Busse Library provides this website as a resource for students and faculty researching literature's major authors. Based upon the book, The Literary 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Novelists, Playwrights, and Poets of All Time by Daniel S. Burt (New York: Facts on File, 2001), the project offers full listings by ranking and through a name index.
Specialized pages offer women writers, American authors, United Kingdom authors, and world authors grouped by continent. Developed solely for this website, additional project resources include significant authors in children's literature and a compilation of other "top 100" literature projects.
Each author's entry includes online biographical research and landmarks, scholarly resources, major works online, and Busse Library offerings for the novelist, dramatist, or poet.
This project, and its inspiration, develop from a tradition to select the world's most important authors who made a lasting contribution to literature and to compile a selection of history's most significant published texts in fiction and nonfiction.

Canon EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM Review
Latest Camera Reviews
Sharpness at 24mm
The sharpness tests for this review were carried out using a real-world subject rather than a test chart. The Canon EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM lens was attached to a Canon 6D body, which in turn was mounted on a sturdy tripod. Self-timer mode was activated. Slight tonal changes are due to slight changes in natural light during the session.
The full frame at 24mm
Center and edge sharpness are both excellent wide open at f/4 and nothing short of outstanding between f/5.6 and f/8. At f/11 and f/16 sharpness across the frame is beginning to drop-off due to diffraction, but is still commendably high. F/22 is best avoided.

1958-1959 Topps Bobby Hull GAI NM 7
Starting Bid - $500.00, Sold For - $2,320.00
Graded NM 7 by GAI. Exceptionally crisp high-grade rookie card of Bobby Hull, arguably the greatest hockey player ever. The 1958-1959 Topps hockey issue in general is very condition-sensitive, but the Bobby Hull rookie card is especially difficult to find in high grade as it was assigned the final card number (#66) of the set. The offered example is perfectly centered with four sharp corners (just a hint of wear in upper right), bright colors, and a flawless image. Reserve $500. Estimate $1,000/$1,500. SOLD FOR $2,320.00

JEFFERSON COUNTY, Alabama - A man was arrested by Texas police officers last month for his alleged involvement in illegal investment activities, authorities announced today.
Chinagozi Nwankwo, 33, whose last known residence was in Spring, Texas, was arrested March 1 by Ferris, Texas, police on outstanding warrants from Jefferson County.
Jefferson County District Attorney Brandon Falls and Alabama Securities Commission Director Joseph Borg today announced the arrest in a joint news release.
Nwankwo waived extradition - meaning he agreed to be sent back to Alabama to face the charges - and was taken to the Jefferson County jail on bonds totaling $120,000, according to the release.
According to the indictment, which was filed April 1, between Feb. 1, 2010, and March 31, 2010, Nwankwo was not a registered securities agent, but he offered to sell or sold a "note and/or investment contract."
After his attorney submitted a request to reduce bond, a judge set Nwankwo's bond at $20,000. He was released from jail on April 12, court records show.
According to court records, Nwankwo is represented by Edmond Earle. Attempts to reach Earle were unsuccessful.
In August 2012, a Jefferson County grand jury indicted Nwankwo on four counts: sale of unregistered securities, sale of securities by an unregistered agent and two counts of fraud in connection with the sale of securities.
The charges against him stem from an investigation conducted by the Alabama Securities Commission after an Alabama investor and a Nevada investor filed complaints.
The commission received assistance in the investigation and Nwankwo's apprehension from the Ferris (Texas) Police Department; the Ellis County (Texas) Sheriff's Department; the U.S. Marshals Service Fugitive Task Force; and the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, Borg said.

Midsomer Murders: Tainted Fruit, Part 1
Thursday, May 9 at 9:00 p.m.
Melissa Townsend (Lucy Punch) is young, rich, attractive and has a superior attitude that is most off-putting.
She is generally disliked by almost everyone in the village and DCI Tom Barnaby (John Nettles) is called when she starts to receive threatening letters. Soon after a break in at the local vets, Melissa is found dead, having been injected with a deadly substance.

Jason Taylor said he's surprised that the Steelers' reputation hasn't changed much since he was born in Pittsburgh 36 years ago.
"It's amazing how over the decades their philosophy and mantra as a team hasn't changed," Taylor said. "They just kind of plug in players in and out. Growing up there, we always prided it as being a tough place to come and play, now as a player you understand it's a difficult place to play."
When explaining the difficult, he talked about Ben Roethlisberger's ability to extend plays, and how difficult he is to bring down. How fast Mike Wallace was and the matchup problems he could cause.
He knows from experience they're going to try and win the game between the tackles, which can make the job all that more difficult.
But one of the worst things about playing Pittsburgh, he said, was the conditions at Heinz Field.
"Looking at the last home game on tape, it's looked a lot better than it has in years past," Taylor said. "I've been there before when it was torrential downpours. You'd punt the ball and it was sticking in the dirt like you hit it with a sand wedge. I've been through some tough conditions in Pittsburgh, so if they could re-sod the field and get those high school teams off of it, we'll be alright."
This will be Taylor's fourth-ever game against the Steelers. In the previous three, he's had four total sacks.

The splits on Dustin Keller continue to tell the story of a player hidden inside the Jets offense. It's now been nine games without a touchdown and five games without more than 50 yards receiving.
Keller, though, would not place the blame on offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer, who's come under fire of late during the Jets recent skid.
"No, I would never ever in any way try to tell (Schottenheimer) how to do his job," Keller said. " He's been doing it for such a long time because he's been doing a good job at it. Just, like I said, you have to keep a positive attitude and always be ready for the ball to come your way. When it finally does and you're not ready, people will be like 'what happened there?'"
He insisted that defenses aren't playing him any differently -- he's getting jammed right off the line just like any other Sunday. Though, he can't pinpoint why the production has slipped so significantly.
Just that it doesn't have anything to do with Schottenheimer.
"I don't buy too much into that. Every single play that's called, it's designed -- there's an outlet somewhere to be anything. So, as long as we're executing I think anything can work," Keller said. "We'll see, we'll see how it goes. Right now offensively we've been in a slump so we've got to do something to spark us, get us going in the right direction and if that means the ball coming to me...than I'm all for it."

Wayne Hunter said Sunday will be his first opportunity to start at tackle in his eight-year NFL career.
"I'm just happy it's finally come, it's been a long time," Hunter said. "I've had a few starts at tight end but nothing like this."
Hunter, who will be filling in for the injured Damien Woody, will be the first backup Jet offensive linemen in roughly three years to start a game. Woody received surgery on his right knee on Wednesday, which went well.
Hunter has been the Jets primary "jumbo" tight end, lining up as an eligible receiver that serves mostly as an extra blocker. He said it kept him into games and mentally focused while he waited for an opportunity to crack into the starting lineup.
He's filled in for Woody on several occasions this year, most notably against Houston and last week against Miami.
During that time, he was responsible for shutting down Mario Williams, and Cameron Wake, the league's sack leader.
And Sunday, Jets offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer said he'll be lined up against LaMarr Woodley (8 1/2 sacks, 31 solo tackles, three forced fumbles) for a majority of the snaps.
Hunter said playing well on the offensive line is dependent on rhythm, something he hasn't been able to develop over a few sporadic snaps against the league's premiere talent.
"It hasn't been easy," Hunter said. "But, I don't know, the cliche, if you want to be the best you have to go against the best. It was hard, I gave up a couple sacks...there's no excuses, I have to give Mark as much time as he needs."

A special brew from Samuel Adams to celebrate American Independence Day on 4th July.
Brewed at Shepherd Neame's Faversham brewery from a recipe devised in conjunction with the Boston Beer Company, it uses equal measures of US and UK hops.
The result is a summer pale ale with a delightful blend of grapefruit notes from the US Cascade hops and grassy earthiness from the Kent hops.

Among the hundreds of slabs of granite at his company, Joe Livorno of J.P. Stone Granite and Marble, 50 West Lincoln Ave. in South Williamsport, said educating the customer is first priority.
J.P. Stone Granite and Marble specializes in customizing slabs of granite and marble to fit the desired design for customers' homes, using a blend of computer technology and machinery to chisel out countertop features.
Each stone carries unique qualities, that, depending on the customers' desired vision, can bring out beauty, value and durability to a room, according to Livorno.
Article Photos
GREG HAYES/Sun-Gazette
Slabs of stone, as pictured above in J.P. Stone Granite and Marble's slab yard, are brought in from all over the world, such as Italy, Africa and Brazil.
According to the company's Web site: "Granite is an igneous rock ... that at one time ... was melted like volcanic lava. Unlike lava, this melted rock never reached the surface. It remained trapped inside the earth, where it slowly cooled and crystallized. This resulted in a uniform, speckled and sometimes veined stone ranging in color from black and gray tones to pink, brown, reds, greens and whites."
Its Web site also depicts marble as something that "was once limestone, but over time, the combination of intense heat and pressure caused the limestone to re-crystallize. Foreign substances often entered the stone during this process, creating an infinite variety of colors, textures, and veining. Marble is a lot like people; no two are exactly alike."
Slabs of the stones are brought in from all over the world to the South Williamsport company, such as Italy, Africa and Brazil, Livorno said.
All the slabs are exhibited in its stone and slab yard 24 hours a day for customer perusal, Livorno said, which helps decrease the pressure of buying for customers.
Instead of making selling pitches, Livorno said he thinks it's important to educate the customer on what they're seeing and help them understand the product, which adds comfort to the customer-company relationship in a person's decision.
Livorno has familial history in the trade, as his family has owned a similar company in Philadelphia for the past 70 years, he said.
As a kid, Livorno said "he just got into it (the trade)" and was something that he just kept up with.
From that, Livorno said he credits the confidence in "knowing what we talk about" and in what they have for the success of his company, which opened about nine years ago.
"All of our information is based off the Marble Institute of America," Livorno said. "Customers hear different things from other people, but after leaving (here), they feel they have a better idea."
Livorno helps exploit the myths of granite countertops by demonstrating its resistance to scratching and burning, which is a major concern among many customers along with costs, he said.
Granite countertops are one of his biggest sellers, he said, and has been a growing trend over the years.
"Even with the so-called recession, it's been a good year," Livorno added.
Livorno also said it's a roller-coaster ride with business over the year, having busy times and slow times, but lately, he's been having a steady stream of work coming in.

Ye Old Criticism of Jazz
ENCYCLOPEDIA. Philosophy. Surrealism is based on the belief in the superior reality of certain forms of previously neglected associations, in the omnipotence of dream, in the disinterested play of thought. It tends to ruin once and for all other psychic mechanisms and to substitute itself for them in solving all the principal problems of life.
André Breton (1924, The Surrealist Manifesto)
Recently, when asked about Freud, European modernism and early American jazz music, my friend the jazz historian wrote me in a casual email that:
"My first book [(circa the '80s)] The Imperfect Art, deals with the relationship of jazz to concepts of modernism. But, at a minimum, you should check out the chapter 'Jazz and the Primitivist Myth' (also published in the Musical Quarterly). This chapter shows how the same European art critics who praised jazz were also interested in the influence of African art on modernism. Some of the connections here are little known and surprising."
I figured he was referring to the African mask trope in Parisian art during the turn of the 19th century ahead. (i.e. Picasso's "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon.") Aesthetes and historiographers have frequently made this observation. The African mask itself was in vogue during these years in that city. But what is African is not necessarily jazz.
My opinion was this: Not enough has been said about the origins of jazz music. Not as they pertain to the call-and-response of "sorrow songs" or "blue note" variations on the pentatonic scales. Nor, for that matter the numerous variations on a swing rhythm or ways to make that rhythm swing.
What I plan to explore in this essay is not the molding of gospel in prohibition era nightclubs and the African reception of Appalacian freedom; but: To what shelves of the library might the study of jazz improvisation (that is post-Baroque musical improvisation, that fits naturally with the above listed characteristics of jazz music) bring us? What happens when we look beyond the cultural implications of the African American tragedy and World War I? What about the psychological and aesthetic innovations of European modernism?
Jazz music of course became especially popular in the years directly following the First World War. But while the Fletcher Henderson Orchestra was in vogue in New York City, launching the careers of Louis Armstrong and Coleman Hawkins, playing those strange sounds; and while Duke Ellington and Cootie Williams were painting that town blue, what was happening in Europe, namely in the world of poetry and art, was directly influential on the development of the jazz aesthetic.
It is not just a coincidence that Peggy Guggenheim absolutely adored jazz musicians, patronized them even. This artistic epoch: the heyday of jazz in America (right before the "jazz age") and Surrealism in Europe, are both based on and affected by the study of the subconscious by Dr. Sigmund Freud.
The jazz age was about the unleashing of sexuality and this could be witnessed in the dancing, music, the sculpture, the cinema and the paintingso, how pleasantly appropriate is it that we list Freud, the first Western clinical physician of sex, as a propeller of the jazz movement.
But the Freud/jazz connection goes way beyond sexuality.
Guillaume Apollinaire was a French writer and he coined the artistic term, "Surrealism," which is based on dreams and the subconscious. André Breton was another French writer who expounded on Apollinaire's ideas in his famous 1924 essay, "The Surrealist Manifesto." Breton writes, eventually crediting Dr. Freud:
"Under the pretense of civilization and progress, we have managed to banish from the mind everything that may rightly or wrongly be termed superstition, or fancy; forbidden is any kind of search for truth which is not in conformance with accepted practices."
This undoubtedly applies to sexual behavior, dancing and Abstract Expressionism in visual art, but may be dually applied to jazz improvisation.
(In 1973, Don Cherry enacted an Andre Breton poem, aurally, on trumpet in various locations in Paris.)
"It was, apparently, by pure chance that a part of our mental world which we pretended not to be concerned with any longerand, in my opinion by far the most important parthas been brought back to light. For this we must give thanks to the discoveries of Sigmund Freud..."

MARTINSBURG - For 100 minutes, Hedgesville and Martinsburg couldn't break the deadlock in the Class AAA, Region II, Section 1 semifinal game Thursday.
Both teams looked for the advantage early as the match went to a shootout.
Hedgesville went ahead when goalkeeper Noah Nucilli stopped Tristen Reid's shot and Sebeey Chi scored right after. The Eagles never lost the lead, beating the Bulldogs 5-4 in the tiebreaker.

Hedgesville's Edward Michon (4) beats Martinsburg keeper Jason Hill on a penalty shot to the near corner in the Sectional playoffs Thursday evening in Martinsburg. Hedgesville won in penalty shots 5-4. See more photos on CU.
"Before we went out there for penalty kicks, my coaches told me to believe in myself and the team," Nucilli said. "I was also told to pick a spot and dive there. I dove to the right and got my hands on it."
"It has been like this for the last three years," Bulldogs coach Curt Czarnecki said.
"We expect a tight game because it is the rivalry, but you tip your cap off to Noah. He stepped up and stopped our first PK (penalty kick), and sometimes that's all it takes."
During regulation and in the extra time, neither side backed down defensively, as both offenses kept firing shot after shot at the opposing keepers.
Martinsburg outshot Hedgesville 29-13, including a 17-9 advantage on shots on target, in regulation. With those shots, the Eagles had to escape multiple close calls in the first 80 minutes.
In the first half, Reid fired a shot that Nucilli got his hands on but slipped out. Nucilli recovered quickly enough before the entire ball crossed the goal line to keep the match scoreless.
Those close calls intensified in the second half as the Bulldogs continued to remain aggressive in the attack.
In the 62nd minute, Reid took a through ball over the top from Erik Ochoa and lined a rolling shot toward the net. Just as the ball was rolling toward the line, Curtis Dorsey chased the ball down, sliding to stop the ball just before it crossed.
"Our coaches have done a great job with us in practice, reenacting every situation," Dorsey said. "That situation of having a ball get past us over the top and chasing it down in case the keeper wasn't there was all we worked on in practice yesterday."
Following the Nucilli save on Reid's shot, he was unsuccessful in saving shots from Touissant Boulaz, James Myers, Erik Ochoa and Jeremy Smith, but his strikers were able to back him up.
Chi, Jesus Garcia, Luis Reyes-Martinez, Deon Taylor and Teddy Michon all scored in the shootout to give Hedgesville the victory in a game Eagles, which coach Wes Cole called "the best he had ever seen".
"In this section, when any team steps onto the field, it comes down to who wants it," Cole said. "That is what results in great games."
The Eagles advance to their third straight sectional final with the victory and travels to Jefferson Saturday to their second consecutive sectional title.

Europeans and America have very different ideas about who should be making their national foods.
An American who dared to open, say, a creperie in France might well get laughed out of the country. Crepes, after all, are an iconic French dish that foreigners, by definition, are genetically and culturally unable to do as well as natives.
But if a Frenchwoman comes here and opens a hot dog shop, we don't tilt our noses and tell her to leave the wieners to us.
Instead, we say, "Show us what you got."
Lilliane Coscas has been showing us what she's got since early this year at her tidy little shop in the Scottsdale Promenade. And she's putting on an appealing show.
Coscas, it should be pointed out, is no Lilliane-come-lately to the Valley food scene. She and husband, Guy, were among the principals behind two 1980s foodie destinations, the French Corner and Euro Market.
In 1989, Guy helped put Phoenix on the national restaurant map when he partnered with Christopher Gross at the original Christopher's. The couple became American citizens in 1994.
Madame Coscas made two wise decisions when she launched the Hot Dog Stop. First, she chose the right supplier: For both the all-beef regular frank and all-beef Polish sausage, she uses Sabrett, a company that has been providing hot dogs to most of New York City's street vendors since the Dutch bought Manhattan.
Second, instead of relying on mushy supermarket buns, she decided to bake them herself, fresh every morning, using a brioche-type dough. Lightly toasted, they're sturdy enough to stand up to the hot dogs and a heap of toppings and condiments.
Now, when it comes to hot dogs, everybody's an expert, so there's no sense arguing over issues of authenticity, or which city's or region's hot dogs are superior. Let's focus instead on what's really important: taste.
On that score, these dogs are a success. Most folks will probably gravitate to the specialty dogs ($4.95), grilled Polish sausages that are a bit crunchy outside and juicy inside.
On the whole, I preferred less-fussy models, like the Chicago, topped with onions and peppers, diced tomato, sweet relish and mustard. The Philly, with grilled onions and peppers, and the New Yorker, with mustard, sauerkraut and onion, also made very favorable impressions.
But I'm sure someone could make an argument for the bacon-wrapped Kansas City dog, with barbecue sauce and nacho cheese, or the Reuben, draped with an unholy combination of pastrami, nacho cheese, sauerkraut and mustard. The Phoenix, meanwhile, is Coscas's take on the traditional Sonoran hot dog: bacon-wrapped, with grilled onions, peppers, tomatoes, jalapeño sauce, mustard, mayo and ketchup. To me, the sausage kind of gets lost in the mix, but reasonable minds can differ.
Truth be told, the hot dog I'd come back for is not a specialty dog, but the most basic model: the steamed (not grilled) Sabrett hot dog ($2.95), topped with a side of sauerkraut (85 cents). Why? Because it tastes like my streets-of-New York youth. After I finished this hot dog, I had an irresistible impulse to ditch piano lessons and play stickball.
For do-it-yourselfers, there's a condiment section with relish, tomatoes, onions, sliced jalapeños, chile sauce, lettuce and pickles, as well as barbecue sauce, ketchup and three kinds of mustard.
All hot dogs come with surprisingly good coleslaw, but some of the a la carte sides are worth the supplement. The crispy yam fries ($2.25) are especially good. Among the other spuds, the thick-cut wedges called country fries ($1.95) are preferable to the undistinguished regular fries ($1.50). Standard-issue onion rings ($2), hot and crunchy right out of the fryer, are OK, but the mild chili ($1) needs a jump-start.
One jarring note: the background music. On both my visits, it seemed to be some sort of awful Euro beat that's as out of place here as Bach's Goldberg Variations. Along with deli mustard and sauerkraut, hot dogs just go better with good ol' American rock and roll.

Response and Recovery after the Joplin Tornado: Lessons Applied and Lessons Learned

University of Oklahoma
May 6, 2013
An EF-5 Tornado struck Joplin, MO on May 22, 2011, leaving a twenty mile long path of destruction in its wake. An estimated 7,500 homes and over 500 businesses were damaged or destroyed, with damage estimated at up to $3 billion. Joplin has seen a rapid recovery despite the extensive damage. The Joplin tornado provides a valuable opportunity to determine if findings from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina apply to other major natural disasters. This study uses interviews with various government officials, church leaders, charities, business owners, and homeowners, as well as conventional data, to examine the response and recovery efforts in Joplin. We argue that Joplin's rapid recovery is a result of Federal, state and local officials letting the voluntary sector, including businesses, national charities, churches, and local community groups, lead the response and recovery.

England end on a high
Follow England's one-day fortunes in India via our match-by-match page - all the reports, reaction, video highlights and live photos
A much-improved England brought the curtain down on their chastening tour of India with victory in the Twenty20 international in Kolkata.
Beaten 5-0 in the one-day series, this match represented England's last chance to open their account on this trip - and salvage some of the pride lost over the last two weeks.
They responded with an incisive bowling display, spearheaded by the ever-impressive Steven Finn, that limited India to 120 for nine, before Kevin Pietersen defied a broken thumb to plunder 53 off 39 balls.
A six-wicket triumph every bit as comprehensive as it was belated was wrapped up with eight deliveries to spare. It ensures England not only remain number one in the ICC rankings but that they will at least fly home with some positive memories from what has been a largely disappointing tour.
They deserve great credit for the manner in which they performed here, on an Eden Gardens surface seemingly perfectly suited to their hosts.
It was so slow, and offered such extravagant turn, that India's seamers bowled just three overs between them, and allowed slow left-armer Ravindra Jadeja to take 1-9 from four overs.
Finn's haul of 3-22 was, therefore, all the more impressive, while Tim Bresnan was nigh on immaculate in returning figures of 2-19. A double wicket maiden - so rare in this form of the game - enabled Ravi Bopara to take 2-16.
Bopara also scored the winning run, Pietersen having been denied the honour by a dubious lbw decision as he attempted a second switch-hit for six.
Pietersen's assault - and a third-wicket stand of 60 in fewer than eight overs with Samit Patel - eased any of the nerves that may have been evident in the England dressing room, particularly in the wake of their precipitous collapse on the same pitch in the final one-day international on Tuesday.
Yet the foundations for England's success were unquestionably laid with the ball, to such an extent that no-one bettered Suresh Raina's 39 in a faltering India innings.
If England's spirits needed lifting after their one-day travails, a wicket in each of the first two overs - after they lost the toss - represented the ideal tonic.
Both owed much to wonderful diving catches from Craig Kieswetter, who leapt high to his right to collect Ajinkya Rahane's edged drive off Finn before using both hands to account for Robin Uthappa as he fenced at Bresnan.
Alex Hales maintained the theme of excellence in the field when, running round from deep midwicket, he held a steepling chance offered by Virat Kohli off Bresnan.
Raina's response to a scorecard that read 26 for three was typically emphatic, following up a glorious straight six at Finn's expense by sweeping Graeme Swann into the stands during an over that cost 16.
However, the restorative effects of a fourth-wicket stand of 40 were lessened by a middle-order slide that saw three wickets tumble in nine balls for the addition of eight runs.
Manoj Tiwary was bowled by Patel as he essayed a sweep on one knee, before Raina cut a long hop to backward point and Jadeja played on via an open face, off successive Finn deliveries.
Cue Bopara's intervention. He followed up two slower balls to Yusuf Pathan with a quicker one that ripped out off stump, and found appreciable reverse swing to beat Praveen Kumar's drive and cap a double wicket maiden.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni's 21, best described as scratchy and brought to an end when he chased an impossible single off the last ball of the innings, at least carried India to respectability.
England overcame the early loss of Kieswetter, who charged at Jadeja and skied to mid-off, and Hales, well held low down by Rahane at deep midwicket off Yusuf, thanks largely to Pietersen.
Dropped on one by a backpedalling Raina at square-leg, he deposited Yusuf into what became the midwicket stand as he unfurled the switch-hit, a shot complemented by a clutch of mighty sweeps and a deft scoop over the wicketkeeper.
Patel played his part, most memorably when swatting a length ball from Vinay Kumar over long-on, until he top-edged a sweep at Kohli to depart for 21.
Pietersen fell to Raina in the next over despite the ball pitching outside leg stump. That his obvious displeasure at the decision soon turned to amusement told you that England's victory was all but assured.

Canon EF 24mm f/2.8 IS USM Review
Latest Camera Reviews
Panasonic Lumix DMC-G80 Review
Your Comments
8 Comments | Newest Oldest First | Post a Comment
A Nice lens..but so was the older design at half the price….the new lens is a complete rip off if ask me.
Lens is great in this.. Best price to buy..
Too expensive for the image quality and plastic build quality. Its not worth that much just because it's a prime. If you're using a crop sensor body The Canon EFS 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 USM is much more useful with its utra wide to medium wide zoom range, and has an image quality which is far better than it's non-L status would suggest.
$807,00 very expensive. I see nothing special about this lens that justifies this price!
The IS is useful for people who like to make films with there camera. The first lenses together with the 28mm IS where you pay extra (not a little but very much more) for making films as a photographer who never makes a film. I do not like that development. A 24 mm does not need IS for taking pictures.
I've been testing both the new 24 and the 28 mm IS lenses for about a week and I did shoot about 500 images with them. The result of my test was that it simply doesn't worth it's price. Only between 2.8 and 4 looks sharper than the 16-35 L, but the IS is a complete rip off on this lens, only at every 3 shoots made some differences comparing the images I took turning it off. So, what's the point? It is too risky to use it. But actually with the new peripheral illumination firmware activated in the 5D MIII the corner shade is very well controlled with the lens. However, I just want to remind you, that the lens doesn't come with the hood. To fit in a nutshell, I was craving for this lens for a long time, I saved the money to buy it, but after all these testing I made it clear that I WON'T BUY IT! Sorry Canon!
Actually , we would love to get comparision between prime lens & zoom lens. supose prime lens is 24mm f2.8, compare it with 24mm of 24-70,15-85,17-40. This gives buyer, better understanding in selecting prime or zoom. Zoom has certain plus points but quality also plays a important role. Also mentioning quality in percentage will be better.
> We'd found the previous members, the Canon 24mm f/2.8 IS and Canon 28mm f/2.8 IS good lenses at premium prices.
The latest Canon rebates (Mar, 2013) take a nice bite out of the MSRP.
The premium price that Canon is charging for their new lenses does trouble me, but ...
My speculation is that a next-generation of Canon high-resoluiton DSLR sensors will finally out-resolve the older existing lenses. My understanding is that the Nikon D800 demands premium glass, or "why bother"?
My Canon 5dm2 is happy with Samyang primes and my 50mm f/1.8 "plastic fantastic", but a 5dm4 with 50mpx might not be.
Gosh, the 4 year old technology in the 7D scales up to mid-40's mpx. With 18nm nano-lithography feature lines, the electronics won't bog down completely while moving huge RAWS.
Almost seems like a good time to be a Canon stock-holder? They will be selling premium glass at premium prices to feed ultra-res cameras.
Or not?

Nope, don't know any but you can always try a good Civ2 scenario. ;)

You might want to check out Talonsoft's "The Operational Art of War (A Century of War)" if you can still find it. It's a great military simulation game chock full of many cool scenarios covering warfare in the 20th Century. There is one decent WW1 scenario included in the game and an editor that will allow you to make your own WW1 scenarios.
It's a shame that there isn't many strategy games out there covering WW1. WW2 is my passion but if someone did a decent WW1 game I'd definately play!!!
Mar 15, 2002, 05:30 PM
I'd like a stragety type WW1 game. like a civ scenario. but I dont like Civ scenarios much to tell the truth. something where I can command the entire nation. I'll check that game out... I mistley rely on abandonware.

Look, I'm a fanatic of 1860-1914 military history, particularly at the operational (e.g. corps) level, and civ3 could easily be adapted for this purpose. So while I am a lousy fool when it comes to mods and anything technical, I count among my little library treasures an accurate 1916 atlas of the major frontline areas of Europe which includes all the roads, fortresses, etc.. So I would be happy to help build a map for a scenario, and contribute some ideas, but I would definitely need a few collaborators to pull it off...
Mar 16, 2002, 12:04 PM
I too am fascinated by that time period, if only there was a game that simulated it with no dice luck and simultaneous moves... oh yea! - Diplomacy! ;)
Seriously, I would offer my help in any collaborative efort to produce a fun playable and interesting Great War boardgame. (something in an 'axis & allies' sort of way, but allowing the alliances to be freely fomed among Great Powers rather than strictly following historical form). There could even be an 'advanced' game (scenario) which takes place not in 1914 but at the end of the Franco-Prussian War...

Mar 16, 2002, 12:20 PM
Well, okay, Magnus (hey, how's it going, btw?), maybe a 1870-1920 scenario called "Bismark's World" is in order. But why a boardgame? I dunno, I just thought civ wouldn't be a bad platform, under the circumstances, given all of the features: factories, rail and roads, espionage, culture and nationalism (could be real fun for an Austrian player trying to stop all the flips!)

That's my scenario: And it runs from 1870 to 2020...
If you want it, I can get it to you... But I caution you, it is a MGE scenario...
Not from that "other" civ....
Mar 17, 2002, 07:43 PM
back in weimar's days I tried to make a scenario that started in 1875 and went to 1933 {or was it 35?} and the final thing you built was the weimar republic which was the statue of liberty!
please dont make this scenario without me!
I'm excellent at:
making maps
and thier economies
but I cant do:
military units
how about we all come togethor and make this scenario?
firstname.lastname@example.com if you are interested
I want a game that is only in europe, and in civ, one thats GEOGRAPHICALLY CORRECT!!! UUURRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!! :aargh3: :mad: :aargh3: :mad: :aargh3: :mad: :aargh3:
look at this map of europe
its squished!!!
now look at this one...
its se;)y
I do belive I lost the scenario when my comp broke. but I can start over from what I remember?
c'mon! it'll be fun!

As FFox knows, I am lusting after a spot , and as my shiny new computer comes online, I might be knocking at his door to play. But, still, I am equally interested in building a new European 1870 scenario. I don't doubt that FFox's scenario does a good job within the confines of ToT, and it has the huge advantage of being MP, but frankly, Civ3 treats the industrial age with a certain sophistication that really should be used someday soon.
- Railroads - not using friendly roads or railroads will make any German invasion of France a'la Schlieffen MUCH more interesting.
- Culture - could be an interesting tool in the Balkans, Alsace-Lorraine, Ireland and the Ottoman Empire, if the game is designed properly.
- The inclusion of a rifleman unit allows for easy distinctions between, say the BEF and its counterparts in 1914, or between German reserve and line infantry units, without the need to adapt accordingly
- Blockades now serve a purpose
- The luxuries system will now properly replicates the impact of a declaration of war in the 1914 European system - e.g. economic disruption from loss of existing trades and luxuries.
- If the game starts after France is defeated in 1871, then it can be locked into a reparations agereement , accurately giving the Germans an incentive to stay quiet for awhile and giving France a hell of a challenge to deal with.
- lousy zone of control rules force you to spread your forces over a wide front on the defensive
So, let's all ponder some ideas and come back to this thread in a week or so with a big honkin' list.
PS anyone out there read "The Great War of 189-?"
Great book. There is a copy in the UVic library on the third floor...
Mar 19, 2002, 10:19 AM
I plan to make a scenario. I will start it tomarrow. e-mail me if you are interested.
it starts in the fall of 1873. just after the germans withdraw thier economic controal over northern france after the Franco-Prussian war.
Each nation starts out with a military, and an economey. the point, is to grow your economey as much as you can before the end of the scenario. the one with the largest economey at the end, wins.
playing nations like France, Britain, or Germany its easy. while playing nations like Austria or Italy, its hard.
playing Russia will be almost impossible
and playing the Ottoman Empire is only for those who want to loose :)
the scenario ends sometime in the 1930's depending on how many turns total is in it at the end.
if anyone wants to help with the units, you get half the credit... though I've had an offer...
Mar 19, 2002, 10:23 AM
I dident think there was a civ 3 editor... if so I'm changing my scenario over to Civ III
I've had this idea since the weimar days, so dont say I'm trying to steal it. I belive there are posts of it from back then. perhaps I'll bump one in the scenario creation thread.
anyways, would you like to merge these 2 ideas? with more naitons avilable then just 7, I can make many more scenarios, incluidng many from between 1400-1900 that have hit me over the years...
IF there is a civ III editor that is.
Mar 20, 2002, 01:00 AM
No Civ3 editor that will allow you to make a scenario.

|Ira Steven Behr
Pictured at San Diego Comicon 2011
|October 23, 1953
New York City, New York
|Television producer and screenwriter
|Known for
|Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Ira Steven Behr (born October 23, 1953, in New York City, New York) is an American television producer and screenwriter, most known for his work on Star Trek, especially Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, on which he served as showrunner and executive producer. He was the executive producer and showrunner on Crash and executive producer on Syfy's Alphas. Behr is currently a writer and co-executive producer on Outlander.
Early career[edit]
Born to a Jewish family,[1] Behr studied at Lehman College in New York City. After graduating, Behr moved to Los Angeles to pursue a screenwriting career. Behr's first writing job was on the dramatic series Bret Maverick. Behr continued to work on television dramas, throughout the 1980s, among them:
- Jessica Novak (1981, story editor)
- Fame (1982, writer and producer)
- Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1982, writer)
- Bring 'Em Back Alive (1982, writer)
- Once a Hero (1987, writer and producer)
- The Bronx Zoo (1987, writer)
Star Trek[edit]
After several years writing and producing television, and while still a staff writer at Beyond Reality, Behr was hired as a producer during Star Trek: The Next Generation's third season.
Behr left The Next Generation after a year; but two years later, he rejoined Star Trek as a supervising producer on the new series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. At the start of the second season, Behr was promoted to co-executive producer. The following year, co-creator Michael Piller left to produce the next Star Trek series, Star Trek: Voyager and Behr replaced him as showrunner and executive producer. As showrunner, Behr reported to head executive producer and franchise chief Rick Berman.
Behr went on to write a total of 53 episodes of Deep Space Nine, more than any other writer.
As executive producer, Behr was largely responsible for the story arc of the show, from Bajoran politics to the Dominion War. This prolonged and complex story was a departure from the traditional Star Trek episodic format, and the war narrative was a break from the typically hopeful Star Trek vision of the future.
Behr personally wrote or co-wrote some of the most important episodes in the Dominion arc, including "The Jem'Hadar", "The Search", "The Way of the Warrior", "Broken Link", "Apocalypse Rising", "In Purgatory's Shadow", "By Inferno's Light", "Call to Arms", "Sacrifice of Angels", "Tears of the Prophets" and the final episode, "What You Leave Behind".
Behr also had a significant role in the development of the Ferengi alien race during his work on Deep Space Nine. Although the Ferengi were first introduced in the first season of The Next Generation as a potential major antagonist, they proved unsuccessful, and in subsequent seasons became an occasional source of comic relief. But it was not until Deep Space Nine, which included a Ferengi character in its regular cast, that the Ferengi were truly explored in any depth. Behr was involved with most of the early Ferengi-related episodes, and introduced the concept of the Ferengi Rules of Acquisition and wrote most of the rules which appeared on the show. These rules were later published as The Ferengi Rules of Acquisition, by Quark as told to Ira Steven Behr (ISBN 0-671-52936-6). Along with fellow Deep Space Nine producer Robert Hewitt Wolfe, Behr also co-wrote Legends of the Ferengi, a collection of short stories involving the Rules of Acquisition.
Post-Star Trek period[edit]
Behr left Star Trek following the completion of Deep Space Nine's seven season run in 1999, and has since worked on several television shows, including:
- Dark Angel (2000, consulting producer)
- Bob Patterson (2001, writer and executive producer)
- The Twilight Zone (2002, writer and executive producer)
- The 4400 (2004–2007, writer and executive producer)
- Dr. Vegas (2004, writer and consulting producer)
- Alphas (2011, writer and executive producer)
- Outlander (2014–, writer and co-executive producer)
Crash: Season 2[edit]
In February 2009, Behr was named head writer for the Starz TV series Crash (based on the Paul Haggis film) as it heads into Season 2, which aired in the fall of 2009.[2] Lead actor Dennis Hopper died in May 2010 and the series did not continue.
In late December 2010, Behr was appointed head writer, show runner, and executive producer for Syfy Channel's Alphas for which a pilot, written by Zak Penn and Michael Karnow and directed by Jack Bender (The Sopranos, Lost), had been produced. The program's lead actor is David Strathairn of Good Night, and Good Luck fame. Behr oversaw the remaining 10 episodes of the 11 episode first season order.[3]

This was used as a backdrop for photos at a high school Hawaiian themed dinner. The quality was good, the paper didn't tear at all and it was great to have such a good quantity on the role.
Service and delivery comments:
Delivered on time and was packaged well.
Best Uses
I used this as a 65th anniversary luau to use behind the food servers. I wish it had been taller. It does look good under the straw. It was difficult to hang because we used so many kinds of tape to get it to stick to the metal screen or the wall covered in stucco. We only used 1/3 of the roll--it is heavy to unroll while trying to hang, so you need several people to help.
Best Uses
I will use this as a cruise ship door decoration background. Due to it being wrinkled I had to buy extra decorations to cover the wrinkle down the center. Other then that I love the design and quality of the product.

I am a teacher and used this paper on my bulletin board for end of the school year fun. The roll has plenty paper for using later. I may just use it as a theme in my classroom next year!

A new report says that charter schools in Chicago fail to provide special education students compared to public schools. As noted in other stories, this is by design. There are plenty of other stories about how charter schools fail to serve children with disabilities.
. . . The overall percentage of students with disabilities in charter elementary schools is 25 percent lower than in regular elementary schools.
Among the special needs students in charters, most have less severe disabilities: 72 percent are learning disabled, compared to about half in the district as a whole. Only 2 percent of special needs students in charter schools have more severe disabilities (as measured by the percentage of students requiring placement in separate classrooms for the majority of the school day), compared to more than 16 percent in traditional CPS schools.

What a lot of people don't understand, is during the 90's, times were pretty good in Detroit, and all the small shops that did work for the auto companies were the ones that were buying season tickets. With the success of The Wings, tickets became more of a valuable commodity, and people used tickets as gifts, to help schmooze buyers from the Big 3. Right around 2000, 2 things happened. The first, was the Big 3 telling their employees that they could no longer accept "gifts" from suppliers. (It still happened, and still does, just a lot fewer purchasers, and even more playing within their companies rules.) The second, and more important part, is in late 2000, the local economy was getting shaky, especially in the auto industry. Over the next 5-10 years, most of these small suppliers went out of business, or were purchased by larger companies, and they no longer had the need, or the funds, to continue purchasing tickets. (A quick drive up Groesbeck Hwy, will be a quick reminder of how many small businesses, disappeared.) During this time, The Wings remained competitive, and tickets were still in demand. Ticket brokers started snapping them up, several of them from out of town. The Red Wings organization was happy to be replacing their lost customers with new ones, and wasn't all that concerned about the addresses of the new owners. Plenty of locals still had extra money, and would pay for these "broker" tickets, to go see a game. When 2007 came around, even more jobs were gone, and discretionary spending for a hockey game was nonexistent for the average fan. This is around the time that the sellout streak ended. I'm pretty sure, that the 07-08 season, was the first in 15 years that wasn't all sellouts. The year we win The Cup, and we can't sellout the barn. Tough times indeed. Even more people gave up season tickets, and even more ticket brokers bought them up. Now, there are so many season ticket packages that are owned by brokers, that places like StubHub, and Ticketmaster, are full of seats that go unsold, especially during weekday games, and less desirable teams. The only times The Joe gets really full, is on weekends, for high demand teams, and for the playoffs. A quick look on StubHub, shows several tickets in the lower bowl available for Friday night against Carolina. Some people even wanting $1000 per ticket, but several priced around double face value. For Carolina. I'm sure that I'll once again have plenty of room to spread out, Friday, as the tickets, both in front of me, and next to me, are owned by the same broker from New Jersey, and I doubt that their secretaries will want to make the trip to Detroit, to see Carolina.

It doesn't seem possible to make a dairy-free ranch dressing. To me, it wouldn't be ranch.
Hi Im wondering i anyone has made ranch dressing using pork lard or some other more paleo recipes. I want to avoid all plant oils and so far have only found this recipe which uses heavy cream and and sour cream but still isn't what I want as I prefer dairy free.

I have made this one and its pretty good but its not as good as the ranch dressing I get when I eat out. I really don't follow this exactly. I use more sour cream than I do mayo. I haven't made this since following PB, but I grow all the herbs so I may just have to make it when I get the chance. If you make it, my advice is to go easy on the garlic and onion powders.

Just found this one, but I have never made it. It looks really good though so I am going to give it a try. With this it looks like you can cut down a bit on the dairy ingredients because of the avocato.
Edit: how bad is buttermilk for PB? It only has a tiny bit, but I wonder what could be used as a sub?
