Colonel Sanders, at age 65, had a beat-up car and $100 check from Social Security as assets. He realized he had to improve his position. He remembered his mother's friend chicken recipe and went out selling. How many doors did he have to knock before he got his first order? It is estimated that he had knocked on more than a thousand doors before he got his first order.
How many of us wait till the 10th try before we quit and then say; "I really tried as hard as I could!"
As a young cartoonist, Walt Disney faced many rejections from newspaper editors who said he had no talent. One day a minister at a church hired him to draw some cartoons. Disney was working out of a small rodent-infested shed near the church. Seeing a small mouse inspired him to draw a new cartoon. That was the start of Mickey Mouse and we all know the rest is history.
Successful people become successful not because they do things differently. No! They become high flyers only because they do the small things that matter in great ways and never give up despite the challenges and obstacles that stand in their way.
Can you imagine where we'd be without the invention of Lee De Forest. He invented the triode tube and in 1913 was charged by the district attorney for using fraudulent means to mislead the public into buying stocks in his company by claiming that he could transmit the human voice across the Atlantic. He was publicly humiliated. Today we know he was right to have made that claim.
Looking into history, you'll find that the world's greatest success stories have a life tinged with great failures but instead of quitting, they go on despite the odds because all they see is the one purpose in which they are in pursuit. But people don't see the failures. They see only the success and forget that every overnight success has been in the making for years.
It is not about getting lucky. It is not about just being at the right place at the right time. It is simply about deciding not to quit. Successful people understand the words of Christopher Morley; "Big shots are only little shots that keep shooting."

History Of Electronics
Electronics is one of the most important branches of science till date. With its advancement the world has completely changed into a different thing. It has given a complete make-over to our life, from being a sluggish one to a rapid fast life. It has influenced our life in each and every way. From the time we wake up in the morning till the night when we go to bed. Electronics is touching our life in every aspect. We use them for all purpose, either as a necessity, or just for the entertainment purpose, for example television, i pods, etc.
If we go back into the history of electronics, then we will come to know that there were three major components in electronics. The first was Vacuum tubes, which was invented by Thomas Alva Edison in the year 1883. He made the invention when he discovered that through vacuum, electrons can flow from one metal conductor to another. Later this discovery was given the term of Edison effect. With the invention of vacuum tube it became possible to manipulate the electrical energy; hence they were used for transmitting and amplifying purposes. In those days, the vacuum tubes were used to be very big in size, which easily gets heated-up. After the invention of vacuum tubes, in the year 1904, John Fleming invented a two element electron tube called Diode. It was based upon the Edison effect. Eventually, in the year 1906 Lee De Forest invented the three-element tube, the Triode. It was in 1896 when the first application of the electron tubes was made. They were used in radio communications by Guglielmo Marconi. By 1906, he finally made an impact by creating long-distance radio communication. It proved to be revolutionary step in the field of electronics.
Prior to World War II, the development in the field of communication technology took at a very fast pace. According to the needs, various specialized tubes were produced. It was the period when radio was thought to be the primary source of entertainment, and also a form of education. In the year 1920, Bell Laboratories made an impact in the field of electronics, when the invented the television. By the year 1927, television finally became widely available. During the course, Bell Laboratories introduced the cathode ray picture tube and color television.
After the World War II, the first computer was developed through the electron tubes. But because of their bulky size, they were of not use. As necessity is the mother of invention, hence it resulted in the invention of transistors. A group of scientist from Bell Laboratories made the invention of transistors during the year 1947, for which they also received a Noble Prize. The invention of transistors gave a boost to the development of the world. They were smaller, lighter, cheaper, and more efficient in comparison to the vacuum tubes. Soon the concept of integrated circuits was introduced in the year 1952 from the Royal Radar Establishment. Since then, electronics has completely changed our life.

power tube heaters from 4x AA battery?
Is it alright to do this? I am experimenting with a single subminiature triode tube, would it be alright to power the heater from 4x AA batteries for 6v DC output and have the single heater in series with this?
Yes I can find some D cells to use, just no holder for them >.< Is there anything special I should know about how to wire it up? The batteries straight into the heater in series wont kill it will it? Should I have some resistor in parallel with it?
Ya!
it wont last very long. if it is a quick job, it will do.

Vincent Audio's KHV-111MK Hybrid Vacuum Tube Headphone Amp is Now Available
If you're serious about listening to music through headphones, you know that a headphone amplifier is an essential piece of equipment. Vincent's new KHV-111MK aims to be the ultimate headphone amp. It's a hybrid of solid-state circuitry and a 12AX7 vacuum tube input stage. That means it uses a two-channel Class A triode tube. It's also got a large and stable power supply to support the hybrid ...
