A. I actually work for a company that just seeded a hedge fund, so I feel confident I can answer the question. You don't need to register the product with the SEC but you will need to meet specific criteria to qualify for Reg D exception under Rule 505 or 506. To create a private offering you will need to create the necessary legal documents including a Private Placement Memorandum and a Limited Partnership Agreement. You also may want to consider registering as an Investment Advisor with the SEC and filing a form ADV because it adds an additional level of validity to your business and the cost to register is only $150, almost all hedge funds I deal with are registered as an investment advisor with the SEC.

Where are the voltage regulators located exactly on my Sony KP53V45 TV?
Q. Having picture problems, it flashes off and on constantly. Was told it was either a voltage regulator touching something or one of the picture tubes.

A. Voltage regulators are usually scattered over the circuit board , they come in a variety of voltages , they are usually a three pin device that looks like a flat pack transistor so there is nothing about them them that marks them as volts reg except the markings on them ! To find yours you will need the schematic for your Sony , know how to read it and then locate them on the cct board. May I ask why you need to know ? Cheers Pete

Is the Aqua Lung regulators a good choice or is there a better one for the money?
Q. I am looking into scuba diving and am leaning towards the aqua lung legend regulator. It is expensive compared to others. Not knowing too much about all the various brands, I am finding it hard to know which one is a good one for the money.

A. The reg you by really depends on the type of diving you are or will be doing. Will you be going into Nitrox diving? Cold Water? Tropical ? Do you have problems with jaw fatigue? Will you be travelling alot and have weight issues? By all means spend as much as you can reasonably afford on a "really good " regulator, it is you life support system, but in this day and age one brand seldom stands ahead of the pack for long and many are designed with specific types of diving and divers in mind. I personally have a Dacor set-up which is light that I use in warm water and in the Caribbean, and a Mares Abyss set-up that I use in the winter and diving in the North Atlantic.
