This was far more interesting than I was expecting it to be.
And what's up with 1938?
[Video Link]. YouTube viewer comment: "I liked the part where they played the opening chords of the symphony."
(thanks, Joe Sabia!)
It's been nearly 20 years since the publication of Bellwether, Connie Willis's comic novel about scientists caught in the turmoil of bureaucratic fads. I had very fond memories of this book, though I hadn't read it in more than a decade, so I gave the DRM-free audiobook a whirl, and fell in love with it […]
Yesterday, MTV, which surprisingly still exists, remembered that its name is an acronym for Music Television, and launched a Prince music video marathon. Unfortunately, they accidentally slipped a Fresh Prince video in there too. (Cinemablend) It's been so long since MTV played music videos, they forgot that Prince and Fresh Prince are two different people […]

This was far more interesting than I was expecting it to be.
And what's up with 1938?
Indeed. Just two chords and you can glimpse an infinity of possibilities.
It was far more interesting than I expected also! I'm listening again.
Dude. Somebody's flat.
No! No! Stop it! It's a sin! It's a sin! Using Ludwig Van like that! He did no harm to anyone!
Furtwangler always was a rusher.
I liked that part too!
Why did this remind me of Dramatic Gopher? Too much internet?
I hear the difference in the tuning of the orchestra on each recording, and it makes me CRINGE. Really really neat though.
Karajan did it best, as usual…
It was interesting to hear all the different concert pitches used. The two main ranges seemed to be those using "standard pitch" of A=440Hz (the higher sounding ones) and those using "classical pitch" of A=430Hz (the lower sounding ones). A=430Hz is probably the most historically accurate for Mozart, but standards have ranged over time from 392Hz (French Baroque) to 466Hz (Renaissance).
Beyond that, although "standard pitch" is A=440Hz, major orchestras in New York (NY Phil), Boston (BSO), Los Angeles (LA Phil), France, Italy, and Scandinavia use A=442Hz and major orchestras in Germany, Austria, Russia, Sweden, and Spain use A=443Hz.
Cool comment is cool.
You're a viola player, aren't you?
And the timer on how long it takes before there's a dubstep remix starts … now.
Reminds me of Inception
What's with Barbirolli at 1'22" – who played an F?
That didn't sound right to me, so I checked my own collection. This is the opening of the second movement ("Allegro con brio"), not the opening of the whole symphony ("Scherzo", which starts at almost a whisper).
EDIT: never mind, apparently I've had these tracks mislabeled for some time. :(
Is that reverb/echo in 1966… or is that flutes and strings carrying on after the orchestra hits?
listening to this filled me with a sudden nostalgia for Tower Records Classical Annex in San Francisco, a place where I could go and the sales staff could actually have an intelligent conversation with you about the merits of various recordings. Ah, those were the days my friend. . .
I got yelled at by a clerk in the Annex when I tried to buy a $3 CD containing a recording of Holst "The Planets". I didn't care which recording of the Planets it was I just needed the disc for cheap. his first remark, "this won't be a good you know?" without actually looking at the disc. I defended my choice saying, "it's for my class tomorrow. I'm playing it on a mono speaker in a Mac which will do more damage than…" I had to look at the details myself to find the Conductors name. the clerk perked up… "oh actually this just might be okay." and proceeded to be a font of knowledge about that guy.
I really don't miss that place, condescending music clerks, or having to DRIVE to buy music.
Sounds like you were very lucky to get such a knowledgeable and caring clerk. I didn't know there were such things as music clerks.
Someone please put up 2012 8-bit version now.
Great. Now I've got musicosis.
The YouTube comment reminded me of that Chris Farley skit:"R-remember when you did that thing in that movie and then this other thing happened?"
"Heh…that was awesome."
Summary: James Levine Rocks; Christopher Hogwood needs to get his ears checked out.
Quick! Someone call Dr Ellie Arroway!
ahecht, your comment about the concert pitch where classical period practice uses A at 430 hz instead of 440 reminds me of a pitch discrimination experiment I once participated in. One finding was that people tended to hear micro intervals as half steps even though they are smaller, so the 10 hz difference in tuning made the chords sound to me like D major instead of the E-Flat major chord Beethoven wrote.
Also I recall that B. originally thought of a V7-I chord seq. in the sketches,as in the opening of the First Symphony.
Cincinnatti, 1980: You weren't even trying.
An aural journey across a century of shrinking attention spans: faster pussycat, saw saw!
I vote for the Munich Philharmonic (Oswald Kabasta, 1943), although there is much to be said for the Chicago Symphony (George Solti, 1989).
Am I the only one reminded of the alien ship sound from Kirk and Spock Save the Whales? Compare as we dare… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN-eBlEeHSA
I really liked the variety of aural focuses (focii?), especially in the beginning. I assume the earliest recordings were made in mono, and later transcription to stereo CD made the difference, but even so: you can clearly hear how different microphone placements lead to different perspectives on the orchestra. Sadly, (or perhaps not), as we get closer to today the soundstage seems to become fairly standardized. Someone must have made "the" recording, and all subsequent sound engineers have taken that as the proper way to mic this music.
A personal bonus: things like this help justify my having a set of studio-quality monitor speakers above my screens (Rogers LS3-5A), instead of a pair of cheap and nasty desktop speakers. Makes it so easy to retrieve detail.
No one has posted about the difference in the quality and quantity of sound depending on the recording venues. I can hear the grand halls reverberating in some of these recordings, while in others the orchestras seem sort of disembodied with no space or air between the notes.
Fascinating stuff, but hardly EVERY recording. In fact, it runs maybe 300 short of the total! Eric Grunin's An Eroica Project lists them all. It appears to be offline right now, but it's worth checking up on later:

Five Festive Treatments at San Francisco Spas
The flavors of the holidays make for many culinary delights. That is a given. Pumpkin, cranberry, apple, vanilla, cinnamon and peppermint are flavors that reoccur every year, yet always seem fresh. At a time when calendars quickly fill up and consumption of all sorts is increased, taking the time to indulge in you should be a priority. And receiving the gift of relaxation and indulgence is one of the best ideas around. Several local spas have tweaked their menus to include seasonal ingredients. We pick five of the most delicious.

Do Good on Friday, and Macy's Street Teams May Give You $25

When they spot a deserving individual, street teams will reward them for their positive deeds and acts of kindness with $25 Macy's Believe Bonus cards, good toward future purchases at the department store.
The promotion is part of Macy's National Believe Day, which encourages the spirit of the season through various charitable initiatives.

Not in the Holiday Spirit Yet? Chanticleer Can Help.
At 8 p.m. last Saturday, in a pitch-black St. Ignatius Church, an audience of some 1,300 people sat motionless in the dark. What kept us that way was was 12 male voices, unaccompanied by anything but candlelight and including one astonishing soprano, singing 15th-century plainsong. I couldn't get a photo, of course, so the above shot (of Chanticleer rehearsing before the show) will have to do. There's something about this music that made me think, Why bother with anything else that's been composed in the last, oh, six hundred years?

Need for Comprehensive Postal Reform
GAO-04-455R: Published: Feb 6, 2004. Publicly Released: Feb 25, 2004.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-6670
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
This letter responds to a request by the Chairman, Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs, for GAO's views on the need for postal reform and is based upon prior testimonies related to this issue. Since the Postal Service's transformation efforts and financial outlook had been placed on GAO's High-Risk List in April 2001, the Comptroller General has testified on several occasions about the governance, financial, operational, and human capital challenges that threaten the Service's ability to carry out its mission. If not effectively addressed in a timely manner, these challenges serve to threaten the Service's ability to remain self-supporting while providing affordable, high-quality, and universal postal services to all Americans.
The following key trends serve to reinforce GAO's view that enactment of postal reform legislation is needed: (1) declining mail volume; (2) changes in the mail mix; (2) increased competition from private delivery companies; (4) subpar revenue growth; (5) declining capital investment; (6) renewed difficulties in substantially improving postal productivity; (7) significant financial liabilities and obligations; (8) uncertain funding for emergency preparedness; and (9) challenges to achieve sufficient cost cutting. GAO does not believe that incremental steps toward postal transformation can resolve the fundamental and systemic issues associated with the Service's current business model. To avoid the risk of a significant taxpayer bailout or dramatic postal rate increases, Congress should enact comprehensive postal reform legislation that includes the Service's overall statutory framework, resolution of issues regarding the Service's pension and retiree health benefits obligations, and whether there is a continued need for an escrow account. The key areas of the Service's statutory framework that need to be addressed include: (1) clarifying the Service's mission and role; (2) enhancing governance, transparency, and accountability; (3) improving flexibilities and oversight; and (4) making needed human capital reforms.

I read the tutorials to make a mimalistic custom kernel from here and am able to boot it up as explained in the tutorial over a virtual machine using GRUB as the boot loader.
I think it would be more fun if I could do the same over bare hardware using a bootable pendrive.
Q1. I thought of using the normal procedure of making a bootable linux pendrive, but my kernel isnt really an iso image, its an elf format executable. Will the normal method work if I somehow convert it to iso format ?
Q2. Any other ideas / link to some resource how I should proceed ?
P.S. : Its absolutely minimal kernel. Just boots up, prints something on console and can handle keyboard events, thats it.

Filmed in 2006 at her upstate New York home and during the installation of "Buckets of Rain" (2006) in New York City, Judy Pfaff discusses the emotional and creative journey she goes on while conceptualizing, making, and ultimately looking back at her installations. Pfaff, who begins creating with a sense of what she wants her work to feel like but with very few concrete ideas, relies upon unplanned elements to enter the art so that she herself is surprised with the results.

Le Soleil de Boracay
When I read that Le Soleil de Boracay was steps away from Boracay's White Beach, I envisioned a property with beach access. I was, however, proven wrong on a recent trip to the hotel. I discovered to my surprise that this hotel was situated right on the beach. In fact, my driver and I had to get off at an alley close by and make the rest of the journey (about a two minute walk) on foot, as motorised vehicles were not allowed on the beach.

Red Coconut Beach Hotel
Arriving at the Red Coconut Beach Hotel, I was delighted to learn of its prime location in the heart of Boracay's White Beach, within walking distance of the most happening entertainment hubs, restaurants with the freshest seafood and shopping attractions.

"I've purchased two MBT shoes recently to replace the MBT's I bought several years ago. When they went out of business for awhile, I tried substitute shoes. But there is no substitute for MBTs. I have an artificial knee and a fused foot. With MBTs my joints are cushioned like shock absorbers. My posture is better. My energy level is higher. I sleep better and get more done. PLUS, I do not use my orthotics with MBTs. These shoes may have been designed scientifically. But their effect is almost miraculous to me. I feel stronger, mentally sharper and can walk longer with no fatigue. I would highly recommend them to anyone with feet or knee problems. And if you don't like them, Footwear etc. will take them back no problem and no questions asked. And I know why-- because MBTs are that good."

Did you see the little R2D2?
Are these the "tubes" that Senator Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) talked about?
Check out one of the offices, there is a guy with a laptop and desktop on, check out what video he is playing.
Private joke ? When you stroll in the datacenter you can see this screen : "Super secret strategic pue plan"
I'd feel much better if there was a Jedi or two guarding the data center. Those storm troopers drop like flies!
Lesotho is one of the most unique countries on the planet. It's the southernmost landlocked country, the largest country that's entirely surrounded by another country, and the highest country on Earth. Yet, it doesn't really show up on too many people's radar. With the arrival of Google Street View imagery this month to Lesotho, it's time to shed some light on the world's largest enclave.
We've visited a few solar power generation facilities in the past, but here is a roundup of solar power towers…

Love brings hope to Next Act Theatre's 'Grace'
When the lights come up on Craig Wright's "Grace" - now at Next Act Theatre, under David Cecsarini's direction - a man is holding a gun to his head, having just murdered the woman and man sprawled nearby. We can guess what happened with this love triangle. But how? And why?
With the whodunit out of the way, "Grace" tries to answer those questions by taking us back three months and starting over. During the ensuing two hours, we'll move forward in time toward that climactic scene with which the play began. »Read Full Article

Quantum Key West 2013 - Dandy opener in Miami for J's
by Bill Wagner on 22 Jan 2013
J/70 boats in action at Quantum Key West 2013 Leighton O'Connor
The opening day of Quantum Key West Race Week 2013 has been splendid for the participating crews of J boats, who started their respective competitions with perfect sailing condition.
The first day of sailing could not have turned out nicer for the start of Key West Race Week. For many, its why the sailors come back for more every year to this corner of the far western Caribbean. With gorgeous aquamarine waters punctuated by white, torn cotton cumulus scudding across sunlit skies, it's not hard to imagine the sailing is second to none. Today's weather forecasts of light n'ne winds of four to eight knots for Monday and building late in the afternoon to eight to 13 knots from the NW meant the fleet was going to be in for some unusual strategies going around the race course. Would the sailors follow the classic tactics of going into the island, or go left and pray the weather forecasters were wrong?! The chutes and ladders results in the J/70 class were certainly an indicator that ideas ranged across the board.
In the J/70 class, all the sailors were going into the first day of racing with wide-open expectations about what might happen on the race track. With a fleet deeply-laden with talent, the outcomes for the first two races were going to help the teams learn more about how their boats were going to perform against their colleagues. With two races behind them, it was pretty clear one team had the day 'dialed in', with Joe Collings from Ohio and friend Dave Ullman and Tommie Lihan scoring an impressive 2-2 to lead the fleet. Just behind them in second place is Brian Elliott on B-Squared with a 4-7; Bob Hughes on Heartbreaker with a 1-12 tied with Ryan Ruhlman on Spaceman Spiff with an 8-5; and lying fifth is Cole Allsop on Moxie with a 5-10. In the J/70 Corinthian Division, Brian Elliott on B-Squared is leaded with a 1-1, Chris Carroll on Torqeedo is second with a 2-4 and Kathy Parks and husband Paul Parks are third on Sundog with a 6-2.
The PHRF Racers had some incredibly tight racing on the Division Three course. In PHRF 1, a familiar name as at the top of the heap, with Robin Team's J/122 Teamwork sailing to a 1-2 and holds a narrow edge over Jim Bishops J/44 White Gold with a 3-1 and Bob Hesse's J/111 Lake Effect in third with a 2-3. In PHRF 2, Bill Sweetser's J/109 Rush leading the fleet with a 2-1.
In the J/80s Ron Buzil and Andrew Kerr on Vayu 2 from Chicago had a good day, posting a 1-2 to lead their fleet. Second is John Krediet on Participant III with a 2-2 and third is Willy T with a 3-3 for third.
Bill Wagner from Premier Racing had a chance to wander the docks and chat with some of the J/70 teams that are participating in the event. One of them was Tate Russack sailing Diesel. Tate Russack was looking for a small sailboat he could trailer to major regattas around the country. The Annapolis resident liked everything about the new J/70 sloop and pulled the trigger on purchasing one when he learned enough had been sold to sustain viable one-design racing. 'J/Boats has upped the ante on the sport boat market with this design. It's easy to sail, but highly competitive,' Russack said. Russack was pleasantly surprised to see 23 boats show up for the Fall Brawl, hosted by Eastport Yacht Club in early November. He is downright shocked that a whopping 39 boats will be on the start line at Quantum Key West 2013, making J/70 the largest fleet at the annual midwinter regatta. 'It's really amazing how fast this class has exploded,' he said. 'This regatta is filled with a bunch of top-notch sailors. Having a fleet as competitive as this is great; what better way to gauge yourself?'
Russack and his team on Diesel won the EYC Fall Brawl, a very competitive two-day event that ended with the top three finishers separated by just five points. North Sails professional Allan Terhune served as tactician for Russack in Annapolis and will do so again in Key West. 'Allan is unbelievable, like a gift from the sailing gods. I can't tell you how many times we had a bad start and Allen brought us back by calling all the wind shifts,' Russack said of Terhune's performance at the Fall Brawl. While Russack was the winner of the only J/70 regatta held to date, he is not the favorite here in Key West. That's because several renowned professionals such as Tim Healy, Kerry Klingler and Dave Ullman have joined the class. 'We're ready for the regatta. We've done a lot of work with the boat and practiced to hone our skills,' Russack said. 'It's an extremely competitive fleet and all we can do is sail to the best of our ability and let the chips fall where they will.'
Designed by Al Johnstone, the J/70 is a 22-foot sport boat with all carbon-fiber rigging and an asymmetrical spinnaker that gets the boat planning downwind in about 14 knots. Russack said the boat 'lends itself to highly technical sailing' in terms of tuning the rig and adjusting the sail trim to fit certain conditions. These boats are really fun and exciting. When you put the spinnaker up, it's like going to warp speed. The boat just takes off. It also has very good acceleration upwind.'
The J/70 has taken the sailing world by storm with J/Boats having already sold 350 of the small one-design racers. Rod Johnstone, founder of J/Boats, said the company felt there was a void in the market for a club racer that could be ramp launched and garage stored, and clearly that assessment was correct. 'The J/70 is stable enough that an average sailor can handle it and seaworthy enough that it can be raced in any venue,' Johnstone said. 'It's got a great cockpit that easily fits four people and steers really well. We were very disciplined in keeping the boat simple and economical.' Many top-notch skippers that have captured major championships in other one-design classes have jumped into the J/70, including Klingler (J/80), Healy (J/24) and Ullman (Melges 24). Johnstone said J/Boats had sailors of that caliber test drive prototypes and offer input for improvements. 'When the wind hits the sails of this boat it really responds. It's a fast, lively boat that planes quickly downwind and points well upwind,' Johnstone said. 'We feel it's a good family boat because you don't need a bunch of experts to sail it safely.'
Key West will serve as the inaugural midwinter championship for the class and will mark the largest gathering of J/70s to date. 'Key West has always been a tremendous showcase for any new design and we are looking forward to really launching the J/70 to a wider audience with great competition at one of the world's most renowned regattas,' Johnstone said. 'We debuted the J/24 in Key West back in January, 1978 so this is like going back to where it all started for our company.'
Brian Keane, a past winner at Key West in both the J/105 and J/80 classes, is among the owners impressed enough to buy a J/70 and is eager to test his new toy against such a deep fleet. 'It's truly amazing for a brand new boat to be the largest class at such a quality regatta as Key West,' Keane said. 'I'm really impressed with the caliber of sailors in the fleet. This is going to be hot competition and a lot of fun.'
Klingler noted that all the owners are still learning the boat, particularly how to handle the oversized spinnaker that will be critical to success.
Johnstone, who will be racing with son Jeff, said he is 'prepared for mayhem' in the inevitable windy conditions. His other son, current J/Boats president Al Johnstone, was the chief designer of the J/70. Ullman has a somewhat selfish reason for joining the class. Obviously, the West Coast sailmaker wants to sell his product to this suddenly burgeoning market.
Ullman, who is calling tactics for Joseph Colling in Key West, could not think of another class that has grown so quickly. 'I've never seen anything like this, especially in what was considered a down market. J/Boats found the right niche and the right time,' said Ullman, who did not hesitate when asked why the design has been so successful. 'Price point, quality of construction, timing. They just hit it all. Apparently, they've had this on the boards for a while and picked the right time to go.'

Don't Forget to Deduct the Cost of Medical Travel
MainStreet) -- One medical deduction that is often overlooked is the cost of traveling to and from doctors, dentists, therapists, hospitals, clinics and the like to get medical care. Your insurance company may cover the cost of the actual medical care, but it rarely if ever reimburses you for your transportation. If you take a taxi, bus, train, airplane or ambulance you can deduct the actual expense. If you drive you can deduct 23 cents per mile in lieu of gas and oil, plus any parking fees and tolls.You can also deduct round-trip travel to visit a sick spouse or dependent if the visits are recommended by a doctor as part of the patient's treatment. Keep a log of your medical travel during the year. This can be as simple as making a note of the location, round-trip miles and parking and tolls for each trip in a pocket datebook. The cost of lodging while away from home primarily for and essential to medical care by a doctor at a licensed hospital or similar facility is also deductible -- up to a maximum of $50 per night. Meals while away from home overnight for medical care are not deductible. You can deduct the cost of the hotel room, but not the dinner bill. The lodging expenses of a person accompanying a patient, such as a parent or a spouse, are also deductible, up to the same $50 per night, if that person's presence is primarily for and essential to the patient's care.NEW YORK (

I have looked at so many Tiffany lamps thru various web sites. There are several I have liked, but when I saw these two I fell in LOVE with them! After I got them and plugged them in - I was blown away by the magnificent colors + the base lighting! They look like the were made foor my living room end tables. Such a joy to hve them on at night while watching televisdion.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The colors are more brilliant than they look on the computer.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. The quality of these lamps are impeciable - every piece of glass and all details.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Description of product was correct - but can't describe the difference in person - magnificent colors.
I had been looking for a tiffany lamp for a while. They area so expensive and it was difficult to find the style I wanted. when I saw this lamp on amazon I was ecstatic and when it came to the house I was thrilled. It is exactly what I wanted and I love it.
The lamp was true to color shown on line. It is beautiful and colorful! The night light in the base is one of the most attractive features. It is lovely even if the bulbs are not glowing, but brings a colorful sparkle into the room when it is illuminated. I would purchase this lamp again!
This lamp is in my spare bedroom and adds the perfect ambiance that will delight all my future guests. Note that the brilliant colors that are displayed in the picture are similar when the lamp is ON. In the OFF position, the colors are not this bright, especially the green. Still, the overall look of this lamp is elegant. I have over a dozen of these Tiffany-style lamps, and this is in the top 3 of my favorite......
I bought the lamp in blues and greens and am quite happy with it. It's sturdy and looks very pretty when lit up at night. Be aware that the shade is wide; this is not a petite lamp. The one drawback for me is the light at the bottom is very faint. I would like the base to be brighter.
I have been looking at many different Tiffany Style lamps. This Victorian style lamp is a true gem. The small blub in the base can serve as a nightlight. This lamp color (green, blue, red) works well in a earthtone home decor. It is an eye catching lamp of good quality.
The colors are different than it appears but its a beautiful, very large lamp
A stunning lamp. The lower night light is pretty dim though, but still beautiful
I love this lamp the colors are beautiful it's setting on my desk
Such gorgeous vibrant colors and lovely design that it always elicits complements. It is very attractive even when it is not lit, unlike some Tiffany lamps I have which need to be turned on in order to appreciate their beauty.
Top shelf! When buying bulbs the top 2 are standard size and the middle lamp is 1 chandelier bulb. I don't usually write reviews but this one is worth it. A..... Mazing!!!! Happy purchase😍
Perfect and gorgeous! We ordered two different lamps. They are heavy and solid so tipping will never be an issue. If I had to pick a favorite, it would probably be this one but I love them both. Prompt delivery was a plus!!
Just love this lamp. Have received many compliments. Once the light burned out in the base, we didn't bother to replace as we actually like it better not illuminated. Ability to turn on one or two lights is nice so level of light is flexible depending on your needs.
This lamp is beautiful. It is high quality and so much less expensive than others I looked at in lighting stores. It is a beautiful addition to my living room. I would recommend purchasing this lamp, you will love it.
beautiful detail especially when lit, I would refer this product to anyone
You will not be disappointed in this lamp. It is stunning!!!
Gorgeous ,Gorgeous ,Gorgeous !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heavy well made lamp with brilliant colors.
This lamp is beautiful...the colors are vivid and glow when the lamp is lit the packing was secure, delivery fast, and easy to assemble. Bravo!.....
Prompt delievery even better product!!
