Combo Set
What is the best Amp/speaker combo for a DJ set up in a house just for personal use ? Best bang for buck.?
I have turntables and want something simple, but clear and somewhat punchy for my home. This is strictly for my personal enjoyment, so does not have to be pro. I have some old Sony 15" speakers, but don't know how to power them properly. What amp should I get, or should I just get a package deal of the whole set up?
I like the Behringer amps:

Pretty much any good DJ speakers will work well. If you want bass, make sure the speaker has a 15 inch woofer:

I have used DJ speakers at home - they do work well.

Bodybuilding Sets and Reps
Sets and reps combo are one of the key things needed to successfully build muscles in bodybuilding. We must first understand sets and reps.
A set is a group of reps done one after the other. A rep is one complete lift of the weight or completed movement.
There is usually a 1 to 2 minute rest between sets. For building more muscle mass, the best set and rep combo is 6 to 8 reps and with the final rep being very hard to lift.
The amounts of sets done varies between type of exercises, but the norm is 3 sets per body part. That is enough to gain muscle growth. The best set to rep combo for more muscle definition would be 8 to 12 reps using lighter weights.
This is done for a more cut look, rather than mass.
For each time you exercise 3 sets of 6 to 8 reps for each body part is all that is required for building mass. Sticking with the compound exercise for beginners such as squats for legs, barbell curls for biceps, dips for triceps and bench press for chest, is all you need when beginning.
You will find that this is enough to build muscle and will see results within the first 3 weeks after starting out. Remember, set and reps are important but also only part of the whole process which includes eating lots of proteins and carbs. Carbs for energy and protein for muscle growth. Muscles grow during rest time when the muscle tissues repair themselves.
In order to find the right weight amounts so that the final rep is very hard, you will have to use some trial and error with different weight amounts.

The Painter interface
Painter defines the fundamental interface for all objects that are meant to draw backgrounds or to render on a glass pane. This interface declares only one method-public void paint(Graphics g, Rectangle rect)-for drawing inside the bounding rectangle (specifed by rect) of a component. The library provides a class that implements Painter and is used as a default background painter for widgets and containers. This is the BackgroundPainter class that has (you guessed it) just the one method paint, which either paints the background image if one has been assigned or fills in the bounding rectangle of the component with the color set in its style.
When we want to paint a background ourselves, we can write our own class that implements Painter, and set it as the background painter for the relevant component. The DemoPainter MIDlet, discussed in the next section, shows how this is done.
The DemoPainter application
This application creates a combo box and uses a theme to set the style for the various elements that are displayed. When the application is compiled without setting a custom background painter, the combo box looks as shown in the following screenshot:
The MIDlet code has the following statement commented out in the MIDlet. When uncommented, this statement sets an instance of ComboBgPainter as the background painter for the combo box.
combobox.getStyle().setBgPainter(new ComboBgPainter(0x4b338c));
The class responsible for drawing the background is ComboBgPainter, which implements Painter. The constructor for this class takes the color to be used for background painting as its only parameter. The paint method determines the coordinates of the top-left corner of the rectangle to be painted and its dimensions. The rectangle is then flled using the color that was set through the constructor.
class ComboBgPainter implements Painter
{
private int bgcolor;
public ComboBgPainter(int bgcolor)
{
this.bgcolor = bgcolor;
}
public void paint(Graphics g, Rectangle rect)
{
g.setColor(bgcolor);
int x = rect.getX();
int y = rect.getY();
int wd = rect.getSize().getWidth();
int ht = rect.getSize().getHeight();
g.fillRect(x, y, wd, ht);
}
}
Drawing a multi-layered background
In actual practice, there is hardly any point in using a custom painter just to paint a background color, because the setBgColor method of Style will usually do the job. Themes too can be used for setting background colors. However, painters are very useful when intricate background patterns need to be drawn, and especially if multiple layers are involved. PainterChain, described in the next section, is a class designed for handling such requirements.
The PainterChain class
It is possible to use more than one painter to render different layers of a background. Such a set of painters can be chained together through the PainterChain class. The only constructor of this class has the form public PainterChain(Painter[] chain) where the parameter chain is an array of painters. The contents of chain will be called sequentially during the painting of a background, starting from the element at index 0 to the last one.
There are two methods of the PainterChain class that provide support for adding painters to the array underlying the chain. A new painter can be added either to the top (the prependPainter method) or at the end (the addPainter method) of the array. The array itself can be accessed through the getChain method.
PainterChain implements Painter so that the setBgPainter method can be used to set a PainterChain as well as a lone painter, which means the paint method also is present here. The function of paint in PainterChain is to call the paint methods of the painter array elements one by one starting at index 0.
The DemoPainterChain application that comes up next shows how a chain of painters can be used to draw the multiple layers of a background.
