Playboys gang

Playboys 13 Gang, also known by the short name PBS13, is a violent, predominantly Hispanic street gang in West and East Los Angeles, California. They sometimes use the name Conejo or Rabbit gang. They align themselves with the Mexican Mafia, also known as La eme (which is Spanish for the letter M), while in prison and set aside their rivalry with other Sureño gangs. In some areas they refer to their houses and meeting or hang out areas as rabbit holes.

History

They began on the corner of Pico Boulevard and Fedora Street in West Los Angeles, California in the mid 1950s. They were originally a car club called, "Southern Califas Latin Playboys Car Club." Cliques from the West Side moved to Burbank, California in the 80's and have spread out to North Hollywood and other cities in the San Fernando Valley. Eastside Playboys started in 1975 on 49th street in Los Angeles, California and the Southside Playboys started in 1982 in Bell Gardens and South Gate, California. In the beginning they were all Hispanic, but in recent years, even though it is rare, other ethnic groups have been able to gain membership making them multiethnic. However, the Playboys remain predominantly Hispanic in all their cliques from Latin America to the United States.

WNEO

WNEO, virtual channel and UHF digital channel 45, is a PBS member television station licensed to Alliance, Ohio. The station's programming is simulcast on satellite station WEAO, virtual channel 49 (UHF digital channel 50), in Akron. The two stations utilize the unified brand "Western Reserve PBS". WNEO is the PBS member station of record for Youngstown, while WEAO provides the Cleveland market with a second choice for PBS programming alongside the market's flagship PBS station, WVIZ.

WNEO and WEAO are owned by Northeastern Educational Television of Ohio, which is a consortium of the University of Akron, Kent State University and Youngstown State University. The two stations operate from studio facilities located on Kent State's campus in Kent, northeast of Akron and roughly west of Youngstown; WNEO's transmitter is located in Salem, WEAO's transmitter is located in Copley.

WNEO also operates W44CR-D, a low-power digital translator in Youngstown, which serves low-lying areas in the Mahoning Valley that are shadowed from the main WNEO signal. The digital translator, which signed on the air in 2009, is a conversion of former analog translator, W58AM, that broadcast at the same location.

Lead(II) sulfide

Lead(II) sulfide (also spelled sulphide) is an inorganic compound with the formula PbS. PbS, also known as galena, is the principal ore, and most important compound of lead. It is a semiconducting material with niche uses.

Formation, basic properties, related materials

Addition of hydrogen sulfide or sulfide salts to a solution of lead ions gives PbS as an insoluble black precipitate.

The equilibrium constant for this reaction is 3×10⁶ M. This reaction, which entails a dramatic color change from colourless or white to black, was once used in qualitative inorganic analysis. The presence of hydrogen sulfide or sulfide ions is still routinely tested using "lead acetate paper."

Like the related materials PbSe and PbTe, PbS is a semiconductor. In fact, lead sulfide was one of the earliest materials to be used as a semiconductor. Lead sulfide crystallizes in the sodium chloride motif, unlike many other IV-VI semiconductors.

Since PbS is the main ore of lead, much effort has focused on its conversion. A major process involves smelting of PbS followed by reduction of the resulting oxide. Idealized equations for these two steps are:

Listen (Emanuel and the Fear album)

Listen is the first full-length album from Brooklyn-based symphonic rock band Emanuel and the Fear and was released via Paper Garden in March 2010.

Critical reception

Regarding Emanuel and the Fear's first full-length record, The 405 wrote: "The haunting mish-mash of psychedelia, poetic lyrics, pop and post-rock is tremendously put together and while a little overblown at times, it never gets in the way of the clarity of any song. Mixing The National's sentimentality with the integrity of Eels, a dedicated cult following already awaits."
