God, my King, thy might confessingAuthor: Richard Mant (1824)Tune: STUTTGART Published in 119 hymnals | ||
1 God, my King, Thy might confessing,
Ever will I bless Thy Name;
Day by day Thy throne addressing,
Still will I Thy praise proclaim.
2 Honor great our God befitteth;
Who His Majesty can reach?
Age to age His works transmitteth,
Age to age His power shall teach.
3 They shall talk of all Thy glory,
On Thy might and greatness dwell,
Speak of Thy dread acts the story,
And Thy deeds of wonder tell.
4 Nor shall fail from memory's treasure,
Works by love and mercy wrought,
Works of love surpassing measure,
Works of mercy passing thought.
5 Full of kindness and compassion,
Slow to anger, vast in love,
God is good to all creation;
All His works His goodness prove.
6 All Thy works, O Lord, shall bless Thee;
Thee shall all Thy saints adore;
King supreme shall they confess Thee,
And proclaim Thy sovereign power.

Rip audio CDs and save tracks to any audio format!
Backup your music collection into compressed AAC, MP3, WMA, or WAV format, or create a completely lossless FLAC library in just a few clicks:
Backup Your CD Collection into a Variety of Music Formats
Magic Audio Converter and CD Ripper offers a quick and easy way to back up your entire music collection. With one-click CD ripping and format conversion, the tool will back up your Audio CDs into a bunch of audio files in AAC, MP3, OGG, WAV, WMA about a dozen other formats, or produce you a completely lossless music library in the FLAC format.
Rip Audio CDs
Magic Audio Converter and CD Ripper makes ripping an audio CD an easy job. Just insert a CD, and the program will automatically retrieve information about the album and track information from the Free DB database. Select all tracks you'd like to rip and specify output format, and Magic Audio Converter and CD Ripper will do the rest automatically.
Convert Between Audio Formats
Convert music between all popular mainstream audio formats! Magic Audio Converter and CD Ripper can accept Audio CDs, individual files or entire folders full or audio files in a wide range of audio formats, and produce a music library in a format of your choice. With audio format conversion, you can quickly turn a bunch of tunes in MP3, WMA, FLAC, OGG and other formats to a single audio format.
Play Your Music Collection Everywhere
Not all media players are created equal. Some may prefer AAC or WMA files, while others are strictly MP3. Apple iPod players prefer AAC, M4A, M4B and ALAC formats, delivering the highest audio quality. With Magic Audio Converter and CD Ripper, you can convert your Audio CDs directly into the format preferred by your portable player, skipping intermediary steps and avoiding the use of third-party software.
Manage and Organize Your Music Library
The abundance of audio devices is one of the reasons you need this tool. If you download music from the Internet, you may have your music collection scattered between MP3, WMA, FLAC, OGG and a bunch of other formats. Eventually, you'll end up with a collection that won't be fully playable anywhere except your PC. To listen to your music using your favorite portable player, you'll need your collection to be in a single format supported by that player. Use this audio converter to manage your growing music collection and keep it organized!
Play Your CDs on Your iPod.Pay Nothing to iTunes!
iPods don't play CDs. That's a fact of life. While you can always download the same songs from iTunes, why paying for music you already own when you can simply rip Audio CDs directly into an iPod-supported format? Transfer your favorite music from CDs to Apple iPod without losing quality or paying for iTunes downloads! Apple fans will appreciate the support of native iPod formats, including AAC, M4A, M4B and ALAC, combining near original sound quality and compact size. In addition, if you have music files that won't play in your iPod, Magic Audio Converter and CD Ripper will quickly convert them into the 'right' format in just a few clicks.
Lossless Back Up for Your CD Collection
Magic Audio Converter and CD Ripper comes equipped with a range of lossless audio codecs, allowing you to back up your entire CD collection without losing audio quality. The FLAC format is universally accepted and ideal for long-term storage, while ALAC-encoded files are still lossless and directly playable on your iPod. The fast and high-quality CD audio grabber works closely together with the program's audio conversion engine, enabling you to create complete copies of your audio CD's. Rip CD audio tracks into a variety of popular audio formats or rip the entire audio CD into a single file accompanied by a CUE file. If absolute audio quality is what you're after, make use of one of the lossless formats such as APE or FLAC. If disk space (or player memory) is of major concern, rip audio CDs directly into one of the compressed formats such as ACC, MP3, MP4, WMA or OGG.
Built-in Tag Editor
Magic Audio Converter and CD Ripper sports an integrated tag editor, letting you edit metadata tags for each file before conversion. ID3v1.1, ID3v2, APE 1.0, APE 2.0, OGG and WMA tags are fully supported.
Easy Operation
Magic Audio Converter and CD Ripper is extremely easy to use. Its clean and intuitive user interface speaks 12 different languages, making it easy for everyone to use.
Batch Operation and Playlist Support

Aww, jeez. >_< I just checked and Runaway has two tom hits not marked. Sorry.
What's the artist on Runaway? I'll still put it on the list. Hell, Bat Country, which is official DLC, has two cymbal hits charted as toms.
I obviously won't maintain this list forever, especially with the advent of RBN 2.0, but I'll maintain it for the next few months.

And I think The Wargasm - Jigsaw Man was charted pro as well, but can't confirm right now.

Ooo I bought one or both of the Shazam songs! Awesome!
Gamertag: Macello
Random note: I don't know who authored it and I'm at work so I can't check, but I was ecstatic to discover last night that Ring Capacity by Kirby Krackle had pro drums authored (especially down near the end of the song where they're REALLY obvious).
You can see the author on the music page: http://www.rockband.com/songs/UGC_5003845

Um, looking through our files I think that Deliver Us does NOT have pro drums charted. Could you pull that from our list?
If I find others I'll let you know. Might have a careful look this weekend.

For what it's worth, RBN authors, this list is basically my holy grail for future RBN purchases. Basic drums= just not as fun.

The good news is that it looks like just about every author has been charting pro drums since they could, so we probably don't have to worry about too many non-pro songs coming out in the future. There are a few authors that aren't on this list yet that we should check (has anyone played a recent song by Noble Rhythm Ozone, or Wavegroup?).

HEAD IN THE CLOUD: Microsoft researcher and "life logger" Gordon Bell considers cloud computing to be a new chapter in the eponymous Bell's Law, which describes how different approaches to computing arrive, evolve and eventually die out (or at least fade into the background).

The idea of cloud computing is to make all the information and services run in data centers around the world available via the Web. The reality of this is daunting. Data centers built by different businesses, government entities and research institutions are not inherently designed for sharing, and not all information can (or should) be available to anyone with access to a Web browser.
Many people think that as mobile, connected devices proliferate and broadband access expands, the cloud-computing model will prevail because it enables access to data and apps without the need for a lot of storage or processing power on the devices themselves.
Perhaps the foremost of those people is Gordon Bell, a principal researcher with Microsoft Research and a veteran "life logger," who spoke with Scientific American about what distinguishes cloud computing from the other types of Web services, why scientists need to get on board with the cloud model, and why someone would want to store a lifetime of memories in the digital abyss.
Bell considers cloud computing to be a new chapter in the eponymous Bell's Law, which he formulated in 1972 to describe how different approaches to computing arrive, evolve and eventually die out (or at least fade into the background). These new approaches come along roughly every decade and promise to make computers cheaper and more accessible. In the 1960s the mainframe introduced distributed computing and dumb terminals into the workplace. This was followed by minicomputers that essentially made mainframe capabilities available to smaller businesses. PCs followed, extending the reach of computing into the home and eventually allowing the Internet to grow in prominence. Most recently, wireless gadgets have allowed us to take computing with us wherever we go. The "cloud" is poised to take computing to the next level, according to Bell.
Although Bell has been working for Microsoft Research for nearly two decades, he makes a point that the views expressed in this interview are his alone and not those of his employer.
[An edited transcript of the interview follows.]
How do you define "cloud computing"?
It is the next computing platform as described by Bell's Law of computer class formation. Like all new platforms, we can look at it in terms of the four functional components: storage, computational ability, network and user interface. With cloud computing the emphasis is on storage and networking to enable wide-scale, 24-by-seven access to data needed for transactions—scientific, financial or otherwise.
What distinguishes it from earlier hardware, network, application and data-hosting services?
In some ways nothing. The cloud has evolved from the large number of distributed servers that hosted Web content. What is different is the scale of these servers—tens of thousands of computers consuming 50 megawatts of power and hosting thousands of customers. Instead of each customer maintaining their own isolated servers, a hosting company is selling access to their servers as a service. The customers share computer systems, power, data-center space and maintenance services.
At what stage are we in the evolution of cloud services?
Amazon was first to use a cloud-computing model for their business and now is the leader in providing cloud services to other businesses. Entrepreneurs are exploiting Amazon's Web services, Microsoft's Windows Azure hosting platform and other cloud services in order to start up companies because of the zero capital equipment requirement. Payment is by credit card, and you pay as you go.

Discuss climate change impact.
A new bill leaves little scope for dissent on GMOs
by Savvy Soumya Mishra
If the nationwide furore over Bt brinjal was driven by the fear of unsafe food being pushed down the throat, the proposed Biotechnology Regulatory Authority of India (BRAI) bill goes a step further to silence all opposition. The bill will bring about changes in regulating the research, transport, import, manufacture and use of genetically modified (GM) products in the country.
Spiralling prices of pulses have shown India's dependence on imports. Pulses are integral to India's diet but not its food policy. As a result, supply cannot meet demand. What are the consequences and solutions?
by Savvy Soumya Mishra
Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has come out in support of the verdict on Bt-brinjal given here today by Jairam Ramesh, minister of state (independent charge) for environment and forests.
Dark brown seeds pointed at both ends resemble the kind of wild seeds growing just anywhere that children would collect to play with. Only, this seed is one of the rare and nutritious foods losing out to the rush for market food. To the Mahadeo Koli and Thakar tribals in the rain-shadow areas of Sahyadri hills, this millet is known as batu . The agriculture department of Ahmednagar district of Maharashtra has no records of this crop, and the local agriculture universities have not been able to put a scientific name to it.
The steady disappearance of the world's biodiversity had been recorded earlier, but the problem reached scary heights in the late 1980s. The loss during this decade was described by experts as "the most catastrophic" in the last 65 million years! It was also becoming quite obvious by then, that these resources were the fodder for a booming market...
Sahyadris have been documenting the changing climate for 40 years

Anti-GM groups say expert panel acted under pressure
by Savvy Soumya Misra
A coalition of organizations opposed to genetically modified food in India has written to the minister of state for environment and forests seeking withdrawal of clearance given to Bt brinjal. The Coalition for GM-free India alleged the expert committee that cleared the genetically modified brinjal for commercial cultivation in the country was neither impartial nor thorough.
New Delhi, October 15, 2009: The Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) said today that the government should not clear any genetically modified food crop till the time we have strict provisions for labelling. Bt brinjal will be one of the few crops which are used for human consumption directly and not processed into bread or used in other processed foods. "Clearance of such a crop requires the authorities to practice extreme caution.

In my particular case here we have only one draw a day. So far this sems helpfull.
Very good point
I also like the "Alert Feature"
and the place where you can pull up more than one state at a time. Its great if you have a pattern of your state following certain other states.
this is amazing. I don't even have to do any work like Carli says. Last night's florida winning number was 811, July 21 2012. I punched that in and it showed me the matching numbers before and after.
I also noticed that the highest counts on the right column where it says numbers and times shows what pairs show up soon.
as an example from July 16 the midday winner was 112. when I punched it in, the top 2 highest counts were 014-3 times and 023-3 times. two days later the midday winner was 723
If anyone has the LotSoft program by Paurths take a look at it. It has a followers module that shows numbers that fall 7 days befor and 7 days after a particular number. That should help you to sift through numbers history fairly quickly.
LotSoftPro is listed as freeware on the website.
what is the link to get to this site
thanks, tntea
OLD/Vtrac Lottery Bible Double Warnings TN F34/F44
I do use Lotsoft a lot but for this particular use. Im not so sure its the best option . My reason being that it is not available for combined draws.
So if it hits 123 Mid what you will see is what hit the next day MID . You wont get what hit the same day EVE.
Correct me if Im wrong on this
right, you have to see what hit eve seperately
I think Im not saying it correctly
Will try and post example of what Im trying to say.
just punch lotsoftpro in your browser and you should see it at the top of the list.
I got called out on another thread for posting the link and told it was against the rules to post the link lottery post snipped it
I will pm you and see if we can give you enough info to find it
A lot of way to get it; in my case i open the google search engine and typed " LotSoft program by Paurths". The link is "Lotsoft v2.3"
you will need to register and download the program.
bcf STATUS,Z
I am getting this...
That is old link
use the search terms he gave you .. its not a dot com website .. its a dot WS
I think this will illustrate what I was trying to say .
I searched for the 723 (July 18 )Straight mid and Eve.. What Im saying is that doing it this way, we are not even see the 646 as an option and it followed on Eve of the 18th
Clicking error
Sorry Onlymoney, I was trying to rate this topic 5/5, then i accidentally cliked on 4.8/5.
this is a great topic i would rate it for 10/5 if it possible.
I have used the history like this before to decide on what numbers to pick..
I use the tools here at LP to get the information I need. It takes some time.. but sometimes pays off. I got several straights using this and the vtracs together.
Using the Lotsoftpro.. There is 6 or months worth of draws missing. DO I enter those myself?

Ocean circulation studies (Alboran Sea, Balearic Sea, etc): Climate – ocean interactions and their impact on marine ecosystems are worldwide attention particularly for coastal, semi-enclosed and marginal seas in which masking of natural climatic variations by those introduced through heavy human interventions is a major concern. Understanding their climate change and climatic variations strongly requires elucidating dominant spatial and temporal modes of variability and their interactions and feedbacks. In particular, processes involved in the annual cycle, their dominant mode of variability, may likely trigger variability on width range of time scales (interannual to interdecadal) and can as well be modulated by longer time scale variability through feedback mechanisms. the Alboran Sea of the Western Mediterranean is a highly dynamic system known to exhibit complex set of interactions arising from local, regional and hemispherical processes, and therefore serves as a good global example for semi-enclosed seas.
As a first step, by analysing remote sensing data, the main robust features of the Alboran Sea have been assesed. Please find bellow the abstract of this study.

In this study, for the first time at regional scale, the combined use of remote sensing data (altimetry and sea surface temperature records) provides a description of the persistent, recurrent and transient circulation regimes of the Alborán Sea circulation. The analysis of 936 altimeter-derived weekly absolute dynamic topography (ADT) and surface geostrophic current maps for 1993–2010 reveals the presence of a dominant annual signal and of two interannual modes of variability. The winter-spring phase is characterized by two stable gyral scale features; the well-known Western Anticyclonic Gyre within the western area and the Central Cyclonic Gyre, a new structure not identified in former studies, occupying the central and eastern parts of the Alborán Sea. A double anticyclonic gyre regime constitutes the stable circulation system of the summer–autumn period when the Eastern Anticyclonic Gyre is formed within the eastern Alborán basin. In this case, the Central Cyclonic Gyre is narrower and located closer to the Western Anticyclonic Gyre. They represent two stable states of the system, robust at the decadal time scale, whereas transient changes reflect perturbations on these stable states and are mainly observed at an interannual scale. The circulation variability and the gyral features development may be dynamically linked to the corresponding changes of the Gibraltar transport rates.

The vision: Entrepreneurs find many places to meet and mingle, maybe run into an investor or two. Accelerators accept the best and the brightest start-ups, which in turn stay and grow their businesses in South Florida. Tech companies and serial entrepreneurs open their doors to mentor others. Robust university systems supply the talented technologists and entrepreneurs in the making. Healthy angel networks fund many early-stage companies.
That's what a healthy ecosystem for start-ups is all about, and some leaders say the vision is within reach for South Florida. "It's about growing great entrepreneurs. They need to have a community supporting them," says Susan Amat, executive director of the University of Miami's Launch Pad entrepreneurship center and one of the leading advocates of the entrepreneurial movement here.
Last week, Launch Pad announced it will open a community accelerator in January at the Terremark/NAP of the Americas building in downtown Miami. The companies selected for the Launch Pad Tech Accelerator will participate in a three-month program of intense mentoring designed to grow the businesses quickly, receive $25,000 grants, and get mentoring and office space for the year. The Miami Downtown Development Authority has committed $460,000 in funding over two years for operations. Miami-Dade County is kicking in $1 million over four years to fund the grants to entrepreneurs.
And that's not all. Florida International University President Mark Rosenberg is hoping to include a required course on entrepreneurship for every undergraduate. New events, companies, nonprofit initiatives and funding groups have been springing up to support the entrepreneur. Consider:
• The Knight Foundation has announced a major new program to promote and fund entrepreneurship projects in South Florida. The nonprofit Enterprise Development Corporation, under new leadership, recently expanded its incubator in Boca Raton and is at work on an incubator at Broward College. The University of Miami Life Science & Technology Park is gaining traction as a community hub for tech and the sciences, with co-working space, shared lab space, new restaurants and frequent events, in addition to a growing number of technology tenants that call it home.
• A wave of co-working spaces is expected to sweep in this fall. These include Pipeline Brickell opening in a couple of weeks, and a huge expansion of the recently opened LAB Miami in Wynwood set for early winter. Also scheduled to open in October: RightSpace2Meet's co-working space at UM's Life Science & Technology Park, and in Boca Raton, Caffeine Spaces. All plan to feature programs and services geared to the entrepreneur. (See related story here.)
• Tech calendars runneth over, with 60 to 70 events every month in South Florida. The weekend-long AT&T Mobile App Hackathon drew a record 200 people in August, and regular monthly meetups for Refresh Miami in August and September packed in 300 people. Silicon Valley's Lean Startup Machine rolled into town and has vowed to lead quarterly workshops. Two weekends ago, hackers took over the Bass Museum to develop apps for the arts, and coming up Oct 12-14 Startup Weekends will be held at both UM's Launch Pad/Terremark space and at the incubator in Boca Raton. In what could be a yearly tradition, Miami will host WebCongress, a huge Internet marketing conference formerly held in Spain. The Latin America-themed program will be Nov. 29 and 30.

SMN: What did you learn from the teletown meeting? Anything new?
Heath Shuler: "The meeting reinforced my belief that most people don't fully understand what is in the health-care reform bill and they have many valid questions about it. It also showed that we shouldn't rush to pass this bill that will have a dramatic effect on most Americans' lives."
Why do a teletown meeting, rather than a regular regular town hall meeting?
"I decided to hold a tele-town hall meeting because I wanted to explain my position on health care reform and listen to constituents' questions and comments without the grandstanding from political groups. It also allowed constituents in the western region to dial in from their own homes rather than having to drive hours to attend."
How much have you been affected by the grassroots efforts on both sides?
"I listen to all my constituents, but at the end of the day, I still must vote for what I feel is right for the people of Western North Carolina. While I support health-care reform, I still oppose the H.R. 3200 legislation."
There is a wellness, disease management, and prevention aspect in the bill. What specifically would you add to that? How much could focusing on this bring down costs?
"I'd like to see more tax benefits for individuals and companies to promote wellness and prevention. I'm looking at several proposals on this currently. The problem is that it's hard for government agencies to quantify saving from wellness and prevention programs. But it makes sense that spending money on prevention will save costs down the road."
Same with preventing waste, fraud and abuse – what specific measures would you add to the bill that aren't already there?
"One item is streamlining medical codes for all procedures. Doctors often can get paid different prices for the same procedure depending on which medical procedure code they use to bill."
H.R.3200 proposes that small businesses with under $500,000 in payroll be exempt from providing health care to their employees. What is your opinion on that proposal?
"I oppose any measure that mandates that business provide health care benefits and would saddle small businesses with higher costs at a time when many already are struggling in these economic times."
Are you for or against having a public option for health care?
"So far, I have not seen a public-option proposal that I can support."
What do you hope accomplish with the next tele-town hall meeting?
"I want to continue to listen to my constituents about their thoughts on health care and answer as many questions as possible."

International Labor Strategy
The national alliances that came together to create the United Workers Congress envisioned a space for developing international strategies and connecting their local and national work to a larger labor movement. The international conference was UWC's first step in introducing international labor struggles and providing a space for our leaders to think larger than their own sectors. We plan to continue that trajectory and provide a space for our alliance leaders to engage with international strategies and talk to labor organizations in other countries.
Affiliates' International Work
• NGA's historic organizing of guest workers is an example of organizing "contract workers" – in a global context. Their partnership with the SLD in India has been groundbreaking.
• NDWA's historic campaign for Decent Work began at home and spread internationally.
NDWA worked with organisations around the world for the First ILO Convention on decent work for domestic workers. On June 16, 2011, Governments, Employers and Workers of the world at the 100th International Labour Conference (ILC) in Geneva, Switzerland adopted the First Convention and accompanying Recommendation on Decent Work for Domestic Workers.
• Strategic Research
UWC supports the work of its affiliates internationally through enabling and facilitating strategic research across countries.
• Local-Global Alliance Building
UWC supports affiliates in identifying international allies and facilitating relationship building through visits and exchanges, working together, and sharing information. The basis of such relationships is grounded in the grassroots priorities of the affiliate so that domestic and international work can be meaningfully linked.
• Capacity Building
UWC creates training modules so that affiliates can train their leaders on global labor issues, organizes workshops and lectures to expose affiliates to international labor leaders, and facilitates in streaming relevant news from around the world to its affiliates.
• Visits and Exchanges
UWC organizes affiliate leaders' visits and exchanges to countries of their international partners to further strategic planning and information sharing.

Campaigns and Alliances
• Asia Floor Wage Campaign
In 2006, labors leaders in Asia decided to think about an international strategy to address the impact of globalization on workers. The Asia Floor Wage campaign was born to create a bargaining strategy in a global industry – something that has not been attempted before in any industry. AFW is a regional (in this case, Asia) bargaining campaign for a minimum living wage regardless of the country they are working in, in the most widespread industry in the world, namely, garment.
• International Domestic Worker Network
The International Domestic Workers Network (IDWN) is made up of domestic workers' organizations and other trade unions around the world. The IDWN believes in strong democratic domestic workers' organization to protect domestic workers' rights, and in changing power relations in society, to promote gender equality and human rights for the benefits of domestic workers.

A boycott?? Man, some people really are blinded by their politics. When did the Academy EVER boycott a film because of excessive violence, explosions, or bloodbaths? Accurate depiction of something that really happened, but they can´t allow it in case it makes a Republican look good!
Martin Sheen is calling for a boycott of this film? Good enough for me, I´m going to see it tonight.
great work of fiction... do the researchjust saying don´t flame me
Had not planned on seeing this movie but after all the Lefties got their lil panties in a wad guess I will go see it!
Who wrote that headline? Michelle Obama (Soetoro)?
I thought at first that it would be some sort of Obama-worship propaganda. If Sheen and the usual lefty p###ks don´t like it I will have to see it.The reviews I read all say that it´s extremely well done.
I went today to the matinee to see this film. It´s a great film and that is proven by the predictable outrage of the left when shown true heroism and patriotism in the face of evil.
I have been boycotting Martin Sheen forever, so he can count me for that boycott.
I guess I´m not allowed to express my opinion, as I keep getting rejected for a "bad word"! I corrected it 4 or 5 times, and kept getting the same rejection, but NOTHING was marked in red.Go figure.
I saw it. It was engaging, but not "great." The camera work was annoying. There were two disjointed parts of the movie: one part Hollywood feminist with the red-headed actress (who was OK in the role, but not particularly "great") and then the he-man part when the SEAL team went on their mission.All that said, it was still pretty much a pro-American film with the expected politically correct angle against any harsh interrogation techniques. I do think it gave away too much information on our covert operations.

Main Jet #96; SI Carbs
This is the small, cone-shaped jet at the bottom of the main jet stack. They come in various sizes ranging 82-165. Most vintage Vespas will use one in the 85-116 range, though performance-modded engines can drink a lot more gas and use much bigger jets. The larger the number, the more fuel will flow through.
Jetting is something that takes trial and error. See our blog of jetting instructions for more info.

Have you tested it to see how often the AI uses it? 95% of the time? 50%? 10% 0%? Just curious.
How did you decide how to keep facism fair & balanced vs. accurate?
I'm the author of the original Civ2 Fascist Patch... I've more or less kept things quite for some time, awaiting to see what would happen with Civ3... well, as we all know, Fundamentalism was taken out (yeah!), but Fascism still didn't make it in.
Well, here is release v2.2 (newly updated 20 Apr 02) of the Civ3 Fascist Patch... some changes have been made. Mostly the addition of Fascism, no new techs, no new units, but there are changes to some units, mainly naval... Fascism is of course added as a new government (requires espionage after Nationalism). Most importanly, what has changed in v2.2 is full support for v1.21f of Civ3.
v2.0 is improvements in Hitlers graphics, (or removal of Hitler whichever is your preferance), and fully compliant with version 1.16f of the game.
New to v1.2 is some additional info in the Civilopedia, but the main changes have been stabilizing the naval units, mostly in the age of sail area (Frigates, Privateers, etc).
(included from v1.1) is some tweaks that make sense... free units of Fascism went down a slight bit, while free units of Communism went up a small amount... also, Civilization government favorite/shunned list updated to include Fascism.
v1.0 was downloaded by over 600 Civ3 fans!
You can also get it at the "Official" website:
If you get all worked up into a frenzy everytime you watch the History Channel on TV and they show some pictures of WWII, don't bother going to the website!
The download is 3.6MB in size (regular)
All Hail the Fascist Patch!

Just to remind you, you can change the civ personalities to like / dislike goverments.
Gonna try the patch later. I liked your work in CIV II Wolfshanze.

I've been waiting for this. The civ2 patch was one of the most well known out there. It had been pretty much a standard mod everytime I installed or upgraded the game. I loved fighting the "evil empires" since it was so popular among the more aggressive civs. I also enjoyed playing the evil empire on occasion.
Thanks for putting it back in.

Thanks for the comments folks. The little chart Asher put up may be a tad bit misleading in one aspect... originally, I was going to (and did) add the Technology Advance of "Fascism" which in-turn gave the Fascist government form. However, after adding the new tech, it made the game unstable, so I had to take it back out and just have Fascism tacked-on to the already existing tech of espionage... so now, when you learn espionage, you gain Fascism. Hopefully I can correct this later when the mod tools improve... it's still very early in the life of Civ3. As for making certain civs like or dislike a government, I missed that... I'll have to go back in and check that out!
Hope you folks enjoy the patch as much as I enjoy making it available. Now you only have to choose which side you play as!
You're brilliant wolfshanze, i loved your facist patch in Civ 2. Thanks so much!
I've edited my post with the correction.

Excellent! Fascism back in Civ. I haven't got Civ3 yet, but I hope it won't be too difficult to add in other government types like theocracy and corporate republic to expand on the rather emaciated existing Civ3 government choices.
A little thought process and reasoning behind Fascism in Civ3:
To answer an earlier question, the idea of Fascism vs the implementation of Fascism in a game like Civ3, is fairly similar to the idea I had in Civ2.
Make it both believeable, and play-balanced.
In Civ2, I saw Fundamentalism as a game-breaker... it was simply TOO STRONG for the game and unbalanced it the way it had too many advantages. When I modified Fundamentalism into Fascism, it was exactly that... a mod of Fundamentalism, so I couldn't really do what I wanted to, but I think I succeeded in balancing the game better in Civ2 (I really hated the thought of Fascism having no corruption, but my hands were tied).
In Civ3, I can do closer to my interpretation of Fascism in game-scale then I could in Civ2, since the government editing tools are better in Civ3.
In a nut-shell, Civ3 Fascism is like a "modern" Republic, without the "war weariness" factor. Corruption does take it's toll though in Civ3 Fascism. By the time people reach the Industrial age, Republic is usually ditched in favor of Democracy, those wanting to wage war, usually use Communism. Fascism is the third "modern" choice of late-generation governments, especially smaller states, since the corruption is minimum close to home (ie: the original nation). As the Fascist state grows in size, it will have to deal with corruption, but the free-market economy of a Fascist state is better financially and scientifically compared with a Communist regime. Once again, this places all-out war in the "best to use Communism" category, while all-out peace is best to use Democracy... Fascism is somewhere in the middle, with a balance of war and economy, without the war weariness of a Democracy or Republic!
...and people stand up to cheer the man behind the podium.
I always felt there needed to be a third choice for the modern era. Democracy and Communism were the survivors, true, but Fascism had awfully strong backing during the Depression. It was genuinely considered a viable alternative to the democracies and recently overthrown monarchies that fought WWI.
BTW, did you mess with the leader likes\dislikes portion of Civ3 yet?
Do you know if certain countries routinely pick this style of government?
"I kick a$$ for the Lord!"
-- Father McGruder, Peter Jackson's _Dead Alive_
what's unrealistic about the communist gov't in the game is that there is a reduced level of corruption. having experienced communism first hand, I can say that corruption should fall under the "more than rampent" catagory. But then, there would be no advantage to this form of gov't in the game, just as in the real world.
I think I may have found a problem with the Mod...what can I say, I installed it...anyway, I can no longer read the science advisor's advice in the tech tree. The text screen where it's supposed to appear is now black with a few purple dots in it. Has anyone else had this problem?

There should be no bugs at all. By your statement, I assume you mean the same place you get to by hitting the "F6" key.
The Fascist Patch doesn't do any "trickery" to do what it does. It uses the default built-in editor, and stands by all the editing rules, there's no reason for a bug at all.
I've played many games using the mod, and I have no problems reading the science advisor where the F6 key is concerned. It comes out clear as a bell... I'm under the assumption nobody else has had this problem either?!?!
I fully playtested the mod before releasing it (that's how I squashed the other bug when I did try to bend the rules by adding a Fascist Tech Advance). What I posted is a "clean" mod with no funny-business. Odd that you should have any problems, as it runs fine on my end.
Have you used any other mods of any sort, anything from a cracked exe to any other mod? The Fascist Patch changes no graphics and no game rules other than the Fascist Government, so I suspect your problem lies elsewhere not related to the Fascist Patch (assuming you did install it correctly).
Right up my alley Wolfshanze awesome. Really like the swastika graphic on the goverment choice list and the title fuehrer. Just something to think about is maybe later adding one special unit for each goverment type, like democracy gets maybe a navy seal, communist get maybe some kind of tatical shock trooper with better stats than infantry, and facist get of coarse facist trooper with different abilities. man know that would be cool. i know alot of work and patience goes into getting these different mods and things, but i really enjoy them and hope you continue to make civ 3 a even better gaming experience than it already is.
"How must the man be constituted who will lead Germany back to her old heights?" The man, should be a dictator not averse to the use of slogans, street parades and demagoguery. He must be a man of the people yet have nothing in common with the mass. Like every great man, he must be "all personality," and one who"does not shrink from bloodshed. Great questions are always decided by blood and iron." To reach his goal, he must be prepared "to trample on his closest friends," dispense law "with terrible hardness" and deal with people and nations "with cautious and sensitive fingers" or if need be "trample on them with the boots of a grenadier." ---Rudolf Hess
Just letting you know I called it the Fascist Patch VERSION 1.0 for a reason! There will be future updates... I have many ideas in my head for the Fascist Patch... some I can impliment now, others will have to wait for better editing tools, but all will have to wait for me to have more time! (Maybe this upcoming 3-day weekend).
For those wanting to visit the Fascist Patch's home page, try here:

You might want to increase the 'worker rate' to 3 also, since Fascism promotes a strong work force.
And also- did you intentionally leave Fascist spies as 'Regular', instead of making them 'Veteran'? It seems to me that under Fascist rule, espionage would be a great deal more important so that spies are emphasized. Just a couple of suggestions.
Now all you need is a Gestapo unit.
thanks, looks just as great as the Civ2 fascist patch
The Gestapo was very good at domestic counterintelligence, but was not responsible for foreign intelligence. I forget what the foriegn intelligence service of the 3rd Reich was called, but it was run by Admiral Canaris. Historically, the foreign inteligence service was abysmal - riddled with double agents, those who were not double agents were incompetent, etc... The entire German spy network in Britain was turned early in the war, and every time the Germans sent anybody new in the ones already there either turned him, saw to it he got "caught", or gave him the mushroom treatment ("keep 'em in the dark & feed 'em ****"). Similarly, the Germans landed some sabotage teams in the US vis U-boat and the FBI caught them before they could accomplish anything at all. Canaris himself seems to have been a member of the anti-Nazi resistance and perhaps a double agent himself (his widow quietly received a pension after the war from the Western Allies). So, actually under Fascism your own spies should be lame but you would have a lot of immunity to enemy spies, if you want to model it on history.Originally posted by Anunikoba

I put 100% for assimilation on mine...I mean, would Hitler have killed 4% of the Jews? Unlikely.
I've had a problem like this without the patch, but it seems to go away and just be quite random where it appears. It so far has only happened on part of my Palace screen, and my tech screen once. I'd just assume it's a glitch in the game, rather than in the patch.Originally posted by MDR

have you seen the AI use facism yet wolf?
i was just curious, how does one go about adding techs and changing images on the tech tree? as well as makin new images for governments and the like. i have only used the ingame editor so far, havent looked to deeply at the file structures, but if someone could give me some tips, id be very appreciative. and btw, ive found that setting a government to "shunned" doesnt stop the AI from using it if its a "powerful" government.
I cant think of anything else intelligent...except, check out my alternate history page:
Roma Invicta
Yes, if anyone who has played with the Facism patch could post here how well the AI uses it I would be very interested. Someone recently said in their game of 10 civs - 7 had democracy & 3 had communism. If Facism is too strong and too favorable all the AIs will be using it & none will be using the other government types. If Facism is too weak none of the AIs will be using it. Seeing all the AIs use all Facism, Communism, & Democracy would be ideal. Right now Republic & Monarchy suck real bad so no AI will touch them unless they have to.
I like the idea of the Fascist government, very realistic.
Just a few questions about your implemenation..
How did you choose to hurry production?
In my opinion, the ability to wage war and receive
the standard trade bonus is a HUGE advantadge.
Perhaps the fascist government needs some more
disadvantadges to balance it out.
Vis a Vis a Fascist Government, the only advantadges a
Democracy receives are minimal corruption and
increased worker rates.
Whereas the advantadge the Fascist government
receives are free units, higher draft limit, military
police, no war weariness(HUGE). When you add
in the standard trade bonus coupled with no unit
support costs, it seems like the gold income would
be MASSIVE.
Perhaps setting the spies to conscripts and lowering
the number of free units might add some more
Anyone who has used this government have any
feedback? By the way, none of this is meant to be
a criticism, just tossing some ideas into the ring.
Great job on the fascist patch.
Currently, my game has 8 of the 10 civs I started with. All 8 are Fascist. Of course, we're in the middle of WW1 (The world vs France and I) so Democracy isn't a really great choice for anyone right now.Originally posted by Pyrodrew

Well, if you want to nitpick...
"Fascism" is a noun for the government type, or the ideology underlying the government type. "Fascist" is both a noun for someone/something advocating/practicing Fascism, and the adjective to ascribe the advocation/practice of Fascism to the noun it modifies.
"Grand Fenwick adopted Fascism": Fascism is a noun.
"The leader of Grand Fenwick's government was a Fascist": Fascist is a noun.
"The leader of Grand Fenwick's government was a Fascist dictator": Fascist is an adjective, modifying the noun "dictator".
The government of Grand Fenwick was Fascist: Fascist is an adjective, modifying the noun "Government of Grand Fenwick".
Knight's usage "All 8 [governments] are Fascist" is therefore correct. "Fascist" in this usage is an adjective modifying the noun "All 8 [governments]", ascribing the charactoristic of practicing Fascism to the governments in question.

The ping of sharp line drives and towering drives echo over the grounds at Legends Golf, where athletes of all ages compete in rounds of miniature golf and hone swings in the batting cages or at the driving range.
Golf balls trickle down topsy-turvy tracks at the 18-hole miniature-golf course, which weaves through rock faces and tiny geysers that erupt with glee any time a player misses an easy putt. Eight target greens populate the 300-yard driving range, where new Wilson Staff Range Balls touch down after taking flight from 45 synthetic mats or 35 grass tees.
Under the vaulted roof of the batting cages, nine pitching machines send baseballs and softballs speeding toward hitters as they get the most out of every at bat and discreetly argue balls and strikes with imaginary umpires. To pass the time in between mini-golf rounds or during kids' golf lessons, guests can use Legends' wireless Internet connection free of charge.
Divided between two locations in Manchester and Nashua, Vertical Dreams' 15,000 square feet of simulated mountainside are packed with obstacles and tough sections to challenge climbers of all skill levels. At the Manchester gym, gutted elevator shafts lined with hand grips extend four stories upward, creating 70-foot vertical surfaces. The Nashua location boasts 10,000 square feet of wall space, with textured surfaces that respond realistically to climber's hands and feet and fill their nostrils with simulated rock smells.
Vertical Dreams' staff of veteran climbers teaches students one-on-one or in groups. In beginner lesson packages, instructors show aspiring climbers the figurative and literal ropes involved in belaying, climbing, and knot tying, and the teachers in advanced top-roping and sport-climbing classes push their students' abilities to climb solo or in a lead position.
Chunky's Cinema Pub has been mixing the polished glimmer of modern technology with the gauzy glow of yesteryear for almost two decades. Eight screens mingle first-run blockbusters with themed throwback classics catering to children of the '50s or '80s. There, in the glow of the previews, is another testament to the melding of time—a contemporary dinner-and-a-movie setup brings with it the nostalgia of old-school drive-ins. Instead of traditional cinema chairs, individual cushy Lincoln Continental surround communal dinner tables, and the seats roll and recline to let guests maximize their comfort and customize their sightlines as they catch the onscreen action and pretend to be backseat drivers. At their tables, American pub snacks and entrées from the extensive menu spread out, combining movies with burgers, quesadillas, and steak tips.
While the theater blends old with new, Chunky's Bio Truck zooms into the future with a gas tank full of the 100% trans-fat-free canola oil used for cooking in the kitchen. The bio-fuel reduces the truck's greenhouse emissions and helps to decrease its carbon footprint, spreading an eco-conscious message to the community.
Inside Amherst Yoga's spacious, sunny studio, yoga students exercise mind and body with a variety of yoga classes.

With three basic ingredients—honey, water, and yeast—the making of mead is misleadingly simple. Michael Fairbrother has spent the last 17 years perfecting his recipes for the ancient drink, first tinkering in his own garage as an amateur mead maker for many years before opening Moonlight Meadery. Here, Michael fine-tunes the fermentation process to craft batches of mead from ethically sourced, unpasteurized honey, which imparts each sip with rich color, volatile aromatics, and a faint buzzing sound. Michael's traditional mead rests side by side with fruit-tinged cups and spiced varieties that rejoin flavors such as tart rhubarb and Madagascar-bourbon vanilla beans with New Hampshire wildflower honey.
Arthur Murray has been a leading name in franchise dance since 1912, when the entrepreneur began selling mail-order dance lessons. Expanding his reach, he enlisted teachers to spread his signature dance lessons on first-class steamships and skyrocketed to fame in the '30s after introducing the public to such dances as the Lambeth Walk and The Big Apple. By the 1950s, Arthur and his wife, Kathryn, were hosting their own highly popular TV show on ABC, The Arthur Murray Dance Party, which ran for 12 years. Today, Arthur Murray's team prepares students for rug cutting at special events and weekend nightclub jaunts. Throughout lessons, instructors teach the foundations of two to four dances from a long list of styles that range from Latin to country-western, helping students to learn basic step patterns, timing, and the ability to lead or follow.

Kozarska cave (709 meters) is a part of the Lakatnik Karst Area. It is situated in the plateau where the Proboinitsa river flows into Iskar River.
The entrance of the cave is high over the river and it is hard to be seen by a casual visitor. The cave is called "Kozarska" ("Goat cave") because to reach it you have to climb up steep and narrow track. Its entrance is big with a spacious antechamber that is usually used as a bedroom.
The cave itself is very small and only the fallen on the floor quartz crystals reminds of its former beauty. There are 2 corridors that lead to the only hall of the cave. In the cracks of its ceiling the foots of the one-time enormous quartz geodes can be seen.
Crawling leftwards along a narrow gallery ending with an outlet, in the direction of the ridge of the rock crown, you can reach the top of the rock crown. From there opens out a fantastic panorama of the area.
