawkeyes during the first four weeks of competition.
Kelly's 218 digs ranks first in the Big Ten and her 5.19 digs per set is second in the conference.
Nationally, Kelly is 34th in digs per set (5.19).
At the Cyclone Classic, Kelly recorded 66 digs and 5.08 digs per set over three matches and was named to the All-Tournament team.
ORR ROWING THE BOAT
Sophomore setter Brie Orr returns to Iowa as the team's premier setter after recording 1,201 assists in 2017 – the second most assists in single-season program history since the 25-point scoring format was implemented in 2008.
Orr ranks ninth all-time in career assists (1,489), trailing Jitka Stehnova (2,159) for eighth all-time.
Orr leads Iowa with 430 assists through 11 matches and averages 10.24 assists per set, which is eighth in the Big Ten.
FRESHMEN PLAYING TIME
After four weeks of play, four freshmen have seen extended playing time – Courtney Buzzerio, Amiya Jones, Hannah Clayton, and Maddie Slagle. All four have played in every match this season.
Buzzerio, a native of Chino Hills, California, ranks third on the team with 31 assists and chipped in a career-high eight assists against No. 13 Washington on Aug. 31.
Jones, a middle blocker from Indianapolis, is second on the team in total blocks with 42. She reached a career-high with seven blocks in a win over Drake on Sept. 8.
Clayton, a middle blocker, hails from Bloomington, Illinois. She leads the team in total blocks with 43.
Slagle, a defensive specialists from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, is fifth on the team with 55 digs.
SCOUTING MICHIGAN STATE
Michigan State holds a 12-1 record entering Big Ten play.
The Spartans lead the conference in service aces with 96, 15 more than the second place team (Purdue, 78).

Herberg Zeeburg is een voormalige herberg in Amsterdam-Oost. De herberg werd in 1675 gebouwd op destijds nog Diemens grondgebied nabij Fort Zeeburg. Bij de herberg konden schepen aanleggen aan de zogenaamde "Mosselsteiger". Er ontstond een levendige handel in vee, dat er werd ontscheept en soms vetgemest, en in vis. De herberg bezat stallen, schuren, een hooiberg en later een aanlegplaats voor de havenstoomvaartdienst. Het huidige aanzien kreeg de herberg in 1766. In de tweede helft van de 19e eeuw werd er een zestal badhuisjes geplaatst maar dat bleek geen succes. Daarnaast vonden er ook paardenrenwedstrijden plaats. In 1887 verdween de veehandel naar de toen nieuwe Veemarkt. In 1896 kwam de herberg door annexatie van het grondgebied van Diemen, voor de bouw van de Indische buurt, op Amsterdams grondgebied te liggen. Tot 1915 bleef het gebouw als herberg in gebruik.

Daarna werd het gebouw onderdeel van het Gemeentelijk Quarantaine Station, later genaamd Quarantaine Inrichting Zeeburg, samen met een villa en een tiental barakken. In de villa zetelde de directie en in de herberg bevond zich het kantoor. In de jaren dertig kwam het complex, en dus ook de herberg, leeg te staan. In de barakken werden toen vluchtelingen opgevangen.

Na 1945 werd in het complex het Noodziekenhuis Zeeburg gevestigd; de herberg werd het kantoor. In 1975 werd het noodziekenhuis door de komst van het Slotervaartziekenhuis overbodig en verdwenen de barakken. De vroegere herberg bleef echter gespaard als rijksmonument en bestaat nog steeds. De buitenzijde verkeert nog min of meer in oorspronkelijke staat, maar in het pand zijn na renovatie woningen gevestigd, waarmee de indeling volledig veranderde. Het is het oudste gebouw van de Indische Buurt.

The IPM plan :
The Integrated Pest Management Solution
Following the procedures of the Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program, we focus our approach to treatment on eliminating pests, their harborage areas and their entry points to your facility to provide maximum effectiveness with minimal treatment.
IPM is a low or non-chemical alternative of controlling pests through the cooperative teamwork through improving sanitation awareness, proper building exclusion, and low or non-chemical methods of treatment to eliminate a pest infestation to protect the health and safety of employees and the environment.
Components of the IPM program include:
•	Inspection of your facility and its exterior surroundings
•	Identification of the types of pests present
•	Identification and investigation of conditions that contribute to infestations
•	Analysis of current pest activity
•	Recommendations for limiting and preventing future infestations
•	Implementation of mechanical methods for controlling pests
•	Application of highly targeted treatments
•	Continuous evaluation and fine-tuning of service to meet future needs
•	Education of your staff about actions that contribute to pest activity
Non-chemical Pest Control Methods. Non-chemical pest control methods are used where are feasible and efficacious. These include:
•	Sanitation (removing food & water sources)
•	Exclusion
•	Harborage Removal
•	Harborage Denial
•	Trapping & Monitoring
•	Vacuuming
•	Lighting
1.	Sanitation: Sanitation involves cleaning up and/or removing potential food and water sources for pests. The fewer food sources that are present the fewer pests that can survive. Even something as simple as picking up a lemon that has rolled under a table can prevent a significant fruit fly infestation. A regular schedule of cleaning floors, equipment, floor drains, trash receptacles and dumpsters is the best approach to minimize food sources for pests. Water leaks should be repaired promptly, and wet mops should be hung up to dry properly.
2.	Exclusion: Sealing up cracks and holes where pests can enter is the most effective non-chemical method to prevent pests from invading a building. It is impossible, for example, to keep a building free of mouse activity if the doors do not have proper weather-strips. It is important to keep outer doors closed or install tight-fitting screen or storm doors.
3.	Harborage Removal: The less shelter that is available, the fewer number of pests that will be able to survive. Removing piles of debris, cutting tall weeds and eliminating cardboard boxes in storage rooms are examples of harborage removal.
4.	Harborage Denial: If a harborage cannot be removed, e.g., cracks in interior walls where cockroaches could live, then steps should be taken to deny the pest use of that harborage. The most common procedure used to deny harborages is caulking cracks that may be present - both inside and outside.
5.	Environmental Alteration: Changing the environmental conditions of a room or area so that pests cannot survive there can be an effective long-term strategy. For example, a wet crawlspace under a building can serve as a source of infestation for many different types of pests. Installing ventilators and vapor barriers to dry out the crawlspace prevents most pests from living under the building.
6.	Interception: When building occupants or workers examine goods and items for pests as they are brought into the building, they often can prevent numerous introductions of pests, especially German cockroaches. This is especially important for food items, in particular bagged or boxed produce.
7.	Trapping & Monitoring: Rodents can be effectively controlled in many situations using traps alone. Flying insects can be controlled with properly placed insect light traps in conjunction with good sanitation and exclusion practices. For insect control, traps work best for monitoring activity of insects and other arthropod pests.
8.	Vacuuming: Physical removal of pests by vacuuming is rapidly gaining wide acceptance. This technique is especially effective for cockroach and spider control.
9.	Heat & Freezing: Heat is currently being effectively used by Terminix in Florida and California to control termites and wood-boring beetles in structures in a process called CleanHeat. Terminix is also using heat in some situations to "flush" cockroaches out of their harborages. By combining vacuuming with flushing insects with hot air, pest control can effectively be accomplished in some situations without occupants having to vacate the area. Items (e.g., food) that are thought to be infested may be frozen at zero degrees Fahrenheit for at least 6 days - if the items can safely be frozen.
10.	Lighting: Exterior lights often attract large numbers of nighttime flying insects to buildings where they can enter the building. These insects also serve as food for spiders, which promotes spider infestations. Exterior lighting should always be changed to sodium vapor lamps where feasible to attract as few insects as possible to a building.
Contributing Conditions. At the heart of an effort to minimize pesticide usage and still maintain a relatively pest-free environment is the correction or elimination of conditions that may be contributing to a pest infestation. All pests need food, water, and shelter to survive. The less of these available to pests, the fewer number of pests that can survive in a given area.
In most cases, it is impossible to remove all of the food, water and shelter sources available to pests. A certain number of pests from the pest population will typically be able to survive.
Cleaning up food debris, fixing leaks and removing potential harborages accomplishes lowering the population size so that it will be easier to control the infestation while using a minimum of insecticide applications.
Facility Cooperation - Achieving goals of an IPM concept are difficult unless the facility provides its full cooperation in correcting the contributing conditions pointed out by the pest management professional. The longer these contributing conditions are allowed to persist, the greater the need to use pesticides to produce the goal of a pest-free environment.
Non-residual Pesticide Applications. Many people believe that IPM means that pesticides will not be used; however, IPM does not preclude the use of pesticides. In some cases, pesticides will need to be implemented, while in other cases, pesticides may not be needed at all. Every situation is different and the Terminix service professional is the person who must analyze the situation and choose the appropriate control measure including when and where to use pesticides.
If a pesticide application is required, "low impact" products or non-residual pesticides with acceptable efficacy should be chosen for IPM programs. Low impact insecticides include baits, naturally occurring materials such as boric acid and silica aerogel dusts, and pyrethroids. These materials generally have very low mammalian toxicity and still remain very effective at controlling insects and other arthropod pests.
Cultural Recommendation
A written sanitation report following each service outlining recommendations for addressing contributing conditions that may be present. To reduce the need for pesticide use, these recommendations should be corrected within a reasonable time frame. The following list details general recommendations to offer the staff of a facility.
•	Keep stored food products refrigerated or in tightly sealed containers.
•	Dispose of packing materials, such as grocery bags, cardboard boxes, pallets and shipping boxes that may harbor pests.
•	Change food suppliers to avoid future infestations.
•	Identify and isolate foods infrequently used that have been a source of pest infestations.
•	Upgrade food storage, waste handling and cleaning programs to reduce foods available to pests.
•	Store goods on shelves away from walls to allow for cleaning behind them.
•	Clean exterior and interior of ovens and hoods before grease buildups occur.
•	Avoid leaving food and soiled dishes exposed overnight.
•	Keep indoor garbage in lined and covered containers. Empty daily.
•	Inspect for and clean up spills in trash rooms and around dumpsters.
•	Monitor trash containers frequently and keep clean with fresh trash liners.
•	Keep dumpster lids closed and drain plugs in place.
•	Empty and clean recycling bins frequently.
•	Empty mop buckets and remove sour rags from janitorial closets.
•	Clean and screen floor drains.
•	Regularly vacuum carpets, curtains, and upholstery.
•	Remove lint accumulations from the edges of carpets, crevices, between floorboards, air ducts and registers.
•	Remove unnecessary charts and crevices in exterior walls.
•	Mount sinks and other fixtures away from walls to facilitate cleaning.
•	Install tight exterior doors and loading dock doors fitted with anti-pest tension strips or sweeps and keep doors shut when not in use.
•	Caulk crevices around doors, windows, vents, and other openings.
•	Install insect proof screens on windows, vents, and other openings.
•	Repair plumbing and roof leaks and reduce condensation problems.
•	Drain puddles, including drip zones under air conditioners.
•	Clean gutter and drains.
•	Eliminate bird roosting sites and old nests in which pests can breed.
•	Trim or remove foundation plantings, vines, and overhanging trees to reduce pest harborages and entry routes and to reduce moisture levels around the foundation.
•	Keep grass short to remove cover for pests.
•	Substitute trickle irrigation for overhead watering of trees and shrubs.
•	Reduce the number of foundation plants, especially flowering perennials that attract pests.
•	Avoid bringing insect-infested flowers indoors.
•	Substitute crushed shells, stone, or gravel for bark or other organic mulches.
•	Leave a bare strip of gravel or concrete around foundations to discourage invasion by outdoor pests.
•	Use sodium vapor lamps outside to attract fewer flying insects.
•	Move exterior lighting away from the building.
•	Keep all exterior electrocuting-type light traps at least 50 feet from the building.
•	Crumbs from lunches and snacks eaten outside of normal dining areas create feeding opportunities for pests in other sites.
•	Insecticides used by occupants or maintenance personnel may scatter pests into new areas.
•	Recently painted walls may cause pests to move to new areas because of temporary irritation from fumes.
Monitoring. Un-baited "sticky" monitoring traps may be placed in key situations for pest activity to capture pests as they crawl along walls, in cabinets and similar areas. The purpose of monitoring is to determine which pests, if any, are present, to determine the extent of activity, to pinpoint where pest harborages might be located, and to determine where pests may be entering.
In general, monitoring traps should be placed under sinks and in some storage areas. Other areas where monitoring traps should be placed include motor compartments of coolers and kitchen equipment and in cabinets or on shelves where items cannot be easily removed on a frequent basis. Monitoring traps may be secured to both vertical as well as horizontal surfaces.
The primary focus of monitoring should be for cockroaches. A secondary use of these traps may be for monitoring occasional invaders, including silverfish, earwigs, crickets and spiders. Although these arthropods may not be specifically targeted pests for the IPM program, their capture may provide useful information.
If employees report seeing some unidentified crawling arthropod, e.g., spiders, monitoring traps should be placed in those areas to capture specimens for identification. Depending on the situation, long-term monitoring may then be initiated and maintained.
Additional monitoring traps may be placed in other areas as an aid in follow-up evaluation of treatments, especially for cockroaches. For follow-up evaluations, monitoring traps may be baited with a food attractant, such as a bit of banana or a spot of peanut butter.
Another type of monitoring for ants is known as "pre-baiting." When ants such as crazy ants, ghost ants, and Pharaoh ants are not present in sufficient numbers to readily observe ant trails back to the colony's location, peanut butter, jelly, Karo syrup etc., (without toxicant) may be placed along likely ant trails. After 15-60 minutes, a significant ant trail is often readily visible that can be followed to the source of the infestation - the colony's location.
Monitoring traps should be replaced when they become dusty, damaged, or capture a number of pests. The numbers of pest captured and where they are captured may be recorded. This information may be of future benefit to the overall IPM program.
Pheromone Traps. Traps, which use a sex attractant pheromone, may be used to monitor some species of food infesting beetles or moths. Areas where these traps should be used are large food storage rooms or warehouses.
Insect Light Traps. Insect light traps (ILTs) utilize ultraviolet UV light waves to attract flies and other flying insects to traps where they should be captured. Electrocuting traps use an electric grid to "zap" insects while other ILTs do not "zap" the insects, but rather use a glue trap behind or under the UV lights to passively capture insects. Whether ILTs will be beneficial and where they might be placed should be determined for each building during the initial IPM survey or in response to a specific flying insect situation.
Rodent Control Devices. Several types of traps and rodenticide bait stations are the two types of devices used to control rodent infestations. To eliminate a rodent infestation, every rat or mouse must find and interact with a device and then commit to that device. To achieve this goal, a variety of control devices need to be used in every rodent control situation. Using only one type of trap or relying on rodenticide baits alone usually results in failure to eliminate a rodent infestation.
A brief summary of the institution's approach to sustainable landscape management:
A brief description of how the institution protects and uses existing vegetation, uses native and ecologically appropriate plants, and controls and manages invasive species:
Grounds and the Office of Facilities Management uses a combination of plants native to Texas and plants from other areas that are adapted to our climate and growing conditions. We also select other varieties that are recommended in several excellent books on native Texas plants. Availability from local nurseries and growers is a primary concern because many of the natives are not grown in sufficient quantities to landscape a campus the size of UTA. Also, Grounds selects plant material that will enhance what is existing on campus and this sometimes requires the use of non-native plants.Some of the native plants that are used are:
- Black Jack Oak
- Post Oak
- Eastern Red Cedar
- Pecan
- Blacknut Walnut
- Bur Oak
- Chinkapin Oak
- American Elm
- Cedar Elm
- Rusty Blackhaw Viburnum
- Possumhaw Holly
- Smooth Sumac
- Flameleaf Sumac
- Red Bud
- Rough Leaf Dogwood
- Mexican Plum
- Eve's Neclace
- Reverchon Hawthorn
- Parsley Hawthorn
- Scarlet Buckeye
- Common Persimon
- Rhamnus Caroliniana
- Mexican Buckeye

UT Arlington's award-winning composting program is not only practical and environmentally-friendly but is an outstanding learning tool and model for others considering similar programs. Items that can be and are collected and composted include:
A brief description of the institution's organic soils management practices:
The Upper Trinity River drains into eight major drainage basins
located within the City of Arlington. One of these is Johnson
Creek, which is fed by the on-campus Trading House Creek. Due
to regionally sandy and highly erodible soils, a flat topology, and
dense urbanization, Johnson Creek and its seven sister basins are
prone to rapid stormwater runoff and severe erosion, which must
be managed to prevent degradation of the area's waterways.
The University addresses stormwater impacts through two
distinct approaches: a stormwater management plan and
restorative design.
■■ In 2008 the University hired a full-time stormwater
management coordinator to oversee its Stormwater
Management Plan, which is available at our website. The plan
includes best management practices for protecting water from
stormwater discharges, illegal dumping, and spills.
■■ In 2008 the School of Architecture's Master of Landscape
Architecture program spearheaded an effort to reconceptualize
the western portion of the campus. At the
present time, the Trading House Creek flows between two
parking lots and drains millions of gallons of water per year
from storm sewers, which regularly flood. The designers
moved and added buildings and created water cisterns,
catchment areas, and other structures to manage flooding.
The project inspires new thinking about balancing human
and ecological factors to address stormwater issues.

GROUNDS MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
DE-ICING CAMPUS
(1)	The Grounds Maintenance Department keeps about 500 lbs. of De-Icing Compound on hand in the Grounds Maintenance Warehouse. If the need arises to order more during a storm, it usually is delivered the next day. The use of chemicals should be limited to major building entrances, steps and handicapped ramps because of the danger of damaging concrete surfaces with the compound. It is especially harmful to aggregate surfaces. The De-Icing compound works well if the ice is fairly thin, the temperature is not below about 25°F, and the sun is shining or at least day light. In the darkness, it usually just melts little holes in the ice that will then just re-freeze. A bucket of De-Icer and sand are kept at ARRI (Automation and Robotics Research Institute), ARDC (Arlington Regional Data Center) and the Santa Fe building, for the Building Attendant to apply.
(2)	Bagged sand and bulk sand are kept on hand. One utility scooter is equipped with a sand-spreading attachment. Cyclone fertilizer spreaders are also used to spread sand. The sand is used mainly on aggregate sidewalks in spots that have historically been problem areas, mostly in shady spots. These include the North side of the Life Science Building (where the aggregate walks had to be re-surfaced due to damage from De-Icing compound), the mall area between Ransom Hall and the University Center, the front entrance and steps at the Library and others. Sand is also to be spread on the "sharp" curve at the intersection of West Nedderman and South Nedderman in the SW corner of the Davis hall parking lot.
(3)	For the Pedestrian Bridges over Cooper Street, rubber non-slip safety matting has been purchased to roll out over the top of the ice on the bridges. Two (2) lanes 3ft wide for a total width of 6ft is to be laid on each of the three bridges. The bridge on Mitchell Street can be treated with De-Icing compound. However, use of this chemical is not to be used on the Cooper Street bridges as it will cause deterioration of the metal support structure as well as damage to vehicles passing below. The rubber matting is to be stored in the equipment rooms below each bridge. Each roll is a maximum length of approximately 32 ft. At this length, the roll weighs approximately 125 lbs. This is light enough for two people to safely carry over ice.
(4)	De-Icing maps are kept on hand ready to be used on the campus. These maps show priority areas for De-Icing. (See sample attached). The estimated time to completely De-Ice the campus is two hours using 12 – 15 people.
(1)	When the weather forecast predicts an accumulation of ice or snow, two (2) pickup trucks and the sanding scooter are to be parked inside the bay at the Grounds Maintenance Warehouse where they are to be loaded with chemicals, sand, shovels and gloves.
POLICY – De-Icing Campus
(2)	A current list of employees and their phone numbers is kept on hand. Everyone is briefed on procedures and the use of chemicals, supplies and equipment, and is provided with a De-Icing map of the campus. Several Grounds Keepers that live near the campus are alerted to be ready to respond quickly, if they are phoned early in the morning.
(3) If the weather forecasters' predict a very good chance of
freezing rain, ice or snow, people are asked, in advance, to report at 6:00am. If the ice event does not happen, these people resume their normal duties.
(4)	The Grounds Supervisor will check the weather conditions from his home starting around 5:00 a.m. Depending on the severity of the accumulation, if there is only a small amount of patchy ice or snow that, in their judgment, would not be severe enough to close the University, they will phone a small crew to arrive on campus around 6:00 a.m. De-Icing compound does not work well before daylight and often re-freezes if applied before daylight.
(5)	If there is a heavier accumulation, the inclement weather number is called for the announcement of whether the University will be open or closed. Usually the announcement is made by 6:00 a.m., which allows time to call in a crew to start De-Icing procedures around 6:30 a.m. if the University were to open.
If the University has a delayed opening the entire Grounds Staff
reports to work two hours before the University opens.
(6)	As the De-Icing procedures start, first priority is to be given to the Student Health Center, the slippery tile steps at the Nursing Building and the pedestrian bridges. Then complete the areas marked on the De-Icing map. After that, give special attention to problem areas that have been noticed. Then go back and start scraping ice off of steps, etc with shovels, if necessary. Respond to calls from the Campus Police and others. Barricades are to be placed at all entrances to the handicapped ramps at the center bridge over Cooper Street due to the steep grade. Place barricades at the walk-over connection between Ransom, Carlisle and Preston Halls. The De-Icing compound has, historically not worked well there because the area is shaded from sunlight and the walk-over remains slippery.
(7)	During the day, when the forecast predicts freezing temperatures for the night, clear away water on walking surfaces that would re-freeze if it were left standing.
(8)	If an announcement is made to close the campus on a regular class and work day, someone is to be sent as close to 8:00 a.m. as possible to check the greenhouse, water the plants and apply some De-Icer at the Student Health Center and at the Campus Police Station
(9)	After the inclement weather has improved and temperatures are to remain above freezing, sweep and wash the sand and the De-Icing compound off of the concrete areas. Roll up the rubber matting on the bridges and put it back in the storage areas. Re-order De-Icing compound and sand to replenish the stock.

Does Apprendi Apply to Criminal Fines?
If there is a "sleeper" blockbuster case that the United States Supreme Court might decide this term it could be whether Apprendi applies to criminal fines.
This AP report on the oral argument in Southern Union, the Apprendi fines case, reported that "several justices sounded skeptical of the government's case for upholding the penalty against Texas-based Southern Union Co. over its improper storage of mercury in a building in Pawtucket." In part, the story said:
Unlike other Supreme Court disputes involving corporations, this case does not appear to divide the justices along ideological lines. In the sentencing cases, conservative Justice Antonin Scalia has been the most forceful advocate for reining in judges and requiring juries to find any facts that could lead to a longer sentence.
Scalia said he sees the Southern Union case as a logical extension of the court's earlier rulings. He said it would be odd to require a jury to establish facts that lead to even the shortest jail term, yet give judges freedom to decide on fines that "will make a pauper of you."
But another conservative justice, Samuel Alito, seemed more open to the administration's argument. Alito, a former prosecutor, has been more supportive of the government's side in sentencing cases.
Oral arguments can, at times, be misleading, but the argument in this case is posted here at the Supreme Court's official website.

Just as there are different reasons that people volunteer in the community, each volunteer has specific values, different needs to be fulfilled, and different strengths to offer to Extension programs. Understanding these characteristics and utilizing them in assigning the appropriate volunteer role will result in more success in their volunteer experience. Utilizing True Colors® when assigning volunteer roles and developing working groups and committees has proven effective in our county 4-H programs. Conflicts between volunteers who do not work well together have been lessened due to reassigning them to roles that best fit their personality types.

OnePlus 2 Will Feature 5.5 Inch Screen, 4 GB RAM And 1080p Display
View the article's original source
Author: Omar Sohail
All the hardware specifications of OnePlus 2 are unraveling one by one. Earlier we had published news that the upcoming mobile powerhouse was going to feature a price tag that would be less than $450. If users are going to pay far more than what they originally paid for OnePlus One, then the startup Chinese will most likely have incorporated some impressive components inside its flagship offering. Just so you know, the following specs are impressive, and play along nicely with the price tag of the device as well.
OnePlus 2 Loaded With Several Hardware Goodies, The Best One Being A 1080p Display
Thanks to a Weibo user @KJuma, we have received information (in the form of an image present below) that OnePlus 2 will not only be featuring a RAM count of 4 GB, but this memory will be running at DDR4 speeds, along with a 5.5 inch display that will be rendering a 1080p display. Before this revelation, it was stated that the screen size of the handset with be in between 5.5 to 5.7 inches. Looks like OnePlus decided to maintain the number of pixels and screen size between both of its smartphones.
In an effort to prevent the overheating of OnePlus 2, the device will be running V2.1 of Snapdragon 810. While we cannot confirm right now as to how the chipset is going to perform during its benchmarking run, we will be giving OnePlus 2 the benefit of the doubt. Moving on, the Chinese firm has upgraded the rear camera sensor and total battery capacity too. OnePlus 2 will be featuring a 16 MP rear shooter coupled with a 5 MP front camera sensor.
While the image states that 3 GB of RAM will be present, keep in mind that OnePlus plans to reveal several models of its OnePlus 2
A 3,300 mAh battery will be present in the upcoming handset, and while it is only a 300 mAh increase compared to the cell present in OnePlus One, it will be sufficient in delivering a satisfactory backup time to its user. The image also reveals that 64 GB of on-board storage will be present, but there is no mention of a MicroSD storage slot, which is thoroughly disappointing.
As for a final upgrade, OnePlus 2 will feature a full metal chassis, which only means that you will be getting a combination of both performance and appealing cosmetics from the 'somewhat affordable' mobile powerhouse. Let us hope the smartphone does not disappoint when it makes its way for a public announcement on July 27.

The king of laid-back acoustic Boogie Rock, J.J. Cale started his career in Los Angeles. A few demos later and a lack of a record deal sent him packing back to his home base of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Fortunately, a young Eric Clapton heard and recorded a version of Cale's "After Midnight" in 1970. The success of this version, as well as Clapton's version of Cale's "Cocaine" in the later 1970s, allowed him a constant source of revenue that would aid his low-profile career. Often chastised for not veering off the path of dusty sounding, low-key blues, his understated originality justifies such obstinacy.

Live at Great Woods
Recorded in September of 1991, originally for Japanese TV, The Allman Brothers Band's beloved Live At Great Woods showcases the classic American rock band reaching a new generation of audiences. Original band members Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts, Butch Trucks and Jaimoe were joined by new guitarist Warren Haynes, bassist Allen Woody and percussionist Marc Quiñones in one of the most powerful lineups in the group's history. This set – recorded before a crowd of nearly 20,000 adoring fans at the Great Woods Center for the Performing Arts in Massachusetts – features a top-notch set of fan favorites, with a fiery acoustic mini-set included for good measure. This release of Live At Great Woods fills a crucial gap in The Allman Brothers Band's videography: after years of demand, fans can experience the original longform video version of this concert (previously only available on VHS and LaserDisc), with no interruption of the main feature. Finally, fans have nothing standing between them and the top-notch performances of this set.

Folk-rocker Dar Williams takes the stage to perform "I Saw a Bird Fly Away," a piece which encapsulates Williams' ability to combine sensitivity with not only pathos, but also a sharp wit. East Tennessee natives Robinella and the CCstringband close out the show with new songs including "Honey Honey Bee" and "Man Over." Both songs are a testament to the acclaim that this jazz-bluegrass-swing band has earned from not just critics, but fans and peers alike.

Live At the Mountain Jam Festival, Hunter NY
With 2 million paid song downloads through their site MuleTracks, seven critically acclaimed studio records already released, a handful of DVDs and live albums, plus an ever-expanding fanbase and sold-out coast-to-coast tours, Gov't Mule could easily rest on its laurels.

Haynes explains, "We want By A Thread to be a surprise, so we've made a point not to play any of them live until our fans can get the full impact of the new material."
