Aiken Standard (Newspaper) - July 13, 1989, Aiken, South Carolina Sports Women's Open Begins Page 7 A A Quick Read Cuba Executes Former Officers MEXICO CITY (AP) — Four former military officers were executed today in Cuba for drug smuggling, the official news agency Prensa I patina reported from Havana. The four were former Gen. Arnatto Ochoa: former Col. Antonio de la Guardia Font; former Maj. Ar-mado Padron; and former Capt. Jorge Martinez. They were sentenced to death last week after a court-martial found they helped .smuggle tons of cocaine into the United States. All were stripped of their military ranks and thrown out of the Communist Party. Ochoa, 57, fought alongside Cuban leader Fidel Castro during the Cuban revolution and became one of the country's best-known war heroes. The court-martial also handed out prison sentences ranging from IO years to 30 years to IO other defendants in the case. When Smiths Meet, Everybody's Same WASHINGTON (AP) - If you call the Hyatt Regency in suburban Bethesda, Md., this weekend and ask for Jim Smith, expect exasperation. There will be about 50 Jim Smiths registered. They're members of the Jim Smith Society. They'll be attending its annual summer get-together, reveling in what they have in common — a name. They're only a fraction of the Jim Smiths who belong to the society. Its membership numbers 1,502, from virtually every state and many other countries. The Jim Smith Society is the brainchild of — this will come as no surprise — a gent named Jim Smith. A good-natured James H. Smith Jr., 68, of Camp Hill, Pa., retired public relations man, he is the selfdescribed * 'founder-president-news-letter editor-chief bankroller." He established it 20 years ago. Weather Storms Possible Partly cloudy skies are forecast tonight with a 30 percent chance of thunderstorms. The low will be in the mid 70s. Considerable cloudiness is forecast Friday with a 40 percent chance of thunderstorms. The high will be in the 90s. Please see details on Page 6A. Deaths Rosalyn Pearson, Aiken Ellen W.

The Southern Growth Policies Board recommends its 12 member states and Puerto Rico forgive some educational loans in some critical technical fields, and use a portion of unemployment insurance funds to finance worker retraining. "Underinvestment in human resources has left the region in an untenable posi tion as the face of global production and distribution changes," the report says. Louisiana Gov. Buddy Roemer says the report recognizes the shift away from the South's traditional industrial lure of cheap labor. "As the world grows smaller, there are other parts of the world where labor is cheaper," Roemer said. "Cheap is no longer good enough for the South. We must now be the best." He said the report is meant "not as a blueprint for A, B, C action. It is a calling to awareness on the part of the South.,' The report is meant to encourage state governments to consider technological growth when forming policy. If done properly, board members believe, the growth in technological proficiency will buoy Southern economic development. Though the rural South's share of high-tech businesses grew into the early 1980s, the region as a whole is regarded by many as technological!) poor. A report card issued earlier this year by the private, non-profit Corporation for Enterprise Development ranked Southern states on average 39th among the 50 states in terms of technological resources, the report says. The board is a public interstate agency studying economic development in the South. Its member states include Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Board Chairman Gov. Carroll Campbell said the report shows states how to innovate in ways the federal government cannot. "We think we can fill a void," Campbell said. "We see the flexibility of the states to be the innovators. We're the laboratories." (Please See SOUTH, Page 11A) Optimistic Bush Joins Paris Gala Staff Photo By Ginny Southworth TAX APPEAL: Property owners line up to see appraisers at the county tax assessor's office. Reassessment Appeals Piling Up For Assessors BY CAROL WOODWARD Staff Writer Approximately 1,804 taxpayers have filed appeals with the county tax assessor's office, complaining their property has been reassessed for too much money. Aiken County Tax Assessor Sally Fox said that's really "not that large a number when you consider that we mailed out about 70,000 tax reassessment notices." But by 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, 104 property owners had filed appeals for that day alone, and about 20 more were waiting outside the tax assessor's door. Bob Brown of North Augusta said he wanted to see an appraiser about property that belonged to his deceased mother that had been appraised by a realtor for $95,000, but was appraised by the tax assessor's office for $113,000. "I'm like everybody," Brown said, "I know I have to pay taxes, but I want to be paying taxes that are fair and square across the board." 'I want to be paying taxes that are fair and square across the board.' — Bob Brown, North Augusta Patrick Shanahan, also of North Augusta, said he is more concerned with what he thinks is the "unequal evaluation of land as opposed to dwellings." He said his dwelling appraised at $43,000 last year, and $55,000 this year, but that his land increased from $2,800 to $15,000. Mrs. Fox said she understands why some property owners are unhappy, but pointed out that she and her five appraisers are licensed appraisers and have the same qualifications as realtors when appraising property. (See REASSESSMENT, Page 11A) President Pleased With Reception On East European Tour By The Associated Press PARIS — President Bush, buoyed by his landmark visit to Eastern Europe, joined other world leaders today for a spectacular Parisian party celebrating the 200th anniversary of the French Revolution. On ins way to ti e French capita', Bush voiced hope tha lis tour of Putrid and Hungary had "given encouragement to those who want to go the path of reform, political change, economic change" in those communist nations. The gala events preceding a summit meeting of the world's seven largest industrial democracies contrasted sharply with the president's trip to Poland and Hungary , where he promised to help both communist nations with major economic reforms. Bush was greeted by French President Francois Mitterrand at the inaugural bicentennial event at the Place du Troca-dero commemorating the Declaration of the Rights of Man. That statement, issued in August 1789, set forth the French Revolution's aims of liberty, fraternity and equality for all people. The world leaders sat on a blue and white grandstand listening to a young man and woman who took turns reading the 17 articles of the declaration. A children's choir dressed in white sang a "song of joy," played games and threw peace laurels, flowers and children's toys on the esplanade. At the end of the ceremony, the leaders burst into applause as a flock of doves flew over the palace. Then, chatting amiably, they left for a lunch given by Mitterrand, who sat next to Bush during the ceremony. Before leaving Budapest for the French capital, Bush told Hungarian leaders that "as your economy modernizes, you will play an even greater role in the evolution of a new Europe, a Europe that is whole and free." Bush told his Hungarian hosts, "you are proving, here in the heartland of Europe, that the Rights of Man are the proper birthright of us all. " In an impromptu news conference on Air Force One during the flight to Paris, (Please See OPTIMISTIC, Page UA) SATISFIED: A happy President Bush arrives in Paris. Leaders See No Woes On Summit Eve By The Associated Press PARIS — Leaders of the world's seven major industrial democracies gather in Paris on Friday for their 15th annual economic summit, surrounded by France's bicentennial hoopla and with a comfortable sense of economic self-satisfaction. The oil crises, inflationary pressures, monetary instability and other woes that dominated previous summits seem contained, giving the government leaders time to take an unhurried look at matters such as the environment and Third World debt. The surge in the dollar that started in June, sending economic shivers down the backs of many a government official, has been cooled after massive intervention by central banks selling dollars. An optimistic U.S. Treasury Secretary Nicholas Brady emphasized the Western (Please See LEADERS, Page 11A) Soybean Nosedive Surprises Growers From Staff And Wire Reports A giant Italian agricultural company denied attempting to corner the soybean market and said a Chicago Board of Trade order to liquidate big soybean futures positions "undermines the reliability" of its contracts. Soybean futures prices nosedived Wednesday on the heels of the unusual order from the commodity exchange. That order was widely seen as aiming to blunt an attempt to corner the market, in which one party buys enough of a commodity to control its price and drive it higher. Aiken County growers expect the results to be long range. Jackson farmer Roy A. Steed Jr. said that the actions taken in Chicago Wednes day "will definitely affect the price" of the soybeans, which he will harvest in late October to early November. "The market varies from day to day anyway, and we are used to that, but not that much ir -ne day," he said. Soybean *. Triers have several options available to nelp offset the fluctuations in the market, Steed said. Farmers can contract some or all of their crop at an agreed upon price before they harvest, they can sell their crop after the harvest at current market prices, or they can store the soybeans and wait for prices to go up, he said. Steed said that last year he contracted approximately 3,500 bushels before he harvested. This year, however, he has not contracted any of his soybean crop. "We may wish we had contracted some this year." Area soybean farmers, however, say that they still have time to wait and see how the market rebounds from Wednesday's decline before they decide what to do with this year's crop. Exchange spokesman Raymond Carmichael said only that the order was issued late Tuesday to correct a wide disparity between the number of contracts outstanding and the actual supply of soybeans available. The Chicago Sun-Times, quoting unidentified analysts and trading sources, reported that the order was targeted at Ferruzzi SpA, Western Europe's leading grain trader and one of the world's largest soybean processors.

Easter film ideas for kids.
If you choose to take your kids to the cinema this Easter break, these are the newest movies for you and the little ones to enjoy!
Muppets Most Wanted
Disney's "Muppets Most Wanted" takes the entire Muppets gang on a global tour, selling out grand theatres in some of Europe's most exciting destinations, including Berlin, Madrid and London. The gang will get involved in an international crime frolic headed by Constantine—the World's Number One Criminal and a dead ringer for Kermit—and his accomplice Dominic, aka Number Two, portrayed by Ricky Gervais.
Rio 2
Funny, colourful and full of energy, the family adventure 'Rio 2' sees Blu swap the urban life in Rio for a tropical adventure in the wilderness of the Amazon.

And if you' ve missed it…..
Mr. Peabody & Sherman
Mr. Peabody, voiced by Ty Burrell, is an all-knowing dog while Sherman, Max Charles, is the small boy he has adopted. Together, they use their time machine – the WABAC – to go on the most outrageous adventures known to man or dog. In their time travels, Mr. Peabody and Sherman get all mixed up with the space-time continuum, and encounter, among others, Leonardo da Vinci and Albert Einstein. This is s a spinoff from the 1960 television series Rocky and Bullwinkle, and it's a pleasant, often amusing, family film with lots of kid-friendly and puns but also plenty of references that will go over the heads of the smaller members of the audience.
The Lego Movie
Warner Bros first-ever, full-length theatrical LEGO® adventure, follows Emmet, an ordinary, perfectly average LEGO mini-figure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world. Recruited to join a quest to stop an evil LEGO tyrant, can he help them stop the mad, bad man from gluing the universe together?

No way do I include Trouba in any deal. This kid has the potential to be a main stay top 2-4 dman that will log a ton of mins. You covet those players, you don't use them as throw ins to try and even out a deal.
The Jets could really use ROR's game down the middle, however, making a trade for him would be very difficult at this time because...
#1. We're currently scarce on D
#2. We don't know when Enstrom will return.
#3. We don't know if/when Redmond will return.
#4. Burmi just turned 21, and is a hybrid Canadian/Russian with loads of potential.
#5. Little can also play top 6 RW, and the Jets cupboard is bare in this dept.
The price is Burmi or Little and probably Postma to get ROR in a Jets jersey, and I'm not so sure Chevy would be willing to do a deal like that...unless a 3rd pick is coming back in return. And even then Melchiori would have to be ready for 10-12 mins a game.

The Maldives

Best Destinations in the World for Snorkeling
The mystery of our oceans has fascinated mankind ever since the ancient times. We learned how to swim, to float, to dive, and eventually set sail. The seas and oceans have always beckoned us to indulge in some fine recreational activities. In fact, according to some historical accounts, one of the earliest references to snorkeling was made by the Greek philosopher, Aristotle, in his Parts of the Animals.
Snorkeling, as we know, is an essentially hassle-free activity that allows you to explore the beauty of our oceans, minus all the learning and licensing that comes with its more expensive sibling, scuba diving.
You don't really need to watch the Discovery Channel on your HD television to experience the breathtaking beauty of our oceans. Pay a visit to any of these places, put on your snorkeling gear, and dive into the gorgeous azure abyss.

Our system has been written in this way so that we can provide you with the correct information prior to you purchasing.

How secure is buying over the web / I've heard horror stories about other Internet companies?
If we look at the security issue first, when you type your credit/switch card number into our site, our web site is in secure mode. This means that the information you type in will be encoded and our server decodes it. Anyone "listening" to traffic en route will not be able to make sense of your number. Our system, known as the "Secure Socket Layer", works an is used by every trading web company. You will be able to tell if you are in secure mode when a little padlock appears at the bottom right of your screen.
If you are a UK resident using a UK issued card for a transaction over £100, you are automatically protected by Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. This means that if a trader fraudulently charges your card for something that you did not order then the credit card company is equally liable for the debt. Therefore, the credit card company would refund you for the fraudulent charge while making the corresponding charge directly to us. Given the above, if your enter your card details into a secure internet site it is much safer than giving them over an unsecured telephone line.

Gmail version 2.0: Google has just released a major update to its Gmail iOS app, introducing multiple account support, a new look that appears to be partly inspired by its Sparrow acquisition, search predictions and much more. The update also brings interactive Google+ posts support, an infinite scroll inbox, new welcome screen, and the ability to respond to Google Calendar invites. Google walked through some of the new features of the overhauled Gmail app in a blog post noting the app was six months in the works:
Six months ago, our team set out to completely rebuild the Gmail app for iPhone and iPad to give you you a faster, sleeker, and easier experience on iOS. The result? Version 2.0. With version 2.0 of the app, you'll get a totally new look and feel, plus a bunch of improvements like profile pictures in messages, numerous new animations from swivels to transitions and infinite scrolling in the message lists.

Kindle version 3.5: Amazon previously rolled out its X-Ray feature, which used to be exclusive to Kindle devices, to iOS devices back in October.

The update also includes "Manga Image Rendering Improvements":
• X-Ray for Books – see the "bones of the book". X-ray helps you learn more about notable characters, places, and phrases with descriptions from Shelfari.com and Wikipedia. • Manga Image Rendering Improvements

When Apple's Senior Vice President of Marketing Phil Schiller unveiled the iPad mini on stage earlier this month, he didn't discuss the speaker on the new device. There were rumors that the iPad mini might include stereo speakers, but tech specs on Apple's website only list a "built-in speaker" for iPads. Adding to the rumors that iPad mini might actually have a mono speaker, Amazon posted a comparison of the new iPad and its Kindle Fire HD tablet, listing dual stereo speakers vs a mono speaker as one of the the Kindle's advantages. A curious 9to5 reader wanted to find out what speaker Apple is actually including in the device and was able to get an email response direct from Phil Schiller.
Hi Mr. Schiller,
I understand the tech specs about iPad Mini online should cover everything, but the tech specs online neither confirm or deny the rumors of iPad Mini's speakers being stereo. Is it possible to get confirmation from the man himself as to whether these are mono or stereo?
Schiller responded: expand full story

The Canon 5D Mark III kit just got a $350 price drop at B&H Photo. The 5D Mark III w/ EF 24-105mm f/4L is currently available for $3749 here at B&H Photo (previously, it was $4098).
This is a steal on the body-only price of $3459.

This is a steal on the body-only price of $3459.
The initially hard to find Canon ST-E3-RT Speedlite Transmitter, which connects via radio transmission with Canon's new 600EX-RT Speedlite, is now in stock. Check it out here at B&H Photo.
Canon is serving up a $400 instant rebate on the Canon 5D Mark II, which is likely being pushed aside now that the Canon 6D has landed. This puts the Canon 5D Mark II body at $1799 shipped and the 5D Mark II + 24-105mm f/4L kit lens at $2499 shipped.
This massive price drop makes the 5D Mark II the cheapest full frame camera on the market in spite of the low starting prices of the new Canon 6D and Nikon D600.
Rumor has it that someone search for the Canon 3D last night at B&H Photo and got the above results. And, today, the listing is gone… [Read more…]
It appears that the Nikon D600 is widely available and is now shipping from B&H with pre-orders already filled. Notably, B&H is showing a $100 instant savings on the D600 w/ 24-85mm lens kit.
Other Nikon instant rebates apply when purchasing additional lenses with the D600 body or kit. You can find the Nikon D600 here at B&H Photo.
Through Sept. 8, you can get $100 off the Fuji X-S1 superzoom camera, which sports a 24-624mm equivalent zoom lens and 1080p HD video capture. Check it out here at B&H Photo.
Back in July, we learned that the new Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II was being pushed back to September. Well, it's September now and Canon Rumors has word that retailers have started to receive their stock of the new lens. The lenses are expected to be in retailers in North America and Europe by September 13.
The new lens was announced by Canon back in February 2012 and was slated for availability in April 2012. The lens is expected to be widely available by October after pre-orders are filled.
[via B&H Photo & Canon Rumors]
B&H now has pre-orders filled on the Canon 1D X and it is now in stock and shipping here at B&H Photo.
Amazon still has 12 left in stock at the time of this post as well.
The instant savings deals on Sony NEX cameras and lenses expire September 1, 2012. Check out all the cameras, lenses and adapters for up to $100 instant rebates here at B&H Photo.
The $200 savings on the Fuji X100 expires August 11, 2012. Until then you can find the 2011 Camera of the Year for $999 instead of the normal $1199 price. Check it out here at B&H Photo.

Securing radio and TV appearances can be a great way to get exposure for your small business. But what kind of stories are producers interested in covering? And what's the best way to get in touch with an idea? Here are some tips to get you started.
Research the programme you're pitching to
Broadcast producers receive hundreds of emails every day. So before you pick up the phone to talk to a producer or fire off an email pitch, do your homework on the programme or 'slot' you're pitching to. What is the format? Who do you think is their audience? What kind of stories do they usually run? If you haven't watched or listened the programme you're pitching to – or at least tried to find out the answers these questions – your idea is unlikely to hit the spot.
Next, find out the name of the producers on the programmes you'd like to contribute to (the quickest way to do this is to just pick up the phone and ask). Just avoid calling at obviously busy times - when the show is on air, for example.
Whether you're pitching an idea for a prime time news slot or a daytime chat show, it's important to describe to the producer what they will be able to see and hear.
For example, I go into my local radio station from time to time to do the newspaper review. Last time I was there I got talking to another guest - a man who had an olive vineyard in his back garden in Kent (and a rather unlikely part of the county at that). He'd brought in some of his olives, hummus and Italian bread for the presenters to try on air.
And if you're offering yourself or a colleague as an interviewee or 'talking head,' try to give the researcher or producer a sense of their character. Describing them as 'like Jamie Oliver with an Eton accent' or 'Mary Beard meets Abbey Clancy' is far more likely to grab their attention than 'we can offer you an interview with our CEO'.
Remember that timing is everything
If you want to get broadcast coverage for your small business, it's vital to know the lead times (the time between the producer deciding on the content and it being aired) for the programme or 'slot' you're pitching. On a daily news programme, where lead times tend to be shorter, you can pitch on the day a programme is broadcast, but on more feature-led programmes items might be commissioned days, weeks – or even months – in advance.
Be available
There's nothing more frustrating for a journalist or producer than being offered an interview with someone... only to find they're unavailable. So don't promise anything you can't deliver.
Many radio and TV programmes aren't 9-5 outfits, so make sure you're contactable via mobile phone during evenings and weekends. If you're pitching an idea for the breakfast show or drive time slot, you must have someone available to do an interview at that time.
If you're invited into a studio for an interview, do take up the opportunity if you can, as this can be a great way to make contacts and connections. And bear in mind that producers love experts who have an ISDN line in their office, or at home, as you get studio quality sound.
Have a killer email pitch ready to go
While most broadcast researchers and producers are fine with you pitching over the phone, many will also ask for something in writing. So make sure you always have a killer email pitch drafted and ready to send (broadcast deadlines are often much tighter than print). I've written about how to write an email pitch here.
As with any pitch, if you can write a compelling email header that makes it clear exactly what your story is and doesn't try to be clever or obscure, you're far more likely to get their attention. Getting the 'top line' of your story in your email pitch can help too.
Offer exclusives
Do bear in mind that programme makers are in competition with each other for stories – even on the same radio or TV station. So while general news releases are usually okay, if you pitch a more in-depth story or feature to several programmes (without being upfront about what you're doing), you could make yourself very unpopular.
Don't try to plug your company
This might sound counterintuitive, but journalists aren't there to help you promote your business - their job is to commission great content that will interest their audience. And advertising rules are so strict, they're generally not allowed to run stories that appear to promote products or service.
So instead of trying to plug what your company does, concentrate on pitching great stories that will allow you to show your expertise or get a mention of your company. One example a local radio producer mentioned to me recently was a story about a company director who gave a kidney to an employee. The story wasn't about the company itself, but it did get a mention.
Be proactive
Radio and TV producers (particularly on regional programmes) are always looking for experts and 'talking heads.' So if you have specific expertise, don't be afraid to pick up the phone and introduce yourself. As ever, timing is everything, so do call when you know there will be opportunities coming up. So if you're a financial expert, it can be a good idea to call up a few days before a government spending review, for example. An education expert might do the same just before exam results are published.
And do remember that producers and journalists frequently search online for experts to appear on their programmes. So make sure your website, social media profiles (and, in particular, your LinkedIn page) are up-to-date, with good quality photographs and examples of you in action, if possible. Contributing to online publications or writing a blog can be a good way to ensure you're found more easily.

Critics of annual meetings say that they don't really matter. Big institutional shareholders don't turn up because they get their questions answered whenever they want in one-to-one catch-ups with directors. They then dutifully cast their votes backing those directors weeks in advance. Annual meetings, the nay-sayers claim, serve as little more than a chance for small shareholders with time on their hands to enjoy a trip to London with a free lunch thrown in.
In many cases that's indeed what they are. When companies are doing their job and performing well, that is. But annual meetings serve an important purpose too. Company directors spend their lives in ivory towers surrounded by batteries of yes men who are employed, often at considerable expense, to tell them that all is rosy in their respective gardens.
The point about an AGM is that it forces those directors to listen to views that they might not like to have to listen to. It forces them to pay heed to real people, small investors whose wealth is directly affected by the decisions those directors take. It forces them to account for what they have done.
That's particularly important in an industry like financial services. Prudential is not a business like Tesco, whose chief executive visits a store every day and regularly talks to real customers. That rarely happens in life insurance, or its ugly sister, banking. The ivory tower syndrome is a very real one.
These businesses do a shockingly bad job for their customers. Customers they rarely pay much attention to, if the complaints data published by the Financial Services Authority are anything to go by (they have been rising relentlessly). Of course, AGMs aren't for customers (although many small shareholders are customers) but they do at least mean that directors have to sit and listen to the views of the little guy.
They might not take much note of them. If Prudential is anything to go by, they probably won't. If some of the scenes in and around the hall were anything to go by, together with the expressions on the faces of its directors, any contrition is only skin deep.
But even if Prudential's directors choose not to hear, it is good for them to be forced to listen, even if it is only once every year.

I have known and been treated for various conditions by Dr. Chang for over 15 years. He is amazing. He has treated me for bursitius in my shoulder and ankle sprains as well a low back pain. In each instance only two or a maximum of three visits
I highly recommend Dr. Chang! I have been seen for years for back pain and the most likely diagnosis (of the many I received) was myofibragia. By the time I went to Dr. Chang, I was unable to do a lot of everyday activities. After one visit the change was remarkable! I couldn't remember the last time I had felt so good! After that appt I slept better, had more energy, and most important- a lot less pain! I won't go as far to say I was 100% pain free, but it was a vast improvement. I have been back a few times and will continue to be seen. The price is way better then any other I could find in the area.

|Runaway Thread Problem
|Fri, 22 Jun 2001 12:29:05 GMT
I have searched through the archives and have found several people with this problem, but nothing that seems to fix it. Any help would be appreciated... We are running Apache 1.3.19, Tomcat 3.2.2, mod_jk, ajp13. After a day or so with a user load, our thread count continues to climb and threads are not released. We are running PoolTcpConnector and have made sure that threads are being released on our development site. We have a script that monitors the threads every hour and they seem to just increment throughout the day and are never released. Once the thread count reaches the 500 point, Tomcat stops responding. The apache server continues to accept requests once Tomcat stops. Once we restart Tomcat, the process cycles through again. Along with the thread count increasing, memory usage climbs until there is 5-10 MB free. We have moved the max threads value from 50-75-150-200 which didn't change the symptoms. We move the session timeout in WEB-INF/web.xml to 5 with no help. We have tried simulating the user load on our development environment but the thread count returns back to a normal level after letting it idle for a few minutes. I'm guessing we have issues in our application but have not been able to uncover them so far. Again thanks for any insight into the problem. Mark

I've been slowly but surly working up toward it … and it's arrived.
I've reached that another of the milestones that I have been aiming at.
A little triumph, for some I'm sure — but for me I'm SUPER pleased.
I never thought that I would get there as quickly as I have … But one never really gives yourself the credit that is more than appropriate.
I've been longing for a new piece of equipment and now I will be more able to afford it.
& will hopefully get more good images up faster.
Anyone that is wanting to help a starving — newbie — photographer get a little better, day by day please feel free to visit/peruse my portfolio [and preferably purchase a pic or two … LOL]
As a mater of interest [for those that may be] the image that did it for the milestone was:

This latest contribution to the flood of Chopin bicentennial releases finds the young French pianist Edna Stern performing a selection of études, ballades and waltzes on an antique Pleyel piano identical to that employed by the composer himself.
The tone is soft and sweetly tactile in the medium register, becoming harder and brighter in the treble, while the single-escapement action makes it harder to play fast repeated notes than on modern instruments, though this matters less when the material is played as deliberately slowly as in Stern's interpretations. Her measured pace is most noticeable on the Prelude No 20 in C minor and especially the Ballade No. 2 in F major.
