Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 126.96.36.199

While this may seem like a far-fetched idea to some of us, the current Anti-Trust case makes me think twice about things like this.
If the case were settled along the lines that the dissenting States want, the resulting eviscerated Windows OS might be of such low value that it would be turned into a give-away.
Can you immagine 500 million CDs being distributed like AOL CDs?
Would Linux survive if a free Open Source Windows was delivered?
Would Bill Gates be welcomed into the Open Source communiity and become a cult hero?
Would all our ire fall on Sun Solaris and Java that remains outside both the Open Source and Standards movements?
Microsoft will be:
1) restrained from retaliating against partners for using non-Microsoft products.
2) required to disclose some of Window's blueprints so software developers can make compatible products.
3) make it easier for consumers to remove extra Windows features.
It will NOT stop Solaris from becoming a niche OS like Apple.
It will NOT force Java to take part in the standards movement.
It will NOT force Oracle to become Open Source.
It will NOT cause the rebirth of Wordperfect or Lotus 1-2-3.
But getting it over and done with just might get the software market focused on innovation rather than litigation.
>Would Bill Gates be welcomed into the Open Source community and become a cult hero?
I agree with Brett, MS will never go open source.
On the note of Solaris and Java...
Solaris is "quasi-open-source". If you sign some unfriendly contracts, you can get access to the source code. Of course, you won't get to see the source for CDE or most of OpenWindows (like the display-postscript code or the Creator video drivers).
Java, on-the-other-hand, is its own standard. Sun has no interest in allowing clones to the java API exist, so they are going to produce their own "standards" and you must abide by them.
There really isn't a need for a non-Sun java clone anyway. Perl coupled with Tk can do some interesting things. The only problem is that no web browser executes perl/tk code directly.
By that same standard Windows is "quasi-open-source" too. Remember important parts of the Windows code are made available to Universities.
winsor says> Java, on-the-other-hand, is its own standard.
That's double speak. It is an industry standard or it is Sun's OWN code. Sun has withdrawn Java from the standards group.
I think it is fair to say that Sun, Oracle and Microsoft are all NOT Open Source companies.
Would you define "VA Software" as an open-source company? Most would, considering that they sponsor sourceforge.net wholeheartedly and have their own flavor of linux that they effectively give away (source and all). Have you asked them for the software engine that powers sourceforge.net? You may be in for a bit of a surprise, they won't even give you binaries for free.
Hint: Almost all so-called "Open-Source Companies" have software for which they will not divulge the source-code. The label "Open-Source Company" is not a binary attribute.

In most cities, parking facilities do not trigger violence. But in Jerusalem, police were gearing up yesterday for possible new clashes in the war between religious and secular Jews over parking on the Jewish sabbath. Hardline rabbis ordered a protest last month in which thousands of ultra-orthodox men tried to storm a municipality-owned garage, adjacent to City Hall, after it opened for the first time on the sabbath at the orders of the city's new secular Mayor, Nir Barkat.
In scenes reminiscent of the first Palestinian uprising, Jewish demonstrators hurled rocks and bottles and screamed "Nazis" at police before they were pushed back to the nearby ultra-orthodox suburb of Mea Shearim.
Yesterday, ultra-orthodox leaders declined to call off prayer protests planned for this evening despite Mr Barkat's move to lessen the perceived offence by opening a substitute site further from their homes.
The clash over the sabbath reflects a longstanding battle between secular and religious Jews over what it means for Israel to be a Jewish state. But it also revolves around power-plays between hardliners and moderates among the ultra-orthodox.
Matters are coming to a head because of Mr Barkat's efforts to jump start the economy of the city, where a religious minority has traditionally wielded clout. Boosting tourism is key to his economic agenda and to achieve that, he needs to open a garage on the sabbath near the Palestinian Old City.
Ultra-orthodox hardliners believe even one garage can spoil the sanctity of the sabbath, a day on which it is prohibited to drive or engage in any work. "We are talking about the character of Jerusalem," said Shmuel Feffenheim, from the Eda Haredit group that has led the protests. "We do not accept that everyone be concerned just with his own territory. The city has a sanctity."
Their opponents stress the issue is not just parking but personal freedom. "I don't force them into a car on Saturdays and they have no right to dictate to us how we live," says the Meretz party city councillor Laura Wharton.
Secular leaders said they would proceed with a demonstration today to strengthen Mr Barkat's resolve against "religious coercion". Ms Wharton said: "I think we are finally beginning to see the results of having a Mayor with a secular world view. I hope this is the beginning of a turnaround."

Many were surprised when Vivienne Westwood announced her Spring muse, Pamela Anderson. But really, Westwood strikes me as a fly-by-the-seat-of-her-pants girl so I wasn't shocked — I was curious. You may recall Pamela was a muse for photographer David LaChapelle for a while, so we've seen her in quirky fashion situations. Shot by Juergen Teller in LA, the ads are a mess of bright light, Vivenne herself, and disorientation at random spots like the laundry mat and the middle of the street. The clothes are a bit difficult to focus on, but Pamela is definitely doing her thing for the camera. I quite like the beach background shot and Pamela and Vivenne are a fun duo. Are you feeling the fun in the sun?

the ad is too messy too busy i got lost that i can't notice the clothes
i don't know maybe its just me but i think that Pam always has a very scary expression on her face she freaks me out
I can see what VW was doing here. I like these.
this is a hot mess! yikes! very 80s big haired rocker and I swear the lady in the back is wearing Cher's outfit from "If I could turn back time" video
No amount of plastic surgery can reverse what she's done to herself. Good example of how important spf is.Poor girl.
Something is so...just off. She's never been that attractive (to be, at least), and now that she's older and just trying way too hard, something just seems wrong.
I love Vivienne Westwood, but I picked other b/c "hell nooo", wasn't an option!
Somethin' ain't right! - The ad has too much going on. Pam looks aged in a bad way. Seems there is no graceful for her unfortunately. Too busy, too much makeup - just too much.
Definitely suits Westwood's aesthetic. As terrible as it may seem, I think it works... only for Westwood though.
Pam looks like an old hag. This is just so wrong! Her face just looks beyond awful.
Pam looks terrible, what happened to her face!!! She used to be... pretty.
She looks scary these days.
I was wondering how long it would take before Pamela started resembling on the outside what she appears to be on the inside. She looks like she's from the land of the living dead. Kind of a scary, wornout, leathery zombie, woman.
2 words: hot mess
Love Vivienne's ability to stand out, but goddamn Pamela is tacky. Ther's a thin line between tacky and crazy fun...
Ha leave it to Vivienne to cause some controversy! Love her!
Its so wrong, its right. And it draws a lot of attention, which is what advertising is all about. I actually really like it...
Hideous and trashy. HATE.
Eeek, Pam's face!
Ew, hot trailer mess!
I love vivienne westwood but pamela not so much.
Vivienne Westwood is all about over the top ridiculousness. I think it's brilliant!
Pamela looks so scary. Terrible ad!
Why? What was Vivenne thinking?

The most abnormal values in each column are present in bold and italic text. EGDT = early goal-directed therapy; LC = lactate clearance; Scvo2 = central venous oxygen saturation.
Only 98 had lactate measured.
Financial/nonfinancial disclosures: The author has reported to CHEST the following conflicts of interest: Dr Jones has received funding from the National Institutes of Health to study lactate clearance in sepsis resuscitation. Dr Jones has never been assigned patents, received patent royalties, honoraria, consulting fees, or other monetary or nonmonetary payments at any time related to the use of lactate or lactate clearance.
Reproduction of this article is prohibited without written permission from the American College of Chest Physicians (http://www.chestpubs.org/site/misc/reprints.xhtml).
In their counterpoint, Dr Rivers and colleagues1 present the theoretical view that patients with septic shock present in very distinct "hemodynamic phases" and that Jones et al2 enrolled patients in a different phase of septic shock than did Rivers et al.3 According to their theory, decreased central venous oxygen saturation (Scvo2) always precedes the appearance of lactate—a concept not observed in my clinical practice. Clinicians who routinely care for the critically ill encounter patients with elevated lactate and normal Scvo2. Furthermore, as shown in Table 1,2-10 the hemodynamic patterns of the subjects enrolled by Rivers et al3 are markedly different from any other reported populations of patients with septic shock treated with quantitative resuscitation. The study by Rivers et al3 patients had much higher lactate, much lower Scvo2, and much higher mortality than described elsewhere. Possible explanations for this discrepancy may include that patients with septic shock in Detroit between 1997 and 2000 were markedly different than any other septic shock population reported in the world's literature and/or that systematic selection bias was a significant problem in the their study. In such a scenario, their results have questionable external validity. Supporting either of these assertions is the fact that mortality in the control group of the Rivers et al3 study was 20% higher than any septic shock mortality reported in the recent literature, leaving one to question exactly what care they received.3 Little evidence supports the contention that Jones et al2 enrolled patients in a different phase of septic shock than did Rivers et al,3 because the population enrolled by Jones et al2 used inclusion criteria identical to the Rivers et al3 study. Furthermore, the population in the Jones et al3 study appears to be an accurate contemporaneous population from three US EDs; it has characteristics, including mortality rates, nearly identical to those described from other studies (Table 1).

Love this tea for its great taste. I usually leave the teabag in my cup then keep adding hot water for additional cups. I can drink it all day. Great mild tea with a hint of lemon/lime. Very refreshing. Haven`t noticed any slimming effects yet though. Would buy again for the taste though (hence the five stars)

VANCOUVER (AP) Boston forward Patrice Bergeron(FSY) wasn't surprised how quickly the Stanley Cup Final turned nasty, but he was shocked to feel Canucks counterpart Alex Burrows(FSY) chomp down on the tip of his finger.
Burrows denied it, but could still face discipline from the NHL after replays appeared to show him bite Bergeron's finger during a melee at the end of the first period of Vancouver's 1-0 victory in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday night.
"I don't mind rough play and scrums at the end, as long as it's just pushing and shoving and all that," Bergeron said. "But biting? I mean come on."
GAME 1: Torres' late goal lifts Canucks
VIDEO: See incident on YouTube
In a game with an unexpected amount of edge between teams that meet once a season, Burrows and Bergeron were in the middle of a big scrum behind the Boston net at the end of the first period. That's when Bergeron says Burrows bit down as he reached over a linesman to put his glove in Burrows' face.
"Oh yeah, he did. He cut me a little bit on my finger," said Bergeron, whose right index finger was wrapped in a small bandage. "But I'm not going to be here complaining about it. I'll let the league do their job, but he sure did."
Bergeron, who played mostly against the Canucks' top line, went straight to the referees after holding up his injured finger.
"They didn't see it," Bergeron said. "We were speaking French, me and (Burrows), and I told him, 'Why did you do that?' That linesmen speaks French, and his explanation was he said that I put my finger in his mouth and he had to do it. I'll leave it at that, but I'm sure the league is going to look at it."
Burrows, who received a double minor for roughing — Bergeron only got one minor penalty for roughing — denied biting Bergeron.
Cast Your Vote
"I don't think so," Burrows said. "He had his fingers in my mouth, but I don't think I bit him. He put his hand up and put it in my face and his fingers in my mouth and that's what happened."
Asked if he expected to be suspended, Burrows glared and said, "next question."
The Canucks also lost defenseman Dan Hamhuis(FSY) with an apparent leg injury early in the second period. Vancouver coach Alain Vigneault said after the game Hamhuis is day-to-day, but didn't give specifics of the injury.
The NHL's history on biting incidents includes former Canucks agitator Jarkko Ruutu(FSY), then with Ottawa, being suspended for two games for clamping down on Buffalo's Andrew Peters (FSY) in January 2009.
Bruins forward Marc Savard(FSY), who isn't playing in this series because of a concussion, also got one game after biting Toronto forward Darcy Tucker (FSY) in 2003, but Philadelphia's Scott Hartnell (FSY) escaped a suspension early last season because of lack of evidence on an alleged bite of Pittsburgh defenseman Kris Letang(FSY) after both players fell to the ice in a scrum.
"If that's the case, it's a classless move," Boston coach Claude Julien said. "Not something players should be doing at this level anyway."

Burrows, once known as a yappy agitator, has refined his role on the top line with Daniel and Henrik Sedin(FSY), increasing his scoring and cutting down on his penalty minutes. He had seven goals and 14 points in the playoffs — fourth on the Canucks in scoring — and only six penalty minutes going into Game 1.
"We were battling, and obviously had a little exchange there," Burrows said. "I'm not going to say too much about it. Obviously, I got four minutes on the play and we killed it off."
Mike Murphy(FSY), the NHL's Senior Vice President of Hockey Operations, will handle any supplemental discipline because Colin Campbell, who before the game resigned his position as chief disciplinarian for next season, doesn't deal with any Bruins games because his son, Gregory Campbell(FSY), plays for Boston.
Hamhuis left four minutes into the second period after throwing a low hit that sent Boston forward Milan Lucic(FSY) head over heels in the air. Hamhuis dropped immediately to the ice after appearing to take Lucic's knee in the midsection, and took a couple of shots from Bruins forward David Krejci (FSY), who was penalized for cross-checking, as a scrum broke out around him.
Hamhuis, who anchors Vancouver's shutdown pairing with Kevin Bieksa(FSY), was hunched over as he skated to the bench, and hobbled to the locker room after crawling over the bench. Hamhuis has a goal and five assists and is plus-5 while averaging almost 26 minutes of ice time — most against the opposition's top forwards — during Vancouver's first run to the Cup Final in 17 years.
"Going down to five D midway through the second, with the intensity that was out there, was obviously taxing on our group," Vigneault said. "I thought the five guys that handled the workload did a real good job of sharing the time. I thought our best period was our third period. We were down to five D at that time."
As for the nastiness, Vigneault wasn't surprised.
"With what's at stake, I expect both teams to want it real bad," he said.

USD/CHF: buy target - 1.0300
By: Dmitriy Chernovolov
- USD/CHF reached buy target 1.0200
- Next buy target - 1.0300
USD/CHF continues to rise – after the pair earlier broke above the pivotal resistance level 1.0200, which has been reversing the price in the last few days and which was set as the buy target in our previous forecast for this pair. The breakout of this resistance level is likely to strengthen the bullish pressure on this currency pair in the coming trading sessions.
USD/CHF is expected to rise further in the active impulse minor waves (iii) and 3 (which belong to the strong intermediate impulse wave (3) from the start of May) toward the next buy target at the next resistance level 1.0300. Buy stop-loss can be placed at the distance of half the daily ATR (Average True Range) below the support level 1.0200.

I've been using grey mullet for years and even used to fish for them as a kid in West Bay harbour in Dorset. When grey mullet have been in the sea, as opposed to up a muddy river, they taste great – certainly on a par with bass. Over the years, I've tweaked their name a little for menu purposes as they are more silver than grey and the word silver is so much more appealing than grey. Try to buy larger fish as you will get a better, thicker fillet.
4 fillets of grey mullet weighing about 180-200g each
A couple of good knobs of butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the green split-pea sauce
80g green split peas, soaked in cold water for 2 hours
4 shallots, peeled, halved and finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed
1tsp cumin seeds, chopped
1 small red chilli, finely chopped
1tbsp olive oil plus a couple of extra tablespoons or so
200ml vegetable stock
2tbsp chopped coriander
First make the green split-pea sauce: simmer the split peas in lightly salted water for about 15-20 minutes until they still have just a little bite. Meanwhile, gently cook the shallots, garlic, cumin and chilli in the butter for 2-3 minutes until soft. Drain the split peas and add to the shallots with the stock, season and simmer on a medium heat until the liquid has nearly all evaporated, the peas are tender and they are a spooning consistency. Stir in the coriander and adjust the consistency with some extra olive oil if necessary.
Season the grey mullet fillets, heat the butter in a frying pan until it's beginning to foam and cook the fillets, skin-side down first for 2-3 minutes on each side. Spoon the peas on to serving plates and place the mullet on top.

In response to 2008's failure on Wall Street, President Obama recently signed a bill that will result in the largest overhaul of financial reform since the Great Depression. Entitled, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, this legislation will set new restrictions on banks, stopping them from making risky investments with consumer dollars, and in turn becoming "too big to fail."
This legislation comes at a time when consumers are skeptical of Wall Street and government in general. By passing the bill, the U.S. government is making a statement that they will no longer allow the banking industry to make faulty investments with consumers' hard earned money and hopefully restoring trust. But what does this legislation really mean for small businesses?
With significant changes and restrictions on the credit card industry, some believe that this bill may hurt small businesses. Since most financial institutions' capital will drop with new investment restrictions, many will have much less money to lend, making it harder for entrepreneurs and small business to get the funding they need to succeed.
While it is no secret that this new legislation will result in fewer business loans, at least we can count on the loans being given to sensible, responsible business owners that will no doubt equate in successful ventures. After all, that is the responsibility of a bank. At any rate, it is important for all business owners, big and small, to understand what this new reform entails, and what it means for your business.
We found a great article which outlines the new reform well. Click here to check it out. (http://bit.ly/dBebPj)

3 Days in Helsinki
Guide to Helsinki Outdoors
Museum Guide for Helsinki
Roskapankki is known for its cheap beer and unique Kallio atmosphere - something not all visitors necessarily appreciate. You will encounter people from all walks of life.
Beer is cheap, there's lots of it as well as people. There may not always be room to sit but that's ok. In the summer the terrace is great - the sun shines all day! Really popular and legendary place.
Very cheap beer and nice people. Service was also very good. We ordered some A-beer and we got A-beer. Toilets worked well.
quite a insitution in helsinki , its know for offering the cheapest beer in town. regular kallio crowd there
Our livingroom: good people, stunning atmosphere, rock n' roll and metal people, cheap beer, nice terrace, real Helsinki!!!
A legendary bar, an authentic "Kallio bar" which means it's definitely not nice and clean but totally worth to visit - for someone. If you prefer chic and posh, this isn´t your place. For serious party animals who want to see rough side of Helsinki. Anyhow it's quite safe place, you hardly find dangerous bars / pubs in Helsinki, our...
Beers are really cheap (the number III is 2.80, the Karhu "A" grade is EUR 3). They serve a wide range of really excellent pizzas (baked in a real charcoal oven) all at EUR 5.50. As its the hang out for Helsinki's R&R and aging metal fans it might not be for everybody, but trust me - the people there...
This classic pub has been standing in middle of Kallio for decades and there is a reason for that: very colourful people and bohemian athmosphere combined with cheap beer. I´ve never had the encourage to order anything to eat because the place looks... well how should I say.... dirty.
Beer 2,80 eur. Among the cheapest pubs in Helsinki. Interesting people. I didn't try the food, but I guess it's not exactly gourmet. Nuff said.

Saturday 31st July 2010 will see the return of Field Day to London's leafy green corner of Victoria Park. Embarking on their fourth annual outing, Field Day have an incredible line up of bands and DJs plus the Village Mentatlity returns, the off-the-wall Village Green area within the festival that supplies the masses with some bucolic treats away from the hubbub of the main festival. Inspired by summer sports days and country fetes - Field Day's very own village green will host stalls and activities throughout the daytime, ranging from sack-racing, to whack-the-rat, Bowling for Bacon, you can try your luck on the tombola, crack a few nuts on the coconut shy - or just sit on some hay bales and stuff your face with homemade cake...
Starting with a bang, Field Day are proud to announce that Grammy award winning Gallic indie-pop sensations Phoenix will be headlining 2010's event. With their fourth album ' Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix ' gathering accolades left right and centre, whilst continuing to bowl over their fans and win them a whole new audience of admirers, the band's irresistible blend of strutting disco and blissful euphoric pop all topped off with their effortless insouciant indie vibe will be the perfect end to what promises to be Field Day's most amazing event yet.
Other acts to be unveiled include Amiina, the spellbinding Icelandic female four-piece who have graced the albums and shows of Sigur Ros, who will be showcasing their enchanting take on minimalist and contemporary classical music. Beth Jeans Houghton will be performing her experimental folk with keyboards, xylophones and a looped choir of herself and will be joined on stage by her band the Hooves Of Destiny. Caribou, whose amazing new album ' Swim' (out in April) will be taking the dynamic interplay between visuals, electronics and live sound to the next level with a set of brightly textured, rapturous gems that gleam with astonishing production.
Chilly Gonzales, the world record holder for the world's longest solo performance, will be tickling the ivories in his own inimitable style and partaking in some mass audience participation. Corsano And Flowers featuring Mick Flower ( Vibracathedral Orchestra, Sunroof, Magik Markers, Michael Flower Band) and Chris Corsano most well know for his incredible percussion work with Bjork, will be revelling in their virtuoso collaboration, drawing on influences from primitive blues, La Monte Young and John Cale. Strains of Kate Bush or Siouxie and the Banshees can be heard in the echoing, eerie vocals of Esben And The Witch who present the dynamics of post-rock in an bewitching, electronic, pop context. The Brighton three piece's sound has also drawn comparisons with PJ Harvey, Portishead, Bjork, Radiohead and Cocteau Twins but present a dark, haunting music that is very much of their own. Gold Panda started writing beats and collaborating a few years ago, working with the likes of Infinite Livez and Shuttle (both Ninja Tune) as well as creating his own beautiful, glitchy electronica, referencing a multitude of influences and born out of samples constructed partly from charity shop vinyl and VHS. This BBCs "sound of 2010" and MTV-dubbed "remix king" created raved-about reworkings for the likes of Telepathe, Bloc Party, Simian Mobile Disco and Health.
Hypnotic Brass Ensemble's insanely catchy and upbeat instrumental hip-hop is sure to get your feet working as the 9-piece work up a frenzied sweat. Born in Chicago, with Phil Cohran (Sun Ra Arkestra) as their dad, the 8 brothers began their career as street musicians, busking on the sidewalks before they laid anything down on tape. Their jazz roots are evident, but jazz from 100 years ago, solid, dancefloor music which differs from the avant-garde offerings of their father's community, but is as individual as anything you'll ever hear. The group feature on the new Gorillaz album ' Plastic Beach' alongside Lou Reed, Bobby Womack, Mos Def and more.

She found it impossibly hard to let go.
To unclench her fingers, and release the pale string in her hands, setting the balloon free.
But slowly, she pried her own hand open with sheer will power, and the scarlet balloon wavered in the sea breeze, floating out to the ocean, never known but never forgotten, either.
It had a forever to go, and she wished it good luck.

Watches for sale
Bell & Ross Professional Type Demineur
The B&R Type Demineur, often referred to as the "Bomb Squad" watch, was introduced in 1996. The French Civil Defense wanted to adopt a watch for use by their bomb disposal specialists and solicited suitable designs from watch manufacturers that met the operational specifications. They chose to partner with Bell & Ross and the resulting watch was the Demineur Type. The antimagnetic/non-magnetic brushed stainless steel case is 39.5mm in diameter and 11.2mm thick. Rotating bezel with specific interval delineations. Anti-reflecting sapphire crystal. Flat black dial and hands. Stainless steel bracelet with all links [click here] [click here].

ASDIC Stopwatch
A significant contribution to the demise of the German U-boats was the development of what we today call SONAR (SOund NAvigation and Ranging). Late in WWI it was called ASDIC and it was the most important military innovation in the war. Using sound waves to detect and track submarines by the Anti Submarine Division was top secret stuff at the time. Churchill made a slip in the House of Commons when he mentioned ASD's (pronounced ASDics) work. So, to cover the slip, the name was quickly contrived to become Allied Submarine Detection Investigation Committee or sometimes Anti-submarine Detection Investigation Committee although no such committees actually existed.
At any rate, this stopwatch could be used to determine the range to target. Sound passes through seawater at the speed of approximately 1,650 yards per second (depending on temperature, among other things). One started the timer on hearing the "ping". The sound wave travels out, strikes the target and is reflected back. The stopwatch is stopped when the return "ping" is heard and the distance to target can be read from the scale. The timer is calibrated to one-half the speed of sound in seawater (one second on the dial shows a distance of approximately 830 yards) since the sound wave goes to the target and back, twice the distance to the target. Chrome base-metal case 51mm in diameter. A real piece of military history, fully marked [click here], working and in mint condition.

1950's Smiths DeLuxe Pilot's watch
These watches look more like the Mk XI's than the later Smiths 6b watches with which we are all familiar. It is believed that fewer than a thousand of these were produced for the British armed forces! The stainless steel case is 36mm in diameter and the original radium dial and hands were MOD replaced with tritium versions. The back [click here] is marked 1955. The 17-jewel movement [click here] [click here] has a frosted gilt finish. Comes with a 18mm gray NATO strap. A rare collectible piece!

Omega 6b 1956 RAF Pilot/Navigator's Watch
In 1956, the British Ministry of Defense modified existing stocks of the war-time Omega pilot/navigator wristwatches. The 1943 Omegas had workhorse, chronometer-rated 30t2 SC movements but in inexpensive, snap-back plated alloy cases. These excellent movements were fitted with new dials and stunning stainless steel, screw-back Dennison cases in the style of the Mk11. Most 1956 Omegas have black dials and the distinctive spade hands coated with luminous material. Some, like this current example, had white dials with beautiful blued-steel hands [click here]. The 36mm screw-back case is fully marked [click here]. Original crown and crystal. Comes with a NATO issue strap. The movement has been serviced and runs great. Can be a distinctive every-day watch!

USAAC Longines -Wittnauer Weems 1940 issue A-11
One of the earliest watches made for issue to pilots and navigators. It was manufactured to the original MIL-27834 specification. (WWII USAAF A-ll watches were made to revised specs starting in 1943 -- MIL-27834B). The USAAC Type A-11 was approved for issue on August 8, 1937.
The Weems Patent second setting watch allowed the wearer to synchronize their timepiece to a correct time source. This was accomplished via the locking 60-minute bezel. To set the watch to the exact second of GCT (Greenwich Civil Time), the seconds bezel was rotated, keeping the 60-second graduation continuously under the sweep second hand. When the Greenwich radio time "tick" or signal which breaks at the 59th second and resumes on the 60th second was heard, the turning of the bezel was stopped. The watch then indicated the exact second of GCT (from Whitney's Military Timepieces).
Lieutenant Commander Phillip Van Horn Weems taught Aerial Navigation at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. His system of navigation was used not only by the military but also by Charles Lindbergh, Admiral Richard Byrd and many other noted flyers and explorers.
This Longines USAAC watch has full military markings [click here] -- even the movement is marked [click here]. Unmarked Longines Weems watches that one typically finds were sold for civilian use. The contract date on the back is 1940. Another view [click here].
The Longines Weems is a small watch by today's standards.The case is 27.5 mm in diameter and made of plated base metal. Blued steel hands. The strap is a NOS WWII vintage green canvas issue strap -- almost as rare as the watch [click here]. The 10L movement with gold jewel settings has been fully serviced and keeps good time [click here]. The overall condition is excellent.

Longines "Greenlander"
The Longines WWW (wrist watch waterproof) is probably the most famous of the British military watches. It derives its name from the often-cited belief that it was developed for the British North Greenland Expedition of 1952-54. But there is some doubt that this is true. But the Longines was a rugged watch and no doubt up to the task. It was one of the few WWW's that had a stainless steel case [click here] [click here]. The cathedral hands and dial are beautiful. At 38mm it is the largest of the WWW's and very wearable. Fully marked back [click here]. The numbers on the case back match the number on the back of the lug. The 15-jewel movement is a refined version of the 12.68Z and fitted with a shock resistance system [click here]. The movement winds smoothly and runs strong but service history is unknown. Like the Longines D-Day "tuna can" watch, the crystal is installed through the back of the case and a retaining ring screws in, pressing the flanged crystal into a gasket. Cool! Comes with a NATO style band. All original and correct. As nice an example as you will find!

IWC Pilot Mark XII Stainless Steel Automatic Ref: 3241
One of the more popular pilot watches, the IWC Mark XII is the modern, automatic version of the classic RAF pilot's watch, the Mk11 in mint condition. The stainless steel brushed screw-back case measures 36mm in diameter. Water resistant to 30 meters with an iron core to provide an anti-magnetic screen. It has a signed screw down crown and domed sapphire crystal [click here]. The matte black dial has Arabic numerals and quickset date at three. The tritium markers and hands show a beautiful patina. This watch comes with the very comfortable RIOS1931 buffalo strap with signed IWC buckle [click here]. Other views: [click here] [click here] [click here].
The IWC Mark XII movement is based on the Jaeger LeCoultre 889/2 with 36 jewels with a vibrating speed of 28,800 vph -- one of the finest automatics manufactured even by today's standards and arguably one of the highest quality watches IWC ever made. Originally retailed for $6,000.
Recently overhauled by Superior Watch, the official IWC factory service center and comes with their 1-year warranty. Includes the IWC box [click here] and OD issue strap [click here]. Superb watch with that vintage military look!

Functions include analog and digital time; alarm; stopwatch and date. Comes with the black nylon NATO strap shown, issue tin and instructions. Very light wear. Perfect everyday watch and very collectable.

IWC MKII Dust Cover
Another part that's impossible to find -- the dust cover for the IWC Mk II British RAF watch. These are made of soft iron to supress magnetic fields and consequently rusted if water entered the case. In excellent confition.

USMC Watchstrap by RANGER-TENNERE
These nylon watch straps are often seen on the Elgin and Hamilton canteen watches since the canvas straps tended to rot rather quickly. Also used in jungle fighting for the same reason. The strap fits the 16mm lugs of the WWII-era watches perfectly [click here]. I have several, new in their original packaging. Stainless steel buckle [click here]. Color is cordovan [click here]. Rarely see these for sale.

Hamilton US Army Issue
The MIL-W-46374 specification for watches provided for a basic, inexpensive, non-maintainable, non-hacking, general purpose timepiece. When the "D' revision came out it completely changed the nature and scope of the MIL-W-46374 spec.
This is a Hamilton US Army watch marked MIL-W-46374D and only issued in 1988. It's among the last wristwatches Hamilton produced for the military. It's a manual wind wristwatch, 33mm x 41mm to lug tips, with a matte stainless steel screw back case [click here]. Original black 24 hour dial with radioactive and H3 symbols. The movement (unlike the 7-jewel movements in the common "B" watches) is a hacking, high-quality 17-jewel ETA cal 2801-1 with precision ETACHRON regulator, and a quick-train at 28,000 VPH (4 Hz). [click here] (stock photo). Probably the best quality modern US issue watch. The movement has been completely serviced and it comes with a genuine OD issue strap. Great everyday watch and very collectable.

RAF Seiko Chronograph 7A28-7120 (Gen 1)
These Seiko chronographs were issued to RAF pilots and navigators in the 80's through the 90's and replaced the Valjoux 7733-based stem-wound chronographs. The 7A28 was the very first quartz chronograph with an all-analog dial. This legendary movement has 15 jewels and all metal gears-- no plastic parts. The matte stainless-steel case is 38mm in diameter and 10mm thick. Fully marked on the back [click here]. Fixed bars. Over 11,000 were issued between 1984 and 1990.
A separate stepper motor is provided for each indicating function, and the button at 10 o'clock temporarily stops the chronograph hands' motion as actual timing continues, providing a "split-second" function. While the main chrono-seconds hand moves with the press of the button at 2 o'clock at the typical quartz once/second, the hand within the subdial at 3 o'clock races along at a most entertaining 20 steps per second, (although it is labeled "1/10s"). The register at 9 records the elapsed time up to 30 minutes. Constant seconds are indicated at the 6 o'clock register.
The movement has recently been serviced by Seiko and a one-year warranty is provided by them. Light wear on the case as you would expect with an issue piece. Comes with the mil-issue strap shown [click here] and instructions! One of my very favorite military watches!

WWII Japanese Army issue watch by Seiko
Japanese military watches are the most difficult to find in good condition (and sometimes in ANY condition!) because so many did not survive the war. Those that did typically came home with servicemen. This example was made by Seiko and has a Seikosha-signed movement that winds smoothly and runs well [click here]. It's a double-cased watch, an attempt to protect the watch from the elements [click here] and tiny by today's standards at 31mm [click here]. The case is chrome-plated base metal with a stainless steel back [click here]. Fixed lugs. Dial signed "Special Seiko" with military time in red. Nicely aged and (except for the front crystal that looks modern) original and correct. Includes an black leather unworn, strap that's correct for this watch [click here]. Some light oxidation on the strap hardware. A piece that every mil watch collection should have.

WWII Japanese issue watch by Longines
Longines high-grade navigational chronograph features a 50mm nickel case with inner dust cover and porcelain dial. Some very fine cracks in the porcelain. The 17-jewel signed Longines movement is stunning [click here]. The Kanji markings on the back [click here] identify it as a luminous watch and includes a serial number 4301. The watch is running strong and all chronograph functions work properly. It originally came from the estate of a WWII veteran. Includes a glass dome display. A rare and beautiful watch.

1983 Hamilton General Purpose Issue Watch NIB
This Hamilton was made to the MIL-W-46374 specification and has a 7-jewel ETA hand-wound movement. It's dated July 1983 on the back [click here]. These watches were designed to be disposable and the back is marked "Dispose Rad Waste." Matte 32mm stainless steel case [click here]. This example is unworn and with the original issue box. Just the way it was delivered to the US Army. Over 30 years old! Very collectable.

WWII Omega Hydrographic Service Pilot's Watch
Rare Omega HS8 marked Fleet Air Arm pilot's watch [click here]. These were almost identical to the RAF version (6B). According to Wesolowski's Military Timepieces, the earlier models had spring bars and a plated brass case while after 1942, to save money, they used the same alloy case and fixed bars as the 6B. This watch is the later version. Very clean 16-jewel movement [click here] runs good. The dial has a maroon, pebbly look when viewed up close. Originally purchased from FinerTimes. With a nice pigskin strap.

Stocker & Yale U.S. Army Issue Watch
This SandY model 590 is genuine military issue, made to military spec MIL-W-46374F Type 3 [click here]. It features a Ronda Swiss-made jeweled quartz movement with quick change date and hacking feature. The39x39 mm black case is made of an extremely durable nylon/fiberglass composite material and the crystal is hardened mineral glass with aluminum bezel. This type of watch was used extensively in the Gulf War. Stocker & Yale no longer produces military watches. In excellent condition with a NEW Ronda 715 movement and new black nylon Maratac strap. Great everyday watch! Last one!

US Military Navigator's Watch by Marathon
NIB U.S. Military Navigator's Watch, dated June 2012. The asymetrical nylon/fiberglass composite case is almost 33mm in diameter and 13mm thick, water resistant to 6 ATM [click here]. This Type III Class 1 issue watch is made to the latest MIL-PRF-46374G spec. High quality, hacking Swiss-made quartz movement. Tritium-tube hands and markers. Hesolite crystal. It is designed for accuracy at high altitude to 35,000 FT without compensating pressurization. The rotating bi-directional outer bezel provides marking for a second time zone. The stainless steel back has full military markings [click here]. Comes with black nylon flight strap and strap-mounted compass. Great everyday watch.

Royal Navy Diver's Watch by CWC
CWC (Cabot Watch Company) has made watches for the British Ministry of Defense for over 30 years and their automatic diver's watch has been made to exacting MOD specs. It was issued for approximately one year and replaced the Rolex Submariner Automatic in the early 80s. It was then replaced by the CWC RN quartz divers' watch, which is still in current service today with Royal Navy divers. Swiss mechanical hacking auto movement, water-resistant to 300 metres, tritium luminous markers. Fixed bars. NATO stores numbers and broadarrow on back [click here]. On new OD strap. With original box and papers. Looks unworn and keeps excellent time. Currently over $800 at Silverman's.

Navigator's Watch Carrying Case
These cases were machined from solid brass to protect the 4992B navigational watch from stray magnetic fields. The watch holder [click here] is made of brass and the springs (to protect the watch from vibration) are a copper alloy. The navigator would bring his watch aboard in this case. This example is in good condition -- a few paint chips as can be seen in the pic. Getting hard to find. If you have a 4992B, you have to have one of these!

WWII German Army Watch
This is a rare Wehrmacht issue watch. The outstanding dial is marked "Etanche" and, under that "77" (perhaps a reference to the movement). It's a small watch, only 29mm in diameter, but the case is not brass or stainless steel but an aluminum alloy! Knirim in his reference book on military timepieces suggests that this may have been issued to women (Damenuhr)! The stainless steel snap-back is DH marked [click here]. Running and all original. Includes a cotton canvas band that's the correct vintage but not original to the watch.

NOS Stocker and Yale 184-1
The SandY model 184-1 was made to mil spec MIL-W-46374 D and meets the requirements for a Type 2 designation. It has a non-hacking 17-jewel movement [click here] (pic is from another 184-1) and has never been worn. Fully marked back [click here]. In original box with papers. NIB issue watches are really special for collectors.

WWII Era Elgin 24hr watch
This watch has an Elgin true-24hr grade 539 16-jewel adjusted movement [click here]. Stunning black dial. It's housed in a 31mm NOS 3-piece stainless steel screw-back case with a coin-edge bezel. [click here] No, it's not the elusive A-12. Watches such as these were never issued as wristwatches in WWII but were made from instrument watches -- like those used in wing cameras to document the action and, hopefully, a kill. Some are found in ordinance cases and some in A-11 cases (like the current example). But a cool piece nonetheless. Comes with a vintage NOS Elgin signed tan canvas band.

More from Time Machine Collectibles
Three Vintage 1930's, 50's, 60's Store Christmas Activity Books and a Store Christmas Comic Book for Children
Pictured for sale are Three Holiday/Christmas Activity Books and One Comic Book that were given free to youngsters when they went shopping with their parents for clothing and toys during the Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Holidays.
Growing up in 1950's I remember quite well receiving these wonderful activity books from department stores and shoe stores when my mom took me shopping. The four booklets range from the year 1931 through 1960 and are listed below along with a description and the condition.
1.)1931 Activity Booklet from Pomeroy's Department Store in Reading, Pennsylvania. The booklet is titled, "Here are The Things That Santa Claus Brings" "But What Brings Santa Claus?". The booklet has 16 fun-filled pages with 12 different activities for youngsters to do. Two pages are missing where a child would have written his or her letter to Santa and then dropped in a "Santa Box" on the six floor in Pomeroy's. The main store in Reading had over 324,000 sq. ft. with a bargain basement and six more floors. The entire sixth floor was full of Christmas presents for young and old and decorations which were seen by 10's of thousands of people as they visited the store. Pomeroy's opened on April 1, 1876, and added 14 stores over the years but with slower business due to the introduction of Shopping Malls they eventually sold out to the owner of Bon Ton stores in June of 1987. This store was by far one of the most beloved stores of the Babyboomer Generation during the 1950's and 1960's in all of Pennsylvania. It measures 7 1/2" x 10 1/2".
**Condition: The front and back covers are in fair+ condition, clean and bright. The inside pages are in good condition, clean and bright. *Covers: There is surface wear to the covers, wear along the spine, tears at the top and bottom of the spine, wear and pieces missing from the corners, and there is wear along all the edges.*Inside pages: There is a tiny corner piece missing from the bottom right corner of the second page, a picture is in pencil on the fifth page, a picture on the tenth page is colored in, and a tiny corner piece is missing from a corner of the 14th page and the 15th page.
2.)1960 "Merry Christmas Story and Coloring Book" from Newberry's Department Store. There are 16 pages to color in this very cute book. In addition there are five pages in color showing fantastic toys that could be purchased at Newberry's for Santa to place under the Christmas Tree in 1960. The store was founded in 1911 in Stroudsburg, Pa., by J.J. Newberry. The Five and Dime Store had over 560 stores and only the Woolworth's Five and Dime Stores had more stores across the country. After 90 years they closed their final store in 2001 in Portland, Oregon. It measures 7 1/4" x 10 1/4".
**Condition: The front and back covers are in good+ condition, clean and bright. The inside pages are in very good condition, clean and bright. There is a small stain at the top and bottom left corners of the front cover. There is a small stain at the top right corner of the back cover and a ½" tear and three tiny tears along the bottom edge of the back cover. *Inside Pages: There is a small stain on the top and bottom of the inside of the front cover.
3.)This very rare Child's Activity Workbook is from 1955 and copyright by Richard F. Seiverling and published by The Hershey Chocolate Company of Hershey, Pa. The book is titled, "The Hershey Twins Dickey and Lainey" "Visit The Farm". Stories and ideas are by Richard F. Seiverling and illustrations and designs by Edward J. Tylden. The activity book could be found in the amusement park for kids to purchase but it was also made available for teachers as an educational, informative, and supplementary reading book and entertaining tool for students. The booklet has 32 pages filled with activities showing mom and dad at home with the kids, the kids at home and outside at school and a trip to a farm, all of which they could color. It measures 9" x 11 3/4".
**Condition: The front and back covers are in good condition, clean and bright. The inside pages are in very good condition, clean and bright. *Covers: There is light surface wear to the front and back covers, light wear to the spine, light wear to the edges, and a minor crease mark to the bottom left corner of the back cover.*Inside pages: All the inside pages are very clean and uncolored and in fantastic condition.
4.)The last item is a 1945 "Buster Brown Comic Book", No. 29, which were given away in shoe stores that carried Buster Brown Shoes. During the 1940's Smilin' Ed McConnell along with the Buster Brown Gang were heard on the radio and TV every Saturday morning featuring songs, jokes, and stories. This is issue number 29 and features Smilin' Ed and the gang at Christmas and was given away by the Wetherhold & Metzger Shoe Store in Allentown, Pennsylvania. The story is all about Ed and the Gang as they search for the perfect Christmas tree and all the crazy things that happened before and after the tree was put up. Also there is a jungle adventure titled, "Ambush", and another out of this world story titled, "Space Trap", about The Star Queen, a giant space liner of the future as it makes a routine flight from Earth to Venus when it is suddenly attacked by a mysterious Sky Raider.
**Condition: The front and back cover are good+ condition, clean and bright. The inside pages are in very good condition, clean and bright. *Covers: There are tiny crease marks at the corners, light surface wear to the covers and edges, and a crease mark down the center of the front cover.*Inside pages: There are tiny corner folds on a few of the inside pages.
As a little boy growing up in the 1950's it was really cool to get these and sitting on the floor at home and playing with them. A cool gift to give your parents or your grandparents that grew up in the 1950's and 1960's who will surely remember getting them from when they were little kids

Anyone who has spent five minutes, if that, with Stefanie Dolson understands that it's not exactly a perilous leap to suggest she's a five-tool threat to morph into a post-UConn media star: looks, humor, smarts, personality � and did we mention personality?
And now this offseason has merely reinforced it. Dolson parlayed a summer internship with SNY with her state television debut Tuesday, hosting the state's only Connecticut-centric television sports talk show, "Beyond The Beat" on CPTV Sports.
Stef Dolson hit a grand slam.
No, really. She's on her way. She could be the next Rebeeca Lobo. And that's the highest compliment.
Primer: "Beyond The Beat" is the brainchild of yours truly and Jeff Jacobs of the Hartford Courant. We'd discussed a state sports talk show for years until the CPTV Sports folks were kind enough to provide a forum. And now every week, with the estimable assistance of host Joe Zone of Channel 3, we laugh and holler our way through 30 minutes from Geno's Fastbreak at Mohegan Sun.
We've been fortunate enough to take the show on the road, all the way to New Orleans, for a Final Four special. We've had Geno Auriemma, Mike Thibault, Anne Donovan, Paul Pasqualoni, T.J. Weist, Jim Penders, Mike Cavanaugh, Warde Manuel, Swin Cash, Joe D'Ambrosio, Scott Gray, UConn football players Byron Jones and Tim Boyle, a number of high school coaches and other media personalities as guests.
Not bad for the first year. And this week marked our one-year anniversary. Idea: guest host. Solution: Dolson, whose comedic repertoire fortifies her Twitter handle, "@bigmommaStef." The idea of the show, other than to showcase Dolson, was to have her ask us the questions.
"I was a little nervous because this was the first time I had every done anything like this," Dolson said after the taping, which was Tuesday at Gampel Pavilion. "I'd say it was somewhat similar to the first college game I ever played at UConn. There were a lot of people (at the game) and pressure. But when you are doing something like (taping) for the first time, something that is new to you, it is nerve-wracking."
Fun would be one way to describe the 30 minutes with her. Hilarious would be another. Stef Dolson was completely herself, not to mention a rock looking into the camera with no prompter and running the show like our own point guard.
We talked about a number of issues: how come everyone in the media mispronounces "Kaleena Mosqueda Lewis," whether it's hard to sit stoically at courtside during games and favorite moments and people to cover. Dolson was completely in charge.
We talked about her "bunny ears" episode with President Obama and her faux pas during last season's NCAA tournament when she took a violent tumble and uttered one of George Carlin's seven words you can't say on television into television cameras. We nearly enticed her into giving the bunny ears to Zone as he was doing a few teasers for the week.
This was where at least half of the old Red Smith line about sportswriters - he called us "underpaid and overprivileged" - applied. At least the overprivileged part. How fortunate, indeed, that we get to watch the subjects we cover grow up and into vibrant young adults. Stef Dolson arrived here as a funny, outgoing kid, no doubt. Now four years later, the whole package has been cultivated and is on display for all to see.
When sports fans see UConn represented this year - at least the ones who watch women's basketball - they'll see this funny, engaging young woman who is bound for a TV career.
Let's hope she remembers us little people when she's famous.
CPTV Sports, still a relatively new channel, broadcasts all the state high school football and basketball championship games as well as the Connecticut Sun and several other state sports events. But it might not have had a better day than Tuesday, when its face was the most outgoing UConn student-athlete of them all.
This is the opinion of Day sports columnist Mike DiMauro.

As the information technology industry evolves unceasingly, brand new hosting services are introduced to make site creation and management easier than ever.

Corporate pages, social networks and video sharing web portals are very popular and busy web pages that request a lot of system resources to function. The more visitors a website accommodates simultaneously, the more system resources will be needed to manage all the requests from the users' web browsers and to complete them. This is why a dedicated server would be the optimal website hosting platform for such portals.

The Diamondbacks swept the Marlins in a doubleheader yesterday, winning the two games 3-2 and 3-0. In a little bit of an interesting note, each Arizona starter was a rookie, and Wade Miley ad Tyler Skaggs both shut down the slumping Miami team. Arizona is still in this playoff race at three games above .500 and four games behind the second wild card leading Cardinals, and they need to stay hot to make a run.
Game of the Night: White Sox 2, Yankees 1. The White Sox took an early 1-0 lead on a Kevin Youkilis sac fly. but Derek Jeter tied the game up in the sixth with a homer. That would be all that Chicago would get off a dominant Chris Sale, and Alex Rios immediately answered the Jeter homer with one of his own. Addison Reed shut down the Yankees in the ninth, and the White Sox swept New York at home for the first time in 21 years, keeping them ahead of the Tigers in the AL Central.
Pitching Lines of the Night: Sale, Sale, and more Sale. He decimated the Yankees, allowing one run on three hits over 7 2/3 innings, walking one and striking out 13. What a season for him. Miley's dominance of the Marlinsl was excellent as well, throwing eight shutout frames and allowing just four hits, striking out five with only one walk. Tommy Milone was at home for the A's, so of course, he dominated the Twins in a 5-1 win. Milone went eight, allowed one run on two hits, walked one, and struck out five. Bronson Arroyo allowed two runs on three hits over eight innings in Philly in a 3-2 Reds win, striking out four without a walk.
Hitting Lines of the Night: In a 12-3 Rangers win over the Orioles, Adrian Beltre went 3/5 with three homers and five RBI. Not bad. In an 8-4 Giants win over the Dodgers, Joaquin Arias of all people went 3/4 with five RBI, two doubles, and a homer. Ryan Braun stayed hot in a 5-3 Brewers win over the Cubs, going 3/4 with two runs, two RBI, a double, a triple, and a homer. Coco Crisp gave Milone all the offense that the A'e needed in that win over the Twins, going 3/3 with three runs, two RBI, a walk, a double, a homer, and a steal.
Other Games: The Rays beat the Royals 5-3 to stay scorching hot. The Mariners also stayed hot, beating the Indians 3-1. The Padres continued their dominance of the Pirates, winning 4-2 to complete a sweep. The Tigers edged the Blue Jays 3-2. Kris Medlen dominated the Nationals in a 5-1 Braves win. Jered Weaver pitched well for the Angels in a 7-3 win over the Red Sox. The Rockies beat the Mets 5-2. The Cardinals beat the Astros 4-2.
Today's Games: Only half of the teams are playing today, and three of the eight games on the docket are day games. Justin Verlander starts for the Tigers against the Blue Jays. CJ Wilson starts for the Angels in Boston. Johnny Cueto and the Reds look for a series win against Cole Hamels and the Phillies. Scott Diamond and the Twins travel to Texas to take on Roy Oswalt and the Rangers.
Enjoy your day of baseball, everyone.
