From "Channeling Class":
"...You will know how to interpret the information in my energy because
it will show up as a pattern in your imagination.

"Channeling, like all other inner phenomena happens in the imagination.
This is the faculty humans use to access the inner planes, spiritual
worlds, divine reality or whatever you wish to call what is beyond the
external, material world. We'll make use of the imagination to establish
contact with each other, and to carry out the channeling process. You can
think of the imagination as a permeable membrane located right at the
water line in the metaphor of the iceberg in the introduction to this
class. Being between the two major parts of the mind, it is shared by
both.

"New ideas, insights, creative inspiration and intuition all begin in the
unconscious mind. As these kinds of impressions, including the energy you
will be interpreting, rise to awareness, they pass through the
imagination. The conscious, aware mind perceives these impressions as
representations in the imagination. Sometimes the impressions are
represented visually as images or pictures, sometimes auditorily as
sounds or words, and sometimes sensorially as feelings or energy."

probably always married. The basic female "strategy" is to obtain the
best possible husband, to be fertilized by the fittest available male

returns on sexual favors bestowed: to be sexually aroused by the sight of
males would promote random matings, thus undermining all of these aims,
and would also waste time and energy that could be spent in economically
significant activities and in nurturing children. A female's reproductive
success would be seriously compromised by the propensity to be sexually

To me the terms involved are open to too many interpretations. As

Where *do* you get this requirement for changing polarity? We
don't call it "Alternating Polarity", we call it "Alternating
Current". If the current is being altered, it's AC. You keep
talking about AP, and it isn't the same.


'Alternating' is not the same as 'altering'. "Alternating current" is an
electrical current where the magnitude and *direction* [emphasis added]
varies cyclically.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternating_current

One may 'alter' the magnitude of a DC current without it becoming
'alternating current'

The problem with that definition is that it is unnecessarily limiting.
You can find other sources where the definition reads "magnitude *or*
direction," the latter which I believe to be more correct. If the
signal is steady state, then the current that changes magnitude but
never direction is simply an AC signal with a DC component greater in
positive amplitude than the negative peak of the AC component.

Not true, unless 0.01+ oC counts as "0C" or "boil" has
some novel meaning other than a liquid to vapor phase
transition occuring within the liquid due to applied heat.

Since, by your own admission, the boiling and freezing point
temperatures of water are pressure dependent, I invite you to state
what pressure would be required to be exerted on a volume of liquid
water in order to cause it to boil at 0°C.

[Stuff on latent heat zapped.]

I am simply
going by memory of my old Physics classes, and I have no idea what
pressure would be required to allow water to boil at 0 C. I think
other substances have boiled at lower temperatures than that at STP
though.

If you peruse the phase space of water at
http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/phase.html
you will see that there is no liquid/vapor boundary
at 0 oC. At a range of pressure well below standard
atmospheric, it could happen near 0.01 oC.

John's challenge is a bit of a trick and appears
to show he knows how to read that graph and
accompanying table.

Are you saying that it could happen at 0.01C but not at 0.00C,
because you see something in that chart which says water is liquid
at 0.01C and not at 0.00C?

I said "near 0.01 oC", not "at". At temperatures above
the triple point (at 0.01 oC), a liquid/vapor phase change
exists. Below that, there is no such phase change, so
there is no possibility of boiling, which requires a liquid.
Precisely at the triple point, I'm not sure it is meaningful
to speak of boiling because the triple point exists under
equilibrium conditions and boiling is not an equilibrium.
(Boiling is a catastrophic process.)

I don't see that in the chart at all. The chart does not have
sufficient resolution. It doesn't discuss that in the text
either.

The table of triple points shows, in its first row, that triple
point often referred to as "the triple point". (That is the one
now used to define 0.01 oC on the Centrigrade temperature
scale.) This triple point, between the liquid, Ih (hexagonal
ice-one) and vapor phases, represents the lowest pressure
at which an Ih/liquid phase transition exists, as can be seen
from the graph. It is clear from the graph that the vapor
phase boundary slope is continuous as it passes thru that
triple point, and has positive slope. So, clearly, where it
passes thru 0 oC has to be below that triple point.

Did you mean something else?

Nope.

Actually that isn't the convention, it's just that some Asian makers did it

marked on the positive terminals with various symbols.

You need to let us know what make of RP Monitor the Arcade Cabinet is using.
Sega and Namco cover most of the basic convergence in their manuals. You can
download some of them on line.

If it's some unknown cabinet you can have a peek at the chassis / PCBs and
look for manufacture names.

Hi There

There is a guy in Stratford East London does fixed price TV repairs.....

Don't get any cheapo set unless you wan to to go shopping again in 16

As for your sony, this set uses the LE2 chassis, the error code 11
flashes = transistors Q606,Q607, resistor R603(0R1) open or changed
value, and possibly capacitor C641(470UF35V). Total cost of those
components about a tenner.

6 flashes means its the line transistor.

get a DECENT tech to look at it, dont get a call out, take it in
somewhere. if repaired it will probebly long outlive any cheapo turkish
shit from the supermarket.

hope this helps, Ben
