Alpha pairs, must reaf

I love a book that makes me laugh out loud and keeps me so caught up in the story I can't put it down. This series does that. From page one to the very last page I was enthralled.

even though they connect, it creates a weak spot where the tubes are likely to fall off.

I tried the  Seismic Audio cables and they used pretty good components but the workmanship in the soldering job is poor. About 1 out 6 cables fail. So I returned those and got this set. First thing I did was to inspect the solder job and it was far superior to Seismic Audio. However, these are not the perfect solution to cable needs. The reason is the materials used, specifically the TRS connectors. Where as most connectors use doughnut ring insulating spacers made of smooth plastic on the shaft to separate the tip, ring and sleeve. These use some sort of phenolic material. That would be fine except for the fact they are really rough and a poor fit. In some cases the jacks you plug into will make good contact and secure a snug fit. In other cases the connector can be lose in the jack. One review I read here said the shaft components of the connector were out of round and caused connection problems, dropouts and noise. The assumption made by that reviewer may or may not be correct and the issue may be due to what I described. Either way I may keep these but will be holding my breath that the connections are sound.

One good thing about these cables (unlike the other brand) is they have a plastic insulating sleeve surrounding the wires. It not only insulates the solder joints but also provides a bit of strain relief for the cables. I would like to see more strain relief as it would prolong the longevity of the cables, but I guess some is better than nothing.

Still in search of a good quality cable for a reasonable price.

I had an excellent pair of Serengeti drivers that dated back to the stone age or so, and I loved them... and then I lost them. So back in May, I said, "Well, Amazon's got 'em with prime shipping. I'll buy another pair."

In October, five months later, I found that the screw that holds the temple piece on had disappeared. Dangit! That's a hundred dollar pair of shades! But I was about to head out to travel, so I ordered another set. I figured I could fix the set I had as spares.

Kinda wish I'd've gotten around to fixing that other set, because it's now February (four months later), and the new pair dropped a screw.

I don't know what they've changed, but they don't appear to be anywhere near as durable as they used to be. I can't budget a hundred bucks every few months for sunglasses. I'll take the two pair I have and make one good pair if I can figure out how to get the screw into the spring-loaded temple (it appears to take three hands, all smaller than my own), but the next pair won't be another one of these.

The color coding matched the originals. Replace one at a time to ensure you don't wire incorrectly back to the distributor. Doesn't come with the clips that hold them in place so make sure you keep the originals for reuse.

Please note that this review is for the Volume 1 and not the complete series version which collects 0.1 and issues 1-8. It seems that reviews for each version are being fit under both books, confusing possible buyers. FYI.

A new Alpha Flight series that is pretty reminiscent of the original John Byrne series. This entry finds Canadas own northern heroes battling Attuma during his Fear Itself possessed rampage but this is merely a set-up to dive into the idea of how tremendous threats can provoke governments to co-opt or negate populace freedoms. There is a newly elected (alt-conservative by the writing of it; when will we have writers that will have the guts to paint liberal governments as Machiavellian and outright dangerous too?) government in place and they seize upon the catastrophe to implement and emergency procedures act and essentially enact martial law. But as we begin to see by the end of this short collection (collecting Alpha Flight #0.1 and issues 1-4) this new regime had evil plans in place all along, and the removal of Alpha Flight was high on their priorities list to subjugate the nation. One of Alphas own turns on the team, and that felt like a big stretch. I loved the original Byrne Flight and am willing to give this new Pak Flight a chance but its wearing out its welcome quick.

Many of the answers are wrong as far as looking to see which alpha is correct.  It will have the wrong alpha with the right answer.  Very confusing.

Before I was married I practiced the Alpha male creed. I see nothing wrong with betas and omega. Life has ubiquitous hierarchies. Everyone has his place. Betas can build civilizations, but an only Alpha society would never work. Accept who you are and enjoy life.

This is a great book. But the author need rewrite at least one part and correct one error.(As far as I know). If you are lucky to see my note, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR--make corrections below.
1) page 85 Table4-4  change  the 11th line from bottom into:
  tr  '[A-Z]'  '[N-ZA-M]'
2)read page  240-245 carefully, misleading there.  Here the author talking about  "Exported Variables".  The author's concept is wrong in this  topic.  Actually, when you test codes from page 243 and 244, it makes no  difference for two "vartest4".  I'd like you correct the 4th  line from bottom at page 243 into " y = 5 " instead of " y =  10 "
 Any way, this is a very good book for beginner.  If you can  find error, you get progress.  Good Luck!

Excellent sound and great ear fit, but the novel and cool zipper which prevents tangling can be extremely noisy if the two strands cross over and rub together.  I was all ready to rate at only 3 stars, before I figured out that it was partly "operator error" - simply make sure that the strands do not cross over one another.  The fifth star is only absent due to the straight connector jack.  I prefer the 90 degree connectors, which are less likely to snap off on planes when crossing legs.

I am using the glasses with tridef and various games in half-color and full-color mode.

The framed glasses are comfortable and light, but with wicked ghosting (on the cyan lens only).
The clip-ons work nicely but are extra dark.

The framed glasses are a good design, and attractive, but I really have quite a lot of ghosting. They're just too light. Should be fine for watching black and white horror movies, but not much else. The red is good, but the cyan lets through way too much red, and ghosts like crazy--enough that I have difficulty seeing the scene through the ghosting. Very comfortable and attractive though. Wish they were sunglasses.

The clip-ons are pretty good. The red/cyan are well centered on the colors with almost no ghosting. Or it could be just that they've decided to let almost no light through--there's very little yellow in the scene, and basically the lenses are very dark. I can maybe use them for an hour or so before eye strain is just too much to take any longer--so dark! This is on a 400nit "super bright" screen, too. The low ghosting at the expense of colors means they're quite decent for watching black&white media, but too dark for extended viewing of, well, anything.

I'm torn on the rating. The price is low, but frankly they're just OK and if you can find *anything* better (even at a higher price) I'd recommend that instead, with these as an emergency fallback only.

Went together well, l ran the figure 8 well.  Then when I went to program  the mBlock software would not work. I am waiting for them to repair the software.

I thought I found "THE" protein powder product that I loved. I just read the news about Whole Foods stocks plunging down 20% and I went on to read the news. It talks about Whole foods lying about selling products that have GMO. And there was a link to this news. Unfortunately, RAW FIT is one of them. It has lead, arsenic. I  thought I would let everyone know asap. I just ordered two more of these boxes and they are in transit. Unfortunately they are going back. I just cannot believe this. Here are the links,

Alpha Industries is cutting corners to save on production costs.  Stop being profit greedy, Alpha.  It's going to hurt you in sales.  Just purchased an earlier used Alpha MA-1 with all brass zipper front and side pocket.  NOW Alpha has switched from all brass zippers to silver aluminum zippers with, and I've never seen this before, plastic zipper pulls and plastic zipper bottoms where you hook the zipper to begin the pull.  Why is Alpha doing this when their competitors are still using all brass zippers?  Just order a FOX MA-1 from amazon with gold all brass zippers and they claim a leather piece attached to their zipper pull.  Also, Rothco is showing gold brass zippers on their MA-1 jackets.  Jackets are more than just warmth.  It's about that show quality you display to others and knowing the product will last when quality parts are sewn in.  This review is not meant to be overly critical but a wake-up call to Alpha before their products tank downward in sales and it's too late to undo the damage.  Alpha, we buy these things to last.  Anxiously awaiting for my FOX MA-1 to arrive.

I did discover one thing you need to know. You will have to verify everyone of these as I found the + and - were switched if yo use the shrink tube
placement as your guide. Workaround I marked the + on each one.. Problem solved.

It is difficult to see the 2nd and alpha characters printed in yellow and light green against the transparent background of the clear case.  Also be careful of unscrupulous sellers who strip all the accessories for retail and sell just the calculator.  Read the fine print!

For normal applications, like connecting a DVD player to a TV, I'm sure these cables would work great.  The seem very well made.  I bought these for trying to connect a CCTV camera for use in monitoring electronic equipment under test during radiated immunity testing.  During radiated immunity testing, an RF field is radiated at the electronic equipment under test, while the equipment under test is monitored for proper operation and to test if it is immune to the RF test field.  I need a camera system that is also immune to the test field.  I bought these cables because they are shielded.  In most basic uses, you don't even need shielded cables for audio/video.  The problem I discovered is that the shields are not connected to anything.  I'll hold on to these for general use, but for my special need, they are useless.  I have been reading and found that many RCA cables today are made without out the shields connected to anything.  I'm sorry to report, but if the shield is not connected to anything, current cannot flow, so it cannot couple any interference signals to ground.  It is a sad world when the industry standard practice evolves the point where the majority of consumers are made to believe they need something, but that something is not even designed properly, so fails to work in the rare case it is needed.  I have seen this happening more and more with various technologies.
