Proliferation of Computing Languages
There is a proliferation of computer languages today like never before. In this page, i list some of them.
In the following, i try to list some of the languagess that are created after 2000, or become very active after 2000.
Lisp family or similar:
- Mathematica. Computer algebra system background. Used mostly for math and research in science & engineering community.
- newLISP. Lisp scripting style. Verdant community of new generation of hobbyist programers.
- Arc. Paul Graham squeezing juice out of his celebrity status. 〔➤see Paul Graham's Infatuation with the Concept of Hacker〕
- Qi. Common Lisp added with modern functional language features. Primarily academic and language research.
- Clojure. A new lisp dialect on Java platform. Poised as the next industrial lisp, but faces serious competition with other JVM based languages such as Scalar, Groovy.
- Scheme, notably PLT Scheme. Used mostly for teaching.
- (Dead. Dylan. Apple's re-invention of lisp for industrial programers, active in the 1990s.)
ML Family:
- OCaml. Almost all current theorem proofing systems are based on.
- Alice. Concurrent, ML derivative. Saarland University, Germany.
- F#. Microsoft's offer, based on OCaml.
ML/OCaml derived Proof systems in industrial use:
〔➤see State of Theorem Proving Systems 2008〕
Modern Functional languages:
- Erlang. Functional, concurrent. Mostly used in a telecommunication industry for concurrency and continuous up-time features.
- Haskell Oldish, classic functional language. Mostly used in academia for teaching and language research.
- Concurrent Clean pure functional programing language, similar to haskell.
- Mercury. Logic, functional.
- Q. Functional language, based on term rewriting. Replaced by Pure.
- Oz. Concurrent. Multi-paradigm. Mostly used in teaching.
Perl family or derivative:
- PHP. Perl derivative for server side web apps. One of the top 5 most popular languages.
- Ruby. Perl with rectified syntax and semantics. Somewhat used in industry. User numbers probably less than 5% of Perl or Python.
- Perl6. Next generation of perl. In alpha stage.
- Sleep. A scripting language, perl syntax. On Java platform. http://sleep.dashnine.org/
On Java Virtual Machine:
- Scala. A FP+OOP language on Java platform as a Java alternative.
- Groovy. Scripting language on Java platform.
C derivatives:
- ObjectiveC. Strict superset of C. Used as the primary language by Apple for OS X app dev.
- C#. Microsoft's answer to Java. Quickly becoming top 10 language with Microsoft's ".NET" architecture.
- D. Clean up of C++.
- Go. Google's new language as improvement of C.
2D graphics related.
- Scratch. Derived from SmallTalk + Logo. Primarily for teaching children programing.
- ActionScript. Based on JavaScript but for interactive 2D graphics. Quickly becomes top 10 language due to popularity of Adobe Flash.
- Processing. 2D graphics on Java platform. Primarily used for art and teaching.
- PowerShell. A modern shell. A scripting language designed also for interactive use. Syntax similar to Perl and unix shell tools, but based ".Net".
- Tcl. Scripting, especially for GUI.
- Lua. Scripting, popular as a scripting language in games.
- Linden Scripting Language. Used in virtual world Second Life. 〔➤see Xah's Linden Scripting Language (LSL) Tutorial〕
Some Random Thoughts
Following are some random comments on comp languages.
Listing Criterion and Popularity
In the above, i tried to not list implementations. (➢ for example: huge number of Scheme implemented in JVM with fluffs here and there; also ➢ for example: JPython, JRuby, and quite a lot more.) Also, i tried to avoid minor derivatives or variations. Also, i tried to avoid languages that's one-man's fancy with little following.
In the above, i tried to list only "new" languages that are born or seen with high activity or awareness after 2000. But without this criterion, there are quite a few staples that still have significant user base. ⁖ APL, Fortran, Cobol, Forth, Logo (many variants), Pascal (Ada, Modula, Delphi). And others that are today top 10 most popular languages: C++, Visual Basic.
The user base of the languages differ by some magnitude. Some, such as for example PHP, C#, are within the top 10 most popular language with active users. Some others, are niche but still with sizable user base, such as LSL, Erlang, Mathematica. Others are niche but robust and industrial (counting academia), such as Coq (a proof system), Processing, PLT Scheme, AutoLISP. Few are mostly academic followed with handful of researchers or experimenters, Qi, Arc, Mercury, Q, Concurrent Clean are probably examples.
For those of you developers of Java, Perl, Python for example, it would be fruitful to spend a hour or 2 to look at the Wikipedia articles about these, or their home pages. Wikipedia has several pages that is a listing of comp languages, of which you can read about perhaps over 2 hundreds of languages.
Why The List
I was prompted to have a scan at these new language because recently i wrote a article titled Fundamental Problems of Lisp, which mentioned my impression of a proliferation of languages (and all sorts of computing tools and applications). Quote:
10 years ago, in the dot com days (≈1998), where Java, JavaScript, Perl are screaming the rounds. It was my opinion, that lisp will inevitably become popular in the future, simply due to its inherent superior design, simplicity, flexibility, power, whatever its existing problems may be. Now i don't think that'll ever happen as is. Because, due to the tremendous technological advances, in particular in communication (i.e. the internet and its consequences, ➢ for example: Wikipedia, YouTube, YouPorn, social networks sites, blogs, Instant chat, etc) computer languages are proliferating like never before. (➢ for example: Erlang, OCaml, Haskell, PHP, Ruby, c#, f#, perl6, arc, newLISP, Scala, Groovy, Goo, Nice, E, Q, Qz, Mercury, Scratch, Flash, Processing, …, helped by the abundance of tools, libraries, parsers, existence of infrastructures) New languages, basically will have all the advantages of lisps or lisp's fundamental concepts or principles. I see that, perhaps in the next decade, as communication technologies further hurl us forward, the proliferation of languages will reduce to a trend of consolidation (➢ for example: fueled by virtual machines such as Microsoft's .NET.).
Creating a language is Easy
In general, creating a language is relatively easy to do in comparison to equivalent-sized programing tasks in the industry (such as, for example, writing robust signal processing lib, a web server (➢ for example: video web server), a web app framework, a game engine … etc.). Computing tasks typically have a goal, where all sorts of complexities and nit-gritty detail arise in the coding process. Creating a language often is simply based on a individual's creativity that doesn't have much fixed constraints, much as in painting or sculpting. Many languages that have become popular, in fact arose this way. Popularly known examples includes Perl, Python, Ruby, Perl6, Arc. Creating a language requires the skill of writing a compiler though, which isn't trivial, but today with mega proliferation of tools, even the need for compiler writing skill is reduced. (➢ for example: Arc, various languages on JVM. (10 years ago, writing a parser is mostly not required due to existing tools such as lex/yacc))
Some language are created to solve a immediate problem or need. Mathematica, Adobe Flash's ActionScript, Emacs Lisp, LSL would be good examples. Some are created as computer science research byproducts, usually using or resulting a new computing model. Lisp, Prolog, SmallTalk, Haskell, Qi, Concurrent Clean, are of this type.
Infinite Number of Syntax and Semantics
Looking at some tens of languages, one might think that there might be some unifying factor, some unifying theory or model, that limits the potential creation to a small set of types, classes, models. With influence from Stephen Wolfram book "A New Kind of Science" 〔➤see Notes on A New Kind of Science〕 , i'd think this is not so. That is to say, different languages are potentially endless, and each can become quite useful or important or with sizable user base. In other words, i think there's no theoretical basis that would govern what languages will be popular due to its technical/mathematical properties. Perhaps another way to phrase this imprecise thought is that, languages will keep proliferating, and even if we don't count languages that created by one-man's fancy, there will still probably be forever birth of languages, and they will all be useful or solve some niche problem, because there is no theoretical or technical reason that sometimes in the future there would be one language that can be fittingly used to solve all computing problems.
Also, the possibilities of language's syntax are basically unlimited, even considering the constraint that they be practical and human readable. So, any joe, can potentially create a new syntax. The syntax of existing languages, when compared to the number of all potentially possible (human readable) syntax, are probably a very small fraction. That is to say, even with so many existing languages today with their wildly differing syntax, we probably are just seeing a few pixels in a computer screen.
Also note here all languages mentioned here are all plain-text linear ones. Spread sheet and visual programing languages would be example of 2D syntax… but i haven't thought about how they can be classified as syntax. (nor do i fully understand the ontology of syntax )
Just some extempore thoughts.
Pure, Vala, Genie
New programing languages.
- Pure @ http://purelang.bitbucket.org/ (a pattern matching, term-rewriting lang.)
- Vala @ http://live.gnome.org/Vala (improved C)
- Genie @ http://live.gnome.org/Genie (like Vala, but python-like syntax)
Discovered a new programing language. Factor. See: Point Free Programing.
The Fantom Language, and a Scathing Review of Scala
There are endless languages. Just discovered Fantom.
Fantom is a general purpose object-oriented programming language created by Brian and Andy Frank[4] that runs on the Java Runtime Environment (JRE), JavaScript, and the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR) (.NET support is considered "prototype"[5] status). Its primary design goal is to provide a standard library API[6] that abstracts away the question of whether the code will ultimately run on the JRE or CLR. Like C# and Java, Fantom uses a curly brace syntax. The language supports functional programming through closures and concurrency through the Actor model. Fantom takes a "middle of the road" approach to its type system, blending together aspects of both static and dynamic typing.
Also, there's this scathing review of Scala by someone who seems to be a Java platform expert.
Scala feels like EJB 2, and other thoughts By Stephen Colebourne. @ http://blog.joda.org/2011/11/scala-feels-like-ejb-2-and-other.html
Ι don't know Java platform well, not having worked in the industry for many years, but i tend to agree with him on his views.
CoffeeScript, Google Dart, Microsoft TypeScript, asm.js
Google created Google Dart. Microsoft created TypeScript. See: TypeScript Will Kill CoffeeScript and Dart❕.
Then, in ≈, asm.js is created. Home page at http://asmjs.org/.
Here's some blogs about it:
- one of the asm.js creator: 〔What asm.js is and what asm.js isn't By Alon Zakai. @ http://mozakai.blogspot.com/2013/06/what-asmjs-is-and-what-asmjs-isnt.html〕

just learned there's a new lang: Rust, developed by Mozilla Labs. Started in 2010. Quote from Wikipedia:
Rust is an experimental, concurrent, multi-paradigm, compiled programming language developed by Mozilla Labs. It is designed to be practical, supporting pure-functional, concurrent-actor, imperative-procedural, and object-oriented styles.
The lead developer is Graydon Hoare, who began work on the system in 2006; Mozilla became involved in 2009, and officially unveiled the language for the first time at Mozilla Summit 2010. In 2010, work shifted from the initial compiler, written in OCaml, to the self-hosted compiler written in Rust itself. It successfully compiled itself the following year. The self-hosted compiler uses LLVM as its backend.
Julia is a new lang for scientific computing. New around 2011: http://julialang.org/
it's a competitor to number crunchers R, MATLAB, and others.
interestingly, on Julia site, it shows that it's a order faster than all similar scripting language. Julia's speed seems to be close to optimized C code, and is a stated goal of the language design.
A lang based on Parsing Expression Grammar, called OMeta, by Alessandro Warth.
OMeta: an Object-Oriented Language for Pattern Matching By Alessandro Warth. @ http://tinlizzie.org/ometa/
Tom Novelli provided the following insights and links:
Yeah, that seems promising. there's actually a long history behind it; see for example 〔Pragmatic Parsing in Common Lisp By Henry G Baker, Nimble Computer Corporation. @ http://home.pipeline.com/~hbaker1/Prag-Parse.html〕
I found a copy of Val Schorre's META-II paper from 50 years ago… and some followup work throughout the 1960s (➢ for example: TREE-META)… these guys were in Douglas Englebart's group. Then apparently the military took it over and made it classified, probably ruined it with bureaucracy rather than developing it into awesome top-secret technology, heh ☺

learned about Elm (programming language). http://elm-lang.org/
Elm is a functional programming language for declaratively creating web browser based graphical user interfaces. Elm uses the Functional Reactive Programming style and purely functional graphical layout to build user interface without any destructive updates.
Elm was designed by Evan Czaplicki as his thesis in 2012.[2] The first release of Elm came with many examples and an online editor that made it easy to try out in a web browser.[3] Evan Czaplicki now works on Elm at Prezi.[4]
The initial implementation of the Elm compiler targets HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.[5] The set of core tools has continued to expand, now including a REPL,[6] package manager,[7] time-traveling debugger,[8] and installers for Mac and Windows.[9] Elm also has an ecosystem of community created libraries.[10]
Haxe is an open source high-level multi-platform programming language and compiler that can produce applications and source code for many different platforms from a single code-base.[1][2][3][4]
Haxe includes a set of common functionality that is supported across all platforms, such as numeric data types, text, arrays, binary and some common file formats.[2][5] Haxe also includes platform-specific API for Adobe Flash, C++, PHP and other languages.[2][6]
Code written in the Haxe language can be source-to-source compiled into ActionScript 3 code, JavaScript programs, Java, C#, C++ standalone applications, Python, PHP, Apache CGI, and Node.js server-side applications.[2][5][7]
Haxe is also a full-featured ActionScript 3-compatible Adobe Flash compiler, that can compile a SWF file directly from Haxe code.[2][8] Haxe can also compile to Neko applications, built by the same developer.
Major users of Haxe include TiVo, Prezi, Nickelodeon, Disney, Mattel, Hasbro, Coca Cola, Toyota and BBC.[9][10] OpenFL and Flambe are popular Haxe frameworks that enable the creation of multi-platform content from a single codebase.[10] With HTML5 dominating over Adobe Flash in recent years, Haxe, Unity and other cross-platform tools are increasingly necessary to target modern platforms while providing backward compatibility with Adobe Flash Player.[10][11]
Facebook created a new lang: hacklang. Basically, it's PHP with optional type system, with type inference. Designed to run existing PHP code as much as possible. Already deployed in large scale by Facebook.
I think this is fantastic.
announcement: 〔Hack: a new programming language for HHVM By Julien Verlaguet, Alok Menghrajani. @ https://code.facebook.com/posts/264544830379293/hack-a-new-programming-language-for-hhvm/〕

egison, pattern matching language.
Swift is a multi-paradigm, compiled programming language created by Apple Inc. for iOS, OS X, and watchOS development. Swift is designed to work with Apple's Cocoa and Cocoa Touch frameworks and the large body of existing Objective-C code written for Apple products. Swift is intended to be more resilient to erroneous code ("safer") than Objective-C, and also more concise. It is built with the LLVM compiler framework included in Xcode 6, and uses the Objective-C runtime, allowing C, Objective-C, C++ and Swift code to run within a single program.[8]
Elixir is a functional, concurrent, general-purpose programming language that runs on the Erlang virtual machine (BEAM). Elixir builds on top of Erlang to provide distributed, fault-tolerant, soft real-time, non-stop applications but also extends it to support metaprogramming with macros and polymorphism via protocols.[3]
- A language that compiles to bytecode for the Erlang Virtual Machine (BEAM)[5]
- Everything is an expression[5]
- Erlang functions can be called from Elixir without run time impact, due to compilation to Erlang bytecode, and vice versa
- Meta programming allowing direct manipulation of AST[5]
- Polymorphism via a mechanism called protocols. Like in Clojure, protocols provide a dynamic dispatch mechanism. However, this is not to be confused with multiple dispatch as Elixir protocols dispatch on a single type.
- Support for documentation via Python-like docstrings in the Markdown formatting language[5]
- Shared nothing concurrent programming via message passing (Actor model)[6]
- Emphasis on recursion and higher-order functions instead of side-effect-based looping
- Lightweight concurrency utilizing Erlang's mechanisms with simplified syntax (e.g. Task)[5]
- Lazy and async collections with streams
- Pattern matching[5]
- Unicode support and UTF-8 strings

new language, Kotlin, from JetBrains. Runs on Java Virtual Machine. Similar to Java, but designed to improve java.
Kotlin is a statically-typed programming language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine and also can be compiled to JavaScript source code. Its primary development is from a team of JetBrains programmers based in Saint Petersburg, Russia (the name comes from the Kotlin Island, near St. Petersburg).
While not syntax compatible with Java, Kotlin is designed to interoperate with Java code and is reliant on Java code from the existing Java Class Library, such as the collections framework.

Let you friends know so we a can get 50 people.
I'm brand new to the boating forum but I've been around electric planes for a few years, and I have to admit some disappointment that there isn't even a scratchbuild section for those of us who flat refuse to buy kits. Only when I was bored one day skipping from boring kit build log to exasperatingly boring kit build log did I stumble upon the springer thread, which quickly lead to building my first ever RC boat. If it had been in a scratchbuilt boats forum (which I looked around for in vain) I might have been interested years ago and hey maybe some of my hobby cash would have went to the tiny boat suppliers who depend on new customers and a growing market. The lack of a free plans thread means I now have to come up with my own designs, something I never bothered to do over in the populous foamy airplane forum. So to take a small step toward correcting this I will publish any plans I come up with in the hopes of planting another seed next to the great springer oak.
But to get back on topic, why not a separate place for airboats? to me they are not boats but sea planes sans wings. Interesting in their own right but separate from submerged props and wet rudders. And, if the 5 or so yahoos out there playing with ROV's (I plan to dip a toe at some point myself) get their own forum, why not the probable dozens of airboat fans? (pun intended!)
Now hey please I don't mean to start a discussion about whether or not airboats are real boats. This is just my opinion and it shan't be swayed.
Every legitimate nitch of our hobby deserves to be recognized, airboats are nothing new and these airboat guys are important too. Its pretty lame for the idea to be killed by people who don't have an interest in airboats, just to avoid clutter in the already anemic boating forum. With a pot so small with no chance for long roots or new branches is a great way to train bonsai but I don't think treating hobbyists like that is wise.
Perhaps thats the way some people would like to keep it, to dissuade new competitors from entering the market to protect their over-inflated kit prices and dissuade a scratch building culture. But as I said I'm new here.
Oh, and YES, this is a good idea.
'Balkanisation', the nerve!
I'm curious, does each forum have its own financial sponsorship? is this a business decision or is it merely political? That sort of no might be more helpful than comparing hobbyists with wide and varying interests to small warring nations unwilling to unite under a single spit-shined boot.

Congrats, your contributions are under "ignore"
Oh, and as far as having illusions and delusions of power and influence... I know I am just one voice amongst many and really don't care for it to be otherwise. We are pretty much all dedicated to the hobby, very few of us are in this for 'the glory.'
Having a 'sticky' at the top of Dock Talk works; probably better than if the springers would have had a specialized forum that hid them away from the everyday traffic that reads Dock Talk daily.
It's okay Craig, I voted against it too at the time. I regret that now seeing as how there is clearly a ton of support for classic wooden boats, how a lot of people who like them also contribute to other topics (such as yourself) and how frankly, i dont' like 'em at all. I feel like I helped screw a bunch of people and ended up screwing myself on that one, every time i click on "1943 CORVETTE" threads thinking Im gonna see a convoy escort.

Need more people, were get'n closer.
As mentioned in the other thread, while I'm not a builder of Airboats I still feel that if there is enough interest in them and they want their own Forum, they should be allowed to have it.
I vote "Yes".
Hope you folks get what you want; Good Luck!

CONCORD, NH -- The winner of the $487 million Powerball jackpot has claimed the winnings in New Hampshire. The winning ticket was sold at the Hannaford Supermarket in the town of Raymond on July 30.
People have been wondering since that time who the lucky person is. And we still don't know. The owner of that lucky ticket has done an incredible job of keeping the news under wraps.
Monday an attorney representing the winner announced that a trust has been set up for the winner and the money was distributed into that fund last week. The winner bought a ticket with five wagers on it. One of the numbers hit big, in fact it was the second largest individual jackpot in world lottery history. That means only one person won the entire thing. It wasn't shared with other winners or other people in on the ticket.
The winner opted for a lump sum which amounts to $341 million before taxes, $256 million after Uncle Sam took his cut. The attorney announced the winner is donating 100-thousand dollars to six local charities, the start of what's expected to be an on-going philanthropic campaign.
"As evident from our presence the winners would like to preserve their anonymity at this point in time they are committed to using these funds for philanthropic causes and to make a positive impact on the lives of their family," said winner's attorney William Shaheen.
"In 50 some odd years of being a lottery this is the biggest when we've had in our history in fact the amount of money in question is more money than we gave away all last year," said NH Lottery Executive Director Charlie McIntyre.
Earlier officials at the Hannaford in Raymond announced they were donated the money won for selling the ticket $75,000 plus they added another $25,000 to it.
Donations announced by the winner's attorney matched those donations. Five out of the six organizations receiving the money work to feed the hungry.

Some question about DLC
sprazer posted on Nov 04, 2009 11:20:19 AM - Report post
I have this game and already played it for a while...
my question is.. will the expansion work with my saved game? like if I get "the stone prisoner" DLC one installed, will I get the golem NPC in my saved game or I will have to start the new game to make it work
I'm sorry for my english, appreciate any reply!
thanks : )
Shotgunmaniac posted on Nov 04, 2009 11:28:20 AM - Report post
It should work, as you don't meet the character or generally get involved in the quest for it until after you can travel through the world map. I've had the DLC installed since I started though, so I can't be entirely sure.
stee01 posted on Nov 04, 2009 11:31:32 AM - Report post
I would've thought so. It would be pretty stupid to charge you $15 for DLC and then expect you to start the game from scratch
bryanskrantz posted on Nov 04, 2009 11:45:08 AM - Report post
you don't need to start from scratch. the DLC is already installed onto your hard drive so you can access it. the new areas are accessed via world map

Oscarweb Round-up: Calling it too soon on '50/50'
Linked in today's round-up is a piece from the LA Times' Steven Zeitchik asking what went wrong at the box office for "50/50." It's a shame, really, the instant analysis and diagnosis of films that hit and land a bit softly at the box office in opening week. "50/50" strikes me as a film that will build a bit of interest through word of mouth and maybe stack some more dollars in its favor. Then again, I thought "Warrior" would have been the same, but it started low and went further down the box office drain.
The point is, I think it's unfortunate that the popular identity of a film has to be made or broken in the media based on first weekend numbers. Look at something like "The Help," which didn't even open in the top spot but soon claimed it and stayed there for three weeks straight. Let a film find that identity before assigning one to it. Anyway, let's see what's going on in the Oscarweb today...

Easy Rider filmmaker Dennis Hopper was rushed to a New York City emergency room by ambulance Wednesday, reported ET.
The actor, 73, was wearing an oxygen mask when he was wheeled in, sources tell ET. His rep, Sheila Feren, later confirmed to the Associated Press that Hopper was suffering flu-like symptoms and complaining of a stomach ailment when he was admitted to an unidentified New York medical facility.
Hopper, who has played intense, insane characters in such films as Apocalypse Now and Blue Velvet, was nominated for Oscars for Easy Rider and Hoosiers.
Feren said he has been forced to cancel New York interview appearances to promote his new Starz series Crash, based on the 2004 Oscar-winning Best Picture.

This story first appeared in the July 15, 2002 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
NEW YORK — Factors, functioning in their customary role as the fashion industry's platinum card, are hopeful that a slight easing of inventory constraints by stores will help them in the second half.
The first half of fiscal 2002 was a time of almost unparalleled uncertainty for the industry, as the Kmart bankruptcy, corporate accounting scandals and geopolitical strife conspired to create an unstable economic environment where doing business as a factor was perhaps as difficult as it has been in decades.
On the other hand, post-Sept. 11 inventory reductions have pretty much run their course, and now factors have an opportunity to grow their businesses as stores replenish their stocks. Now that the very challenging first six months of the year are past, most major players are making do or doing well, even if they don't see a significant upsurge in sales taking place until the first half of 2003.
As Barry Essig, president of refactor Spectrum Financial, said, "I've been doing this for 40 years and this is by far the most unusual performance of the economy I've ever experienced."
That said, Spectrum started slowly but did pick up steam over each month of the first half of the year. From January through March, business was soft, said Essig. "But April, May and June were very good," he said. "We've had much stronger volume from existing clients as well as some new business. But it's difficult to say how much of that is inventory replacement. As for the second half, there's still big questions. Some of our clients are optimistic and some are very uncertain."
In the second half, at least, there will be less uncertainty about the biggest player in the factoring business, CIT Group, which was spun off from troubled parent Tyco International in a $4.6 billion initial public offering at the beginning of this month. Tyco spent $9.5 billion to buy CIT in 2001. While the IPO failed to deliver to Tyco the amount of cash it was hoping for, the spinning off of CIT reassured manufacturers who were concerned that Tyco's accounting problems might spill over and handicap CIT, the nation's largest and most diverse financial services company.
For different reasons, Rosenthal & Rosenthal, a New York-based factor, also had a rough first half. "Business was very soft and essentially flat with last year," said executive vice president Jerry Sandak. "I think it will get better in the second half, but only as a result of our being aggressive rather than our clients improving their businesses. The way things are going in the soft goods industry, we have to add new business because if our clients aren't doing business, we're not doing business."
As for the the immediate future of the U.S. economy, Sandak is not bullish at all. "I'm not looking for sales increases until the first half of 2003," he said.
Capital Factors also reported a sluggish start to the year, but does expect some improvement in the near term. "Apparel has been somewhat slow with our clients playing it pretty close to the vest," said senior vice president and regional manager Scott MacMillan. "People felt guilty about shopping with job uncertainty and so we're off a little bit but not too significantly in volume. In the first half our clients didn't get a lot of reorders because retailers didn't see traffic in their stores and they were careful with inventory.
"But for the second half, we expect things to get better. Our client orders are up and getting better. And on our business side things are looking pretty good and we're getting more business from banks who don't want to take the risks."
As for the future performance of the economy as a whole, MacMillan essentially said anyone's guess is as good as his: "You see what the stock market is doing daily. The attacks in Israel make people nervous. There is just a lot of uncertainty. There have been a lot of layoffs, and people worried about their jobs or their overtime just don't spend."
HSBC Bank USA also reports a slowdown in business activity due to what might be termed the usual suspects. "Our business is basically on par with last year," said executive vice president Marvin Rabinowitz. "Loan activity has remained stagnant because our customer base is managing its inventory better than ever before due to concern after Sept. 11. So they've maintained a very cautious approach. From a portfolio point of view we are in excellent shape. Hopefully the second half will pick up since inventories are down and balance sheets are clean."
Tom Pizzo, president of Century Business Credit, cited an aggressive approach to customer service and greater emphasis on a wider range of services for what he described as "excellent" business conditions: "We've had a very good year of growth and have added new clients."
Century this year has leaned more heavily on trade finance and letters of credit, businesses that have been shaken loose from the aftermath of the consolidation in the factoring business that occurred over the past two years and has now settled down. As for the future, Pizzo sees business continuing to pick up but with the economy in such a state of flux, it's impossible to say by how much with any real certainty.
General Electric's factoring business was also very robust in the first half. "It has been great," said senior vice president of marketing Jay Desmarteau. "We have had good new business volume and our pipeline is healthy. The uncertainty has actually helped our business side because customers want credit information and analysis on whom they sell to as well as credit protection. That's something we have the resources to really excel at."
The confusing and contradictory state of affairs is demonstrated in the first-half performance of New York-based Milberg Factors, whose success came as something of a shock. "Surprisingly, our business was up 15 to 20 percent in the first half, so we are very pleased. We have greater volume and picked up new clients who were dissatisfied with our larger competitors. At the same time some of our larger existing clients are actually doing quite well."
On the other hand, Milberg admits that the Kmart bankruptcy filing was the single worst event of the first half and "we certainly took our licks on that," he said. But even so, with the current course going well and the addition of new clients who have never factored before, Milberg is "incredibly optimistic" and "very bullish" about his company's prospects in the second half.
However, Milberg said the same cannot be said about the anticipated performance of the larger U.S. economy.

With drugs, as with people, old familiar friends become trusted friends, and we tend to ignore their latent potentials for harm. The problems presented and the questions implied by the letters of Robinson and Kohlstaedt warrant serious consideration by all physicians and prompt attention from the experts.

Rick: Blacks were not the only slaves. When will people understand that? Irish slaves were treated even worse and the Chinese were used to build the railroads. Recent studies show that there are more slaves in the world today than there was back in the height of American slavery. This is a way to give more blacks free money although no American blacks have been a slave or have ever known anyone that was a slave, but I guess they want compensated for that. Slave owners, back in the day made up much less than 1% of the population, so why would everyone's tax dollars have to pay for this when we already pay for welfare and other entitlement programs? Get over it. It happened a long time ago.

What's the story on the .38 Super? Looking into some 1911 options and came across this caliber. I'm not familiar with it what so ever. How does it compare to the .45 ACP? What are the pros and cons?

Most commonly seen in USPSA and IPSC competitions. Hot load used to make power requirements in the race/space guns. Expensive.
July 16, 2008, 03:07 PM
Use the search function. There are dozens of posts here about .38 Super V. .45 ACP.
July 16, 2008, 07:10 PM
.38 Super was developed in 1929 post-Roaring 20s,
shootouts with BG's - police wanted a high velocity cartridge
with penetration into vehicles. Remember this was the day
of the Thompson Sub-machine gun and Pre .357 Magnum.
post WWII the popular big ammo makers loaded them down to
9MM Luger approx. velocity.
as a primer, for yah.
Mac Attack
July 16, 2008, 08:18 PM
38 Super is a great round that is a joy to shoot. If you plan to shoot a Super you really need to consider reloading because factory ammo is expensive and hard to find. Also, the benefit of being able to taylor your rounds from hot +P to mild rounds is ideal.
July 16, 2008, 08:40 PM
Yup. It is a good round but could be better if loaded hotter like it used to be. You get better penetration and higher capacity in a 1911A1. I want one. I found a RIA 1911A1 in .38super stainless steel a couple of months ago for $399 brand new. I should have bought it.
July 16, 2008, 09:06 PM
FYI - the .38 Super has a slightly rebated rim and Colt pistols until about the 1980s weren't known for accuracy because Colt was trying to get it to headspace on the rebated rim with the extracgtor. WHen they switched to
chambering on the case mouth the accuracy problem was cured.
Starline Brass one of the best makers of brass cases only headstamp +P
on what they offer if SAAMI rates the cartridge at +P. these
.38 Special +P
Note Starline specifically states the 9MM +P and .38 Special +P brass
cases are exactly identical to standard 9MM/.38
Special, it is simply headstamped +P for case segregation so a handloader
will know it may have been loaded hot.
THe .45 ACP +P Starline brass has a thicker base and near walls as it goes toward the case mouth, and infact has 2 grains less capacity.
This means the same charge of powder in a +P case will have higher pressure. It IS different.
Any maker of brass that puts +P+ on a headstamp it has no standard by
SAAMI and could be at dangerous levels.
just my .02 worth of research.
July 16, 2008, 09:14 PM
The original Super load featured a 130 pointed FMJ at around 1300 FPS. Designed for high penetration it does that and most common "vests" are vulnerable.
Recent factory loadings are greatly reduced, likely due to the Colt 38 ACP pistols out there that will fire the Super cartridge and that's a bad thing as the Super is too hot for this gun. Current velocities run around 1050 making the Super something less than the 9mmP.
I like the Super and have two. You need to hand load for maximum performance. My favorite load is the 115 JHP at around 1400 FPS. Very close to 357 Magnum performance. This is warm but my guns seem OK with it. Probably no more pressure than the original 130 load produced.

I've got a Colt 1911 in 38 super, it's accurate, reliable, good to shoot.
So far, all I've shot is Fiocchi 130 FMJ 130 gr. One day I might try something else, but this ammo is only $17 and change new per 50. The brass is reloadable.
July 16, 2008, 09:56 PM
The .38 Super was supposedly popular in Mexico because they weren't allowed to own 'military caliber' pistols like the 9mm and .45 ACP. I don't know if that still holds true or not.
July 16, 2008, 10:22 PM
Just for my own curiousity, can a rimless .38 Super case be made using cut down and resized .223 brass?
A rebated rim, btw, is when the rim diameter is smaller than the case body diameter as in the .50 AE. The .406" .38 Super rim is slightly larger than the .384" case body.
July 17, 2008, 01:20 AM
Not to be the term police but the correct name is Super .38 not .38 Super.
Don't believe me then check your loading manual or barrel hood.
The Super .38 was developed in 1929 and based on the .38 Automatic.
They are externally identical and the cartridge was referred to as the Super .38 Automatic.
Externally the Super .38 and .38 Automatic are identical but the Super is loaded hotter.
The cartridge really comes into it's own on the loading bench.
July 17, 2008, 09:28 AM
The Super case is actually Semi-rimmed, meaning the rim is slightly larger than the case body. Rebated means the rim is slightly smaller than the case body.
July 17, 2008, 09:53 AM
I just purchased a RIA in 38 Super. With the proper load, it comes close to .357 Magnum specs in an autoloading handgun. Using a 124 gr HP moving at 1275 fps, there is minimal felt recoil, little muzzle flip & is very accurate. I think this is one cartridge that has gotten overlooked due to the 357 & needs some serious attenion as a carry & SD load.
July 17, 2008, 09:59 AM
The case is semi rimmed and Colt did try and head space off the semi rim until the late '80s if IRC. My new Commander has fine accuracy and head spaces off the case mouth.
The super is a higher pressure version of the old .38 ACP round. The lower powered factory loadings and +P stampings exist because someone, somewhere stuffed a super into an old Colt 1903 military and blew it up.
The you can trim .223 brass down, but the thicker web and case walls limited capacity somewhat. Rimless versions (.38 SuperComp) work, but are strictly roll your own. You can also get a 9x23 barrel and really up the horsepower.
I posted a review of my Colt Commander here (http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?p=4529519#post4529519) with some chronograph results. Most of the ball loads I've seen run right at 1200fps out of my 4.25" barrel - which isn't bad considering that is still 9mm+P at lower pressures.
July 17, 2008, 10:07 AM
The Super case is actually Semi-rimmed, meaning the rim is slightly larger than the case body. Rebated means the rim is slightly smaller than the case body.Yep.
Starline also makes "Super Comp (http://czcustom.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=32&products_id=94&osCsid=079cad4d26f433fa724c9ec850d1d809)" brass where the rim does not stick out. That is what I am shooting in my two Supers (A Colt and a Springfield.) I bought 100 rounds of Super Comp and 100 rounds of regular .38 Super brass to try first. The Super Comp worked great so I ordered 1000 of them. The idea is they should feed better from a mag than a semi rimmed round.
I shoot the Zero R161 (http://czcustom.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21_45&products_id=165&osCsid=079cad4d26f433fa724c9ec850d1d809) .38 Super 125 Gr JHP at just under 1200 FPS for my range load. It is accurate and very pleasent to shoot. You can hot rod it a little if you want to. It is very versatile and just as cheap as 9MM to shoot if you reload.
I really like to shoot my 2 Supers. You can't go wrong with one IMHO.
July 17, 2008, 11:32 AM
.38 super 1911s are big in Mexico, as civilians are forbidden to own weapons in military calibers (.45 acp).
July 17, 2008, 11:45 AM
I live in mexico and we can´t own the 38 super because it is referred as a "service pistol" we can only own a revolver as poweful as the 38 spl and in a semi auto as powerful as .380 ACP our gun laws sucks because they are obselete and were made very bad:cuss: but Im very happy that im recently found/buy a 38/44 outdoorsman in 95+ conditions so I can load the 38 spl hotter :neener:

Ah yes this has been contested many times on THR And you are semi Correct. I have seen guns with super 38 and I have seen others with 38 super. I wont say all but I will say every manufacturer I have seen (new today) say 38 super. I have seen reloading manuals say both also.

July 19, 2008, 09:19 AM
I like the Super .38 1911's. Fun guns to shoot and to carry. I have owned four, but now just have these two....both with original factory finish and ramped barrels.
RIA Super .38

NEW YORK - A new study offers more evidence that life expectancy for some U.S. women is falling, a disturbing trend that experts can't explain.
The latest research found that women younger than 76 are dying at higher rates than in previous years in nearly half of the nation's counties - many of them rural and in the South and West.
For men, life expectancy has held steady or improved in nearly all counties.
The study is the latest to spot this pattern, especially among disadvantaged white women. Some leading theories blame higher smoking rates, obesity, and less education, but several experts said they simply don't know why.

NORTH AUGUSTA Bringing a smile on someones face after a tragic event is nearly impossible. Especially when it comes at the cost of a child. However, the women of the Sewn Together group at Fairview Presbyterian Church, 1101 Carolina Ave in North Augusta, hope that they can do just that.
Last Tuesday, the group got together to make keepsake bags for University Hospital. The materials were donated by the hospital, and the bags are distributed to the parents who lose an infant to a miscarriage late in pregnancy; a stillborn; or lose the child shortly after birth.
They put the birth and the death certificates in it, along with a lock of hair if there is one, Margaret Shearouse, neighborhood group leader, said. They also try to put in any sort of little keepsake that they may have. We do it sort of like the Lydia Project as well, because we pray over these when we get finished for the families that will receive it. That way they know that there are people who care about them.
Shearouse said the hospital calls the group whenever they run out of bags, and unfortunately, it is more often than anyone would want it to be. However, every bag is prayed over by the group and the Rev. Dr. Robert Fuller, senior pastor of the church. Shearouse added that the group is an incredible group of women, and she started with them five years ago.
All I had planned to do was open the door and let them in, she said. However, they hooked me in. The fellowship gets us through a lot of things, as well. One of the very first projects that I got involved in was for a mission trip my husband and I went on. We take teams down to Honduras and Mexico, and our medical team needed scrubs embroidered. They taught me how to embroider the scrubs, and every medical trip that we take there is something that this group sews.
Shearouse recalled that there were clothes and blankets that the group has done, in addition to backpacks and pillowcases.
The North Augusta group is also currently looking for new members. They do not have to be from North Augusta or attend the church, Shearouse said, and skill level is not an issue. Project meetings, such as the keepsake bags, are the second Tuesday of every month at the churchs multipurpose room on the lower level of the Fellowship Building.
For more information on the Sewn Together group, call Fairview Presbyterian Church at 803-279-6441

Authorities said Santiago Pedroso, 71, was taken into custody Sept. 9 outside the U.S. Embassy in Manila on a charge of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
He was transported to Los Angeles, turned over Wednesday to FBI agents from Philadelphia, and arraigned Thursday on one count of murder in the shooting of Delores Alvarez, 41, at the Hathaway Inn.
At the time, the victim was waiting to be served dinner with a friend, Pedroso's estranged wife, Maria Gomez, 44.

The Internet is hurting 'Real Hip Hop'
Is there such a thing as real hip hop? I mean, hip hop has been mutating throughout its nearly 40 year run into what it is today. As someone who has watched these changes from the beginning I can assure you-yes, there is such a thing as real hip hop.
Not every type of music gets a title during the height of its cultural enlightenment. Hip hop's came in the 90's with the label of the "Golden Era." The Golden Era was a time in the late 80's-early 90's that firstly solidified that hip hop was not a fad as many thought. Secondly, it proved to be a viable source of income for artists as well as corporate entities. Finally, the Golden Era brought a defined sound to hip hop. Every coast had a discernable sound. An artist could flourish without a "hit" record. Unlike today, they were handing out record deals like hotcakes to anyone with talent. If you had a niche, you had a deal. An artist didn't have to be tough or hood. They could just be. If you liked sampled music with a grimey flow on top you could easily find something from the East coast. If you wanted to know about gang life with some funk behind it you went to the West. Later the South would find it's voice too. There was an equation to the sound of the golden era and everyone (mostly) was happy. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

Reports of 'flopping' Lady Gaga Summerfest show 'ridiculous,' says Live Nation exec
Reports of struggling ticket sales for Lady Gaga's upcoming tour--in particular her Summerfest headlining show June 26--have prompted a Live Nation executive to speak out to Billboard about the "ridiculous" claims.
"The run with Gaga over the last two tours has been incredibly successful, and this one is shaping up no differently," Arthur Fogel, chairman of the company's global touring division, producers of Gaga's forthcoming artRave: The ARTPOP Ball tour, told Billboard's Ray Waddell. Fogel added that the 29 North American shows currently on sale have grossed $26 million in ticket revenue, with 80 percent of all tickets for North America and Europe dates already sold. »Read Full Article(2)

Hi Chef Jacob,
My question is, have you seen a difference of adding salt with yeast at the beginning of a machine kneaded bread?
For better than forty years, I have added salt in the beginning of making a yeast bread in a machine kneaded bread to get the salt and yeast spread out through the dough.
In 2007-2008, I did a test of salt and yeast doing a bag test on a plastic bottle using a condom to look for CO2 pressure. One bottle had salt and the other did not not. The salt added seemed to create a little better pressure than without salt but this was only one test.

OUT NOW on Beatport
Oversized Records was established at he end of 2008, and quickly became one of the most popular labels of the dj scene in Hungary. The key of the succes is that the djs, producers and the staff working together are all dedicated their life to music, and pay very much attention to each of their tracks and releases. During this 1 year we developed a nice group of friends who get our promos. Several well known member of this scene valued positively our work, and this what makes us continue on and on! Hernan Cattaneo, The Timewriter, Terry Lee Brown Jr, Chloe Harris, Eelke Kleijn, Brothers' Vibe, Andy Newland and others gave very good feedback about many of our releases and played our tracks as well!
Our label is based out of Hungary and we are currently available on stores such as: Beatport, iTunes, Junodownload, Audiojelly, etc.. Our content is delivered to stores worldwide by a popular distributor that currently works with hundreds of labels. In addition to our established content delivery methods, we have a marketing plan that we use to promote our releases.
Many labels in the digital world believe that volume is the way to go. We do not think like this.
Our label has a solid A&R department setup to determine which songs and releases are worth while to the label. While the word "department" is daunting, a simple method of establishing quality control is the basis for a solid A&R aspect of the label. Additionally, it is important for us to state our vision and plan to artists interested in releasing music via the label. Do not just shun people away because we do not like their music. We are constructive to artists and communicate what you do not like so an artist can learn and deliver quality content for us in the future.

A way to protect mother and child
The column "Why Roe is the keystone of rights" (Sunday) brought up many good points for people of conscience to consider. Questions about prenatal care, early-childhood development, and the need to provide support for pregnant women and newborns all need to be raised. I was reminded of different questions raised by the late Gov. Robert P. Casey, in his 1996 autobiography, Fighting for Life, which tells the story of the double transplant he underwent, as well as his advocacy for the unborn. This passage is from his book:
"We can talk on and on about the problems facing children: abusive parents, malnourishment, neglect. But almost always these social ills are just signs of a deeper malady. I would even say that in our culture today there is a callousness, a meanness toward the child - a violent streak slowly spreading out across society. Let me say it directly: Abortion is the ultimate violence. We worry about the social problem of violence. We read of abandoned children, abused children, children molested or killed, children themselves committing acts of violence. Where did this spirit come from? How has life come to seem so cheap? I believe it's not only possible, it's inevitable. If a child in the womb, the most innocent thing on earth, is not safe - then who is? If as a nation we don't revere that child, that innocence, what will make us revere any life?"

Erie police find gun during investigation into disturbance
Erie police said they found a gun and cited a 22-year-old man for disorderly conduct while investigating a disturbance on the city's west side on Sunday night.
Police were called to the 200 block of West 16th Street shortly before 6:30 p.m. Sunday after receiving a report of a man chasing another man while one of them had a gun. Officers who responded encountered a group of people and learned that there was some type of altercation between family members, police said Monday.
Officers found a 9 mm Glock handgun loaded with 13 rounds in a grassy area, police said.
