Kim Schniederjans lead at Ping Invitational

STILLWATER, Okla. – Kyung Kim of Chandler, Ariz., blistered Karsten Creek with a 5-under-par 67 Saturday to claim a three-shot lead in the Girls Division at The Ping Invitational. Oliver Schniederjans of Powder Springs, Ga., carded a 4-under-par 68 to claim the boys’ first-round lead.

Conducted by the American Junior Golf Association, The Ping Invitational is a 54-hole stroke play event being held at Karsten Creek in Stillwater, Okla. The 72-player field features players from 19 states, Canada, the Philippines and Thailand. The Boys Division is playing Karsten Creek at 7,379 yards, while the Girls Division is playing at 6,306 yards.

Beginning her round at Karsten Creek’s 10th hole, Kim was a birdie machine. She reeled off six birdies against one bogey on her front nine to make the turn at 5-under-par 31 and on pace to beat the women’s course record of 4-under-par. With two birdies and two bogeys on her back nine, she ended the day at 5-under-par, one better than the course-record 68 set by Esther Choe at The Ping Invitational in 2006.

“On the front nine, I stuck almost everything to within three feet for easy birdies,” Kim said. “I almost made a hole-in-one on the par-3 15th hole.”

It was a remarkable turnaround for Kim after she struggled at The Ping Invitational in 2008.

“I played here two years ago, but because I played so bad I didn’t want to come back,” said Kim, who skipped last year’s tournament. “I am kind of surprised. I didn’t think I was going to shoot this low.”

After mustering the courage to return, Kim now owns the women’s course record and a three-stroke lead. The Jutanugarn sisters, from Bangkok, Thailand, hold the second and third positions, with Moriya at 2-under-par 70 and Ariya at 71. Lindsey Weaver of Scottsdale, Ariz., carded an even-par 72 to stand in fourth place heading into Sunday’s second round.

In the Boys Division, Oliver Schniederjans is building upon his success from last year’s event, where he finished runner-up to Emiliano Grillo. Schniederjans churned out five birdies on the front for a 5-under-par 31. Despite a 1-over-par back side, he emerged with a one-stroke lead over Jordan Spieth of Dallas, Texas.

“What makes this course so hard is how fast the greens are downhill, so you really have to stay below the hole,” Schniederjans said. “The front nine I made some unbelievable putts. On the first hole, I missed a four-footer for birdie, but after that, I made some key putts.”

Schniederjans was at his best on holes 5-7, where he drained three consecutive birdie putts from 15 to 25 feet.

“It was probably one of the best nines I’ve ever played,” he said. “I hit the ball great and putted great. I normally do better on harder golf courses because I’ve been good around the greens and saving pars and par putting. I think that’s what helped me out here.”

Spieth trails by one shot at 3-under-par 69, while Yi Keun Chang of Diamond Bar, Calif., is third at 2-under-par 70. Shun Yat Hak of Lake Mary, Fla., stands alone in fourth, while five players are tied for fifth, including the defending champion Grillo.

Glider Glides to Victory in Maryland

2005 Constellation Energy ClassicHUNT VALLEY, Md. --Bob Gilder won his first Champions Tour event in more than two years, shooting a 5-under-par 67 Sunday to capture the Constellation Energy Classic by four strokes over Morris Hatalsky.
Gilder never trailed after opening with a 64 on Friday. He chipped in from 40 feet for par on the final hole to finish at 18-under 198, tying the tournament record set by Christy O'Connor in 1999.
Gilder earned $255,000, more than half the sum he made over his first 22 tournaments this year. Before this weekend, he finished in the top 10 only twice in 2005. It was his eighth career victory on the Champions Tour, the first since the 2003 Emerald Coast Classic.
Gilder started the day with a two-shot lead, but an uneven start dropped him into a temporary tie atop the leaderboard after four holes. He played bogey-free golf the rest of the way, and when the leader birdied No. 11 to move four shots up, the only suspense was who would finish second.
Hatalsky shot a 69. His birdie on the 18th hole enabled him to break a tie with Curtis Strange and earn $149,600 for second place.
Strange shot a 69 for a 203 total to take third, his best finish since joining the tour this year. D.A. Weibring (71) came in fourth, one shot ahead of Tom Watson (71) and John Bland (68).
Gilder started the afternoon with a flourish. After sinking a 10-foot putt for a birdie on No. 1, he put his drive on No. 2 to the left of the cart path, but recovered for another birdie to take a four-shot lead at 15 under.
Gilder inexplicably put his tee shot in the pond on No. 3, even though the pin was far back on the par-3 hole. The double-bogey shaved his lead to one stroke over Weibring and Hatalsky, both of whom registered birdies.
Hatalsky pulled into a tie with birdie on No. 4, but Gilder sank a 4-foot birdie put on No. 5 to take the lead for good. The lead became two strokes when Hatalsky took a bogey on No. 6, and Gilder birdied the ninth hole to take a three-shot lead at the turn.

How TVs will get much, much flatter

A paper-thin HDTV that covers a whole wall? Believe it. OLEDs are coming -- not quickly, but when they do, LCD and plasma are doomed.

Plasma is dead. Front and rear projection? Fuggeddaboutit. LCD has a few good years left, and then it's sayonara, baby. TV technology's future lies in tiny phosphorescent molecules.

Organic light-emitting diodes — OLEDs — employ a thin layer of organic material that emits light when electricity passes through it. OLED displays need no backlight, so they're ultrathin and flexible. They are also brighter, cheaper to manufacture, and more environmentally friendly than plasma displays or LCDs. Over the next few years, OLED will be coming to a boob tube near you, and later maybe to the walls of your house, or even the windshield of your car.

Thin and Rich

When Sony showed off its 27-inch active-matrix OLED flat panel at last January's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, you could hear jaws dropping. A contrast ratio of a million to one, with pure blacks, blinding whites, and brilliant colors; no problems with viewing angles or ambient light; faster response times than LCDs; and low energy consumption — all on a pane of glass thinner than a Bic pen.

"OLEDs...reproduce the exact colors a movie maker intended," says Barry Young, OLED expert for DisplaySearch. "LCDs [and plasmas] can't produce 100 percent of the grayscales in the original image...; OLEDs can."

Right now, only one model is available: Sony's XEL-1, which measures 11 inches diagonally, costs $2500, and has a short useful-life span.

But the XEL-1 is mostly a proof-of-concept item, says Young. OLEDs using newer materials are proving more robust, and eventually they'll long outlast plasma and LCD sets, he adds.

This year, the flat-panel industry woke up and smelled the diodes. Samsung SDI — the world's largest maker of OLEDs for cell phones and portable media players — is pumping half a billion dollars into new manufacturing plants. Epson, LG, Toshiba, and other major manufacturers of OLEDs are following suit.

Janice Mahone, vice president of technology commercialization for Universal Display, says that consumers should start to see OLED panels in the 20-to-30-inch range in 2009. But it's likely to be two years or more before OLEDs can compete with LCDs on price.

A Flat Future

OLED isn't the only promising new TV technology. Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) — LED-powered displays that employ millions of microscopic shutters to control light passing through them — use less power than OLEDs, but they trail OLEDs in development.

Mahone admits that LCDs have lots of life left, and manufacturers — who are loath to cannibalize their LCD sales — will likely try to keep OLED prices high for several years. In the long run, though, OLED sets will become cheaper to produce, thanks to having less electronics.

"You could have a paper-thin, wall-size OLED that displays video, shows photographs, or provides ambient light with a flick of a switch," says Mahone. Transparent OLED technology could provide the same instant control for the windows in your room or for a heads-up display on the windshield of your car.

If you're planning on buying a big-screen TV set this year, it won't be an OLED. But your next TV after that one very well could be — if it isn't built into the walls of your next house.

2013 Ford Fusion Titanium AWD

4 1

Our top pick for its excellent infotainment system, the 2013 Ford Fusion captivated us with its teched-out, tuned-in interior. This vehicle earned top honors for ease of use, thanks to the updated, super user-friendly, intuitive Ford Sync infotainment system. The voice accuracy proved superior to that of most cars we tested, and phone setup was a breeze. The primary display is attractively laid out with numerous options for display color and customized gauge information so you can stay informed on exactly the information you want, like acceleration, fuel economy, or lane alerts. The sedan's interior also scored tops for comfort and roominess, and had the second largest trunk volume of all sedans tested. If the space and convenience of the interior aren't enough, the Fusion offers other optional bells and whistles including voice-activated climate control, Active Park Assist, and Adaptive Cruise Control with Collision Warning.

Fuel Economy (city/highway/combined): 22/31/25
Base Price: $22,495

Postgame Quotes

Recap |  Final Stats

Postgame Quotes

No. 23/24 Indiana (22-7, 9-7 Big Ten) 69, Minnesota (17-12, 5-11 Big Ten) 50
Williams Arena - Minneapolis, Minn.
February 26, 2012

Minnesota Head Coach Tubby Smith

General thoughts:
“It was a pretty ugly display. We started out like we were ready to play, making some shots early, but then we started missing some easy shots. That’s very discouraging for our guys. And then it’s hard to get any type of rhythm or get into defensive sets when you’re always in retreat mode by missing shots in combination with turning the ball over nine times in the first half. This is the result of it.”

On if Julian Welch's injury was a big factor:
“It could have been, but I don’t think so. We’ve played well in most games. This is one that just kind of came out of nowhere. A lot of it has to do with the discouraging part where you’re running stuff to get into a place where you think you can score or get a foul, and then we don’t finish around the rim. But Julian’s played well. He’s the guy who’s been shooting the ball well and we kind of missed that in the second half.”

Minnesota Guard Austin Hollins

On how to explain the difference in play from the first matchup:
“I don’t know. They just came ready to play. They knew they wanted to come in here and win. We beat them at their home, and they knew they wanted to come in here and get revenge on us.”

On if the team came ready to play:
“We came ready to play but we had some breakdowns. We were missing easy shots around the basket, making turnovers, forced and unforced, that we shouldn’t have had. I think their intensity was a lot higher than ours.”

Minnesota Guard Chip Armelin

On the mood in the locker room post-game:
“We were pretty much just sad because didn’t have the intensity that we wanted, we didn’t come ready to play, and we didn’t pass the ball like we needed to. That’s what’s going to happen when you don’t come ready to play--you get beat.”

On how these consecutive losses have affected the team’s confidence:
“It’s affected it a lot. We’ve started messing up and stuff like that and blaming each other for our mistakes. We just need to pull it together and keep each other’s spirits up and everything’s going to be alright.”

Indiana Head Coach Tom Crean

Opening statement:
“Obviously this is a great win because we know how good Minnesota is. They are a fierce competitor with tremendous athletes and toughness. Our guys were very locked in and focused on the game. We knew we had to rebound the ball and get to the foul line. I am proud that our defense was very good. Verdell Jones III played an excellent game. Christian Watford’s defense and energy on Andre Hollins really helped. He has worked extremely hard to continue to improve on his shooting and his scoring. Victor Oladipo has a nice stat sheet, but more importantly he had a great game.”
On the team's response on the road after the 6-0 Gopher start:
“One of my notes to myself is, “Do not let them get on a run.” We were so ready to play. We were not making mistakes. They made some shots (when it was 6-0). I thought our team really settled in and played really well.”

On Christian Watford’s defense on the point guard position:
“We are really comfortable with that. We have been doing that throughout the year. We have three guys right now that can cover one through five. Christian did that and we were able to have Cody Zeller guard Ralph Sampson III today. Our switching was good. I told my team before the game that our defense was based on our communication, and I thought our communication was very good. Christian sets the momentum for that.”

Preview: Gophers vs. Penn State

Minnesota returns home for its final homestand of the year and final game in the month of February.

Herd rebuilding tips to be offered at State of Beef Conference

As Nebraska rangeland recovers from several years of severe drought, many ranchers are interested in rebuilding cow herds that were downsized as pastures dried up.

Herds can be rebuilt either with purchased replacement cows or with heifers raised from a ranch’s herd. But for many Nebraska ranchers, it’s difficult to manage a breeding program that produces replacement females in addition to males destined to eventually go to market, according to a University of Nebraska expert.

UNL Extension beef geneticist Matt Spangler says ranchers who are in a rebuilding mode would do well to think about what their breeding program can do best, and focus on that area.

Spangler will be one of the expert speakers at the first annual Nebraska Sate of Beef Conference Nov. 4-5 at North Platte. Fittingly, the conference theme is “Rebuilding the Cow Herd.”

Spangler will discuss the differences between using a terminal breeding program and a maternal breeding program for a given herd.

He explained the difference between the two:

A terminal breeding program is oriented to the production of terminal animals (destined for the market).

A maternal breeding program is the opposite; these animals are destined to be replacement females that go back into the herd. It’s a challenge to accomplish both types of breeding programs simultaneously on the same operation, according to Spangler, because of the large number of animals required and the fact that each requires emphasis on different suites of traits.

“Medium and small size producers need to think about what makes the most sense for their operation,” he said. “Commonly, they try to ride the fence, and produce both market and replacement animals. Unfortunately, this can create inefficiencies.”

Spangler said a producer planning to rebuild a herd should consider several fundamental questions. One question: Do they really have the resources to develop replacement females, and can they do it as cheaply as someone else whom they might purchase them from?

Spangler acknowledged that buying replacement heifers is expensive, but added, “I would encourage producers to honestly evaluate what it truly costs to development a suitable replacement.”

One benefit of buying replacement animals and breeding a terminal herd is that the rancher can focus bull selection on traits to fit only one breeding objective, such as growth rate and carcass quality.

“That makes bull selection easier because you’re selecting on a smaller number of traits, and allows you to make improvements more quickly in your herd since your selection criteria are more focused,” Spangler said.

The flip side is also true. Producers who focus on producing replacement females are focused on a narrower range of traits, and can make progress more quickly in that narrow range of traits.

For a rancher, the decision process on a breeding program is similar to that of a diversified farming and ranching enterprise that is considering specializing to excel in one area.

“Except here we’re talking about an enterprise that has beef cattle, but deciding to truly excel in one component of beef cattle production instead of trying to do both,” Spangler said.

At the State of Beef conference, Spangler’s presentation will focus on what kind of factors enter into making these decisions, and once the decision is made, what resources are important to excel. Some of those areas include breed selection, cross-breeding programs, which traits to focus on, so a rancher can try to maximize profitability.

Organizers hope the State of Beef Conference will be the first in a series of conferences to be held every other year in Nebraska. It would fall on alternating years with a regional beef conference, the Range Beef Cow Symposium, which rotates locations among Nebraska, South Dakota, Wyoming and Colorado.

The State of Beef conference will focus on making good use of the resources that have moved Nebraska to the forefront of the nation’s cattle industry, as well as technology that shows promise for the future. It is being organized by University of Nebraska-Lincoln Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources.

Information and updates about the State of Beef Conference are available on-line at A link at the site will put potential vendors and sponsor in touch with the information they need. A registration form can be downloaded from the website, filled out, and mailed with registration fee.

Some of the other topics on the agenda:

Using technology in the beef herd to get “more bang for the buck.”

Knowing an operation’s unit cost of production.

The beef market outlook—why rebuild?

A panel discussion of producers who have done unique things or used their resources in a less traditional way, allowing them to expand their cow herd or bring somebody back to the ranch to work.

The role of beef production, as well as crops, in helping rebuild rural Nebraska.

iPhone 5 Lightning Accessories Should Arrive By Holidays

At the moment Apple is the only company that can make and sell Lightning cables and accessories, but it should soon let other companies make accessories with the new connector.

According to iLounge Apple tightened the restrictions on its Made for iPhone/iPad/iPod (MFi) policies which prevent third parties from making Lightning-compatible accessories. Apple needs to approve factories that want to make Lightning accessories, and so far it hasn’t approved any third-party facilities.

Next month, however, Apple will hold a “seminar” where it will discuss MFi rules and policy changes. The seminar will take place in China after which Apple will allow more factories to make Lightning accessories.

iphone-5-review- 9

The timing means we likely won’t see shelves of Lightning accessories for the iPhone 5 this holiday, but we should see a few. We expect to see third-party cables, docks, and speakers first as those are likely easier to adapt to the new connector. That’s assuming Apple will allow those accessories, which we hope it will. Many users are already looking forward to longer Lightning cables.

We don’t know what this means for iPhone 5 battery cases which are always popular iPhone accessories. We recently heard that at least one company doesn’t expect to have iPhone 5 charging accessories until January, which will just miss the holiday season. January is still a few months away, but users can opt to use an external battery until the battery cases come along.

Read: Best iPhone 5 Accessories

It wouldn’t surprise us if we saw a plethora of new products announced shortly after this rumored seminar in China. We’re sure big accessory makers are just waiting for the day when they can announce Lightning accessories, even if we have to wait weeks for them to come out.

Sotomayor's Memoir Already A Best-Seller

Updated: 4 years ago.

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor's memoir is riding high, topping the New York Times best-seller list in its first week of sales.

"My Beloved World," Sotomayor's account of her path from the tenements of the Bronx to the U.S. Supreme Court, is on track to outdistance even the best-selling books of other justices.

In its first week, 38,000 hardback volumes were sold, according to Nielsen BookScan, which tracks 85 percent of the U.S. print book market, excluding e-books. According to Nielsen, Sotomayor's memoir sold 9,000 more books in the first week than Justice Clarence Thomas' 2007 memoir sold. Thomas' memoir, My Grandfather's Son, also premiered at No. 1 on the best-seller list and ultimately sold 187,000 hardcover volumes.

With such a strong start, Sotomayor's book sales may even surpass those of former Justice Sandra Day O'Connor's memoir, Lazy B. O'Connor's hardcover book sales over the past 10 years have totaled 53,000, but the book has sold an additional 36,000 in paperback, more than twice the number of Thomas' paperback sales. Sotomayor's memoir will come out in paperback in September.

Justice John Paul Stevens' memoir, Five Chiefs, published in 2011, is far less personally revealing than the other three justices' memoirs, since it focuses in large part on his years as a lawyer, lower court judge and without kissing and telling his work as a Supreme Court justice. It sold 16,000 hardback books and 2,000 paperback.

Other modern-day Supreme Court justices have written books too, but they are even less personal. Instead they are based on history or legal argument. Still, all have done relatively well.

Justice Stephen Breyer's most recent book, Making Our Democracy Work: A Judge's View, sold 29,000 hardback books and 7,000 paperback. Justice Antonin Scalia's book Making your Case, written with Bryan Garner, sold 59,000 volumes. And Scalia's 2012 book, Reading Law: the Interpretation of Legal Texts, also written with Garner, sold 11,000 books.

Hinderer Knives XM-18 3.5" Orange Bowie Flipper

Manufacturer: Hinderer Knives

Model: HK-XM18-35-015

In stock(Usually Ships in 24-48 Hours)

Free Shipping

The Hinderer Knives XM-18 3.5" Gen IV Bowie Blade with Orange 3D textured G10 is a precision-crafted hard-use tactical folder. It features a true bowie style blade with integral flipper for easy opening when it matters most. As the medium sized model in the Hinderer family, the XM-18 3.5 was designed to fit most hands comfortably and has a reasonable blade size to handle most any task. Ease of opening and closing one-handed combined with a reliable lock system were targets that have been achieved with the XM-18. Brand new directly from the Hinderer Ranch.

The Blade:  The three and a half inch blade is stonewashed and can be opened via the integral flipper or dual thumb studs/blade stops. Rick's own 17-4PH state-of-the-art pivot system creates silky smooth operation; however, a bit of wrist action may be needed for flipping as Hinderers often have a light detent.

The Handle:  Full titanium frame lock, liner, hardware and standoffs create one tough package while 3D texturing on the G-10 scale coupled with jimping all around create a solid grip. There is a bit of a choil to choke up on the blade for more detailed cutting tasks as well. This Hinderer XM-18 includes the famous Hinderer Lockbar Stabilizer and two-position titanium clip for tip up or down right hand carry.

As with all Hinderer Knives, the XM-18 is completely customizable from clip and screws to the lockbar stabilizer and pivot.

Waiting for Lefty

Waiting for Lefty Summary and Analysis of V. Interne Episode

An elderly man in a white coat, Dr. Barnes, angrily talks into a phone and says that since he was outvoted and that "you did this to Dr. Benjamin yourselfyou can tell him yourself." He hangs up, takes a drink, and Dr. Benjamin joins him. Benjamin is upset that he has been replaced for surgery on a woman in critical condition by an incompetent doctor named Leeds, the nephew of a senator. He says he especially minds being replaced because of "class distinction," because the woman is "poor." Barnes warns him against using "radical" language like that, as it may some day cost him his life. Barnes also tells him that the hospital is closing up Ward C, the charity ward, since it is rapidly losing money. Furthermore, they are firing some staff members, including Benjamin. Though Benjamin has seniority, as Barnes hints, and Benjamin states, he is losing his job because he is Jewish.

Barnes explains that doctors "don't run medicine in this country," and that very few people who know their jobs truly control their jobs. He believes that the country has always been run by the rich since the Revolutionary War. Barnes takes a phone call and learns that the woman operated on has died. Benjamin throws down his operation gloves, and Barnes praises his idealism. Benjamin says he wasn't fully convinced of the ideas of radicals until now. He brings up the idea of working in Russia in their "socialized medicine," but then decides he has to work on America, and possibly get a job such as driving a taxi to allow him to keep studying. He vows to fight, though it may mean death.

A man named Agate talks to the taxi drivers and tells them they are "ladies." He says he is proud of his glass eye, a symbol of his working-class origins. He insults Fatt and gains the audience's approval. He says his union button "blushed itself to death" that morning. Fatt and the gunman try to detain him, tearing his shirt, but he gets away with the help of the committee men. Agate proclaims that if "we're reds because we wanna strike, then we take over their salute too!" He salutes with an uppercut punch, Communist-style. While the committee men join in or take over part of his speech, Agate incites the taxi drivers with fiery rhetoric about the rich killing them off. He tells them to "unite and fight!" He says the "reds" have helped him in the past. He tells them not to wait for Lefty, who may never arrive. A man runs into the house and says they just found Lefty, shot and dead. Agate yells to his fellow "WORKERS OF THE WORLD," and urges them to die to "make a new world." He leads them in a chorus to "STRIKE!"

In the first part of this scene, we see further evidence of the government's destructive meddling in private affairs: government nepotism has allowed an incompetent doctor to replace a good one. However, not all government involvement is bad, in Odets's view. As Benjamin admits, he would like to work within Russia's "socialized medicine." (Remember, also, that Benjamin is one of the elected committee members in the taxi drivers' union.)

The debate over the activity of the government has long been a contentious one in America, and Franklin Roosevelt was the first President in the 20th century to insist upon the necessity for the widespread power of the federal government. To Odets, government intervention is effective only when it limits the extent of "harmful" power (as when it allows unions to balance out the power of industry), not when it imposes regulations on "good" power (such as replacing a good doctor with an incompetent one, or not supplying enough funds for the hospital's charity ward). Government intervention walks a fine line, Odets suggests, between aiding and stifling independent practices.

The answer for Odets, then, is again unions, in letting the workers wield the power. Agate, the "agitator," reminds the taxi drivers that they are basically dying anyway, and that death might as well come with freedom. He stirs them into a Communist frenzy, lifting a line directly from the end of Marx and Engels's "The Communist Manifesto": "WORKERS OF THE WORLD" (the original line tells them to "unite.") Lest Odets scare off his audience, who may, like Barnes, be wary of language that is "Too radical," he first introduces the idea of Communism humorously. Agate performs the Communist salute, then quickly makes a joke, and the audience laughs. But he turns just as quickly to more serious issues, and brings up historical evidence of the goodness of the "reds."

If that is not enough, Agate warns the audience not to wait for Lefty, for their left-wing savior to deliver them from bondage. He wants them to act with each other, through the group. When they discover Lefty has been murdered, rather than deflate them, the news rallies the men. They are ready to adopt Communism (or at least Communist principles of equal power); they are ready to cooperate with each other; they are ready to sacrifice themselves for their fellow man; they are ready to die for their cause; and they are finally ready to strike, a position their chants in unison make abundantly clear.

Pompous circumstance

Q: Is there any difference between “pomposity” and “pompousness”? Different origins, shades of meaning, antiquity, geographical uses? Is one more pompous than the other?

A: We don’t see much, if any, difference in meaning between these two words, though “pomposity” seems to be a lot more popular than “pompousness.”

Here’s the Google scorecard: “pomposity,” 392,000 hits, versus “pompousness,” 79,600.

In fact, Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary (11th ed.) has a separate entry for “pomposity,” but lists “pompousness” only within its entry for “pompous.”

Merriam-Webster’s defines “pomposity” as  “pompous demeanor, speech, or behavior” as well as “a pompous gesture, habit, or act.”

M-W doesn’t include a definition of “pompousness,” but the Oxford English Dictionary defines it as “the quality or condition of being pompous; pomposity.”

If you can detect a significant difference between these two words, you have a better nose than we do.

As for antiquity, both “pomposity” and “pompousness” entered English in the 15th century.

We adapted “pomposity” from the post-classical Latin pompositas (meaning pomp or bombast).

We got “pompousness” by tacking the suffix “-ness” onto “pompous,” which comes from the post-classical Latin pomposus (magnificent, grand, pompous).

Both “pomposity” and “pompousness” ultimately come from pompa, the classical Latin word for a ceremonial or solemn procession (and, yes, the source of “pomp”).

As far as geography goes, we suspect that you’ll find both “pomposity” and “pompousness” wherever stuffed shirts hang out. From our experience, that means everywhere.

'The Wright Stuff'—GCHS' Zach Wright is quickly making a name for himself on the links

-A A +A
By Paul Gable

Despite the fact Grant County High School boys' golfer Zach Wright is entering his sophomore season on the links, he has already made a name for himself.

As a freshman, Wright was a member of the Braves state-qualifying team, shooting a round of 80 in their lone day in the state tournament; however, it is his work and play during the summer that has garnered attention.

Last month, Wright won the Northern Kentucky Junior Amateur championship for golfers ages 13-14. Wright, who fired rounds of 76 and 74, defeated Phoenix Ramsey in a playoff to claim the championship.

The Big Wu Heats up Boulder

It just wouldn't be a December night in Boulder, Colorado without a cold snap and the accompanying snowfall.  However, that didn't seem to deter over two hundred fans from packing the legendary Fox Theater last Friday night to see Minnesota-based jamband, The Big Wu.

Colorado has quickly become the band's home away from home as they have established quite a fan base there.  This was the second time this year The Big Wu have played a mini-tour through the Rocky Mountain state, marching through cities such as Denver, Breckenridge, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, and of course Boulder.

Fresh off their first tour through Japan, the band was ready to give the Colorado faithful a steamy helping of their signature Americana folk and rock 'n' roll.  Thankfully, they did not disappoint.  I say this because any true Big Wu fan will tell you that ever since guitarist and founding member Jason Fladager left the group in 2001, the band has been plagued with inconsistent performances and a declining popularity.  Many acts would not be able to survive this, but as of late The Big Wu have gathered new strength and are once again playing with energy and vigor.

The evening began with local boys Mumbouli warming up the crowd.  A ripping bluegrass cover of Duran Duran's "Hungry Like the Wolf" certainly moved the audience into full-on dance mode.  The final two songs of their set were joined by Wu members Chris Castino (guitar) and Al Oikari (keys), which helped provide a bolder sound to this quartet (Mumbouli also had a local keyboardist and Outformation percussionsist Jeff Lane perform with them during this set).

Only minutes later The Big Wu took the stage to begin their musical conquest of the evening.  The opening song, "Make Believers", came out a little flat and was very bass-heavy.  But to their credit, the band seemed like they were just trying to shake off the yawns from the previous night's late Denver show.

They followed with the rock 'n' reggae gem, "Ray Charles Can See", a popular tune from their 2004 studio project Tool For Evening.  This was a slower, dirtier version of the song which carried an amazing jam, proving that the first song of the night was indeed just a warm up.  The only shortcoming here was that Castino (once again) botched the lyrics at one point.  As much talent as he possesses, lyrical retention is not his strong point.  You would think after 12 years on the road he would finally use sheet notes or a digital companion to aid this problem.

The band continued on to play the popular Grateful Dead version of "Good Lovin", which featured drummer Terry VanDeWalker on vocals.  A tight beat and a huge smile from Terry inspired much of the audience to shake the walls of the Fox with their feet.  This eventually gave way to a newer VanDeWalker original entitled "A Wall", which is a slower, ballad-like rock song that failed to capture much attention from fans and even the band.

The band quickly shifted gears and went right into the fan favorite, "Shoot the Moon".  Easily the best played song of the set it featured amazing solos by Oikari and Castino.  The band jammed on this tune for over ten minutes and really captured what is the heart of this outfit: improvisational rock.

After a short rant by bassist Andy Miller about being tired and "having a bad hair day", the band played an old concert staple, "Red Sneakers".  Miller must not have been as tired as he led on, because his bass playing was superb.  His fingers were all over the strings, and the liquidity of his sound really resonated throughout this number.

The seventh song of this set was the "Ballad of Dan Toe", a south-of-the-border inspired tune that VanDeWalker has kept in their repertoire for many years now.  This song was also played with great energy, and at this point you began to feel the flow of the band was heading in the right direction this evening.

Following that was one of the few Andy Miller-written tunes, "Dancing with Lula".  Always a concert favorite, the crowd really got into and began to show their strength.  The Fox Theater had pretty much filled up at this point and you could feel it.  The end of "Lula" segued right into "No Place Like a Road", a folk song from the collaborative side project Songs From the Tin Shed by Castino and Yonder Mountain String Band's mandolin phenom, Jeff Austin.  This was a good rendition of the song, however, had Austin (a Boulder resident) been available to join the band on this tune it would have made it magical.

The set ender this evening was quite a surprise, as The Wu gave forth their best effort at covering Led Zeppelin's "Misty Mountain Hop", and did so quite well.  VanDeWalker seemed to summon Robert Plant on vocals, and the rest of the group stepped it up to give the crowd a very high energy, well-received version and left them wanting more.

After a short set break the band took the stage and welcomed Mumbouli guitarist Doug BakerBaker has joined the band on numerous occasions while in Colorado, and has proved to be a good compliment to their sound.  He is also likely Castino's brother from another mother as the two red-bearded guitarists play off each other well.

The set began with a cover of the Grateful Dead's rock anthem "Terrapin Station".  It was bold and very well done, yet only reiterated the fact The Big Wu needs to replace Jason Fladager's missing rhythm guitar.

Following two cover songs, The Wu dove back into their original catalog and performed the Caribbean-influenced "Shantytown".  At this point the band was also flanked by percussionist Jeff Lane (Outformation), who would end up providing worldly beats the remainder of the show.  This song was immensely popular and was played for well over ten minutes, showing once again the band's musical exploration and knack for the jam.

From there the band welcomed another addition to the show by inviting the keyboardist from Mumbouli's performance to lend a hand on the song "On the Road Again".  At this point there were seven musicians on stage, yielding an amazingly large sound never furnished by The Big Wu alone. This was a fun country-rock song that lent its way to another of its kind, the Johnny Cash popularized version of "Big River". For anyone who enjoys good cover songs, this night was packed with them!

The band then marched on through originals "Flat Iron Suite" and "Save Our Ship", two songs performed with very spacey interludes where I think everybody temporarily left the building without moving a limb.  The impressive musicianship continued through these melodies, and I was again fascinated by the sound Jeff Lane was adding to the collective.

Nearing the end of the show, the band performed the VanDeWalker original "Dog's Dead" and decided it was time to showcase possibly the most talented member of the band, Al Oikari.  Over the years Oikari has become quite a force on the pedal steel guitar and proved it so on this melody.  He also displayed his amazing key work on the renditions of "Texas Fireball", a full-on rockabilly Wu original, and the set ender "Rock 'n' Roll Band".

For the encore this evening The Big Wu decided not to leave any of Boulder's hometown musicians out, and welcomed former Leftover Salmon keyboard player Bill McKay to the stage, along with Baker and Lane. They appropriately ripped into the Salmon favorite "Up on the Hill" and had the Fox Theater gleaming with excitement.

As if that were not enough music for the night, the band completed the show with the signature tune "Break of Day", which is usually reserved as a set opener but saved here for last.  It was a beautiful way to say goodnight to the Boulder fan base.

It was very refreshing to see The Big Wu play with so much energy (and sobriety for that matter) again, and it gave hope that there may be many more years to come for these troubadours of the Midwest.  They are still some of the best songwriters and performers in the scene, and Colorado fans will always welcome them back with open arms and a warm smile.

Great review. JF left the band in 2002, and truth be told, the Wu has been famously inconsistent in both their 5-piece and 4-piece formations. Nabbed this show from cotapers, though, and you are right on. Total scorcher. Must be something in that Boulder water.

Understanding ‘Remi’ / ‘Remy’

When it comes to shopping around for hair extensions, we understand that the different types and terms used by different brands can become very confusing! To make the process a bit easier, we’ve broken down what a few of the key terms used in the industry mean, including remi / remi hair extensions, to help you on your way…

Remy / Remi Hair Extensions

A commonly used term, ‘remy ‘or ‘remi’ as it is sometimes spelt, means the hair is root to tip correct, with the cuticles lying in the same direction. All of our Great Lengths human hair extensions are remy, with only the finest quality hair selected and used. If the hair used was not remy, and the cuticle is left attached, the hair can be tricky to brush and manage, rather than the smooth, natural look you get with the likes of Great Lengths – this is something that cannot be achieved with artificial hair extensions.

Hair Extensions Cuticle

Not to be confused with nail cuticles, hair extension cuticles mean the protective layer of cells around the root / shaft of the strand, attaching the hair to the head. These are stripped from hair when they are used for hair extensions, as part of the remy / remi process to keep extensions smooth.

Ethical Hair Extensions

Hair extensions can be deemed ethical when the hair used has been willingly donated, and is responsibly sourced and paid for. Great Lengths 100% ethical human hair extensions are sourced from Indian temples, and use the finest Indian hair which has been donated through the Hindu ritual of tonsuring. You can find out more about our sourcing process here.

Double drawn hair extensions

Here at Great Lengths, all of our hair extensions are double drawn, meaning that the hair is exactly the same length from root to tip.

When our hair is being processed and dyed, our skilled team ‘hackle’ the hair to remove any shorter or uneven strands from the hair extensions bundle. This is part of the process that ensures our hair is double drawn.

If you have any other questions about Great Lengths and remy / remi hair extensions, visit our FAQ page, or get in touch one of our Salons.

Influence Map Picture

Haha, guess you can say I've been doing a bit of soul searching for my art as of late. I'm not very happy with the direction my art is trying to take me, which is why you guys have probably seen me doing mostly group art and OCT art as of late. I decided that maybe if I went back to what influences my art choices, It can help me figure out where to go from there.

1. Binding of Isaac: Binding of Isaac is a Indie game that you can buy off of Steam. The games plot is Isaacs mother is a devoted Christian whom has heard the voice of God, and God has commanded her to kill Isaac. Isaac escapes into his basement with his life, and has to battle many monsters until he can confront and defeat his mother. While the gaming is very simple, the plot is what I really love. A child who usually seeks comfort in his mother is now trying to escape her. It's something nobody wants to deal with, and it can make you really think about the mentality of some people and how far they'll go to proof their devotion. This game (And hell, the soundtrack makes for some awesome dark art) can inspire you to create things that most people would find outlandish and horrible.

2. Jack: An anthro webcomic created by Dave Hopkins. It follows the life of Jack, and anthro rabbit who is the personification of the Sin of Wrath. He is tasked as the Grim Reaper. While trying to protect the souls in hell from them selves and his fellow sins who wish them harm, he is also trying to figure out how to redeem himself to earn a second chance at life. This webcomic is extremely graphic. It involves themes such has rape and murder. Just like Binding of Isaac, it makes you think of what people are capable of. What I really love about this webcomic is that it goes where few artists dare to go, which is why it has so many readers. And which is why I love it.

3. Clint Mansell: Anything written by Clint Mansell just drips inspiration and ideas. Requiem for a Dream is my favorite piece by him. And my favorite part is that because the pieces have no lyrics, it's easier to think of ideas without being muddled by lyrics. (Of course I love songs with lyrics too, don't get me wrong)

4. Discovery Channel: This was probably the first TV station I watched that wasn't just cartoons. Most of the programs are educational but entertaining, which is what I want my art to be in the end. You know, art with a meaning.

5. Curiosity: This is a program that shows on the Discovery Channel. (I'm actually watching it as I type this) Basically it just broadcasts different questions and tries to answer them. Can people be brainwashed? What was mummification like? Info about Super Volcanoes. All that fun stuff. It's like Discovery. Entertaining but educational.

6. Mythology: Now if this one wasn't obvious with what I draw then I don't know what is. Although I do prefer realistic mythology instead of the fanciful stuff of today (evil mermaids. Faeries that steal children. Succubus and Incubus, etc) It's just interesting to learn about and draw.

7. French Revolution: Of everything that I have ever learned in school, I have to say the French Revolution was by far my favorite thing to learn. The extreme measures used by not only the French people but the French monarchy to cause the other side as much hell as possible is interesting to learn about. We come back to the 'doing things other people find crazy' deal.

8. Religion: Ooooh. The big one. Religion. Especially Christianity. I'm actually an atheist, but I still love to learn about it. Mostly about the mythological aspect such as Adam and Even and Lilith. Mythology. See number 6.

9. WIPs: I like seeing how other people build their drawings, because then I want to try it on my own art. Which then usually has me thinking of things to draw faster so I can actually try the new thing.

10. Scott McCloud: A comic book writer who has written some of the best comic book tutorials I have ever read. Anytime I need an idea for my comic, I crack open one of his books.

11. Pixar: While most of the items on this list have either been brutal or educational, I like Pixar because it's just simple and fun to enjoy. It doesn't need some giant in depth message or dark and edgy themes to keep me interested. It's simple plots and fun characters are what I go to Pixar for.

12. Reading: I read almost as much as I draw. I can read a 700 page book in less then 10 hours because I have read so much my reading time has sped up. Which sucks because I'm always running out of things to read. I don't think I need to explain why reading influences me. It's READING.

13. Skyrim: I came for the fantasy RPG and I stayed for the wide landscape and amazing ideas this game has created. Skyrim is the reason I have started looking at mythology different. Which in turn has effected how I draw it.

14. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: While I think the games dialogue can be a bit cheesy at times and the bosses too easy (I KOed Primal Dialga with a few X-Eye seeds and Water Pulses!) I think that the main characters (excluding yourself...because the MC is boring.) are very interesting to think about. Especially Dusknoir and Grovyle and the parts they play in the story. Plot Twists people, learn them..

15. Horror Video Games: I am actually a BIG wuss. I watch LPs of horror games such as Amnesia, Penumbra, Slender, Dead Space, etc. I think the suspense and constant heart attacks make the blood rush faster to my brain and help me think of ideas, because I seem to watch Horror LPs whenever I need a new idea for art. Maybe I'm just punishing myself for not drawing by scaring my poor weenie heart. :I

16. Eden (OCTS) I didn't know if I wanted to use just Eden for this, or OCTs in general. I guess I can combine them. OCTs have always helped me learn how to draw interactions and scenes that I may not have had the chance to draw before. Eden has been my favorite OCT by far, and has helped me with my comic making ability and story telling abilities so much.

17. Foils: Good and Evil. Life and Death. Love and Hate. I like figuring out how opposites can coexist with each other.

18. Famous Monsters: Dracula, Wolfman, Frankenstein's monster, and etc. Monsters are awesome and fun to draw and learn about. Especially if you go back far enough to learn their origins.

19. Grim Tales: A webcomic created by Bleedman. It takes place mostly in the Grim Adventure of Billy and Mandy universe, but incorporates many other characters in the story such as Oogie Boogie from Nightmare Before Christmas and and Him from Powerpuff Girls. It's interesting to see all these characters whom you have never thought could work together actually work together.

Sooo most of my influences have to do with 'doing what other people won't do.' Because that isn't what EVERY artist tries to do.

T-Mobile Galaxy S5 lands Lollipop to lead this week's Android device update roundup

galaxys5 100261320 primary.idge 1
Credit: Mike Homnick

The T-Mobile variant of the Galaxy S5 is the latest to jump on board the Lollipop train. It’s been refreshing to see Samsung’s flagship score the latest Android build so quickly in comparison to previous versions of Android, especially with a new Galaxy S6 just around the corner.

However, there are other updates to consider. Each week we gather up all the major software updates for the biggest devices; phones and tablets on U.S. carriers (and unlocked phones, of course), wearables, and round them all up so you don’t miss a thing.

Making sure your device installs the latest software is a good housekeeping practice, ensuring you have the latest features, close security holes, and squish those pesky bugs.

Galaxy S5: Be on the lookout for an over-the-air update bringing you Android Lollipop. One report says you’ll see build number G900TUVU1DOB1 show up soon. The download is about 900MB, so be patient when the download starts.

US Cellular

Moto X: The second-generation Moto X is getting Android Lollipop 5.0.2. The Motorola support page has all the details, focusing on the revamped notifications and other Material Design-inspired changes to the newest version of Android.

Shield Tablet: One of the best Android tablet for gamers is getting an update for a smoother gaming experience. It leaves you on Android 5.0.1, but includes improvements to battery life, charging performance, and user interface performance. The update follows a boost to the GRID gaming service, which is bringing more titles like Saint’s Row IV and Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7.

HTC One M8: While Sprint has already signed off on the Lollipop update, HTC now has the full system image available if you want to install it yourself. To do this, you need to install HTC Sync on your computer if it doesn’t recognize your device when plugging it in. Get the HTC One Lollipop download directly from the company site.

LG G3: We had a hint it was coming last week but now it’s official: Lollipop is on its way to you. The Sprint update page is live with all the details about what’s new with your smartphone.

It was history in the making: the Japanese government finally decided last week on a new energy and environment strategy involving a complete phase out of nuclear power across the country by the 2030s.

And then came the fine print.

The government hastily added last weekend that the phase out referred to all plants except for the three currently under construction. The government backpedalled marginally on Wednesday, conceding that the phase out might not actually occur in the 2030s or 40s following strong lobbying from business groups.

So where does that leave the strategy?

Without doubt, the plan has been weakened, but the basic thrust is that the government, the Democratic Party of Japan (DJP), is still committed (link in Japanese) to making Japan a nuclear-free society in the next 30 years.

Although the government is being vague by attempting to please all its critics, the landmark announcement remains mostly intact.

While it was not perfect in the first place and has been weakened further, it still represents a big step forward for a country that was looking to increase its reliance on nuclear power to 50% just 18 months ago.

Some critics have since labelled the DPJ’s zero nukes policy as a ‘climate disaster’, arguing it will destroy Japan’s ability to cut its greenhouse gas emissions because it will rely more heavily on coal, oil and gas to power its high-tech, but resource poor economy.

While it is true that Japan’s emissions have jumped in the short-term, the Japanese people have proven that they are both willing and able to save enough power for Japan to continue with no nuclear plants online, and with no power shortages.

Given that renewable solutions are already being rolled out rapidly, the medium to long-term doom and gloom is unjustified.

If the government sticks to its pledge and does not extend the lives of existing plants, it has at least 18 to 22 years by its vague schedule to make the switch to renewable solutions. Germany’s clean energy revolution has taken less than a quarter of that so far, and it is already generating close to 50% of its energy from clean solutions on good days.

Importantly, Japan’s population is projected to decline by 30 percent between now and 2060. That’s around 800,000 fewer people using electricity each year, averaged out, and by the time the last nuclear plants are switched off there would be fewer than 100 million people compared with 127.8 million people in 2011.

That would mean a lot less electricity would be used, especially after 28 years of energy efficiency measures and renewable deployments.

With such a huge fall off in electricity use and with 90% of the public calling for a nuclear free future, a renewable energy system, such as that outlined in Greenpeace’s Energy [R]evolution, is the best way forward for Japan.

Getting there, however, will require an equally significant revolution in thinking in Japanese economic and political circles. For decades, they have been wedded to the idea that nuclear is Japan’s saviour, but with the true costs of nuclear power becoming clearer everyday, the change to an energy future based on renewables is inevitable.

 The Fonterra Connection | GREENPEACE New Zealand

The Fonterra Connection

Publication - August 22, 2009
Fonterra has introduced supplementary feeds such as imported palm-based animal feed which is changing dairying from pastoral to industrial. Palm-based animal feed imports have increased 2,700 fold since 1999. This is part of an overall trend of intensification of dairying in New Zealand. Agriculture is responsible for 49% of NZ’s domestic greenhouse gas emissions. This increase doesn’t factor in indirect emissions from forest destruction in Indonesia to grow supplementary feed for NZ’s dairy herds.

ANC members tell Kgalema Motlanthe: Remove corrupt councillors

Meeting on new legislation turns into complaint session about local government

Photo of meeting
ANC members directed criticism at the party in a meeting led by former President Kgalema Motlanthe

ANC members in Buffalo City pleaded with former president Kgalema Motlanthe to remove corrupt ward councillors and approach the national office to disband their party’s regional and provincial leadership.

Motlanthe and other ANC leaders were in East London this week to review legislation passed under the government. The meeting took place at the East London Christian Centre. Hundreds of people participated.

The public was invited to talk about their experience of new laws passed since 1994. Discussions were supposed to be focussed on poverty, unemployment, inequality, equitable distribution of wealth, land reform and rural development, social cohesion and nation building.

Instead members raised questions about their ward councillors, accusing them of failing to deliver basic services. They cited corrupt councillors who sell RDP houses but are protected by the party.

Every person in the audience who was given the microphone complained about ward councillors, and how the ANC provincial and regional leadership were protecting them.

Mpumelelo Feni from Tyutyu Village in King William’s Town asked Motlanthe how are they going to build the nation when they are led by corrupt people. “The whole list … is full of corrupt ward councillors. If you are not a thief the ANC will never protect you. We were forced to vote for ward councillors not because they are hard workers but the leadership had plans to benefit them. What about us voters? Instead of enjoying the democracy we are still fighting for solution,” he said.

Nomfuneko Botomani from Gqobhasi in East London said the ANC is using them for business. “Maybe you are also here to push your own agenda. I have been on a waiting list since 1998. I was approved in 2001 then suddenly I was told that my application was withdrawn, something I know nothing about. Ward councillors do not care about us. They only care to feed themselves. We are still victims. Nothing has changed,” she said.

Another community member who identified himself as Phuthumani said that in his ward RDP houses were built but instead of being given to needy people they were given to government officials and politicians. “If you do not have R10,000 to buy a house then you will never receive it in Buffalo City Metro. They only care for themselves and they must be removed,” he said.

Some threatened “hell” if the ANC does not disband the provincial and regional leaders, while others threatened to move to other political parties.

Motlanthe promised to attend to all the issues raised. He asked those who did not have a chance to speak to write their grievances down.

Meanwhile ANC members in Mnquma municipality disrupted a council meeting where the new mayor, speaker and council were elected. Protesting outside Msobomvu Hall in Butterworth, they opposed the election of council speaker Zibuthe Mqwazi and Chief Whip Zakhele Mkiva. Police used teargas to disperse the crowd.

    This is one of the coleslaw recipes my husband will actually eat. The other has a spicy thai dressing with peanuts and toasted coconut. Basically, he doesn't like the coleslaws with the mayo, vinegar and sugar dressings.

Marshall Class 5 Amplifier C5-01 Combo Review

posted by

When Marshall Amplification announced the launch of a small 5w combo a few years ago, it was literally music to my ears.

…this is a surprisingly loud amplifier, so depending on the venue, you may have to use an overdrive pedal…

Marshall Class 5 C5-01 Amplifier

I’ve waited over 7 months to write a review of this amp, as I’m conscious not to fall into the trap of writing a review during the “honeymoon period” of a recently acquired guitar item. Subsequently, I’ve had the opportunity to use the amp through a variety of guitars and effects pedals.

This review is for the Version 2 (2011 version) C5-01 combo, which features:

  • thicker wood for the cabinet
  • volume and 3-Band EQ controls
  • 2 ECC83 pre-amp valves and 1 EL84 power-amp valve
  • specially designed 10″ Celestion G10F-15 speaker
  • 5W power
  • 16 ohm extension speaker out, Headphone out
  • switch for low volume output mode

The reason I purchased the 2011 version of the combo was primarily due to the additional “low volume” switch that wasn’t present on the original Class 5. This switch really does allow the bedroom guitarist play through a screaming, all-valve, Marshall amp without annoying the wife/neighbours/kids/dog etc (delete as appropriate!).

The amp looks good too, with a nod to the old ‘60’s Bluesbreaker combos, sporting a well finished tolex covering and attractive grill cloth.

Ease of use:

The Class 5 combo is so easy to use. With only a volume control and 3-band EQ to be concerned with, it’s very much a “set it and forget it” amplifier. You can obtain a good tone in a few minutes.

The “Low Volume” mode is activated by a switch on the rear panel of the amplifier and is easily accessible.

Sound Quality:

I’ve used the amplifier in different scenarios (locations & venues, with/without pedals, variety of guitars etc) to see how the variations effect the sound quality of the amp.

As mentioned above, to dial in a sound to suit your guitar is very easy, even if swapping between humbucker and single coil equipped guitars.

The first aspect that hits you is the huge volume this unassuming amplifier emits – it’s VERY loud. Don’t be drawn into the “5W means low volume” misconception. With the volume up past 5 (half way), you may find you’ll leave a practice session with your ears ringing – there’s no doubt about it, the volume of the amp will hold its own alongside a number of drummers!

Using a humbucker equipped guitar, expect clean tones to gently begin to break up (when strumming with medium force) with the volume control set to around 4-5. The joy of the amp is somewhat in unison the further you increase the volume, as the rise in volume makes way for an increasingly rich, powerful, valve-driven overdrive.

If you’re fortunate enough to practice or play in a venue that accommodates music played relatively loudly, you’ll have no need for an overdrive pedal. Crank the volume as far as you can get away with, use your guitar volume/tone controls to vary the headroom and you’ll be in valve overdrive heaven.

I mainly use the amp at home and at church. At home, I have no need to use an overdrive pedal, but at church, the amp’s guitar volume seldom passes the 3-4 mark (bah!). In this scenario, a good overdrive pedal is needed (at the time of writing I’m using a BB Preamp Overdrive, which is brilliant). With the amp volume set to 4, the initial bloom of sound is full and just on the edge of breakup, depending on the guitar that’s being used. This provides a surprising amount of versatility, especially in conjunction with a good overdrive pedal. It’s worth mentioning, the Class 5 combo takes pedals very well indeed.

The “Low Volume” switch could be used in those scenarios, but the ability to obtain full, clean tones is subsequently negligible.

Typically, I set the amplifier volume to as loud as I can get away with, engage my overdrive pedal and back the guitar volume to half-way, adjusting further to vary the gain accordingly (rhythm & lead).

With regards to the EQ, there’s surprisingly a lot of bass on tap, much more than I ever would have expected. Too much treble has often been my “achilles heel” with regards to my personal tone quest, but there’s no fear of that with the C5-01. I find myself lowering the bass and cranking the mids/treble on the amp and varying the tone using the guitar controls.

The amplifier sounds good with all my guitars – especially my Fender Stratocaster. You can easily obtain some classic Hendrix/Frusciante tones.

No problems so far. I’ve wondered how easy it would be to change the valves though (as and when it’s required), but I haven’t ventured into the bowels of the amp yet.

With regards to Marshall customer services, in my experience, they’re brilliant. A problem occurred with the reverb on my Vintage/Modern combo and it was fixed and returned for free within a couple of days (so make sure you register for your warranty!).

In summary, I’d say the amp is very much suited to the guitarist who delights in using the guitar volume and tone controls to vary the overall tone and gain emitted from an amplifier. That being said, this is a surprisingly loud amp, so depending on the venue, you may have to use an overdrive pedal.

I’m more than 100% happy with the amp. It’s great fun to play through, with good clean and valve-driven overdrive tones and the addition of the “Low Volume” switch will keep you grinning for days.

If you’re looking for a good, low-powered, all valve combo, that encompasses classic British rock tones, you can’t go wrong with the Marshall Class 5. It’s surprisingly versatile too and I can imagine it being used in a variety of musical genres.
