In parabolic antennas such as satellite dishes, a feed horn is a small horn antenna used to convey radio waves between the transmitter and/or receiver and the parabolic reflector. In transmitting antennas, it is connected to the transmitter and converts the radio frequency alternating current from the transmitter to radio waves and feeds them to the rest of the antenna, which focuses them into a beam. In receiving antennas, incoming radio waves are gathered and focused by the antenna's reflector on the feed horn, which converts them to a tiny radio frequency voltage, amplified by the receiver. Feed horns are used at microwave and higher frequencies; the feedhorn selects the polarization of the waves to be received, which helps to attenuate unwanted signals from adjacent channels and transponders, from other communications satellites at nearby orbital positions. This can be either horizontal or vertical if the polarization is linear, or clockwise or counterclockwise if it is circular. Certain devices can allow a feedhorn to accept both linear and circular, though these cause a slight insertion loss to all incoming signals.

When used with a parabolic reflector or lens antenna, the phase center of the horn is placed at the focal point of the reflector, with the 3 dB points of the horn's radiation pattern set to be at the edge of the reflector. On a satellite dish, the feedhorn is what is mounted at the end of a mast from the center of the dish, or on tripod legs mounted to the edge of the dish. In satellite dishes, part of the receiver electronics, the RF front end, is mounted in a box just behind the feed horn; this converts the high satellite microwave downlink frequencies to a lower frequency so it can be more sent through the coaxial cable feedline to the receiver inside the building. This is called the low-noise block downconverter, the unit consisting of the horn plus the converter is called the LNB with feedhorn. Horn antenna Focal cloud

Her powers include control over several species of vampire/lycanthrope mixes, the ability to project her attention and mental powers, a deep control over darkness. Marmee Noir and her vampire/lycanthrope followers have been "sleeping" for centuries, for unknown reasons, in an underground tower that looks out on a wide open space, they are now beginning to awaken, spurred at least by Noir's interest in Anita.

Merlin was turned by Marmee Noir, appears to have some idea why she went to sleep, but has not revealed his theory to Anita. Anita believes that Belle Morte is gathering her power to challenge Noir for leadership of the Vampire Council, but Belle appears to be naively underestimating Marmee Noir's true nature and powers.

First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles is an independent congregation affiliated with the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations. Since its founding in 1877 the church has been a leader in social justice activism for the Unitarian Universalist faith, for the city of Los Angeles, its embrace of progressive causes and sometimes radical politics have earned it a reputation as both a place of controversy and a beacon of justice. Its affiliated organization, Urban Partners Los Angeles, provides numerous programs in the neighborhood around the church. First Unitarian Church is located at 2936 West 8th Street in Los Angeles. Located on the border between the Koreatown and Westlake neighborhoods of Los Angeles, three blocks from the LA Metro stop at Wilshire and Vermont, First Church serves a racially and economically diverse population; the neighborhood around First Church was engulfed in the 1992 Los Angeles riots that followed the Rodney King beating in 1991. In response, First Church and other Unitarian Universalist churches in the greater Los Angeles area founded the Unitarian Universalist Urban Ministry offering social service programs that continue to this day under the name Urban Partners Los Angeles.

The church was founded March 1877 in the home of Theodoric and Caroline Seymour Severance. The Severances had moved to Los Angeles in 1875 from Boston where they had been Unitarians in the congregation of Theodore Parker; the church was incorporated under the name Church of the Unity, on May 25, 1888. The congregation met in the Severance home, called "El Nido" at 806 West Adams on the corner of what is now Severance Street, near downtown Los Angeles. An official street sign marks the site, now a parking lot for the John Tracy Clinic; the fledgling church met at the Odd Fellows Hall on Main Street and the Union Hall on Spring Street and the Masonic Hall at 133 South Spring Street. In 1887 the church built its first church building at 7th Avenue between Broadway and Hill on land donated to the church by its minister, Eli Fay; the building was dedicated on June 14, 1889 and destroyed by fire on Easter Sunday, 1891. The Church found space to meet in a building at Third and Hill owned by the Central Baptist Church, which the Unitarians bought a few months later.

First Church owns the portion of the parking reserved for church use. After 99 years ownership of the entire building and the property will revert to First Church.

Ground was broken for the current church building on October 10, 1926 on three vacant lots on 8th Street between Vermont and Westmoreland. The cornerstone was laid on September 18, 1927 in a ceremony officiated by the President of the American Unitarian Association, Samuel A. Eliot; the architects were Allison. The building is constructed of poured concrete in the Renaissance Revival style. In 1962 a separate religious education building, called the Hardyman Center, was constructed on Francis Avenue behind the existing church; the Hardyman Center was demolished in June 2012 to make way for the Caroline Severance Manor. Sunset Hall was a retirement home for religious liberals founded in 1923 by members of First Church with money raised by the Women's Alliance of First Church. Intended as a means of support for elderly persons with progressive values in the days before social security, the home thrived for several decades before declining and closing.
