Acoustic Impedance and Sound Absorption12(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1916094View Description Hide Description
Theoretical curves for acoustic impedancevs. frequency, obtained by solving the equation for wave motion within the material, are compared with recently measured values of the impedance of various sound absorbing materials. The satisfactory agreement in most cases measured indicates that that for homogeneous materials the effective values of flow resistance, porosity and material density are nearly constant over the frequency range 200 to 6000 c.p.s. This makes it possible to express the whole acoustic behavior of these materials by three constants. The behavior of two nonhomogeneous materials is also discussed. The relation between impedance and the various types of absorption coefficient is discussed, and specific formulas for the coefficients are given in terms of the acoustic impedance. It is indicated that in rectangular chambers, when the sound does not have a random diffusion throughout the room, the decay curve for pressure squared in db, vs. time in seconds, is a broken line, with the initial slope corresponding to a coefficient for normal incidence, and the final slope corresponding to a coefficient for grazing incidence. If enough scattering objects are inserted to make the diffusion of sound complete, so that no standing wave is all grazing or all normal to any surface, then the decay curve is a straight line with slope corresponding to the coefficient defined by Sabine. A formula relating this coefficient to the acoustic impedance is given. The Acoustical Materials Association values of absorption coefficient, used in practice, are compared with the curves of normal and Sabine coefficient, computed from the experimental curves for impedance. It is apparent that above 2000 c.p.s. the A.M.A. values equal the computed Sabine coefficients, indicating sufficient diffusion of sound in the reverberation chambers at these frequencies. Below 500 c.p.s. the A.M.A. values correspond more closely to the normal coefficient, indicating an insufficient diffusion of sound, and that the initial slope of a broken line decay curve is being measured. In these two ranges of frequency, therefore, one can compute the A.M.A. coefficients from the impedance. It is suggested that field coefficients for large auditoriums correspond to the computed Sabine coefficient for lower frequencies than do the A.M.A. coefficients. A simple formula is given for the broken line decay curve in a rectangular room with no diffusion, and is checked by experimental curves. A case of partial diffusion is discussed, where the decay curve is intermediate between the theoretical curves for complete and for no diffusion.

Transmission of Sound Through Parallel Conduits12(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1916096View Description Hide Description
This paper is a theoretical study of the passage of sound through a series of similar sections composed of two parallel conduits. The infinite structure and the finite structure with finite termination are examined. The filter is low‐pass and, by varying the cross sections and the lengths, practically as many or as few frequencies as desired, from 0 to 10,000 cycles, can be attenuated. The effect of cylindrical and conical finite terminations is calculated and plotted. The latter graphs indicate that by varying the length of the termination so that its anti‐resonance frequencies fall within attenuation bands, the transmission is very approximately that predicted from the infinite structure study.
The Absorption of Sound in Carbon Dioxide12(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1916097View Description Hide Description
The absorption was measured by a direct method over frequencies between 22 and 112 kc. A microphone responding to the sound pressure is moved away from a piston source located in a flat surface. The output of the microphone is amplified and recorded photographically. The resulting pressure‐distance curve yields the pressureattenuation coefficient. The measurements were made in carbon dioxide which was carefully dried by passing it through phosphorus pentoxide. The results of the measurements bear out the theoretical work of Bourgin. The lowest value obtained for the frequency at which the absorption per wave‐length μ is a maximum was 30 kc. In order to account for the maximal value of μ obtained experimentally, it is necessary to assume that both the symmetrical valence vibration and the deformation vibration are effective in producing the absorption, and in addition that the second harmonic of the deformation mode also participates in the absorptive process. Velocity measurements made with the same apparatus have shown a reasonable agreement between the dispersion and absorption in carbon dioxide.
The Absorption of Sound in Five Triatomic Gases12(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1916098View Description Hide Description
The sound absorption coefficients have been measured between 8 and 130 kilocycles for the five triatomic gases , COS, , and . The frequencies of maximal absorption for these molecules were found to be at 20, 153, 287, 379, and 1040 kc, respectively. It was found that for the linear molecules , COS, and a linear relationship exists between the maximal absorption coefficients and the frequencies at which these maxima occur. It was also found (1) that the lower the fundamental frequencies of vibration of the four linear molecules the higher are the acoustical frequencies of maximal absorption, i.e., the shorter are the lifetimes of the energy quanta; and (2) that the sonically activated fundamentals and harmonics of each of the above linear molecules commute and have the same lifetime, with the possible exception of . From the experimental data it was possible to calculate the reaction rates, probabilities of removal of vibrational quanta, the numbers of collisions necessary to remove the quanta of energy, and the numbers of quantum transitions per second. In addition to the above data, a technique is presented which enables one to find the frequencies of maximal absorption for gases when these frequencies occur in a range beyond the scope of the apparatus.
The Absorption of Sound in , COS, and in , Containing Added Impurities12(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1916099View Description Hide Description
We have investigated the absorptive characteristics of , COS, and as influenced by the addition of certain gases, such as , etc., acting as "catalysts." These catalysts shift the absorption bands to higher frequencies; the magnitudes of these shifts yield information respecting (1) the frequency at which each pure gas has its maximal absorption, and (2) the nature of the molecular collisions involved, and especially the effectiveness of these collisions in disturbing the vibrational states of the absorptive molecules. The results indicate that at atmospheric pressure and 23°C the absorption maxima for pure , COS, and are shifted in each case by amounts proportional to the concentration of the added catalyst. The addition of one percent of to shifts the absorption band for 2250 kc; similarly, one percent of shifts the band 2460 kc, the COS band 4200 kc, and the band 427 kc. One percent of the other impurities produced shifts which varied from 20 to 1830 kc. Transition probabilities for the above gases have been calculated. These probabilities are characteristic of the colliding pair of molecules.
Symmetrical Sand Figures on Circular Plates12(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1916100View Description Hide Description
It is shown that Kirchhoff's solution for a circular plate is a special case which gives circles and diameters only. If this solution is generalized, the very intricate figures actually found upon circular plates may be calculated mathematically. In particular, a few figures found by Chladni are computed from the new equations. The methods of computation from the curves of the Bessel functions are outlined briefly.

Three Mechanisms of Hearing by Electrical Stimulation12(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1916103View Description Hide Description
It was previously shown that when an alternating electric current is passed through the head via a salt solution in the external ear canal, a normal observer hears a tone which is related to the stimulus by a square law, that is to say, if the sound heard is interpreted in terms of motion of the tympanic membrane, then the displacement of the membrane is proportional to the square of the instantaneous voltage. The writers suggested the hypothesis that the cavity formed by the middle ear acts as an electrostatic transducer. This hypothesis accounted for the square‐law response and for certain quantitative aspects of the results. This hypothesis had to meet the objection, however, that persons without tympanic membranes are able to hear by electrical stimulation. In order to determine the relation between the hearing of normal and operated ears, twenty ears lacking tympanic membranes were stimulated electrically. Eleven ears heard pure tones corresponding in pitch to the frequency of the applied voltage; seven heard a buzzing noise whose character was roughly independent of the stimulating frequency. Examination showed that the pure‐tone response in the operated ears was purely linear, in contradistinction to the quadratic response of normal ears. Hence, under electrical stimulation normal and operated ears hear by means of two distinctly different mechanisms. The square‐law response in normal ears is apparently mediated by an electrostatic action in the middle ear. The linear response in operated ears may or may not be the inverse of the cochlear microphonic. Evidence is presented that direct stimulation of the auditory nerve occurs in those ears which bear a buzzing noise. This result is consistent with a "place theory" of hearing, and it suggests that the "frequency theory" of hearing is untenable even for low frequencies.
Results of the World's Fair Hearing Tests12(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1916104View Description Hide Description
The hearing test for musical tones which formed part of the Bell System exhibit at the New York and San Francisco Fairs is described. Average hearingacuity and the frequency of occurrence of various amounts of hearing loss are given as functions of age and sex. The relation of hearingacuity to place of residence, economic status and certain other factors is discussed briefly. Data from the two Fairs are used to determine the distribution of hearingacuity in the United States population, subject to certain stated limitations. Accuracy of the test is discussed in relation to ability of visitors to understand the test procedure, disturbing effect of background noise, and calibration of the test equipment. Certain results of the survey are expressed in terms of ear canal pressure and equivalent free field intensity, and on this basis a comparison is made with the results of other surveys of hearing.

I first presented on Oracle 10g Block Change Tracking Internals at UKOUG 06 in Birmingham.

I've done some additional research, filled in the blanks and corrected in a few places. Download it here.Read More >
Looks like our blog has turned into a MySQL blog over this week, so I have to do something about it. Luckily, I have zillions of pending posts, so I'll start with posting my presentations materials from this conference with my remarks on how it went in general.Read More >
I enjoyed the event and the venue very much. The presentations very generally very good, and to my surprise some of them were somewhat lighter than I would expect.

Just a small thought to share. Oracle doesn't really comply to the rule 11 of Codd's 12 rules. It does have database links and tables can be grouped in different locations (databases) but it's not possible to distribute a table transparently across several locations. MySQL Cluster, on the other hand, distributes rows of a table over different data nodes using hash function on the primary key and it's transparent to the client so it conforms to the Rule 11 as opposed to Oracle.Read More >

plays the music you love
Paul Lansky
Lansky's music is primarily done for the computer. To this end, he has written his own software in order to write his music, and has received recognition for this program, called CMIX. In addition, as a major writer on music, he has been published many times in Perspectives of New Music, bringing him recognition as a theorist and writer.
His music can not be pigeonholed. The style of his works changes radically from piece to piece, including everything from folk song in pieces like Folk-Images to the twelve-tone technique, such as in his String Quartet. His work in the latter style brought him into the sight of a wider audience, especially with his collaboration with Perle in the late 1960's and early 1970's. Lansky also experimented with timbre as a structural element, and has made many references to the styles of popular and folk music, as well as jazz.
1979 saw Lansky's music being primarily for electronic tape alone. Six Fantasies on a Poem by Thomas Campion was written as a pointed break from his other styles of writing. The piece was conceived and completed primarily using LPC synthesis techniques, which manipulate the original timbre on the reference tape to produce the sounds required for the complete work. Many of the pieces that follow Six Fantasies use the timbre of the human voice for manipulations.
Much of Lansky's music has been based upon the spoken human voice; not upon the words spoken necessarily, but rather their timbre, tone, and rhythm. To this end, many of his pieces (including Small Talk and Conversation Pieces) are based originally on conversations between he and his wife, Hannah MacKay. He adds to the vocal implications already present simple acoustic sounds from orchestral instruments and the piano, and using the computer combines them to create timbres otherwise impossible, yet somehow familiar.
When examining Paul Lansky and his music, it must be understood that almost the entirety of his output is dependent upon the computer and recordings of the individual works. Most are not designed for live performance; this leads to the question: What happens to the music as the technology changes? With computers still new in the overall design of musical composition and manipulation, no one can know for sure. What can be expected, however, is that the music of Paul Lansky will be seen as a milestone in the development of musical language, interpretation, and timbral conception. ~ Michael Blostein

The bath room floor has not been properly cleaned. The corners are dirty. It appears as if some one is using a towel and cleaning the middle and easy to reach areas of the floor. There was long black hair on the bathroom floor. Their was hair on the bottom of the shower hand rail as well as black mold/soap build up. There is black mold/soap build up on the caulking around the sides of the tub. The cap to connect the shower head to the wall was broken. Bed room floor was poorly vacuumed and paper was littered in the room (very small pieces) Other areas of the hotel appeared to be cleaned. July 17, 2016

Rated 4 out of 5 by BYount Rooms - especially beds need updating If you have visited West Lafayette you know it is almost impossible to find a full service hotel in proximity to Purdue where you would actually like to stay. This Sheraton, while it could use a facelift, is the best hotel I have found. While the hotel is a bit dated, the staff are great and the food surprisly good and not overpriced.

Rated 5 out of 5 by TravelMom2016 Management We checked into your hotel on Friday, March 4th. There was a gentlemen by the name of (I believe) Kumar at the front desk. What a kind and nice man. He was dealing with travel baseball parents who were not very nice to him and he never lost his charm. He handled everyone with kindness, even though he had plenty of reason not to. Kudos to him, most people would not have kept their composure. I wish every hotel we stayed at for travel baseball was like this! Thank you. March 7, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5 by Dan140 Avoid this hotel at all costs. Disgusting hotel!! I travel frequently and stay at Starwood properties 50+ nights per year and this hotel should be dropped by Starwood. We stayed 2 nights for a Purdue college tour and nobody cleaned our room during our stay even after multiple calls to the front desk. They couldn't even provide us new towels. I found half eaten pizza on the floor near the bed from the previous guests. There was only a partial roll of toilet paper, no tissues, amenities, etc. I complained multiple times to the front desk and never got a response from a manager. Avoid this hotel. February 8, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5 by softball7 horrible Absolutely horrible stay! Starting with the god awful dry food that was served as breakfast for the price that ws over charged! The front desk night workers were rude. The screaming and running up and down the halls ALL night!!! Called front desk TWICE to complain and was told the pool closes at 1030, not sure exactly wht the pool on the 1st floor has anything to do with kids RUNNING AND SCREAMING up and down halls!?!?!? We have kids that have to be up at 5am for softball games and the hotel did NOT attempt to control the other guests from acting like they were at a amusement park! Will never stay here again, and absolutely will discourage all the softball familes to do the same! January 23, 2016

Key facts
Plaid, with its simple design, rewrites the rules for what a hanging sound-absorbing product should look like. Its discreet suspension creates something of a floating impression. Plaid absorbs and dampens sound without taking up any floor space. Plaid comprises a sound-absorbing polyester board covered with laminated woolen fabric on both sides. The screen is suspended from the ceiling via wire pairs. The wires have locks which can quickly be adjusted to make assembly and height adjustments easier. Plaid is also available as a floor screen. The unique design of this screen is multifaceted, with absorbers suspended on both sides of a floor stand to allow for interchangeability.

Mark Clark, driving force in the Linxcel Trick Moto Racing team who finished runner up last season, heads up the new Seton Racing set-up, partnered by Andy Goddard, who was in the Pit Stop squad in 2014. Mark will be racing on one of the new R1 Yamahas, tuned by Phil Seton, who will be joining the team in future rounds.
Jim Laing and Kenny Paterson who only raced in one round last season at Knockhill, but the Scottish pair, under the banner of Scotbeen Racing, were the winners of the Knockhill round. They enjoyed themselves so much they immediately started making plans to race in more rounds this year and will be among the favourites at Brands.
Greg Allsop has left the Go Racing Developments line-up to join up with Motogrande Power Sport 600 runner-up. Richard Charlton in the new AC Racing squad. Allsop will ride his usual R1 Yamaha, while Charlton will be out for the first time on a Honda Fireblade.
Two youngsters, 26-year-old Jimmy Rose and Alex Olsen, 22, who will be racing for the Moto Breakers team in the British Superstock 1000 series, will be in action in the National 1000 class. Olsen, the 2014 Supersport EVO champion, raced once in last season's Hottrax series, while Rose makes his Endurance debut.
T. Watson Bikes, Rick Dickinson and Tom Stephens, last season's Clubman 1000 champions, will this year be running in the premier ACU National 1000 class.
The main rivals in last season's National 600 championship look set to continue where they left off.
The 2014 champions, Team Edge beat arch rivals, Team Sorrymate.com, by just 28 points. Team owner Nick Edgeley has teamed up with Johnny Towers in his bid to retain the crown, while 2013 title holders, Sorrymate.com pin their hopes once again on Colin Norris and Warren Verwey.
The second Moto Breakers team, consisting of 21-year-old Tom Carne and Wayne Ryan who is just 19, will add some spice to the National 600 class. Both are making their debut in Endurance events. The young pair will contest the British Superstock 600 class this season.
Watch out for another interesting new team Fast Past Pits, made up of Lincolnshire brothers Harry and Matt Truelove.
Reigning Clubman 1000 champions Team Big Lads are back in action for 2015, but this time Joe Connolly and Bob Barton will be taking part in the new Modern Classic Endurance series on their big Aprilias.
Joining them in the Modern Classic Endurance category will be Peter Blomfield and Sean Scott as the Dirt Wash Racing squad. Blomfield was second in the Protyre Superbike series last year, with Scott fifth in the final table.
Phil Guillou is best known as a top 250GP racer, but this year he joins up with Larry Halliday in an Endurance team. Halliday competed in the Clubman 1000 class in 2014, but this season the pair will run under the banner of Council Racing on Triumph 675s in the Clubman 600 series. The plan is to run the full season, but that depends on the work commitments of Halliday, who works on the oil rigs.
Guillou has never raced in an Endurance event before, but more to the point he has never ridden a four-stroke. He spent last weekend (Mar 13 and 14) learning to ride his Daytona round the Kent circuit.
Last year there were three Team Army squads competing in the Hottrrax series. This season it is up to four, with Clubman 600 champions Team Army 2 moving up into the National 600 class and Team Army 1 and 3 remaining in the Clubman 1000 series.
Team Army 4, Andrew Day, Paul Godfrey and Leon Wilton make their Hottrax debut in the Rookie 600 competition.
There is a mixture of new and previous competitors in the support classes.
Christian Holt, winner of the Linxcel Pre-National 1000 series in 2014 moves up to the Powerbike 1000 series this season. He faces strong opposition including Steve Neate, who was sixth in this event last season.
Stuart Dawson, who was fourth in the 2014 Motogrande Powersport 600 series, returns in a bid to do even better this season. Dawson along with Graham Hornby are also going to be competing in the ACU National 600 Endurance for the first time at Brands Hatch.
Amongst the opposition at Brands will be the very talented Sam Cox, the 23-year-old from East London on the Jack Lilley Triumph Daytona.
Nick Edgeley, owner of the Endurance Team Edge RST 1 will use the Powersport 600 series as extra track time.
Elwyn Fryer, the reigning Formula 400 champion, will return in a bid to retain his title. Last season's runner–up Ray Petty is back on his Kawasaki 400.
Fryer and Petty will team up for the three hour Endurance race on their nippy, but now elderly Kwackers, competing in the new Modern Classic class.
Owen Richardson the reigning Modern Classic Superbike champion, is hoping for an easier time this season. He had some cruel luck in 2014, but still took the title by a slender nine point's margin.
Richardson will face tough opposition from Sean Scott, who was fifth last season, Ian Pattinson, who was tenth in 2014 and Joe Connolly, who moves up from the Superbike EVO championship.
Raymond Stagg faces an equally tough task to retain the Modern Classic Superbike EVO title he took in 2014.
Bob Barton and John Bolsover are among those who could give Stagg a run for his money.
With none of the top ten from last season's Protyre Formula One lining up for the series this year, the path is open for a new champion. Darryl Holder could open a good lead at Brands.
David Stiff who was 4th in the 2014 Super Sport Pre-I returns for this season, with Rob Garland likely to do battle with him.
Garland will also race his Suzuki 650 in the Lightweight series.
Only Adam Shepherd out of the top 20 in last year's Super Sport EVO lines up for the opening round of this season's championship. Grant Collingwood will also be on the grid.
Johnny Towers, who partners Nick Edgeley in Team Edge's National 600 Endurance squad, will be racing in the Super Twins for more track time.
Matt Lawson, last year's Desmo Due Class A champion is out of this season's series, leaving the men who filled second and third places in the competition Keven Ellis and Phil Daravulla, to battle for success.
It will not be easy for them though as the top three in last year's Class B Championship, Andy Blomfield, Jim Brian and Andy Claridge are all moving up to take part in Class A.

Philadelphia, PA, January 9, 2004 … The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) today commended Urban Outfitters, Inc. for its decision to discontinue production of a t-shirt that perpetuates an ethnic stereotype of Jews.
The clothing item, part of a line of ethnic t-shirts, featured the language EVERYONE LOVES A JEWISH GIRL surrounded by dollar signs. The League wrote to Urban Outfitters, Inc. President Richard Hayne on January 6 to complain that the shirt reinforced a negative association between Jews and money and, as such, perpetuated an offensive stereotype.
Urban Outfitters, Inc. has reported that it chose to take this action because of both internal and external concerns and out of respect for the sensitivity of the Jewish community. It has also stated that future production of the shirt will not contain the dollar signs or any other graphic elements or embellishments.
The League expressed its gratitude and appreciation to Urban Outfitters, Inc. for this action showing sensitivity to its clients and to the Jewish community. The League also offered its assistance to the company in the future and expressed that it hopes that this experience, combined with another recent controversy surrounding an Urban Outfitters product that reinforced stereotypes, has served to sensitize the company to the sensibilities of its customer base and all ethnic groups.
The Anti-Defamation League, founded in 1913, is the world's leading organization fighting anti-Semitism through programs and services that counteract hatred, prejudice and bigotry.

Tasbīḥ (Arabic: تسبيح) is a form of dhikr that involves the repetitive utterances of short sentences in the praise and glorification of Allah, in Islam. To keep track of counting either the phalanges of the right hand or a misbaha is used. The misbaha is similar to the prayer rope of the Eastern Church and the rosary in the Roman Catholic Church.
The term tasbih is an irregular derivation from subhan, which is the first word of the constitutive sentence of the first third of the canonical form (see below) of tasbih. The word literally means, as a verb, "to travel swiftly" and, as a noun, "duties" or "occupation." However, in the devotional context, tasbih refers to Subhana Allah, which is often used in the Qur'an with the preposition 'an (عن), meaning "'God is [de]void' [of what they (polytheists) attribute to Him]" (Al-Tawba: 31, Al-Zumar: 67 et al.). Without this preposition, it means something like "Glory be to God."
Tasbih of Fatima[edit]
In the early years of the marriage of Ali and Fatimah, Ali earned little money, and was unable to afford a servant for Fatimah. Fatimah's hands were blistered from constant grinding; her neck had become sore from carrying water; her clothes had become dirty from sweeping the floor. One day Ali was aware that the prophet had some servants, and advised Fatimah to ask the prophet for one of his servants. Fatimah went, but she was unable to ask. Finally Ali went with Fatimah to the prophet's house. The prophet did not accept their request, saying "there are many orphans (starved), I must sell these servants to feed them". Then prophet said "I will give you one thing better than helping of servant". He taught them a special manner of dhikr which is known as the '' tasbih of Fatimah''. [1]
- Subhan'Allah (سبحان الله) (Glory be to Allah) – repeated 33 times.
- Alhamdulillah (الحمد لله) (Praise be to Allah) – repeated 33 times.
- Allahuakbar (الله أكبر) (Allah is the Greatest) – repeated 34 times.
After this adventure, Muslims have used to tasbih of Fatimah after his prayer.[2]
Narrated by Abu Huraira: Some poor people came to the Prophet and said, "The wealthy people will get higher grades and will have permanent enjoyment, and they pray like us and fast as we do. They have more money by which they perform the Hajj and 'Umra, fight and struggle in Allah's Cause and give in charity." The Prophet said, "Shall I not tell you a thing upon which if you acted you would catch up with those who have surpassed you? Nobody would overtake you, and you would be better than the people amongst whom you live except those who would do the same. Say "Sub-han-al-lah", "Alhamdu-lillah" and "Allahu Akbar" thirty three times each after every (compulsory) prayer." We differed, and some of us said that we should say "Subhan-al-lah" thirty three times and "Alhamdu lillah" thirty three times and "Allahu Akbar" thirty four times. I went to the Prophet, who said: "Say, "Subhan-al-lah" and "Alhamdu lillah" and "Allahu Akbar" all together for thirty three times." (Book #12, Hadith #804)
Dhikr is of great importance to the Muslims and believe that it has to be done as taught. However, adherents of the Salafi sect shun the use of Misbaha (prayer rope) as an innovation, preferring to stick to use of the fingers, one of the methods used by the Prophet Muhammad. He is recorded to have ordered to count dhikr on fingers in an accepted book of hadith, Abu Dawood: 1501.[3]
A Misbahah (Arabic: مسبحة), subhah (Arabic:سبحة), tasbih (Persian and Hindi-Urdu), or tespih (Albanian, Turkish and Bosnian) is a string of prayer beads which is often used by Muslims to keep track of counting in Tasbih. Also, it is the Arabic word for a prayer rope used by Christians to say the Jesus Prayer.
The Misbaḥah is also known as tasbih—not to be confused with Tasbih, a type of dhikr—in non-Arab Muslim regions, or subhah in Arabic. In Turkey, the beads are known as tespih.[4]
Made of[edit]
A Misbaḥah is a tool used to perform dhikr, including the 99 Names of Allah, and the glorification of God after regular prayer.
It is often made of wooden beads, but also of olive seeds, ivory, amber, pearls or plastic. A misbaha[5] usually consists of 99 beads (corresponding to the 99 Names of Allah), or sometimes 33 beads (in which case one cycles through them 3 times to equal 99).
It is thought that in the early Muslim era, loose pebbles were used or that people counted on their fingers.[6]
According to the 17th-century ʻAllāmah Muhammad Baqir Majlisi, after the Battle of Uḥud, Fāṭimah would visit the Martyrs' Graveyard every two or three days, and then made a misbaḥah of Ḥamzah ibn ʻAbd al-Muṭṭalib's grave-soil. After that, people started making and using misbaḥahs.[citation needed]
According to a book written by Sidi Gabalza, the first who used misbaha is sufism, which combined the thought between Islam, Jews, Catholic, Manawi, Majus, Hindu and Buddha, along with the mystical philosophy of Pythagoras.[7] However some hadiths state the benefit of using the fingers of the right hand to count tasbīḥ.[8]

All the first employees of our new venture Vgo came from corporate backgrounds. None of them had worked at a startup before. The entire Vesess team, on the other hand, had never worked at anything other than a startup: for every one of us, Vesess has been the first and only place of work. There was clearly a culture gap to be bridged.
Venture capitalists, harbour front offices and lavish launch parties are not for us. We don't outsource, we don't subcontract, and we only hire the very best.Read the Vesess Story

All of that losing wasn't a waste.
"In retrospect, it was a mistake (going to Tampa Bay)," he said. "But I wanted to be home. I learned a lot. I learned about managing young kids. I learned about patience. In this business you learn a lot more from losing than winning, and there I learned a hell of a lot."
The Cubs have been using plenty of young players this season, and during a tight drive for the National League Central title, players such as Ryan Theriot, Geovany Soto, Matt Murton, Carlos Marmol and Kevin Hart have made an impact.
"The young kids bring a lot of enthusiasm and vim and vigor to the situation," Piniella said. "We used a lot of young kids here."
MARLINS 4, CUBS 2: Ted Lilly gave up four second-inning runs and Marlins pitcher Dontrelle Willis shut the Cubs out for seven innings before Craig Monroe hit a two-run homer in the eighth. It wasn't enough, though, and the Cubs' four-game winning streak was snapped at Dolphin Stadium. The Cubs had just three hits on the night. Cubs relievers threw four innings of shutout ball, but the offense wasn't able to get rolling. The Cubs' lead over Milwaukee shrank to two games with five left in the season.
INSIDE EDGE: Cubs manager Lou Piniella might be changing his mind on using Steve Trachsel on Thursday against Florida. He hasn't pitched since Sept. 13. "We're probably going to tweak our pitching between now and Sunday," Piniella said. "Whoever is scheduled -- I wouldn't exactly go to the bank with it."
--LHP Ted Lilly had one bad inning, but it cost him dearly. Lilly gave up four second-inning runs in what turned out to be a 4-2 loss to Florida. It was his first loss since Aug. 25.
--SS Ryan Theriot, who missed Sunday's game with back spasms, was back in the lineup.
--RHP Carlos Zambrano, who left Sunday's game after six innings because of right forearm cramps, threw in the outfield on Tuesday, and manager Lou Piniella said Zambrano would be able to make his next start, either Friday or Saturday against Cincinnati.
--C Jason Kendall has not been getting much playing time because rookie Geovany Soto has been hot. But manager Lou Piniella said the veteran is getting rest and letting a banged-up right thumb heal and will be ready when called on.
--RHP Jason Marquis will try to get the Cubs back on the winning track on Wednesday. In his last appearance on Friday, he gave up seven runs in 2 2/3 innings. But the Cubs rallied to win the game, 13-8, and he did not get a decision.

By Bill Tumas: We're here with a Billet Aluminum Firewall Clutch Cable Adjuster fitting your 1979-2004 Mustang. This Firewall Mounted Clutch Cable Adjuster is made of T-6061 Aluminum and it's a great way to have easy adjustments on the clutch cable of your 1979-2004 Mustang. It will require the use of an aftermarket quadrant because the adjustability is going to mount on your firewall and replace the plastic spacer found on your clutch cable. What you'll do is basically turn these ends here, and that'll allow you to adjust where exactly the clutch is going to pick up when driving your Mustang. This aluminum adjuster includes the mounting screws and the necessary tool for locking it in place. This firewall adjuster is available separately, but it's also available in kit form, which is going to include a new clutch cable and the necessary quadrant.

Red Hat: More Turnover and Profit Thanks to Linux
Linux distributor Red Hat has reported increased turnover and profits in its interim report for the second quarter. The company mainly owes these promising figures to its Linux business.
The second quarter 2008 ended August 31, 2007 for Red Hat, whose business year ends February 29, 2008. Red Hat reported a turnover of US$ 127.3 in the second quarter, which is equivalent to a 28 percent increase compared to last year's figures, and seven percent up on the first quarter of 2008. Red Hat mainly owes its success to sales of software subscriptions of its enterprise Linux variant. Turnover of Red Hat Enterprise Linux totaled US$ 109.2 m, which is 29 percent up on the previous year's figures of US$ 84.9 m, and six percent up on the previous quarter. Net profits rose by 64 percent to US$ 18.2 m, compared with US$ 11 m in 2006. On a per share basis this means a dividend of US$ 0.09 compared with US$ 0.05 last year. Red Hat points to the more than 3000 applications that are now certified on the Red Hat platform.
Charlie Peters, Red Hat's Chief Financial Officer was also pleased with the development of operative profits and cash flow. "We continue to deliver strong operating profitability and cash flow". Peters sees the demand for Open Source solutions continuing to grow, and sees the need to invest in infrastructure in the interest of Red Hat's shareholders.
Parallel to the interim report, Peters had two personnel announcements to make. The previous head of the Red Hat Financial Division, Mark Cook, is being promoted to Vice President Finance and Controller; Paul Argiry will be taking over the position as Vice President and Treasurer. Cook joined Red Hat in 2004; Argiry's last position was as the Chief Financial Officer with Californian electronics corp., Jabil Circuit.
This is the third change to Red Hat's executive team in just a few days, with marketing boss Tim Yeaton having been replaced by Michael Chen. At the beginning of the week, Red Hat's shares had been downgraded from "outperforming" to "neutral" due to organizational and structural issues that started with the acquisition of middleware vendor Jboss.
