    Fi SSD or Fi Q @ 1200w

    The BL 12 i have is amazing, i put it in a 2 ft^3 box with 50^2 of port and tuned it to ~34 hz. Its great on everything i jam too. I will say that it might do better on a little less port area though depending on what your looking for.

    Nope, my family is full of MD's (Grandpa, Dad, brother, cousin) but no MD/PhD's. My dad always wanted to do research but he didnt have all of the same opportunities i have since he is from Guatemala and got his MD there. He loves medicine but also has a passion for pure science which has been passed on to me fortunately. Hopefully i will be able to achieve my goals of becoming a doctor/scientist.

    The ihop isnt letting me quote for some reason dembeats: the GRE is the graduate record examinations. I need to take it in order to be accepted in the graduate program at LSU so i can do my masters. Quentin: MD is normally 4 years but its going to take 6 for me to do MD/PhD. Thats where you do 2 years of med school, then get your PhD in the next 2 years and finally finish the last 2 years of med school afterwards. Right now im trying to squeeze a 2 year masters into 1 year, its gonna be a shit ton of work if lol. My supervising professor of my lab recommended i try this since it will give me an impressive resume when applying for MD/PhD next year. Im going to be working on a new project soon that we hope to write a published paper on. If all goes well i should be the second author on it. That will certainly help also.

    I'm gonna start bugging you about the ins and outs to everything in a year or so. I'm looking at a BS in biochem and BS in MCB then decide if I want to continue on. In my chem class this girl is double majoring in the same fields as me, so I told her I'm going to sign up for every single one of her classes for the next four years, ROFL. LMAO, I sort of did that with a buddy i graduated high school with. We both went into biochem and he always figured out his schedule before me so i just copied it haha. But if you want some info on a BS in Biochem ill be glad to help, plus i should have a fresh perspective compared to some since i just got my degree this month lol.

    I thought i new some pretty important people, but i guess i thought wrong lmao. Either way if my plan for the next year is fulfilled then i should be in a very good position to do what i want, which is clinical research. Just have to move forward

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    You better start interning with a alumni MD if you wanna have a chance of getting accepted. Wont have time, its going to be difficult to get my masters in 1 year. Im going to apply to many other programs and hopefully I can get a full ride. My gpa and MCAT are good so thats straight. I need to schedule an appointment with the admissions committee to see why i didnt get it in. I found your problem. Seriously though I hope it all works out in the end. Heard Mcat is a bitch, so that's good to do well on. Thanks man, now i need to prepare for the GRE that i scheduled today and am taking next thursday LOL. They sure didnt give me much time hahaha

    Well, I found out my application to LSU NO med school was rejected today. It sucks, but i talked to my research professor and i can do a masters in the next year and reapply for MD/PhD so at least i have a plan... On a lighter and more positive note, one more year for LSU football and tailgating LOL

    I just realized i might be able to do this if i export the two channels individually and overlay them.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    What are you trying to do? I took some fluorescent images of neurons labeling two proteins. One is red and the other is in green. I exported them from SlideBook as a 16 bit tiff file then I converted the image to RGB but all of the channels are the same intensity. I am trying to view the file as it was originally rendered; with different intensities for each color and keep their respective locations on the image (my whole paper is to see the relative position of these proteins). Any ideas how to separate them?

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Very nice paint job and I like the frette inlay. Thanks, it plays a good as it looks too! Do you pick a little? I used to play daily until I shattered my left wrist in a car wreck a number of years ago. Now it is a struggle to have fine muscle control with out much pain for extended periods, not to mention the time has escaped me on being able to practice. Never too late to pick it back up Have you heard of Django Reinhardt?

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Um, that part he did right 100 -100 = 10^2 - 10^2 = (10+10)*(10-10) = 10*10 - 10*10 + 10*10 - 10*10 Getting confused? x^2-y^2 = (x+y)*(x-y)

    FAT Loss

    I checked out Generation UCan and they make a pretty interesting product. It shows that insulin remains unaltered and fatty acids are oxidized at a high rate, but they show no data about blood glucose levels. Still, its something that id like to try out. Edit: I clicked the download link and found the published articles with the glucose data lol, gonna take a look at it later.

    FAT Loss

    I'd like to clear up your statement about carbohydrates. Not all carbs are created equal and thus do not spike your insulin levels the same. Carbs can be simple (glucose) or complex (starches). The most important difference for the two is the rate of digestion. Simple carbs do not require much energy or time for break down, resulting in a larger insulin spike and fat storage. Complex carbs, such as those from legumes, take more time and energy to break down making them more beneficial for weight loss. The best way to compare foods by their ability to spike insulin is through the glycemic index. The GI is scale from 1-100 that compares the rate of increase in blood glucose of the test food to ingestion of pure glucose, with glucose being 100. Thus the lower the GI the better in terms of overall health benefits and weight loss as a steady release of glucose into the blood yields a steady release of insulin and not a spike. There is also the problem of high fructose corn syrup, but thats another matter.

    Box question

    Id say do more around 2 cubes per sub, with ~ 40 sq inches of port area per sub also. So ~8 cubes net with ~160 square inches of port. Tune it between 30-35 hz and you'll be moving massive amounts of air. I gained output and bandwith when i went from 2.5 cubes to 2 cubes.
