The Princeton
Mathematics Community in the 1930s

This is the fourth in a series interviews with Albert Tucker in his office in Princeton University. The interviewer is William Aspray. The date is the 13 April 1984.
Aspray: I'll let you begin where you'd like.
Tucker: The outstanding Princeton publication as far as mathematics is concerned is the Annals of Mathematics. Certainly one of the leading journals in mathematics for the whole world. Some people will even say the leading journal.
Aspray: Are you speaking of today or in the 1930s?
Tucker: I'm speaking of today. We must point out that this year, 1984, is the hundredth anniversary of the Annals of Mathematics. It was begun in 1884 by a professor at the University of Virginia, Ormond Stone, who paid the expenses of the Annals of Mathematics for the first ten years of its life.
Aspray: Was this one of the very first math journals in the United States?
Tucker: The first mathematics journal in the United States was the American Journal of Mathematics which is located at Johns Hopkins.
Aspray: And always has been.
Tucker: Yes, so certainly in terms of seniority, there is no doubt that the American Journal of Mathematics comes first in American mathematics. Annals of Mathematics was the second. As I say, it was founded by Ormond Stone at the University of Virginia in 1884. In 1899, the direction of the journal was taken over by Harvard University. Various of the mathematicians at Harvard, such as Maxime Bocher and W.F. Osgood, served as editors. There were usually two or three named at a time, and there was a certain rotation. But in 1911, for some reason that I don't know, the journal was transferred from Harvard to Princeton and has been published at Princeton by the Princeton University Press since 1911. In 1933 when the Institute Institute for Advanced Study was getting started, the School of Mathematics of the Institute took joint responsibility with the University's department of mathematics in editing the Annals.
Aspray: Has that continued?
Tucker: That has continued ever since, In the early days here at Princeton I think it was [J.H.M.] Wedderburn who did most of the editing, and then in the late 1920s [Einar] Hille and [Solomon] Lefschetz took over the editing. Hille left in 1933, and von Neumann then replaced Hille in team with Lefschetz. Then late in the 1930s, about 1938 I believe, H.F. Bohnenblust, joined Lefschetz and von Neumann as the designated editors of the Annals. As long as I've been around it's been understood that the faculty in mathematics at the University, and then later also the mathematicians at the Institute for Advanced Study, were all assistant editors for the Annals.
In his period, Lefschetz was the dominant editor. Von Neumann was quite happy to do only what he was asked to do. Bohnenblust served as informal editor for several years before he was actually named as editor. The Annals at first had four issues a year. I believe that the annual subscription to the Annals, at the time that it was taken over by Princeton University in 1911, was $2 a year.
Aspray: Can you tell me something about the circulation numbers?
Tucker: No, I can't, but I think that at that time when it was $2 a year all of the established mathematicians of the country would have automatically subscribed to the Annals and also to the American Journal.
Aspray: I see.
Tucker: It was quite customary in those days for a mathematician to have his own private library. Nowadays it has become rather too expensive to do this. So now it's the library subscriptions that are the mainstay of a journal such as the Annals. Until along about 1930 the Annals was mainly an American publication, that is, the papers that came to it were mainly by American authors. But starting in the Thirties, and especially later when it became a joint undertaking by the University and the Institute, it received its papers from all over the world.
Aspray: Was this a recognition, do you feel, by non-American mathematicians, that the American mathematical community was becoming worthy of their publishing in American journals?
Tucker: Oh, yes. Also at that time between the two world wars, the European journals were having a hard time of it. By that I mean they weren't able to publish many papers, and at some time in the Thirties the Annals changed over from four issues a year to six issues a year. There got to be two volumes a year, and one volume of three issues was as large or larger than the previous annual volume of four. So when there came the papers from all over the world this wasn't to exclude American papers, because the Annals simply expanded its size to include the papers from elsewhere while handling also the American papers.
Aspray: In the Thirties, how did the Annals compare with other journals, both American and foreign? What were the major journals of the Thirties for mathematicians?
Tucker: Well, of course in Germany Mathematischen Annalen and Zeitschrift, particularly the Annalen, still played an important role. You would find a large number of von Neumann's early papers published in the Annalen. And then there were various journals, the Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, the Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society, and French journals. Of course the Comptes Rendus was always the journal in which to try to get quick publication of a new result. Also the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in this country served a similar purpose. At that time, of course, there were really no outstanding journals in other countries, such as the USSR or Japan. There was in Sweden the Acta Mathematica that had been founded by Mittag-Leffler. Of course, I was very close to things with the Annals, indeed I served as an unnamed assistant-editor working with Lefschetz in the 1930s, but it's my objective feeling that the Annals represented an exciting new feeling and that with the development of topology and various new fields the older journals, particularly the Acta, tended to be pretty much in the traditional fields.
Aspray: I see. That was true of Mathematichen Annalen also.
Tucker: Yes, although I think that it was less staid than the Acta.
Aspray: What about the various publications of the American Mathematical Society? How did they fit into this scheme?
Tucker: The Transactions of the American Mathematical Society was a journal at the same level as Annals. But it's my opinion that the Transactions has always suffered from the fact that it was a committee job.
Tucker: That the refereeing was heavy handed and publication was slow and Transactions was fussy. They wouldn't take a short paper; anything under ten pages had to go to the Bulletin and also they didn't want very long papers. The Annals would publish a paper of two pages or a paper of one hundred pages. There was a much freer attitude. Also in the time that Lefschetz was editorthis extended from the late Twenties on into the Fifties, I think he was editor for something like 28 yearshe really ran the thing and would often invite a paper. He would hear of some new result, and he would write and solicit the paper and promise publication without refereeing.
Now the Transactions was run democratically, no favors, everybody treated the same. The Annals was run with a great deal of favoratism, and this would have been tragic if it hadn't been for the tremendous perception of Lefschetz who seemed to sense when something was a very good paper, scarcely without reading it. Some intuition told him, I guess. He must have made some mistakes, though I can't cite any. Of course, this also made a lot of enemies, because two people, say, would be competing to get first publication in some new thing and the person who published in the regular American Mathematical Society channels through the Transactions got nipped by the guy who got it in with Lefschetz.
There are many things that you can say against this autocratic system of Lefschetz. I used to fight against it when I was an assistant editor. I said that having a paper refereed was a service to the author as well as to the readers and that there were often things that a referee could catch that the author would very much appreciate having the opportunity to change before the thing was published. But Lefschetz just brushed this aside.
Aspray: You told me off tape several days ago that most of the refereeing was done in house.
Tucker: That's right.
Aspray: When would a paper be sent out?
Tucker: Only when we couldn't get anybody to do it in house.
Aspray: So that meant that you could get rather rapid turnaround on papers.
Tucker: Yes. And I would say that 95% of what was published did not have any outside referees. And even outside referees were usually friends, so to speak.
Aspray: I see.
Tucker: People that we could count on to act just as though they were here.
Aspray: Speaking of rapid turnaround on referring of papers, you've told me a story off tape of von Neumann's reviewing technique, about his turning the pages. Could you?
Tucker: It was Herman Goldstine, I think, who told you that. I didn't ever have direct information about that, but I can believe that it was very true. I think also Wigner mentioned that von Neumann would apparently read a paper that he wanted to know about just by turning the pages. His brain worked with what seemed to be ten times the rapidity of any other mathematician.
Aspray: Was most of the research of the Princeton community published in the Annals?
Tucker: Yes, that's where my thesis was published and an earlier paper before that I had written under the impetus of Eisenhart. Indeed in that case what I thought I was doing was trying to convince Eisenhart of a certain criticism that I had about a chapter in his book on Riemannian geometry.
This was when I was taking the course from him in my first year here in Princeton. I saw what I thought was a much better and more satisfying way of doing something with regard to the Riemannian geometry of subspaces. So I first of all suggested to him this, and then he asked me to write it out for him. Then this was repeated two or three times. He would read each draft that I gave him. Finally one day towards the end of my first year here at Princeton, he said, "Well, Mr. Tucker, I would like to submit this for publication in the Annals of Mathematics. And until he said that, I had no idea that I was writing a paper. I was just trying to make a point with him about material in the course that he had been teaching. So he automatically thought something that could be published should be published in the Annals. You sent it elsewhere only if there was some reason for not sending it to Annals.
At times Annals got quite a backlog, so there were times when you had a chance of faster publication elsewhere. But there just is no doubt that Annals of Mathematics has been part of the Princeton mathematical picture ever since it came here in 1911.
Aspray: At about what date did it come into this fairly preeminent position?
Tucker: I would say about 1930. By say 1934, which is just fifty years ago, halfway, it was established as a leading, if not the leading, mathematics journal in the world. Of course, applied mathematicians would say that Annals of Mathematics was a journal of pure mathematics and that is probably correct. So Annals can be attacked on that score.
Aspray: I assume it wasn't one of the leading journals for the publication of statistics either.
Tucker: No, and now that brings up another point. That there have been two other journals edited at Princeton but never thought of as Princeton journals. Annals, that's Princeton. One of these journals is the Journal of Symbolic Logic which was edited for a long time by Alonzo Church.
Aspray: Started in what year?
Tucker: I can't tell you when the Journal of Symbolic Logic started.
Aspray: I believe it was '34, but I'm not certain.
Tucker: I see. I would have thought it was somewhat earlier than that. I don't know that Alonzo Church was ever named as the managing editor of the journal, but for most purposes he was the managing editor. This continued, as a matter of fact, for the Journal of Symbolic Logic until Church retired and then had a career since then at UCLA.
Aspray: So it followed him to UCLA.
Tucker: He followed it. At that particular time I remember my sorrow that the University refused to continue any longer the free space that it was giving for the editing of the Journal of Symbolic Logic. They wanted to charge rent for the space, not for Church's office, but for the couple of assistants who were working on the journal. They were not from Princeton University, and the University was expecting the Association for Symbolic Logic to pay rent, so to speak, for that. It was then that a group at UCLA thought that they would like to take on the journal. They did this and provided a very good home free of charge to the journal and the Association.
They also offered Church a visiting professorship until he would reach the retirement age at the University of California. Even after that he was to have a position with stipend as long as he wanted it. I believe he still has that, although he had his eightieth birthday last summer.
Church was, I feel, never properly appreciated by Princeton University. This was very strange because Church was a Princeton undergraduate, so he counted as a Princeton alumnus in the full sense. All his degrees were from Princeton University, bachelor's degree, master's degree, doctor's degree. But he was so aloof from everything except the Journal of Symbolic Logic. The Dean of the Faculty told me on one occasion that he often met Church crossing the campus, and he would speak to Church and Church would not speak in reply. Things like this, very trivial, nevertheless mitigated against his being given the credit which he merited on scientific grounds.
Aspray: The other journal?
Tucker: The other journal was Annals of Mathematical Statistics which was started in the late Thirties, very close to 1940. Sam Wilks undertook the editorship and I think continued that editorship until the late Forties.
Aspray: Was there some effort to publish statistics prior to this time in Annals of Mathematics? Was there a reluctance on the part of the staff to do so?
Tucker: Well, Annals of Mathematical Statistics was established as the journal of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics.
Aspray: I see.
Tucker: It was started because it seemed that the mathematical qualities of the American Statistical Association, which had existed for some time and which published a journal, had become rather low. So some mathematicians such as [H.L.] Rietz, who was the professor at the University of Iowa with whom Sam did his Ph.D.; and [H.C.] Carver, a mathematical statistician at the University of Michigan, and [Harold] Hotelling, decided to form an organization of their own with the emphasis on mathematical statistics rather than run-of-the-mill statistics. And having set up this Institute of Mathematical Statistics they very naturally decided that they wanted to have a journal, which they called Annals of Mathematical Statistics. The fact that it was called "Annals" had nothing to do, as far as I know, with Annals of Mathematics which was just a name which was often applied to a journal. Wilks did a dandy job of editing that journal and making it a very worthwhile journal.
There were some other publications that arose in the 1930s. In 1933 when the School of Mathematics of the Institute for Advanced Study came to Fine Hall the professors, Weyl, von Neumann, Marston Morse, gave courses of lectures. They were in the habit of doing this in their previous positions, and although there was no requirement that a professor at the Institute for Advanced Study give courses, they did. The lectures were usually there in Fine Hall, in the central lecture room, attended by people who were at the Institute, the members, many of the them post-doctoral people, and by graduate students of the department of mathematics in the University. Indeed often there would be people that came in from neighboring places to follow a course of lectures.
Notes were taken, often by an assistant to the professor. He was given the job of taking notes of the lectures, writing them up, and having them edited by the professor. Then these would be mimeographed, and the people in the course could for, say, a dollar or two subscribe to the notes, which would be turned out in batches a week or two at a time. At the end, if someone wanted to, the accumulated notes could be brought in, and we could send them somewhere to have them bound. I think there was a charge of 25 cents for binding. I have a whole drawer full of these notes. This is the way in which they were bound, and these were lectures by Alonzo Church. Now these notes [showing a set of notes] were taken cooperatively by, these are all graduate students.
Aspray: So there are six or seven people ...
Tucker: Yes, and perhaps two would take notes at the same time and put their notes togethe., Then at another time there would be another pair, and the duty was shared, because Church didn't have an assistant to do this.
Aspray: I see.
Tucker: So it was either done by an assistant, or it was done by volunteers from the class. I happen to have been put in charge of the mimeographing machine by Dean Eisenhart when I began as an instructor in 1933. The mimeographing machine was down in the basement of Fine Hall. Up until that point it had been used without any supervision. The result of this was that various things had gone wrong with the machine, and it was decided that it had to be supervised. Somehow this supervision of the machine turned into it being my job to coordinate all this note business.
For the running of the machine we used student labor. At that time there was a federal program to aid students under the Works Progress Administration, an F.D.R. program. So students could be paid for operating the mimeographing machine, a dollar and a half an hour or something like that. The other problem was collating. This was usually done in the common room around the large table that was in the center of the common room. That table was large enough, more than large enough, to serve as a ping-pong table. And I've known occasions when it was used as a ping-pong table. The piles of page 1, page 2, page 3 would be put around that table. Then we would collect all of the graduate students or others around at that particular time and have a "sorting bee". A person would simply take up a copy of page 1, move on take a copy of page 2, and so we would circulate around the table. Each time you went around the table you had a full copy. So the only cost for these notes was the paper and ink. We charged enough, a dollar a copy, sometimes fifty cents a copy if the set of notes was not very great, to cover these incidental expenses.
But these notes began to be known around the world, and we would get orders for the notes. We would often have to take the stencils and rerun them two or three times, until the stencils were too worn to make additional copies. We sold the copies outside Princeton for the cost in Princeton plus postage. And because of this business, we actually developed an order form that people could use to order copies. Before we realized it we were getting into business.
The first change that was made was to change from mimeographing to lithoprinting. This was done along about 1937 or '38. There was an outfit at that time in Ann Arbor, Michigan by the name of Edwards Brothers that did lithoprinting of course-notes and that sort of thing for the whole country. They had a very efficient operation going there. So we had the course notes lithoprinted instead of mimeographed. We had to charge more for them, but we didn't have all the nuisance of doing it ourselves. Also there was the problem of storage, so we got the Princeton University Press to agree to store them for us. We gradually got them into the business of filling orders from the outside for a 25% commission.
But it still seemed too haphazard, so in 1940 a new publication was started called Annals of Mathematics Studies. Here is one of these early Studies. This is Study Number Six, "The Calculi of Lambda Conversion", by Alonzo Church, 76 pages, $1.25. Done from pretty straight typing, nothing fancy, and we shipped off a typed master copy to Edwards Brothers. In due time they shipped back the number of copies that we had ordered. The minimum order that we used in those days was 200 copies, but it very often rose above that. They were priced so that if we sold the 200 copies we broke even.
Aspray: I see.
Tucker: But we would very often have to do reruns which cost very little, and we made a profit on the reruns. The Princeton University Press accepted responsibility, and you'll see here that this was copyrighted by the Press in 1942. But the Press did not take full responsibility until several years later; it wasn't regarded as a publication of the Press. They stored them, they filled orders, collected 25% handling charge, and the rest of what came in was put in a bank account. I was the only one who could draw from that account, and I used that to pay the bills at Edwards Brothers and any other incidental expenses. We would have to pay for the typing of the manuscript. The present chief secretary here, Genny Dzurkoc, did some of this typing early on with an IBM electric typewriter with a carbon ribbon in order to make a clear sharp impression for the lithoprinting. The first one of these Annals Studies was "The Algebraic Theory of Numbers" by Hermann Weyl, 227 pages, $2.35. The second was one we heard about from John Tukey, "Convergence and Uniformity in Topology" by John W. Tukey, 95 pages, $1.50.
Aspray: But they were all still written by people from the Princeton community.
Tucker: Some of them were written by people who were visitors here. Number Five here is "The Two-Valued Iterative Systems of Mathematical Logic" by Emil L. Post. Now he was not at Princeton. I think he was at Columbia or N.Y.U., but he frequently came to Princeton and did editorial work with Church for the Journal of Symbolic Logic.
There were two reasons for the title Annals of Mathematics Studies. One reason was that the editors of the Annals of Mathematics Studies were nominally the editors of Annals. The other reason was that Lefschetz was anxious to have an escape hatch for long papers that would be sent to Annals. So if they would get a long paperlong by Lefschetz's definition was roughly 100 pagesand felt that it would take up too much of the available space in Annals and delay the publication of other papers, the author would be told that he had two options: to have it published as an Annals of Mathematics Study or to withdraw the paper and try somewhere else. I don't think actually that there were very many cases where the author chose to put it in Annals of Mathematics Studies at that time, because Annals had a regular printed format whereas the Studies had a typewritten format. And at that time Annals of Mathematics Studies seemed second rate in terms of appearance. But as you can tell from the fact that the authors were Hermann Weyl, Gödel ("Consistency of the Continuum Hypothesis" was Number 3 on the list), and F.J. Murray ("An Introduction to Linear Transformation in Hilbert Space").
These were very fundamental monographs that couldn't have been handled at that particular time by a commercial publisher. No commercial publisher would have touched something where he didn't have, say, an expectation of selling 2000 copies. Whereas we were perfectly willing to go ahead with the idea of selling only 200 copies. Nowadays Annals of Mathematical Studies is regarded as a fully reputable form of publication. Just recently we had Volume 100; 1 have it at home. This is Volume 101. So at about the same time that Annals of Mathematics has its 100th Anniversary Annals Studies has passed its hundredth volume because of course two or three or four may have come out in a year. Now very often the Annals Studies is used to present the papers from some conference. It is most often used I think for papers by a group of authors who would like to have their papers appear together, rather than here and there in the journals. In that way it really now has the status of journal publication.
Aspray: I see.
Tucker: Also because it has established itself now, most libraries that want to have a good mathematics library place standing orders for Annals Studies, and when it comes out, it is automatically sent to these libraries. And many libraries shelve Annals Studies all together rather than author by author.
Aspray: I see.
Tucker: Now at the time that Annals Studies was started there was nothing in the way of inexpensive paperback publication of higher mathematics in the United States. In England there was something called the Cambridge Tracts. Of course nowadays there are commercial publishers, Springer and so on, that are putting these things out all the time. So that perhaps at the present time, no one would start Annals Studies, but because it's going, and has almost an established position it keeps on going.
But at the time it was started it filled the void. And I must say that through all the various things that I've had a hand in here at Princeton, there is nothing that gives me greater pride than Annals of Mathematics Studies. My name has never appeared as an editor. I have been responsible for some of the individual studies. There are five studies on contributions to the theory of games that are edited by me. Each one is edited by me and someone else. The first two were edited by me and H.W. Kuhn, but as for the series itself, even though I regard it as my series in the same way that Lefschetz regarded Annals of Mathematics as his baby, my name never appears.
Aspray: I see.
Tucker: I hope that on my tombstone they will put 'Founder of Annals of Mathematics Studies'. Another thing that was started in the Thirties was the Princeton Mathematical Series. This is of regular hardback books. Here is one of the earlier ones by Claude Chevalley. It is Number Eight. One strange thing is in these first eight volumes, three of them have to do with continuous groups. I remember the Princeton University Press at the time having great misgivings that there should be such a redundancy, as they thought. One of these, which is the first volume in the series, The Classical Groups by Hermann Weyl. Number Two, Topological Groups by L. Pontryagin. Number Eight, The Theory of Lie Groups by Claude Chevalley. But oddly enough, these books helped sell one another, so this turned out to be an advantage.
The way this series got going is that there was a mathematical physicist in the department at that particular time, about 1937-38, E.U. Condon. He was at that time the editor of a series of monographs in physics for the publisher Prentice-Hall. He suggested to Prentice-Hall that perhaps Prentice-Hall ought to start a similar series in mathematics. So he came to me one day and said that he would like to take me in to meet some of the people at Prentice-Hall in New York. I went in with him, and there was some general talk, and we had a very nice lunch somewhere and came back to the office of the president of Prentice-Hall. He pulled out a contract and was ready to sign me then and there to edit a series of books for Prentice-Hall. The terms were perhaps fairly generous, that I was to get a two-percent overriding royalty on all books published in this series. But I had to do the reviewing, the refereeing myself, or pay out of my own pocket to have it done.
Aspray: I see.
Tucker: I, being cautious, said that I would like to think about it. I came back to Princeton and went to see Dean Eisenhart. I asked him his advice on it, and I also talked about it with Professor Lefschetz. Eisenhart said quite firmly that he felt that I shouldn't do it. As he said, "if you're going to edit a series of books, I think you should do it for the Princeton University Press." Well, long afterwards I learned that he had been trying for years to get the Princeton University Press to start a series of mathematical books. The Press had always declined to do this, feeling that it would lose money to do a series of mathematics books. But Dean Eisenhart said, "Let me talk to the Press." And he talked to the Press.
This all happened very quickly. His position and the fact that I had this offer from Prentice-Hall ... he argued that since Prentice-Hall was willing to do it, and they weren't willing to take a loss, that the Princeton University Press had nothing to worry about. So a contract was written for a series of mathematical books, and the contract was written for a preliminary five years. The Press was not expected to take more than two books a year and also had the right to submit the manuscripts to their regular editorial committee. And subject to all these conditions the book would be printed with the title the "Princeton Mathematical Series". No royalties to the author or to the editors. But I wasn't at all mercenary, so feeling that I would be doing something that Dean Eisenhart and Professor Lefschetz wanted to have done and that this would presumably be to the credit of Princeton mathematics, I willingly consented to this and gave Prentice-Hall my refusal.
However, because I was at that point still not a tenured member in the departmentI became tenured later that yearit was decided that there should be two others. These were Marston Morse, representing the Institute for Advanced Study, and H.P. Robertson, who was professor of mathematical physics at the University. But throughout the first years of the Princeton Mathematial Series they were more or less figureheads. The series did very well. The five year period ran out while the war was on and nothing was said about it. It wasn't until about eight years that it was finally realized that things were going on without any extension of the contract, so there was an automatic extension to a ten-year contract. At the end of the ten-year contract the Press just took it over completely. In other words, they felt they no longer needed any protection to publish the series, and at that point it was decided to give the authors a regular royalty, the same as would be given by a commercial publisher, ten percent. But no editorial royalty.
I was told many years afterward that a professor at Brown, A.A. Bennett, who took on the editorship for Prentice-Hall, by about 1960 was getting in the neighborhood of $50,000 a year. It was only perhaps at that point that I had any regrets. But Bennett did all the refereeing himself. And he did a very fine job of it, because I remember when John Kemeny and company were having their Introduction to Finite Mathematics published by Prentice-Hall, Bennett went through their manuscript and suggested many changes to them that they adopted and felt had helped a great deal in the production of that book.

I have an opportunity to buy an old model Blackhawk in .30 cal, 7 1/2" barrel in very good condition, for $450. Could use some input as to whether it would be a worthwhile investment. I am a big fan of OM blackhawks but I don't reload and understand most all .30 cal factory loads are more suited for carbines. I'm not a collector so I look to practical uses for my guns. I guess that's the stick, is it practical?

Buy it- Its not a great investment if your just lookin to make a buck tho--- OM's are a bit hard to come by & the 30cal is scarce these days- $450 is fair- not a steal but fair-
Texan By Birth & Choice USMC/VIET NAM VET
I agree with HOSSFLY, if you will ever want one in 30 cal, buy this one. They are seldom seen and the price is about right. Though I like the OM Rugers, I would have zero interest in a 30 cal.
Just walking on the edge of of my grave.
Buy it. They're a hoot to shoot with lots of muzzle flash and noise. OM Blackhawks are built like tanks, so don't concern yourself with wear and tear unless the previous owner mistreated it. The .30 Carbine is essentially a pistol round so ammo shouldn't be an issue.
Buy it. I love old model Blackhawks. I have a .30 carbine in a NM. If nothing else its a conversation starter. The .30 carbine shoots a ball of fire out of the barrel attracts lots of attention.
Buy it! You will never look back! Don put it the best; "It is a pure hoot to shoot." I got mine back in 1983 used for $145. It's Magna-Ported and shooting this puppy at night is like a Pink Floyd concert! The noise, cylinder/forcing cone, Magna-Port and muzzle flash is real graphic! With the 7 1/2" barrel it is deadly accurate. I got a western rig while in Monterrey Mexico for about $22US. I love the looks of the wood stocks but if I'm going to shoot any volume I will put on the Pachmayrs.
Like those wood stocks. I'm buying it. The little woman gets off easy this Christmas. Thanks for the input.
I have a number of Ruger old models but not a .30 cal. I've shot a friend's and I believe it is the loudest pistol I have ever fired and spits fire like a blowtorch. Looks like a good deal...I'd go for it. Best regards Dick

The people of Columbus county need every job they can get. There has got to be something illegal about the way the employees were told they no longer had a job. This is a question of ethics, morals and illegal activity. As a residant of this county I know that his buddy R. C. Soles can remove the smell of ANYTHING he steps into !!!!! Even my 14 yr old knows something like that should have waited til post election results. Either way rumor mill in Columbus county has it he is going to win then stepdown to have democratic party apoint new person. »

The 35-year-old actor became concerned after noticing an unusual patch of skin above his lips and immediately sought medical treatment.
He tells OK magazine, "I went to my dermatologist. He said it was malignant tissue caused by sun damage."
Doctors treated the growth by freezing it off with liquid nitrogen and Dane admits it was a traumatic procedure.
He adds, "My skin is very sensitive and my lip was traumatized by the procedure I had to go through. I didn't eat very well for a couple of weeks and lost a bunch of weight."
Despite dropping over 10 pounds during his ordeal, the actor now insists he is on the road to recovery.

Skin79 Super Plus Beblesh Balm Triple Functions - VIP Gold
Average Rating 4.2/5 |
Review by raini7o5
I haven't tried too many bb creams, but I can say that I wont be looking for any more atm because i'm very much in love with this one. Actually I've only tried about 3, one from missha, skinfood mushroom bb, and another skin79 one (oriental) and I can say, I'm pretty happy with this. I bought mines off of skin79usa.com (a bit pricey compared to ebay sellers, but just want to be safe u know?) all in all, it's pretty sheer but has much better coverage (more matte?) then the oriental and suits my dry skin pretty well. It took care of the blackheads on my nose (not sure how) and my acne scars seemed to be fading, but I break out once in a while still, nothing the bb cream triggered. It also makes my face look dewy and fresh, but not oily kind of glow. overall, this is a pretty decent bb cream. Can't leave the house without this now ><

Baby woodpeckers change construction plans
In early June, just before construction began on a segment of the Gitchi-Gami State Trail through Gooseberry Falls State Park, Park Manager Paul Sundberg and a co-worker noticed a pileated woodpecker nest in a birch tree. It was directly in the path of the new trail.
Sundberg spoke to workers with Nels Nelson and Sons, who readily agreed to spare the tree until after the young woodpeckers learned to fly and left the nest. That should be happening any day now, Sundberg said.

Ok, you are off to a good start – great gallery wall (I appreciate that it isn't just a dinky collection right above the sofa) and your sofa/coffee table are really simple and easy to style with.
So you have a few choices and it really depends on a few questions/answers:
1. How energetic do you want the space to feel? Right now there are no patterns, which is absolutely fine because you do have a lot going on the walls. But if you want the space full of energy then bringing in color/pattern would definitely achieve that. But if you want it to feel less energetic, more calm, then keep to a solid.
2. How low maintenance are you? I love a light rug, truly, but I'm not, well, clean enough to deal with them. Lighter rugs definitely make a room feel bigger, and this room doesn't look that big to me so it could help. But going even more medium toned will be so much easier to care for. I have a white rug in my guest room that is BEAUTIFUL and far away from outdoor spaces, and isn't used often, so its fine. And then in my master bedroom, where I REALLY wanted a light-colored rug I bought this quilted hide because cowhides are pretty much indestructible. You just wipe them off with a wet towel. They are also not terribly cozy, as you can imagine, but they reflect the light in such a pretty way and allow you to have white without the maintenance of white.
So here are some that I like that could look really nice in your place – some more affordable than others. Again, if you like a big high contrast pattern then these might not be the right selection, but I think that in a small space with all the art on the walls that a big high contrast pattern would make the space look small and busy.
The first group is soft texture without much pattern (so easy to hide dirt/stains, but not busy:
1. Safavieh Denim Jute, $199- $299 | 2. Vines Wool Rug, $169 – $999 | 3. Pencil Stripe Rug $195 – $895 4. Harper Denim Rug $195 – $945
Then if you can handle a bit more pattern, I'm pretty into these guys. Again, not toooo busy but busy enough that it adds more energy into the space:
5. Threshold Criss Cross rug $74.99 – $249.99 | 6. Painters Rug $595 – $1595 7. Beaded Rug $149 – $289 | 8. Loloi Rugs, Anzio $139.00 – $539.00 | 9. Scallop Rug, $99 – $199 | 10. Multi Pixel Rug $249 – $999.
Finally, if you want to splurge on a white cowhide, I love these guys very much:
11. Natural Hide Rug $695 – $1900 | 12. Scallop cowhide $495 – $2950 | Bristol Cowhide $713 | 14. Jasmine Cowhide $549 – $976

New XActo Z series blades
Has anyone tried these new blades?
http://www.dickblick.com/products/x-...series-blades/ Had a 55% off coupon for Michael's, so I picked up a 3 pack. Interested to see if they are better than stainless steel #11 blades. |

I own and have xacto knives but have not been impressed overall with them over the years. Possibly this is because I like many started out using our fathers double edge safety razor blades. They were and still are laminated steel and carbon type blades and really sharp. Stainless blades do not seem to have as good a cutting edge and are thicker usually. Actually for my balsa working planes I still access the same blades out of india on ebay. Apparently the third world still usues the double edged blades and they are cheap. Even many brand names are listed that were originally popular in north america. Pretty inexpensive as well. Or if I go without shaving for several days. I use them in a safety razor as otherwise they block the blade with whisker hairs on the typical disposable common shaving tools. You just loosen the handle to wash and clean a safety razor out. The round shape of the exacto handle has not been redesigned either and could be better in my opinion. It seems awkward to me in comparison to other tools on the market. Plus too many people have foot scars from them rolling off the edge.These are just my opinions and others may feel totally otherwise, |
Dec 04, 2012, 02:34 PM | |
Many years ago I bought a 100 pack of AmericanLine blades at a hobby show. When I ran out, I couldn't find a source so i went back to Xacto- big disappointment. Then Xacto came out with a blue steel blade, touted to be better than their standard #11. Bought them - more disappointment!
I hope the new Xacto works. The really good news for me, is I found a convenient source of the AmericanLine. The OSH hardware chain carries both the #11 and the razor blades. Here's the link: http://www.osh.com/eng/product/ameri...blades/6637151 The test I use for sharpness, is to make a cut across the grain on a very soft piece of balsa wood. A dull blade mashes the wood, sharp blade leaves a very clean cut. I don't have a good test for durability. Let us know what you think of the new Xacto! - Norm |
Dec 05, 2012, 03:41 PM | |
For holding my various knives, I bought one of these Xacto knife holders (used a 55% off coupon from Michaels' ... ended up about $4.99 I think).

Generally, I've found that ranks hackers usually get away with a bunch of shit, so I never really take online leaderboards seriously. I remember Game Informer had something that highlighted the top "legitimate" player for a certain game which was pretty cool.
" I did it on accident one time, I switched to a different character after dying and wasn't even looking at the time elapsed after I finished. I only noticed it recorded 0.0 when I was looking at the leader boards on several maps. "Yeah, I noticed I accidentally did it but I decided to exit to the dashboard instead of finishing the level. Glad they are fixing it though. :)

No Walk Of Shame For Di Canio
Paolo Di Canio says that next time his players are walking around the Stadium of Light saluting the fans, he wants it to be a lap of honour not a walk of shame.
Paolo Di Canio: "Next season, we want to make sure that the last lap will be a moment when we can smile because we have done something special during the season."That might not be win the league, but to win a cup or or to have stayed up with six games at least remaining."If it's with 12 games to go that we are guaranteed staying up, then we might be challenging for the Champions League!"But even if it's with four games to go, you can finish in the top half from that position."In my opinion, I'm sure we're going to change next season and then the story will turn."I'm sure I'm right about this.
"The club wanted to do something public to show us thanking the fans and I completely understand that – that lap we did was in appreciation of their fantastic support."But a few players said to me afterwards that it left a bad taste because the Southampton performance was not one to be proud of."And it left a bad taste with me too in being applauded by the fans when we still weren't completely sure of Premier League safety."But these are things that we have to remember and build on."One of main motivations next season should be in ensuring that next time we walk out in front of our fans in the final game of the season at the Stadium of Light, we can be proud of what we have done for them."

Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
Schaub (elbow) returned to practice Monday, Scott Bair of CSN California reports.
Less than an hour after word leaked of Schaub losing the starting quarterback job to Derek Carr, the veteran fit in his first activity since last Wednesday. Schaub even lined up and completed a short pass, according to Jerry McDonald of the Oakland Tribune, which doesn't exactly infer that his health has improved much. Nonetheless, Schaub has little chance to regain relevance in the first few weeks, barring a sudden downturn in Carr's play.
Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
Schaub has been usurped by rookie Derek Carr for the Week 1 start Sunday at the Jets, Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reports.
Schaub's bout with a sore elbow hindered his ability to stake much of a claim to the gig, while Derek Carr shined against mostly second- and third-stringers. Carr concluded the preseason by completing 11-of-13 passes for 143 yards and three touchdowns, which was seemingly enough to surpass Schaub, the veteran.
Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
Raiders coach Dennis Allen said Friday that the team expects to know its Week 1 starting quarterback by Monday, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Allen's statement essentially confirms that the Raiders have a decision to make between Schaub (elbow) and Derek Carr, the latter of whom was far more impressive during the preseason. Schaub struggled in the exhibition games and is now dealing with a sore elbow, after completely falling apart in Houston last season. Though the Raiders expect to make a decision by Monday, Allen indicated that the announcement may not come until later.
Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
Though earlier in the week coach Dennis Allen indicated that he believed Schaub (elbow soreness) would be healthy enough to play in Week 1, the coach suggested Thursday night that the team still needs to see where Schaub is at health-wise in advance of the team's season opener, ESPN.com reports.
Schaub's sore elbow and spotty preseason results, combined with Derek Carr's sharp play in Thursday's preseason finale, have led Vic Tafur of sfgate.com to suggest that the rookie QB is a candidate to start the team's season opener against the Jets. Expect continued speculation regarding the matter in the coming days, though at this stage, it's unclear when Allen plans to confirm the Raiders' starter for the team's regular season opener.
Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
After fitting in some light throws Wednesday, Schaub (elbow) will do so again Monday to discover his level of health, Albert Breer of NFL Network reports.
As a result, Schaub's sore right elbow should keep him sidelined during Thursday's preseason finale versus the Seahawks. After three underwhelming exhibitions in which he completed just 51.1 percent (24-for-47) of his passes, tendinitis emerged as the culprit, with rest the recommended remedy. The Raiders expect him to reach the requisite level of health to start in the regular season opener on Sept. 7 at the Jets, but rookie Derek Carr (ribs) is waiting in the wings in case Schaub is deemed inactive.
Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
Schaub (elbow) is not expected to play in Thursday's preseason finale, CSN California reports.
Schaub has missed the past three practices due to soreness in his elbow, which is believed to have tendinitis as well. While rookie Derek Carr is slated to start Thursday's last exhibition outing, Schaub remains on track to be ready to start Week 1 of the regular season.
Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
Schaub missed his second straight day of practice Monday due to soreness in his throwing elbow, the San Jose Mercury News reports.
That said, coach Dennis Allen doesn't view Schaub's elbow issue as a serious injury, with the report noting that the veteran QB remains on track to the start the Raiders' regular season opener, Sept. 7 against the Jets. When quizzed about the similarities between Schaub's current elbow woes and those of Matt Flynn, who lost his job last year to Terrelle Pryor in advance of Week 1, Allen replied, "I don't see those two situations as the same."
Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
With Schaub missing practice Sunday due to a sore elbow, Derek Carr worked with the Raiders' first team offense in his place, sfgate.com reports. "We'll see where (Schaub's) at tomorrow and kind of take that day-by-day," coach Dennis Allen noted Sunday.
In three preseason games thus far, Schaub has completed 24-of-47 passes for 218 yards, with an interception, with questions about his arm strength having cropped up in the process. The report notes that the veteran QB is scheduled to talk to reporters after practice Monday, with NFL.com's Ian Rapoport suggesting that Schaub's elbow issue is believed to be a case of tendinitis, with no major structural damage in play.
Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
Schaub is dealing with a sore elbow, Jerry McDonald of the Oakland Tribune reports.
Schaub's injury is not believed to be serious, but it prevented him from practicing Sunday, and he will be evaluated daily moving forward. It remains to be seen if the setback will threaten his chances of playing in Week 1.
Matt Schaub QB OAK 6 Months
Schaub completed 13-of-27 passes for 110 yards in Friday's preseason game against the Packers.
Despite his awful preseason, Schaub is seemingly locked in as the Week 1 starter. Derek Carr (concussion) did not play in Friday's game after performing well in the Raiders' second exhibition contest, but he may be healthy in time for the regular season. If Schaub doesn't improve in a hurry, he won't hold on to the starting job for long.

"It was around eight o'clock that night, and we were just getting ready to have supper when a gush of water came into our house," the 84-year-old recalls in a soft, husky voice. "The wind took off the top of our house, and a lot of the shacks were torn down. I remember that our family Bible, where my birth date was listed, got lost that night. And up until I was 65, when I found old census records, I believed I had been born in 1918, not 1916."
While Tillman's family lost many treasures, it survived the fathomless torrent. An estimated 2000 people, including many black migrant farm workers in the Glades near Lake Okeechobee, weren't so lucky. In the weeks following the storm, their decomposing bodies floated alongside the carcasses of dogs and cattle.
Fearful of the spread of disease, the American Red Cross and the military scrambled to bury the bodies. Some of the corpses were burned on large pyres, others were buried in a mass grave in nearby Port Macaya, and still others were brought to Tillman's neighborhood just off Tamarind Avenue at 25th Street.
Like many survivors Tillman was asked to help toss the remains into a huge pit on 1.5 acres of undeveloped land. "We had to wear masks, and they gave us special stuff to wash our hands," he says. "They had fished their bodies out of the water with nets, and they brought them in dump trucks. The bodies were all mutilated, and there was no way you could identify anybody."
Today Tillman, a semiretired real-estate agent, lives in a house only four blocks from his childhood home, which stands on cinder blocks, empty and shotgun-shack narrow, with graffiti on the front door. Just around the block, the mass grave looks unremarkable, a wide-open parcel of fenced land where tall weeds give no clue of what lies beneath. But that may change soon. In December, after more than five years of nudging from grassroots activists, the City of West Palm Beach agreed to spend $180,000 to buy the land from local exterminator Jim Kolkana.
So far no decision has been made about what to do with the property. While a group called the Storm of '28 Coalition, formed in 1992 to draw attention to the gravesite, advocates a memorial, Tillman believes people should know about more than just the storm. He wants the neighborhood's rich history to be preserved and honored. "Everybody has been talking about how to identify the bodies and what type of monument should go there," Tillman says. "They've all been wasting time."
The city has committed millions of dollars to help commercial developments like CityPlace, Tillman points out. He wants to see more public support for his neighborhood, which is blighted like much of black urbania. "What the city needs to remember is that this whole place is historic. If they worked it out right, it could be turned into something where people could come and learn about the culture and history of blacks who built these streets."
In fact Tillman's parents were pioneers. His mother, Laura, was a seamstress and his father, Will, owned one of the area's first service stations. Their work ethic and sense of entrepreneurship inspired Tillman to become the first licensed black Realtor in West Palm Beach in 1962. He says he has sold or resold many of the area's one- and two-bedroom homes, which range from dilapidated to quaint and are, on average, valued at $50,000 to $60,000. Tillman's threadbare pants and scruffy side-zipper boots seem to indicate he hasn't gotten rich off real estate, an idea that draws nothing more than a muffled huff in reply.
In fact Tillman nearly lost his home this past February because family members had borrowed money and not repaid it. After The Palm Beach Post broke the story, philanthropic citizens donated $54,000 to keep his property out of foreclosure.
In the passenger seat of a Buick, Tillman scowls and fiddles with a seat belt while directing a visitor up one narrow street and down the next. He occasionally asks the visitor to stop the car when a memory overtakes him. Pointing to a narrow, vacant lot between two houses, where clothes flutter on a laundry line, Tillman remembers playing kickball in the 1920s. "They used to call this Tin Pan Alley," he recalls, "because of how families had to build the streets by lining them with metal cans."
Two blocks north, crossing railroad tracks that run behind a lumberyard and sheet-metal factories, Tillman enters Evergreen Cemetery, which hotel workers and businessmen established in 1913 for black citizens. "There was no way white folks wanted to be buried alongside us," says Tillman. "But we wanted something else besides Potter's Field, so this was something nice." (West Palm Beach's Potter's Field is a vacant plot of land one street away from the mass grave on Tamarind Avenue.)

Measured growth. That is the best way to sum up the manufacturing investment activity of the pharmaceutical majors during the past year. Companies continue to implement restructuring programs as a way to reduce costs and optimize their manufacturing and supply networks. Investment, when it is made, is primarily in biologic-based manufacturing and emerging markets, with a few select projects proceeding in established product and geographic markets.
Company investment
Novartis. In 2010, Novartis initiated a company-wide program to review its manufacturing footprint, which progressed in 2011, with major goals to create manufacturing centers of excellence, reduce its cost structure, and enhance utilization rates at strategic sites to 80% of capacity. To these ends, the company has announced the exit or partial exit of 14 sites since the program started in 2010. In Liverpool, UK, and Marburg, Germany, Novartis discontinued certain manufacturing activities to consolidate its influenza-vaccine platforms. Novartis also divested the pharmaceuticals division's sites in Casablanca, Morocco, and Huningue, France, and Sandoz (the generic-drug business of Novartis) sites in Jena, Germany, and Buenos Aires, Argentina. The company also discontinued pharmaceuticals manufacturing at sites in Tlalpan, Mexico, and Horsham, UK, and exited CIBA Vision production sites in Cidra, Puerto Rico, and Farnham, UK. Additionally, the company announced the discontinuation of certain manufacturing activities at its CIBA Vision site in Atlanta, Georgia, and the consolidation of pharmaceutical chemical operations in Switzerland, as well as closure of its chemical operations in Torre, Italy.
Novartis continues to make progress in the long-term redevelopment of its St. Johann headquarters site in Basel, Switzerland. This project, called "Campus," started in 2001 with the aim of transforming the site from one of primarily pharmaceutical production into a center of knowledge with a primary emphasis on international corporate functions and research activities. Through Dec. 31, 2011, the total amount paid and committed to be paid on the Campus Project was $2.1 billion. The company expects that through 2015, it will spend more than $2.5 billion and transfer production facilities to other sites in the Basel region.
