Re: (REQUEST) MIDI to MML converter
Unfortunately, that's the toughest part. You don't know which is appropriate for its part until you copy and paste them into the web composer and play them. Also, it's possible that it may not work because each track has multiple MML tracks (symbols may show as { and } in this case), which is why we use 3MLE to separate those tracks.
What a pain... -_-;;

Re: (REQUEST) MIDI to MML converter
On a side note if you have any digital piano or other instruments available, the recent one comes with supportive software that enables you to record what you played in a midi file. I tried converting the file I transfered from Yamaha piano (forgot the model number), and it works fine on 3MLE.

Library Corner - Kids Book Review
03/04/2013 , 10:53 AM by Kia Handley
The Windy Farm
written by Doug MacLeod and illustrated by Craig Smith
Picture book ages 5+
This very funny story is told by the young narrator who lives with her family 'on the windiest farm on Windy Hill.' It was all they could afford. Sometimes it was so windy, that their pigs nearly blew away and one time, even she nearly blew away. Luckily Grandpa had a big belly, so he never flew away.
To stop losing any of her family, mum made everyone very heavy metal shoes, even the pigs. On a particularly windy day, half their house blew away. They asked Uncle Jeff, who'd made lots of money from his oil well, if he could lend them some to fix it, but he refused, so they made do with what they had.
During another windy day, the windmill blew so fast, it created a fountain, so mum decided to remove some of the blades to slow it down. She used the spare blades to make more windmills and soon they'd built a windfarm. They created so much energy they sold it and became rich. They built a new, stronger house, even for the pigs but meanwhile, poor Uncle Jeff's well ran dry and he became poor, so he went to live with them.
He refused to wear the special shoes and 'one morning he blew away.' Cute, funny and with a very pertinent message.
Gracie and Josh
written by Susanne Gervay and illustrated by Serena Geddes
Picture book ages 5+
Susanne Gervay's books are heartfelt stories with characters who charm. Gracie and Josh are brother and sister. Gracie is full of life, loves to act and adores her brother who is older and is going to be a film director one day.
Josh is also sick. He has his good days, which Gracie likes and his bad days where he stays in his room and despite Gracie being told to stay away, she always sneaks in to tell him stories about characters who never give up.
Gracie particularly doesn't like it when Josh has to go to hospital. Sometimes he's so tired they just sit together, and other times they watch everyone in the ward, but when he's feeling much better he makes movies, something the entire ward ends up staring in. This is a touching book about when illness strikes a family and the love between a brother and sister, which is beautifully captured by Serena in her gentle, whimsical watercolours.
An Anzac Tale
written by Ruth Starke and illustrated by Greg Holfeld
Graphic novel reading age 8+
I love kids' books, but there are some that are more a work of art to be poured over and admired and this is one of them. From it's simple elegant end pages, to maps of the Gallipoli Peninsula and intricately drawn internal panels, this is a very fine book.
When Great Britain declares war against Germany, Australia joins the call and so do thousands of young men fired up by nationalism and the search for adventure, but soon after their arrival at Anzac Cove in Turkey, over 2000 ANZACS are dead and those left have to contend with flies, fleas, cold and disease. Ruth and Greg intricately show us the details of this war from the eyes of three mates, Roy, Tom and Wally.
We travel with them on the ships to Egypt, to the disastrous landing, to life in the trenches and the fear of loved ones back at home. We meet Simpson and his donkey and even see the armistice called between the Turks and Allies to give them time to gather their dead and wounded, in a brief moment of humanity. This is a wonderful introduction to the ANZAC story, particularly for reluctant readers, where both pictures and words equally and superbly tell the tale.
An Unusual Pursuit
written by Catherine Jinks
Older readers
In 1870 London, we meet 10-year-old Birdie McAdam. A poor, streetchild who is very much involved in the unusual pursuit of the title. Birdie is the apprentice of Alfred Bunce, who has plied a meagre trade as a bogler, or monster hunter.
For centuries bogles have been infesting London's darker places, lying in wait for children to eat. It is Bunce's job to catch them, which he can only do with Birdie as his bait. Birdie's job to coax them from their hiding places with her sweet singing, protected only by a ring of salt and Bunce's quick reflexes in striking the bogle before her young life is taken.
This is a bleak, dangerous, murky world that I loved. It is dark, muddy and beautifully evoked with a cast of characters reminiscent of a Dickens' novel! There are street children, dastardly doctors and rich, well-meaning gentry, a lot of lurking bogles and a young heroine who is plucky and brave.

CNN's Kyra Phillips: "definitely a major smear campaign going on" against Rove
Video ››› ››› SIMON MALOY
Loading the player reg...
CNN anchor Kyra Philips responded to a call by Democratic senators for President Bush to fire White House senior adviser Karl Rove for his alleged role in the outing of covert CIA operative Valerie Plame by saying: "definitely a major smear campaign going on."
Phillips made her comment on the July 12 edition of CNN's Live From ..., following footage of Sens. John Kerry (D-MA) and Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) calling for Rove to be fired:
KERRY: Is the value of day-to-day politics, and the value of political advice, and the value of his position greater than the national security of our country, and the protection of the identity of people, as well as their own word and their own policy? The White House's credibility is at issue here. I believe very clearly Karl Rove ought to be fired.
CLINTON: I'm nodding. [laughter]
BOB FRANKEN (national correspondent): And just a nod from the president, but no answer, Kyra, when he was asked about Karl Rove today at a photo op. Kyra?
PHILIPS: Bob, definitely a major smear campaign going on. I mean, what's the chances of hearing from Karl Rove? Could he speak? Could he come forward? A lot of people said that could just clear the air if he just came forward and gave the facts.
FRANKEN: Well, the White House would respond that the Democrats are involved in something akin to a smear campaign. The Democrats would only say that they're only interested in good government. And the White House says that in the context of an investigation that's ongoing Karl Rove should not speak.

AACR Roundup
Thursday, April 7, 2011
Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., of Jerusalem, Israel, and OncoGenex Pharmaceuticals Inc., of Bothell, Wash., presented preclinical data on their investigational compound custirsen (OGX-011/TV-1011), which is being investigated in Phase III studies in castrate-resistant prostate cancer. Custirsen is designed to block production of clusterin, a cell survival protein that is over-produced in several cancer types and in response to many cancer treatments. The companies also presented data showing an inhibitory effect of custirsen on heat-shock protein 90 (HSP90) in prostate cancer cells. Inhibition of HSP90 is being investigated as a strategy to treat prostate cancer, and the addition of custirsen may enhance the activity of HSP90 inhibitors.

Ed Miliband's relationship with his elder brother David is only just "healing", the Labour politician will reveal this morning. In a more emotional and intimate interview than he has given before, the opposition leader talks to Desert Island Discs host Kirsty Young about underestimating the pain caused by his decision to stand against his brother for the top job in their party, and about his recent anger at newspaper attacks on his late father, the Marxist academic Ralph Miliband.
In a BBC Radio 4 performance that attempts to underline his status as a normal bloke – although he admits he was too "square" to attract a girlfriend at university – Miliband's luxury item is a weekly chicken tikka masala from his local north London Indian takeaway. He also resorts to a number of "cheesy" hit tracks from his youth, including A-ha's Take On Me, for comfort on those lonely island nights. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams, is his choice of reading material.
Although not religious, Miliband tells Young he asked God to help his sick father as he travelled to see him in hospital during his final illness in 1994. "It was the only time in my life, I think, when I have ever prayed. I remember saying, if there is a God, please don't let this happen." His father's death was, he says, "the worst thing that has ever happened to me".
"He was a lodestar. I didn't agree with everything he said, but he was a point of reference." Miliband chooses two or three tracks that remind him of his father, including Paul Robeson's socialist anthem, The Ballad of Joe Hill.
Miliband's parents, both Jewish refugees, shared a love of Britain, he tells Young, despite the Daily Mail's claim that his father was unpatriotic. "The reason I hated that so much is because it was so much at odds with the way my parents felt about this country."
His mother, Marion Kozak, was five when war broke out and she hid in a Polish convent before being taken in by a Catholic family. Her father was killed in a concentration camp and she came to Britain on her own.
Miliband understands, he says, the public's interest in the family background of political leaders: "You can't understand me without understanding where I come from. In modern politics who you are, and who your family is, is always going to be relevant and important to people,It comes with the territory."
National interest in the family stepped up when Miliband stood against his brother for the leadership in 2010. His mother did not ask him not to stand, Miliband reveals, but simply told him to do what he felt was the right thing.
Asked by Young if he talked about the decision with his brother, he replies: "Not really. We had conversations. They were quite elliptical. Neither of us was desperate to confront it, I suppose. We didn't have a sort of total heart-to-heart about it."
He eventually beat the brother he had once described as his best friend by 1.3% of the vote, due to strong union support. "Is he still your best friend?" asks Young.
"Yes, but it has been incredibly tough. I didn't take the decision lightly. I knew it would have an impact; on my family, on him." Admitting that it is possible he underestimated the family trauma his move would cause, Miliband says he did it because he felt he had "got things to say, or things to do that I am in a better place than him, or others, to say and do about the way we need to move on from New Labour".
He says feelings between them are "healing" rather than "healed", and that he saw his brother a fortnight ago on a visit from New York, where he runs the International Rescue Committee. "He seems incredibly exhilarated by that, and I am very pleased about that."
The hardest part of his job, Miliband says, is the relentless timetable of modern politics. It is tough on his wife, Justine Thornton, and his two young boys, Daniel and Sam, he admits.
"It is incredibly hard. I am sure David Cameron and Nick Clegg, would say the same thing. Being a good dad and being a passable, decent husband is something that weighs on me."
When it comes to music, Miliband confesses he has no ear, but says he made his own choice of eight tracks and knows some listeners will not like them. "In a way, that is as it should be," he says.
Tony Blair, cast away in 1996, made a balanced selection of rock and classical music, featuring John Lennon's In My Life, Bruce Springsteen and Robert Johnson. Cameron may have chosen Benny Hill's novelty song, Ernie, the Fastest Milkman in the West, in 2006, but also selected indie heroes the Smiths, REM, Radiohead and the Killers.

text:
Some television captions were baffling, like Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld's mention of the ''instinct for cap larries,'' during a Pentagon briefing.
Others were almost racy. ''He has to rely on institutions that can tush out the vote,'' a union official was described as saying about Mark Green's chances of winning New York City's mayoral election.
And one was downright alarming about the state of American television. ''Two networks are helping mass murderers,'' President Bush appeared to say in a denunciation of Osama bin Laden.
A few typographical errors are inevitable in television captions for a live broadcast, and mistyping ''capillaries,'' ''push'' and ''terrorist networks'' (not ''two networks'') are relatively minor mistakes.Continue reading the main story
Still, errors in real-time captioning, subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing, increased noticeably after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11 as stenographers raced to keep up with an unusually high volume of live news events, briefings, special programs and news conferences.
Twenty million televisions equipped with caption decoders are sold every year in North America, said Gary D. Robson, the author of ''Inside Captioning.''
On Sept. 11, local stations, cable channels and the major networks went live and stayed live, and so did the captions. In bars, health clubs, offices, airports and tens of millions of private homes, captions became instant written confirmation of an unfolding reality too horrifying to absorb.
Most Americans just wanted to understand what was happening. Some industry veterans also noticed the pressure behind the scenes.
''Yes, there were more errors right after Sept. 11,'' Mr. Robson said. ''People were working very long shifts, and also, so many local stations were going live that companies did not have enough professionals. A lot had to put trainees on the air.''
An estimated 22 million deaf and hearing-impaired Americans depend on captions to understand what is unfolding on their television sets and in the world beyond. Many also noticed slips, but few took offense.
''Most of our people said they felt sympathetic to the poor court reporter trying to keep up with this,'' Bill Sparks, a spokesman for the National Association for the Deaf, said. ''But there were some gaps, and there were a lot of people frantic for information.''
Many captioners went far beyond the call of duty to keep viewers informed.
Holli Miller, 32, who transcribes television shows using satellite TV, a special stenography machine and a dedicated phone line from her living room in Des Moines, became a hero of her company, the National Captioning Institute, when she kept transcribing the Sept. 11 live coverage of WNYW, the New York City affiliate of the Fox network, for eight hours without a break.
''I had already been on live for three and a half hours and was getting ready to sign off when the first tower was hit,'' Ms. Miller recalled. That was 8:48 a.m. in New York. It was 7:48 in Des Moines.
Still typing, she waved her 8-year-old off to school and asked her father, a retiree, to watch her 5-year-old and 1-year-old. Ms. Miller did not pause even when the second plane hit.
''It was so horrifying, but I didn't cry or stop,'' she said. ''Adrenaline kicks in and you just focus on what you are doing instead of the horror.''
Ms. Miller, who has 11 years' experience in captioning, said she feared that if she stopped, it might be impossible for anyone else to get a working phone line in Manhattan and replace her. Networks suspended commercials, as did local stations, robbing captioners of their breaks and opportunities to use a bathroom.
''I didn't want to unhook, this was too important,'' she said.
Exhausted, Ms. Miller called it quits at 2:30 p.m. her time, and Fox 5 news carried no captions for half an hour while her employers scrambled to locate an employee in New Jersey who could hook up her telephone.
Ms. Miller said she had been captioning early morning shows for WNYW for four years and confessed that even on an uneventful day that is no easy task.
''You don't hear words like 'Verrazano' or 'Gowanus' every day -- not in Iowa,'' she said.
The emergency has ebbed a little, but the demands on captioning companies remain far higher than normal, said Karen A. Finkelstein, the manager of real-time captioning services for the National Captioning Institute, one of the top television captioning companies. Anthrax, the war in Afghanistan and events like the crash of an Airbus A300 in Queens, have kept captioners working overtime. MSNBC, for example, provided captions from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. before the terrorist attacks, but has now switched to 24-hour coverage.
''One of the really apparent things after Sept. 11 was the difference in quality,'' Ms. Finkelstein said. ''We train our stenographers for six months before they are allowed to work. Some smaller competitors grab people off the street and put them on the air, and in a crisis you can really tell.''
There are two kinds of captioning: One is offline, done by fast typists who work on taped programs, using standard PC keyboards and professional video-editing software. ''Real-time captioning'' for live programming require the same kind of machine used by court stenographers, with 22 keys that are pressed in combinations like piano chords.
Captioners are paid $20 to $120 an hour, Mr. Robson said, but the work requires about an hour of unpaid preparation time for every hour on the air, to study the spelling of names and other related research.
A good captioner can type 225 words a minute, but errors do occur. A television reporter doing a live stand-up talked of ''widows in pain'' after Sept. 11. The caption read, ''windowpanes.''
The Federal Communications Commission set a schedule requiring that captioning be phased in for almost all television programming by 2006. Now, stations are required to caption 25 percent of their programming, though most networks and local stations do much more. On Jan. 1, 2002, stations must caption half of their programming.
The new rules have helped produce new, small caption companies with little experience in crisis captioning.
But even veterans who captioned live reports of the Oklahoma City bombing said they had never dealt with anything like the attacks of Sept. 11.
''That was very, very emotional, but this was even harder,'' Kathy Robson, the wife of Mr. Robson and a professional captioner, who like many of her colleagues, worked overtime for days in a row after the attacks. ''I kept on typing, but I was just glad nobody could see my face.''Continue reading the main story

It is hard to improve upon the perfection of nature. For this reason, some of the best foods are ones that are prepared in simple fashion, with few ingredients to compete against the core essence of the natural flavor. This salad of sliced tomatoes is just such a dish.
Here, fresh tomatoes are thinly sliced and overlapped on a serving plate. A pinch of sugar brings out their natural sweetness, while small touches of oil, red wine vinegar and a sprinkling of scallions add just the right amount of contrasting flavors and color. I like to serve this salad at brunch, with a homemade roast beef hash. The subtly sweet tomatoes in their light, tart dressing counteract the rich oils in the hash. For the same reason, this salad goes well with any type of fried food, or sautéed fish or eggs.
Arrange the tomatoes on a serving platter, overlapping the edges slightly. Using your fingers, sprinkle the sugar on top. Drizzle the olive oil over the tomatoes, then sprinkle on the vinegar. Add salt and pepper to taste, then top with the green onions. Let the mixture sit for 5 to 15 minutes before serving.
Serves 4.

Looking for testers in the Southern Hemisphere - light up your board!
We have built a color-changing LED light system that mounts to any board (won't damage the board when it comes off) and really makes you stand out on the mountain! We need help testing from riders in the southern hemisphere (or anywhere with snow for the next couple months), since our snow up here in the northern hemisphere is pretty much gone. We have systems ready to ship out for testing.
If you ride regularly - any experience level is great - and are interested, please let us know soon. Take it from someone who's tested the lights - it's fun, and you will definitely stand out on the slopes! For video, check out the YouTube video (soon to be launched on Kickstarter). Thanks!
I am going snowboarding in the southern hemisphere tomorrow but there no fucking way im putting that shit on my board!
PM BurtonAvenger He might be able to help.

I watched the whole thing.
The first 2 minutes I thought he was joking and this was some kind of parody of another LED light snowboard video.
Skip to 6:15 to see bad riding. Then comes bad riding set to techno music.
This is fail and it reminds me of the neons on those fast and the furious cars people used to drive back in like 2001.
He will speaketh the truth on this one !!!
Go one up and wear the LED suit with it :thumbsup:
Why dear god why do people that are not snowboarders and obviously have no clue what you actually need for function create these horrible ideas. WHY? This is what I stay up at night having nightmares about!
Just like I'm dying to shove that cotton swab up my pee hole and see if I got the clap from that hooker, I mean your mom last night!
I'm pretty sure at least half of that stuff would fall off after a serious kicker or a cliff drop. That stuff might be ok for snow plowing down the bunny slope, but I don't think it would hold up to most advanced riders. Also, I don't think I'm alone here, but I'm not too keen on the idea of flying around on rainbows late at night, people might think less of me. Personally if visibility is a real issue I'd rather rock a head lamp, but I'm sure there's probably a market for this thing in Japan, they do have these: Japanese light trucks are blings of the road | Mail Online

Bilateral Matters, EU Perspectives and the Western Balkans on Agenda of Meeting with Albanian Foreign Minister Islami
Vienna, 21 April 2005 - Foreign Minister Ursula Plassnik received her Albanian counterpart Kastriot Islami for a working meeting in Vienna today. Mr. Islami's first official visit to Austria focused on bilateral relations as well as economic cooperation between the two countries and Albania's EU perspectives. Moreover, the foreign ministers discussed issues of legal certainty, infrastructure extension and regional policy in the Western Balkans as well as developments in Kosovo.
"Austria maintains very close relations with Albania. She is a good and reliable partner of Albania at a bilateral level and in the European Union alike," emphasised Foreign Minister Plassnik at the press conference following the meeting. The point was now to identify room for improvement. "What is true of other states in the Western Balkans region, is true of Albania: her future lies within the European Union," Plassnik stressed; she went on saying that Austria supported the earliest conclusion of an Association Agreement between Albania and the European Union, which has been under negotiation since January 2003. In this context, a "fair and calm election campaign, proper parliamentary elections in the summer and further progress in implementing reforms to ensure the rule of law and a sound judiciary system as well as the fight against corruption and organised crime" would be of great importance now.
"Albania is one of the most important countries in the focus of Austria's Eastern Cooperation programme," underscored Plassnik, referring to various Austrian projects in the fields of environmental protection, water management, energy, regional development and vocational training which are financed by Austria to the tune of roughly 22 million euro. She also stressed the role of individual Austrian provinces involved in bilateral projects, such as the province of Vorarlberg and its school projects.
The Foreign Minister said that Austria also contributed to strengthening Albania on its way to Europe under several EU programmes, such as the regional CARDS project in the judiciary sector, which is under Austrian leadership, or by providing assistance to the criminal investigation training of police.
Plassnik acknowledged the role of Albania in south eastern Europe. Due to its moderate and responsible attitude, Albania would contribute to stabilising the situation in the region and maintain good relations with her neighbours.

Australia government embroiled in homophobia row
By Rob Taylor
CANBERRA (Reuters) - Australia's center-left government was accused of homophobia Thursday after two men appointed as high-profile ambassadors for men's health were linked to a newsletter containing anti-gay views.
Health Minister Nicola Roxon was forced to sack one of the ambassadors, appointed only two days before, and said she should have been more diligent about background checks for the men.
"These comments particularly about homosexuality are quite abhorrent," Roxon told state radio after sacking one of the two men.
The two were among six men named earlier in the week as role-models for Australian men on health matters.
Both were later found to have been listed as co-authors and contributors to a newsletter calling homosexuality a mental illness and blaming "radical feminist-led attempts to enforce social androgyny" for harm of boys and young men.
"Gender disorientation pathology is a symptom of family dysfunction, personality disorder, father absence, health malfunction or sexual abuse," said the document, published by the Fatherhood Foundation.
Openly gay Australian Greens leader and senator Bob Brown said Roxon had for years prodded the former conservative government to tighten laws discriminating against single-sex couples, before Roxon's Labor was elected last year.
"Nicola was the Labor shadow minister who told a cheering throng in this building in 2004 that Labor would lead the charge to ban gay marriage," Brown said. Continued...

Two, NCM, did not play much, even in a blow out, but still looked good. Are the Pistons sandbagging him? Considering how well David Lee looked in his second year, and you have to think Nik is a David Lee clone, Joe has to be interested. Read this quote on him: Named to the All-ACC team two years in a row and being named team MVP after his senior season clearly show Caner-Medley's college career was not too shabby. It is easy to spot Caner-Medley on the floor because he is left-handed, plays extremely hard, slashes fearlessly to the basket and aggressively shoots jumpers with defenders on him. Caner-Medley led Maryland in scoring the last two seasons, scoring 16 points per game his junior season and 15.3 per game his senior season. Sounds like the type of guy we need, you can never have too many 6'8" guys that can play the 3 or 4. McCosky seems to think there will be a bidding war for him to get him into summer camp.

A rout is a chaotic and disorderly retreat or withdrawal of troops from a battlefield, resulting in the victory of the opposing party, or following defeat, a collapse of discipline, or poor morale. A key feature of a true rout is that the routed forces abandon equipment, especially weapons.
A routed army often disintegrates into a state of "every man for himself" or sauve qui peut as the survivors flee for safety. A rout often results in much higher casualties for the retreating force than an orderly withdrawal. On many occasions, more soldiers are killed in the rout than in the actual battle. Normally, though not always, routs either end a battle or provide the moment the winner needs to win decisively a battle (or even campaign).
The opposite of a rout is a rally, in which a military unit that has been giving way and is on the verge of a rout, suddenly gathers itself and turns back to the offensive. More commonly, the over-matched force retires in good order without losing cohesion as a military unit.
The recommended reaction to an enemy's rout is to launch your reserves, especially reserve cavalry, in a pursuit. A pursuit, which is normally conducted without support on its flanks, is itself a dangerous operation, in the category of "all or nothing", since the pursuing force itself might be cut off and destroyed. Therefore, experience and judgment are required to recognize a rout and make the decision to conduct a pursuit.
Historically, lightly equipped soldiers such as auxiliaries, light cavalry, partisans or militia were important when pursuing a fast-moving, defeated enemy force and could often keep up the pursuit into the following day, causing the routed army heavy casualties or total dissolution. The slower moving heavy forces could then either seize objectives or pursue at leisure. However, with the advent of armoured warfare and blitzkrieg style operations, an enemy army could be kept more or less in a routed or disorganized state for days or weeks on end. In modern times, a routed formation will often cause a complete breakdown in the entire front, enabling the organized foe to attain a quick and decisive victory in the campaign. In the blitzkrieg warfare that characterized World War II, the French Army was decisively defeated in the Battle of Sedan (1940) opening a 20 kilometres (12 mi) gap in Allied lines into which Heinz Guderian poured his mechanized forces. German tanks kept the rout going, and the Allies were unable to stabilize the situation before the Wehrmacht occupied Paris and forced the capitulation of the French government.
Feigned routs may be used as a military deception to entice an enemy into pursuing the "retreating" force, with the intent of causing the enemy to abandon a strong defensive position or leading the enemy into an ambush. This carries some risk because a feigned rout can quickly turn into a real one.
In the Battle of Cowpens, Daniel Morgan's planned retreat of the unreliable forward militia was interpreted by the British commander Banastre Tarleton as a rout, as intended. In over-aggressively pressing the attack, the British lost cohesion and were overwhelmingly defeated in the resulting double envelopment by the Americans.
This feigned rout tactic had several benefits. It was a ruse de guerre that played off British expectations that an undisciplined militia would rout on contact, creating British overconfidence. The militia screened the main American force from view. By asking for only two volleys before the retreat, Morgan set an achievable goal for shaky and poorly trained militia facing British regulars. And it allowed the militia to remain intact for later parts of the battle.
Leading up to the French decisive victory at the Battle of Austerlitz, Napoleon ordered his forces to retreat. Desperate to lure the Allies into battle, Napoleon gave every indication in the days preceding the engagement that the French army was surrendering, even abandoning the dominant Pratzen Heights near Austerlitz.
It is thought that Breton cavalry performed a feigned rout at the Battle of Hastings.
Other uses of the term[edit]
A rout is a synonym for an overwhelming defeat as well as a verb meaning "to put to disorderly retreat" or "to defeat utterly" and is often used in sports to describe a blowout.
In law, a rout is a disturbance of the public peace by three or more persons, acting together in a manner that suggests an intention to riot, although they do not carry out the inferred act.
Rout is personified as the eponymous deity in Homer's Iliad as the cowardly son of Ares.
A rout is also one of several collective nouns for a group of snails.

Every day at the Baylor School of Medicine internship with Dr. Debra Palazzi '92 started bright and early at 9 am. Her positive and energetic manner more than made up for the early start. On the first day, she asked my fellow intern, Ajibike, and I why we wanted to be doctors. Then she told us her story and how she came to work at the esteemed Houston Texas Medical center. We spent the days rounding, which takes a lot more energy than one would think walking to the different corners of the gigantic hospital. We also managed to attend two conferences, one on the cross between infectious disease and orthopedics and another on Neglected Tropical diseases.
In addition to Dr. Palazzi, Infectious Disease fellow Dr. Chase also accompanied us and was a great resource. He explained every case to us, even with our limited knowledge, in a way that we understood. Sometimes, I felt that he was helping me study for my EEB 211 exam. They both really took time to make sure that we understood what we were seeing and what were the decisions being made.
One of the most interesting parts of the internship was actually witnessing a "meeting of the minds." I never knew how collaborative medicine was. For one case, there was a boy, about eleven years old, who had had cancer. He was now showing signs that it had returned and was present in his leg. Four doctors, his oncologist, another oncologist, an orthopedic surgeon, and Dr. Palazzi, the Infectious Disease specialist, all met to discuss this little boy's case and how to progress. I learned from this experience, what I am not sure a lot of pre-med students know, that it is extremely important to be able to work on a team and also to be a good communicator as a physician. Discussing whether or not to amputate a leg requires respect for one's colleagues, good listening skills, and the ability to express oneself clearly.
Overall I found my three days very pleasant and informative. I discovered how creative one must be to be a pediatrician, how collaborative the medical field is, and how creative people who work with children have to be. Dr. Palazzi and Dr. Chase were a pleasure, and I hope to share their passion for their job one day when I become a physician.

4 Tips to Cook Dinner Faster (Page 3)
Shortcut 2. Buy Prepped Vegetables
Time saved – 15 minutes
Often on the periphery of the produce area at the grocery store you'll find bags or boxes of vegetables that have already been washed, chopped, sliced or cooked. If you're in a time crunch, use them. Look for bags of broccoli florets (you'll save time chopping them from the whole head) or a shredded carrot-and-cabbage mix for a throw-together slaw. Opt for baby spinach over adult spinach. You can easily find it prewashed (time saver!) and you don't have to remove any of those pesky tough stems.


text: From The Free Press: Officially, the Red Wings do not start training camp until Sept. 15, but about a dozen couldn't wait and have opted to start early. They included goalie-of-the-future Jimmy Howard, elite defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom and veteran broadcaster Mickey Redmond. Robert Lang was at the Troy Sports Center, too, as were Kris Draper, Mathieu Schneider, Andreas Lilja, Chris Chelios, Niklas Kronwall and Tomas Holmstrom, among others. Good to see the guys are ready to go. This season will be very interesting. With the CBA and the losses of Yzerman, Shanny, Fischer, and Legace, how will they make out? The way this season plays out for the Wings could potentially define their status in the league for years to come. Gone are the free spending days that helped the Wings be favorites year after year. There is new blood, and a new captain (probably Lidstrom). There are young guys who needed to sign with the big club, or be lost to waivers, who will finally get a chance to see if they fit the puzzle. Will the team still rely on puck control? Will they find the physical edge of their game that had been missing for years? Will Hasek's groin hold up? I can't wait.

605? steering box
Considering power steering on my 41 Pontiac.
See a lot of comments about 605 sectors for these old cars. If the 605 is the preferred upgrade, what cars did they come on?
I see no problem in hooking up the steering column side. Double D adapters, etc. But don't know much about the other side. the 41 has the original linkage (ball in socket center link, which I think was common through the 50's) rear steer. Are there common diameter/taper/spline counts so a later box will use my pitman arm? Or do you modify the other end by moving the ball to the new arm?
Any help is appreciated.
Found this on Google search. Looks like they put the 605 guts into a tri-5 chevy box housing for extra length. But there is a chart for donor cars for 605
If I read the chart correctly, that 605 is what I used in a rod 25 years ago. If so, there were many different styles of pitman arms that fit that spline. Lengths, angles, etc. I doubt the spline on your box is as big as the PS, but it's worth a look.
Be careful of who you deal with
Read company reviews- check out a rack.
re: 605 steering box.
Very informative link, unfortunately, about half of it went over my head. Wasnt clear if all that interchange data was for cars that came with 605 boxes, or could be modified with them. Also the reference to the 800 box???
Maybe I need to rephrase the question. My 41 pontiac has linkage common on GMs till the late 50's. Is there a simple conversion to power steering?
Didn't understand the comment about the rack at all??
Can someone light a candle for me? I seem to be lost in a fog.
I believe the interchange is to show which cars use a 605. Sorry to confuse you with the 55-57 chevy application where you have to make a 605 "longer" to fit those 5-7 cars.
You need to see if you have the room for a 605, plus; which way the 605 arm needs to be, either facing forward or rearwards. The 605 arm can be repositioned on the shaft, plus like I said, different GM cars used different shaped arms so you can usually find an arm to suit your needs.
I prefer a PS box on a big car rather than a rack....I am old school and I like the no-nonsence durability of a box. I have read too many problems on racks for 50's big cars.
re: 605? steering box
Thanks F&J. With that in mind I read it again. Do I understand, All of them are 605 boxes, with the hollander number (and list of cars) interchangeable with each other. Each group represents some minor difference? Front/rear steer, etc.? So if I look at one box from each group, I'll know what I have to work with.
I think mine is called a rear steer. box is behind the linkage and the pitman arm points to the front.
Maybe I need to look at the bigger picture. I'm modifying the front end for disc brakes, using 63 - 68 spindles, which require modifying my outer tie rods.
Maybe I should be looking for rear steer cars with the same track width and using it all - tie rods, center link, idler arm, pitman, and sector? Or is there a significant difference in frame widths that rules that out?
I think even though something like the differance between the tri-5 chevy and pontiacs are front (chevy) and rear steer(Pontiac), the gearbox still mounts behind the steering assembly. So I don't think your really limited to a rear steer box. Both the pitman arms point out to the front of the car.
Back to the spindle deal, double check with what Scarebird had for the 58 spindles, I know on the tri-5 Pontiac kits, they now update to tapered bearings. If that was the case using the 58 spindles you may not need to shorten the inner toe rod ends. But that conversion was for tri-5 Pontiacs, not 41's.
I won't get my 41 over to my house for at least a few more weeks, i'll check it over than to see if the 605 box may be possible.
I think you are getting ahead of your project. You should get the later discs & spindles on if that's what you want.
Then one of you guys needs to take a look to see what room is there for the 605. You also need to look at the idler arm you have. What you NEED to end up with is a pitman arm that has the same length (center-to-center) as the idler arm that ends up on the car. They need to swing in the same arc and same angle.
Don't worry too much about which donor car the 605 comes from, except some builders prefer the earlier ones that have a flare type hose fitting rather than metric boxes with O-ring fittings.
As I recall, I think there are 4 positions that the pitman can go on the shaft. Either the shaft, or the inside splines on the pitman has 4 "missing" splines placed 90* apart, and the other mating part has one "thick-siamesed", spline. So, you can get that locating thick spline to fit in 4 positions. (My memory is fading on this, Sorry.) So, you can switch the arm to front or rear steer. Just make sure that you end up with a setup that steers left when you turn left
Sounds like a nightmare, but if you start by seeing if the 605 can fit, that would help.
If it was mine, I'd try to see if the box will fit. Then hopefully it can fit where the STOCK idler arm can be kept. By that I mean the 605 pitman needs to match the length & angles of the Original STOCK manual box. You need to try to find a 605 pitman that mirrors the idler on your car, same length, same end that fits the link. If you got lucky in that, You can keep the stock link. This would be the best situation IMO. Then you can adapt tierods easily to the later spindles.
If you can't use the stock idler and link:....As far as getting the pitman arm AND the idler from the same donor car...a big yes, because they should match in length. However you need to see if that idler can be made to fit the chassis.
Centerlinks could be difficult, because some 605 pitmans have either a tapered hole on the end or a joint with a tapered stud. Then you need to deal with the multitude of different centerlinks to find one that has the correct lengths, tapers, whatever!
You mentioned "track width" in picking a donor for centerlink & tierods, but don't forget that that donor may have it's box & idler mounted more inboard or outboard, in a place that you can't mount yours due to chassis limitations.
re: 605? steering box
Thanks F&J. those are the kind of details I need to know when I start looking at changes.
Chieftan, should have guessed you'd be on here. You know exactly where I'm headed with this. Once I get started on the front end I may change everything from the spindle nut to the horn ring. Might as well look at it that way instead of piecemeal. You never mentioned scarebird might have someway to put tapered bearings on the 58 spindle. Thought I had to go to 63 for that, so I didn't get the spindles with the arms. I can check that out. Might save modifying the tie rod ends.
Where are you on the 55? Got the control arms, spindles, springs and shocks in? Got the linkage hooked up?
Wating for parts is driving me nuts. I want to put something together NOW!
so I can plan on how I'll take it apart and do it right next weekend. (lol)
I have it all in and hooked up except for the shocks. I have to get it on the alignment rack and double check my upper mount is in the right place before I put shocks in it.
The reason I got the 63 spindles in the first place at the time his 58 kit still used the drum hub. Now he has changed stuff around, it might be a differant story.
I checked the p/s box I have and the tri-5 splines are too small.
I found an old e-mail I had where the guy used a 605 box and pitman arm. He basically removed the ball stud from the old style box pitman arm and installed it on the 605 pitman arm. I can forward it too you if you like.
re: 605? steering box
Please do. I want to explore my options before I go to the work of shortening the tie rod ends to fit the current box.
email is email@example.com
home is email@example.com
first one is more reliable and should show up both places. don
I sent it to you. But the reason for shortening the inner was because of the longer steering arms with the 63 spindles, did you get steering arms with your 58 spindles, if they are shorter, the inners may not need shortened.
re: 605? steering box
Didn't get the 58 spindles. Just the upper and lower arms. Getting 63 spindles for the tapered bearings.
Did you ever figure out if it got wider, hub to hub?
No, I'll try tonight.
I take it your going with the kit that I have that uses the drum hub and 11" rotors?

A broken water line Monday inside the Historic Courthouse in downtown Hendersonville appears to have destroyed technical equipment outside the Commissioners Meeting Room, officials said, though the Henderson County Heritage Museum directly below it was spared irreplaceable damage.
A broken water line Monday inside the Historic Courthouse in downtown Hendersonville appears to have destroyed technical equipment outside the Commissioners Meeting Room, officials said, though the Henderson County Heritage Museum directly below it was spared irreplaceable damage.
The pipe burst just after 10 a.m. Monday in a chaseway on the top floor of the courthouse, and water gushed straight down into the second-floor office of County Public Information Officer Christina DeStefano, where the county's audio-visual room is located.
County Engineer Marcus Jones said the electronic equipment there was "probably damaged beyond repair," though damage assessment throughout the building will continue today.
From the AV room, the water rushed down to the museum, soaking the room where artifacts from a World War I exhibit had just been moved out to make way for a new exhibit about the history of education in the county.
"The museum was not hit so hard," museum Executive Director Bette Carter said. "It just got one room that was almost empty anyway because we were going to change exhibits ... thank heavens."
Carter said all exhibit items in the museum are insured, but their value is priceless.
There were still some World War I-era model airplanes inside the damaged room that were loaned to the museum by the WNC Air Museum, Carter added. When the building's alarm system went off after the pipe burst, Carter said, employee Gale Henry, the museum's weekend supervisor who also comes in on Monday and Tuesday to do computer software work, "came flying outside" to get help from county staff to move the remaining items out of the room before they got soaked.
Jones said Monday afternoon the exact cause of the broken pipe still was unknown, and that a restoration company was helping assess the damage inside the 1905 courthouse, which underwent a $10.8 million renovation completed in 2008.
"It appears to be a failed plumbing fitting," Jones said. "Why it failed, I'm not sure. Whether it was related to the weather or not, we don't know. That would probably be a fair conclusion that it had something to do with the (recent cold) temperatures; however, we've had a lot more severe temperatures since this courthouse has been renovated."
Jones said that while the exhibit room in the museum was affected by water, it appears no damage was done to the floor itself, and he acknowledged "we were very fortunate" that no artifacts were destroyed.
Because of the damage to the audio-visual room, however, officials said this week's scheduled commissioners meeting at 9 a.m. Wednesday will be moved to the King Street Meeting Room in the county Administrative Building at 100 N. King St.
Administrative offices in the Historic Courthouse, meanwhile, are expected to reopen this morning, Jones said.

The constant column value used to be detected during schema definition based on the assumption of the name being enclosed in single-quote.

My Interview on TWiT Photo :: Video
I recently had the pleasure of being a guest on the TWiT Photo podcast with hosts Catherine Hall and Leo Laporte. I suppose with a name like TWiT I was the obvious choice to be a guest. I'm hoping to get to California at some point to see their brand new studio. Check out their weekly podcast here. Also, I'll be part of a panel discussing photo sharing on the web. That will be live today. I'm sure it will be recorded for future viewing.
Catherine is hosting a webcast tomorrow (Thurs. 8/18) at 3pm EST. I'll be joining the panel discussing copyright and sharing photography on the web. The panel is full of some amazing folks like photographers and bloggers Trey Ratcliff, Frederick Van, and Nicole Young. We'll also be joined by Mike Linksvayer (VP of creative Commons), Christa Laser (specialist in copyright law), and Brian Rose who is the photos community manager over at Google+. I'm sure we'll be discussing, among other things, the hotly debated G+ TOS that have divided opinions from many in the photography industry. It's going to be good to hear from a manager of the community there.
You can watch the live broadcast here today (Thursday 8/18) – www.keithbarrett.tv
It's nice to see quite a few of the photogs I follow appear on TWiT Photo, thanks for sharing the recording! Tomorrow's webcast sounds like it's going to be jam packed with tons of helpful insight and well-rounded discussion, looking forward to tuning in.
Tomorrow 8/18, right? Don't want to miss it!
Great interview, Zack, but the presenters talked over you too much! Thanks for sharing…
this is a great series, but i notice that you folks ask a question then talk over during the answer. great questions, but allow space for the answer.
Does that Leo guy know anything about photography? It certainly doesn't appear that way.
Zack, always impressed with you level of candid-ness-ability, great interview. (btw, love the harley comment… had mine for 30+ years, as John Housman said years ago "I earned it"!) Appreciate you and your work, best wishes as always.
I just finished watched the re-run. That was a very motivational and inspirational talk! And your family was on vacation? You're too generous, Zack! But I must say thank you.
PS – I have to agree with Graham and Neil that the hosts did chat it up a bit too much. Oh well, it was an exceptional webcast in the end.
Zack's information is SO valuable as always! I love Leo's enthusiasm too, but he has a chronic problem of cutting off a guest's comments unfortunately… Gotta take the good with the bad.
I totally agree on the "you have to earn it" subject. I even want to add something to it: "you have to outgrow the gear that you want to replace."
I have learned so much from you Zack… Your realism to every shot has been great for me. You have great vision & calm. At least you appear to be, ha. You are very humble to the industry which causes me to jump & pay attention whenever you're on video teaching or an interview.
Cheers to you…. YOU ROCK!
Thank you for all that you do.
(I) am grateful to have you around.
Hey Buddy! Thanks for representing on this!
The link you have for the webcast looks broken. I typed in http://www.justin.tv/keithbarrett and got the right link.
Zack, I am glad you are starting to blog again, I have missed seeing your inspirational work. Thank you for your humbleness as I have taken a few of your quotes and posted them on my walls as a reminder. The best reminder is incorporating personal projects into my work so I don't take the money making avenue too seriously and get burned out.
I look forward to your posts!
The hosts were super annoying, don't ask a question if you won't wait for the answer. Thanks for sharing an hour.
Jesus came up with "many are called but few are chosen".
nice bro. thanks for spreading the knowledge. i enjoyed listening while shooting trimmings and tassels at my day job
Great to see you doing your own work. It's an inspiration to the street photographer in me. Makes me want the X100 even more.
At the first break on this video it's hilarious the first questions that came in via twitter etc.. was "What hardware do you use" The typical nob newbie stupid questions. When are nobs going to get it 80% of what your doing has little to do with the gear… Especially if you dont even know "HOW" to use it or apply it well… The gear only makes a different if you have learned the how to use first "Then" and only "Then" will it make a small difference. Gear will never make you a better photographer.. When are they ever going to get this through their heads.. The flicker commentary was spot on as well as the commentary on "Critique" via forums etc..
This why I really have liked Zacks approach to things he may show a few things on "Strobist" or Pocket flash use but doesnt imply that it should be use for "Everything" He isnt doing it for "Product endorsement" for canon Nikon etc. He shows Studio heads outside when its the "Correct" thing to use for the job and not trying to Stick 5 canon 580's on a stick to and slave them when its totally unnecessary.. When will show you how to do that if you "NEED" too.. In doing this Zack shows honestly what its like in the real working world of shooting for a living. Not the flash banging bus "Wow Whoopie" look at the latest craze of gimmicky toys I have to show off and play with versus the Here this is what we did and "Why we did for this situation to get the JOB DONE" in the most efficient effective timely manner because time is money and subject dont like sitting around waiting for batteries to recharge or recycle nor trigger to fire or not fire.
Clients want to walk in and out quickly and as painlessly as possible. Zack has shown the real "Diversity" of shooting paid jobs and not the "Buy this and use it this way for everything" way to be a photographer.. He is just like me I will shoot with a profoto head if need be and need the power to over come ambient daylight in the 3pm sun in the daytime to get a shot. As well as have no problem throwing a beat up old vivitar 285 in a back corner or shelf to open up an area with some light. To shooting with cheap power packs and heads or old ones in a dirty factory job were you dont want you nice studio packs getting filthy full of soot and debri… He shows what its like out there in the working field.. Not all of us get free pocket flashes or rolling cases that are brand new from manufactures like some of the Seminar folks do from BH and all those companies.
We buy our own gear we have to maintain it and justify the expense of the items. Zack is honest about these things when so many out there portray a image "Oh look I use the DSI 3409 with a BRT xy attachment" along with three of the xxx why and zzz modifiers that look "BRAND NEW" and shinny" Go to any real full time working commercial shooter and take long look at their gear most of it has tape all over it with writing or is scuffed up because they use it day in and day out.
Enough said thanks Zack for being real….. Tellin it like it is and for the goatee promotion for the rest of us..
Like this!
At time line 1:01:30 one world "AMEN!" Thank god someone the masses are listening to finally had the backbone to say it and tell the truth about the idiots with a brand new MarkII blah blah and 1.2 lens and using them on AWB and 14 zone autofocus with Apeture priority and have no business shooting with such gear….. Also the part about one paying their dues "BEFORE" calling themselves a photographer. It really does take 10 years of experience to be a well rounded experienced photographer and not a "I can take tack sharp photo of my neighbors kids with a good histogram" and then call my self a photographer now way of thinking. Sure you pissing off a lot of people zack but hey I give you major points for telling the truth keeping it real and saying what needs to be said. Especially in this day in age when everyone is to be so so politically correct and "Branded" with fancy fonts. I often see so much better talent that comes from some amateur with a point and shoot that cares nothing about taking photos and occasionally post those photos run circles around those self proclaimed photogs with the best of gear that read specs sheets day in and day out. Anyone can read a spec sheet but few can take good photos.
2nd note I see many dont post comments here as on many of the other highly popular photog seminar teachers leadrer or what not. Here you only see a couple of few honest comments. Were on those other photog guru's sites you see a gang of comments "Oh bob your the best" "Oh bob I just love your light" "Oh bob I need to wipe my nose because it got something on it" type of comments. So I hope you dont think that in getting lest comments that are all pucker up that you think your not as popular or what you doing is not as desired. I say it is a sign that those that read you blog and post here are actually thinking and not posting just Puckered sweet fake comments. What you doing Zack is right tell it like it is… Tell the truth… Be honest… Thats what makes you one of the only ones out of the 10 or so photographer seminar guys I actually have any respect for that is not a Product endorser, Ego seeking, Sell photoshop books,or sell seminar tours types out there. I been around doing this for a living for 17 years now. Back in the days of dip and dunk snip tests polaroids with balcar packs that weighed 40lbs and mono heads did not even exist. When there was wired syncs and we never even thought about wireless triggers. God back then we we used cable releases with a mirror up..
Brilliant interview, Zack. You covered such a lot of ground in just over an hour. Thank you
Still about half way through, but thought I'd mention – on the Laforet topic, this is very funny:
As usual, Zack, it is a pleasure to listen to you for an hour. You have a talent for mixing humor with unpalatable truths. And I'm so happy you have an x100, because I LOVE your street photography.
Keep doing it all, I'll come to the blog every time.
Zack, I need to listen to you speak for an hour everyday. Here lately I need the reminder that my photography is about me and my camera and not the "photoshop sauce" everyone else seems to be squirting on lately. I've been brought back to reality and re-inspired.
Zack. Thanks for the inspiration and positive attitude.
You're a good man Zack Arias. You always make me think. Thanks for everything! -mM
Great interview my friend. Love what you're putting out there. Keep it up.
And I know that Catherine's such a great person having interviewed a few times and getting to know her when filming The Longest Day. She did get "Super 8" wrong though. Spielberg was just the Exec Producer. JJ Abrams directed it.
I do not know you, but what a nice interview. You struck a nice tone of artistic intensity with kindness that you did not have to try to strike you were just trying be be your honest best interview self and you came off very well. NIce job. Your site is unbelievable too. what an amazing about of information you have let for people I have not checked but I hope you took nothing off when transferring from your old blog. You sound like you are doing really really well now and thats awesome. It is so nice to see a generous soul with a passion making it work and having the right set of factors going so you can see how much your kindness has come back at you in multiples. Cheers to a good interview I have been looking for places and people on the web to learn in an smart way about the beginnings of doing some of my own camera work myself and I really appreciate an entrepreneur who has all the pressures, that I know they have, who still has the integrity to not treat their artistic business as a zero sum game. The interview only reinforced what brought me around to your site in the first place. Cheers Rob
Thanks for sharing this Zack! There is one honest confession i have to do to you Zack…that 3 out of the 5 days, i crave to hear you talk. You, your style, your on-the-face honest comments and advices…i just crave for them. I am a little birdie types who loses track all the time and need someone to shoo me away in the right direction or else will be caught by a pet for supper. Thanks for all the generous work you do to save our lives Zack! I love you!
I'm glad I found your blog. The honesty is refreshing, and a reminder that my car is only as good as the nut behind the wheel. Thanks.
sorry, but just wanted to clarify to the girl co-host… JJ Abrams (LOST, Alias, Cloverfield, Fringe, the new Star Trek films) was the writer/director/creator on Super8 and responsible for all the awesomeness lighting wise… Spielberg was the Producer
but it was JJ's "ode-to" his fave Spielberg films of his childhood
– an obnoxious JJ Fan
Thank you for sharing, you are truly inspirational and refreshingly honest. Our industry needs more people like you! keep on keeping on!
Great video, love your honesty and approach
First thing Im going to get a great portrait of my parents… Secondly that interview that dude would not shut up and listen. I wanted to listen to Zack speak not some dude about a 5d mk2 for the 11 millionth time.
Thirdly thanks so much for the inspirational words…. Hope your online break was nice and relaxing…

1818 1/2RL New Spain (Texas) Jola Half Real, Large Planchet AU58 PCGS....Click the image to load the highest resolution version.
Claim Item:Share this lot
Finest Certified 1818 Texas Jola, Near-Mint1818 1/2RL New Spain (Texas) Jola Half Real, Large Planchet AU58 PCGS. Breen-1081. The Texas jolas were made by José Antonio de la Garza of San Fernando de Bexar. While that locale may not ring a bell, its current name surely will: San Antonio.
San Fernando de Bexar was the capital of Texas (then a province of New Spain) during the 1810-1821 War of Independence. Apparently, community leaders prevailed upon the governor of the province, Lt. Col. Manuel Prado, to authorize Manuel Barrera to coin 8,000 copper coins to facilitate commerce in March 1817. No specimens are currently known.
In May 1817, Prado was succeeded by Antonio Martinez as governor and military commander of the province of Texas. In December 1818, he granted the request of José Antonio de la Garza, the local postmaster, to mint 500 pesos' worth of "small change in copper coins called Jolas, which shall circulate only through the town with values of one half of a real each." This amounts to 8,000 pieces authorized. In a town with a population of about 2,000 people, this would have had a significant impact on relieving the shortage of small change.
The petition granted also stated that "these shall be engraved with the first letters of my name and surname and the year of this date." Garza was also required to redeem Barerra's coins issued the previous year in exchange for his own. Perhaps this exchange was so successful that no Barrera jolas survived. While significant parts of the United States were at one point Spanish territory, the Texas jola is a unique issue in that it is the only known Spanish Colonial coin made in what is now the United States of America.
The de la Garza jolas first came to the attention of collectors when one was sent to The Numismatist, which published a line drawing of the piece in 1903, but was unable to provide any information to its owner. A historian knew of them in 1892 but this knowledge did not make it to numismatic circles for more than half a century. Meanwhile, the house in which de la Garza may have minted these coins was destroyed in 1912, so all information about this issue is likely to come from the coins themselves and documents in the Bexar Archives. It has been speculated that the star on the reverse was the inspiration for the "lone star" that became perhaps the best known symbol of Texas.
In 1959, a group of approximately 60 specimens was discovered during excavation work along the San Antonio River. The area of the find was once a 19th century campground used by cowboys. A few others have been discovered since, virtually all of which have been dug. Apparently they did not circulate long, so most are not greatly worn but, having been buried, most do show corrosion. Katherine Jaeger and Dave Bowers, in their recently published reference 100 Greatest American Medals and Tokens, indicate that "fewer than 100" are known of both the large and small planchet variations, and it is known that many of the survivors are impounded in bank and museum collections. Had the hoard of 60 pieces not been unearthed in 1959, this issue would be essentially uncollectible today.
The 1818 New Spain jolas appeal to Colonial coin collectors, enthusiasts of Mexican and Spanish Colonial issues, as well as Texas collectors regardless of their numismatic specialty. Even though these are rare coins, several variations have been noted, including large and small planchet coins, and a number of different dies were used. The sideways fraction in the center of the obverse stands for one-half real, which was a familiar Spanish-Mexican coin of the time.
This is by far the finest certified example of this challenging issue, inclusive of all varieties. Most of the original luster remains and the devices are sharply defined. The gray patina seen over each side has a significant reddish undertone on the obverse. The star on the reverse is especially well defined. As a Large Planchet variety, this is the finest thus certified by either service by 18 grading points, and an AU53 Small Planchet is the best certified example known of that particular variant (11/07). The NGC and PCGS population data for the 1818 jola coppers has changed little over the past few years, giving testimony to the minuscule number of survivors available to collectors today. Listed on page 74 of the 2008 Guide Book. Population: 1 in 58, 0 finer (11/07).

"Vista Capable" Class Action Suit Against Microsoft Moves Forward
Jason Mick
February 25, 2008 1:31 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
A lawsuit against Microsoft, alleging it intentionally deceived by labeling underpowered PCs "Vista Capable" wins class action status
reported earlier this month
on a pending lawsuit
, which sought
class action against Microsoft for allegedly knowingly deceiving consumers
by labeling underpowered computers "Vista Capable", when the computers could only run a bare bones version of Vista lacking many features. The suit alleged that Microsoft's practice was designed to increase sales at the user's expense.
While the suit seemed somewhat tenuous due to the extensive easy to reach online documentation on system specifics needed and levels of capability, it was strengthened by leaked internal emails from Microsoft which painted a picture of many Microsoft employees and executives venting frustration about the program, which
they believed was inaccurate
Several employees claimed to be personally affected by the claims, and said the management involved, "
really botched this." Wrote one Microsoft employee,
Mike Nash,
"I PERSONALLY got burnt ... Are we seeing this from a lot of customers? ... I now have a $2,100 e-mail machine."
A federal judge,
U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman,
granted the suit class action status
, but slightly narrowed its scope. She ruled that a class action could proceed with the intent of determining whether Microsoft's stickers caused an artificial demand for PCs during the 2006 holiday shopping season, and inflated the prices of computers which couldn't be upgraded to Windows Vista, when it
released in January 2007
Ironically neither of the two people filing the original lawsuit had took part in Microsoft's upgrade program. However, despite not purchasing Windows Vista, they argued that they were still hurt as they had to pay a higher price for their PCs while getting a computer that could only run a basic version of Windows Vista.
The Judge did say that if the pair added a named plaintiff who participated in the "Express Upgrade" program they could pursue the class action claims concerning the limited functionality as well.
One of Windows Vista's most touted features is
the Aero interface
. However, it takes considerable overhead to run, and thus many of the machines labeled "Windows Vista," were unable to support it and could only run Windows Vista in a more graphically barren mode.
Microsoft did not comment on the suit, but may appeal the ruling.

So here's the low down on what this thing actually does. The sticky buddy is a washable lint roller. Lint rollers are necessary for people that have animals or lots of dark clothing since it is extremely easy to spot lint on darker clothing or furniture. The lint roller is coated with a certain type of gel that is very sticky when dry, and completely slippery and washable when a little bit of water is added.
This thing is very good, specifically for the following applications:
The roller uses a specific type of silicone gel that gets very soft and smooth when it is submerged under water. If you use a bit of soap and water the little pieces of dirt. It is ok for keeping the house clean but its most useful application is on clothing of dark colored cloth furniture. A true lifesaver for a business man or cat/dog owner.

ILGear.com is live at the Whitman's Sampler Independence Classic, where three Division I matchups are on tap for this sunny Saturday afternoon. Syracuse and St. John's kick off the action, followed by Villanova and Penn and then Lehigh and Penn State after that.
Before that, the crowd was treated to a high school matchup between St. Louis Country Day out of Missouri and St. Albans of the IAC, a game the Bulldogs won by a score of 9-3.
The sun is shining, the teams are fired up and there's a bunch of cool stuff to see in the vendor area. See that below, and make sure you are staying tuned to InsideLacrosse.com for full coverage of these games throughout the day.
