Hot sale palm oil distributor
Equipments which directly related to the palm fruit oil process (from oil palm processing machine oil palm processing machine oil palm processing machine fresh fruit to
final products)are divided into six systems as follows:
Press Process
1.Fruit Reception Station
1.1 Use truck to transport the ripe and fresh palm fruits from fruit ranch, weigh up
them by platform scale and record, and then pour them into the discharging table.
1.2 Start control valve to open the discharging table, then fruit drop in the fruit
basket car freely.
1.3 Drag the fruit basket car which loaded with fresh palm fruits to the downward
of the bridge crane by power cable tray and cable tray, then use bridge crane to
sling the fruit basket car to the track lead to sterilizer sterilizing tank.
2. Sterilizer Station
2.1 After drag the fruit basket car into the sterilizer sterilizing tank, close the sterilizer
sterilizing tank and open the vent valve below it. Then inlet saturated vapor, close the
vent valve after the cold air in the tank was excluded generally, and enter into the
period of steaming and sterilizing.
2.2 Close the inlet valve after the sterilizing process. Drain out the water and vapor in
tank, then you can open the door of the sterilizer sterilizing tank.
2.3 Drag the cooked fruit basket car to the downward of the beige crane.
3.Threshing Station
3.1 Pour the sterilized fruit in the fruit basket car into the unloading equipment.
3.2 Feed the fruit regularly into the fruit-separating machine to separate.
3.3 After twisting and beating in the fruit-separating machine, the fruits will fall off
4. Pressing Station
4.1 Palm fruit was transported to crasher by elevator.
4.2 Fruit was heated in crasher.
4.3 After sterilizing, the broken palm fruit flow into the palm oil press machine to
pressing oil and water mixture outflow from pressing chamber shell hole, in the same
time, the fiber cake and core was discharged from bonehead clearance and then drop in the packing anger of broken cake.
5. Fiber, Cake, Shell and Kernel Separation Station
5.1 Fiber cake was dropped into packing auger, use interrupted blade to break up the
palm cake, evaporate the palm cake constantly during the transportation, and the enter
into the fiber and core separation machine. Use induced draft system which compose
of draught fan and wind net to transport fiber to boiler room to burn. Palm core of
large proportion drops into the bucket elevator from the other side of the fiber and
core separating machine and then to transport to the core charging bucket to dry.
5.2 Open the discharging hole which is at the bottom of the core chafing bucket, then
palm core drop into husking machine to husk.
5.3 Use shell kernel separator to separate the shell and kernel mixture after husking.
5.4 Kernel are charged into kernel holding tank and shell are transported to boiler room
to burn.
6.Clarification Station
6.1 Use vibrated sifting filter to remove residues like fiber in the crude palm oil, then
the oil enter into the passivating tank.
6.2 There are indirect and direct steam in the passivating tank. After passivation, palm
oil and water mixture are banished to the high-order position tank and then flow into
the clarification tank.
6.3 Clarified oil flow into the oil tank, use disc separator to remove water in oil and
then use plate heat exchanger to eliminate the residual water completely.
6.4 After vacuum drying, the oil flow into net oil tank and then feed into the
final-product oil tank directly.
Refinery Process
Pumping crude oil into hydrate tank (oil refining tank), on one hand, quickly stirring,
on the other hand, heating by steam or heat-transfer oil (in coil pipe),
rise oil temperature.
This is the most important section of hydrate degumming, manage the adding water
(there is a little acid in the water) amount, temperature and add water speed,
usually water adding amount is about 3 times of phospholipid content,
that is 3-10% oil weight, water temperature needs to be higher than oil temperature.
This part adopt alkali refining method, that is use alkalis like (NaOH) to neutral the
free fatty acid in oil, during this process it will produce soapstock, mthen separated from the oil by setting several hours. NAOH solution, not only neutral free fatty acid, also can
act with other matters like protein, mucus, phospholipid, pigment. After settling, release
the soapstock from the tank bottom. Adding hot water to rinse, remove off the leftover lye, soap and some unhydrated phospholipid in the oil. Finally pumping out soapstock from
the tank bottom.
In normal situation , there is pigment in the crude oil , we need to using the active clay
to absorb the pigment away, after 20 mins, we use the vibrating filter to filter the waste
clay away. If you want to get light color oil, you need to add more active clay.
That is mean, the customer can accord to his requirement to control the oil color. This process is carried out under the vacuum condition.
5.Deodorization and Dehydration:
Usually ,there are some odors in the crude oil , it affects the quality of the edible oil.
About our refining process , we usually use the direct steam to take odors away in the
vacuum condition. General speaking there is about 0.5% water in the alkali refined oil, in the deodorization pot, thetemperature is very high, it also can finish the
dehydration section.
6. Filtering:
This process can remove off the small amount of unsettle gum soluble impurities in the
degummed oil, after oil dehydrate cooling (60 °C), filtering again, to ensure the product
oil quality. Then pumping the final oil into the oil tank.
Palm Oil Press Machine features as follows:
1) Compact and strong structure, and easy operation.
2) The automatic control system which can adjust barrel pressure.
3) High oil pressing efficiency, and residual oil in cake is less than 8%.
4) Low crushing efficiency for palm nut.

As Record Numbers of Americans Receive Food Stamps, Montana Follows the Trend [AUDIO]
In a story published Monday in the Weekly Standard, the number of Americans receiving the SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) grew to almost 47 million at the end of 2012.
Jon Ebelt, Public Affairs Director for the Montana Department of Health and Human Services, the agency that administers the SNAP program in the state, said the number of Montanans receiving assistance now stands at 123,000. In Missoula county, that number stands at about 15,000.
In 2009, Ebelt said 87,000 people were receiving SNAP benefits, and the number has grown steadily through the recent recession through 2012. He said the most Montanans were receiving benefits from December of 2011 through February of 2012, when about 127,000 took advantage of the program.
Ebelt invited anyone interested in receiving SNAP benefits to visit the State of Montana website.

by Werner Cornelius, DG3DBI
- Abstract: Two years ago fastening of interlinks and user entries called into being the project FALCon (Fast Amateur Link Controller). Final aim of this project is to develop hard- and software conceptions answering new and wider requirements (higher baud rates for example). The project was initiated by DG3DBI aiming at the development of new and powerful hardware for digipeaters and terminal node controllers. Exchanging ideas with Thomas, DLlEBQ, sysop of the German digipeater DBOME was followed by Thomas offer to test newly developed hardware at DBOME. Because of lack of time the software development was given to Walter, DG9EP, an experienced programmer, who set up a wholly new software for use at digipeaters - DigiWare. Following, development and fundamental characteristics of the hardware - FALCon - are described.

- The German (Central European) Packet Radio Network: An Overview
by Wolf-Henning Rech, N1EOW/DF91C, and Johannes Kneip, DG3RBU
- Abstract: Packet radio operation in Europe made its beqinnings in larger scale in the mid-80s. First access was made in the two-meter-band, but soon the sinqle available channel (144,675 MHz) used to be overcrowded in densely populated areas. Because there is significantly less space for amateur radio frequencies in Europe our packet radio network was successfully estabilshed in the 70cm and 23cm band during the last 8 years. Tab.1 summarizes an overview of German frequency allocation for amateur radio and its packet radio usage between 50 and 2000 MHz; requlations in other European countries is similar but more restricted at most.

It is presented here to help familiarize others with ROSE X.2 5 Packet Network features and operations.
- Sophisticated Mail User Interface Systems
by Keith Sproul, WU2Z, and Mark Sproul, KB2ICI
- Abstract:
Most of us use many different electronic mail systems such as the Internet, Usenet,
CompuserveTM, America-OnlineTM, GenielM, ProdigyTM, and of course Amateur Radio
Packet Mail. Most of these E-Mail systems have had some sort of sophisticated user
interface developed for them. For Usenet, there are many different News Reader
programs. Compuserve has CIS Navigator and CIS Information Manager. Many of us
also use some sort of Local Area Network-based E-Mail systems at our work. LAN-
based E-Mail systems such as Microsoft MailTM are extremely sophisticated, especially
those that run on windowing environments such as the MacintoshTM and Microsoft
- With very few exceptions we all get paper mail delivered to our homes. We don't have to go to the post office to pick it up each day. The current packet mail systems require that we go to the post office (BBS) each day and ask for our mail. We also must ask for a list of public messages and explicitly specify which ones we want to see. Then we wait for 1200 baud data to come across the busy air waves.
- A sophisticated user interface that would take care of retrieving a user's messages and specified bulletin topics would be a significant improvement. Such a system should deliver the mail that a user wants to his desktop, without the user having to go and get it manually. Such a system may also be expanded to then forward the mail to a user via another mail system so that the individual uses only one program at his computer. The authors have developed a Packet Mail reader system that implements many of the sophisticated features seen in other mail systems. This same program can also gateway mail between Packet Mail and Microsoft Mail for the Macintosh.

So finally it is here again - the Giveaway Day!
I did not want to add this at first ... but here it goes:
If you just tell me "the buttons are nice" or "I wanna win them" it will not count for the giveaway!
I think it is only fair to those people that actually read the post and entered! If it makes you feel any better of course you can change your mind if you actually win. I just would like you to think just for a minute about what buttons you would really love to have ... and maybe I get some new ideas out of this, too! ;-)
Oh, and if by any chance you are German ... check out my German blog Cutelicious ... :-)

The former head of Webcaster Pixelon, which managed to raise $28.5 million while he was on Virginia's Most Wanted list, says he never told his business partners his real name.
Michael Fenne told The Post in a phone interview from the county jail in Wise, Va., that he refused to answer questions about his past or even divulge his Social Security number as he worked around the clock to build .com wealth.
Board members at Pixelon turned a blind eye as he used his technical skills to pump the company's valuation into the tens of millions, he said.
Even after firing him after he blew $9 million on a lavish Las Vegas launch party, his colleagues were unaware he was wanted by police in Virginia and Tennessee.
Only last Friday did colleagues who had worked alongside him for three years learn he was a convicted felon. He consistently cited "privacy concerns" when asked why he refused to go on the payroll at the technology company.
Current Pixelon CEO Paul Ward told The Post that Fenne had provided a Social Security number on company forms, but no one had thought to check it.
"Who checks the details of the CEO? It was his company! He signed his D&Os," he said, referring to directors' and officers' liability-insurance forms.
In the late 1980s, Fenne, 39, ran an investment scam selling securities to seniors at his father's church. He was convicted of "obtaining money by false pretenses" and embezzlement, to the tune of $1.5 million. The judge called him a "golden-tongued salesman."
He changed his name from David Stanley when he vanished from a work-release program in 1996, leaving without his wife, authorities say.
He eventually landed in San Juan Capistrano, where he lived in his car with a new wife – who he'd recently met in Boulder, Colo., during his cross-country car trip – while doing freelance computer work. He designed some video-streaming software, which caught the attention of well-to-do customers and local businessmen. And he formed Futurelink, which he renamed Pixelon in December 1998.
The angel investors who put in $2.5 million included CEO Ward, who was then vice chairman. Fenne was chairman and CEO.
Chargers Screens Iphone Round up Cases Accessory Xs More 23 And "I just told them, 'Don't violate my privacy, and I'll go on working for no pay,'" Fenne said.
His ownership/sweat equity stake amounted to 3 million shares, or 70 percent of the company. By the time Advanced Equities of Chicago drummed up $28.5 million in series A financing, Fenne was a star in San Juan Capistrano.
The launch party in October 1999 – a concert at the MGM Grand featuring The Who, Kiss and many others – cost "about $9 million." The Webcast was plagued with connection problems, which Fenne blames on their partner, iBeam.
Fenne was fired a week later and given a $250,000 down payment on his severance. Pixelon bought back two million of his shares at 33 cents each.
"They were worth $1.75 each, but I didn't want to make a taxable gain as I was unable to pay tax. I had no W2," he said. His severance continues at $15,000 a month for two years.
"Michael did a good job for two years, running the company on very little money, but when the millions came rolling in, he couldn't handle it," Ward said.
"We had people selling content all over the place. I had to fire 70 of the 130 people. They'd duck down halls when they saw me coming."
Ward said Pixelon now licenses its software. Investors have come up with another $30 million in a new round of financing.
Fenne now has a new satellite Internet company, Lazaron Ventures, which he runs from his cell.

Joe Flacco got the Corvette, but Jacoby Jones gets the cover.
Sports Illustrated opted to place the man who could have been the game's MVP on the front page of the Super Bowl XLVII issue. Jones generated a Super Bowl-record 290 yards, with a 56-yard touchdown catch late in the first half and a 108-yard kickoff return to start the second half.
It made the New Orleans native one of the biggest stars of the biggest game, and it surely has Texans fans wondering what could have been if Jones hadn't been cut. Especially since Ravens coach John Harbaugh declared at his Monday press conference that the Ravens wouldn't have won the Super Bowl without Jones on the team.
So now he's on the cover, and that's something that will last a lot longer than the sports car into which Flacco will be trying to cram his six-foot, six-inch frame.

Here's a photo of a wonderful, inexpensive cheese and tomato dream sandwich. Makes your mouth water doesn't it?
By lunchtime today, I was "starving"! As I sat down to enjoy my lunch, I read this article by Mark Bittman in the New York Times, which changed my perspective. The House budget bill (H.R.1) is proposing huge cuts in the Women, Infants and Children program (WIC), Food Stamps, and International Funding for Food and Health Aid (Check out the World Food Program's call to action at Take Action.) Hungry people don't have much of a voice in our political system. Let's raise our voice for them.
I encourage you to write to your representatives and oppose these cuts in support of all the hungry people. No need to fast, but, if you can, donate some food to your local food bank and feed some hungry people. Thank you.

Feature Grouping
This page was created as a way to collect tickets, wiki pages, etc. that have similar goals. A ticket keyword just isn't enough sometimes. Add a group, description, analysis, and/or links about a feature you are interested in. If there is too much information about the feature to fit on this page, then create a wiki page dedicated to that feature and link to it here.
Please note that there is already a grouping of VersionOneFeatures.
All of these might be the same thing: http://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&summary=%7Eauto_now&order=priority
Cache System
A few tickets that seem to relate to the same problem with using the 2.4 decorator syntax for cache_page: (#1015, #2564, #2567)
Unicode encoding issues
Several tickets are mentioned in this mailing list thread: unicode issues in multiple tickets (#952, #1356, #3370) and thread about Euro sign in django-users
Comments made by Michael in the above mailing list thread
The problem that started the original thread in django-users was that the MySQLdb backend thought it was using latin-1 encoding for the connection and therefore could not encode '€', which is in iso-8859-15 but not in iso-8859-1 aka iso-latin-1. Ticket #2896 seems to explain how this can happen.
In my opinion, each of the three tickets in the subject should solve this issue, and none tries to cope with templates written in a different encoding than settings.DEFAULT_ENCODING.
#952 allows to use a different encoding on the connection than settings.DEFAULT_CHARSET. It does it for all backends.
#1365 sets connection.charset in the mysql backend to utf8. This makes the MySQLdb use utf8 encoding, but it's hackish and has been reported not to work in all environments.
#3370 opens the mysql backend connection with charset='utf8', which seems a cleaner way to do the same as #1365. It also fixes the repr of models (not sure if this is the best way, but this can be added to any of the other patches)
My bottom line is that #952 has a different scope than the other two tickets, and that #1365 should be closed as duplicate of #3370. #3370 and #952 can co-exist.
I'm still working on a different proposal.
contrib.comments rewrite
- #3546 - Add timestamp and user for edits to Comment/FreeComment in contrib.comments
- #1829 - refactor comment urls
- #2134 - add comment object to comments/posted template
- #1853 - admin documentation section errors for 'comments' tags
- #2177 - include Free Preview and Posted Templates for Comments App (has patch)
- #2228 - Add e-mail and URL to free comments (with patch, design. dec. needed)
- #3091 - Add 'extra_context' and 'context_processors' to django.contrib.comments (with patch)
- #3473 - Karma creation broken (with patch)
- #3546 - Add timestamp and user for edits to Comment/FreeComment
edit_inline Issues
Many of these will be obsoleted by newforms-admin and subsequent changes after 0.96
- weird interaction with auto_now_add on update raising an exception (#2717)
- Multiple FileFields & edit_inline interaction overwriting preceeding files (#2413, #792)
- interacting with a specific unique_together ordering (#2470, #526, #2415)
- problems with unique (#565)
- edit_inline deleting stuff (#3425)
- validator issues: (#265, #1690, #3043)
- Manipulator allowing "stealing" of related objects (#3145)
- Multiple Foreign Keys (#1939 & another 3 or 4 tickets marked as dupes)
- Not using a sensible default state (#2159)
- Causing KeyError, when
follow=Falsein manipulator constructor or
editable=Falsein model definintion (#2434, #1603)
- Causing IndexError (#3519)
- OneToOne fields (#24)
- Ignoring things with core=True (#2724)
- Non-working prepopulate from (#957)
- A possible better way of doing things (which Adrian says is "fantastic") #2248 (*note: backwards incompatible change)
- Problem with
- Admin ordering not working (#2679)
- feature: Javascript adding/deleting in admin interface (#13)
- collapsing in admin interface (#494)
- OneToOne edit_inline - can not add new object in Django admin (#3662)
Incorrect SQL construction
There are a bunch of these, so here's a placeholder for them. Many are already assigned to mtredinnick; the remainder should be. I'm working on a rewrite of the query creation portion of QuerySets -- Malcolm.
Current manipulator tickets should be tested with newforms to make sure the problems aren't repeated
Tickets that can be closed once newforms is being used in generic views
Feature requests that need a decision on whether or not to add to newforms
Tickets still need to be looked at: http://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&summary=%7EManipulator&order=priority
There are a few tickets aiming to add features to the Paginator class, and even a new implementation by Adrian in #1374. There is also code for a PaginatorTag.
#1795, #1374, #3169, #3170, #2603

One thing I left out of my talk with racing legend and 1970 LeMans winner Hans Herrmann was that I convinced him to try a quick lap on Forza. Because, you know, all octogenarians love video games.
Hans did remarkably well, I think, considering how foreign the normal XBox controller must seem, and my inane questions (race-wise?). Plus, he even recognized a corner on the Nordschleife where Senna once passed him. And, while his final assessment was it's only really good for der kinder, it may have some use to help you learn a track.
Hans was quite a good sport, though I don't expect Microsoft will be approaching him for an endorsement deal any time soon.

Massive Avalanche Slowly Buries an Italian Village
A farmer in the Italian Alps filmed an ominously slow moving avalanche that oozed down a mountain Thursday and slowly ate up everything in its path.
The footage was shot in the Passiria valley in South Tyrol, Italy. The river of snow poured down for more than five minutes, eating residences at the base of the mountain and blocking road access to the area.
Residents of the village were evacuated by helicopter and car and no one was hurt.

A crazed man detonates an explosive at a busy international airport. We think we know the story line: a suicide bomber surely, a twisted faith perhaps, scattered limbs of innocent passersby adding to a global death count. But the narrative shifts — and the bomber is suddenly cast in the role of victim by the online Chinese public, with some even calling the ruling Communist Party to account. "In order to prevent such extreme behavior, China needs to accelerate political reform," Zhao Xiao, a professor at the Beijing Institute of Technology, told TIME after his online defense of the bomber was reposted 50,000 times.
Early in the evening of July 20, in the international-arrivals hall of Beijing Capital International Airport, Ji Zhongxing sat in his wheelchair, holding a white package and a stack of leaflets. The documents referred to the beating he said he received in the southern Chinese city of Dongguan at the hands of the chengguan, a shadowy urban-management force that operates with startling impunity across the nation. But Ji was mostly ignored by the suitcase-rolling crowds, the jet-setting elite who help power the world's second largest economy. After a while, the former motorcycle-taxi driver, who was paralyzed by the beating and spent eight years petitioning the government for justice, held up the mysterious parcel. He shouted for everyone to stay clear. Then, in the only way he must have believed he could draw attention to his plight, Ji triggered his homemade bomb — a radical act by a man whose life had narrowed to a single, hopeless pursuit. "If this happened in any other airport in any other country, he would be recognized as a terrorist," Li Chengpeng, one of China's most daring bloggers, tells TIME. "But because it happened in China, where people have nowhere to redress injustice, he has gained more sympathy than blame."
(MORE: Crackdowns and Executions Provoke Shock and Outrage in China's Business Community)
China's airport bomber is only the latest desperate individual to provoke online compassion in a nation where the judicial system is calibrated both to allow for extralegal oppression and to prevent the remedying of citizens' grievances. Three days before the airport explosion, a watermelon seller in central China died on the street after being attacked by chengguan. The next day, in the country's northeast, another vendor was beaten by a clutch of urban-management thugs. Meanwhile, thousands of petitioners, each armed with a tale of official malfeasance, continue to flock to Beijing, hoping that an ancient system of bringing their woes to the Emperor — or, at least, to the State Bureau for Letters and Visits — will result in wrongs righted. Their wishes are misplaced — until the Communist Party makes protecting individual rights more of a priority. "In China, we have courts and lawyers, but we have no rule of law," says blogger Li, whose Sina Weibo social-media account was shuttered by censors after he posted on the watermelon vendor's death. "Almost every week, two or three similar incidents happen. It's dizzying."
It's also numbing. Every few days, I receive a text message from petitioners who in a sentence or two try to plead their case for publication in TIME. "Please help me things," said one message in broken English I received earlier this month from a farmer I've known for years. Apple grower Yu Baozhong has sustained multiple beatings and jailings after having dared to challenge the local chieftains by winning a village election. When he calls, which is often, and I struggle to decipher his thick provincial dialect, I have no idea how to respond anymore.
(MORE: A Reformist Chinese Leader? Stop Fooling Yourself)
What I think but do not say is that in more than a decade of interviewing petitioners, I have never met a single person who has succeeded in receiving suitable compensation or justice. With the rise of Chinese microblogging, or Weibo, some of the most egregious instances of abuse of power can get a public airing. This is a huge change from a few years before. A day after Ji tried to blow himself up — doctors were forced to amputate his hand but there were no other significant injuries at the airport — China's state broadcaster announced that Dongguan authorities were reopening his case. But should it take a homemade bomb at one of the world's largest airports to trigger such action? And other cases, like the 120 Tibetans who have immolated themselves in recent years to protest government repression, remain strictly censored.
China's economy is flagging. Instances of social unrest — and social injustice — will likely proliferate. Despite an anticorruption drive initiated by President Xi Jinping, who is less than a year into his decadelong posting, there is little indication yet of political or social reform. One of China's bravest activists, Xu Zhiyong, was locked up on July 16. Then his lawyer was briefly detained. In early June, Du Bin, a crusading Chinese photographer whose pictures have appeared in TIME, was detained and accused of spreading rumors, disturbing social order and printing illegal publications. The police kept asking him "why a person like me, who comes from a good family background, would become someone who exposes the Communist Party's scars."
Du is now out on bail; his freedom is tenuous. But he considers himself lucky compared with the petitioners whom he has chronicled for a decade. Some have committed suicide, while others have allowed their despair to metastasize into violence against society. "It's so sad that ordinary people have to resort to such extreme methods to attract the government's attention," Du says. Airport bomber Ji now holds his nation's interest. But he remains paralyzed. His violent outburst claimed his hand. The police say he is under criminal detention. No one, not even his family, knows exactly where. Ji Zhongxing is still lost.

Personally, I think he is a good drummer for his time, when drummers just gave a nice groove and then some, and that he deserves credit not only for that but also for inspiring literally millions of people to take up the drum sticks. Not only a good sticksman, but also really influential.
Your two cents???

Re: Ringo Starr
I'm a big fan of Ringo, so here are the points:
The idea that Ringo was a lucky Johnny-on-the-spot-with-a-showbiz-stage-name is wrong. In fact, when Beatle producer George Martin expressed his unhappiness after the first session with original drummer Pete Best, the decision was made by Paul, George, and John to hire who they considered to be the best drummer in Liverpool - Ringo Starr. His personality was a bonus.
Ringo was the first true rock drummer to be seen on TV. All the Rock & Roll drummers featured with Elvis, Bill Haley, Little Richard, Fats Domino and Jerry Lee Lewis were mostly R&B drummers that were making the transition from a swing drumming style of the 40's and 50's toward the louder and more "rocking" sound that is associated with "I Want To Hold Your Hand". They were dressed in tuxedos and suits and held the drumsticks in the "traditional" manner of military, orchestra, and jazz drummers. Ringo showed the world that power was needed to put the emphasis on the "rock" in Rock & Roll music, so he gripped both sticks like hammers and proceeded to build a foundation for rock music.
Ringo changed the way drummers hold their sticks by making popular the "matched" grip of holding drumsticks. Nearly all drummers in the Western World prior to Ringo held their sticks in what is termed the "traditional" grip, with the left hand stick held like a chopstick. This grip was originally developed by military drummers to accomodate the angle of the drum when strapped over the shoulder. Ringo's grip changes the odd left hand to match the right hand, so that both sticks are held like a flyswatter. Rock drummers along with marching band and orchestral percussionists now mostly play with a "matched" grip, and drum companies have developed straps and accessories to accomodate them.
Ringo started a trend of placing drummers on high risers so that they would be as visible as the other musicians. When Ringo appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, he immediately caught the attention of thousands of "drummers to be" by towering over the other three Beatles. Elvis's drummer was looking at a collection of backs.
These same "wannabe" drummers also noticed that Ringo was playing Ludwig drums and they immediately went out and bought thousands of these drumsets, thus establishing Ludwig as the definitive name in Rock & Roll drums at that time.
Ringo changed the sound of recorded drums. About the time of Rubber Soul (released Dec. 6,1965), the sound of the drumset started to become more distinct. Along with help from the engineers at Abbey Road studios, Ringo popularized a new sound for the drums by tuning them lower, deadening the tonal ring with muffling materials, and making them sound "closer" by putting a microphone on each drum.
Ringo has nearly perfect tempo. This allowed the Beatles to record a song 50 or 60 times, and then be able to edit together different parts of numerous takes of the same song for the best possible version. Today an electronic metronome is used for the same purpose, but the Beatles had to depend on Ringo to keep the tempo consistant throughout the dozens of takes of the songs that you know and love so well. Had he not had this ability, the Beatles recordings would sound completely different today.
Ringo's "feel" for the beat serves as a standard for pop-rock record producers and drummers alike. It is relaxed, but never dragging. Solid, yet always breathing. And yes, there is a great amount of musical taste in his decisions of what to play and when to play it. In most recording sessions, the drummer's performance acts as a barometer for the rest of the musicians. The stylistic direction, dynamics, and emotions are filtered through the drummer. He is the catcher to whom the pitcher/songwriter is throwing. If the drumming doesn't feel good, the performance of any additional musicians is doomed from the start. The Beatles rarely if ever had this problem with Ringo.
Ringo hated drum solos, which should win points with quite a few people. He only took one solo while with the Beatles. His eight measure solo appears during "The End" on the "B" side of Abbey Road. Some might say that it is not a great display of technical virtuosity, but they would be at least partially mistaken. You can set an electronic metronome to a perfect 126 beats per minute, then play it along with Ringo's solo and the two will stay exactly together.
Ringo's ability to play odd time signatures helped to push popular songwriting into uncharted areas. Two examples are "All you Need is Love" in 7/4 time, and "Here Comes the Sun" with repeating 11/8, 4/4, and 7/8 passages in the chorus.
Ringo's proficiency in many differen styles such as two beat swing ("When I'm Sixty-Four"), ballads ("Something"), R&B ("Leave My Kitten Alone" and "Taxman") and country (the Rubber Soul album) helped the Beatles to explore many musical directions with ease. His pre-Beatle experience as a versatile and hard working nightclub musician served him well.
The rumors that Ringo did not play on many of the Beatle songs because he was not good enough are also false. In fact, he played on every released Beatles recording (not including Anthology 1) that include drums except for the following: "Back In The USSR" and "Dear Prudence", on which Paul played drums due to Ringo temporarily quitting the band, "The Ballad of John and Yoko", again featuring Paul on drums because Ringo was off making a movie, and a 1962 release of "Love Me Do" featuring session drummer Andy White.
When the Beatles broke up and they were all trying to get away from each other, John Lennon chose Ringo to play drums on his first solo record. As John once said, "If I get a thing going Ringo knows where to go, just like that.." A great songwriter could ask no more of a drummer. Except maybe to smile and bob his head.

Re: Ringo Starr
I am not the biggest fan of Ringo, but I appreciate the Beatles and give credit where credit is due. I am still amazed by his drumming on Rubber Soul, the kits sound great on that record. The tunes are great pop tunes no one can deny that. He played for the Beatles, a band that is very much based on lyrics and harmonies. I think for the instruments sake it was almost secondary. It's funny a lot of musicians will pose the who's better argument of Charlie Watts or Ringo, I don't understand how these guys got a bad rap for their drumming.
Re: Ringo Starr
I'm impressed. I always knew Ringo was a good drummer, but one of the surprises in Bernhard's post was when I read that "Here Comes the Sun" is played in 11/8, 4/4, and 7/8. I never would've guessed. Either way, great post.
Re: Ringo Starr
Just as a bit of added material, here is an article my friends dad wrote on ringo and bernard purdie. I found it very interesting. http://www.jimvallance.com/03-projec...pg-purdie.html
Re: Ringo Starr
I just wanted to post that link... :) Really, really interesting source! Thx for sharing!!

Re: Ringo Starr
he did what was asked of him, no more, no less.
Re: Ringo Starr
OH-----------MY-----------------GOD.Burdie was a Beatle?????heh,the truth has a nasty way of getting out there :) Next its revealed that Elvis the King didn´t sing on his records????
If that happens,then ill do something drastic :)
Re: Ringo Starr
Come on guys, he was not that good. the only thing that made him larger than life was that he was part of the beatles. You can argue all you want about how he can keep good tempo and make good beats but hes not all that good of a drummer (as in what your skill is as a drummer).
Re: Ringo Starr
Please go listen to Abbey Road, and then tell us all what's not all that good about the drumming.
Re: Ringo Starr
i'm afraid tallassfreak89 that you are treading on dangerous ground here. our beloved founder, bernard is a die hard fan of ringo. since i've been on this forum it is the one aspect of his posts that never changes. if he had a quote that he uses often, like homer says 'hmm dooonuts aaaaarrghghg!' it is certainly: 'don't bash ringo' ... a friendly warning. if you have critiscism about this particular drummer you'd better have lots of evidence to back it up ...
bashing ringo may actually be a banning offence.
ps: jokes. but do expand on your opinion.
Re: Ringo Starr
I find the Purdie playing for the Beatles not surprising at all. He is the most recorded drummer why would he stop there. He's the guy you bring in the studio when you want job done right. Interesting post.
Re: Ringo Starr
Hes good now thats about it tho, he wasnt anything out of the ordinary back then
Re: Ringo Starr
Re: Ringo Starr
Ringo is one on lovely drummers in the hole world..............................
Re: Ringo Starr
Ringo... what can you say, probably the most influencial drummer of our time. That washy sound that he got from his hi-hats is still being heard today. His drums sounded real good and he had incredible feel. Sure, he may have not been the most "technical" drummer but his feel was second to none. You probably could not count how many drummers decided to pick up the sticks after seeing him play. My favorite drummer, Ringo!
Re: Ringo Starr
I guess Ringo gets a lot of credit for being a drummer at that time. He certainly doesn't hold a candle up against many of the later great drummers that came after him (many of whom admit Ringo was a big influence)
Lets face it, Ringo IS a rock 'n roll star, and we can't take that away from him.
I like Charlie Watts better, of all the bashed beloved Bernhard drummers on here. But Charlie doesn't have the rockstar persona that Ringo has. Not even the name!!
Plus Ringo was in the movie 'Caveman'. That should shut everyone up for now! hehe
Re: Ringo Starr
ringo its a classic.. i admire him
Re: Ringo Starr
Thank you soo much. Perhabs it's a spleen of me - but I like this guy.
We all know the skills some drummers have today. But anyway - all drummers that I admit they have more skills don't bash Ringo - they even admire him. Take Steve Gadd, Gregg Bissonette, Dennis Chambers, Dave Weckl: all told it to me personally.
And even, if he's not so great - who saled more records?
And for sure he's the better drummer as 99.99% of us forum members. And the forum is for us all - also Drummerworld-Concept is for us all - let's have fun......and please don't bash Ringo.....
Thank you
Re: Ringo Starr
If you look at MD's interview with Sir Paul McCartney (an addition to the interview with Abe Laboriel jr), he says it's nonsense that Purdie played on some Beatles tracks and he can't believe Purdie has claimed that.
From an objective view: If Ringo didn't record every single Beatles tune, so what? He was (and is) a part of great music history and he certainly is a good drummer, a good musician and a good man.
Re: Ringo Starr
Even though I grew up during the 70's (after the breakup of the Beatles), I was heavily influenced by Ringo. One of the most indelible memories I had of him was a clip I saw of the Beatles performing at a stadium (perhaps Shea, I'm not positive). He had the drum riser shaking while playing "I Wanna Hold Your Hand." Later, in my teens, when I started listening to different bands and drummers, I didn't think anything of Ringo or the Beatles because he wasn't busy or flashy and didn't play a big kit (afterall, it was the 80's). As I grew older and started playing the drums, I started to realize how great Ringo was. His drum parts fit perfectly within the songs. His feel is underrated; yes, we could all play his parts note for note, but it would not sound or feel the same. I'm still knocked out by his early drum sound. Those swishy hi hats and high-pitched snare still stand up to anything recorded today. He is more influential that a lot of us are willing to admit.
Re: Ringo Starr
I still play my 1970 Black Oyster Pearl Ludwig set when I play out and at least once a night someone asks me if it is a copy or the real thing. It's always a big hit with other drummers. So I'd say Ringo was a big influence on me and my style. All the fancy chops are great but if you can't keep time then why bother.
Re: Ringo Starr
I wasn't there when the Beatles recorded their great albums, so my opinions are based only on what I've heard, seen and my knowledge of drumming. One thing that cannot be denied, Ringo had impecible time, and a great feel for rock and roll. I've never seen Ringo demonstrate any advanced level of chops, but, I have seen film of him playing live in which he demonstrates some impressive power and endurance with his right hand high hat work. (Playing along to some of his songs is indeed a right hand challenge). There's also no way for me to know what part Ringo played in his own drum parts. He was the drummer for some of the greatest, most creative pop song writers in history. I wouldn't be surprised if Paul, John and George played major roles in determining what Ringo's drum parts. Isn't it odd that Ringo never played a double stroke or paradiddle. In any event, he played his parts to perfection.
Re: Ringo Starr
Ringo was a major influence on me when I first started playing about 5 years ago. Sure he wasn't the reason why I picked up sticks (it was actually my brother's high school marching band, which I was later a part of) but my favorite band at the time, and still is, The Beatles, so I sat down and drummed along to Ringo tracks. I absolutly love him. Plus I saw him live, so eat that!
Even though now I've moved on and I'm jamming with Cream, Hendrix, Deep Purple, and The Who, I still go back to my all-time favorite band and lay down some 'slightly' more complicated fills on top of Ringo's. Its so much fun, he is such a great drummer. I still have trouble playing the End solo :(
Even compared with all the drummers of today, just take a listen to Abbey Road, and on it you'll hear some of the best drumming of all time. Even if you aren't impressed with his skill, listen to his drum sound. It is unmatched before and since. Those toms just give me the willies when I hear them!
Re: Ringo Starr
It's very easy:
Thank you Mr. Starkey
Long long - very long - time ago - I picked up the sticks because of Ringo (and perhabs also because of Brian Bennett - Little B - Shadows)
It took some years - even after being pro for some time - then I discovered SG BR and GK.
I'm sure 100'000 drummers are getting better drummers studying Steve.....
But 5 Million picked up the sticks because of Ringo.
Not to speak about the Ludwig Drum Company who had to buy forests in Canada to make more drumsets. OK - quality went down, because the wood was not good - too fresh and not old enough, but that's another story. I'm proud of my 1964 - old - original - Ludwig Drum-Set..... also another story...
Re: Ringo Starr
What is really reprehensible when the question of Ringo's drumming dexterity rears its ugly head is that Paul, John and George never did the right thing when they unceremoniously dumped Pete Best from the group in the first place.
Considering that the type of live drumming required by Rock & Roll percussionist in the early 1960's was not what it was by the late 1960's, Best was as good as, or better than, Ringo. John, Paul and George never complained about Best's competency for the year he played in clubs with them. In fact, it seems Best was the real draw for the chics who came to see these Liverpudlians.
It is obvious that when the Beatles were about to turn the corner, they had pangs of insecurity and even resentment about their current drummer, who was better looking and who might upstage their lyrics and melodies.
Would Billy Cobham or Ginger Baker have fit into the Beatles scheme better than Ringo? Of course not. Ringo was the perfect non-threatening musician who was counted on to compliment the stylized George Martin studio sound and who would not Wow! listeners with riffs that might diminish the other three's capabilities.
But it is interesting when the group (John, Paul, George) pursued individual careers, they all employed drummers whom they did not inhibit from a more productive and energetic rhythm than Ringo demonstrated on the Beatles 13 albums.
Had Ringo been Herman's Hermit's drummer would anyone know his name today? No. But Ringo was smart enough to know a good thing when he saw it (heard it?) and he rode the Beatles phenomenon for all it was worth.
Re: Ringo Starr
Re: Ringo Starr
Ringo's playing might seem deceptively easy to some of you until you try to play it. I particularly liked some of his performances on "Live at The BBC".There's a track on there where he's doing some great fast paradiddles on the intro. On "What Goes On" his right hand pattern on the hats is really tough to do while not doing straight 4s on the kick. The fact that he didn't solo much doesn't bother me at all. Try to do the latin beat of "I Feel Fine" at that speed and stay at even tempo. His fills are really hard to imitate unless you're a lefty playing a right hand kit. Then we get into some of the original grooves and use of things. The Timpany on "A Day In The Life" being integrated into the kit and not overdubbed?...absolutley brilliant. Listen to his groove and fills on "Flying" or the ferocious playing on "Slow Down"! He played those hats wide open while rocking. Where ya thing Bonham go the idea for that sound? Ringo. I love the man's playing, and I love the man.
As for Gadd being the most recorded drummer in pop music, I don't know. Hal Blaine maybe? I guess it depends on the time frame too. ...Matt

Re: Ringo Starr
Also, I was a big fan of Ringo until I saw the extras on the Band's The Last Waltz DVD. There's a long jam on it, it's pretty awful (most of the musicians who guested during the gig are on stage at the same time, so it's quite a mess), and Ringo is in the middle, adding to the chaos. Now I'm not totally dissing Ringo, I just thought that it was weak, and especially seeing as it was the drummer who had come up with such amazing stuff as Tomorrow Never Knows etc etc...I thought he could have put a bit of a shape on things. Maybe I'm being a bit harsh...many of the most famous musicians in the world on stage at the same time, it's forgiveable that no-one had the nerve to take the bull by the horns. Just a lost opportunity.
Hey! First post! Hooray!
Re: Ringo Starr
Nice first post I guess...
And why there is no topic for Zak Starkey?
Re: Ringo Starr
I am a huge fan of both Ringo and Zak. There should definately be a section dedicated to Zak's work. I love Keith Moon too, and in my opinion there is no one else who can fill the void left by moonie.

Ringo Starr
i did a search and i didn't find a ringo thread!! !?!?!!!!!!
i love his playing, he has a nice touch, very natural.. he is creative, very expressive, very musical and he did the beatles proud IMO
i love A Day in a Life, that has such a great feel to it, and strawberry fields too.. i can't really put into words what it is i like about his playing, or how much i like it, but yeah i just thought he deserved a thread of his own (like he'd care, but still..)
Re: Ringo Starr
Ringo played the drums the way a composer would write a drummer's part for the music the Beatles played. He made the music better and never overplayed. He never played with chops or did anything that would draw the listener's attention from the overall sound of the music to the drums.
Re: Ringo Starr
Ringo played with personality and creativity. These are two things we all strive for. He was a bona fide professional drummer before he joined The Beatles. He inspired more people to start playing drums than anyone else. Although he's never been known as a technician, if he wasn't any good he would not have been in the biggest band in the world to begin with. Even after the Fab Four broke up he played on everybody's solo albums. You can't not acknowlege that. Buddy Rich was once quoted as saying "Ringo was adequate, nothing more." Well, given Buddy's penchant for calling rock drummers no-talent animals, I'd take that as a compliment!
Re: Ringo Starr
Being 44, like thousands of others Ringo was my inspiration to play the drums. While Ringo's drumming obviously did the job my one knock against him is that while the other band members grew and matured so much in their songwriting and playing Ringo remained as he ever was...adequate at best. Must have been his self admitted disdain for practicing. I will say that Ringo did pioneer that slamming rock style we all still see today. I mean take a look at some of the old videos...that whole kit was just swaying when he played...and match grip too at a time when that was not even considered a valid grip!
That being said no one really cares but other drummers. Ask your average man on the street to name a famous drummer and 99 times out of 100 they will say Ringo!
Re: Ringo Starr
By the time the Beatles came to the U.S. I was just old enough to go to bars (18 was legal then) and I watched a lot of drummers in bar bands. When Ringo appeared on Ed Sullivan we were saying that he wasn't any good, and besides he held his sticks all wrong. I'm still not convinced that he was a very good drummer, but one thing he did do was introduce a whole new rock beat. Up to then most bands were playing four on the floor for bass. Also he influenced many people, me included, to take up drums, just as the others got a lot of guitar players started.
Re: Ringo Starr
I was wondering if there were any Ringo threads anywhere! I love Ringo. He is by far my favorite drummer. He doesn't try to take over a song, but he does give as much backbone to it as it needs. To point out a few of his particularly good tunes.........
I Feel Fine- the drum part on this song is quite complicated, yet he stays steady on through.
Rain- I really like the fills he puts in this song, bouncing around between snare and tom(s)
Helter Skelter- his work on this song sounds almost heavy metal, with the loud, bashing rhythm (and the part at the end where he yells "I've got blisters on my fingers!")
Come Together- I like the parts before the verses where he circles from ride to hi-hat to toms and back again.
Here Comes the Sun- this is a rather complicated drum part that he again did perfectly. I believe the tempos change throughout the song.
Those are it for now. I could go on for a lot longer, but I won't. DON'T BASH RINGO! haha.
Re: Ringo Starr
I think the jury is still out as to why Pete Best was replaced by Ringo. Another take on the story has it that "the boys" were jealous of all the attention Pete was getting from the ladies and Brian Epstein realized that to keep the ego's in check and from a marketing perspective that attention needed to be diverted where it rightly belonged...front and center, Lennon & McCartney.
No debating that Ringo was one of the best drummers on the scene at the time but was it merely coincidence that he was also a real goofy looking sort of fellow...certainly not the model type looks that Pete had at the time
Re: Ringo Starr
Ooops...I see Narada already covered that Pete Best angle that I mentioned...
...note to self...read all posts first before replying.............
What I still can't believe after all these years and all the success the Beatles had, not one of them ever spoke to Pete again. You would think that there would be some sense of guilt. I mean they went through the wars together and then when they are on the threshold of greatness...poof...they boot him.
I know if I was John, Paul or George with all their millions I would have rang him up and said thanks for getting us there Pete...here's a million dollars for all your hard work...you have a nice life.
That's the one part I don't understand.........

Wellington crowned men's National7s champions; Manawatu defend women's title
allblacks.com 12 Jan 2014 Getty Images
Earlier, the Manawatu women's side defended their title, putting Auckland away 19-12.
In the men's final returning All Blacks Sevens player Ben Lam opened the scoring for Auckland, but Wellington struck back with a brace of tries, including two to All Black Sevens veteran Lote Raikabula to lead 19-5 at the break.
Auckland responded early in the second half and closed the gap to 19-17, but Wellington co-captain Greg Foe hit back with a converted try to seal the win.
"We have been working hard for these boys, but we didn't think we were going to to do it," said Waldrom who is in charge of the team for the first time.
"There is a lot of talent in this young group and they are pretty new to sevens so for them to do so well in their first tournament is amazing."
Earlier, Auckland made the final despite a strong challenge from Northland who surprisingly thumped Canterbury 26 zip in the quarter finals.
The Aucklanders' route to the final was nearly blocked by the Tomasi Cama coached Manawatu side in the quarters, with Auckland needing a golden point try in extra time to put squeeze past them 19-14.
Wellington also faced a tough route to the final, upsetting defending champions Taranaki 10-5 in their semi-final, and pipping Otago 24-19 in the quarter final.
Manawatu triumph again
The women's final was a star studded affair with both teams boasting many in the New Zealand Women's Sevens team. Manawatu raced to a 14 nil lead with tries to Hayley Hutana and Selica Winiata before Auckland struck back through Kayla McAlister and Linda Itunu followed early in the second half. But a smart kick and chase try from Winiata sealed the win for Manawatu with three minutes to go.
Captain Sarah Goss said; "I am so happy for the girls, they played awesome rugby. We put in a lot of hard yards over the summer, we did a lot of fitness training and we played as a team."
Earlier, Manawatu dropped a game in pool play yesterday and needed two sharp tries from Winiata to help them squeeze past Otago in their quarter final today. However, they thumped Counties 24-5 to nail their final spot.
Auckland was in stand-out form all tournament, but faced a stiff test from Waikato in their semi-finals needing a last gasp try from IRB Women's Sevens Player of the Year Kayla McAlister to seal their spot in the final.
Sevens coaches satisfied
All Blacks Sevens coach Gordon Tietjens was very pleased at the depth of talent on display over the weekend as he heads into camp with the team tomorrow.
"There are a lot of young coaches coming through and it's great to see we are building depth as we head to the Olympics. I have seen a real improvement and seeing a young team like Wellington coming through and winning a bruising final is great."
New Zealand Women's Sevens coach Sean Horan was also pleased with the progress he saw over the weekend.
"Last year we had just six teams and Waikato, Manawatu and Auckland were a long way ahead of everyone else, but on day one you just saw Manawatu sneaking home, that sort of thing, so that's a true testament to what the Provincial Unions are putting in place, the coaching staff and players.
"It's still new, but what I have seen in the last two days has been pretty outstanding. The athletes are getting fitter and faster, the skill levels are getting better, hence the competition is getting better."
