General Alexander Asboth
A native of Hungary, Asboth became
a naturalized citizen of the United
States and was twice wounded
during the Civil War. He became a
U.S. diplomat and died in South
America. He is buried at Arlington.
Asboth's 1864 Raid on Marianna
sboth's 1864 Raid on Marianna
Point Washington
The raiders planned to return by
was of Point Washington on
Choctawhatchee Bay.
Fort Barrancas
Asboth's headquarters were at the
Post of Barrancas, a
adjacent to the historic old fort.
The receipt of reasonably good intelligence
on Confederate activities in the Marianna
area led Brigadier General Alexander Asboth
to plan a cavalry raid against the Northwest
Florida city.
A native of Hungary and trusted associate of
the famed revolutionary Kossuth, Asboth had
fought against Austrian and Russian forces
in a desperate attempt to establish an
American-style democracy in his homeland.
The effort failed and he fled to the United
States aboard the
U.S.S. Mississippi
made a home for himself in New York.
A well-educated and skilled engineer, he
conducted the surveys for New York city's
beautiful Central Park and also developed a
new technique of road paving. When war
erupted between the North and South, he
offered his services to President Abraham
Lincoln and because of his prior experience
as a staff officer was sent to St. Louis where
he served as Chief of Staff to Major General
John C. Fremont and helped to organize the
Army of the Frontier.
Asboth was wounded while commanding a
division at the Battle of Pea Ridge, Arkansas,
where he was commended for heroism for
his role in holding back a desperate charge
by Confederate troops.
He later served in Mississippi, Tennessee
and Kentucky, but assumed command of the
Union District of West Florida in 1863. It was
a vital post at the time, as Sherman was then
marching through Georgia and it was unclear
whether he would be forced to turn back or try
to cut his way through to Pensacola on the
Gulf of Mexico.
Asboth spent most of the winter of 1863-
1864 organizing and expanding his forces on
Pensacola Bay. He sought and received
approval to organize a new regiment of Union
volunteers from the hundreds of "disaffected
Southerners" the in camps near his head-
quarters at Fort Barrancas. By the summer of
1864, these men had been assembled into
the 1st Florida U.S. Cavalry, a regiment that
included both officers and men from the
Marianna area.
After informing his superiors of his plans, the
general began moving troops across
Pensacola Bay aboard the quartermaster
Lizzie Davis
during the third week of
September. He crossed in person on the
morning of September 18, 1864, and began
moving east along the Old Federal Road
which paralleled Santa Rosa Sound.
Asboth's force totalled roughly 700 men, all
mounted. The command consisted of three
battalions from the 2nd Maine Cavalry, one
battalion from the 1st Florida U.S. Cavalry
and two picked companies from the 82nd
and 86th U.S. Colored Infantries. Company M
of the 2nd Maine also carried along two 12-
pounder mountain howitzers.
The force advanced along the Federal Road
through today's Naval Live Oaks area of Gulf
Islands National Seashore and soon came
to today's Fort Walton Beach on the Narrows
of Santa Rosa Sound. There they spent a day
landing additional supplies from the
and making last minute preparations
for the raid.
After ordering the steamboat to the head of
Choctawhatchee Bay (near today's Point
Washington and Freeport), Asboth turned
inland on the morning of September 20,
1864. Moving slowly up the Ridge Road
across the sand hills of today's Eglin Air
Force base, he struck first at the vast cattle
ranches along the Shoal River. Rounding up
beef and capturing a few Confederates found
home on leave, he turned east and by the
night of September 22nd was camped on the
rolling hills surrounding Lake Defuniak. The
modern city of Defuniak Springs was not
founded until some years later.
Either from his own scouting parties or from
one of his prisoners, the general learned that
a small force of Confederate soldiers were
camped about three miles from the lake at
the village of Eucheeanna, then the county
seat for Walton County. He determined to
strike this force at dawn the next morning,
hoping to keep the Southerners from alerting
the main command in Marianna that he was
on the move.
Heavy rains, probably left over from a tropical
system that had been reported in the lower
Gulf of Mexico, had drenched the Federals
since they left Pensacola, but according to
Asboth they remained in high spirits. The rain
probably also kept Confederate troops in the
area close to home and it appears the
soldiers at Eucheeanna had no idea of the
approaching danger. The first fighting of the
raid would take place on the next morning,
September 23, 1864.

INformation onf M.V.Melody Cruise ship
Report Abuse
we went on the Melody several years ago. The ship markets mostly in Europe and has mostly longer cruises. It is an older ship with at least 50% european cruisers. We had the best table at dinner of all our cruises. Everyone from Germany or US and no language problem. However, on our cruise, they had AC problems almost everyday, the staff were kind of bumbling, pulling into one port, they actually HIT a Costa ship. You should have seen the 2 captains ranting and raving on the dock!! we just laughed the inconviences off, we were paying a really low rate and everyone tried so hard to please. Some of our best cruise memories, good and bad, are from this trip. Go with a light heart and enjoy!!

Hi Terry,
Maryann is correct. The ship caters to mostly Europeans who do not value creature comforts as do Americans. And, of course, do not complain as much.
The last time the ship was refurbished was in 1988.
Not a ship I personally would want to sail. But if you are on a limited budget, what the heck, give it a shot and let us know how it was.
Report Abuse
Admittedly, I sailed Melody awhile back (3-4 years ago or so) but it was surprisingly good. Can't beat the value--I don't think the prices went up in all that time! Americans were in the vast minority, which was fine, since like the poster above, we had the BEST table EVER--and are still very much friends with the German and Dutch couples we met. Announcements, though, are of course in a gazillion languages. Well, five. I don't know if it would bother you, but because it is largely European, topless sunbathing is condoned and not on a hidden deck but--bam!--right there at the pool. Didn't bother us, but it was a bit weird to the Americans, some of whom were pretty shocked by it.

You bet. About 20 years ago my wife and I cruised on a French ship. My wife went up to grab a lounger at the pool and fell asleep. When she woke up she turned to the left and saw 2 humongous mountains. She turned to the right and saw two more. She thought she was at a Van Gogh art exhibit. She said now she understands why he committed suicide.

I'm a wizard. Well, I define myself as a wizard even though I am a witch. But please call me Dini the Wizard. It brings me great joy when people call me that.
I'm currently working on my first story-game, The Unusual Life in Winsdale.
This story doesn't mainly focus on love. It is a unusual game. Well, I think that it is. This is my first story-game, and I do hope you enjoy it.
You play as Maxwell, and your father is an ass. He left your mother, sister and you. You want to quench your thirst for love, so then you find Lillian. A perfect, beautiful girl who has been your good friend for many years.
After you fell in love with Lillian, you kept on having these strange and disturbing dreams. (Please children. If you are very young do NOT play this game.)
Then Lillian disappears. Shit. It's up to you to find out how to save Lillian, and to find out what is the cause of these dreams.

New Jersey's Sandy Victims Struggle to Gather Thanksgiving Meals
Come on, this was a year ago. Get over it. Yes, we're all sorry this happened to you but it is time for you to take care of yourself. A little personal responsibility will go a long way. All whining will get you is more government dependence.
Check it out:
A year after the storm ravaged the coast of New Jersey and the federal government dumped millions of dollars into aid and repair, victims of Hurricane Sandy are still having trouble putting together Thanksgiving meals.
A report in Wednesday's Star-Ledger chronicled the struggles of charity organizations attempting to hand out as many Thanksgiving meals in the Shore towns of Toms River, Brick, Point Pleasant Beach, and other shore towns. Despite millions in federal and state funds being diverted to reconstructing the Shore, the number of families needing help to feed themselves has been "increasing daily" in recent months, and several centers have seen an increase in demand this week before Thanksgiving.
The explanation, one food drive organizer explained, was that more than a year into the tragedy, those who lost their homes had spent any money they received from FEMA and were often not any closer to reconstructing their homes. Many have yet to reconstruct much of their property, and of those who have a roof over their heads, hundreds of others have yet to have the money to buy new furniture or necessary living items. Food banks have resorted to handing out chickens instead of turkeys for Thanksgiving, their supplies rapidly depleted.

In Maniac Magee, how long did it take Maniac to untie the knot in Chapter 20?
1 Answer | Add Yours
We aren't actually given a specific time that Maniac took to untie the knot, however it is clear that he takes most of the day to achieve his great feat. Regular reference is made to the passing of time during the day, such as "the long August afternoon." Of course, Maniac Magee is finally successful in accomplishing his great feat at dinnertime, we are told, when the narrator joyfully announces that:
Cobble's Knot was dead. Undone. Gone. It was nothing but string.
We can thus infer that Maniac Magee started this immense challenge at some point in the morning, and, apart from the fifteen minute nap that we are told he took, continued at it without a break until dinner time, spending about eight hours on the task until his success.

After dealing with sanctions against Iraq for a decade, a United Nations committee is recommending how to apply embargoes more intelligently, by monitoring their impact, putting time limits on them and giving incentives for lifting them.
''You cannot have just a stick,'' one Security Council diplomat said about a draft of a report to be presented this month. ''You must also have carrots, and an exit strategy. That makes what we now call 'smart sanctions.' ''
A special committee has met since last April, when the Security Council held a public debate on the subject, to prepare a report on how to improve the impact of sanctions, like punishing leaders and the elite without hurting ordinary people.
Among the dozens of proposals are time limits after which the Council could end, renew or ease sanctions as a reward for full or partial compliance with demands on the offending nation. ''Once in force, sanctions should be carefully and regularly assessed and evaluated,'' the report said.
The Security Council has been grappling with how to impose sanctions since the coalition that supported broad trade embargoes against Iraq in 1990 began to fall apart several years ago. Sanctions applied to other countries in the last decade, including those against Yugoslavia, Libya, Sudan, Ethiopia and Eritrea, have expired or been far less stringent. All the bans exempt medical and food supplies for the general population, but many have affected ordinary people more than the leadership, or have not been strictly enforced.
Another recommendation by the committee, which was led by Bangladesh's ambassador, Anwarul Karim Chowdhury, is for the Council to consider secondary sanctions on countries that violate direct sanctions, something it has not done to date.Continue reading the main story

text: 1. Disappointed in the crowd yet again tonight... had to be less than 4K out there today. Come on guys, go support the Buffs! 2. Spencer Dinwiddie is an absolute stud. We were not very aggressive tonight and Spencer took over when we needed someone to, that's BIG from a freshman. He's very aggressive finishing at the rim and has a very pure long distance jumper... he's a very efficient scorer for us. Gotta watch the dumb freshman mistakes and fouls, but of course, he is a freshman so they will happen. 3. Nate Tomlinson, if you can't respect what he brings to this team after tonight, you'll just never get it, bottom line. He was the only reason we did ANYTHING in the 2nd half until the last 5 minutes when Spencer showed up. He is apparently the only person on the team who is capable of running the offense against a zone, and he was routinely setting up players for easy buckets tonight. Austin Dufault literally would average 2PPG without Nate on the floor. Efficient offensively, and 6 assists and 6 rebounds tonight, he was HUGE. 4. Austin Dufault had a solid game, as I said, benefited from some easy looks because of Nate's vision. He's still a liability defensively and he refuses to box out. Needs to utilize the pump more offensively because he's a below average leaper. 5. Damiene Cain is ready to play, but it appears he's just out of game shape as of now. He's extremely aggressive on the boards and will be a double digit rebounder for us long term. He is only an average leaper so he'll need to rely on his width to create scoring opportunities for himself. He looked comfortable guarding in the post and quick enough to guard the perimeter at his position, so that was very good to see. 6. The Shane Harris Tunks experiment needs to be over...please keep him off the floor, PLEASE. 7. Askia Booker had a very rough night, which to be honest, he was due for. He's very aggressive offensively but he also takes terrible shots routinely. That hasn't stopped him from scoring in the past, but it bit him tonight. We took 3 bad shots on the night, he took 2 of them (his only two attempts), Spencer the other one. Freshman will do that, but Booker needs to realize when to attack and when to find someone a shot. He also had some turnover trouble tonight and he's gotta find a way to slow down and play within the system. 8. Shannon Sharpe needs more minutes in games like tonight. We don't have a stopper on defense and he's our best shot, we've gotta find a way to slow down teams with a single guard who can score, it's bit us in the ass repeatedly. On the same topic, I don't understand why we continue to help off kids like tonight... their leading scorer was destroying us all night and we kept dropping off him, SOOOOOO frustrating. 9. Carlon Brown is such a disappointment thus far in the season. He's the ONLY kid on the team who can consistently create for himself off the dribble and get a solid shot. There is NO excuse for him to be so complacent, and he's not even playing aggressively defensively to make up for it. Its so inexcusable for our go to scorer to shoot the ball twice... literally inexcusable. 10. Andre Roberson played extremely well tonight, stayed available in the offense and took advantage of his off the ball advantages. He needs to continue to do that, because despite him being limited offensively, he can't afford to disappear on offense, we need his production. Of course, on the boards, he's as solid as can be... 11. This is the 2nd game in a row I came away extremely disappointed with Tad Boyle's decision making. His rotations are very questionable at times and he continues to leave players in for too long, namely Harris Tunks. He's getting stubborn, trying to allow the team to figure it out by themselves, we aren't good enough to do that, he's gotta tone that down. This type of game were we blew such a huge lead and we had 3 TOs remaining at the end of the game, that's not acceptable, at all. He refuses to make defensive adjustments to focus attention on a team's scorers, we can't allow one person to keep opponents in a game. 12. Free throws! FINALLY!!!!!!!! Nice to point to this as a reason we WON a game. Time and time again FTs are the difference between a win and a lose, they are free, it's not acceptable for them to be the reason you lose. We need to continue this going forward. 13. This team wins ugly... better than losing ugly, but we've got a long ways to go. We are fortunate to be playing in the Pac 12 this year rather than the Big XII, I'll say that much. It's going to be a roller coaster ride and I continue to try to tone down my emotions as I didn't expect much from this team this year. A win is a win afterall, right? Oh, and GO BUFFS!

All The Olympic Games By Megan Kniveton
The Greek Olympic Games
The earliest Greek Olympics games were held in 776 BC. Women were not allowed to go to the Olympic games to watch or play because there was a separate Olympics for them. Pankration wrestling was one of the games on the 4th day. The running track was much wider than the modern one. The Greeks believed that a healthy body was very important . The Ancient Olympic games were a part of a religious festival in honour of Zeus, the father of Greek gods and goddesses.+
The Greek Olympic games
The Olympics always started with a choir singing. At first the only Athletic competition at the Olympics was a single short foot race 170 meters long. For the first 12 Olympics that was all there was.
The modern Olympics By the time the first modern Olympic games started
In Athens in 1896 ,the idea was already More than a 100 years old. Between 1834 and 1836 there had already been games in Scandinavia. Athens, home of the ancient games, was chosen as host for the first modern Olympics and some of the games were rowing, sailing, shooting, swimming.
Great Britain Came 4th 2008 Beijing Olympics

Mar 24, 2017 | What do you do when faced with the threat of starvation: stay put hoping the situation will improve? Or walk in search of safety and a stable food source? This is the terrible dilemma hundreds of thousands of South Sudanese like 34-year-old Nyarmon are currently facing.
Mar 20, 2017 | Nura Abdi Nuur, a mother of seven, lives in an impromptu camp with other drought-stricken families. Before CARE arrived to provide assistance, the family - like so many in the area - was facing starvation.
One family. Three generations. And a village called Kagadama. See the evolution of CARE's Village Savings and Loan Associations in action.
Mar 14, 2017 | Mohammad and Fatima and their four children did not want to leave their home in Syria, but were forced to when violence escalated. Their son Taleb, who participated in CARE's #MakeWordsMatter video has one message: "Tell the world to love each other."
Mar 13, 2017 | Miriam lives in Jordan with her six children after fleeing Syria. An incredibly strong woman, her only wish is to return home. Sadly though, it remains a dream.
Mar 3, 2017 | "Famine" is an important word that is also sometimes misunderstood. Here are five common myths about famine to provide a deeper understanding of this important word.
Feb 15, 2017 | In Syria, women and children face increasing risks of violence and exploitation associated with forced and repeated displacement. Souad lost her husband and son and is now living in a displaced persons camp.
Feb 17, 2017 | CARE staff spoke to several participants in our TEMPS project - which seeks to prevent child, early and forced marriage in Mali and Benin - about how the project has changed their way of thinking and how they have become advocates.
Feb 8, 2017 | Refugee and migrant women come together at the Melissa Network Center in Athens, Greece to interact, create and support themselves and each other. It is not just another refugee shelter - it is a home.

The staff are friendly and will throw in a Greek lesson, if like me you are trying to order a few items in their language.The food was fresh, tasty and all at a reasonable cost.

Kim Kardashian West's son Saint is her "twin".
The 36-year-old American television personality believes her and 16-month-old child have the same personality and she claims the pair of them are both "so sweet", whereas her three-year-old daughter North has the same qualities as the 'Selfish' author's husband Kanye West.
Speaking about her brood on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show', which will air on Thursday (04.27.17), the raven-haired beauty said: "He's my twin. He's literally my twin personality. He's so sweet. And he's just such a good good boy. Just such a good person.
Kim Kardashian West thinks her Paris robbery was "meant to happen".
The 36-year-old beauty - who has a six-month-old son called Saint and a three-year-old daughter called North with her rap star husband Kanye West - was the victim of a heist in the French capital in October last year, but Kim has suggested the incident was simply part of her destiny.
She reflected: "I know it sounds crazy, but I know that was meant to happen to me.
"I don't want to start crying but I know it was meant to happen. I feel like I'm such a different person."
Kendall and Kylie Jenner caught their father secretly dressed as a woman when they were trying to spy on one another.
Caitlyn Jenner, who was known as Bruce before she transitioned in 2015, previously went to great lengths to hide her fondness for female attire from the rest of her family, and kept a small selection of feminine garments in the back of her locked closet.
When wife Kris Jenner and their family were out, the former Olympian would dress in her secret clothes, but things went wrong one evening.
Kim Kardashian West has lost six lbs. after contracting the flu.
The reality TV star claims her recent illness has aided her effort to lose weight in time for the annual Met Gala at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute next month.
Kim, 36, wrote on Twitter: "The flu can be an amazing diet. So happy it came in time for the Met lol #6lbsdown (sic)"
Last year, Kim admitted she refused to let her rap star husband Kanye West see her in the nude after she gave birth to their son Saint in December 2015.
Caitlyn Jenner has sent a message of support to transgender 'Survivor' star Zeke Smith.
Zeke, 29, was outed by fellow contestant Jeff Varner in a shocking episode of 'Survivor: Game Changers' this week and Caitlyn - who was known as Bruce Jenner before her gender transition - took to Twitter to publicly support Zeke.
She wrote: ".@zekerchief Being trans in the public eye is no joke, but you did good buddy. You made us proud (sic)."
Caitlyn's tweet came after the controversial episode aired, in which Jeff outed his fellow contestant during a tense tribal council.
Kim Kardashian West would "love nothing more" than to have another baby.
The 36-year-old television personality is already mother to three-year-old daughter North and 15-month-old son Saint - both of whom she has with her husband Kanye West - but has admitted the horrific ordeal in which she was tied up and robbed at gunpoint in Paris, France, last year has increased her "urgency" to expand her brood.
Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West attended a self-help seminar, which has been designed to set people free from fear.
The couple - who share North, three, and Saint, 15 months - were seen at the Unleash The Power Within seminar, run by Tony Robbins, alongside Kim's sister Khloe Kardashian and their mother Kris Jenner.
The group splashed out on the Diamond Premiere VIP pack, giving them front row seats to Tony's inspiring talks.
Kim Kardashian West called Kanye West an "a**hole" for scaring her in the aftermath of her Paris robbery.
The 36-year-old beauty - who was robbed at gunpoint in the French capital in October last year - revealed she suffered a flashback to her traumatic experience in Paris when her chart-topping husband inadvertently startled her when he arrived home late from a gig.
In a conversation with Kris Jenner and her sister Kourtney, Kim explained: "I totally freaked out.

Rory MacDonald Wants A Re-Match With Carlos Condit
Written By: Admin|
November 25, 2012|
Posted In:
UFC welterweight Rory MacDonald only has one loss on his record, and it was a last second TKO to Carlos Condit. Even though MacDonald has his hands full with B.J Penn on December 8th, he's looking for a rematch with Condit.
The quotes via ESPN…
"I respect him (Condit) completely, he's one of the guys I respect most in the sport," MacDonald told ESPN. "His outlook and his attitude is great.
"But I feel like I was embarrassed in that fight. I want to prove to myself and the world that I am the better fighter and I want revenge for the embarrassment I felt that night.
"Everyone has their own opinion of the fight, but at the end of the day I lost and was embarrassed. It is what it is. I plan to be the world champ."
In my opinion, MacDonald was seven seconds away from beating Condit, and I'd love to see a rematch…
Rory MacDonald has really been coming out of his shell of late. He's challenging people, he's making bold claims, and he's winning his fights in impressive fashion.
If MacDonald beats B.J Penn in December, which I think he will, he's probably one fight away from a possible title shot. MacDonald has already stated he's not interested in fighting Georges St. Pierre, so he could move up to Middleweight.
In fact, MacDonald has already stated that at some point he'll be fighting at 185…

When Nikky Thorne calls her over to try out the flexibility of Amandas cunt,the golden haired beauty is quick to accept the invitation. As youll see,everything went great between the two girls,and Amanda loved to be fisted,let it be an artificial or a real fist.

Disclaimer: I have not started college yet, so I'm not 100% sure about any of this – this is just what I've currently got in mind and am planning to experiment with at the beginning of the semester.
Starting college is exciting in many respects, but for someone who's spent the majority of her school life wearing a uniform and thus spared from hectic, delayed mornings due to wardrobe malfunctions, I've got some thinking to do about how to dress. I want to make sure I look presentable but comfortable, and that I'm dressing for practicality (read: heavy winter jackets during snowstorms!). Here are a few of the style necessities I've brainstormed that revolve around those principles:
1. Comfortable footwear: Supergas and Combat Boots
Both offer some support for long walks across campus and ensure no-fuss comfort so you can stay focused on what really matters (i.e. not your blisters). Supergas are perfect for warmer months but still look great with jeans, and combat boots can be worn either casually and unlaced with a skater skirt, or laced up with skinny jeans tucked into them. Versatility and comfort is key!
2. Delicate accessories
I've become much more inclined towards tiny little necklaces in simple metallic hues lately, but even if I was a lover of statement jewelry, I wouldn't say the lecture hall is the place to whip out your heaviest embellished metallic collar. Save it for the weekend and stay chic with timeless pieces for a more comfortable ensemble that doesn't have you fiddling all day. Tip: Don't wear clinky clanky bangles or bracelets on your writing hand to save yourself some glares across the lecture hall – no one wants to be that annoying person banging their arm candy on the desk! If you're typing on a computer, save any loose/noisy wrist jewelry for another day and opt for a multi-layered necklace instead.
3. Scarves
Don't let unpredictable weather and transitioning seasons (I'm talking about you, New England!) beat you to it. Having a scarf handy to keep you warm without a jacket, or simply to cover up exposed shoulders in an air conditioned room, is a must. Furthermore, if you're sporting a low-cut V-neck top or cleavage, loop your scarf around your neck – at least while you're in the classroom. Don't need your scarf? Tie it around your bag for a chic accent!
4. 2-in-1 Sweater-shirts
I don't even think that's what they're called, but I'm referring to the top on the left outfit with a built-in collar and hem sewn under the sweater. I am such a fan of these; not only do they look great with necklaces, but they are such an easy way to look smart without actually having to do any layering! Just make sure you give the polyester hems a bit of an iron or a steam before you wear them, as they can get really crinkly when folded. These are an easy way to look like you put some effort into what you wore, and can even dress up a pair of boyfriend jeans (although my favorite thing to do is wear these with skinny jeans and boots).
5. Whatever bag you want – as long as it FITS stuff in it!
Oversized totes are not only chic, they're perfect for stashing all your necessities for a full day in and out of the classroom. Who wants to be running back and forth to their dorm all day? Get a shoulder bag with a zip for extra security, or a backpack for hands-free convenience.

I first began thinking about fairies when I read a few books on communicating with plants. Fairies played an important role in all the books, teaching the authors to communicate with the world around them. I've recently begun sculpting figurines of tiny fairies sitting on flowers. In the center of each flower is a piece of mosaic glass. I put it there as a reminder that we're all just one important piece of a beautifully weird mosaic of everything around us. AND that like a mosaic, we can build our world peace by piece. I thought you might find them interesting. Including the flower, they are about 1.5 inches tall.
I also have a listing for custom fairy figurines.
They are for sale, but I made a special coupon code for this post. It's WINGS and it will take 30% off an order.
Thanks so much for taking the time to check this out.

Frederick Palmer (journalist)
Frederick Palmer (January 29, 1873 - September 2, 1958) was an American journalist and writer.
Born in Pleasantville, Pennsylvania, Palmer attended Allegheny College in Meadville, Pennsylvania.[1]
The New York Press hired Palmer in 1895 as its London correspondent; and this opportunity evolved into a long career.[1]
War correspondent[edit]
Palmer's 50 years as a war correspondent began when he was sent to cover the Greco-Turkish War of 1897 for the New York World and for Collier's magazine. He then covered the gold rush in northwestern Canada. The Philippine–American War (1899–1902) provided an opportunity for him to cross the Pacific bound for Manila.[1]
In 1900, Palmer went to China to cover the Boxer Rebellion (1900); and then he was sent to cover the Boer War (1899–1902) in South Africa.[1] Then the prospect of military conflict in Manchuria brought him back to China to cover the Russo-Japanese War (1904–1905) for the New York Globe.[2]
The New York Times sent Palmer to cover the Balkan War in 1912.[1]
In 1914, Palmer was arrested in Mexico City while covering the Tampico Affair (1914) and the United States occupation of Veracruz for Everybody's Magazine.[1]
World War I[edit]
General John Pershing persuaded him to take on the task of press accreditation for the American Expeditionary Force (AEF). In this period, he was accorded the rank of Colonel.[1] Palmer subsequently became the first war correspondent to win the U.S. Army's Distinguished Service Medal.
Between World War I and World War II, Palmer wrote thirty-one books, including Our Greatest Battle, based on his World War I experiences. In his books, he provided an analysis of the future impact of weapons and strategies he had seen, and soon after the end of World War I predicted that a second world war was on the horizon. He was awarded an honorary doctorate from Princeton University in 1935.

- 1899: In the Klondyke[3]
- 1901: The Ways of the Service[1]

Beethoven Complete Sonatas for Violin & Piano
Product notities
'Having performed together since childhood, [the Orfeo Duo's] sense of ensemble and communication is impeccable.... One of the selling points of this set is that these are unedited performances. The decision to forgo editing shifts the priority from creating an idealized interpretation to one of spontaneity and investigation. Indeed, the performances reveal raw, instinctive conversations. What we lose in editorial Polish, we gain in emotional directness. These are singularly passionate performances, and it is their honesty that binds the set together-- an undeniable synergy that is totally in keeping with Beethoven's confidence in the creative spirit.' -- Mark Zaki, Early Music America, Summer 2012 The Orfeo Duo, sister and brother Vita and Ishmael Wallace, are known for their close rapport with each other, power of communication, and creative programming. They've performed together since childhood, giving concerts and leading workshops throughout the Americas and in Europe. The duo has also made numerous recordings, including an unedited recording on original instruments of the complete sonatas of Robert Schumann, featuring the Frederick Historical Piano Collection's 1846 Streicher piano. Since 2003 Vita and Ishmael have devoted much of their creative energy to What a Neighborhood!, which celebrates their own neighborhood of Morningside Heights and West Harlem primarily through the music of living local composers, encouraging and inspiring composers, fostering appreciation of new American music, and nurturing a vibrant community that includes all the diversity of the area. Vita plays baroque violin in Anima, ARTEK, the Dryden Ensemble, and Foundling (a baroque orchestra) and is a frequent guest artist with other early music ensembles. Ishmael is deeply involved in collaborating with singers and has won many national competitions as a composer. The Frederick Historical Piano Collection in Ashburnham, MA, is home to over 25 grand pianos made between 1790 and 1928 of the types known to and preferred by composers from Haydn and Beethoven through the French Impressionists. Visitors may play them or hear them played at the Study Center and in concerts each Spring and Fall at the Ashburnham Community Church. Most of Beethoven's sonatas for violin and piano were written early in his life, between 1797 and 1803, a time of great awareness of the power of the human spirit and of the artist's role as prophet of that spirit. In France the Revolution had awakened hopes for freedom and overthrown the old order; in Germany the poet Novalis wrote, "Life must not be a novel that is given to us, but one that is made by us." Every listener to Beethoven's music feels this new assertiveness. Beethoven's power is usually described in terms of an individual's defiance of Fate, but there are so many more dimensions to it than this alone. There are similarities in form among the sonatas, and yet each one- indeed each movement- is unique. It is interesting to compare sonatas in the same key, or slow movements, or follow the appearances and disappearances of scherzi, the "joke" movements that Beethoven often substituted for minuets. The slow movements of Opus 23 and Opus 30 #3 are intriguing mixtures of slow movement and scherzo, slow movement and minuet. We are happy to present the first eight sonatas in the groups in which Beethoven composed them, writing several at a time. The sketches for the three Opus 30 sonatas are also intermingled with sketches for the last movement of Opus 47, because it was originally composed for Opus 30 no. 1. The new setting for this Presto was written for George Augustus Polgreen Bridgetower, a brilliant young violinist of mixed parentage: Polish and West Indian of Ethiopian descent. Beethoven jokingly inscribed the hastily copied-out score: "Sonata mulattica composta per il mulatto Brischdauer, gran pazzo e conpositore mulattico." There actually seems to be some truth in the inscription: the piece is a "big, crazy" half-concerto, half-sonata; half-major, half-minor; half-lofty, half-virtuosic-nonsense. Unlike most chamber music of the time, written for private enjoyment, this sonata was designed for public performance, at an eight AM concert in the Augarten. (After an argument with Bridgetower, Beethoven re-dedicated the sonata to the admirable French violinist Rudolphe Kreutzer, who considered it incomprehensible and never played it.) The last sonata, Opus 96, was actually the first we learned together. We were delighted to discover that it was especially written to suit another French violinist, Pierre Rode, who premiered it (privately) with Beethoven's student and patron Archduke Rudolf of Austria in 1812. A few days before, Beethoven wrote to the Archduke: 'I have not hurried unduly to compose the last movement merely for the sake of being punctual, the more so as in view of Rode's playing I have had to give more thought to the composition of this movement. In our Finales we like to have fairly noisy passages, but R. does not care for them- and so I have been rather hampered. - However, everything ought to go off well on Tuesday.' So perhaps we have Rode to thank for the Adagio that seems to drop down from heaven near the end of the piece. For these recordings, Ishmael played the splendid Viennese Katholnig piano (c. 1805-1810) in the Frederick Historical Piano Collection. It belonged to the Esterhäzy family, and it is possible that Beethoven himself played it on a visit to the Esterhäzy palace at Eisenstadt in 1807! The Katholnig's full and rich tone was the last kind of piano sound Beethoven was able to fully hear before becoming severely deaf. Vita chose to play her 1706 Albani violin in a period set-up with gut strings. She used a replica of a svelte 1720's bow for most of the sonatas: not only would such bows still have been in use in Vienna but also it is a joy to play the music with one. For Opus 30 no. 2, Opus 47, and Opus 96 she used a replica of one of the powerful Revolution-era French bows beginning to appear in Vienna at the turn of the century under the influence of violinists such as Bridgetower, Kreutzer, and Rode. We delighted in the sounds of these instruments and the perfect balance between them. At times we felt that the music was calling on us to play very much at the edge of the instruments' capacity, however. Early reviews of the Opus 12 sonatas remind us that even in the early sonatas Beethoven was pushing the boundaries of Classical harmony. Sometimes he leaps the boundaries of meter, using accents to leave the listener excitingly confused. Beethoven's own playing was reported to be not only more powerful and brilliant but also much more sustained and legato than his contemporaries'. His long slurs forced us to push the boundaries of our ability to sustain on both instruments. This recording was conceived and made possible by a long-time friend of the Frederick Piano Collection. We are deeply grateful for his support. Our anonymous benefactor suggested that we use complete, unedited takes of each movement, and we decided to take the challenge in a spirit of exploration! Live performances inevitably include both revelations and infelicities. The challenge of recording without editing shifted our priorities from technical correctness to inspiration and flow (or, as one friend put it, exuberance and reckless abandon), encouraging us to emulate Beethoven's disdain for punctilio and his trust in the creative spirit. -- Vita and Ishmael Wallace.

Back in December, Time released their annual list of the top ten medical breakthroughs. I completely forgot about this list until today, and figured that it was better late than never.
- AIDS Drugs Lower the Risk of HIV Infection – Antiretroviral drugs have turned the AIDS epidemic around, by thwarting the virus in HIV-positive patients. But new research suggests that this powerful treatment may have another benefit — as a weapon against infection in healthy individuals. Trials have the risk of contracting HIV lowered by up to 73%.
- Synthetic Cell – Dr. J. Craig Venter, co-mapper of the human genome, who this year took another step toward creating life in the lab. Generated from a painstaking process of stitching together the chemicals that compose DNA, Venter synthesized the entire genome of a bacterium, which was inserted into a cell and was able to replicate.
- Blood Test for Alzheimer's – A promising new blood test may help confirm a diagnosis early in the disease's progression, which opens the possibility for prevention of dementia and mental decline even before the earliest onset of symptoms. The new test analyzes more than two dozen proteins in the blood, and is 80% accurate in identifying patients with the disease. It is only the latest in a series of new methods, including tests of spinal fluid, aimed at detecting and confirming Alzheimer's earlier in patients' lives. Quicker diagnoses could help patients take advantage of behavioral interventions — such as keeping the mind active by maintaining social contacts and learning new things — that may slow the mental deterioration of Alzheimer's.
- FDA Approves Botox for Migraines – Some patients who received Botox injections to prevent wrinkles in their forehead reported that their migraines also seemed to diminish, scientists — especially those at Allergan, the manufacturer of Botox — decided to investigate. Based on data from two large trials involving more than 1,000 patients, the company successfully convinced the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that patients receiving Botox in the facial area experienced fewer days of migraine pain each month than those who did not get the muscle paralyzing injections.
- Taking the Resuscitation out of CPR – In recent years, several studies have found that untrained bystanders are more comfortable performing chest compressions, without mouth-to-mouth — even with the help of a trained 911 operator — and that victims who receive only compressions are as likely to survive as those who receive full CPR. These results, coupled with the fact that only 30% of those in need of CPR actually get it — in large part because of untrained bystanders' reluctance to perform what they view as a complex procedure — forced the AHA to revise its CPR guidelines. (via)
- The FDA Restricts Avandia
- Blood Test for Heart Attack – researchers have now identified a preliminary panel of 23 genes that code for blood proteins, which was 83% accurate in detecting blood-vessel obstructions typical of heart disease.
- Predicting IVF Success
- Artificial Ovary
- Creating iPS Cells Safer and Faster

Five Questions: The Graduate
Fri, 13 Apr 2007 16:57:48
The Graduate Videos
Emerging from the midwest indie circuit, the five members of the Graduate have gone from virtual unknowns to cover boys for CMJ magazine. And with their debut album, Anhedonia, hitting stores this week (April 10th), they're poised for even greater success.
Lead singer Corey Warning fielded our five questions to shed some light on where he and his bandmates get their inspiration.
1. Name a musician who has influenced your sound, but that people may not expect.
2. Who or what inspires you to make music?
Everything from other bands, movies, friends/family, girlfriends, life in general.
3. Was there a driving concept behind your new album?
Anhedonia is a clinical term for a person who can't feel pleasure from normal things that would make a person happy. While we were writing the album, I was having a really hard time getting inspired and often felt like this.
4. What's the most exciting part of the actual music-making process for you?
Once a song is finished structurally and we get to add all the "extra" stuff.
5. If you could pick a dream band to open for, past or present, who would it be?
Elliott Smith.
The Graduate's debut full-length album, Anhedonia, is available now in the ARTISTdirect Store.

Our History
EHTP began in 1958 as a children's reading group in a local resident's living room; it has since grown into a multi-site after-school program for traditional public school students and a public charter school operator focused on significantly increasing the college graduation rate in East Harlem.
More than 15,000 East Harlem youth and their families have walked through our doors and improved their academic skills, developed confidence, and found community.
Until the late 1980's, EHTP was a volunteer-run reading program. In 2008, it remained a minimally staffed (about 30 FTE's) drop-in after-school program. As of the start of the 2015-16 school year, we are an organization with a $16 million annual operating budget that offers assessment driven, college-prep after-school and public charter school programs for nearly 1200 students, with over 170 staff and 200 volunteers working across five locations.

Thanks to all for a great 2016! We are already working hard on making next year an even more amazing spectacle. Want to be part of our 10th anniversary celebrations? For international groups, we have a yearly deadline of October 20th (read the Perform at WMDF pages, going through the numbered sections 1 to 4 to get full application information). For making suggestions to improve our event check our tenth anniversary page. Or, for sponsoring suggestions, check out our Deals and Sponsor pages. The picture here combines "Sai", the shortened name of our festival, with a Japanese kanji character read as "ten". The kanji has many meanings, including "develop" and "expand". "Saiten" (using different Japanese characters) is also one way of saying "festival". So, all at once this image represents the tenth year of WMDF, the whole idea of events, and our goal to make next year even better!
A Gourmet "Thank You"
WMDF is co-located with the MoguMogu Festival, bringing you "More Goods, More Gourmet" from around the world. This year, MoguFes outdid itself with a record number of booths and an amazing selection. Thanks to all involved in making an incredible atmosphere. We hope for many new ideas to make our tenth anniversary the best yet! You can send us suggestions or random praise by looking at our tenth anniversary page. See you for the party next year!
Final Schedule 2016 & Second Artist Announcement
Thank you for your patience, we have now publicly released the final schedule for this year's event, plus a site map and much more. Go to the Events page or click on the image on the right to directly open an A3 pdf file in a new window. We hope you will enjoy savouring the anticipation of seeing your favourite acts, and we look forward to seeing you in Motomachi Park!
Please note that WMDF reserves the right to change the schedule without notice: the most current version will always be the version online.

By the time this picture was taken in 2001, the car hiding in the background wasn't a secret anymore. But in its day, it was one of Audi's greatest behind-the-scenes projects.
Behind the then-new first-generation Audi TT and the original Audi Quattro is Audi's Group S prototype.
You can read a full history of the car right here on IEDEI, but I'll give you a quick summary.
