Taj Mahal was born in Harlem, New York, on May 17, 1942, and established a career as one of the world's premier blues artists. He's explored many genres from regions around the world, including the West Indies, India and Latin America, and recorded scores of albums, including Giant Step, Music Keeps Me Together and Hanapepe Dream. A Grammy Award winner, Mahal celebrated 40 years in the biz with Maestro.
"There was something about the blues that just full and wholly knocked me out... Instead of popular music creating me, I programmed myself for what I'm interested in."
"To me the music is sacred. Blues, gospel, jazz, Latin music, whatever the style, this stuff should flourish from generation to generation."
"We spoke several dialects in my house—Southern, Caribbean, African—and we heard dialects from eastern and western Europe."
"I wanted to pay homage to both of these wonderful people [Zora Neale Hurston and Langston Hughes] by representing them a generation and a half later—and at the same time have it loose enough to still be me. The music had to be in touch with the old timers, and the new timers as well."
"Ry [Cooder] was one person I connected big-time with because he always heard the music. It wasn't the swagger or the stagger or the dark glasses or the pork pie hat or the look or the way you held your saxophone."
"We're gonna start out real smooth and take it to where we can't hardly stand it."
"I don't look at time in a linear sense. I view things in griot time, where a musician from five centuries ago can still sound fresh today."
"I don't see myself as stuck over here, and the natives are over there. I am the natives."
"The one thing I've always demanded of the records I've made is that they be danceable."
"I didn't want to fall into the trap of complacency. I wanted to keep pushing the musical ideas I had about jazz, music from Africa and the Caribbean. I wanted to explore the connections between different kinds of music."
Blues/world music artist Taj Mahal was born Henry Saint Clair Fredericks in Harlem, New York, on May 17, 1942, to a musical family; his father was a jazz pianist/composer and his mother was a singer and teacher. The family moved to Springfield, Massachusetts during Fredericks's youth, and he grew up in a rich, diverse cultural environment. A singer, he went on to learn a variety of instruments, including the piano, clarinet and harmonica, taking up the guitar and bass as well and learning blues styles.
Debut Album
He earned a degree from the University of Massachusetts in 1964, focusing on agriculture, and worked with bands, including the Rising Sons with Ry Cooder. Fredericks took on the performance name Taj Mahal after the moniker came to him in a dream, and he made his solo debut in 1968 with an album of the same name. The Natch'l Blues (1968) and Giant Step (1969) soon followed.
Acclaimed Genre Fusions
A statuesque, emotional presence onstage who feels the music wholly in his body, Mahal has become known for exploring a wide range of genres and earned a reputation as a musicologist with attention paid to the cultural origins of song, including his own Caribbean and African-American/Southern roots (captured in his song "West Indian Revelation" for instance) as well as other communities from around the world. His music has incorporated the sounds of the Pacific Isles, South Asia and West and East Africa, among others.
Mahal has released dozens of albums over the course of his career, including Happy to Be Just Like I Am (1971), Music Fuh Ya' (Music Para Tu) (1977), Taj (1987), Dancing the Blues (1993) and Mkutano (2005). He has also recorded work for children on the Music for Little People label, such as Shake Sugaree (1988), Peace Is the World Smiling (1989) and Smilin' Island of Song (1992).
Mahal wed Inshirah Geter in 1976 and by the '80s had settled in Hawaii. His works influenced by his adopted home state include Sacred Island (1998) and Hanapepe Dream (2003), performing on both recordings with The Hula Blues Band.
Film and Stage
Mahal has also worked in film, appearing as an actor in Sounder (1972) and Sounder: Part Two (1976), composing the musical scores for both as well as for the 1977 film Brothers. He later made his mark on Broadway, composing a score for the 1991 play Mule Bone, written by Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston decades before its contemporary stage debut.
Grammy Wins and 'Maestro'
By 2013, Mahal had won two Grammy Awards, both for best contemporary blues album—1997's Señor Blues and 2000's Shoutin' in Key: Taj Mahal and the Phantom Blues Band Live. In 2008 he released the album Maestro, celebrating 40 years as a recording artist and working with an all-star roster that included Ben Harper, Ziggy Marley and Angélique Kidjo. Mahal followed up in 2009 with American Horizon, featuring Mexican/Californian band Los Cenzontles and Los Lobos musician David Hidalgo.

Musical Monikers
When musicians land big fame, there typically comes a moment of reinvention in which the "rock star" identity is born. This new persona often requires a new name, a way to differentiate between the private and public versions of themselves. Musical monikers take different forms, from the simple, last-name changes aimed at boosting celebrity appeal—like Steven Tyler—to the glamorized version of a childhood nickname—like Jay-Z. Musicians' nicknames and aliases tend to take on an identity all their own over time, often becoming as full of personality as the artists they represent.

Name Changers
In entertainment, where the line between fiction and reality is often blurry, names are a crucial part of a celebrity's image. Stage names are often chosen to make an actor or musician's name easier to pronounce or remember, or simply to make it sounds more attractive. Here are famous celebrities who have changed their names.

Now that Barton is owned by Sazerac, I was curious if the mashbill for VOB is unique or one of the BT mashbills?
Now that Barton is owned by Sazerac, I was curious if the mashbill for VOB is unique or one of the BT mashbills?
I'm confident it continues to be whatever it was. I haven't seen any evidence of BT changing anything at Barton except sprucing it up, opening it up to tourists, and adjusting the distilling schedule. Otherwise things are unchanged. Harlen Wheatley now has overall Master Distiller jurisdiction but Ken Pierce, longtime Chief Chemist at Barton, oversees things day-to-day. There has been talk that one of these days he will be named Master Distiller, but there's nothing official.

"Whiskey Don't Keep."
Sazerac bought the Constellation properties first to get warehouses, second to get brands, and got the distillery as part of the deal. That's why many of us were worried they would mothball it. When they did their thorough evaluation, they decided they liked the fact that the Barton whiskeys were different from the Buffalo Trace whiskeys and decided that was a good thing. VOB especially seems like something to not mess with except to distribute more widely and make even more money from. It is phenomenally successful in Kentucky and there is no reason that success can't be duplicated elsewhere.

"Whiskey Don't Keep."
Three of us went to their tourist center a couple of weeks ago while in KY for the Sampler. For the tasting, they poured VOB 86 and 1792 (very generous pours I might add). Since I'd only had the 100 proof VOB before, I wasn't sure what to expect from the 86, but ended up being pleasantly surprised. It's a very nice whiskey so I hope they leave it alone.
Lead me not into temptation - I can find the way myself
I think they will, but I'm often wrong.
Col. Charles K. "Crotchety" Cowdery
"Whiskey Don't Keep."
I had a bottle of VOB 86 that was given to me I was put off by it at first but I kept going back to it. By the time I got about 1/4 to 1/2 way into the bottle (not in one night) I started to like this stuff and started going back to that bottle more often. It soon became a favorite. Why I didn't pick up a couple while in KY I don't know.

With three young daughters, exercise has been tougher and tougher to come by. Lately, I have been into hiking with the entire family. I have always liked to do off-road hiking, but our current stroller doesn't function well or safely enough for rugged terrain. Does anybody recommend a sport utility stroller that can safely fill my off-road needs?
I haven't really hiked with a stroller - we put our kids into backpacks on our back. REI has some great ones. I bet they might know what kind of stroller would work though. You could always call them! I'm envisioning something LIGHT so that it's not a total feat to get it up a hill!
Thanks Julie... I will look into REI (which also happens to be the initials of one of my daughters so I am biased to that anyway)! They have gotten too big for our backs, so that isn't an option for us now, but they aren't ready to hike along with us on foot either. Great advice!
What a wonderful fall activity! I hope that you will share with the group what you find on your shopping trip, I'm guessing that there are more that would be interested in what you find!
Still looking Jess... the REI stroller looks like the best one, although none of them are cheap! I feel guilty worrying about cost when it comes to the safety of my kids, but financial reality is what it is! I will keep you apprised and let you know when we FINALLY come to a decision.

PLYMOUTH — The sweltering sun didn't seem to deter either car buffs or barbecue fans Saturday as a crowd gathered behind Oliver Ford. Attendees were there to play in cornhole tournaments, check out the endless rows of impressively polished cars, and enjoy some summer barbecue. Proceeds from the day's event went to benefit St. Michael's school. "We give to all of the schools in our community, and this event is for St. Michael's," said Jennifer Houin.
LAKEVILLE — Despite the fact that the ISTEP (Indiana Statewide Testing for Educational Progress) 2011 scores for the Union-North United School Corporation went up, administrators are not satisfied with the results. Corporation–wide, the scores from testing of grades 3-8 went from 70.8 percent passing to 72.4 percent in the combined English and math data. A long-range plan to raise student achievement that has been in the works for several weeks was presented to the school board as a first draft at the last board meeting.
The Antiquarian and Historical Society of Culver is once again partnering with the Bike Barn, 103 E. Lake Shore Drive, this time to present a tour-by-bicycle of the east shore of Lake Maxinkuckee, on Saturday, July 23, at 9:30 a.m.
One of Culver's least -known historical monuments will celebrate its anniversary later this month as plans begin to bring it more recognition. Located on state-owned property at the southeast corner of State Road 10 and Queen Road, the hand-carved stone commemorates the arrival of Marshall County's first party of European settlers 175 years ago, on the afternoon of July 26, 1836.
PLYMOUTH — James Hackworth and Jacob Eaton delivered a strong one-two punch on the mound for Post 27, and Plymouth's batters came through in their last time at the plate with four hits for three runs to break a 2-2 tie and claim a 5-2 sectional-opening win over visiting Valparaiso Post 94 at Bill Nixon Field Friday. The two teams will face off again in the two-team, double-elimination tourney today at 1 p.m. with a potential third game scheduled to follow directly. "Any time as far as double-elimination, winning the first one is so important," said Plymouth Post 27 coach Mike Hite.
Plymouth's Nate Kolter beat LaVille's Zach Gurtner in a playoff on Hole 10 at Round Barn Golf Club in Rochester to win the Boys 14-15 division of a Marshall County Junior Golf Tour event. Kolter and Gurtner both shot 80 at the Par 72 course to go one-two, respectively, at the event, while Culver's Trent Elliott finished third in the division three strokes back.
A recently-returned couple whose presence here has enhanced Marshall County's medical offerings spent some time last Thursday discussing their journey with Culver's Kiwanis Club at the Yacht Club restaurant on Jefferson Street.
ARGOS — It all began when a group of casual acquaintances in the Marshall County area decided to take a needlepoint class together in Delphi in the early 1980s. After taking the class, they decided to meet once a month to complete their project, a needlework Christmas tree. The group still meets today, but without one important member: Margaret Sherwood, who passed away last August from complications of a stroke.
PLYMOUTH — Linda Espich went through high school with everyone expecting her to become a nurse. To her parent's shock, Espich announced after graduation that she wanted to teach. Espich attended Indiana University, majored in general studies, switching later to elementary education, and started teaching at Washington Elementary School right after she graduated when a teacher there left to have a baby. "I've never made a resume — I've never had to," said Espich. "The principal asked me if I wanted her job, and I said yes. I've had the same job for 40 years!"
PLYMOUTH — Sharon Cudney, assistant activity director at Miller's Merry Manor, Plymouth, fears that the World War II experiences of her patients will be lost forever. Two residents share their stories: George Born and William "Bill" Whitsell. George Born, 86, was born in Plymouth. He quit school in his junior year and worked for the Pennsylvania Railroad for six months before being drafted in the Army. George took his basic training at Camp Wheeler, Ga., and was immediately shipped out to Germany with the First Infantry Division of the 26th Infantry Regiment.

As of Monday, July 22, 2013
© Copyright 2014
Gwinnett Daily Post
LONDON - Prince William's wife Kate was in labor at a London hospital on Monday as public anticipation over the birth of their first child, who will be third in line to the British throne, reached fever pitch.
The royal couple, officially known as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, travelled by car to St. Mary's Hospital in west London before dawn and entered through a back door to avoid media camped outside the main entrance.
Kate is due to give birth to the child at the private Lindo wing of the hospital, where her husband was born to the late Princess Diana in 1982.
Kate and William, both aged 31, met when they were students at St. Andrews University and were married in April 2011 in a spectacular wedding broadcast around the world.
The royal birth has provoked a similar frenzy, with national and international media keeping up a deluge of speculative reports throughout Monday from outside the hospital.
The birth will be announced in the traditional way with an envelope containing the baby's details taken from the hospital to Queen Elizabeth's London residence, Buckingham Palace, where the news will be posted on a board outside the main gates.
"Things are progressing as normal. It wasn't an emergency," a royal spokeswoman said.
Prime Minister David Cameron said it was an exciting time.
"Best wishes to them, a very exciting occasion and the whole country is excited with them. Everyone's hoping for the best," Cameron told the BBC.
Crowds were also gathered outside Buckingham Palace.
"We love anything and everything about the royal family. As Canadians we really respect the queen," said Rosch Neboulsi, a tourist from Alberta, Canada, who was standing outside the palace gates with his family.
The baby will arrive at a time when the royal family is riding a wave of popularity. An Ipsos Mori poll last week showed 77 percent of Britons were in favor of remaining a monarchy over a republic, close to its best-ever level of support.
The event seals a remarkable comeback for the House of Windsor, regenerated by the younger royals. The death of Princess Diana in 1997 had led to a dip in popularity amid accusations it was out of touch with modern Britain.
But last year's celebrations of Queen Elizabeth's 60th year on the throne showed the affection with which she is held by most of the population, despite a small but vocal Republican movement.
The royal birth might also help raise the national mood, battered by economic problems, unemployment, cuts in public spending and a rising gap between rich and poor.
The festive atmosphere has been heightened by a heatwave and a string of British sporting victories in tennis, rugby, cricket and cycling.
Royal supporter Terry Hutt, 78, who has waited outside the hospital for 12 days, acknowledged his joy over the imminent arrival.
"We've got a lovely married couple and baby will make three and they will be a family. It means everything to me, girl or boy, as they will be king or queen one day," said Hutt, dressed in a suit and hat emblazoned with Union Jacks.
The royal baby was also dominating headlines globally.
"You'd think it was the American royal family producing this baby," said Robert Lacey, royal historian and biographer.
Royal sources said Kate has planned a natural birth with William, a Royal Air Force search and rescue helicopter pilot, to be at her side. The royal couple do not know the baby's sex.
The child will be third in line to the throne regardless of gender behind grandfather Prince Charles and father William after Britain and 15 other Commonwealth nations agreed to change royal succession rules so males no longer take precedence.
"Fundamentally all of them have agreed in writing to this," Cameron said. "It would not be a problem."
Royal officials have confirmed the baby will be known as His or Her Highness Prince or Princess (name) of Cambridge. The name may not be announced immediately - it took more than a week for an announcement of William's name.
Bookmakers have a girl as the favorite with preferred names Alexandra, Victoria, Charlotte and Diana, in honor of William's mother, who died in a car crash in Paris in 1997. George is the favorite boy's name followed by James.
Queen Elizabeth will be among the first to be informed of the arrival of the baby, who will be delivered by Marcus Setchell, the queen's former gynecologist.
After the birth, commentators said Kate was expected to spend time at her parents' house in the village of Bucklebury, about 50 miles west of London, before eventually moving to London's Kensington Palace, William's childhood home.
Kate, whose ancestors were coal miners, has become hugely popular and a fashion icon, with her attire scrutinized and copied every time she steps out in public.
Scrutiny of Princess Diana's life and her death while pursued by paparazzi instilled a deep distaste for the media in William and he has done his best to shield his wife from such attention.
Analysts said any economic impact from the royal birth would be positive but limited, with no public holiday and purchases of souvenirs or alcohol to toast the baby likely to be the main boosts.
"Having said that there is a lot of international interest in the royal baby with high foreign media coverage, which does help to advertise the UK globally," said Howard Archer, economist from IHS Global Insight.
Not all Britons, however, were giddy over the event.
The website of the Guardian newspaper offered readers the option of clicking on a "Republican" prompt, removing all references to the royal birth from its pages.
The Republic movement said on its website that every child should be born equal.
"How can that be when one child is born above all others, destined for high office not because of merit or popular choice but because of their parents?" it said.

I think the biggest mistake is thinking the game needs saving at all.
People cry about no endgame, this is an ARPG, what ARPG has endgame that differs from D3? The only thing I see is endless dungeons, if this is your idea of an endgame then the conversation is over before it began.
People cry about no ladders. Woohoo, we get to restart character from level 1 to see who has less of a life.
People cry about PvP, Diablo has NEVER had actual PvP. EVER. D2 had asshats joining games, flagging, then hunting players just trying to farm. That is not PvP. Can PvP be done? Sure, but they are going to have to implement a HUGE DPS reduction in order to not make it a game of one hit kills. Quite frankly, arena is a retarded idea for PvP. I would have to have battlegrounds of some type. Lots of development time.
People cried about AH, even though it had little to no effect on them. It is being deleted. GG
Crying about AH made it so now we can't trade. GG
People cried about having to farm for legendaries, so now their drop rate has been increased (even though on beta right now they are still fairly rare) and this also results in, again, no trading! YAY!
Personally I think ROS is doing more to ruin the game than save it. No AH, No trading, No social interaction needed at all. Yet we still can't play offline. G fucking G.

posted a message on First, and most important, I love all of these ideas. But mostly, I think the first idea is by far the best.Posted in: Diablo III General Discussion
Beyond that, I think that even with these changes, if the "bonuses" aren't good enough, people will still opt for going straight DPS gemming. Do you want a ton of STR in your chest or a ton of health? If you go for a ton of health you gain the socket bonus of magic find! This is an easy choice, the barb takes strength 8 times out of 10. Killing faster is > than MF. Sure, MF increases the chance of getting better items, but killing faster has the same effect with the added bonus of things dying faster thus hurting you less.
I think what needs to be done first is a global nerf to how gems affect Weapons, and Armor. Reduce the armor bonuses by half, reduce the weapon bonuses to a third. After this you triple the number of sockets on weapons (1 socket transforms to 3, 2 sockets to 6) and double the sockets in armor.
What does this accomplish? You can still socket 6 rubies and get the same affect as 3 rubies right? Sure, you can. But you can also socket 3 rubies for the strength and 3 sockets for the health and still get the MF bonus. This is most important for weapons though. 3 sockets means you can stack 2 emeralds for the all impotant crit damage increase and add an amethyst for a little LoH or a diamond for some +dmg to elites.
What else does this accomplish though? What is the most important part of this change? 3-6 sockets in weapons and 2-6 sockets in armor opens up the future possibility for...... RUNEWORDS! Something current sockets really do not support.
On top of this, I think all 2 handed weapon across the board should be able to roll 2 sockets in the current system to keep on par with the bonus for dual wielding. This is something that has always bugged me and it needs to be fixed. -

posted a message on I think act bosses should have a significantly increased chance(50%+) to drop a legendary the first time you kill them in any difficulty. All torment counting as a single difficulty to negate cheesing.Posted in: Diablo III General Discussion
Beyond this I think mini bosses should have a slightly increased chance to drop a few (2-6) specific legendarys. For instance, Leoric would have a slightly better chance to drop a Leoric's Signet than anything else in the game. This chance would be, at most, like 10%. This way it is significant enough to be worth farming for these specific drops, but not significant enough where it will be something easily farmed. -

posted a message on Posted in: Diablo III General DiscussionQuote from maka
Quote from proletaria
I think it's important to keep in mind that, absent some kind of pvp, best in slot is most of the goal in terms of repeating the content. If best in slot dropped arbitrarily say, once a week, then most everyone would have exhausted any and all compelling reasons to keep playing and the vast majority of items in the game (99.9999%) would amount to worthless vendor trash. That would more or less render the entire notion of a game "economy," superfluous since exchange would be entirely a waste of one's time.
The problem is that no-one needs to reroll the same class. Ever.
Not happy with that, Blizzard decided to make it really disadvantageous for one to play with anything but their main character. How many people have you seen that have one lvl 60(50), and then a bunch of lowbies? That would be unthinkable in D2.
Hell, I have each class at 60 (so I can switch 'styles' if I'm bored), I don't use the AH, and even I'M bored with this game.
Bottom line: there's no reason for people to keep playing this game after they've geared each class. And by 'gear', I mean being able to farm low MP in Inferno.
Maybe there is no reason for YOU to keep playing after gearing each class for relatively ghetto content. But that doesn't mean NO ONE IN THE ENTIRE WORLD has a reason to keep playing. Stating there is no reason for anyone to keep going is simply dumb. You can't know what reason I or anyone else has to keep playing or not to keep playing. The only thing you can state with any degree of certainty is your own reasons for you to continue or not. -

I want to find a good build that is good for me I can easily do mp3 and me and my friends are doing mp5 ubers but my health dips quickly and sometimes hard to keep up but on aoe farming for the neph buff I dont have a problem. I would like to get more dps which comes with gear. I have 50 mill to spend on gear if that is what I need for the new build. I have seen the hota build and the wep throw build they both look interesting. I like how simple ww build is but just doesnt have the dps I would like. Anyone able to help me out.
barbie is megabich
So why don't you do some research on different builds, and try things in game instead of coming here begging for someone to do the work for you? People can tell you everything about the game and it doesn't matter until you find something that works for you. My DH build has me on MP6 without any issues and its a build I have never seen on another DH. Just because something works for someone else doesn't mean it will work for you. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Today's "jolly old elf," with his rotund belly, full beard and sack of toys evolved in a series of drawings by the cartoonist Thomas Nast, beginning in the 1870s. By the 1880s, when the Nast drawing at left was published in Harper's magazine, Santa had taken on his modern appearance.
Some authorities suggest that Nast based his drawings on Clement Clark Moore's description of Santa Claus in his poem, "A Visit from St. Nicholas." (Today, the poem is more often called "The Night Before Christmas.")
In earlier times, the holiday visitor we know today as Santa Claus came in different versions based on immigrant cultures and traditions. So it might be said that Nast created the American Santa.
Nast, who was born in Germany in 1848 and later lived in New Jersey and New York City, made his reputation is a political cartoonist. He gets credit for the images of Uncle Sam, the Republican elephant and the Democratic donkey.
You can learn more about Thomas Nast by following the links at the left.

ENCORE: Snowmine - BTR Live Studio [ep112]
Blending sparse acoustics and glistening synth, Brooklyn's Snowmine make indie-rock music that evokes both the aching sentimentality and darling harmonies of Fleet Foxes, and the body moving tribal beats and electronics of Yeasayer. The five-piece — led by new-classical composer Grayson Sanders — knows how to assemble songs that are well-textured and emotional, but it's their real knack for building upon strong pop melodies that makes their work so appealing.
Featured song: "Let Me In"
Laminate Pet Animal is the debut album by Snowmine.

Mark Cuban says no team was impressive, including Spurs
I'm guessing Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is a busy man and didn't have time to read my Spurs season review in which I wrote about the spectacular regular season the San Antonio Spurs just wrapped up with a 10-game winning streak.
Had he read it, he would have seen that the Spurs were the only team to have three double-digit winning streaks in the compressed season, they never lost more than two games in a row, and have a top-five MVP candidate on their team.
Well it seems Cuban doesn't think the Spurs' season was all that great, as he says no NBA team had an impressive season.
"Like I've said all year long, the regular season means next to nothing," Cuban said Thursday. "Every single team, even the Spurs for a period there when they go through a tough part of their schedule, struggle. ... There was nobody that was overly impressive. So we'll see what happens."
Cuban said the Spurs struggled? When? When they were bounced by the Heat without Manu Giniobili in mid January and still didn't have a team identity? When they got drubbed by the Lakers at home, but then responded to beat the Lakers in the next two games by a combined 40-plus points?
"The Spurs have been playing great, obviously, because they've been shooting really well," Cuban said. "But, we've been that team before, too, and they were that team last year."
Even when the Spurs haven't shot well in some games this season, they were still able to pull out wins. Cuban can't really compare this Spurs team to his past high-scoring Mavs teams for one big reason, this Spurs team has an insurmountable amount of depth. They have a bench that can score more than 60-points in a game, as they showed on several occasions.
Cuban's current team has a lot to do with the Spurs' success this season. As I wrote in my season review, it was the loss to the Mavericks that willed this Spurs team to finish the season so strongly and find a team identity for themselves. The Spurs were 12-9 when they played and lost to the Mavericks in overtime on January 29, they would finish the season 38-7 the rest of the way because that loss built cohesiveness and confidence in their bench, that has carried them to the number one seed in the Western Conference.
On Saturday when Cuban's Mavericks face the Oklahoma City Thunder, and Sunday when the Spurs face the Utah Jazz, Cuban will find out if this regular season had no meaning at all.

ez—for the Programmer
AUIS had its roots in 1982 when Carnegie Mellon University and the IBM Corporation decided to jointly develop a campus computing facility based on personal computers to replace the time-sharing system then on campus. IBM provided not only generous funding, but also some talented individuals and access to IBM development programs.
The result was a graphical user interface we know as the Andrew User Interface System and a file system, the Andrew File System. The file system formed the basis of Transarc Corporation's Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) and is offered as part of the Open System Foundation software.
The Andrew Consortium, composed of a number of corporations and universities, funds the current development of AUIS. AUIS is available on a wide variety of platforms including Linux, AIX, Solaris, Ultrix, HP UX as well as others.
In early June, version 6.3 of the Andrew User Interface System (AUIS) was released by the Andrew Consortium. This led to the release of auis63L0-wp.tgz which contains just a small portion of AUIS that is suitable as a word processor.
Now another package has been released, auis63L0-src.tgz, to sunsite.unc.edu in /pub/Linux/X11/andrew. This is a set of additions to the word processing package to support the programmer. This article will describe the support ez provides to ease the coding and analysis of our programs. Future articles in Linux Journal will describe other pieces of AUIS.
As a programmer, we use the same simple tool, ez, as we did for word processing. Our source program is loaded (or created) and displayed in a window. But unlike ez the word processor, the data in the program source (document) does not directly control what happens. Rather the editor, ez, actually is "aware" of the syntax of the source language that is being edited and provides a specialized view of the source.
In the same way that a graph is really just a different representation of an array of numbers, ez has the ability to provide unique views of program source. This allows the editor to help you when entering the program source. ez also provides assistance in compiling your program. Finally, ez can help you analyze your program, to assist in understanding where data is referenced or where routines are defined.
ez provides support for a number of languages including assembler, Pascal, Modula, Lisp, C, and C++. It provides a unique view for each language source file. The view is triggered by the extension of the file you edit. For instance, ez will treat the file test.c as a C program and will treat the file test.C as a C++ program.
Figure 1. -fg black -bg lavenderblush
When you first edit a C program, you will see something like Figure 1. You see immediately there are many things to make the program easier to read:
the include statements are in a fixed font
comments are in a blue italized font
special words in the language like char, int, while, etc. are in magenta. (These are words already recognized by the ez view.)
function names, like main, are in red, using a different font
other special words, like, exit, are in green. (These are words the user defines as special.)
strings are shown in a fixed font
Figure 3. C-clause in progress
As you enter your code, ez will react as soon as it figures out what you are coding. In Figure 2 you can see a comment being formed. Notice the color and font have already been applied, even though the comment is not closed. In Figure 3 you can see how ez handles pair delimiters like (), {}, and []. When you enter the trailing delimiters (e.g.,"}") then ez will reverse-video the entire region to the matching delimiter. As you continue typing, the reverse-video is removed.
ez will attempt to keep its view correct at all times, but you can confuse it. For instance you might code a string without the comment delimiters and then later add the /* */ operators. When this happens, you only need select the menu item Redo styles on the Source Text menu card. This will cause the entire screen to be redrawn applying the view.
Figure 4. Reformatting your C source
ez will also attempt to help as you enter text by automatically indenting your source lines as you enter them. You do not need to enter a tab to indent, since ez will do this for you automatically. Unlike other aspects of the view, this does modify the source since it inserts tabs to align the text. You can also ask ez to reformat your source at any time. Simply select the area you want to reformat (i.e., so it is shown in reverse-video) and select the menu item Format line/region on the Source Text menu card. You can see the result of this action on our original source program in Figure 4. One convenient feature is that when you enter a trailing delimiter (like a "}"), ez will reverse-video the region to the matching delimiter ("{"). If you press tab at this point, ez will reformat the selected region, saving you the need to later re-select the area with the mouse.
There is a great deal of tailoring that can be done to control the behavior of your source view. If you do not like the way ez indents your source code, simply avoid the use of the Format line/region menu item and your source will not be modified. Regardless how your source looks, the lines of your original source are not modified unless you select this menu item.
Figure 5. Source from Fig. 4 in wider window
Just as with a text document, ez will automatically wrap lines based on the width of the window. For instance, Figure 5 shows the same source as in Figure 4. Notice the comments and source lines are re-aligned to make it more readable.
In the past I would spend a great deal of energy making my source look "pretty". It's important to me that my source look consistent since it makes the code much easier to read. Since I have been using ez, I no longer make any effort to format code, but rather concentrate on entering it. When I'm done, I reformat it with ez and I'm done. I especially like the reflowing of comments. This has caused me to change my commenting style. I seldom put comments on the same line as code any more. Rather I rely on paragraphs at the beginning of a block of code to explain what will follow. I much prefer this approach in coding. Others may not like this style. I use the parts of ez that I find useful, and ignore the others. I encourage you to do the same.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.
