1854 Spruner Map of Europe under Charlemagne
EuropeCharlemagne-spruner-1854Karl von Spruner (November 15, 1803 - August 24, 1892) or Spruner Karl von Merz or Spruneri was a Stuttgart born cartographer, scientist, and map publisher active in Germany during the middle part of the 19th century. Joining the Bavarian army at the tender age of 11, Spruner dedicated most of his life to military service. Spruner's superiors, recognizing his keen intellect, eventually assigned him to the army's cartographic division. Military education earned him the title of Doctor of Cartography in 1852. In 1855 he attained the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel and, in 1883, General. Cartographically, Spruner is best known for his historical atlases, most of which were published by the Justus Perthes firm. His much admired maps studiously applied historical political geographies to contemporary physical geographies. Spruner also worked with Heinrich Theodore Menke, a well-known German mapmaker, to produce and later revise his many historical maps. In 1886, after 72 years of professional military service, Spruner formally retired. He died seven years later in Munich in on August 24th of 1892. More by this mapmaker...
Johan Georg Justus Perthes (September 11, 1749 - May 2, 1816) was one of the most important German cartographic engravers of the 19th century. He was born in the Thuringian town of Rudolstadt, the son of a court physician. In 1778, he began working as a bookseller in Gotha. Perthes began his publishing empire shortly thereafter with the 1784 issue of the famed survey of European nobility known as the Almanac de Gotha. In the next year, 1785, he founded the cartographic firm of Justus Perthes Geographische Anstalt Gotha. His son Wilhelm Perthes (1793 - 1853) joined the firm in 1814. Wilhelm had prior publishing experience at the firm of Justus Perthes' nephew, Friedrich Christoph Perthes, who ran a publishing house in Hamburg. After Justus Perthes died in 1816, Wilhelm took charge and laid the groundwork for the firm to become a cartographic publishing titan. From 1817 to 1890. the Perthes firm issued thousands of maps and more than 20 different atlases. Along with the visionary editors Hermann Berghaus (1797 - 1884), Adolph Stieler (1775 - 1836), and Karl Spruner (1803 - 1892), the Perthes firm pioneered the Hand Atlas. When Wilhelm retired, management of the firm passed to his son, Bernhardt Wilhelm Perthes (1821 – 1857). Bernhardt brought on the cartographic geniuses August Heinrich Peterman (1822 - 1878) and Bruno Hassenstein (1839 - 1902). The firm was subsequently passed to a fourth generation in the form of Berhanrd Perthes (1858 – 1919), Bernhard Wilhelm's son. The firm continued in the family until 1953 when, being in East Germany, it was nationalized and run as a state-owned enterprise as VEB Hermann Haack Geographisch-Kartographische Anstalt Gotha. The Justus family, led by Joachim Justus Perthes and his son Wolf-Jürgen Perthes, relocated to Darmstadt where they founded the Justus Perthes Geographische Verlagsanstalt Darmstadt. Learn More...

Note: We've asked NPR journalists to share their top five (or so) political Twitter accounts, and we're featuring the series on #FollowFriday. Here are recommendations from Elise Hu (@elisewho), an NPR digital reporter who previously covered campaigns and statehouses in Texas, South Carolina and Missouri.
An unabashed Twit-vangelist, I started using Twitter during the run-up to the 2008 presidential election to stay up-to-date on news, but, more important, to be part of community conversations that consistently guide me, amuse me and alert me to everything from Siri to Syria. (Find out how long you've been tweeting with this handy service.)
If you're a political junkie and a Twitter vet, you're probably already following the fan favorites (read: BuzzFeed's Ben Smith (@buzzfeedben), The New York Times' Nate Silver (@fivethirtyeight). But just in case you're missing an obvious follow, CBS political director and longtime Slate correspondent John Dickerson (@jdickerson) is my favorite among political journos on Twitter. Someone once called him the Lao Tzu of the form.
Also, our friends across the pond at The Guardian this week put together a handy list of their top 50 tweeters on the U.S presidential race, broken down by pollsters, pundits, parties, feeds and journalists. So this list below is an attempt to highlight some of the lesser-known, topical or local political tweeters you might enjoy:
This year the economy is obviously the marquee election issue, so in addition to political sources I've been following a lot of great economics reporters and sources. There's my pal Sudeep Reddy (@reddy), a global economics reporter for The Wall Street Journal whose feed will be helpful as he follows the continuing crisis in the eurozone; the edgy Matt Yglesias (@mattyglesias) at Slate; and of course, the team at Planet Money (@planetmoney).
Speaking of money, go beyond incremental trail coverage with Dave Levinthal, (@davelevinthal), an ace campaign finance reporter at Politico. He provides both breaking headlines and plenty of context on all the cash flowing into campaign coffers this year.
Now, to a handful (but woefully incomplete list) of local accounts. Depending on your geographic areas of interest, there is Virginia political blogger Vivian Paige (@vpaige), Miami Herald political writer Marc Caputo (@marcacaputo), the investigative outfit California Watch (@californiawatch), Texas conservative Melissa Clouthier (@melissatweets), The Dallas Morning News' Wayne Slater (@wayneslater), and New York city hall and Albany coverage from the New York Daily News (@DNDailyPolitics).
Finally, for biting political commentary that will crack you up, follow comedian Andy Borowitz (@BorowitzReport) and add a little levity to your feed. And please tweet me — @elisewho — with recommendations we've missed over the last few weeks so we can keep this conversation going on Twitter. See you in cyberspace.
Follow our recommendations so far, and get future picks, here: https://twitter.com/#!/nprpolitics/the-npr-twitterati

If Syrian President Bashar Assad gets desperate enough he will use chemical weapons against his own people, the former chief of staff for that country's chemical weapons tells NPR's Deborah Amos.
Maj. Gen. Adnan Sillu, who defected in July and is now in Turkey, is convinced that if rebel forces close in on Damascus, Assad will order the use of mustard gas, sarin or other chemicals in a "last desperate act," Deb reported today on Morning Edition.
And as Deb told NPR's Renee Montagne, Syria is thought to have the largest undeclared cache of chemical weapons in the world.
If Assad did order their use, though, many analysts say he would be committing "regime suicide" because the U.S. and other nations would take swift and decisive action.
Sillu has been warning about what Assad may do with the chemical weapons since soon after he defected. In September, he told The Times of London that:
"He had been party to top-level talks on the deployment of chemical weapons against rebel fighters and civilians in Syria's second largest city. 'We were in a serious discussion about the use of chemical weapons, including how we would use them and in what areas. We discussed this as a last resort — such as if the regime lost control of an important area such as Aleppo,' Gen.Sillu said in his first interview since his defection. The meeting, held at Syria's chemical weapons center [8 kilometers] south of Damascus, was the 'last straw' for the general, who said he defected because he was convinced the regime would use the weapons against civilians."
With opposition fighters making steady progress against Assad's forces, however, the concern about those chemical weapons has only increased since September.
There is a more hopeful sign today, though. As CBS News reports:
"The Obama administration Tuesday appeared to temper its recent assertions that the Syrian government may be preparing to use chemical weapons, with Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta telling reporters the relevant intelligence had 'really kind of leveled off.'
" 'We haven't seen anything new indicating any aggressive steps to move forward in that way,' Panetta told reporters during a flight to Kuwait, adding that U.S. officials 'continue to monitor it very closely and we continue to make clear to them that they should not under any means make use of these chemical weapons against their own population. That would produce serious consequences.' "

How to Select a Gearbox
When you drive your vehicle, the gearbox provides you with traction and speed. The lower gear provides the most traction, while the higher gear has the most speed. Selecting the right gear for your driving conditions will help you maximize both. The right gearing will vary based on road conditions, load, and speed. Short gearing will accelerate you more quickly, while tall gearing will increase top speed. However, you should understand how to use the gearbox before driving.
The function of the gearbox is to transmit rotational energy to the machine's drive train. The ratio between input and output torque is the ratio of the torque to the speed of rotation. Gearboxes have many different functions. A gearbox may have multiple functions or one function that is used to drive several other machines. If one gear is not turning, the other will be able to turn the gearbox. This is where the gearbox gets its name.
The pitch-controlled system has an equal number of failure modes as the electrical system, accounting for a large proportion of the longest machine downtime and halt time. The relationship between mechanisms and faults is not easily modeled mathematically. Failure modes of gearboxes are shown in Fig. 3. A gearbox's true service life is six to eight years. However, a gearbox's fault detection process must be developed as mature technology is required to reduce the downtime and avoid catastrophic incidents.
A gearbox is a vital piece of machinery. It processes energy produced by an engine to move the machine's parts. A gearbox's efficiency depends on how efficiently it transfers energy. The higher the ratio, the more torque is transferred to the wheels. It is a common component of bicycles, cars, and a variety of other devices. Its four major functions include:
In addition to ensuring gearbox reliability, a gearbox's maintainability should be evaluated in the design phase. Maintainability considerations should be integrated into the gearbox design, such as the type of spare parts available. An appropriate maintenance regime will also determine how often to replace or repair specific parts. A proper maintenance procedure will also ensure that the gearbox is accessible. Whether it is easy to access or difficult to reach, accessibility is essential.
A car's transmission connects the engine to the wheels, allowing a higher-speed crankshaft to provide leverage. High-torque engines are necessary for the vehicle's starting, acceleration, and meeting road resistance. The gearbox reduces the engine's speed and provides torque variations at the wheels. The transmission also provides reversing power, making it possible to move the vehicle backwards and forwards.
Gears transmit power from one shaft to another. The size of the gears and number of teeth determine the amount of torque the unit can transmit. A higher gear ratio means more torque, but slower speed. The gearbox's lever moves the engaging part on the shaft. The lever also slides the gears and synchronizers into place. If the lever slips to the left or right, the engine operates in second gear.
Gearboxes need to be closely monitored to reduce the likelihood of premature failure. Various tests are available to detect defective gear teeth and increase machine reliability. Figure 1.11(a) and (b) show a gearbox with 18 teeth and a 1.5:1 transmission ratio. The input shaft is connected to a sheave and drives a "V" belt. This transmission ratio allows the gearbox to reduce the speed of the motor, while increasing torque and reducing output speed.
When it comes to speed reduction, gear box is the most common method for reducing motor torque. The torque output is directly proportional to the volume of the motor. A small gearbox, for example, can produce as much torque as a large motor with the same output speed. The same holds true for the reverse. There are hybrid drives and in-line gearboxes. Regardless of the type, knowing about the functions of a gearbox will make it easier to choose the right one for your specific application.
When selecting a gearbox, the service factor must be considered. Service factor is the difference between the actual capacity of the gearbox and the value required by the application. Additional requirements for the gearbox may result in premature seal wear or overheating. The service factor should be as low as possible, as it could be the difference between the lifetime of the gearbox and its failure. In some cases, a gearbox's service factor can be as high as 1.4, which is sufficient for most industrial applications.
China dominates the renewable energy industry, with the largest installed capacity of 1000 gigawatts and more than 2000 terawatt hours of electricity generated each year. The growth in these sectors is expected to increase the demand for gearboxes. For example, in China, wind and hydropower energy production are the major components of wind and solar power plants. The increased installation capacity indicates increased use of gearboxes for these industries. A gearbox that is not suitable for its application will not be functional, which may be detrimental to the production of products in the country.
A gearbox can be mounted in one of four different positions. The first three positions are concentric, parallel, or right angle, and the fourth position is shaft mount. A shaft mount gearbox is typically used in applications where the motor can't be mounted via a foot. These positions are discussed in more detail below. Choosing the correct gearbox is essential in your business, but remember that a well-designed gearbox will help your bottom line.
The service factor of a gearbox is dependent on the type of load. A high shock load, for example, can cause premature failure of the gear teeth or shaft bearings. In such cases, a higher service factor is required. In other cases, a gearbox that is designed for high shock loads can withstand such loads without deteriorating its performance. Moreover, it will also reduce the cost of maintaining the gearbox over time.
When choosing the material for your gearbox, you must balance the strength, durability, and cost of the design. This article will discuss the different types of materials and their respective applications and power transmission calculations. A variety of alloys are available, each of which offers its own advantages, including improved hardness and wear resistance. The following are some of the common alloys used in gears. The advantage of alloys is their competitive pricing. A gear made from one of these materials is usually stronger than its counterparts.
The carbon content of SPCC prevents the material from hardening like SS. However, thin sheets made from SPCC are often used for gears with lower strength. Because of the low carbon content, SPCC's surface doesn't harden as quickly as SS gears do, so soft nitriding is needed to provide hardness. However, if you want a gear that won't rust, then you should consider SS or FCD.
In addition to cars, gearboxes are also used in the aerospace industry. They are used in space travel and are used in airplane engines. In agriculture, they are used in irrigation, pest and insect control machinery, and plowing machines. They are also used in construction equipment like cranes, bulldozers, and tractors. Gearboxes are also used in the food processing industry, including conveyor systems, kilns, and packaging machinery.
The teeth of the gears in your gearbox are important when it comes to performance. A properly meshing gear will allow the gears to achieve peak performance and withstand torque. Gear teeth are like tiny levers, and effective meshing reduces stress and slippage. A stationary parametric analysis will help you determine the quality of meshing throughout the gearing cycle. This method is often the most accurate way to determine whether your gears are meshing well.
The global gear market is divided into five key regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America. Among these regions, Asia Pacific is expected to generate the largest GDP, owing to rapidly growing energy demand and investments in industrial infrastructure. This region is also home to some of the largest manufacturing bases, and its continuous building of new buildings and homes will support the industry's growth. In terms of application, gearboxes are used in construction, agricultural machinery, and transportation.
The Industrial Gearbox market is anticipated to expand during the next several years, driven by the rapid growth of the construction industry and business advancements. However, there are several challenges that hamper the growth of the industry. These include the high cost of operations and maintenance of gear units. This report covers the market size of industrial gearboxes globally, as well as their manufacturing technologies. It also includes manufacturer data for the period of 2020-2024. The report also features a discussion of market drivers and restraints.
Global health crisis and decreasing seaborne commerce have moderately adverse effects on the industry. Falling seaborne commerce has created a barrier to investment. The value of international crude oil is expected to cross USD 0 by April 2020, putting an end to new assets development and exploitation. In such a scenario, the global gearbox market will face many challenges. However, the opportunities are huge. So, the market for industrial gearboxes is expected to grow by more than 6% by 2020, thanks to the increasing number of light vehicles sold in the country.
The main shaft of a gearbox, also known as the output shaft, spins at different speeds and transfers torque to an automobile. The output shaft is splined so that a coupler and gear can be connected to it. The counter shaft and primary shaft are supported by bearings, which reduce friction in the spinning element. Another important part of a gearbox is the gears, which vary in tooth count. The number of teeth determines how much torque a gear can transfer. In addition, the gears can glide in any position.

Microsoft's bolt from the Blue: How Redmond expects to keep Windows and Windows Phone fresh
We've known for a while that Microsoft will be working on its first set of updates for Windows 8, codenamed "Blue". But now, according to ZDNet, Microsoft is said to be expanding the coverage of said update to reach beyond the realm of Windows. Blue is also referring to Windows Phone, cloud services (SkyDrive, Outlook.com, etc.) and Windows Server. It's a wave of upgrades which are not believed to be arriving on the very same day, but very close to one another.
The set of refreshes under the Blue umbrella will arrive after a constant stream of minor fixes, firmware updates, as well as new features and functionality. Portico is serving as the first minor update since Windows Phone 8 launched late last year and is not part of "Blue". As we covered in our previous report, Microsoft is looking to release timely updates.
This is a change from how the company generally operates, releasing upgrades for products every handful of years. The goal is to hit a yearly target for releases to be pushed out to customers. This will start with Blue. As well as the more frequent quantity, Microsoft is also said to be looking at ways to fire out major updates to its Windows desktop operating system to consumers quicker - Windows Store is a possibility.
What's coming in Blue?
Unfortunately, while details are coming to light about frequency of updates, as well as Microsoft's plan on how to go about refreshing a number of products and services, we're still none the wise on just what's included in Blue. That said, ZDNet's source does note that tweaks to the user experience, new developer platform related bits and pieces, as well as new versions of Internet Explorer, Mail, Calendar, Bing and other system apps are to be expected.
Blue will also include kernel and driver-level improvements, which are planned to affect battery life and overall performance, but backward compatibility with Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 is priority. Lastly, instead of Windows 9, 10, 11 as successors after Blue, Microsoft will be looking at releasing upgrades in favour of new versions of Windows to help prolong the life of Windows 8.
Update: We can now add our own confirmation (via an inside source) to "Blue" as the codename for a future OS update for Windows Phone. Alas, it's not right around the corner so think more long term here.

New global rule: Banks must keep more cash to weather crises
| Berlin
International banking regulators agreed Sunday on global rules meant to ensure banks keep enough cash in hand to survive future market crises, and gave banks until 2019 to comply fully.
The rules will require banks in the future to hold enough cash, and assets such as equities, corporate and government bonds that can easily be sold, to tide them over during an acute 30-day crisis.
The body that oversees the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, which sets international rules, said Sunday that they will have to hold 60 percent of that amount when the rules start being phased in on Jan. 1, 2015; that will increase by 10 percentage points every year until the standards take full effect at the beginning of 2019.
The oversight body's head, Bank of England governor Mervyn King, said after regulators met in Basel, Switzerland, that the time frame ensures the new standards "will in no way hinder the ability of the global banking system to finance the recovery." The hope is that it will prevent lenders from becoming over-reliant in the future on help from central banks, which have stepped in over recent years to keep the financial system flush with cash.
King said that "the vast majority" of the world's biggest banks "already hold liquid assets well above the minimum required by this standard."
The rules are part of wider efforts to prevent another shock to the financial system like that prompted by Lehman Brothers' 2008 collapse, which led to taxpayer-funded bailouts of banks in the US and Europe.
They are part of the so-called Basel III package of reforms. That package will require lenders to increase their highest-quality capital — such as equity and cash reserves — gradually from 2 percent of the risky assets they hold to 7 percent by 2019.

There's nothing fun about getting a slobbery wet kiss from a dog or a cat with bad breath! Bad breath, also known as halitosis, is generally caused by excessive build-up of odor -producing bacteria inside your pet's mouth, lungs, or even gut. While most cases of bad breath can be traced back to poor oral hygiene, in some cases, bad breath could be symptomatic of a more serious health problem.
Treating bad breath starts by identifying the cause and taking steps to correct the underlying problem. Other than dental disease, causes of bad breath are oral tumors, tonsillitis, or foreign material in the mouth or voice box area. Even systemic diseases like kidney disease and diabetes can cause a change in the odor of the breath.
However, bad breath in dogs and cats is most commonly linked to the build up of bacteria in the mouth due to poor oral hygiene. In fact, bad breath is the most common warning sign of dental disease. Periodontal disease starts out as plaque. Plaque is a biofilm that contains bacteria which causes gingivitis. Over time, plaque hardens, forming a substance known as tartar. Plaque and tartar lead to swollen, inflamed gums, along with bad breath.
Abscessed teeth are also common in dogs. These can result from bad periodontal disease, or from a fractured or worn tooth that allows bacteria to move up the canal in the middle of the tooth to the tip where it causes an abscess to form. These abscesses can also cause bad breath.
The best cure for bad breath is to prevent it before it happens. In order to best keep your pet's breath under control, schedule a yearly dental check-up with your pet's veterinarian. Veterinary organizations recommend annual dental exams and cleanings for pets.
Additionally, veterinary dentists recommend that pet owners brush their pet's teeth on a daily basis. Brushing teeth is the best way to cut back on tartar buildup and help control bad breath.
Finally, give your pets access to safe chew toys. Chew toys not only help reduce your pet's stress level and eliminate boredom, but these toys can help to reduce tartar buildup. Be sure to use a chew toy approved by the Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOHC). Chew toys that are too soft are a danger because pieces may be swallowed causing an obstruction. Chew toys that are too hard, such as nylon, bones, and antlers break teeth. Rope toys can cause threads to get caught between the teeth.

It's a miracle, though we're not quite sure of the details yet.
A Vatican official confirms that a committee of theologians has approved a second miracle attributed to Pope John Paul II's posthumous intercession — a sine qua non for sainthood.
Italian media say a Costa Rican woman was cured of a severe brain injury after her family prayed to the memory of the late pope. The Vatican is set to release details in the next week or so.
The Telegraph reports that it occurred on the very day of John Paul's beatification, on May 1, 2011.
Another miracle attributed to the former pope was approved by the Vatican's Congregation for the Causes of Saints in 2011. It involved the healing of a French nun, who reportedly recovered from Parkinson's disease in 2005 after praying to the late John Paul. The Catholic Church maintains that there is no medical explanation for the nun's recovery.
According to The Associated Press:
"The case now goes to a commission of cardinals and then Pope Francis. John Paul's canonization is possible in autumn to coincide with the 35th anniversary of his election, though the official said Wednesday on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to reveal details about the case that it may be too soon."
The New York Times lays out the rules for sainthood here.
John Paul has been on the fast track to sainthood since his successor, Pope Benedict XVI, waived the traditional five-year waiting period to begin the process.

Performance/Accumulating parameter
Haskell Performance Resource
Constructs: Techniques: |
Accumulating Parameters: Getting rid of the 'almost' in "almost tail recursive"
Often times you will write a recursive function which is almost tail recursive. Consider this naïve implementation of a function to compute the length of a list.
len :: [a] -> Int
len [] = 0
len (x:xs) = len xs + 1
Compile and run a simple program like the following:
main = print $ len [1..200000]
Profiling the above, I found that it took 0.20 seconds to run. Increasing that number to 1000000 results in a stack overflow.
The above function seems to delegate most of the actual work to the recursive case. The only thing keeping it from being tail recursive is the requirement to increment the length of the remainder of the list.
We can move this increment step into an accumulating parameter. This is an extra parameter that allows us to carry information along in the computation.
len' :: [a] -> Int -> Int
len' [] acc = acc
len' (x:xs) acc = len' xs (1 + acc)
Now the function is tail recursive. The accumulating parameter is returned in some form by the base case, and in the inductive case, we perform the step that prevented us from being truly tail recursive. We should provide a wrapper function that hides the detail of that accumulating parameter from users of the function.
len xs = len' xs 0
Running the above program with the new definition gives me a runtime of 0.02 seconds.
The performance gain came from the tail recursive implementation. The problem with the stack overflow was the result of keeping a long list of computations to do after "this next step." The tail recursive version eliminated the need to store all these computational intermediaries.
Accumulating parameters is merely a means to turn an almost tail recursive implementation into a tail recursive implementation. The pattern to apply this technique to are ones which involve a tail recursion and a cons step. This latter step is performed on the accumulator and then passed into the tail recursive step.
We need to fix a small problem with regards to the stack overflow. The function would accumulate (1 + acc) thunks as we pass down the list. In general, it makes sense to make your accumulator parameters strict, since its value will be needed at the very end. A better implementation would be:
len' [] acc = acc
len' (x:xs) acc = len' xs $! (1 + acc)
This explicitly evaluates 1 + acc before performing the tail recursion. This prevents the stack overflow.
Doing the right thing automatically using standard higher order functions
If you want to be sure to use a tail recursive pattern then use appropriate higher order functions from the standard libraries. The first tail recursive version is equivalent to
len = foldl (\acc x -> 1+acc) 0
and the second one can be written as
len = foldl' (\acc x -> 1+acc) 0

The date is of particular importance, because nearly every discussion of the role of Tolkien's work in influencing Gary Gygax is based on evidence from a much later date, after the threatened lawsuit against TSR by the Tolkien estate. Indeed, many commentators presume, based on this fact, that Gary had to have been, at the very least, disingenuous when he downplayed the influence of Tolkien and that his doing so was based primarily on his desire to distance TSR from its having infringed Tolkien's copyrights. I've never bought this theory, feeling that the bare text of D&D, even in its original form, with all those references to hobbits and ents and orcs, pretty clearly showed that Tolkien was, at best, a superficial influence on the game as Gygax conceived it.
The article probably won't settle the matter definitively -- we gamers like to argue, after all -- but I do think it'll go a long way toward putting to rest the notion that Gygax was lying when he later claimed that Tolkien's work mostly provided a handful of creatures that he gleefully looted in an effort to ride the coattails of their popularity during the 1970s. Here's what Gygax says -- in 1974, remember -- about the role of Tolkien as compared to other authors:
What other sources of fantasy can compare to J.R.R. Tolkien? Obviously, Professor Tolkien did not create the whole of his fantasies from within. They draw upon mythology and folklore rather heavily, with a few highly interesting creations which belong solely to the author such as the Nazgul, the Balrog, and Tom Bombadil. All of the other creatures are found in fairy tales by the score and dozens of other excellent writers who create fantasy works themselves: besides Howard whom I already mentioned, there are the likes of Poul Anderson, L. Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt, Fritz Leiber, H.P. Lovecraft, A. Merritt, Michael Moorcock, Jack Vance, and Roger Zelazny -- there are many more, and the ommission [sic] of their names here is more of an oversight than a slight. In the creation of Chainmail and Dungeons & Dragons the concepts of not a few of such authors were drawn upon. This is principally due to the different aims of a fantasy novel (or series of novels) and a rule book for fantasy games. The former creation is to amuse and entertain the reader through the means of the story and its characters, while the latter creates characters and possibly a story which the readers then employ to amuse themselves. In general the "Ring Trilogy" is not fast paced, and outside the framework of the tale many of Tolkien's creatures are not very exciting or different.Perhaps I am irredeemably biased but that passage sounds an awful lot like something Gygax could have written in 1984. Indeed, it's remarkably like his standard line about the influence of Tolkien on D&D and his critique of The Lord of the Rings as "boring." He goes on:
Tolkien includes a number of heroic figures, but they are not of the "Conan" stamp. They are not larger-than-life swashbucklers who fear neither monster nor magic. His wizards are either ineffectual or else they lurk in their strongholds working magic spells which seem to have little if any effect while their gross and stupid minions bungle their plans for supremacy. Religion with its attendant gods and priests he includes not at all. These considerations, as well as a comparison of the creatures of Tolkien's writings with the models they were drawn from (or with a hypothetical counterpart desirable from a wargame standpoint) were in mind when Chainmail and Dungeons & Dragons were created.Gygax then goes on to cite numerous examples of where Tolkien's creations were and were not a model for those in Chainmail and D&D, in addition to pointing where he borrowed just as heavily from other sources, notably Anderson's Three Hearts and Three Lions. Throughout, his repeated point is that, while both games "owe a great deal to him," "fantasy wargaming goes beyond Tolkien" because, in fantasy, "there are no absolutes or final boundaries simply because it does draw upon all of these sources with the bonus of individual imagination added by those who play it."
Take several of Tolkien's heroic figures for example. Would a participant in a fantasy game more readily identify with Bard of Dale? Aragorn? Frodo Baggins? or would he rather relate to Conan, Fafhrd, the Grey Mouser, or Elric of Melnibone? The answer seems all too obvious.
As I said, the article settles nothing. If anything, it muddies the waters a little further insofar as Gygax readily acknowledges the debt both his games owed to Tolkien for some of their integral ideas. At the same time, I also think it clarifies beyond any doubt that Gary's repeated dislike for Tolkien and his denial that it was a good model for fantasy roleplaying was not merely a consequence of the threatened lawsuit by Tolkien's estate. Rather, it reflected a longstanding and heartfelt belief on his part, a belief that certainly ossified as the years went on and he grew ever more irritated by the extent to which Tolkien (and his epic fantasy imitators) were deemed the ne plus ultra of fantasy, an opinion Gygax never shared -- even in 1974, before he had any reason to claim otherwise.

Apache HTTP Server Version 2.4
Access control refers to any means of controlling access to any resource. This is separate from authentication and authorization.
Access control can be done by several different modules. The most
important of these are mod_authz_core
. Also discussed in this document
is access control using mod_rewrite
If you wish to restrict access to portions of your site based on the
host address of your visitors, this is most easily done using
The Require
provides a variety of different ways to allow or deny access to
resources. In conjunction with the RequireAll
, RequireAny
, and RequireNone
directives, these
requirements may be combined in arbitrarily complex ways, to enforce
whatever your access policy happens to be.
The Allow
, and
provided by mod_access_compat
, are deprecated and
will go away in a future version. You should avoid using them, and
avoid outdated tutorials recommending their use.
The usage of these directives is:
Require host address Require ip ip.address
In the first form, address is a fully qualified domain name (or a partial domain name); you may provide multiple addresses or domain names, if desired.
In the second form, ip.address is an IP address, a partial IP address, a network/netmask pair, or a network/nnn CIDR specification. Either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses may be used.
See the mod_authz_host documentation for further examples of this syntax.
You can insert not
to negate a particular requirement.
Note, that since a not
is a negation of a value, it cannot
be used by itself to allow or deny a request, as not true
does not constitute false. Thus, to deny a visit using a negation,
the block must have one element that evaluates as true or false.
For example, if you have someone spamming your message
board, and you want to keep them out, you could do the
<RequireAll> Require all granted Require not ip 10.252.46.165 </RequireAll>
Visitors coming from that address (10.252.46.165
will not be able to see the content covered by this directive. If,
instead, you have a machine name, rather than an IP address, you
can use that.
Require not host host.example.com
And, if you'd like to block access from an entire domain, you can specify just part of an address or domain name:
Require not ip 192.168.205 Require not host phishers.example.com moreidiots.example Require not host gov
Use of the RequireAll
, RequireAny
, and RequireNone
directives may be
used to enforce more complex sets of requirements.
Using the <If>
you can allow or deny access based on arbitrary environment
variables or request header values. For example, to deny access
based on user-agent (the browser type) you might do the
<If "%{HTTP_USER_AGENT} == 'BadBot'"> Require all denied </If>
Using the Require
syntax, this could also be written as:
Require expr %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} != 'BadBot'
Access control by User-Agent
is an unreliable technique,
since the User-Agent
header can be set to anything at all,
at the whim of the end user.
See the expressions document for a further discussion of what expression syntaxes and variables are available to you.
The [F]
flag causes a 403 Forbidden
response to be sent. Using this, you can deny access to a resource based
on arbitrary criteria.
For example, if you wish to block access to a resource between 8pm
and 6am, you can do this using mod_rewrite
RewriteEngine On RewriteCond "%{TIME_HOUR}" ">=20" [OR] RewriteCond "%{TIME_HOUR}" "<07" RewriteRule "^/fridge" "-" [F]
This will return a 403 Forbidden response for any request after 8pm or before 7am. This technique can be used for any criteria that you wish to check. You can also redirect, or otherwise rewrite these requests, if that approach is preferred.
The <If>
added in 2.4, replaces many things that mod_rewrite
traditionally been used to do, and you should probably look there first
before resorting to mod_rewrite.
The expression engine gives you a great deal of power to do a variety of things based on arbitrary server variables, and you should consult that document for more detail.
Also, you should read the mod_authz_core
documentation for examples of combining multiple access requirements
and specifying how they interact.

5 Ways To Spread Holiday Cheer To Your Neighbors
Being known as the "new kid on the block" in a new area you just moved to can be a pretty scary thought. Meeting and connecting with your new neighbors can help ease your stress and make you feel more comfortable in your new neighborhood. Here are 5 foolproof ways to be a friendly and familiar face to your new neighbors.
Knock, Knock! Who's there?
Knock on your neighbor's door and introduce yourself! This may be a thing of the past, but it's a simple task that won't take too long. You can simply just give them your name and phone number and let them know you'll be sharing a fence with them now. Introductions can go a long way and will surely make a good impression on your new neighbors.
Sweet talk them
If simply knocking and introducing yourself sounds too overwhelming, bring over a plate of cookies or some sweets. This kind gesture will definitely leave a lasting impression on your neighbors, and who doesn't love sweets?!
Be the cool parent
If you notice your neighbors also have kids, then this can be a huge way to break the ice. Arrange a play date or ask them about local parks they can play at. If they go to the same schools, you can even suggest carpooling (we recommend waiting before trying this as you could scare off your neighbors by asking their kids to get in a car with strangers… you want to come off nice and reliable not creepy!)
Spend time outside
You're never going to meet anyone if you're cooped up in your house all day. Make an effort to spend some time outside and meet some new faces. This can be as simple as going for a walk and saying hi to everyone you pass, watching your kids play in the front yard, or even doing some lawn work. These interactions will also come off a lot more natural and not forced if you're too nervous to knock on anyone's door.
Offer a helping hand
People love people who help them right? If you see them bringing groceries in, offer to help them. If you're raking leaves, shoveling snow, or mowing your lawn, offer to help them with theirs. You can even bring their newspaper or mail to their door so you have something to talk about when you first meet if "hello" is too hard. Unprompted acts of kindness will make a great first impression on your new neighbors.

As you age, your teeth age too. Decay, fillings, trauma or even just normal chewing habits can make your teeth break down over time. A porcelain dental crown or a cap is a cover that is placed over a tooth to protect a weakened tooth from further fracturing or deteriorating. A Porcelain crown could also be used to replace a discolored or badly shaped tooth or protect a tooth that has had a root canal. Lastly, a new porcelain crown is necessary to simply replace an old worn down or defective crown. All porcelain crowns are generally considered the most aesthetic choice since they closely resemble the color and appearance of your teeth. Porcelain continues to improve and in fact, there are newly developed porcelain materials, such as zirconium and empress 2 that can better withstand the forces of chewing.
The Dental Crown Treatment
It normally takes two visits for your dentist to complete your crown. On your first visit, your dentist will shape and prepare the tooth so the crown can properly fit over it. Next, an impression of the tooth is taken and a temporary crown is inserted to protect the prepared tooth. This impression is then sent to a dental laboratory where a custom-fit permanent crown is made.
On your second visit the permanent crown is placed. If the fit, shape and color of the crown are satisfactory your dentist will proceed with permanently cementing it into place.
Porcelain Crown Post Treatment Expectations
After the successful completion of the crown it is not uncommon to feel some discomfort, mild pain when you chew, or sensitivity to temperature changes for a few days. Also, if your newly cemented porcelain crown feels too tall or your bite doesn't feel right, you should contact your dentist.
Cleaning Your Crown
Please keep in mind that the longevity of your crown depends in large part on the materials in the crown, as well as your oral hygiene, diet and the health of the supporting tooth and gums. It is important to maintain all of your teeth with proper brushing and flossing.

The Ohio Attorney General's Office is attempting to get more details about the ownership of the Envirosafe hazardous waste landfill in Oregon, Ohio, using secrecy provisions to obtain documents and financial statements on Envirosafe's net worth dating to 2001. The information would not be available to citizens under the state public records law. The background investigation, state officials said, is to ensure that the owners and operators are competent and capable of running a hazardous waste landfill. Envirosafe officials countered that the state has all the information it needs.
