This application is a continuation of, and claims a benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. 120 of the filing date of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/989,814 by inventors Robin D. Wilson, et al. entitled "Hierarchical Asset Sharing Model" filed on Nov. 20, 2001, the entire contents of which are hereby expressly incorporated by reference for all purposes.
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates generally to the sharing of assets by multiple objects, and more particularly to the sharing of assets according to a hierarchical asset sharing model, wherein the accessibility of each asset by each object can be controlled to allow various levels of control by the different objects.
2. Description of Related Art
More and more companies are taking advantage of e-commerce channels to communicate sales and marketing information to potential customers. One of the ways this is done is by creating web sites for the companies which are accessible through the Internet.
Although a web site may appear to be a very simple mechanism for distributing information, it can be very complicated to construct. The more information a company wishes to provide to customers through its web site, the more complicated the web site becomes. Interestingly, features which are intended to make the web site easier for visitors to use often require increased complexity in the structure of the web site. This leads to increased difficulty in the construction, maintenance and management of the web site.
One of the ways in which web site structure can be complicated is through the use of different web sites which need to utilize the same assets. "Assets" may include many different features of the web sites, such as images, documents and other page layout components, as well as architectural assets such as channels and views.
Conventionally, the sharing of these assets is accomplished by either copying the assets from one web site to another, or by modifying the software for the different web sites specifically to enable them to share assets. The first of these options, copying the assets, is relatively easy to accomplish, it does not really achieve the sharing of the assets. Put another way, each web site has its own set of assets, each of which is initially identical, but which may later diverge. Copying does not result in a common set of assets which is accessible by both web sites.
The second option, modification of the software for the web sites to enable them to share assets, can achieve the desired functionality, but at a relatively high cost. The programming effort which is required to modify the software can be tremendous, and is typically far too great to be justified by the resulting asset sharing between just a few web sites. Even if this option were not so costly, this type of programming effort is normally beyond the capabilities of the web site operators, who generally either purchase the software or contract out the development of the software.
One or more of the problems outlined above may be solved by the various embodiments of the invention. Broadly speaking, the invention comprises systems and methods for enabling the parent in a hierarchically organized pair of objects to allow the child to share access to selected assets. In one embodiment, the assets are shared in one of three modes: an IMPOSE mode; an INHERIT mode; and a CO-OWN mode. (Some assets may not be shared, which may be considered a fourth mode.) In the IMPOSE mode, the parent allows the child to utilize the asset, but not to modify it. In the CO-OWN mode, the parent and child have equal rights to access the asset, including the right to modify it. In the INHERIT mode, both the parent and child have equal rights to access the asset, including the right to modify it, but if the child attempts to modify the asset, it actually gets a copy of the asset, which it then modifies. The asset is no longer a single asset shared between the parent and child.
In a preferred embodiment, the invention is implemented in a system of web sites. The parent object may be a web site, or it may be a system administrator. Assets can be shared between multiple parent-child pairs, but they are shared on a pair by pair basis. The shared assets may include channels, views, articles, images, files, etc. The assets may be shared in sets, or they may be shared individually. If a set of assets is shared in the INHERIT mode, an attempt by the child to modify one of the assets will result in the assets being shared individually, rather than as a set. Then, the asset which is modified will exist as an original asset accessible by the parent and a modified copy accessible by the child. The remaining assets will still be shared by parent and child in the INHERIT mode. A single parent may share assets differently with one child than with another child.
An alternative embodiment of the invention comprises a method for sharing assets in a hierarchy of objects. The method comprises providing a pair of objects which are related as parent and child, then enabling the parent to share its assets with the child in one of the three modes described above (IMPOSE, INHERIT and CO-OWN).
Another alternative embodiment of the invention comprises a software application which implements a method for sharing assets in a hierarchy of objects. The software application provides a basis for enabling a group of objects to share assets in the manner described above, without having to make copies of the assets or re-write the software code for the objects to enable them to share assets. The software application defines a base asset class which contains the methods and properties that provide the asset sharing functionality. The software application further defines one or more asset classes which inherit the asset sharing functionality from the base class. ("Inherit" is used here in the object oriented programming context.)
The software application may be embodied in a computer-readable medium such as floppy disks, CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMs, RAM, ROM, database schemas and the like. The computer readable medium contains instructions which are configured to cause a computer to execute a method which is generally as described above. It should be noted that the computer readable medium may comprise a RAM or other memory which forms part of a computer system. The computer system would thereby be enabled to perform asset sharing as described above.
Numerous alternative embodiments are also possible.
Other objects and advantages of the invention may become apparent upon reading the following detailed description and upon reference to the accompanying drawings.
While the invention is subject to various modifications and alternative forms, specific embodiments thereof are shown by way of example in the drawings and the accompanying detailed description. It should be understood, however, that the drawings and detailed description are not intended to limit the invention to the particular embodiment which is described. This disclosure is instead intended to cover all modifications, equivalents and alternatives falling within the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
A preferred embodiment of the invention is described below. It should be noted that this and any other embodiments described below are exemplary and are intended to be illustrative of the invention rather than limiting.
Broadly speaking, the invention comprises systems and methods for implementing a hierarchical asset sharing model in hierarchical systems such as web site systems. In one embodiment of this model, the parent of a parent-child pair can grant access to one or more of its assets to the child using several different access modes. In a first mode, the parent imposes its asset on the child. That is, it allows the child to utilize the asset, but not to modify it. In a second mode, the parent allows the child to have equal rights to access the asset, including the right to modify it. In a third mode, both the parent and child have essentially equal rights to access the asset. Both can utilize the asset, and both have the apparent right to modify it. If the parent attempts to modify the asset, the modified asset is shared between the parent and child. If the child attempts to modify the asset, it actually gets a copy of the asset, which it then modifies. The originally shared asset is no longer shared, and is an asset only of the parent, while the modified copy is an asset only of the child.
While the three modes described above will be referred to herein as the IMPOSE, CO-OWN and INHERIT modes, respectively, these labels have been selected for the convenience of the reader, and any label (or even no labels at all) may be used in a given embodiment of the invention.
Referring to
The set of assets 15 can be shared in any of the three sharing modes which will be described herein as "IMPOSE", "INHERIT" and "CO-OWN". These modes will be described in detail below.
Referring to
It should be noted that the shared assets can comprise only a portion of the total assets of either the parent or the child. The sharing of only a portion of the parent's assets can be seen in
Referring to
While the IMPOSE and CO-OWN modes are relatively straightforward, the INHERIT mode is more complicated. Parent 21 shares assets with child 23 using the INHERIT mode. The INHERIT mode is similar to the CO-OWN mode in that both parent 21 and child 24 can freely utilize the assets and, initially, both have rights to modify the assets. The INHERIT mode is distinctive, however, in that child 23 cannot actually modify the shared assets. When child 23 attempts to modify one of the assets, a copy of that asset is created for use by the child. Thus, there are two copies of the same asset (which was previously shared between the parent and the child). The child then the modifies its own copy of the asset. Thereafter, child 23 utilizes its modified copy of the asset rather than the shared asset. Parent 21 continues to use the asset which it originally shared with child 23. If this asset is shared with any other children, those children continue to use the asset of parent 21.
It should be noted that, if a group of assets is shared by the parent and child in the INHERIT mode, modification of one of the assets in the group will cause that asset to be copied and separately utilized by the parent and child, but will not prevent the other assets in the group from being shared. Referring to
It should be noted that the INHERIT mode is not associated with the concept of inheritance as used in object-oriented programming. "INHERIT" is simply used to identify the mode because it is somewhat suggestive of the corresponding manner in which assets are shared.
The various embodiments of the invention may take various forms, and need not be confined to the sharing of assets only among web sites. The scope of this disclosure is intended to encompass all such embodiments.
Although the invention may comprise many different embodiments, a preferred embodiment is implemented in a web site system. A web site has a number of assets which are associated with it. For example, it may have content assets such as articles, images, files, etc., or it may have site structure assets, such as channels, views, content providers, workflows and so on. This web site may be part of an enterprise system which includes a number of other web sites. Consequently, it may be desirable to share assets across these sites in order to make the most efficient use of the assets.
As described above, it is not easy to share assets using conventional means (e.g., by making copies of the assets or by modifying the code of the web site). It is therefore useful to implement the hierarchical asset sharing model of the present invention to achieve this capability.
In one embodiment, the hierarchical asset sharing model is implemented in a software application designed to provide infrastructure for deploying an enterprise-level portal. The application is designed to enable businesses to configure, customize and deploy portal applications. These portal applications may be used for purposes such as sales and business collaboration, channel management and employee relations.
The application uses browser-based management dashboards and reporting consoles to enable an administrator to manage the various sites in a business' system. Asset sharing is managed in the application through a site management console. The site management console includes individual management pages for each type of asset. For example, channels are managed through a channel management page, views are managed through a view management page, and so on.
The sharing of assets is managed on a site-by-site basis. Assets can be shared in different ways on different sites. For instance, a parent site may share channels, but not views with one child site, while sharing your views, but not channels with another child site. In this application, a particular site can only share assets with its direct descendents in the hierarchical structure of the sites. Assets cannot be shared with parent or sibling sites.
The application defines four modes for sharing assets: IMPOSE; INHERIT; CO-OWN; and NONE. Here, NONE is considered a sharing mode, even though no assets are shared. This allows a user to explicitly indicate that a particular asset or set of assets is not shared. Each of these modes is described in more detail in the following table.
The specified asset of the parent
is imposed on the child site.
The child site uses the assets
as-is, and cannot modify or
delete the asset. Furthermore,
the child site cannot remove
its own reference to the asset.
The child site can use the asset
as-is. Changes made to the
asset by the parent are reflected
at the child site. If the child
site wishes to modify the asset,
the modifications are made to
a copy of the asset, which is
then stored by the child site. The
reference to the original asset
is also retained by the child site
in this embodiment, but it is
disabled. (The child site can re-
enable the reference to the
original asset if necessary.)
The child site can use, modify
or delete the asset.
Modifications or deletions by
the child site are reflected at the
parent site, and modifications
or deletions by the parent site
are reflected at the child site.
(Likewise, these modifications
or deletions are reflected at
other child sites which share the
The child site does not share
the asset with the parent site.
The application is configured to share assets either individually, or in sets as described above. In this particular implementation, however, the sharing of a set may result in a limitation on the child site. For example, if the set of channels is shared, the child may be prevented from creating additional assets of that same type. If, on the other hand, the channels are shared individually, the child may create additional channels which are part of its own set of channel assets.
Although a parent site cannot share its assets with descendents beyond its children (e.g., its grandchildren), the parent site's children can share the assets with their own children. The child sites can share no more than their own rights in the assets. Put another way, the asset is shared between the child and the descendent in a mode which is no less restrictive than the mode in which the asset is shared between the parent and the child. For example, if a parent IMPOSEs an asset on its child, the child can do no more than IMPOSE the asset on the grandchild (e.g., it cannot allow its child to CO-OWN the asset). If the parent allows its child to CO-OWN the asset, the child can share the asset with its own child using any of the four sharing modes (IMPOSE, INHERIT, CO-OWN, or NONE). The application is configured to generate management pages for the child sites such that the sharing which can be performed is constrained in this manner.
An example of an implementation of the hierarchical asset sharing model disclosed herein is set forth below. Referring to
The site administrator of parent site 51 has the authority to set the sharing for children 52-57. In particular, the sharing of channels within the web sites will be illustrated here. It is assumed for the purposes of this example that parent site 51 shares its channel assets as follows:
Worldwide Media International
East Coast Review
Pacific Herald
Worldwide Media Television
The channel assets of parent site 51 are shared as a set. Assets can be shared either in sets or as individual assets. An individual asset is just that—a single asset of a particular type (e.g., a single channel or image). In the present application, a set of assets includes the entire body of assets of a particular kind (e.g., all channels or all images). The set of assets includes only those assets which are available to the site which is sharing them, and all of those assets must be available for sharing in the selected mode.
When an individual asset is inherited by a child site, the child site can create additional assets of its own without affecting the behavior of the shared assets. Referring to
When a set of assets is shared via the INHERIT mode, the child site is given a reference to the parent's set of assets. When the child site modifies one of the assets in the set, the asset is "copied on change." After the asset has been changed, it is no longer shared with the parent. Similarly, the set is no longer shared with the parent. The child site instead has its own set which shares some of the assets of the parent's set. Assets which are added to the parent's set will not be added to the child's set, whereas when the child shared the parent's set, assets added by the parent to its set would also be available to the child.
The sharing mode for each of the children is set in the application through a set-sharing page, as illustrated in
Worldwide Media International (CO-OWN) The channel management page of the Worldwide Media International site lists all the channels provided by a Worldwide Media Group. The Worldwide Media International site can make changes to the channels, and the changes it makes will be reflected at the Worldwide Media Group site. Because the parent site can only grant a child site an asset sharing mode equal to or less than its own sharing mode for the same asset (if the asset is shared with its parent,) Worldwide Media International is free to share these assets (CO-OWNed with parent 51) with its own child sites, Canada Times 60, Journal Francaise 61 and Periodico de Espana 62 in any way it wishes.
East Coast review (INHERIT) The channel management page of the East Coast Review site lists all the channels provided by the Worldwide Media Group site. The INHERIT share type allows the East Coast Review to change channel information on its own site, but not on the Worldwide Media Group site. Therefore, if a channel is changed at the East Coast Review, a copy of the parent's channel is created. The copy appears in addition to the parent's original channels on the child site.
Pacific Herald (IMPOSE) The channel management page of the Pacific Herald site lists all the channels from the Worldwide Media Group site. The Pacific Herald site administrator can view the details of each channel, but cannot change them. Any changes the Worldwide Media Group makes to any of the IMPOSEd channels are automatically reflected on the Pacific Herald site. The Pacific Herald site has no control over how channel assets are shared with its own child sites. If the Pacific Herald were to add any child sites, Worldwide Media Group's channels would be imposed on all of Pacific Herald's descendent sites.
Worldwide media television (NONE) The channel management page for Worldwide Media Television does not show any of the Worldwide Media Group site's channels. Worldwide Media Television is free to create its own channels. If Worldwide Media Television creates its own channels, it has full control over them and can grant its child sites any share type (sharing mode) it chooses to these assets.
It should be noted that any of the particular assets of the parent site can be shared individually. If the share type for a set of assets is NONE, the sharing of an individual asset within this set will not affect the remaining assets. If the share type for a set of assets is IMPOSE, INHERIT or CO-OWN, assignment of a different share type to one of the assets within the set will cause each of the assets to be shared individually, instead of as a set.
This can be illustrated with reference to the example of

Living Together Before Marriage
Good or Bad
Cohabitation can be described as two unmarried people of the opposite sex in a relationship of personal, legal, and social commitment that marriage represents.
Cohabitation has advantages and disadvantages which it varies from one couple to another.Some of my friends know couples who say, "We should live together before marriage."
On the other hand, they know other couples who prefer to live together after marriage.
I have friends who lived together before marriage and they believe that this helped them to know each other better and they succeeded in enjoying a happy marriage.
Everyone should know everything about the other person whom they are marrying. This is a tremendous help in deciding what differences, if any, could be detrimental to their relationship. It takes time to get to know each other and it is beneficial to know how we will handle our daily lives, with the respect of behavioral, financial, religious, and employment positions. Also, the freedom associated with living together is another important aspect to consider, because eventually the couple may decide to marry and begin a successful relationship together.
I also know a group of friends who say that cohabitation is the worst way in which to get to know one another. They feel that this eliminates the advantage of a communal relationship, thus preventing an honest friendship. Couples who live together before marriage often depend on sexual relationships and put less effort into conversational and communication issues. I have not experienced marriage yet, but upon observing some friends who are living together, it is obvious that they argue and fight a lot, with no apparent reasons. However, when they later engage in sexual activities their relationship returns back to normal.
My friends who live together before marriage see this method as being more convenient, but it is not the main or best reason. They believe that living together prior to marriage will disclose any habits or behaviors that will not coincide with each other.
Finally, couples may decide to live together before or after marriage, but they must look for the outcomes and considerations on both sides of the wedding ring. I believe that living together before marriage will lead to a long- term successful relationship.

Bohemond I (c. 1054 – 3 March 1111) was the prince of Taranto from 1089 to 1111 and the prince of Antioch from 1098 to 1111. Bohemond was a major leader in the First Crusade which was governed by a committee of nobles.[1] The Norman monarchy he founded in Antioch outlasted both that of England and Sicily.[2]
Early life[edit]
Childhood and youth[edit]
Bohemond was the only child of Robert Guiscard, Count of Apulia and Calabria, and his first wife, Alberada of Buonalbergo.[3][4] He was born between 1050 and 1058 (according to historian John Julius Norwich, around 1054).[5][6] He was baptised Mark, possibly because he was born at his father's castle at San Marco Argentano in Calabria.[7][5] He received the nickname Bohemond after an otherwise unknown legendary giant.[5]
His parents were related within the degree of kinship that made their marriage invalid, according to canon law.[3] Robert Guiscard decided to marry Sikelgaita, the sister of Gisulf, the Lombard Prince of Salerno around 1058.[4][8] He expelled Alberada and Bohemond became a bastard due to the annulment of his parents' marriage.[4][9] Before long, Alberada married Robert Guiscard's nephew, Richard of Hauteville.[8] She arranged for a knightly education for Bohemond.[10]
Robert Guiscard was taken seriously ill in early 1073.[11][12] Fearing that he was dying, Sikelgaita held an assembly in Bari.[12] She persuaded Robert's vassals who were present to proclaim her eldest son, the thirteen-year-old Roger Borsa, Robert's heir, saying that the half-Lombard Roger would be the most acceptable ruler for the Lombard noblemen in Southern Italy.[11][13] Robert's nephew, Abelard of Hauteville, was the only baron to protest, because he regarded himself Robert's lawful heir.[14]
Byzantine wars[edit]
Bohemond fought in his father's army during the rebellion of Jordan I of Capua, Geoffrey of Conversano and other Norman barons in 1079.[10] His father dispatched him at the head of an advance guard against the Byzantine Empire in early 1081.[15] He captured Valona (now Vlorë in Albania).[15] He sailed to Corfu, but did not invade the island because the local garrison outnumbered his army.[16] He withdrew to Butrinto to await the arrival of his father's forces.[16] After Robert Guiscard arrived in the second half of May, they laid siege to Durazzo (present-day Durrës in Albania).[16] The Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos came to the rescue of the town, but his army suffered a crushing defeat on 18 October.[17] Bohemond was the commander of the left flank which defeated the "Varangian Guard" of the emperor (which at that time consisted mainly of Anglo-Saxons).[17][18]
The Normans captured Durazzo on 21 February 1082.[19][20] They marched along the Via Egnatia as far as Kastoria, but Alexios's agents stirred up a rebellion in Southern Italy, which forced Robert Guiscard to return to his realm in April.[20][21] He charged Bohemond with the command of his army in the Balkan Peninsula.[22] Bohemond defeated the Byzantines at Ioannina and Arta, taking control of most of Macedonia and Thessaly.[23] However, the siege of Larissa, which lasted for six months, was unsuccessful.[23] Supply and pay problems, and the gifts that the Byzantines promised to the deserters undermined the morale of the Norman army.[23][24] Bohemond returned to Italy for financial support.[24] During his absence, most commanders of the Norman army deserted to the Byzantines and a Venetian fleet recaptured Durazzo and Corfu.[24]
Bohemond again accompanied his father to the Byzantine Empire in 1084.[15][24] They defeated the Venetian fleet and captured Corfu.[15] An epidemic decimated the Normans[21] and Bohemond, who had taken seriously ill, was forced to return to Italy in December 1084.[21][25]
Succession crisis[edit]
Robert Guiscard died at Cephalonia on 17 July 1085.[25] Ordericus Vitalis, William of Malmesbury and other contemporaneous writers accused his widow, Sikelgaita, of having poisoned Robert Guiscard to secure Apulia to her son, Roger Borsa, but they did not establish her guilt.[26] She persuaded the army to acclaim Roger Borsa his father's successor and they hurried back to Southern Italy.[27][28] Two months later the assembly of the Norman barons confirmed this decision, but Bohemond regarded himself his father's lawful heir.[29] He made an alliance with Jordan of Capua and captured Oria and Otranto.[30][31] Bohemond and Roger Borsa met at their father's tomb at Venosa to reach a compromise.[31] According to their agreement, Bohemond received Taranto, Oria, Otranto, Brindisi and Gallipoli, but he acknowledged Roger Borsa's suzerainty.[31]
Bohemond renewed the war against his brother in autumn 1087.[32] The ensuing civil war prevented the Normans from supporting Pope Urban II and enabled Bohemond's and Roger Borsa's uncle, Roger I of Sicily, to increase his power.[33][34] Bohemond captured Bari in 1090.[35][36] Before long, he took control of most lands to the south of Melfi.[33]
First Crusade[edit]
In 1097, Bohemond, along with his uncle Roger I of Sicily the great count of Sicily, was attacking Amalfi, which had revolted against Duke Roger, when bands of crusaders began to pass, on their way through Italy to Constantinople. The zeal of the crusader came upon Bohemond; it is possible, however, that he saw in the First Crusade nothing more than a chance to carve for himself an eastern principality.[37] Geoffrey Malaterra bluntly states that Bohemond took the Cross with the intention of plundering and conquering Greek lands.
He gathered a Norman army, perhaps one of the finest in the crusading host, at the head of which he crossed the Adriatic Sea, and penetrated to Constantinople along the route he had tried to follow in 1082–1084. He was careful to observe a "correct" attitude towards Alexius, and when he arrived at Constantinople in April 1097 he did homage to the emperor. He may have negotiated with Alexius about a principality at Antioch; if he did so, he had little encouragement. From Constantinople to Antioch, Bohemond was the real leader of the First Crusade; and it says much for his leadership that the First Crusade succeeded in crossing Asia Minor, which the Crusade of 1101, the Second Crusade in 1147, and the Third Crusade in 1189 failed to accomplish.[37]
The Emperor's daughter, Anna Comnena, leaves a good portrait of him in her Alexiad; she met him for the first time when she was fourteen, and was quite fascinated by him. She left no similar portrait of any other Crusader prince. Of Bohemond, she wrote:
Now [Bohemond] was such as, to put it briefly, had never before been seen in the land of the Romans [that is, Greeks], be he either of the barbarians or of the Greeks (for he was a marvel for the eyes to behold, and his reputation was terrifying). Let me describe the barbarian's appearance more particularly – he was so tall in stature that he overtopped the tallest by nearly one cubit, narrow in the waist and loins, with broad shoulders and a deep chest and powerful arms. And in the whole build of the body he was neither too slender nor overweighted with flesh, but perfectly proportioned and, one might say, built in conformity with the canon of Polycleitus... His skin all over his body was very white, and in his face the white was tempered with red. His hair was yellowish, but did not hang down to his waist like that of the other barbarians; for the man was not inordinately vain of his hair, but had it cut short to the ears. Whether his beard was reddish, or any other colour I cannot say, for the razor had passed over it very closely and left a surface smoother than chalk... His blue eyes indicated both a high spirit and dignity; and his nose and nostrils breathed in the air freely; his chest corresponded to his nostrils and by his nostrils...the breadth of his chest. For by his nostrils nature had given free passage for the high spirit which bubbled up from his heart. A certain charm hung about this man but was partly marred by a general air of the horrible... He was so made in mind and body that both courage and passion reared their crests within him and both inclined to war. His wit was manifold and crafty and able to find a way of escape in every emergency. In conversation he was well informed, and the answers he gave were quite irrefutable. This man who was of such a size and such a character was inferior to the Emperor alone in fortune and eloquence and in other gifts of nature.
A politique, Bohemond was resolved to engineer the enthusiasm of the crusaders to his own ends; and when his nephew Tancred left the main army at Heraclea Cybistra, and attempted to establish a footing in Cilicia, the movement may have been already intended as a preparation for Bohemond's eastern principality. Bohemond was the first to get into position before Antioch (October 1097), and he took a great part in the siege of the city, beating off the Muslim attempts at relief from the east, and connecting the besiegers on the west with the port of St Simeon and the Genoese ships which lay there.[37]
The capture of Antioch was due to his connection with Firouz, one of the commanders in the city; but he would not bring matters to an issue until the possession of the city was assured him (May 1098), under the terror of the approach of Kerbogha with a great army of relief, and with a reservation in favour of Alexius, if Alexius should fulfill his promise to aid the crusaders. But Bohemond was not secure in the possession of Antioch, even after its surrender and the defeat of Kerbogha; he had to make good his claims against Raymond of Toulouse, who championed the rights of Alexius. He obtained full possession in January 1099, and stayed in the neighbourhood of Antioch to secure his position, while the other crusaders moved southward to the capture of Jerusalem.[37]
He came to Jerusalem at Christmas 1099, and had Dagobert of Pisa elected as Patriarch, perhaps in order to check the growth of a strong Lotharingian power in the city. It might seem that Bohemond was destined to found a great principality in Antioch, which would dwarf Jerusalem; he had a fine territory, a good strategic position and a strong army. But he had to face two great forces—the Byzantine Empire, which claimed the whole of his territories and was supported in its claim by Raymond of Toulouse, and the strong Muslim principalities in the north-east of Syria. Against these two forces he failed.[37]
Wars between Antioch and the Byzantine Empire[edit]
The town of Malatia, which guarded one of the Cilician Gates through the Taurus Mountains in the period after the First Crusade, had been by 1100 captured by an Armenian soldier of fortune. Reports were received that the Malik Ghazi Danishmend (Danishmend Emir), Ghazi Gümüştekin of Sivas, was preparing an expedition to capture Malatia, and the Armenians sought help from Bohemond.
Afraid to weaken his forces at Antioch, but not wishing to avoid the chance to extend his domain northwards, Bohemond in August 1100, marched north with only 300 knights and a small force of foot soldiers. Failing to send scouting parties they were ambushed by the Turks, and completely encircled at the Battle of Melitene. Bohemond managed to send one soldier to seek help from Baldwin of Edessa, but was captured and laden with chains, was confined in prison in Neo-Caesarea (modern Niksar). He languished in prison until 1103.
Hearing of Bohemond's capture, Alexius I, incensed that Bohemond had broken his sacred oath made in Constantinople and kept Antioch for himself, offered to redeem the Norman commander and ransom Bohemond for 260,000 dinars, if Ghazi Gumushtakin would hand the prisoner over to Byzantium. When Kilij Arslan I, the Seljuk overlord of the Emir, heard of the proposed payment, he demanded half, or threatened to attack. Bohemond proposed instead a ransom of 130,000 dinars paid just to the Emir. The bargain was concluded and Ghazi and Bohemond exchanged oaths of friendship. Ransomed in 1103 by Baldwin of Edessa, he returned in triumph to Antioch in August 1103.
His nephew Tancred, who for three years and taken his uncle's place, had during that time attacked the Byzantines and added Tarsus, Adana and Massissa in Cilicia, but was now deprived of his lordship by Bohemond's return. Buoyed by Bohemond's return, the northern Franks over the summer of 1103 attacked Ridwan of Aleppo in order to gain supplies and compelled him to pay tribute. Meanwhile, Raymond had established himself in Tripoli with the aid of Alexius, and was able to check the expansion of Antioch to the south, and so early in 1104, Baldwin and Bohemond passed Aleppo to move eastward and attack Harran.
But in heading an attack on Harran he was severely defeated at Balak, near Rakka on the Euphrates (see Battle of Harran). The defeat was decisive; it made impossible the great eastern principality which Bohemond had contemplated. It was followed by a Greek attack on Cilicia; and despairing of his own resources, in late 1104 Bohemond returned to Europe for reinforcements in order to defend his position.[37] It is a matter of historical debate how far his "crusade" to be directed against the Byzantine empire was to gain the backing and indulgences of pope Paschal II. Either way he enthralled audiences across France with gifts of relics from the Holy Land and tales of heroism while fighting the infidel, gathering a large army in the process. Henry I of England famously prevented him from landing on English shores, so great was his pull expected to be on the English nobility. His newfound status won him the hand of Constance, the daughter of the French king, Philip I. Of this marriage wrote Abbot Suger:
Bohemond came to France to seek by any means he could the hand of the Lord Louis' sister Constance, a young lady of excellent breeding, elegant appearance and beautiful face. So great was the reputation for valour of the French kingdom and of the Lord Louis that even the Saracens were terrified by the prospect of that marriage. She was not engaged since she had broken off her agreement to wed Hugh, count of Troyes, and wished to avoid another unsuitable match. The prince of Antioch was experienced and rich both in gifts and promises; he fully deserved the marriage, which was celebrated with great pomp by the bishop of Chartres in the presence of the king, the Lord Louis, and many archbishops, bishops and noblemen of the realm.
His son was
Dazzled by his success, Bohemond resolved to use his army of 34,000 men, not to defend Antioch against the Greeks, but to attack Alexius.[38] He did so; but Alexius, aided by the Venetians, proved too strong, and Bohemond had to submit to a humiliating peace (the Treaty of Devol, 1108), by which he became the vassal of Alexius, consented to receive his pay, with the title of sebastos, and promised to cede disputed territories and to admit a Greek patriarch into Antioch. Henceforth Bohemond was a broken man. He died six months later without returning to the East,[39] and was buried at Canosa in Apulia, in 1111.[37]
Bohemond I in literature and media[edit]
The anonymous Gesta Francorum is written by one of Bohemond's followers; and The Alexiad of Anna Comnena is a primary authority for the whole of his life.[37] A 1924 biography exists by Yewdale. See also the Gesta Tancredi by Ralph of Caen, which is a panegyric of Bohemond's second-in-command Tancred. His career is discussed by B von Kügler, Bohemund und Tancred (1862); while L von Heinemann, Geschichte der Normannen in Sicilien und Unteritalien (1894), and R. Röhricht, Geschichte des ersten Kreuzzuges (1901), and Geschichte das Königreichs Jerusalem (1898), may also be consulted for his history.[37] The only major biography that exists in English is "Tancred : a study of his career and work in their relation to the First Crusade and the establishment of the Latin states in Syria and Palestine" by Robert Lawrence Nicholson. Details of his pre-crusade career can found in Geoffrey Malaterra's Deeds of Count Roger....
Count Bohemund by Alfred Duggan (1964) is an historical novel concerning the life of Bohemund and its events up to the fall of Jerusalem to the crusaders. Bohemond also appears in the historical novel Silver Leopard by F. Van Wyck Mason (1955), the short story "The Track of Bohemond" in the collection The Road of Azrael by Robert E. Howard (1979), and in the fantastical novel Pilgermann by Russell Hoban (1983).
The historical fiction novel Wine of Satan (1949) written by Laverne Gay gives an embellished accounting of the life of Bohemond.

It turned out, however, they projected it correctly, based on data they were seeing and we weren't. It's likely the same has been done with the absentee ballots in MT.
Buck up. We survived Carter....we'll get through this, as well.
Yes, they were... Nothing like Dems in power to get the anti-government sentiment up.
BTW, Fitzcarraldo is a great film.
I just don't want to end up with Joe Lieberman sitting on the Supereme Court, that would be tragic.
[[Real sucky day and week so far. But we have to keep our chins up and go on. Looking forward to 2008 now. Now we can sit back and watch the Dems screw up!]]
While I share your forward looking and positive approach, reading the dour posts of 'some' in here, they are ready to fold up their tents and retreat.
The dems can no longer simply say no and obstruct, and I think they will overplay their hand and try to push a far left agenda. If they do, there will be a backlash in 2008.
Class act. Republicans are the adults in the political system.
Sorry. I've ending my depression period and am moving into my anger period. I couldn't pick out the GOP clown that ran for governor here in Arizona if he was standing in a crowd of one. I'm not one of those Americans who surrender without a fight. Losing has become an America tradition again like it was in the 60s.
The absentee ballots in at least Yellowstone County, Montana were counted FIRST, not last. While there may be a handful of late military absentee ballots trickling in, most absentee ballots are likely counted. All that should be left are provisional ballots and those few military absentees.
This race is over.
Ha! Don't worry about Lieberman. First, he'd never get nominated by Bush. Second, the Dems wouldn't let him accept it, since a GOP govenor in CT would appoint a Republican senator in the interim.
Thats the dems problem lately. They allways overplay their hand.
And their base is going to be pushing them every day to overplay it again.
Heck, all of my stages of grief (for lack of a better term) usually run together after an election. I'm still depressed. I'm still pissed (as you can readily see in the blogpage I've linked to in my tagline). Soon, though, we've got to let it all go and look forward to 2008. We have to get clean, qualified candidates who will be willing to put it all on the line and take the Dems on. We can't do that if we let this disappointment linger forever.
"WIMPY GOP wimps out again!"
It isn't wimpy. It is accepting reality. Everyone on here with any sense has know this race was over for over a day. We don't need him pulling an Al Gore. Were he to have any chance of winning or were there some major irregularities i'd be all over him challengeing but this race isn't in play. Remember that 3000 votes in a state the size of Montana is tough to overcome. I admire Burns for doing the class thing.
there is no "dignity and class" in accepting voter fraud. just weakness and stupidity. I am not saying there was any in MT, but there was in VA for sure - and we caved there.
with the current system we have, we can't win a close statewide election. if we don't win by enough of a margin to stop the last minute "push" of Dem votes, then we lose. and if we don't challenge that system - somewhere, sometime - then that becomes a de-facto part of every election that our candidate has to overcome, to win.
That's why I'm over my disappointment. I laugh when people stand around saying we shouldn't point fingers and try to lay blame. We should figure out what went wrong and fix the problem. Well, I think pointing fingers and laying blame would be a part of that process. The problem I see with the GOP coming back within the next 20 years is that, I see very few, if any, GOP leaders out there. The GOP is switching gears back into their submissive mode and will view Nancy Pelosi and Dingy Harry Reid as their leaders.
There are not 21 thousand military votes out still. That is an internet legend. If there were Burns would not have conceded!
Ho hum.....
Where are all the voter intimidation, and faulty diebold machine stories for this election?
Exactly. Conceding also doesn't change anything. If they suddenly find a few thousand extra votes for Burns, he wins. In the very unlikely event that happens, Burns would serve the next term, and Tester could not cry that Burns has already conceded and try to get sworn in even though Burns was certified as wining the race. Refusing to concede at this point just makes you look like Al Gore.
And yes, weird things do happen. About a decade ago in San Antonio, a judicial race was reversed when the votes were canvassed a week after the election. Either two precincts had not been added to the totals, or they had been added twice, and the error was not discovered for a week. The original "winner" had received a concession, and was on a cruise ship, when he got the word that he didn't win after all.
Ehrlich really hurt. I live in MD and we went
from Glendinning(D) speniding to oblivion to
balance budget and deficit.
Exit pols said he was too close to BUSH
and we get OMALLEY.
at least we are not whining about hanging chads, and retracting concession speeches. Time to lock, and reload for 2008.
This time we better make sure the moderates and the Independents are included and are a part of our new agenda. We cannot win without them. They sent a message to us this time - and it was "Don't ignore us". We thought we could win with just Republicans ONLY - the Democrats found that out when they realized in 2000 and 2004 they could not win ONLY with the Democrat vote. The moderates and Indpendents in 2000 and 2004 voted Republican most. This time they appealed to the moderates and Independents and it worked for them. If we think we can ignore the moderates and independents we will lose in 2008 again as well. The Christian right has to understand this or they will fail again!
Bush did it? I don't think so. I think it was the group of Congressional leaders that took over after the leaders of that '94 election left.
It WAS called yesterday.
I hope I am too!
Years from now, the grandchildren of current Freepers will still be reciting this myth.
Why can't Levin's group file suit to have the military votes counted?
Admit it. Being miserable makes you happy.
I'm with you. I'm only a couple of exits down I-70W from you. Feelin' kinda lonely out here in Bartlett country. I wonder who'll replace him when he's through. He's in his 80s now, I believe.
A lot of people who are saying that Mitt Romney is the wave of the future might want to look at the last two governor races in the red state of Arizona when Salmon and Munsil took on Napolitano. There are a lot of anti-religious bigots in this country. Just ask Matt and Len. Once the voters are told of Romney's religious preference, he's toast. It will be exploited by the religion (except for Islam) haters in the MSM.
Maybe that's the total for the entire nation. It's obviously not the total for Montana -- the entire state population is less than a million; obviously, the number of people in the military, and serving overseas, and who voted, and whose votes haven't come in and been counted yet is not over two percent of the entire number of warm bodies.
Anybody who actually thinks for a moment instead of parroting something they (mis)heard knows that this figure is ridiculous.
I am in Barlet countty. Want to do Duck Hunting?
"Can I get me a huntin' license here.....?"
If you're into fishing......that's another story.
A rout.
I was referring to Bartlets opponent.
At leat we won that seat.
I bet he is gonna go on a bender to end all benders now
I'm relatively new to the Western part of MD, having grown up in Harford Co. I guess they're a political family?
Burns should have never run for reelection in the first place. If Denny Rehberg were the nominee, Tester would not have come close to winning the race.
Today while driving down the highway in my big pickup truck with my BURNS bumper sticker on the back, minding my own business, a little economy car zipped past me going way over the speed limit, honked a few times and everyone in the car flipped me the bird. Two yound adult males and an old guy in the back seat with some kind of French beret on.
I was at a loss as to why anyone would flip me off until I saw the Jon Tester bumper sticker on their foreign import. A good sampling of Tester's constiuents, I think.
There is something so MEAN about the dems...they are despicable.....and I feel like fighting, too. :)
The guy in the backseat with the French beret sounds like it might have been Tester.
haha ...naw, I don't think so. Tester was interviewed by some info chick on the radio and he was at the barber. She asked him if he was going to get rid of the flat top hair cut now that he got elected. He said he was going to go for a more "senatorial style" haircut now. Not his exact words but close.
There are not 21K military votes yet to be counted. It's over. That was just a misreading that somehow spread around this forum as truth. If you think about it, it's an extremely high figure for such a small state.
It will take 4 to 6 years because we need to move out all the dinosaurs in the Republican party leadership from the locals all the way up to the national leadership...

Soul & Motown Tribute Night
Tony Mowbray is the npower Championship Manager of the Month. He led Boro to second in the table with two wins and two draws from four league games.
Former Charlton Athletic boss Alan Curbishley chairs the npower Manager of the Month judging panel. He said: "Middlesbrough have continued their great start to this season as Mowbray's men remain unbeaten in the npower Championship.
"With Boro not conceding a single goal this month, I am sure they will prove hard to beat this campaign."
Mowbray won the same monthly award with West Brom in September 2007 - and the Baggies went on to lift the Championship title.
Emma Collins, npower's head of sponsorship said: "Middlesbrough remain the only Championship side yet to suffer defeat this season so it's only right that Tony picks up this month's award.
"He has got his team superbly organised and four consecutive clean sheets is a great achievement.
"I'd like to congratulate Tony and the team on behalf of npower, and wish them the best of luck for the rest of the season."
The judging panel comprises former Charlton Athletic manager Alan Curbishley, Sky Sports Football League expert Peter Beagrie, Football League chief operating officer Andy Williamson, BBC Sport's Mark Clemmit, League Managers Association deputy CEO Olaf Dixon and npower head of sponsorship Emma Collins.
Skipper Matthew Bates has also been named npower Championship Player of the Month.
Bates led Boro to clean sheets in all four of their league outings, helping them to second in the Championship after two wins and two draws.
Boro boss Tony Mowbray said: "Matthew has played an integral role as captain and central defender in a team that has kept four clean sheets during September.
"Such an achievement is always a collective effort, of course, but Matthew has led by example and richly deserves this honour."
Sky Sports' Football League expert and former Boro midfielder Peter Beagrie sits on the npower Player of the Month judging panel.
He said: "Matthew has had an outstanding start to the season, marshalling the Middlesbrough defence.
"It's fantastic to see him playing so well after overcoming several career-threatening injuries. His performances have epitomised his drive and desire."
Emma Collins, npower's head of sponsorship, said: "Matthew has been a rock at the heart of Middlesbrough's defence this season.
"To go a whole month without conceding a goal is a very impressive feat and he deserves great credit for his performances in the heart of defence.
"I'd like to congratulate Matthew on behalf of npower, and wish him the best of luck for the rest of the season."
The judging panel comprises Sky Sports Football League expert Peter Beagrie, Football League head of communications John Nagle, BBC Sport's Mark Clemmit and npower head of sponsorship Emma Collins.

Was welcomed as an old friend, and pampered by an expert. Dinner reservations were made, my wine uncorked and I was given the run of the parlor and dining room. My room was on the ground floor, so convenient to the fridge, coffee pot and wine glasses. Bed was so comfortable, bathroom spotlessly clean, bathrobe and towels of quality, and room was nicely decorated in Victorian style. Breakfast was an egg Benedict with sauté asparagus,,with fresh fruit, muffin, and juice. Enjoyed my stay, hope to be back.

Nearly a year ago we booked all 3 rooms at the Inn for our wedding party. The suite was ideal for the groomsmen to get decked out; followed by an after wedding celebration with champagne with 2 of our out of town guests; and finally as our romantic wedding night suite! My daughters were bridesmaids and in the 2nd upstairs room which was appointed beautifully. My elderly parents were very comfortable in the king bedroom downstairs. The sitting room was adjoining and was ideal for our family gathering the night before the wedding as well as the following morning. Rita's breakfast was delicious ~ she is a superb hostess! My father fell ill the day we all checked out; Rita was so helpful keeping all of us calm as we hurried to get my folks on the road. She is definitely a person who goes the extra mile to make everyone comfortable!! I so appreciated her dinner suggestion the night before the wedding ~ we had an excellent meal and service at Bricks. Rita helped us order a set of the ultra cozy sheets used at the Inn and we have been enjoying them!! We highly recommend the Albert Shafsky House! ~ Carol & Michael ~
Risposta del proprietario

We stayed in the ground floor room. Although the house sits on a busy corner, we totally relaxed and found it to be quite peaceful. The breakfasts are yummy, especially the apple pancakes. Being dog lovers, we were happy to meet Lily. Check out their sheets!
Risposta del proprietario
As always we like to hear feedback from our guests. Thanks for the mention of the sheets which love as well! Preparing breakfast is my favorite thing to do so I'm glad the Apple Pancakes were to your liking. Hope to see you again.

Although we stayed for only 1 night, it was a wonderful experience. Rita and Lily were the best hosts. Lily did bark at us in the beginning, she was a good friend in 5 minutes. I highly recommend. Also, Placerville is such a nice place. It was such an easy walk over to the main street with the Galleries and restaurants. We love to travel and are active seniors, whatever seniors means.
Risposta del proprietario
Thank you for your kind words. We hope you will have the opportunity to stay with us again and enjoy our beautiful little area in El Dorado County!

We wanted to go north for the weekend but everything was booked so we decided to head east. What an unexpected pleasure. We arrived late but Rita was ready for us with wine and a room that was pleasant and very comfortable. We settled in for an excellent evening and even though the room was on a busy street corner we had no trouble falling asleep. Breakfast the next morning was excellent and Rita was a perfect host with suggestions about what to see and places to visit. The bottom line....we plan to return for future visits.
Risposta del proprietario
Thank you for your very kind words. We appreciate hearing from our guests about their stay and what they enjoyed about the B&B. El Dorado County is a beautiuful place and we encourage you to return for yet another visit and hopefully new adventures!

Vice President Biden was busy shuttling this week from Japan to China, trying to defuse tensions over a new air-defense zone that China has set up over disputed islands in the East China Sea.
To many observers, it may have appeared that China had overreached by unilaterally declaring the zone, and that Beijing had to back down when the United States and Japan continued to send in military flights without filing the flight plans that China demanded.
But, as described in a talk by Toshi Yoshihara, a U.S. Naval War College expert on China's maritime strategy, China's move is part of a calculated, incremental strategy. The goal: to exert naval and air dominance over much of the Pacific, replacing American primacy - and to get other countries in the region to recognize that dominance without a war.

Steve's wife Allison Moorer, also performing, is no stranger to the region either, having grown up in a musical family in Mobile, Alabama.

Marksville native Little Walter Jacobs, the inventor of amplified Blues harmonica and the most influential performer on his instrument of all time, hasn't always received recognition for his Creole roots. With this classic hard-driving Blues show that will change. James Cotton is a harmonica legend and Little Walter's peer in every sense. When they inducted Little Walter into the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame, James Cotton got the call to pay tribute and he will do the same for Louisiana.

The connections between the traditional music of Francophone Canada and Louisiana are undeniable and largely unexplored. This show brings together stalwarts on both side of that line. De Temps Antan are at the pinnacle of Quebecois music which features virtuoso fiddler André Brunet, who performed during the opening of the Vancouver Olympic Games before millions of viewers, along with guitarist and musical scholar Eric Beaudry and master accordionist Pierre-Luc DuPuis. They will collaborate with top Louisiana artists Cedric Watson, Anna Laura Edmiston and David Greely.
If you haven't heard Zigaboo Modeliste, King of the Funky Drums', incredibly tight and genre-defining drumming on the original New Orleans recordings of "The Meters," or the pivotal 1976 "Wild Tchoupitoulas" release that brought New Orleans Mardi Gras music to the world, you've undoubtedly heard it on one of the countless songs on which it's been sampled over the last several decades. As a founding member of The Meters, he was part of the circle of musicians that revolved in large part around the Neville Brothers. But his drumming led him out of that circle as well, to tour with Keith Richards and The Rolling Stones, among many others.
This show, with Zigaboo's hard driving seven-piece funk band, will be the perfect closer to the season on May 9 at 7 p.m. at Central School Theatre and May 10 at 8 p.m. at AcA's Devin Moncus Theater.
