' Oct. 14, 1930. R. LINTON ET AL ANT; GLARE REFLECTOR Original Filed March 9,, 192a mm'mfahiwis av ATTORNEY Reissued Oct. 14, 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE REGINALD LINTON AND WILLIAM JOHN JARVIS, F SYDNEY, NEW SOUTH WALES, AUSTRALIA, ASSIGNORS TO THE EGARSOL GLARELESS REFLECTOR CO. LTD., OF SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, A CORPORATION OF NEWSOUTH WALES ANTIGLABE REFLECTOR- Orlginal No. 1,751,934, dated March 25, 1930, Serial 260,38 3,'fi1ed March 9, 1928, and in Australia November 3, 1927. Application for reissue filed August 15, 1930. Serial 'No. 475,578.
This invention relates to anti-glare reflectors, employed in conjunction with a light source, preferably of the incandescent type, and is especially applicable to motor and other vehicles.
Briefly stated the objects of the invention are to provide a safe and efiicient light for driving at night; to produce a soft widely diffused light directly in front of the vehicle; and at the same time a flat penetrating light extending ahead of the diffused light.
The light source is positioned as ordinarily at the focal point of the reflector which is capable of light projection forwardly or outwardly to a degree according to the candle power of said light source. The reflector is capable also of illuminating objects on either side for a distance directly in front of the lamp, approximately equal to one fourth of the length of the visibility ahead. This side difiusion of light is of about equal intensity to that obtained forwardly of the lamp.
Further, the illumination obtained from the reflector produces a carpet or spread of light free from shadow, and is entirely free from movement due to any motion of the vehicle when negotiating irregular surfaces. The light projected from our reflector has the eflect of reducing to a minimum glare or the blinding effects caused by the usual reflectors on the optic nerve.
According to the invention, it comprises a concave reflector embodying a differential degree of finish. The area of the reflector from the apex to about half of the distance from the base, consists of a plurality of polished facets, or independent mirror surfaces, inclined at suitable angles to each other, thus causing a series of beams or shafts of light reflected from each facet or mirror obtaining light from the light source. These beams mingle with reflected light obtained from that area of the reflector where the facets or mirrors end, to its base, which consists of a matt, satin, or granulated finish, capable of projecting light in all directions. This is due to the multiplicity of minute reflecting surfaces on the matt or like area, also to the adual disintegration of reflected light rays rom each of the facets, combining with the total disintegration of light rays reflected from the matt surface and merging of the I diflerent degrees of reflected light.
hen we employ the apex of the reflector for the inclusion of highly burnished or plated facets or surfaces for use in lamps in a lateral or horizontal position, left and right additional facets are included in an area equal to about one fourth, or one third of the total apex surface, and preferably gradually increasing in size from the centre outwardly.
But in order that the invention may be more readily understood, reference will now be made to the accompanyingdrawings in which is illustrated a practical form of our reflector.
Figure 1 is a plan view of the complete reflector showing the respective polished and matt surface portions.
Figure 2 is a section on the line 2-2 of Figure 1 showing the manner in which the polished surfaces are indented by pressing to form the facets. p
Figure. 3is a perspective View looking on the rearside of the reflector and also showing the manner in which the facets are formed.
The reflector which has an inner concave surface is formed with a flange 4, and a central opening 5 to accommodate the usual lamp socket.
The central portion of the reflector has a plurality of highly polished or reflecting facets 6 disposed at an angle to one another, the remaining portion 7 of the reflector surface being matt or non-highly polished except where additional or side facets 8 are provided for the purpose of producing a wide beam oflight, in addition to a long pentrating beam from the central portion of the reflector.
By this construction, a soft widely diffused light is produced directly in front of the car or other object to which the reflector is fitted, and owing to portion of the reflector having a matt surface the beams of light from the facets mingle with the reflected light from the matt surface and produce a practically glareless light.
We may construct our reflector in two parts,
viz, an outer or rear shell formed or indented with facets on its inner face and an inner or front shell adapted to take in the former and having lateral cuts anda mat surface as described. I
We claim:
1. An anti-glare concave reflector, coinpris- I ing a" plurality of embossed transversely flattimed and polished surfaces adjacent to the center of the reflector for the purpose of refleeting a beam of light from a light source Within the reflector, that will penetrate a long distance ahead, a mat or non-highly polished surface above and, below the said embossed polished surfaces for producing a soft widely diffused beam of light directly in front of the within the reflector, a plurality of transversely flattened and highly polished surfaces disposed on each side of the central portion of the reflector body for the purpose of reflecting a flat penetrating beam of light and a mat or non-highly polished surface disposed above and below the said highly polished sur faces for the purpose of reflecting a soft widely diffused reflector. v
In testimony whereof, we have hereunto set our hands.

Did anyone answer this question yet as i am also confused. I don't understand jumping back and forth between the row to the chart. Can't it be written by row with all instruction written within that row instead of jumping back and forth? Very confusing, am i missing something here?
Thanks for any help

Not sure if you figured this out yet or not.
It is stated in Row 2, in parentheses, of the Bluebells Lace pattern at the top of the page....
Row 2: yo, k3, sk2p (sl1, k2tog, pass sl st over), k3, yo, k1
So you would slip 1, knit 2 together, pass the slipped stitch over.
It only explains it the one time then uses the abbreviation after that.
I hope this helps!

ok disregard my first question...figured that one out...I am wondering in the bluebells lace pattern the last sentence says to repeat rows 2-9 but the bluebell pattern only has 8. should i purl a row 9 (odd rows purl)if I do than the row 1 will also be a purl row....I was hoping for some clarification. thanks

Robert Rich's "Somnium" – released in 2001 – was (and still is) one of the landmark monuments of ambient music. Based on his experience playing sleep concerts since 1982, this 7 hour work was especially composed to be your companion during the night, following the natural flow of sleep cycles.
The original Somnium DVD (that was the only format then that could hold such an amount of music) has long sold out now.
But the good news is: there is a successor to this project now: "Perpetual" (and its physical release also contains the original "Somnium" recordings)! … Read More

A Winged Victory for the Sullen (AWVftS) is often referred to as a duo consisting of Adam Wiltzie (core member of the legendary Stars of the Lid – guess there's no further introduction needed) and pianist/composer Dustin O'Halloran. But AWVftS would not be AWVftS without the (now 7-member) string section and the additional modular synth sounds created by Francesco Donadello. Together they present a full orchestral sound with a fascinating balance of string arrangements, melancholic piano melodies and (somewhat unsettling) synth embeddings. … Read More

Thomas Köner is perhaps the Jules Verne of ambient-electronic soundscapes: his sounds seem to come from the deepest ocean, the centre of the earth, the vastest spaces imaginable. If you know his work, you will often immediately recognise his sound when you hear it – and maybe feel it before you even hear it.
Knowing his back-catalogue, the choice of a piano as the main instrument for his new album is somewhat surprising. Piano notes are clearly fixed in time, as opposed to the stretched sounds Thomas Köner usually applies. It is, in a way, a bit of a "rigid instrument". … Read More

Throughout musical history, composers have always taken fragments of other composers' work and used them to re-compose completely new compositions. Before "electricity", their choice of instruments was 'limited' to that of the classical orchestra settings. And now time has passed, they all sound 'classical' to contemporary ears.
But when contemporary composers – especially from 'rock' or experimental field – reworks classical compositions, incorporating electronic media – hell breaks loose in purist camps on both sides.
At least, that's how it used to be – some years ago. It seems things have changed a bit since we're more accustomed to the culture of 'sampling'. … Read More

These programs will be streamed "live" every first friday evening of the month (7PM+2 UTC; 21:00hr local time) via the MIXLR channel -where you can join in and chat/comment if you like!

Some of you may remember that before this blog became "Ambientblog" in 2009, it was called "DreamScenes".
Although still a 'niche genre', the interest in ambient/electronic/experimental music has kept growing, and currently there seems to be much more music than I could ever write about here.
Which sometimes leaves me with a slight guilt about not presenting music that is definitely worth listening!
Time to revive the "radio show" format…..!
Starting October, 3, (21:00 hr local time: UTC+2), the DreamScenes ambient music channel will be broadcast monthly using the possibilities of MIXLR webradio.
The programs will also be archived for later listening on MIXCLOUD – ánd of course here on Ambientblog.
After having released two timeless albums on the now legendary EM:T label ("1194″ and "4495"), Woob (Paul Frankland, also known as Max & Harvey and half of Journeyman) took some time off from making music (to work in the advertising industry) – returning in 2010 to release a string of new albums on Bigamoebasounds.
On "Ambient Disaster Movie", the sound (sometimes referred to as 'post-rave ambient') is still as bright and recognisable as it was in the beginning – presented with a refreshing (tongue-in-cheek) sense of humour.

A word from Pascal and Sabine
Pascal & Sabine is a fresh take on the European Brasserie, where good, simple food, strong drink, and those passing through come together to create a rich, sensory experience of precocious exuberance. Taking cues from Albert Lamorisse's signature work, The Red Balloon, Pascal & Sabine embraces the flight of fancy and ephemeral nature of an inflated balloon, adding its own unique touch of playfulness within its doors. Featuring cave-like banquettes and the highly regarded artwork of Paolo Ventura, Pascal & Sabine is a white string to hold onto, pulling you above the monotony of the world.Continued

- OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 11/25/2014The meal was a disappointment. The mussels were very small. The salad was large lettuce leaves with too much dressing. For the price there are better restaurants in town.The tart appetizer was very dry with not much of anything.Special Features:
- A View of the Eifel TowerLacklusterDined on 11/24/2014From Asbury Park and this side of the Atlantic dinner at Pascal & Sabine's is as close as you can come to Parisian cuisine. It's a welcome change offering many French standards authentically prepared and served with style. The restaurant interior is pleasing and well lighted to enhance the experience. Mixed drinks are nicely prepared and major brands are available. The wait staff is attentive and appreciative of the diners satisfaction. The menu offers opportunities to experience variety of selections. Portion sizes are entirely adequate. The menu consists of all house-made offerings asuriing seasonality.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Had a reservation but myself and my friend found a great spot at the bar, and Maggy was so intentive , who needs a table! Food and drinks were great, foe gras and duck dou terrifc. As we dine out more during the week then the week end and with the wide range of this menu, think we just found our new "go to " spot!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- An Asbury GemRaven275Dined on 11/11/2014We were recommended from a friend. Warm and romantic atmosphere. Food was tasty. We really enjoyed our visit.

- Delightful diningwineandineDined on 11/5/2014There are so few dining places that leave you with wanting more - Pascal and Sabine achieve this. The service is impeccable, food outstanding and the wine list is great. I love the intimacy of the booths, especially by the bar area. You are part of the scene but not. It's your choice. My only negative is that it's very difficult to get a reservation on the weekends and you must plan 2-3 weeks in advance in order to get one. On the flip side, during the week you can almost always get in and if you're early there's a prix fixe for $35.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best restaurant on the shoreFantasticDined on 11/4/2014We could not have had a better experience! After numerous disappointments at other establishments ( all that had been suggested as the best on the shore) up and down the jersey shore- I was beginning to think there weren't any truly great restaurants in the shore towns. But Pascal and Sabine was truly fantastic. The menu is fit for anyone from adventurous eaters to folks looking for something more standard. All dishes were perfectly executed from starters through dessert! Ambiance and service were beautiful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Asbury's latest gemotismymanDined on 11/1/2014This French Brasserie style restaurant is an absolute winner on Bangs St in Asbury Park. The cocktail list is inventive, with the bar tenders acting as chemists as they serve up some delightful concoctions. The Fall Nina - with Bourbon Calvados, Apple Cider, Lemon, Thyme Simple Syrup and Thyme is just an example. The kitchen turns out delicious recreations of French classics and contemporary favorites. The staff is charming and beautiful. I highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 11/1/2014The food was fabulous - service impeccable - first time to the restaurant and I will go back - absolute gemSpecial Features:
- DinnerEatsDined on 10/31/2014Service was excellent, waiter was knowledgeable about the wine list our only complaint was all our dishes (there was three of us) were a little too salty. The flat iron steak was tender and the pork chop was cooked perfectly. The desserts were very good, different from your average fare at other restaurants. If you want a quiet atmosphere where you can engage in conversation with your dining companions this is the place for you.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding dining experiencefoodloverDined on 10/30/2014Pascal and Sabine is a favorite of mine and never disappoints!Special Features:
- Simply The Best!!!!!!!LovestoeatDined on 10/30/2014Run, don't walk to this restaurant. You will not be disappointed. Everything was simply perfect from drinks to dessert. We drove 45 miles to enjoy this special place based solely on a Star Ledger review and it was memorable. Well worth the schlep if you don't live in the area. Enjoy!!!!!Special Features:
- Amazing experience!!FoodsnobsDined on 10/24/2014This restaurant delivered one of the best dining experiences we have ever had! Everything from food, service and atmosphere was spot on perfect!! Manager Amy was extremely engaged with guests in the dining room and helped make my wife's birthday experience incredible!! Thank you Amy and staff!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- New FavoritebourbonDined on 10/24/2014This became one of our favorites as soon as it opened. The food has always been spot on great. Try the duck two ways, or the scallops - actually, try everything. We also love their creative cocktails, which change seasonally, I believe. A bit of Manhattan in Asbury Park.Special Features:
- Pascal & SabineduneroadgirlDined on 10/24/2014First time at restaurant this past Friday night. Didn't know what to expect, but when I walked in, I was impressed with decor and overall ambiance. Staff and servers all professional and friendly. Food was delicious. Didn't love prices, but will go back again.Special Features:
- Worth the visitErnest77Dined on 10/21/2014We enjoyed this place, Service was excellent, and the food was very good, and priced fairly. The atmosphere is trendy but comfortable, but we did not like the tiny table for two on a Tuesday night in a largely vacant house. The coq au vin for 20 was delicious if a little overcooked. The duck breast was perfect, the confit leg was way overcooked. The country pate was good but not unusually so. The wild mushroom tart had great pastry and a good subtle flavor. The menu is unexpectedly small. The steak was $46- ? The waiter was friendly and attentive and made us feel welcome.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WOW for Pascal and SabineWallaciaDined on 10/19/2014THis is the 6th time I have been to this restaurant and the 1st time for brunch on Sunday. We started with a chocolate croissant to share . This is no custard filled butter bun... this is a small amount of delicious melted dark chocolate on a flaky buttery pastry worth waiting for. Then onto Brunch and the very very best eggs benedict that I have ever had. My companions had a quiche with ust the right amount of cheeses and bacon and also the omelette of the day which were also very delicious. Pascal and Sabine's never fails with the service, decor or the surprise flavors so beautifully served by their professional staff. Thank you for the freedom to bring my friends and clients anytime with the same expected great dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great Find!LovefrescobyscottoDined on 10/14/2014This is second time dining at Pascal & Sabine and it was an awesome experience. The service was extremely attentive, timed perfectly and just superb!

- NEW FANPattyVIPDined on 10/13/2014Each meal that was served was of wonderful quality. The lamb special was outstanding, perfectly cooked with wonderful flavors.

- THE BEST!!SherryPVIPDined on 10/11/2014We eat out quite often and being "locals" we have a lot of great restaurants to choose from...Pascal and Sabine is by far the BEST and most consistent!

- Birthday celebrationPauloDined on 10/11/2014I chose this restaurant to celebrate my birthday with my wife. We both had a wonderful meal. The main course was outstanding. We have been to this restaurant on more then one occasion and have never been disappointed.Special Features:
- Slow serviceyrropeVIPDined on 10/10/2014Second time at this restaurant and once again disappointment with the service. Shouldn't have to wait 20 minutes for a drink!
- very goodOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 10/4/2014we had been meaning to go ever since they opened and over all it was very good. biggest negative is it is very loud. the waiter was excellent. we had the cheese plate and it was delicious. my entree was the salmon which was very good. we sat in the circular table near the bar which was not ideal. my 3 friends enjoyed their food- but nothing spectacular. i would go back but probably not on a weekend due to the noise level.Special Features:
- Pascal and SabineJHMBrookfieldVIPDined on 10/4/2014We held a wedding rehearsal dinner here on an October Saturday night. The place was bustling, so we were lucky to have a table reserved for us in the back. The food and the service (Jordan, our waiter) were outstanding. Everyone was so attentive to our needs, and made wonderful suggestions for pairings. The restaurant is noisy - not so much to us, because we were a bit isolated, and I am sure we contributed to the noise level, but if you are hoping for a quiet time, ask to sit away from the crowd. Otherwise, everything was perfect. We will definitely go back again and again and again....Special Features:
- Loved it!ScottPDined on 10/3/2014My wife and I have eaten here numerous times for brunch and dinner. Stellar food, excellent service, great wine and cocktail list. Really phenomenal experience! Would highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WonderfulOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 10/3/2014Food excellent, as always, particularly filet mignon and roasted cauliflower side. Terrific wine list. Given month old reservation, would have preferred not to sit in back area with a large group, but I suppose we could have spoken up. Long wait for main course but otherwise service very good. A winner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Front House Staff needs TrainingPassiveFredDined on 10/2/2014Reserved for quiet, early anniversary dinner on a Thursday night. Reservation for 2 at 5:45PM. Arrived on time with restaurant relatively empty. Seated at a table for 2 directly next to the only other couple in the restaurant despite plenty of space all around. Never understand why restaurants jam patrons into a small area when there is no need to do so. I am not one to make a scene and switch tables but obvious insensitivity on the part of the hostess got the evening off to a bad start. Another couple seated right after us, moved from table to table three times before landing at one to their liking. Otherwise good, a little pricey, portions are small but well prepared. Wife's scallops a little overcooked but rest good.Special Features:
- Nice spotKathieNapDined on 10/1/2014First time trying this French style restaurant in AP, enjoyed thoroughly and shall return! Food was great...duck duo, filet mignon, pots de Creme...all fab. Central location, nice atmosphere, good wine list that matches well with food. was a little too noisy and to repeatedly ask for water refill but there then that service was quick,friendly,knowledgable and professional.Special Features:
- AVisittoParisDined on 10/1/2014This was my third visit and I enjoy it more each time. Service was excellent this time. Not so good for brunch.Special Features:
- Great restaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 9/25/2014We always enjoy Pascal and Sabine for cocktails and dinner. Menu items change regularly and are always creative and delicious. We are wine drinkers and enjoy navigating through the wine lists when we go out. However Pascal and Sabine strictly having French wines with limited selections make it difficult to choose a good wine. Unfortunately the staff is not educated on the wine list and generally is of no help in choosing a wine. Overall a nice experience and we will return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best in AP077xxDined on 9/24/2014They are doing a great job and change the cuisine regularly. The last time I was there everything was over salted BUT since it was about my 20th time there I know the food has been very good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Amsterdam, Nethe...
Based on Burda 8451 pattern, though with different (deeper) pockets and the green band on the side. I used the left overs of my shirt to add some color to the dark brown corduroy fabric. Also the pockets inner lining and the inside of the waistband are made with that green cotton.
The details are made of shirt-cotton, the rest is your basic thick corduroy.

This weekend Evelina, Yan an I had the pleasure of speaking at f(by) the first dedicated functional conference in Belarus. It was a short hop by train from Vilnius to Minsk, where we had been attending Build Stuff. Sergey Tihon, of F# Weekly fame, was waiting for us at the train station to guide us to the hotel with a short tour of the city.
The venue was a large converted loft space, by the river and not far from the central station, with great views over the city. The event attracted over 100 developers from across the region, and we were treated to tea and tasty local cakes during the breaks.
Evelina was the first of us to speak and got a great response to her talk on Understanding Social Networks with F#.
The slides and samples are available on Evelina's github repository.
Next up Yan presented Learn you to tame complex APIs with F# powered DSLs:
My talk was another instalment of F# Eye for the C# Guy.
The talk introduces F# from the perspective of a C# developer using live samples covering syntax, F#/C# interop, unit testing, data access via F# Type Providers and F# to JS with FunScript.
In one example we looked at CO2 emissions using World Bank data (using FSharp.Data) in a line chart (using FSharp.Charting):
[gb;uk;by] => (fun i -> i.``CO2 emissions (kg per 2005 PPP $ of GDP)``)
Many thanks to Alina for inviting us, and the Minsk F# community for making us feel very welcome.
How hard is it to get started in functional programming?
Let's have a look at how quickly you can get started on a selection of simple expression-oriented programming languages.
Today let's try Clojure, Elm, F#, Haskell and OCaml.
Online REPL
No install required just point your browser at a URL and you're off:
Each language has an easy to use online REPL with simple lessons to get you through the basics. Elm's online offering lets you edit multi-line programs, as does Try F#, which also includes intellisense in the online editor.
Development environment
Now you've covered the basics you probably want to install a lightweight development environment and start building larger programs:
I found LightTable very quick to install and setup. The editor comes with psychedelic colours to help you track opening and closing parenthesis:
I've been using Stuart Holloway's Programming Clojure book as a guide.
Elm has a very usable online editor, a simple installable REPL, and a wonderful playground feature with Elm Reactor:
If you're on Windows and have Visual Studio installed then you've already got F#. From the file menu click New and select a new F# project or script file.
No Visual Studio, no problem, for Windows the Tsunami IDE is a fast 25MB download, which gives you the latest compiler and an editor with intellisense:
On Mac I'd recommend Xamarin Studio and for Linux MonoDevelop or Emacs.
Functional Programming using F# and Dave Fancher's recent Book of F# are both great introductory texts.
The Haskell platform gives you a compiler and REPL from a simple 100MB install. A combination of a text editor along with the REPL gets you going in no time:
As a guide I've been using the Real World Haskell book. Learn you an Erlang some Haskell for great good! looks like a fun read too.
Like Haskell, OCaml is bundled in a simple installer and includes the compiler and REPL. Choose your own editor and use the REPL to explore your programs.
I recently picked up OCaml from the Very Beginning and More OCaml, which are both nice concise introductions.
Using an online REPL you can get started with any of these languages in seconds, and there are plenty of lightweight install options too. Combine that with a good selection of learning resources from books to online courses, and we can conclude that nowadays it's really not that hard to get started with FP.
There are a lot of interesting programming languages out there, but downloading and setting up the environment can be very time consuming when you just want to try one out. The good news is that you can try out many languages in your browser straight away, often with tutorials which guide you through the basics.
Following the pattern of 7 languages in 7 weeks book, here's a somewhat abridged version.
Fed up of long compile times, want a lightweight environment for scripting? Dynamic languages could be your new friend.
Lua is a lightweight dynamic language with excellent coroutine support and a simple C API making it hugely popular in video gaming for scripting. Have fun with game engines like LÖVE and Marmalade Quick.
Clojure is the brainchild of the hugely charismatic speaker Rich Hickey, it is a descendant of one of the earliest programming languages LISP. There's a really rich community around Clojure, one of my favourite projects is Sam Aaron's Overtone live coding audio environment.
R is a free environment for statistical computing and graphics, with a huge range of user-submitted packages. Ever wondered how to draw an egg?
Aspects of functional programming have permeated most mainstream languages from C++ to VB. However to really appreciate the expressiveness of the functional approach a functional-first language is required.
Erlang is a really interesting language for building fault tolerant concurrent systems. It also has great pattern matching capabilities. It has many industrial applications and tools including the RabbitMQ messaging system and the distribute database Riak.
Haskell is heavily based on the Miranda programming language which was taught in British universities in the 80s and 90s. Haskell added Monads and Type Classes, and is still taught in a few universities, it is also still quite popular in academic research.
OCaml like Miranda is based on the ML programming language adding object-oriented constructs. F# is based on OCaml, there is even a compatibility mode. OCaml still has industrial application, for example at Jane Street Capital and XenSource.
There's a plethora of languages that compile to JavaScript languages out there. Also worth a look are the new features in JavaScript itself, see Brendan Eich's talk at Strangeloop last year on the The State of JavaScript. Here's 3 *Script languages I find particularly interesting:
LiveScript is an indirect descendant of CoffeeScript with features to assist functional programming like pattern matching and function composition. Check out 10 LiveScript one liners to impress your friends.
Elm is a functional reactive language for creating highly interactive programs, including games. Reactive programming is an interesting direction and I think languages designed specifically for this are worth investigating.
Unfortunately there's currently no online editor for this one, but there is a command line REPL. PogoScript is DSL friendly allowing white space in function names.
Esoteric languages tend to be write-only, a bit like Perl but just for fun.
Brainfuck is the Rubik's cube of programming languages. I built the site last year with the interpreter written in plain old JavaScript, check out the fib sample.
With so many programming language experimentation environments available online, the next logical step is to host the IDE there. Imagine not having to wait 4 hours for Visual Studio to install.
Cloud 9 is an online environment for creating Node.js apps, pulling together sets of relevant packages. Tools like Sploder let you build games online.
The Try F# site offers arguably the most extensive online learning features of any language. Cloud Tsunami IDE also offers a rich online development experience for F#. In the near future CloudSharper will offer an online IDE experience for developing web applications with F# using WebSharper,
Once you've completed some basic tasks in a new language you'll want to move on to slightly larger tasks. I like to use exercises from the coding Kata Catalogue like FizzBuzz, the Game of Life and Minesweeper.
Some people enjoy going through the Project Euler problems, others have their own hello world applications. For Martin Trojer it's a Scheme interpreter and Luke Hoban often writes a Ray Tracer.
I'd also recommend joining a local meetup group. The London Scala meetup have a coding dojo every month and the F#unctional Londoners meetup have hands on session in the middle the month, the next one is on Machine Learning.
Programming language books that include questions at the end of sections are a good way to practice what you've learned but are few and far between. The recent Functional Programming with F# book is an excellent example of what can be done with questions at the end of each chapter.
While the basics of a language can be picked up in a few hours, expect it to take a few weeks before you're productive and at least a few months before you start to gain mastery.
Want to write your own language? Pete Sestoft's Programming Language Concepts book offers a good introduction to the subject.
The opinions expressed herein are my own personal opinions and do not represent my employer's view in anyway.
