Stereo 2 way Crossover | miniDSP
In this application note, we will show you how to design an active 2-way loudspeaker. 3-way and 4-way speakers are an extension of the approach described here. What you will need A miniDSP. For a two-way speaker, a miniDSP kit, miniDSP 2x4, or a miniDSP Balanced 2x4 are suitable.A miniDSP plugin. If you have a digital source, you can add a miniDIGI card to the miniDSP kit to get digital input. This is the block diagram of the two-way plugin. 1. If you are starting from scratch, you will need to select the drivers for your speakers. If you are modifying an existing speaker from passive to active, then you have the drivers. 2. If you are building your own box, you will need to design it. 3. Once you have built the box and mounted the drivers, you will need to measure the drivers one at a time. You will need to use the output parametric EQ blocks to shape the response of each driver so that it is flat over its operating range. Let's start with the woofer. 4. 5. Wrapping up

Girl Scout cookie controversy: Kids saddled with financial risk? - OC Watchdog : The Orange County Register
Gabriella and her mother may love the new "Cookies Now" program, but Misty Perry Isaacson does not share their ardor. Isaacson, an attorney in Santa Ana during non-Girl Scout hours, is also the "cookie manager" for her daughter's troop. Used to be that the girls (and/or their parents) toted around a multi-colored grid sheet; recorded orders for boxes of Caramel deLites, Thin Mints et al on that multi-colored grid sheet; and then delivered the cookies a month or so later. Now, there's another way. The new way of selling Girl Scout cookies -- which is supposed to be easier, faster and more fun -- asks troops to pre-order cookies based on last year's sales, and then go out and sell them. This streamlines the whole process, eliminates the cumbersome order sheet and has been enormously popular where it's been tested, the Scouts say. The problem, according to Isaacson, is that it leaves girls and their parents on the hook for paying for the cookies they pre-order, whether they sell them or not.

L’humiliation tue l’innovation
La question de l’innovation est récurrente dans les grandes entreprises. C’est une tarte à la crème: tous les dirigeants souhaitent que leurs collaborateurs fassent preuve d’imagination et d’initiative pour inventer des solutions originales permettant de conquérir des marchés et de fidéliser les clients. Mais le concept d’innovation est difficile à cerner, souvent incantatoire, et les managers ont du mal à imaginer ce que cela signifie concrètement que de «développer l’innovation». Les nombreuses conversations que j’aie eues à ce sujet chez AREVA et ailleurs ont fini par clarifier un peu les choses dans mon esprit, à la lumière de ma compréhension de la dynamique des communautés professionnelles décrite dans mon livre en 2007. Dans ce contexte, l’ennemi absolu de l’innovation, c’est l’humiliation. Un troisième forme d’innovation, dite « participative », concerne ces “boîtes à idées” qu’on place un peu partout dans les entreprises, majoritairement en version intranet aujourd’hui.
