Over the past two years, infographics have taken the Internet by storm. Everyone from mom-and-pop businesses to major publications like The Wall Street Journal have adopted this form of visual communication. It's easy to see why: infographics deliver data quickly and engagingly in today's world of information overload. But with any new medium comes questions. Below are some common questions and our answers.
Infographics FAQs: A Brief Rundown of How & Why
1. What are infographics?
Infographics are a tool used to graphically represent information. The earliest use of infographics was when cave men painted on walls. Today, infographics are just as appealing to the masses, with thousands being shared online every day. Infographics take complex information and data sets and make them easy to digest in a visually stimulating design. This allows the viewer to quickly grasp the main points from the data or information, which is important in our 30-second society. The Internet is filled with information and the infographic helps disseminate that information with ease.
2. What are infographics used for?
Infographics have had many purposes throughout time, but lately they are used primarily for online marketing. This is because infographics help to drive inbound links to websites, making those sites better optimized for search engines and thus improving their rankings in search results.
Of course, this is not the only use of infographics — it's just the most dominant use currently. Over the past year, however, infographics have been used for a variety of things including brand building, product launches, resumes, and more. As consumers continue to feed off of mass amounts of information delivered in micro formats, the need for infographics will continue to grow and their versatility will expand dramatically.
3. What is the ROI of infographics?
Online marketers have added infographics as a must-have element of any successful content strategy. Not only do they provide fresh, unique content for websites, but they are also highly sharable and can often kickstart a good viral marketing campaign. There are many ways to measure the ROI of infographics, but the most concrete measurement of success is likely inbound links. This is due to the sharable nature of infographics. Many bloggers repost infographics using simple embed code that is provided with the infographic itself. This embed code includes a followed anchor link back to the original host of the infographic, acting as a natural way to grow inbound links quickly.
Beyond inbound links, infographic success may also be measured by social shares on sites like Facebook, StumbleUpon, Digg, LinkedIn, etc. While this is sometimes harder to measure, it still provides a good metric of success.
Traffic is sometimes also used to measure the ROI of infographics, but sometimes an infographic will not have a direct impact on a specific page of traffic and will instead impact site traffic as a whole.
4. Who designs infographics?
As infographics grow in popularity, there are more agencies out there that have added infographic design to their offerings. Even better, there are agencies that strictly focus on designing infographics and nothing else.
Infographics are not easy to design and require a unique mindset. This is why it is often best to work with agencies that focus entirely on infographics, rather than working with a larger firm that acts as a jack-of-all-trades, so to speak. The best way to think of it is this: If you wanted to play every single instrument in the orchestra, it's not likely you would be amazing at each one. This is because not all of us have the ability to master everything in the wind, string, percussion, and brass sections. If, on the other hand, you focused just on the trumpet, you could become the next Louis Armstrong. Similarly, working with a design firm that has a core focus on that unique type of design gives you the chance to get amazing work every time.
5. How do I market infographics?
Infographic marketing requires a little bit of elbow grease, just like any online marketing campaign. To get the most out of your infographics, you should either have an in-house marketing team push them out to the masses or work with an infographic design agency that can get your designs the attention they deserve. As mentioned before, the ROI of infographics is usually based on links, and this often means that the infographic needs a marketing push to get you those links. Otherwise you could have an amazing design that nobody ever gets to see.
6. How long does it take to produce an infographic?
This depends on the scope of your project as well as the design agency you are working with. A good agency will meet your schedule, whether that be a few weeks or a few days. Most agencies can even accommodate an overnight turnaround, but you should expect to pay rush charges for something like that. At Killer Infographics, we typically turn around your design in 4-6 weeks and complete all edits within 5 business days of a request.
7. How much do infographics cost?
You will find a wide range of pricing from agency to agency. At Killer Infographics, we take pride in producing high-quality designs — and we also want our clients to achieve a good ROI.

one year in love
Tuesday, 09/25/12 10:18 PM
From: Ole Eichhorn
Sent: Tuesday, Sept 24, 2012 6:20 PM
To: Ken Wheeler*; Nick Wood
Subject: One year! - lovin' it!
Greetings Ken and Nick –
It has now been a year since I took delivery of my spiffy Renovo R4, and I wanted to write you a love letter about it. I knew I would like this bike, but it has exceeded my high expectations in every way.
I've put about 6,000 miles on it in the past year, including the Furnace Creek 508 [right after I took delivery last year] and the Hoodoo 500 [about a month ago], and it is so darn comfortable on long rides I don't know how I ever rode without it. It climbs great – people are always amazed at how light it is (I have really light custom wheels, and the Di2 groupo is light too of course) – but what is amazing is the rock solid way it just motors along in the flats. It is so smooth. For an old guy like me it is perfect.
And oh yeah, it is beautiful! Everywhere I go people admire it. At the Hoodoo 500 start the announcer made a particular point of calling me to the front so he could show everyone "the first wooden bike we've ever had in the race". That was pretty cool. Riding it around is like dating a supermodel, it sure gets positive attention.
Oh and by the way the Di2 has worked great … I was worried about the wiring and the battery in the seat post and all that, but the bottom line is I haven't had any trouble with it. The battery lasts forever and it is pretty much worry free.
Anyway I just wanted to report in and tell you how much I've enjoyed my Renovo. If you ever need a testimonial from a customer, please let me know :)
* Ken Wheeler is the founder and owner of Renovo Bicycles, Nick Wood is the guy who built my bike (and yeah, that really is his name :)

Why the fruity brandywine of Diana Gabaldon's fiction intoxicates some readers while leaving others unmoved is just one of those puzzles of literary chemistry. In 1991, Gabaldon published Outlander, an exuberant 640-page mash-up of fantasy, historical romance, adventure, and arch comedy that introduced a time-traveling nurse, Claire Randall, and her doughty Scottish lover, Jamie Fraser. In five fat best-selling sequels, Gabaldon advanced their saga, set against a lushly detailed 18th-century backdrop laden with platters of roast pheasant and colorful turns of phrase (''I ken the look of a lass that's been well bedded''). Is Gabaldon's work vivid and transporting? Undeniably. Is it overripe, long-winded, and silly? Oh, aye. As your critic, I am on the fence: I can't recommend these breathless bodice rippers, but I ken their appeal, I do.
Four years ago, Gabaldon spun off a series with Lord John Grey, a minor character from the Outlander novels (one with a major unrequited crush on Jamie). Novices interested in taking the measure of Gabaldon's work might consider her uncharacteristically slender new volume, Lord John and the Hand of Devils, a likable trio of novellas.
The book begins with ''Lord John and the Hellfire Club,'' which finds Grey enjoying some claret at his London hangout, the deliciously named Society for the Appreciation of the English Beefsteak. As a clueless friend teases him about ''the ladies,'' Grey tries not to ogle Robert Gerald, a redhead (''Not copper, not carrot; a deep red, almost rufous, with glints and streaks of cinnabar and gold'') he spots across the room. (Grey is comfortable with his homosexuality, but discreet.) Before the day is done, Gerald has been stabbed, dying as Grey strokes his ''ruddy'' hair, and our noble hero is drawn into a hunt for the dastardly killer. He tackles this task with characteristic élan, intelligence, and fortitude, assisted by jeweled goblets of wine and meaningful glances from fetching men.
Meaningful glances must suffice for Grey, who, unlike Jamie and Claire, doesn't get much on-the-page action. (Nor is he a time traveler.) In the second novella, ''Lord John and the Succubus,'' Grey battles a she-devil preying on British soldiers, while he himself crushes on a Prussian officer. Finally, in ''Lord John and the Haunted Soldier,'' he tracks down the scoundrel responsible for a malfunctioning cannon and falls for a gunpowder manufacturer. The feverish, somewhat goofy whodunit plots don't hold up to scrutiny. Nonetheless, you may find yourself relishing the dishes of gooseberry trifle, the cozy afternoons at the Beefsteak Appreciation Society, and the companionship of this urbane 18th-century blade. B-

BBB continues it's hilarious rollicking way. It is always current and up to date and everyone laughs their butt off.
Arrive early to get best seats, your ticket is for a section and they pack them in. Go for aslie or front of a section.
Have seen this show 10 times over 20 years, and evryone I have ever taken sez it is "The Best".
We had a blast
[5 of 5 customers found this review helpful]
There is great eating close to the venue. We ate at the Washington Square Bar and Grill (WashBag) and walked one block to the theater. The program was delightful. However, the seats were wooden, hard, and crammed in. My seat was pushed against the wall, I was turned sideways and needed to twist to watch the stage, after a while this became almost unbearable. Since it was so tight, I was unable to turn my chair. This would be the perfect event for an afternoon performance with a lunch attached. The [...] bill for the event was a bit steep given the poor seating arrangements. In the future I would only take a seat in the upper balcony.

This musical review has political and social commentary that pokes fun at almost everyone. You can't help but laugh at some of the ridiculous impersonations. The costuming is wonderful. It's a winner all of the way around. I take my hat off to them!

One Response to Bullet time effect – Still cameras array – Time slice
I first thought about bullet time camera effect when watching Red Hot Chilli Peppers live at Slane when Kiedis jumped and the camera panned from one side to other. I could never think about the logic how the hell they do it with only one camera or software effects. The camera panning must be super fast to create that sort of motion, I thougth. Then I found out that Bullet time camera effect is what they used, its a scene created when a frozen motion is panned using gazillion of camera set up around the object.
Here are some example of amazing examples beside the most famous one, Matrix movie bullet time scene and they are not the first time to use this technique:

RALEIGH -- Things are winding down at the Legislative Building in Raleigh, but there could be a last minute frenzy of activity to get some big legislation done before lawmakers head home.
The top priority for lawmakers is reaching a deal and voting on a tax plan and two-year state budget. The spending plan has to be in place before legislators can head home for the year.
On the Senate side, lawmakers will receive the proposal just approved by the state House to amend North Carolina's abortion laws. The proposals were added to a Senate bill, so the body just needs one concurrence vote on the bill. If it agrees to it, the proposals then go to the governor for consideration.
The state House is also looking to take up a much talked about bill this week. The proposal to give some illegal immigrants the opportunity to get a driver's license is on the calendar for Monday night. The proposal could put some stricter regulations on undocumented immigrants in the state.
Several immigrant groups have come out against the proposal.

So proud to live in a town that is taking going "green" seriously.I just got back from going to the local dump. As a town, we do not have garbage pick up. You can hire a service to take your garbage, or you can take it yourself. Growing up in Staten Island, NY, I know a thing or two about dumps. Funny enough, I think all Staten Islanders have memories of going to the dump once or twice. When I was real young you could actually walk amongst the garbage and pick stuff up. When I was older, you drove in to special sections and it was very organized, you were no longer allowed to walk in the garbage. Finally after I left Staten Island the dump was closed. Here in Camden Maine, I am impressed by all the recycling efforts that go on in the dump. You have to separate paper, plastic, cardboard, glass and tin. It usually takes me about an hour to do all this sorting but in the end, I know it will be recycled and not end up in a huge dump somewhere. In addition to the great recycling program in this area, there is this great citizens initiative: http://www.citizensforagreencamden.org/ Camden Windward House is on the Citizens for a Green Camden "green map" and has pledged not use pesticides on our lawns. The absence of pesticides has made a big difference in the number of birds we have been seeing on our property. We always look forward to spring because we know we will have several robin families around us. In the past we have had morning dove babies. In the beginning of starting this no pesticide program, I admit we were nervous about how the yard would look. But when you cut your grass regularly and plant lots of flowers it looks great. We encourage all of our friends to try going green. Recycle and don't use pesticides.
Guests got engaged at Windward House Bed and Breakfast this weekend in Camden Maine. Halloween Weekend brought cool temps, mild winds, gray skis and romance in the air. 2 lovely guests came from NY City to get away from the hustle of the city and to focus on love. They went up to the top of mountain, but it was way to cold, and they said there were alot of people up there, so they came down and the proposal was right here in the Inn, in front of a fireplace. We are so pleased they chose Windward in the winter for their special moment in time. Cheers.

Cuomo, Legislature resume state budget talks
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Governor Andrew Cuomo and legislative leaders are returning to Albany to resume budget talks. The unusual Sunday meeting reflects the desire for an early or on-time deal ahead of Friday's budget deadline.
Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos said Friday that the Legislature has restored $250 million of Cuomo's proposed cut to education. Cuomo proposed a $1.5 billion cut.
Cuomo's proposed budget would cut overall spending 2.7 percent. It totals more than $132 billion and addresses a $10 billion deficit.
The Democrat's first budget is also aimed at ending what he calls decades of overspending that he says is now unaffordable.
Legislative leaders are trying to ease the cuts, which could include thousands of layoffs and reduced aid to schools and social services.

Sept 26 - The FDIC and the other banking agencies have proposed revisions to the regulatory capital components and ratios portion of Schedule RC-R, Regulatory Capital, of the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income. The agencies also have proposed to revise the FFIEC 101, Risk-Based Capital Reporting for Institutions Subject to the Advanced Capital Adequacy Framework, which is completed by advanced approaches institutions (generally, institutions with consolidated total assets of $250 billion or more or consolidated total on-balance sheet foreign exposure of $10 billion or more).
Call Report Schedule RC-R would be revised as follows:
The agencies plan to request comment at a later date on a separate proposal to revise the existing risk-weighted assets portion of Schedule RC-R, which would be designated Part II in March 2014. The revisions to Part II, which would take effect for all institutions in March 2015, would incorporate the standardized approach for calculating risk-weighted assets under the revised regulatory capital rules.
The proposed changes to the FFIEC 101 would incorporate the revised advanced approaches rules, would affect the report's risk based capital schedule and nine of its risk-weighted assets schedules, and would take effect in March 2014.

Empty buildings just aren't challenging enough, so the crew takes on the relocation of entire still-operating businesses, and considers what it would take to move the Pentagon!
- The ultimate in heavy lifting.
- Engineers are put to the test relocating everything from 19th century churches to massive factories.
- An antiques shop and a funeral home find new final resting places.
If you're the type who can't leave anything behind, you may have to call in the MEGA MOVERS. Whether it's a 19th century church, a railroad bridge or an entire beach there's nothing our experts can't relocate. Of course, when it comes time to lift a structure from its foundations and head down the road (at a fraction of a mile an hour), every creak and groan can provide a vital clue, and a mistake of an inch could spell disaster.
The Pentagon, at 3.7 million square feet, is the world's largest office building. Suppose you needed to move it? Impossible! Suppose it had to remain operational while you did so? Forget it! Suppose you had the MEGA MOVERS crew on the job? Alright, maybe it could happen. Find out what it would take to achieve this amazing feat.
Then witness two fully-stocked, still-operating businesses - an antique shop loaded with delicate and priceless artifacts and a funeral home full of caskets and embalming equipment - undergo moves that would rattle even an empty warehouse. This isn't just a bull in a china shop, it's a bull picking up the shop and carrying it down the street!
Put that Superglue® away, the MEGA MOVERS are on the job!

Heroes star Hayden Panettiere wore this green ruffled Elizabeth and James mini skirt a while back, adding some edge with a leather jacket and booties. Taraji P. Henson wore the same little dress on New Year's Eve, sexing it up with gold sandals and matching clutch. Who do you think wore it best?

I have had a long ride with this cabinet. I love the styling. The first cabinet I was sent had the a top piece with holes drilled in the wrong places. I contacted Overstock via chat and a new top was ordered easily and with no problem. But I had paid for expedited shipping for the cabinet and now I had to wait for a top. O.com was very gracious and refunded ALL of my shipping charges. So, when the top arrived, my neighbor put the cabinet together for me and hung it up (I have tendinitis in my wrist). The doors were not lined up right. The next morning I hear a loud crash and I find that the cabinet split in half and half of the cabinet was on the wall and half was on the floor and all my things were all over the floor. My newly painted walls were all dinged up also. So, I contacted Overstock again and they said they would send me a new cabinet, but I had to send back the old one. That meant I had to take everything apart and box it up. They gave me a RMA# and Shipping Label. I got the new cabinet and I asked a different friend to put it together. Someone with more experience putting things together and who has a background in hardware. Again, the doors didn't line up, but my friend put some shims in to balance them out a little more. But again, the kit was missing one part. A minor one thank goodness. The pegs to hold the shelves. There were only enough for one shelf. I just got the ones (and plenty extras) today. But a BIG NEGATIVE was that the composite split in three places just screwing in the required screws. First bought 2/24...today 4/2
This cabinet was easy to assemble, and is trim enough to fit in my small bathroom without overwhelming it. It brightens the room with the bright white color and simple decorative details. However, the cabinets's clean lines and "freshness" can be lost once you begin to stock it. Since the glass is clear and not frosted, all of the contents are visible and can easily look messy behind the silver and white decorative elements on the doors. Because of this, the product is not as practical as I'd hoped. My advice is to think ahead about what you are going to put in it, and how that will change how it looks online (empty). This isn't a bad product, I just didn't have the foresight to think of the aesthetics vs the practicality before I bought it.
I am very pleased with the cabinets quality, style and appearance. It is not an ordinary piece of bathroom furniture. An exceptional value for such a solid piece. I love the glass with the extra detail. Really adds style to the bathroom. I was able to put it together in less than 20 minutes.
The cabinet is beautiful, looks great in my bathroom. One person put together in about 30 minutes. Looks great, a great buy.
I wanted a cabinet that had style to match our bath. The product fit the bill.
I hesitated momentarily after several negative reviews, but this piece turned out perfect. Assembly was easy, directions well written. The template to mount on the wall was something I never expected but worked fantastic! I would order another without any concerns.
It is a pretty looking medicine cabinet. Details are nice. It fits into small space which I needed for my small apartment. I love the look of the glass doors and the details on the door. My only complaint is that the glass is see through and once you fill in the shelves it looses it's clean look. But holding pretty towels and soaps makes a nice display! Good value for what you get!
Putting together the cabinet was a snap, instructions were easy and all the parts were clearly labeled. The only problem was in the packaging itself. The top of the cabinet had several scratches in it because the package containing all the screws had rubbed against the board. Since it was the top of the cabinet it was out of sight and didn't bother me. It might bother someone else. Installing the cabinet on the wall was very easy. The template provided was great, you just need to make sure it is level.
very nice wall cabinet sturdy stylish good quality i purchased for bathroom
This cabinet came to me damaged and I did not feel like packing it up and returning it. The wood was cracked in the back where you hang it on the wall. I have yet to hang it in the bathroom yet. But I am disappointed about the damage. Also the magnet to close the door was not there. My brother had to improvide and rigged it where it would close.

Hung in the gallery's front window is the monotype "Pinata," one of Heitler's few large pieces. For this print, she has smeared vibrant colors including blue, yellow and red in vertical smudges over torn sheets of paper laid underneath the paint. It's fabulous.
The William Havu Gallery's inaugural exhibit is, according to Bill Havu, indicative of the direction he wants the gallery to take. He intends it to be a showcase for the work of some of the best regional artists--and with so many out-of-staters filling up too many of the other commercial galleries in town, it's an idea whose time is way overdue.

(CNN) -- Severe flooding in the Pacific island nation of Fiji has killed five people and left about 8,000 others seeking shelter in evacuation centers, a government official said Tuesday.
Tropical Cyclone Daphne has lashed Fiji's largest and most populous island, Viti Levu, with strong winds and heavy rain.
The storm was expected to pass to the south of Fiji over the course of Tuesday. The Fiji Meteorological Service said it was maintaining its severe flood warning for "all major rivers, streams and low-lying areas" on the island.

Government officials, including Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama, toured the affected areas on Monday.
Sharon Smith Johns, the government's information secretary, said Tuesday that improving weather in some areas was allowing some Fijians to move back to their homes.
The extreme weather has disrupted both internal and external travel. Authorities on Sunday suspended inbound flights to Nadi International Airport because nearby roads were flooded. The suspension was lifted Monday but remained subject to review.
The Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has advised its country's citizens planning to fly into the airport "to reconsider their need to travel."
CNN's Brian Walker, Jethro Mullen and John Dear contributed to this report.

We have two dogs and we allow them on our Lazyboy furniture. These covers are PERFECT. The arm covers are long enough to cover the overstuffed arms of the sofas and the back has plenty of room as well. We love these so much we bought another set so we have one to put on immediately when the other is in the wash.

CAO Gold Karats (5) Reviews [view details]Give us YOUR review!
Showing 1 through 7 of 7 reviews
"Good Quick Smoke That Relaxs."
I purchased a tin of five just to try a CAO. The first thing that I notice when I started smoking was the draw, it was just great. The taste was smooth and flavorful just right for a quick smoke. I smoked it to the nub without having any peppery tastes. All in all I truly enjoyed the smoke. It s a good little cigar for what it is.Doug in Mississippi February 3, 2014
"Good and Simple"
Where these lack in in-your-face flavor, they make up for in pure, robust tobacco flavor. I'd recommend these to anyone who wants the simple tobacco experience in a high-quality short smoke.PDB in December 27, 2012
"No Thanks"
I just finished lighting up and could not finish this cigar. I thought it tasted terrible! The smell was awful as well. My wife usually can handle the smell of my cigars. She almost lost her dinner over this one. I will not purchase any more of them in the future. I'm glad I only bought one tin. No thanks, you can keep them.Chad in Oklahoma April 10, 2008
"i am not writing home to mom over these."
nice look ,good draw but lacked any flavor.try baccarat connies for similar smoke.i found those to be a very nice flavorful short smoke.kobyf in colorado December 5, 2007
"Good, not great!"
I just finished a tin of 5 of the Karats and found that while exceptonally mild to my taste they lacked any significant flavor. The appearance, construction, draw and burn are all excellent, however I think the Criollo in the same size is a much better choice in terms of flavor.M. Walsh in TX January 19, 2007
"outstanding short, mild cigars"
If you are looking for a short and mild but excellent cigar look no further; the 38 ring makes it feel almost like a real cigar and the taste delivers substance.Mike Foley in Pennsylvania February 18, 2006
"nice short smoke, quality burn & taste very good"
Nice short smoke for quick trips to the store.Bob D'Amico in CT February 7, 2006

Ship nomenclature and Ship types
Related Resources:
Ship Nomenclature
The first entry in the statistics line in an individual Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships' entry is the nomenclature of the ship when first commissioned. Although now indicated by a combination of two or more letters followed by a number (DDG-51, for example), the reader will note that older ships have the ship type spelled out and sometimes include an associated number (example, ship-of-the-line or Battleship No.12). The dividing line between the two is 17 July 1920, when the Secretary of the Navy approved General Order No. 541, establishing an alpha-numeric designation system.
Until 1920 the nomenclature of a U.S. Navy ship was spelled out (e.g., frigate, sloop-of-war, monitor, torpedo boat, submarine, etc.). Early in the 20th-century, as ship types diversified and became more numerous, the Navy began referring to ships of certain types by a consecutive number indicating the relative order of their construction, applying numbers retroactively back to the beginning of the particular type in question. For instance, the first U.S. destroyer, Bainbridge, was given the number "one" (No.1). Battleships, submarines and torpedo boats were likewise referred to by number, as were some cruisers and monitors. Thus, Pittsburgh was known as Armored Cruiser No. 4; Tonopah as Monitor No. 8; Flusser as Torpedo Boat-Destroyer No. 20; and F-4 as Submarine Torpedo Boat No. 28. In a variation to this practice, register numbers prefixed with the letters "SP" were given to many of the privately owned ships taken into the Navy in World War I. Assigned at the time a ship was inspected and accepted by the Navy, the number bore no relation to the type nomenclature system, but was for identification only.
Following World War I, and the confusion experienced in mailing correspondence and shipping spare parts to ships during the war, Acting Secretary of the Navy Robert E. Coontz approved a standardized system of alpha-numeric symbols to identify ship types (e.g., BB for battleship, DD for destroyer, DM for light mine layer, AD for destroyer tender). Linked with a consecutive number, the use of which now became general for all types of naval ships, these classification symbols provided positive and individual identification of both named and unnamed ships, many of which might not be readily identifiable by name alone.
As with any retroactively applied system, peculiarities and seeming discrepancies were bound to (and still do) appear. George Washington (SSBN-598), for example, was a fleet ballistic missile submarine, nuclear propulsion, with a hull number of 598. This seems to indicate that George Washington was the 598th ballistic missile submarine accepted by the Navy, a reasonable assumption given the mid-20th century practice of using consecutive numbers. This is not the case, however, as the numbers were consecutive by general type, not individual class variations. Thus, SSBNs were slotted into the "submarine" category along with every other variation in submarine type (SS, SSK, SSG, SSN, etc.). George Washington, therefore, received number 598 even though it was actually the first SSBN in the U.S. Navy. Indeed, that submarine was not even the 598th boat accepted by the Navy, as submarine G-1 (ex-Seal) was assigned the hull number 191/2 to fit it into it's proper place in the chronological listing of submarines. This happened in other cases as well, with second-class battleships Texas and Maine, both originally rated as "armored cruisers," preceding Indiana (Battleship No. 1, later redesignated BB-1). In addition, some hull numbers were assigned only to have the ship contract canceled. The slots remained empty so as not to give lower hull numbers to younger ships.
Significantly, the U.S. Navy later altered the tradition of consecutive numbering with the launching of some new or converted classes of ships in the 1950s and beyond, though this initially began during World War II with the Alaska-class (CB-1) battle cruisers. For example, light cruisers converted to guided-missile cruisers gave up their CL numbers, with CL-92 becoming CLG-4; the first nuclear-powered cruiser Long Beach was assigned CGN-9 rather than CGN-160 (the next available cruiser number); and the first Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigate received FFG-7 vice FF-1097. The latest changes took place in the 1990s, with the construction of the Seawolf-class SSN-21 boats and work on an experimental DD-21 class of destroyers. This despite having used SS-21 in 1912 and DD-21 in 1898. The peculiarity in hull numbering apparently came about when the project titles were applied as hull numbers, thus, for example, the "Submarine for the 21st Century" became SSN-21.
Ship Types
The Navy also organized ships by type, both for administrative reasons and to have a system in place to make comparisons with foreign navies, as illustrated by the 1919 Office of Naval Intelligence list of definitions. That general delineation was expanded and broken down into individual ship types with the issue of General Order 541 of 17 July 1920, which established the letter-symbol system of ship designation in use today. Designations are grouped within each category by alphabetically arranged letter symbol.
Since type names and designation symbols are subject to change over the years, as the Navy changed in size, structure and composition. SECNAV 5030.1E from 1968, version L from 1993 and SECNAVINST 5030.8 from 2006 illustrate this evolutionary process.
Ship types are listed under the general type categories (Cruisers, Mine Warfare Types, etc.) as they were or are officially assigned. When the letter-symbol system was first established it was intended that the first letter of a symbol should indicate the type category; as, B for Battleships, A for Auxiliary ships, and so on, with the second letter sometimes, but not always, indicating the sub-class. Since the letter-symbol system began in 1920, many exceptions to this principle have arisen. Ships with a letter prefix denoting one category are sometimes assigned to another while retaining the original symbol. Or a new type category will be setup, with types assigned to it from other categories; these types will sometimes retain their old symbols. For example, the category of Mine Vessels, established in 1928, was assigned ships with symbols beginning with A, C, and D; it was not until the 1950's that most minecraft received new symbols prefixed with M. Amphibious warfare types were considered Auxiliary Ships until 1942, when the prefix L was applied to landing ships and craft; but several amphibious types such as the AKA and APA continued to bear the Auxiliary (A) prefix.

Brother ain't that the truth.2) Recruiting or Russian Female Agents
It was a long time before the Abwehr understood Russian women well enough to be able to employ them profitably. Other methods had to be used than those employed in recruiting Polish, Latvian, French, and Belgian women. The recruiting officer had to show that he was not interested in the prospect as a woman, for she would refuse to collaborate if she became suspicious of his intentions.
