First, there's the active-control engine-mount system (ACM), which adjusts the three solenoid-equipped engine mounts to anticipate a lumpy engine cycle and tense up against it. VCM introduces all kinds of weird harmonics and attendant vibration, but Honda answers that issue with several assaults on harshness. By exploiting the controllability of Honda's VTEC valve train, engineers were able to devise a largely hydromechanical system to close and idle the valves and injectors on the rear three cylinders on this transversely mounted engine when the car doesn't need them. Honda calls it variable-cylinder management (VCM), and it's standard equipment on the EX-L. ![]() But the Odyssey EX-L's 3.5-liter, SOHC V-6 engine seeks optimal gas mileage through the use of cylinder deactivation, a much-maligned technology. There is a lot of clever technology in the 2006 Honda Odyssey EX-L's engine bay, which is not what you'd expect from a vehicle that seeks neither amazing gas mileage nor exceptional performance. We could also mention the lazy Susan mounted below the floorboards for sneaky storage, or the rear-passenger conversation mirror integrated into the drop-down sunglass holder, but you get the idea: This is a minivan with serious creature comforts, once you get past the fact that it assumes you will hold a phone to your head and leave your iPod at home. Training family, friends, and other passengers to remember these are power doors that don't need muscling home is an endless task. The driver has a set of buttons for powering the doors, or you can just start the door's opening or closing sequence with its handle a motor wakes up to finish the job. The 2006 Honda Odyssey EX-L's power side doors may seem a mite extravagant until you've owned a minivan for a while and realize your arms always seem out of joint from heaving those big doors to and fro. ![]() The control unit above the Odyssey's rear-seat LCD can be popped out and used as a remote. Wireless headphones round out the package and cleverly turn themselves off whenever you fold the ear cups flat for stowage in the seat-back pouches. A wireless remote control drops down from the same place where the display lives and allows for easy and flexible control of the system. Drawing your attention away from what the 2006 Honda Odyssey EX-L doesn't have is a rear-seat entertainment system, based on a large 9-inch drop-down LCD.

![]() Bottom line is that I do not need this box and yet I confess to suffering gear lust for it.Īs Ashermusic pointed out, specs do not tell the whole story. I love the fact that it is class compliant and will require no driver. And it is going to integrate witjh Logic Pro (which I teach at UCLA BTW) beautifully. And you certainly would have a more convenient, not to mention portable, interface. Based on what Apogee has told me my guess is that you would indeed be stepping down the converter quality a little but unless you have a well-tunded room and really good monitoring system it probably will not be that noticable to you. I have listened to some fairly dreadful sounding stuff over the years that speced out well and vice-versa. Numbers do not always tell the whole story. So, I really want to see the bottom line numbers, Dynamic range and THD noise floor in -db. Everything I have been wanting, and surround monitoring level control. With the ensemble I would have some clean mic pre's similar to my speck, and have dual D/I for my synths, dual headphone to monitor while tracking. It's too bad it would be a downgrade on the conversion. All the features I want and no out of pocket cash. Then sell my PT cards and G4 and have enough for a new G5 quad. I wonder if my apogee converters sound better through a passive volume control like the coleman audio, over the DAC1? Thing is, I could sell my rosetta, DAC1, and my speck 5 pre and pretty much pay for the ensemble and a copy of logic. ![]() I am using a DAC1 now so I can have hi-quality headphone monitoring and volume control. If the quality is there at this price point, that would be amazing. True, but no surround monitor, stereo D/I and dual headphone monitor if I get a symphony w/rosetta. Have you checked out the PCIe Symphony card? If you've already got the Rosetta, it could be a very viable alternative and still give you similar Logic integration.and possibly improved latency over the FW route. What is the dynamic range, and the THD? The rosetta is 114db, and THD -105AD, -103DA everything my DAC1 is and isn't, but again my question, how does it sound? There are no tech specs on the web site. I am going to add surround to my setup and having the volume for all of those channels in the interface is brilliant. Things I like, built in pre's with 2 hi-z ins for instruments, and a monitor section for full 6 or 8 channel surround. Also the monitor section does what my dac1 does plus adds 6 and 8 channel monitoring. It's fairly cheap compared to a rosetta so I was wondering what it sounds like. I was planning to sell the x-digi card and my mix plus cards and buy the fire wire card for the rosetta when I saw the ensemble integrates with logic. I am upgrading the computer to a dual core mac and switching to logic pro 7.2. ![]() I currently use a rosetta 800 and a Dac 1 connected to protools via a x-digimix card. ![]() ![]() Tanks entered the Zaytun district in south of the Palestinian territory’s main city, cutting a key road from the north to the south of the Gaza Strip for more than an hour, witnesses told AFP news journalists in southern Gaza by phone.

On the other hand, RIE says that the population of Western Sahara, "in addition to natives, now includes as many or more people coming from Morocco". On the one hand, the Spanish think tank argues that a sovereign Western Sahara would be "populated only by a few hundred thousand people", which in its opinion does not advise for it to become independent. The Sahrawi organization recalls that, as part of a decolonization process, Western Sahara has the inalienable right to choose independence if its population so wishes, and insists that the Moroccan occupation is illegal.Ī new state that would be too small, RIE saysīut RIE indeed wants to avoid the emergence of a new independent state in North Africa. Western Sahara's pro-independence Polisario Front rejects any autonomy-based solution. The model could also be applied to various regions of Morocco. Under its "advanced regionalization" proposal, Morocco says Western Sahara could be devolved powers such as economic development, energy, education, culture and health, among others. The North African country suggests that the decolonization of Western Sahara be done through an agreement between the parties. RIE's position on the matter largely coincides with Morocco's official position. RIE's view is expressed on its most recent report on the "strategic renewal of the Spanish foreign policy", which was released yesterday. It currently undergoes military occupation by Morocco. The territory continues to be considered a non decolonized country by the UN. Spain is Western Sahara's former colonial master. RIE - which is chaired by Prince Felipe de Borbón and whose board of trustees includes four Spanish ministers- wants the positions by the Moroccans and Sahrawis to evolve so that they ultimately become "convergent with Spain's strategic interests and with an improved regional cooperation within the Maghreb". The Elcano Royal Institute (RIE, Spanish acronym), one of Spain's leading think tanks specializing in foreign policy, believes that Spain should adopt a "more proactive position" in the Western Sahara dispute, and in due course, "propose a genuine and guaranteed self-government-based solution that satisfies the wishes of Morocco and the Polisario Front". Position largely coincides with Morocco's take on the issue.Body calls Spain to be "more proactive" and to "propose" new settlement based on Western Sahara self-government.Elcano Royal Institute argues that an independent Sahrawi state would have "non homogenous, susceptible to radicalization" too small population
![]() Gabriel Byrne portrays Paul Weston, a charming, relentless psychologist, who is seeking a peaceful existence, free of self-doubt and ambivalence. He begins to question his own abilities and motives, so he seeks help from his former mentor and therapist Gina Toll, whom he has not seen for ten years. Psychotherapist Paul Weston has a private practice where he carries out sessions with his patients in his Baltimore home. In February 2022, HBO confirmed that the show would not return again. The 24-episode fourth season premiered on May 23, 2021, and aired four episodes weekly. The third season premiered on October 26, 2010, for a seven-week run, with four episodes per week.

The series was renewed for a second season on June 20, 2008, and production on Season 2 wrapped in early 2009. Season 1 earned numerous honors, including Emmy, Golden Globe and Writers Guild awards. ![]() HBO Canada aired the program simultaneously with HBO in the U.S. The program's format, script and opening theme are based on, and are often verbatim translations of BeTipul. Its executive producer and principal director was Paris Barclay, who directed 35 episodes, the most of any director on the series, and the only one to direct episodes in all three seasons. The program, which stars Gabriel Byrne as Paul, debuted on January 28, 2008, as a five-night-a-week series. The series is about a psychotherapist, 50-something Paul Weston, and his weekly sessions with patients, as well as those with his own therapist at the end of the week. In Treatment is an American drama television series for HBO, produced and developed by Rodrigo Garcia, based on the Israeli series BeTipul ( Hebrew: בטיפול), created by Hagai Levi, Ori Sivan and Nir Bergman. ![]() Click the PC icon in Cheat Engine in order to select the game process.

However, heating not only eases the bottling process by reducing the viscosity of honey (Anklam 1998), but also reduces the water content in honey to prevent fermentation (Subramanian et al. The major constituents of honey are sugars, water, proteins, enzymes, acids and minerals, while the major causes of quality deterioration include heating at high temperatures, high moisture content, adulteration, poor packaging and poor storage conditions (Krell 1996). Proper understanding and standardisation of honey components and attributes that are most vulnerable during processing cannot be ignored. These include moisture content, electrical conductivity, reducing sugars, amount of fructose and glucose, sucrose content, individual sugars, minerals, free acidity, diastase, HMF, invertase and proline (Bogdanov 1999). The International Honey Commission (IHC) has proposed certain constituents as a measure of quality criteria for honey. Honey quality is an aspect generally disregarded by producers and processors especially in developing economies. The quality of honey is important for both local and international markets to ensure competitive prices and human health. Several of these constituents are of great importance to the honey industry as they influence the storage quality, granulation, texture, flavour and the nutritional and medicinal quality of the honey. Honey is generally evaluated by physico-chemical analysis of its properties. The colour, flavour and aroma are the important quality characteristics of honey from consumer’s point of view. However, honey may crystallize after a period of time and this sometimes affect colour and consumer’s acceptability. Its composition and chemical properties make it suitable for long-term storage. Honey is a sweet and viscous liquid which has sweetness due to the presence of monosaccharides such as fructose and glucose. Products such as honey, beeswax, bee pollen, propolis, royal jelly, venom, queen bees and larvae are of socio-economic value (Krell 1996). Beekeeping has been widely promoted in many countries as a major contributor to rural development (Kugonza and Nabakabya 2008). The activity of beekeeping provides a beneficial food and income source for rural households in developing countries.

You may find these groups online, or they may be listed in the newspaper or on community bulletin boards. Look for groups or clubs that gather around an interest or hobby you share. You may need to suggest plans a few times before you can tell if your interest in a new friend is mutual. Take the initiative rather than waiting for invitations to come your way and keep trying. The broader your efforts, the greater your likelihood of success. Don't limit yourself to one strategy for meeting people. ![]() To meet new people who might become your friends, you have to go to places where others are gathered.

They won’t care about what you have to say because you just told them you don’t care about how they feel (even though that is not your intention).Ĭome alongside your children in their highs and lows. If you pull rank by saying, “ I’m not your friend,” you have pulled the plug on connection as well. Nothing happens if nothing is getting through. When you are working through something as a family, the first thing you want to ensure is that you are connected. Life is about relationships, connection, heart and love. Clear leadership in the family is crucial. In a family team, the parent is the coach and the kids are the players. In all of that flexibility, the coach is always the coach and the players know it. The coach sometimes practices with the players to show them new skills, listens when they need a listening ear, pushes them at times, and gives them a break when needed. They all work together and they have very defined roles. If you think about a team, there are coaches and there are players. We need to bridge the communication gap, not make it wider. They have so many distractions and families are so busy. We do not want to accidentally push our kids away. Then you don’t have to worry about losing your power by being their friend they know you hold the final say. When a parent is clear on their role, so is the child. That can be done with some coaching or counseling. If you are struggling with that part, you simply need to clarify and step into the parental role that you hold. To clarify, I’m not talking about being a “peer” friend. What’s a parent if they are not someone we know we can trust? A parent needs to be a friend. If we announce “ I am not your friend,” we are closing a really important door. ![]() They go to their friends when they need someone. Who do you go to when you’re sad or confused? Who do you go to when you want advice or a listening ear? Your friends. Do we really want to teach our children that parents are not their friends? Do we want to voluntarily sign up to be adversaries? I don’t think so. In reality, when you break it down, what is the opposite of friend? It’s adversary or enemy. How would you feel if someone close to you said, “ I’m not your friend“? Would you even hear the words that followed? I wouldn’t. Then they add, “I’m your parent and I love you.” What we are not considering is what those words sound like to the child. “ I’m not your friend.” Many parents proudly say these words to their children today. |
