Stylus RMX 1.7 demonstrated at Namm
Spectrasonics demonstrated Stylus RMX®version 1.7 featuring an innovative and completely new capability called 'Time Designer™' which intelligently transforms RMX audio loops into different time signatures and features the ability to "Groove Lock" the feel of any groove to another – all in real time.
Time Designer also lets the user create instant pattern variations with smart algorithms based on musical rules, and to 'simplify' any RMX groove in a musical manner. Version 1.7 is also the first 64-bit native software release from Spectrasonics and includes useful workflow enhancements to RMX, such as Suite Editing and Host Transport Sync.
Eric Persing, Founder and Creative Director of Spectrasonics notes, "Stylus RMX version 1.7 with Time Designer will be a major creative boost for many users with its ability to instantly Groove Lock to the feel of any groove across the whole core library of grooves and expanders. It's like suddenly having ten times the amount of grooves at your fingertips! Over the years, many composers and arrangers have requested the ability to have any groove in any time signature: now they can. With all of this and the ability to create pattern variations in a totally musical way, the new version of RMX is almost a rebirth of the plug-in and how it can be used. We are really looking forward to seeing how this inspires our users to take their groove production into brand new musical directions."
The new RMX version 1.7 reveals a totally new way to browse and use the entire RMX core library and SAGE Xpanders by offering the user the ability to Groove Lock any loop in real time to another loop or MIDI File. The user simply chooses a designated loop as the Groove Lock master, and switches one button: now all the loops that are played as the user browses are Groove Locked to that main feel.
And all of RMX's Time Designer capabilities are available in any designated time signature. Once new Time Signatures are selected, the browsing experience works the same way – dramatically changing the experience of groove production in time signatures other than 4/4. Working on a 6/8 ballad? Simply choose 6/8 in Time Designer and the entire RMX library is now instantly available rearranged in 6/8 patterns!
For multiple time signatures in a piece of music the user simply sets the first time signature variation, drags and drops the MIDI file to the sequencer, then sets the time signature to a new one and repeats the process for each section of music that requires a new time signature. The MIDI Files that are dragged to the host sequencer are "imprinted" with all the Groove Lock and Time Signature changes in the MIDI data, making it easy to customize the loops further.
Time Designer's Pattern Variation section allows the user to instantly check out useful variations on a loop – which works differently than the constantly shifting/improvising 'Chaos Designer' feature that RMX introduced. Time Designer makes rearrangements of the pattern based on a series of musical rules creating useful variations, and is available for all time signatures (including 4/4 pattern variations). Best of all, Time Designer and Chaos Designer can be used together!
All Time Designer features will also work on third party RMX libraries and imported REX files, as long as the grooves are sliced properly.
RMX version 1.7 also sports several user-requested features such as suite editing for easy customization and better 'Favorites' management of users own collections of loops, sequencer host transport sync so that RMX will follow the host sequencer's transport controls and song position.
Version 1.7 is also the first 64-bit native software release from Spectrasonics, keeping pace with the industry-wide move towards 64-bit systems and access to more RAM. Windows 64-bit compatibility will be released first, then 64-bit Mac versions to follow.
The release date for Stylus RMX v1.7 with Time Designer is March 2, 2009, the update will be FREE to all registered RMX users as a download from the Spectrasonics website.
Here is some details on the previous versions applications.

Dinner Tonight: Grilled Tuna with Red Tomatillo Sauce Recipe
Your source for quick recipe every single week day.
I'm a sucker for tomatillos, and couldn't help but try out this recipe from Bobby Flay's Mesa Cookbook. My only worry was that the sauce would be a little too out of control. The red color comes from the chile powder.
I worried the sauce wouldn't so much harmonize with the tuna as destroy it. Luckily the sauce's bite is balanced both by those roasted tomatilos and a bit of honey. It actually plays very nicely.
And it really couldn't be much simpler. The tomatillos, onion, and garlic cloves are roasted and then blended with the rest of the sauce ingredients. Then all you have to do is grill the tuna steaks. Be sure not to overcook them. Much like regular steaks, it seems like a crime to cook them past medium rare.
What's New On Serious Eats
- Yield:4 people
- Active time: 30 minutes
- Total time:45 minutes
- 8 tomatillos, husks removed and rinsed
- 1 medium red onion, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, peeled
- 5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- Salt and pepper
- ½ habanero, stemmed, seeded, and minced
- 2 tablespoons New Mexico red chile powder
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 3 tablespoons fresh mint, chopped
- 4 eight-ounce tuna steaks (about 1-inch thick)
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Combine the tomatillos, onion, and garlic on a baking sheet and toss with three tablespoons of the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer baking sheet to the oven. Cook until the tomatillos are slightly charred, turning occasionally, 25 to 30 minutes.
When done, transfer all the ingredients from the baking sheet to a food processor along with the habanero, chile powder, vinegar, honey, cilantro, and mint. Blend until smooth, seasoning to taste with salt.
Meanwhile, preheat a grill or broiler to high heat. Brush both sides of the tuna steaks with the remaining oil and also season with salt and pepper. Place on the grill. Cook until well browned on one side, two to three minutes. Flip the tuna steaks and cook until browned on the other side, about two more minutes. The tuna should still be medium-rare in the center.
Spoon some of the sauce into the center of four plates, top each with a tuna steak.

Seaford Schools Superintendent Dr. Adele Pecora may be from Massapequa, but she projects Seaford Pride. A thoroughgoing professional with nearly 30 years of experience, she has only the highest praise for the district and the community and communicates a determination to do well by both.
Pecora, 52, is beginning her second year as superintendent of the Seaford Union Free School district after having served as assistant superintendent for instruction and curriculum in the Commack district. Before that, she was director of instruction, curriculum and technology in the neighboring Island Trees district.
Pecora was chosen to head the Seaford district after a months-long search in which the Board of Education worked with District Wise Consultants to review the field of potential candidates to succeed Brian Conboy, who retired after 33 years of service. "I'm very pleased that the district was able to attract a seasoned professional with a wealth of experience," Conboy said after Pecora's selection.
Pecora herself could hardly be more enthusiastic about her learning community. "When people use the term Seaford Pride, they're more than just words," she said. "There's a deep sense of loyalty, commitment and tradition that's intrinsic to the community."
After being named, Pecora began by setting up a process she called Listen to Learn, in which she interviewed more than 100 stakeholders, including students. "I asked them five questions," she said. "What is working well in Seaford Schools? What is working but needs to be tweaked? What is not working and should be abandoned? What traditions and values must we preserve as we move forward? And what advice do you have for the new superintendent?"
Pecora gathered the responses into a public presentation. "One thing people mentioned was a stronger use of technology," she said, adding emphatically, "We are extremely engaged with technology."
Choosing the hardware
Last year, Seaford formed a District Technology Steering Committee. "That group did a lot of the heavy lifting as to how to use technology to enhance instruction," she said. The group was tasked with determining the design of the program and selecting its technology platform. Pecora wanted to determine what a successful program might look like.
She also stressed the importance of selecting the right computer. "Our goal was to select a device that would be powerful enough to do what we wanted it to do, yet still be affordable — not cost-prohibitive." The district tested one device that wasn't robust enough before settling on a Hewlett Packard laptop. "It's small, it has a touch screen and it has a stylus," she said.
The device itself was only the first step. "Our focus has been on adopting the SAMR Instructional Model," Pecora said. "We want to be able to use the technology to awaken and foster inquiry, as well as to be able to synthesize information and yield greater learning. It isn't a new-age pencil or a paperweight."
The model is most often referred to as one-to-one, but the district's term is Personalized Digital Learning, or PDL.
SAMR stands for substitution, augmentation, modification and redefinition. Substitution is the replacement of one device with another, with no modification. Pecora used the example of note-taking with a pencil versus note-taking with a laptop — essentially a one-to-one substitution. In the second instance, augmentation, one device replaces another, but with functional or mechanical improvements. For example, note-taking with a laptop could enable the user to include formatting options not available with a pencil.
The third step, modification, entails a redesign of the task itself. In that case, note-taking could evolve into an interactive sharing via social media. Finally, redefinition — essentially a transformation of the entire process — could enable students to forgo note-taking entirely and record the session while providing multi-media enhancements.
The district began piloting the program last spring, giving devices to students in one Advanced Placement Capstone Seminar class and one science research class, Pecora said. "They pushed the limits," she said, "and they gave us some real-time feedback as to what was working and what wasn't."
In June, the district gave devices to sixth- and ninth-graders to use during the summer, as well as to every high school teacher. This year's sixth- and ninth-grades have recently gotten them as well.
The A.P. Capstone program is in its second year at Seaford High School and its third since being rolled out by College Board 2016. It is divided into two yearlong modules. The first, called Capstone Seminar, teaches students how to do college-level research projects. In the second year, called Capstone Research, they select a topic to research in detail and write a thesis on it, which they are required to defend before a panel of teachers.
"Capstone doesn't only focus on a series of tests," Pecora said. "It's also about doing in-depth research. The Capstone Program has an inquiry-based approach to instruction, and I believe strongly that it serves children well in whatever post-secondary experience they're going to have, be it college or career."
Students who successfully complete the course receive a special notation on their diplomas.
A focus on security
Pecora didn't want to talk too specifically about security procedures in the district, but in common with other local schools, Seaford has focused on both the security of the physical plant and students' mental health.
The district has hardened school entrances, and now has driver's license readers. Middle and high school students wear color-coded lanyards according to their year, and teachers must display IDs at all times. Security guards have been added, and all but one member of the security staff are former law-enforcement officers.
"We work very closely with Nassau County's SRO — school resource officer," Pecora said. "He has done walk-throughs of all the buildings with us. He's given us suggestions for enhancements, and we have regular dialogue with him."
The district has also added the Lions Quest curriculum as part of its focus on social and emotional learning. The program got its name from the Lions Clubs International, which provided much
of the funding for the program's deve-lopment.
The program is part of the character education common to many districts. Units might focus on values such as self-confidence. A lesson for fifth-graders, for example, used a quote from Henry Ford: "Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success."
Pecora has clearly found a second home in Seaford. "You'd be hard-pressed to find a more civic-minded community," she said. "We have a toy drive in December, and it's an awesome experience — just the giving nature of the community," she added. "We're never at a loss for
students, faculty members or community members that are willing to give of themselves."

It's almost cruel the way adults ease children into life outside of the house.
They got us on board with the whole going to school thing by letting us take naps in pre-school. But then, come kindergarten, no more naps! Nothing but 12 more grades of trying to focus all day without a siesta. But now, friends, it's a new day. In college you have two-hour chunks of free time between classes, just aching to be filled with some snooze action. And every now and then, a nap might take priority over going to class. For those times when you can't decide which road to take, think back on some of these facts about napping, and we're confident you'll know what to do.
25 Reasons To Feel Better About Napping
It makes you smarter
According to Dr. Matthew Walker of the University of California, napping for as little as one hour resets your short-term memory and helps you learn facts more easily after you wake up.
Abandon all-nighters
Foregoing sleep by cramming all night reduces your ability to retain information by up to 40%. If you can, mix in a nap somewhere to refresh your hippocampus.
It doesn't mean what you think
If you know you have to pull an all-nighter, try a "prophylactic nap." It's a short nap in advance of expected sleep deprivation that will help you stay alert for up to 10 hours afterwards.
You can't avoid that down period after lunch by not eating
Human bodies naturally go through two phases of deep tiredness, one between 2-4 a.m. and between 1-3 p.m. Skipping lunch won't help this period of diminished alertness and coordination.
Pick the right time
After lunch in the early afternoon your body naturally gets tired. This is the best time to take a brief nap, as it's early enough to not mess with your nighttime sleep.
Hour naps are great
A 60-minute nap improves alertness for 10 hours, although with naps over 45 minutes you risk what's known as "sleep inertia," that groggy feeling that may last for half an hour or more.
But short naps are best
For healthy young adults, naps as short as 20, 10, or even 2 minutes can be all you need to get the mental benefits of sleep, without risking grogginess.
Drink coffee first
The way this works is you drink a cup of coffee right before taking your 20-minute or half-hour nap, which is precisely how long caffeine takes to kick in. That way when you wake up, you're not only refreshed, but ready to go.
The NASA nap
A little group called NASA discovered that just a 26-minute nap increases performance by 34% and alertness by 54%. Pilots take advantage of NASA naps while planes are on autopilot.
Can't sleep? Don't stress
Even if you can't fall asleep for a nap, just laying down and resting has benefits. Studies have found resting results in lowered blood pressure, which even some college kids have to worry about if they are genetically predisposed to high blood pressure.
Napping may save your life
A multi-year Greek study found napping at least three times per week for at least 30 minutes resulted in a 37% lower death rate due to heart problems.
More nap benefits for the brain
Not only will napping improve your alertness, it will also help your decision-making, creativity, and sensory perception.
But wait, there's more
Studies have found napping raises your stamina 11%, increases ability to stay asleep all night by 12%, and lowers the time required to fall asleep by 14%.
The ultimate nap
According to Dr. Sara Mednick, the best nap occurs when REM sleep is in proportion to slow-wave sleep. Use her patented Take A Nap Nap Wheel to calculate what time of day you can nap to the max.
Fight the Freshman 15
Research shows that women who sleep five hours at night are 32% more likely to experience major weight gain than those sleeping seven hours. A two-hour nap isn't feasible for many, but napping is a good way to make up for at least some lost night sleep.
If it was good enough for them…
Presidents JFK and Bill Clinton used to nap every day to help ease the heavy burden of ruling the free world. Of course, they also had other relaxation methods, but we won't get into those.
Do like the Romans do
In ancient Rome, everyone, including children, retreated for a 2 or 3-hour nap after lunch. No doubt this is the reason the Roman empire lasted over 1,000 years.
Don't wait too long
The latest you want to wake up from a nap is five hours before bedtime, otherwise you risk not being able to fall asleep at night.
Sugar is not a good substitute for a nap
When we are tired, we instinctively reach for foods with a high glycemic index, but after the initial energy wears off, we're left more tired than we were before.
It's a good way to catch up
If it takes you less than five minutes to fall asleep at night, you are sleep deprived. If you never can seem to get to bed earlier at night, a mid-day nap is a great way to catch up on sleep.
Underclassmen need more sleep
Freshmen and sophomores who are still in your teens: you need up to 10 hours of sleep to feel rested. So odds are, you are sleep-deprived.
You'll have to leave the party sooner
After one school-week of not getting enough sleep, three alcoholic drinks will affect you the same way six would when you are fully rested.
Don't drive drowsy
Don't be afraid to take advantage of an "emergency nap" on the side of the road in your car. Every year, as many as 100,000 traffic fatalities are caused by sleepy people behind the wheel.
The Einstein Method
If you are concerned about sleeping too long, do what Albert Einstein regularly did: hold a pencil while you're drifting off, so when you fall asleep, the pencil dropping will wake you up. (We do not guarantee you will wake up with a 180 IQ.)
Missing sleep is worse at your age
For people ages 18 to 24, sleep deprivation impairs performance more significantly than in other age brackets.

A light coating of snow dusted roads Thursday morning around the D.C. metro area, prompting school closings and delays -- and while a warm-up is on the way, more snow is in the forecast.
Thursday's snow came from a weak area of low pressure that swept through from the Northwest, Storm Team4 reported.
Snow teams from D.C., Virginia and Maryland were deployed overnight.
With temperatures remaining below freezing Thursday, any snow that melted under the sun could refreeze, causing slick spots.
Federal agencies were open, but employees had the option to take unscheduled leave or unscheduled telework, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management said.
Virginia Railway Express operated on a full schedule Thursday, but the passenger rail service urged commuters to exercise caution as crews cleaned and de-iced platforms.
But that's not the last of the snow. Another area of low pressure is expected to move through our region Friday, bringing another round of snow starting around 3 p.m. in the west of our area. The snowfall should end by midnight.
Early indications are that 1-2 inches of light and powdery new snow will fall by late Friday night. Isolated higher amounts are expected near the Chesapeake Bay and west of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Roads will get slippery Friday night, so anyone going out should be careful. Temperatures will remain below freezing most of the time into the weekend, so any snow will stick to untreated surfaces and stay through the weekend.
A warm-up will finally begin early next week, with afternoon temperatures well above freezing, melting much of the snow. The temperatures should stay above average all of next week.

The Great Contract Snag of 2012 has been untangled, and now Tim Tebow, officially, is headed back east to play for the New York Jets.
The Jets have agreed to pay half a $5 million salary advance due Tebow, meaning that the biggest star in the National Football League (sorry, Peyton) heads where, perhaps, he naturally belongs: the one city big enough to handle Tebowmania.
So what does this all mean for Tebow, the Jets, and other teams around the NFL? Let's break it down:
The Good
From a career standpoint, Tebow could do far worse. Going somewhere with an undisputed starter, like Green Bay or New England, would guarantee his riding the bench for at least few years, if not longer. Go to a place like Jacksonville, with little national relevance and a dearth of stars, and the pressure to succeed and carry the team on his shoulders would be intense.
The New York Jets, though, have perhaps just the right level of talent and distraction to give Tebow the opportunity to dazzle without it being an immediate necessity.
For the Jets, Tebow's running ability gives them another weapon in building the run-heavy offense head coach Rex Ryan has always wanted. Tebow will be the backup, but could play several plays – or even series – each game in the "wildcat," an offensive package that plays directly to Tebow's strengths as an option quarterback. He would also be a useful weapon in short-yardage situations.
Off the field, there may not be a young NFL player better equipped to deal with the New York media than Tebow. He's been flawless in his handling of intense scrutiny this far in his career, showing he has an instinct for how to deal with media pressure.
What's more, there will be plenty of other stars and sports to share the spotlight in New York – Ryan won't tolerate not being the center of attention for too long, there's the Super Bowl champion (Giants) in the same stadium, and the Knicks, Yankees, and Rangers right down the road. In New York, Tebow will be just one circus among many.
Furthermore, the Jets could clearly use a little character and good cheer in their locker room, something Tebow provides in spades. And there's a chance his presence could light a fire under Sanchez, who had a disastrous season last year that culminated in a near mutiny from his teammates.
The Bad
Hey, remember Mark Sanchez?
Despite his implosion last season, the Jets showed a commitment to their troubled young quarterback by giving him a three-year, $40.5 million contract extension. But the Tebow trade has the potential to shake Sanchez's already fragile confidence. After last season, he's on thin ice with the New York fan base, as well as some of his teammates.
What's more, the Jets are currently overstocked at quarterback. Last week, they signed Drew Stanton from the Detroit Lions to fill the backup slot, and they already have Greg McElroy, who won a college national championship with Alabama, sitting in the third spot.
There is a chance that Sanchez could play well, Tebow will fulfill his wildcat duties beautifully, and Ryan and new offensive coordinator Tony Sparano will look pretty smart. But if that doesn't happen, the Jets will look like attention-hogging star chasers with nothing to show for it.
And that media circus? The minute Sanchez trips up, they'll call for his starting job. If Tebow stumbles, too, they'll be calling for Ryan's and Sparano's.
The Florida
Perhaps the biggest loser in all of this is Florida, the state Tebow calls home.
Down in Miami, Tebow marks the fifth time that the Dolphins have reportedly gone after a big catch and come up empty. The franchise has already lost out on Peyton Manning, head coach Jeff Fisher, quarterbacks Matt Flynn and Alex Smith, which begs the question: What's scaring people away from Miami?
Seven hours north in Jacksonville, there's good and bad news. Tebow reportedly choosing New York over his hometown Jags is somewhat of a slap in the face, and the failure of the new management to complete another big acquisition doesn't bode well for the coming season.
However, the fact that general manager Gene Smith, new head coach Mike Mularkey, and new owner Shahid Kahn came together and gave their all to bring Tebow home is a heartening sign because it means they understand what it could mean for the city of Jacksonville – an encouraging sign that Kahn means it when he claims he wants to keep the team in town.
Furthermore, it means they understand that the Jaguars need to be bold in their management decisions to regain relevance within the league. They've shown they have the willingness to go after big-draw players in the future.
And since Tebow went elsewhere, the Jaguars can do what they originally professed they would: focus on building a team around quarterback Blaine Gabbert and shore up the team's many weak spots. If they keep showing Tebow-level aggressiveness in the coming offseason, if just might work.

I'm new to acoustics and I want to know if there is a formula regarding of comparing
recorded dB(decibels) from microphone that is from negative values to zero, around (-47dB that is almost quite) to 0dB that is almost the highest level with default (normal) hearing dB-s like dB on the restaurants around 60 dB.
To be clear is there a formula that convert this range (-47dB -0dB) to hearing dB (positive dB-s).
Thank you!

Anxiety Disorders: Q & A with Dr. Paul Foxman
Why and how does anxiety develop?
Anxiety is related to the survival instinct. Normally, we react self-protectively to threat or danger with the "fight, flight or freeze response." This state of high mental alertness and physical arousal prepares us to "fight", "flee", or "freeze" from perceived danger. However, the fear reaction can occur when there is no present danger or threat. For example, children and adults can struggle with performance around work or school assignments. Sometimes, concerns around performance can cause an adult or child to avoid completing the assignment or taking on new assignments and projects. This performance anxiety can start to negatively impact the child's or adult's ability to complete work on time, and may even cause the adult or child to refuse to attend school or go to work. In other words, anxiety is the fear reaction to perception or anticipation of danger when no actual threat is present. Sensitive people—those who react strongly to external or internal experiences—have a higher risk of developing anxiety. In an effort to control anxiety, we may avoid certain situations, worry frequently, or develop obsessive or compulsive behaviors. These patterns are not productive and they usually interfere with daily life.
What is the difference between common experiences of anxiety and anxiety that interferes with daily life?
Anxiety can be a very common experience. Taking an exam, starting school or college, meeting with a boss or authority figure, or having a near accident can all evoke anxiety. Anxiety can even be helpful and motivating in preparing for a challenge or change. There are also some natural worries in childhood, adolescence, and adulthood such as: concerns about school/work performance, appearance, social acceptance, major life transitions, and death of parents.

Chefs with firstname.lastname@example.com
There had never been a study that looked specifically at F&B, so the Heirloom Foundation partnered with Kat Kinsman and her Chefs with Issues project. Heirloom had a PhD epidemiologist and statistician review the findings in the Chefs with Issues survey and for the first time could point to specific problems. They found higher instances of mental health issues, especially depression, anxiety, eating disorders and substance use. They found that the culture in kitchens made most people feel that they couldn't speak openly when they needed help. Those factors combined with long hours, an inability to take sick or personal leave, and minimal health benefits, were creating a hotbed for crisis. This website, and related Facebook community, provides a forum for connection to others who are struggling as well as resources that have been particularly helpful for those in the food and beverage industry.

Rocker Neil Young is bringing his benefit concert into the heart of the oilpatch on Sunday — but he has turned down a meeting with top industry executives while he's on their turf, according to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers.
In a statement released Sunday, CAPP said the entertainer and outspoken oilsands critic hasn't accepted an invitation to meet with oilsands producers before his concert later in the day.
The offer was extended last week when industry representatives launched a return salvo following the flurry of attention surrounding Young's four-city concert tour benefiting the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation, which is downstream from the oilsands.
Young has argued aboriginal treaty rights are been infringed upon by oilsands development, and gone as far as drawing comparisons between a Fort McMurray industrial site and the atomic bomb wreckage of Hiroshima, Japan.
Energy industry executives have countered Young's positions, with CAPP president Dave Collyer saying the rocker's "rhetoric is ill-informed, it's divisive, and I think it does a disservice to Canadians — including those First Nations he is ostensibly trying to help through his tour."
The back-and-forth volley that's followed Young's tour across the country is expected to come to a head in Calgary. The musician is planning a press conference early Sunday afternoon.
In its statement, CAPP said its representatives made contact with Young's PR team "but they have unfortunately not accepted oilsands producers' offer of a meeting."
Industry officials have also been shut out from Sunday's media event, according to CAPP.
"Oilsands producers said we'd be willing to sit down on Neil Young's stage with a neutral moderator and balanced representation, and we're disappointed these reasonable terms could not be met," said Collyer, in the statement.
"Regardless, our invitation to meet with Neil Young or (Athabasca Forth Chipewyan First Nation chief Allan Adam) at a future date remains open."
The Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation has filed a Federal Court lawsuit in hopes of overturning the approval of Shell's Jackpine oilsands mine expansion — a project that will double Shell's production in the oilsands but has drawn criticism over environmental impact and consultation issues in the approval process.

- Jamie said...
Sounds good. :)
Unfortunately, after entering the title and hitting return - I'm just seeing the message "Connect Card". I can see a '(F:) 3 WiFi Manager' drive, so it's definately plugged in.
Any idea what the problem might be? If it would help, you'd be very welcome to use Copilot (copilot.com) to take a look.

Thanks, Scott, but a donation is enough.
- June 2, 2010 at 12:18 PM

is it software specific? (as i upgraded mine to the software that has the web interface enabled.)
has it been tested with this? There is no debug out put for trouble shooting
half the times it just says Unlocked and other other times it gives the com error.
Both retries still have the simlock
- June 15, 2010 at 1:16 PM
- Zibri said...
It has been tested with the original 3UK firmware.
I don't know why a very few people can't make it work.
I have positive feedbacks even from (skilled) people which made it work under windows 7.
- June 15, 2010 at 1:18 PM
- Craig said...
Hi mate, just tried this on win7 and it comes up unlocked but still doesn't work with a different network sim.
Thanks for the program just wish I could get it actually unlock.
- July 7, 2010 at 7:56 AM
- Zibri said...
As I said MANY times, only a few people made it work on windows 7.
Try it on a laptop with windows XP.
- July 7, 2010 at 9:26 AM

Hi Z
Thanks so much for this unlock. Do you think you will consider upgrading it for the new huawei E585 modem? I just picked one up and the E5830 unlock unfortunately does not work on it. I thought it would because it looks like the same hardware.
Please feel free to get in touch if you would like some assistance, would be happy to ship over a device to you at a discounted price to help get an unlock.
- July 7, 2010 at 1:48 PM
- Zibri said...
I will receive the E585 tomorrow and start digging... I can't promise anything and I am still evaluating if make it donation based or a paid application (for a small fee). Stay tuned.
- July 7, 2010 at 3:47 PM
- Unknown said...
I am just about to order a new THREE E5850 pay as you go modem from PCWorld. I want to unlock and use with T-mobile SIM I already have fro use with an iPad. Is it worth it? Will the app work with the latest model?

No. It doesn't work on e585.

Thank you for your great work. You are a real hero.
Sorry to bother you with my issue.
I have a e5832 from Orange with a internet sim from other carrier in it.
I have windows xp.
I run your unlock.
I receive this message:
"com port error writefile function failed on np"
What to do do ?
Thank you very much for you help.
- July 17, 2010 at 4:42 AM
- Zibri said...
@dimitrie: that question has already been answered.
Kill any running program before running the unlocker.
It's better to reboot your PC before running the unlocker.
3 Wifi Manager MUST NOT BE RUNNING.

Hi Zibri, I'm having trouble making this work, can you help please?
I thought I had unlocked a while ago but have just got a Vodafone sim and it doesn't like it. So went back in to unlock again yesterday, paid my €7 as it is now, I don't mind paying if I can make it work.
But having no luck, today was getting message "Socket Error #10060 Connection timed out." This on an XP machine at office. Haven't done anything to change APN which I have seen referred to, is that my problem?
Any help gratefully received!
Thanks, Chris
- July 27, 2010 at 2:18 PM
- Zibri said...
Please READ the posts and COMMENTS!
Socket error means your pc can't reach the internet or is badly connected.
- July 27, 2010 at 3:12 PM
- Chris said...
Thanks Zibri, but I did read the posts and none refer to socket errors. But I think there used to be a lot more posts, maybe some have been removed now.
The laptop was connected to internet (I downloaded your program), I will try different USB sockets to see if the connection issue was to do with being in a docking station.
- July 28, 2010 at 6:41 AM
- Zibri said...
@Chris: no. the connection issue is a connection issue. In other words: your pc can't connect to the address my program uses to validate the code.
Don't use the e585 to connect. Don't put a simcard in the e5.
- July 28, 2010 at 7:05 AM
- Chris said...
Thanks Zibri. Did have more success out of the docking station, got the program to run and show Unlocked!, and now get green SIM signal instead of red, so looks promising. But can't get a solid blue internet signal yet.
Shouldn't be a reception issue but will try again from a different location this evening.
- July 28, 2010 at 9:33 AM
- Zibri said...
Ok so it's unlocked.
Now you need to setup the PROFILE, APN, USER and PASS... etc etc

Ah! I have no idea what to do there, but will keep digging away.
- July 29, 2010 at 1:31 AM
- Zibri said...
1) you have serious connection problems.
2) you didn't install drivers correctly or you have "3 wifi manager running"
3) download link are working.
- July 29, 2010 at 3:41 AM
- Chris said...
Good news Zibri, I can stop bugging you now! After much trawling of internet and plenty of trial and error, I have now have all up and running.
Thanks for your help.
- July 29, 2010 at 5:51 AM
- Zibri said...
Please Chris, share here what were your errors and how you solved them.
- July 29, 2010 at 5:57 AM
- Chris said...
Happy to share. I don't know about "errors", but what are straightforward things to seasoned IT warriors are blank walls to us ordinary folk.
Getting the sim unlocked was probably made more difficult by attempting via my work laptop, with all its firewalls, docking stations, etc. And when I tried again from my home laptop I discovered from the posts above that the unlock code via the paypal reference number was bound to the original machine, i.e. my work laptop again! But after much trial and error I did succeed in the unlock.
But it turned out that was not the end of the story, I also needed to create a new profile. This may be an obvious thing to some but not to me, and it was only by much trawling around the interent that I gleaned this from the odd reference here and there that this was something I needed to do.
But how? Again no doubt easy for many, but "create a new profile" without explanation was a mystery to me. By scouring many threads and forums, I eventually discovered that you plug in your E5830, switch it on and start up 3 Wifi manager. Then you go to Tools, Options, Profile Management, and click New.
Here you click Static, give a new profile name (no one said but I think any name would do, I used "Vodafone" as I have a Vodafone non-expiry sim bought off Ebay).
In APN I entered "pp.internet" (for a PAYG Vodafone sim, I guess other ones might be different). User was "admin" and password was "admin". Click Save, then click Default, and it was done! All discovered by much Googling and reading through threads on mnay different forums.
Sorry this was so long but hopefully helps other non-tech people like me.
- July 29, 2010 at 7:20 AM
- Chris said...
By the way, for me even posting on here was a trial. There didn't seem to be many ways to do it, in the end I had to open a gmail account just so I could post as a Google account.
- July 29, 2010 at 7:21 AM
- Hadrian's Head, vox populi vox dei said...
i have v3 of the unlock software, paid the donation, connected up the device, entered paypal id code gone through unlock process, claims to have unlocked.
However when i try, for example my o2 sim card it gives an error message about detecting sim. When i check the unlock status with dc lock, with the three (original) sim in, it says unlocked, with any other sim or no sim, it says locked.
Any ideas?
- July 29, 2010 at 5:16 PM
- Zibri said...
Something went wrong. This program is unstable on some PC and I don't know why. It works on ANY PC I tested so far. Try again and again (withou a sim in it or with the wrong sim in it) and it should work. if not EMAIL ME.

I have installed on my virtualized PC (VMWare Fusion) and pay the donation, but I have always the message : "Connect Card"... but my Mifi is connected...
Do you have an idea ?
I have tried to make it on another PC laptop but when I enter the donation code... the program say to me that this is the wrong code...
Please... help me sir ;)
- July 31, 2010 at 2:19 PM
- Zibri said...
1) virtual machines can sometimes work but are not officuially supported.
2) a code is valid only on ONE pc.
If you want to run the program on another pc, you vae to get another code (donating again).
HINT: I suggest you to configure the serial ports of the virtual machine and the USB as passtrhu.
- July 31, 2010 at 6:19 PM
- Unknown said...
... It is very tedious because you say that the program works on virtual machine (that's why I accept to do the donation...).
So I need to do it with a PC... but I would like to do not another donation
- August 1, 2010 at 7:21 AM
- Zibri said...
Agence: it WORKS in virtual machines but as they are virtual you need to be skilled to use them.
Since many people aren't they say it doesn't work.
So ask them, if you need help.
That's why I say that virtual machines are NOT supported (by me) because I am not here for a computer course.
- August 1, 2010 at 7:57 AM
- Unknown said...
Lol ok I'm using virtual machines and know how to use them :p (the only problem is the usb which is not 100% perfect).
- August 1, 2010 at 8:11 AM
- Zibri said...
@ Agence: I didn't say it was YOUR fault... but.. you know, USB is what connects these things... if USB isn't working perfectly neither my program neither any other will work.
- August 1, 2010 at 8:18 AM
- Unknown said...
Off course sir ;) I know that you make good job that's why I want to use your program.
I will send you an email to have the unlimited unlock code (so I could make the unlock with a pc)
- August 1, 2010 at 8:23 AM
- Zibri said...
The unlimited version is for people planning to do more than 10 unlocks.

had real problems on windows 7 until I updated the mifi drivers via device manager - after that, the unlock worked in about a minute - thanks

- Philip Couzens said...
All seemed fine. I then did a firmware upgrade and it now seems to be locked again to my Three account in the UK. Do I have to unlock it again? I am now on a new computer - now in Malaysia with no access to the old one. Do I need a new Paypal ID number? I don't really want to pay again.
- September 8, 2010 at 7:28 AM
- Zibri said...
@Philip: NO. Once unlocked, the card stays unlocked.. no matter what.
Just create a new profile if needed.

Once unlocked the e5830 and the e585 can be used with any network compatible with the card.

Hi....Is it better to unlock E5830 & then upgade the firmware OR upgrade the firmware & then go for an unlock....
- November 14, 2010 at 7:11 AM
- gr8 said...
I think it works for me.
My T-Mobile E583C-1 device now recognised O2 UK sim in it. Sim state says Valid.
But since I do not know O2 connection parameters (it was a friends and i was testing it to see whether the unlock worked) i could not test it completely.
But since sim stated as Valid, I take it as it works.
Thanks for making it so easy for no-vice like me.

@simon: you probably didn't read the instructions. Please do (they are inside the program zip archive).
The E5 is "already unlocked" for the original sim card it is locked to. That's why my program believed it was unlocked.

Trash it. The E5830 can't be flashed with wrong firmware, but maybe yours was an e585 and then if you flashed an e5830 firmware the card is now dead.

This side dish is vitamin rich and full of flavor.
Preparation Time: 25 mins
Cooking Time: 5 mins
Keeping types of greens separate, steam them one at a time (each type of green will take a different length of time to steam until tender).
Sprinkle ginger and garlic over the top of greens, then evenly drizzle a small amount of oil on top.
Steam until greens are just tender, watching carefully, as they may take as little as 30 seconds. Meanwhile, heat a small amount of oil in a small stick-free pan until hot. Add water chestnuts and sauté for 30 seconds. With a slotted spoon, immediately transfer to a plate covered with 2 sheets of paper towel.
As each green becomes tender, immediately transfer to a serving plate, placing each next to each other. Scatter sautéed water chestnuts on top. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
* Dark greens, chosen from the following: bok choy (Chinese cabbage or Chinese chard), choy sum (Chinese flowering cabbage), Chinese spinach (amaranth leaves), Swiss chard leaves, stems removed, or spinach leaves, stems removed.
** If needed in cooking use a bit more sesame oil (allow for extra calories and fat).
Look for greens that are crisp, unblemished and a dark color. Leafy greens are highly perishable and should be used within a few days of purchase. Wrap them, unwashed, in damp paper towels and refrigerate in a plastic bag with a few air holes so the greens can breathe.
Rinse them carefully before cooking. Cook in non-aluminum pans.
A pound of fresh greens will result in 1½ to 2 cups of cooked greens.

In another case of finding something interesting whilst researching something else, I found a type of Church Register Index that I have not seen before in any other parish. So today's blog is about that novel index I found. See the Church Register in the picture (see below).
Dateline Koprzywnica parish, 1810 – In what was after the 3rd partition was Austrian-Hungarian territory (Austrian-Poland in green), has now been annexed by Napoleon in 1809 into the Duchy of Warsaw and in another five years will be Congress Poland (Vistulaland, Russian-Poland). But in 1810 we are speaking of Koprzywnica in the powiat of Staszow and the Departement of Radom. No, that is not wojewodztwo — it is the French, Departement that is the highest level of administration in the Duchy of Warsaw. The map shows that a huge swath of green from the Austrian-Poland partition (zabior) was annexed into the Duchy in 1809. Stanczyk's own ancestors once again switched Empires from Austria to France. So too did the citizens of Koprzywnica (and a great many cities, towns, and villages). Poof, now the records go from Latin, in the perfunctory Latin Box (Table) Format to the lingua franca of Polish paragraph with French-style two witnesses.
So Koprzywnica, like Stanczyk's own ancestral Villages (Biechów and Pacanów) was briefly Austrian, then French (very briefly), then Russian until 1917-1918 whence it became just Poland again. We can find Koprzywnica in the gazetteer, Skorowidz Miejscowoscy Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej as being in the powiat Sandomierz, wojewowdztwo Kielce (circa 1920's/1930's).
Indexes are so very helpful. It is always a let down when a parish book or a year within the book lacks any kind of index. That means I will have to look at each and every record to see if any are related to me / my research. Early Latin paragraph form church records often do not have any index — they barely denote the year change. So that means you have to read each and every badly handwritten paragraph of Latin — very rare to find a priest with good Latin handwriting. That is why the Latin Box Format was more welcome. At least I could find the pieces of info and the handwriting was less of an issue. But the Latin Box format did not have indexes either.
So it was helpful when Napoleon implemented the Codex Napoleon in the Duchy of Warsaw. So by 1810 you see the records written in Polish (lingua franca) in a paragraph form that is specified by the Codex Napoleon. And these new records have indexes!
OK, the indexes initially are by letter: A, B, C, …, Z. So you have just under 26 pages of indexes. It is an improvement. Quickly the church realizes it can save paper by running the index all together with all letters on a single (or a few) page(s) in order alphabetically. Very efficient to scan these indexes for your families. And it was also easy to spot when a priest added a late addition to the index at the back after all other names (even though it was evidently in the wrong spot lexicographically speaking).
OK 1868-1918, we find Russian / Cyrillic indexes. In addition to priests not knowing Russian well and ordering names phonetically before later on, we find the index in Cyrillic proper lexical order you will have to scan carefully. Cyrillic kind of forces that to those of us weaned on a Latin alphabet. But you sometimes find the Russian indexes sorted in Cyrillic lexical order … by the first name ??? That is not very useful. Sometimes the index is in chronological order (akt # / record # order) making it barely more useful then scanning every record.
But when we find a well formed index (or a not so good index) it is always for one event: Birth/Christening, Marriage / Marriage Banns, Death Records. One index for Births, one for Marriages and one for Deaths … assuming none are missing, 3 indexes. That is what makes the following index so very interesting …
The Index (Skorowidz)
This was supposed to be a Marriage Index !! But it was five scanned pages! This would have to be an extraordinarily large city to have that many marriages! What are all of those columns ?? That is what I asked myself.
Let's see what those columns are: Record # (Akt #), Village Name, Person Name(s), Births (Urodzin), Deaths (Zeyscie), Banns (Zapowiedz), and finally Marriages(Malzenstwa) Kart # (you can safely ignore). This index is an all event index. Births-Deaths-Banns-Marriages all interleaved. In fact, when I look at each event (B/M/D) I see the same 99 event-record pages and the same five index pages. It appears that all events are in the same register! This is rather unique — as I said previously I have not seen this before in other parish registers I have seen.
So in this "combo style" index (which needs a proper name) you cannot have a single name for marriage record, so marriage records have two names (as usual), but this requires two lines in this style of index — since we are multi-columnar. We also see that Banns are indicated 'I' or 'II' — the third bann being the actual marriage itself. The Roman numeral written above the word Zapowiedz. So since the index is in Akt# order, it is a chronological order too. It could be interesting from a demographic perspective (what time of year do most marriages occur or do a higher concentration of deaths occur in winter months). If this style index had occurred during an epidemic year, then we could have seen all of the deaths occurring in a great streak without interruption by other events. 1810 in Koprzywnica was not such an epidemic year.
There is one more fascinating aspect to this index. In the Napoleonic era (1807 thru 1829) we find that Catholic priest acts as the civil administrator and that Jewish/Evangelic/Orthodox vital records are written in the Catholic register. How is this noted in the index — which again I have not seen elsewhere? Look at the scanned register image for this blog. Pay attention to Records #'s:
85, 86, and 91.
It so happens that each of these records is a Marriage Banns event type. But, notice that each begins 'Zyda'. Żyd = Jew, hence Żyda is plural for Jews. Żydów = Jewish. This indicates that this is a Jewish civil record being recorded. Now I know that Jewish vital records are recorded in the Napoleonic era Catholic registers. But it is unusual that it is indicated in the index (as opposed to being in the record itself).
So this was a very fascinating find after all. I was actually looking for a particular Leszczyński but I found a novel index and indeed a novel parish register overall.

I am my best work... a series of road maps, reports, recipes,doodles, and prayers from the front lines.
~Audre Lorde, poet
I made this for lunch recently and really hadn't planned on posting this recipe up on the blog, but sometimes life doesn't always let you have your way. What actually happened was, I had taken some shots of this dish using my iPhone and uploaded a picture onto Instagram just to share what I was eating with the bunch of people there (as one does). The number of inquiries I subsequently received about the recipe got to the point that I decided that well, maybe it was just better to record it on the blog so that everyone who wanted it could easily refer to it here. So here we are, a coincidental blog post!
I must say, I am fascinated by Chermoula sauce, which is typically used as a marinade for fish in Morocco and the North African region, but can also be used as a stuffing or sauce. Its uses are endless, apart from being a marinade, you can also serve it over roasted vegetables like squash, potatoes, chickpeas and like in here, I chose to spoon it over roasted eggplant and beetroot.
There are a number of variations of Chermoula. Some use only cilantro while others include parsley, while I used both (what the hell, just live a little!). Some use preserved lemon, while others prefer just the fresh juice; then you can use powdered ginger, but I used fresh; and use smoked paprika as opposed to regular paprika. Just feel free to adapt it to your mood and what you have available.
The best thing about Chermoula is that it requires you to do nothing more than put all the ingredients in a mini-food processor and blend them until you reach the desired consistency. Ideally, this should be still a little rough, not fully pureed. It will taste even better if you make it an hour or so in advance to let the flavors develop. The traditional way to blend Chermoula is in a mortar and pestle, apparently the result is incomparably better than anything made in an electrical blending gadget. But I wouldn't know because I was too lazy to work my arm muscles out the day I made this.
The sauce-smothered vegetables can be served over fluffy cous cous, but I chose to personalize the dish by serving it over shredded iceberg lettuce... and yes, it did make me feel better doing this, thanks for wondering. I added sliced oranges, pumpkin seeds and extra cilantro as garnishes. Just a quickie meal, but satisfaction's guaranteed! :)
Have a fab weekend all!
Roasted Eggplant and Beetroot with Chermoula Sauce
(Vegetarian, Vegan, and Gluten-Free)
Yields about 3/4 cup
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: none!
Chermoula Sauce
1 bunch of cilantro, leaves and tender stems only, well washed
1 handful flat-leaf parsley leaves
4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon cumin power
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
big pinch of saffron
1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds
3 tablespoons olive oil
juice of 1 lemon or 1/2 of a preserved lemon, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
Vegetable and garnishes
1 medium beetroot, peeled
2 medium sized eggplants
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
1 orange, peeled and sliced thinly or chunkily
a fistful of cilantro leaves and stem, chopped
2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds, lightly toasted
1. Combine all ingredients in a mini-food processor, spice grinder, or mortar and pestle. Process until a thick, moderately rough sauce is formed. Set aside, covered, for one hour before use.
2. In the meantime, preheat oven to 350F/180C and prepare the vegetables and garnishes. Cut eggplants and beetroot into 1/2 inch thick slices and brush both sides with olive oil. Place on a lined baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until softened but not dried. remove from oven and set aside.
3. Warm up a skillet over medium heat and carefully toast the roasted vegetables until crisp on the cut sides, about one minute each side. Leave to cool before plating.
4. Stir the Chermoula sauce and spoon or drizzle on top of each vegetable slice. Garnish with orange, cilantro and pumpkin seeds. Serve immediately.

This is so there are no words to describe how I am feeling.This is just WRONG!!! I had extra of this figure that I let go for $20.00 each which included the shipping and insurance. In this hobby people should help each other, not take advantage of them. Man do I feel sick.
Mine is not attached, in that you could slip a piece of paper in there if you wanted, but ther'es no flat edge for it to attach to the card really. It's only attached where the flat edge of the bubble on the sides runs down a little ways to the bottom, but the center area of the bottom is open.

Fragdown signed it's second CSX team
After weeks of scouting and discussions, Fragdown is proud to announce the signing of Christian "Zenhger" Inglés, Vincent "Vin" Bear, Charlie "Rossi" Clark and Anthony "Anthrax" Peters. The new players will team up with Rick "Spartan" William, who have signed his 90 days contract with the club before the beggining of CSX Pro League Season 2 as captain of Fragdown Academy.
We are extremely happy to have gathered a team who desires, as we do, to compete and win at the highest levels possible. This is a team of talented individuals that have shown great progress as players and teammates of their respective former teams over the past few months.
"I expect FD to train us into a top 3 team for now, in the long run I want FD to be our only competition even tho Effect will 90% not make that possible. My objectives for FDA (Fragdown Academy) are to help FD work on there retakes, holds and any other mistakes they appear to have. And finally help FDA become a very good team that can beat anyone. We have the potential to and will succeed in doing so during future events" said Vincent "Vin" Bear.
The team's first outing as part of the new team will be this week-end already from March 24th-31st as part of the 360Global Open Qualifiers. Following that they will compete in this Major and CSX Pro League Season 3 and other events organized by CSXbox.

I wish my memory was better because I have no way to back this up. Back in the TPM release days, there was an interview with Lucas (or it was Williams, dammit, I don't know) about Duel of the Fates and the Phantom Menace music in general, and there was mention of some piece of music Williams wrote that got omitted, with Lucas commenting that it was "too dark, but beautiful" and that he wanted to stash it away from Ep3. I've always wondered about that comment years ago. Maybe DoctorPadawan remembers?I'm hoping we'll hear something that shares a lot in common with DotF but an undertone more along the lines of the ROTJ Final Duel chorus.

Johann Sebastian BachGerman Baroque period composer & musician. Born 21 March 1685. Died 28 July 1750
Johann Sebastian Bach Biography (BBC)
Born in the German town of Eisenach, J. S. Bach was a chorister then violinist before taking his first organist post at Arnstadt while still a teenager. It was in Weimar, as court organist from 1708, that Bach began to produce monthly cantatas, and wrote many of his great organ works, as well as organ transcriptions of concertos by Vivaldi.
In 1717 Prince Leopold offered him the position of Kapellmeister at Cöthen, where he wrote the Brandenburg Concertos, the four Orchestral Suites and the violin concertos, and married his second wife Anna Magdalena, who bore 13 children. Bach's fearsome duties in his final job, as Kantor of the Thomasschule in Leipzig from 1723 until his death, involved teaching Latin and Music, choir-training, and writing and directing music for the services.
Nevertheless he managed also to write the Mass in B minor, the six choral Motets, The Art of Fugue, The Musical Offering and Goldberg Variations during this time. His inventive contrapuntalism became unfashionable soon after his death until the early 19th century, since when his reputation has remained unquestioned.

Johann Sebastian Bach Biography (Wikipedia)
Johann Sebastian Bach (31 March [O.S. 21 March] 1685 – 28 July 1750) was a German composer and musician of the Baroque period. He is known for instrumental compositions such as the Brandenburg Concertos and the Goldberg Variations, and for vocal music such as the St Matthew Passion and the Mass in B minor. Since the 19th-century Bach Revival he has been generally regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time.
The Bach family already counted several composers when Johann Sebastian was born as the last child of a city musician in Eisenach. After being orphaned at age 10, he lived for five years with his eldest brother Johann Christoph, after which he continued his musical formation in Lüneburg. From 1703 he was back in Thuringia, working as a musician for Protestant churches in Arnstadt and Mühlhausen and, for longer stretches of time, at courts in Weimar, where he expanded his organ repertory, and Köthen, where he was mostly engaged with chamber music. From 1723 he was employed as Thomaskantor (cantor at St. Thomas) in Leipzig. He composed music for the principal Lutheran churches of the city, and for its university's student ensemble Collegium Musicum. From 1726 he published some of his keyboard and organ music. In Leipzig, as had happened during some of his earlier positions, he had difficult relations with his employer, a situation that was little remedied when he was granted the title of court composer by his sovereign, Augustus, Elector of Saxony and King of Poland, in 1736. In the last decades of his life he reworked and extended many of his earlier compositions. He died of complications after eye surgery in 1750 at the age of 65.

Looking to start your own business? Want to know exactly what it is that you are in store for? You are not alone; no one likes to lie down and accept things that they do not know, or understand.
Thus, coming as close to knowing the future as you can is an important part of being a business owner. After all; the more you know about what to expect, the better the chances are that you will be able to handle anything that is thrown at you with complete and utter ease. Following, you will find some of the best tips a new business owner could ever hope for, tips that will allow you to better prepare for your future as a business owner, because it will be a bright one.
Lesson Number One: How to Deal
It may sound like the most basic tip, but learning how to deal is important. No one will ever willingly work for a hothead. And if you have a tendency to lose your cool under pressure, you will soon find that meetings will seldom go your way, that accidents can and will happen, and that employees, when treated poorly, will quit.
So learn to handle yourself just as well as you hope to handle your business. Research shows that a more level headed boss is the key to success in a business, and tends to rake in more revenue, consumers, and all the other goodies that make a business tick.
Lesson Number Two: Learning How to Work
Just because you are the boss of your business, does not mean you can sit back, kick up your legs and call it a day for the rest of your business's life span. Because if you do do this, then your business's life span will not be very long at all.
Hiring assistants can help, but you should never hand your company over until you are good and ready to retire in full. Until then, you are still the boss, and as such, you act as captain of your ship; all the big decisions come down to you. If you find that things that are happening within your company surprise you, then it means you do not have your hands far enough inside your company, and you need to crack down and start getting more serious.
Lesson Number Three: Keeping it All Together
Business is going to be stressful. This is something that you should accept, and come to handle as best as anyone can. No matter what happens, after employees' safety, your business comes first. Every decision you make from this point onward will possibly affect your company. Even your personal life will have a direct impact on the success or failure of your company as a whole.
Think of it this way; if you saw your boss crawling around taverns all weekend, how would you feel come Monday morning? Your employees look to you for stability. As such, you need to exemplify the ultimate stability. Every time you are in public, you are representing your company.
As a new business owner, your younger days may very well be your most important. The things that you do now, at the start of your company, could come to haunt you one day in the near future if you are not careful. So as the captain of this ship, you need to display all the professionalism, strong will, level headedness and other traits that one would expect from their employer, no matter where you happen to be.
