About John H. Hammond
John Henry Hammond II (December 15, 1910 – July 10, 1987) was an American record producer, Civil Rights activist, non-musician and music critic from the 1930s to the early 1980s. In his service as a talent scout, Hammond became one of the most influential figures in 20th century popular music.
Hammond was instrumental in sparking or furthering numerous musical careers, including those of Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Benny Goodman, Charlie Christian, Billie Holiday, Count Basie, Teddy Wilson, Big Joe Turner, Pete Seeger, Babatunde Olatunji, Aretha Franklin, George Benson, Freddie Green, Leonard Cohen, Arthur Russell, Asha Puthli and Stevie Ray Vaughan. He is also largely responsible for the revival of delta blues artist Robert Johnson's music.
Early years and family
Hammond was christened John Henry Hammond, Jr., although both his father and grandfather shared the same name. He was the youngest child and only son of John Henry Hammond. His father attended Yale, graduating with a law degree from Columbia. His grandfather was Civil War General John Henry Hammond, who married Sophia Vernon Wolfe. His father was a brother of Ogden H. Hammond, ambassador to Spain, and uncle to politician Millicent Fenwick. Despite the family fortune from his mother's side of the family, his father worked to provide for his family and maintain the family fortune. He worked in various jobs "as a banker, lawyer, and railroad executive".
Hammond's mother was the former Emily Vanderbilt Sloane, one of three daughters of William Douglas Sloane and Emily Thorn Vanderbilt. John H. Hammond, Sr. and Emily Sloane were wed on April 5, 1899. They also had four daughters: Emily, Adele, Rachel, and Alice, who married musician Benny Goodman in 1942.
Born in New York to great wealth as the great-grandson of William Henry Vanderbilt, Hammond showed interest in music from an early age. At age four he began studying the piano, only to switch to the violin at age eight. He was steered toward classical music by his mother, but was more interested in the music sung and played by the servants, many of whom were black. He was known to go down to his basement to listen to the upbeat music in the servant's quarters. He loved Sir Harry Lauder's "Roamin' in the Gloamin'". While he was in the basement, the rest of his family in the greater part of the five-story mansion would listen to "the great opera tenor Enrico Caruso, as well as to standard classics by Beethoven, Brahms, and Mozart".
Hammond became interested in social reform at a young age. His mother had a large interest in social reform as a means to give back some of her fortune to the community. She often found solace in Religion. Hammond shared her desire to help the community with his privilege.
Ironically, Hammond notes that the first jazz music that he was exposed to was in London on a trip with his family around 1922. He heard a band called The Georgians, a Caucasian improvisational jazz group, and saw a Negro show called "From Dixie to Broadway", that featured Sidney Bechet. This trip changed the way that he saw music. Upon his return to the states, he searched for records by Negro musicians but could not find them in the greater Manhattan area. He learned the Negro musicians had to sell within different stores, so he began to search for this music in Harlem.
In 1923, Hammond graduated from St. Bernard's School at the age of 14. He persuaded his family to allow him to attend Hotchkiss School due to its liberal curriculum. Hammond's love for music flourished. However, he felt limited within the confines of a boarding school. Hammond even succeeded in convincing the headmaster to allow him to go into the city every other weekend, a rare privilege, so that he could take lessons from Ronald Murat. However, the headmaster was not aware that outside of his formal lessons, he would sneak off to Harlem to hear the jazz music. During this time, he states that he heard the music of Bessie Smith at the The Harlem Alhambra, although this claim has been disputed by Smith's biographer.
In the fall of 1929, Hammond entered Yale University as a member of the class of 1933, where he studied the violin and, later, viola. He felt a disconnect with his fellow students at Yale and saw himself as a man already well acquainted with the professional world. He made frequent trips into New York and wrote regularly for trade magazines. In the fall semester of 1930, Hammond had to withdraw due to a re-occurring case of jaundice. Hammond had no desire to a repeat a semester, which contributed to his dissatisfaction with the University lifestyle. Much to the disappointment of his father, a Yale alum, in 1931, he dropped out of school, for a career in the music industry, first becoming the U.S. correspondent for Melody Maker.
In 1931, he funded the recording of pianist Garland Wilson, marking the beginning of a long string of artistic successes as record producer. He moved to Greenwich Village, where he claimed to have engaged in bohemian life and worked for an integrated music world. He set up one of the first regular live jazz programs, and wrote regularly about the racial divide. As he wrote in his memoirs, "I heard no color line in the music.... To bring recognition to the negro's supremacy in jazz was the most effective and constructive form of social protest I could think of." This pre-occupation with social issues was to continue, and in 1941 he was one of the founders of the Council on African Affairs. Hammond was given to exaggeration when speaking of his own achievements, but he had much to be acclaimed for.
In 1932, Hammond acquired a nonpaying job on the WEVD radio station as a disc jockey. Hammond did not discriminate when choosing which musicians to air; in fact, the station allowed Hammond complete freedom on the station as long as he paid for his time slot. Through this position, Hammond gained a reputation as a well-educated jazz fan. Various musicians were guests on his show, including, Fletcher Henderson, Benny Carter, and Art Tatum. When the station transferred from the Broadway Central Hotel to the Claridge Hotel[disambiguation needed], the new venue would not allow the black musicians to use the main elevator. For this reason, Hammond quit his work with WEVD.
By 1932–1933, through his involvement in the UK music paper Melody Maker, Hammond arranged for the faltering US Columbia label to provide recordings for the UK Columbia label, mostly using the Columbia W-265000 matrix series. Hammond recorded Fletcher Henderson, Benny Carter, Joe Venuti, and other jazz performers during a time when the economy was bad enough that many of them would not have had the opportunity to enter a studio and play real jazz.
In 1934, Hammond is known to have introduced Benny Goodman and Fletcher Henderson. It is said that Hammond convinced the musicians to 'swing' the current jazz hits, so that they could play in a free manner like the original New Orleans Jazz.
Hammond always strived for racial integration within the musical scene. For this purpose, he frequently visited musicians in Harlem as to connect with musicians in their own area. While initially his race proved a problem in connecting with this community, he formed relationships with various musicians that allowed him to surpass this barrier. His friendship with Benny Carter gave him a status in this area that allowed him to enter this musical community.
He played a role in organizing Benny Goodman's band, and in persuading him to hire black musicians such as Charlie Christian, Teddy Wilson and Lionel Hampton. In 1933 he heard the seventeen-year-old Billie Holiday perform in Harlem and arranged for her recording debut, on a Benny Goodman session. Four years later, he heard the Count Basie orchestra broadcasting from Kansas City and brought it to New York, where it began to receive national attention.
In 1938, he organized the first From Spirituals to Swing concert at Carnegie Hall, presenting a broad program of blues, jazz and gospel artists, including Ida Cox, Big Joe Turner, Albert Ammons, Meade "Lux" Lewis, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the Count Basie orchestra, Sidney Bechet, Sonny Terry, James P. Johnson, and Big Bill Broonzy (who took the place of the murdered Robert Johnson). He coordinated a second From Spirituals to Swing concert in 1939.
After serving in the military during World War II, Hammond felt unmoved by the bebop jazz scene of the mid-1940s. Rejoining Columbia Records in the late 1950s, he signed Pete Seeger and Babatunde Olatunji to the label, and discovered Aretha Franklin, then an eighteen-year-old gospel singer. In 1961, he heard folk singer Bob Dylan playing harmonica on a session for Carolyn Hester and signed him to Columbia and kept him on the label despite the protests of executives, who referred to Dylan as "Hammond's folly". He produced Dylan's early recordings, "Blowin' in the Wind" and "A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall".
Hammond oversaw the highly influential posthumous reissues of Robert Johnson's recorded work (produced by Frank Driggs), convincing Columbia Records to issue the album King of the Delta Blues Singers in 1961. Musicians Hammond signed to the label included Leonard Cohen and Bruce Springsteen.
Hammond retired from Columbia in 1975, but continued to scout for talent. In 1983, he brought guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan to Columbia and was credited as executive producer on his debut album.
Personal Accounts
Hammond believed jazz music to have originated as an African-American musical genre. For this reason, he generally preferred African-American musicians to Caucasian musicians. Hammond even writes that whites, such as the members of the Original Dixieland Jazz Band, stole this musical form from Negro musicians when they released the first jazz records.
When Hammond entered the jazz community, integration had not yet begun. Black and white musicians rarely played together and often the prestigious locations only permitted white audiences. Hammond remembers that before the 1920s, black musicians could always find jobs, even if they were low paying. After the instatement of Local 802, a union of professional musicians within New York City, Hammond saw more whites receiving jobs than blacks. However, this did not stop the African-American musicians. Through burlesque and record making, these musicians continued to be a presence.
1933 was a defining year for Hammond. He remembers this year being extraordinary due to his establishment of relationships with British record companies. Hammond was able to secure contracts for various musicians. He was an attractive producer to these companies because he did not desire a profit for himself. In 1933, he helped Benny Goodman receive a record deal with Columbia Records, which at the time was only known as English Columbia. During this time, Goodman was in need of a big break, as he had been receiving a reputation as being difficult to work with. Hammond proposed that Goodman produce a multiracial record; however, Goodman believed this route would hurt his musical reputation.
Furthermore, in this year, he broke out of the traditional role of a producer and became a talent scout, after hearing Billie Holiday. He remarks that he was astounded to discover that she was the daughter of Clarence Holiday from Fletcher Henderson's band. That same year, he was able to get her involved in the Benny Goodman Orchestra. Hammond attributes fate to his finding of Holiday. After hearing her sing for the first time, he wrote, "She weighs over 200 pounds, is incredibly beautiful, and sings as well as anybody I have ever heard."
Later in 1933, he heard Teddy Wilson, a jazz pianist, on the Chicago radio. While he did not discover him, he was able to provide significant opportunities for him, even some collaboration with Billie Holiday.
Hammond's work with civil rights came from multiple angles. In 1933, he traveled South to attend a trial regarding the Scottsboro case, a case in which two white girls accused nine black boys of raping them. The testimonies of the two girls did not align with the story. While the all nine boys were convicted, Hammond viewed this trial as a "catalyst for black activism".
Record integration became an important component of jazz music. Starting in 1935, musicians began to record in mixed-race groups. While some of this integration had already taken place, Hammond remembers it as being hidden. However, in 1935, the Goodman Trio began recording. In 1936, the group appeared in a live concert at the Chicago Hot Jazz Society. Hammond fondly remembers this as an innovative moment in jazz history.
FBI Investigation
J. Edgar Hoover, FBI director, investigated Hammond's link to the Communist Party. Due to the various benefits and fund-raisers that Hammond hosted for the popular front, his name was often listed in The Daily Worker, a communist newspaper. Furthermore, his name often appeared on the letterheads of left-wing organizations for which he was a donor or member. However, Hammond was not a communist.
Personal Life
John had four sisters: Alice, Rachel, Adele, and Emily.
Early in his career, Hammond focused more on his work than his love life. While he was seen publicly with various women, the relationships were never substantial. However, in 1940 at a Manhattan party, Hammond met Jemison "Jemy" McBride. On March 8th, 1941, Hammond married Jemy in New Haven Connecticut. The couple had a small, non-denominational wedding with only about ten guests. Although both sets of parents approved of the couple, neither set attended the wedding.
In 1942, Hammond took his wife on a road trip to Los Angeles. Shortly after this trip, Jemy realized that she was pregnant. In November of 1942, Jemy gave birth to their first son, John P. Hammond.
On March 21, 1942, Hammond's sister, Alice married Benny Goodman. She had previously been married to George Duckworth. Hammond did not look kindly upon this marriage. Hammond and Goodman had a falling out, some of which has been attributed to their differing backgrounds.
In November of 1943, Hammond began military training. He underwent his basic training at Fort Belvoir. Hammond was much older than the majority of the other men, and he had a rough time adjusting to the military life. While he was still in basic training, Jemy gave birth to their second child, Douglas, early in 1944. Douglas came down with a serious illness. While Jemy sent Hammond a telegram to alert him of his newborn's condition, Hammond stated that he never received it. Jemy speculated that Hammond was in a concert and disregarded the letter; however, that claim has been proven unlikely due to Hammond's strict schedule in basic training. Douglas died shortly after birth from his illness, and Jemy had to undergo the family tragedy without her husband. Hammond returned after basic training on a three-day pass, but he and his wife were distant.
After basic training, Hammond reported to Camp Plauche, where he was placed to organize activities for the black soldiers. During this time period, African American soldiers were given little to do within the military. There was still a large amount of racism in the military at this time. Hammond began his efforts by organizing concerts for the soldiers featuring African American musicians. Hammond noted that shortly after this these concerts began, an integrated sports team formed. Toward the end of World War II, Hammond was transferred to Fort Benning, known for its intense racism. Hammond was not the only jazz affiliate irritated with racism. During this time period, bebop music grew out of late night jam sessions of black musicians. Hammond was not much a part of the bebop movement, but he shared the sentiment against racism.
In 1946, Hammond was discharged from the military. His family moved Greenwich Village, where Jemy gave birth to their third son, Jason. Hammond threw himself back into his work, which greatly upset his wife. In 1948, Jemy asked Hammond for a divorce. While he was originally reluctant, Hammond agreed to the divorce. Jemy never remarried.
Just a year later, in 1949, Hammond met Esme Sarnoff, originally Esme O'Brien, the former wife of NBC chairman Robert W. Sarnoff and a daughter of Mary and Esmond O'Brien. Esme shared Hammond's musical passion and was planning to divorce her husband. That year, Hammond married Esme Sarnoff. By this marriage Hammond had one stepdaughter, (Esme) Rosita Sarnoff (born 1943). During this time, Hammond's father passed away on a golf course. Left a widow, Emily Hammond became infatuated with Frank Buchman.
In 1985, Hammond had his first stroke. Although this impaired him physically, his wife's death truly affected his mentality. Esme Hammond was diagnosed with breast cancer. While treatments worked for sometime, she died May 19, 1986 of complications of AIDS, which had been contracted from a blood transfusion. Hammond died on July 10th, 1987 after a series of strokes. It is said that he died listening to the music of Billie Holiday.
John's Idea, originally titled "I May Be Wrong It's John's Idea", is a tribute to John Hammond written by Count Basie.
Hammond received a Grammy Trustees Award for being credited with co-producing a Bessie Smith reissue in 1971, and in 1986 was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Hammond's son, John P. Hammond, became an American Blues musician.
Hammond was one of the original men to racially integrate the music industry. Before the Civil Rights Act passed, Tom Wilson, an African American, replaced Hammond as Bob Dylan's record producer. There was no uproar in regards to this replacement.
well-known music producer. Signed on the following musicians among others:
Count Bassie, Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan & Bruce Springsteen

From the Daily Telegraph:
Google's first ever interactive doodle allows people to play Pac-Man on the search engine's home page, to mark the game's 30th birthday
Google has transformed the home page of its search engine in to a game of Pac-Man. The usual Google logo has been replaced by a playable version of the popular 1980s video game, in which small yellow Pac-Men must travel around a maze, gobbling up dots while trying to avoid the ghosts. Shapes within the maze spell out "Google".
Web users can still perform a search through the Google home page, but those who want to play the game have to click on the "Insert coin" button.
Google said it had commissioned the doodle, its first ever interactive illustration, to mark the 30th anniversary of Pac-Man's release. Google said the launch of Pac-Man marked "a significant moment in popular culture", and said that web users had 48 hours to "re-live the nostalgia" of the 1980s by playing the game on the Google site.
"To pay the homage that Pac-Man deserves as a ground-breaking innovation in the gaming world, Google equipped the doodle with many unique characteristics from the original Pac-Man game," said a Google spokesman. "From preserving the distinct personalities of the ghosts Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde, to re-creating programming bugs from the original game, like a 'kill screen' on level 256, Marcin Wichary, a senior user experience designer at Google, and our resident Google doodler, Ryan Germick, remained as faithful to the spirit of Pac-Man as possible."
Google has a long history of altering its home page doodle to mark significant anniversaries and events. A recent series of mysterious doodles, designed to celebrate the birthday of HG Wells, sparked a wave of conspiracy theories online. The birth of Samuel Morse was marked by the Google logo appearing as a series of dots and dashes.

File:Soyuz and the Coastline of Africa.ogv
Soyuz (Russian: Сою́з, IPA: [sɐˈjus]), Union) is a series of spacecraft initially designed for the Soviet space programme by the Korolyov Design Bureau in the 1960s, and still in service today. The Soyuz succeeded the Voskhod spacecraft and was originally built as part of the Soviet Manned Lunar programme.
The Soyuz spacecraft is launched by the Soyuz rocket, the most frequently used and most reliable Russian launch vehicle to date.[1][2] The Soyuz rocket design is based on the Vostok launcher, which in turn was based on the 8K74 or R-7A Semyorka, a Soviet intercontinental ballistic missile. Soyuz spacecraft are launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
The first unmanned Soyuz mission was launched November 28, 1966; the first Soyuz mission with a crew (Soyuz 1) was launched April 23, 1967, but the cosmonaut on board, Vladimir Komarov, died during the flight's crash-landing. Soyuz 2 was an unmanned mission, and Soyuz 3, launched on October 26, 1968, was the first successful Soyuz manned mission. The only other fatal mission, Soyuz 11, killed the crew of three also during re-entry due to premature cabin depressurization. Despite these early fatalities, Soyuz is presently widely considered the world's safest, most cost-effective human spaceflight system,[3] as demonstrated by its unparalleled length of operational history.
Soyuz spacecraft were used to carry cosmonauts to and from Salyut and later Mir Soviet space stations, and are now used for transport to and from the International Space Station (ISS). At least one Soyuz spacecraft is docked to ISS at all times for use as an escape craft in the event of an emergency.
The Soyuz spacecraft is intended to be replaced by the six-person Prospective Piloted Transport System.[4]
A Soyuz spacecraft consists of three parts (from front to back):
- A spheroid orbital module, which provides accommodation for the crew during their mission;
- A small aerodynamic reentry module, which returns the crew to Earth;
- A cylindrical service module with solar panels attached, which contains the instruments and engines.
The orbital and service modules are single-use and are destroyed upon re-entry in the atmosphere. The orbital and reentry portions are habitable living space. By moving as much equipment as possible into the orbital module, which does not have to be shielded or decelerated during atmospheric re-entry, the Soyuz is both larger and lighter than the contemporary Apollo spacecraft's command module. The Apollo command module had more than six cubic meters (6.2 m³) of living space and a mass of 5000 kg; the three-part Soyuz (command, orbital and service modules) provides the same crew (since the Soyuz T in 1980) with more than seven cubic meters of living space (5 m³ in OM, plus 2.5 m³ in RM), an airlock, and a service module for the mass of the Apollo capsule alone (mass of empty Soyuz was 5600 kg). On the other hand Apollo was operating with three astronauts in spacesuits and was able to land with five astronauts in spacesuits in 1973 (prepared rescue mission for second Skylab crew), Soyuz was for two cosmonauts in spacesuits in the 1960s and 1970s, and for three since 1980 (Soyuz T). On nine Apollo missions (9 through 17) the astronauts also had access to the Lunar Module, which added 6.7 cubic meters of volume but also another 2200 kg of mass (if counting just the empty ascent stage as being somewhat equivalent to the Soyuz orbital module, although including empty fuel tanks, engine and RCS system — 14700 kg when including the descent stage and fuel).
Soyuz can carry up to three crew members and provide life support for about 30 person days. The life support system provides a nitrogen/oxygen atmosphere at sea level partial pressures. The atmosphere is regenerated through KO2 cylinders, which absorb most of the CO2 and water produced by the crew and regenerates the oxygen, and LiOH cylinders which absorb leftover CO2.
The vehicle is protected during launch by a nose fairing, which is jettisoned after passing through the atmosphere. It has an automatic docking system. The ship can be operated automatically, or by a pilot independently of ground control.
Orbital Module
The forepart of the spacecraft is the orbital module (Russian: бытовой отсек (БО); Bytovoi otsek (BO)), also known as Habitation section. It houses all the equipment that will not be needed for reentry, such as experiments, cameras or cargo. The module also contains a toilet, docking avionics and communications gear. Internal volume is 6 m³, living space 5 m³. On the latest Soyuz versions (since Soyuz TM), a small window was introduced, providing the crew with a forward view.
A hatch between it and the descent module can be closed so as to isolate it to act as an airlock if needed, crew members exiting through its side port (near the descent module). On the launch pad, the crew enter the spacecraft through this port.
This separation also lets the orbital module be customized to the mission with less risk to the life-critical descent module. The convention of orientation in zero gravity differs from that of the descent module, as crew members stand or sit with their heads to the docking port.
Separation of the Orbital Module is critical for a safe landing. Without separation of the OM it is not possible for the crew to survive landing – that's why the orbital module was separated before the ignition of the return engine. After the issue with the landing of Soyuz TM-5 in September 1988 this procedure was changed and the OM is separated after the return maneuver, which is more dangerous. Also the rescue of the crew whilst on the launch pad or with SAS system is complicated because of the orbital module.
Reentry Module
The reentry module (Russian: спускаемый аппарат (СА); Spuskaemyi apparat (SA)) is used for launch and the journey back to Earth. Half of the reentry module is covered by a heat-resistant covering to protect it during re-entry; this half faces the Earth during re-entry. It is slowed initially by the atmosphere, then by a braking parachute, followed by the main parachute which slows the craft for landing. At one meter above the ground, solid-fuel braking engines mounted behind the heat shield are fired to give a soft landing. One of the design requirements for the reentry module was for it to have the highest possible volumetric efficiency (internal volume divided by hull area). The best shape for this is a sphere, but such a shape can provide no lift, which results in a purely ballistic reentry. Ballistic reentries are hard on the occupants due to high deceleration and cannot be steered beyond their initial deorbit burn. That is why it was decided to go with the "headlight" shape that the Soyuz uses—a hemispherical forward area joined by a barely angled conical section (seven degrees) to a classic spherical section heat shield. This shape allows a small amount of lift to be generated due to the unequal weight distribution. The nickname was thought up at a time when nearly every headlight was circular. Small dimensions of the reentry module led to it having only two-man crews after the death of the Soyuz 11 crew. The later Soyuz T spacecraft solved this issue. Internal volume of Soyuz SA is 4 m³; 2.5 m³ is usable for crew (living space).
Service Module
At the back of the vehicle is the service module (Russian: приборно-агрегатный отсек (ПАО); Priborno-Agregatnyi Otsek (PAO)). It has a pressurized container shaped like a bulging can (Instrumentation compartment, PO (Priborniy Otsek)) that contains systems for temperature control, electric power supply, long-range radio communications, radio telemetry, and instruments for orientation and control. A non-pressurized part of the service module (Propulsion compartment, AO (Agregatniy Otsek)) contains the main engine and a liquid-fuelled propulsion system for maneuvering in orbit and initiating the descent back to Earth. The ship also has a system of low-thrust engines for orientation, attached to the Intermediate compartment (PkhO or Perekhodnoi Otsek). Outside the service module are the sensors for the orientation system and the solar array, which is oriented towards the sun by rotating the ship. An incomplete separation between the Service and Reentry modules led to emergency situations during Soyuz 5, Soyuz TMA-10 and Soyuz TMA-11, which led to an incorrect reentry orientation (crew ingress hatch first). The failure of several explosive bolts did not cut the connection between the Service/Reentry modules on the latter two flights.
Re-entry procedure
The Soyuz uses a method similar to the Apollo Command/Service modules to de-orbit itself. The spacecraft is turned engine-forward and the main engine is fired for de-orbiting fully 180° ahead of its planned landing site. This requires the least propellant for re-entry, the spacecraft traveling on an elliptical Hohmann orbit to a point where it will be low enough in the atmosphere to re-enter.
Early Soyuz spacecraft would then have the service and orbital modules detach simultaneously from the reentry module. As they are connected by tubing and electrical cables to the reentry module, this would aid in their separation and avoid having the descent module alter its orientation. Later Soyuz spacecraft detached the orbital module before firing the main engine, which saved propellant. Since the Soyuz TM-5 landing issue, the orbital module is once again detached only after the re-enter firing, which led to (but not caused) emergency situations of Soyuz TMA-10 and TMA-11. The orbital module cannot remain in orbit as an addition to a space station, as the airlock hatch between the orbital and reentry modules is a part of reentry module, and the orbital module therefore depressurizes after separation.
Re-entry firing is usually done on the "dawn" side of the earth, so that the spacecraft can be seen by recovery helicopters as it descends in the evening twilight, illuminated by the sun when it is above the shadow of the Earth. The Soyuz craft is designed to come down on land, usually somewhere in the deserts of Kazakhstan in central Asia. This is in contrast to early US manned missions which "splashed down" in the ocean.

Soyuz 7K (part of the 7K-9K-11K circumlunar complex) (1963)
Korolyov initially promoted the Soyuz A-B-V circumlunar complex (7K-9K-11K) concept (also known as L1) in which a two-man craft Soyuz 7K would rendezvous with other components (9K and 11K) in Earth orbit to assemble a lunar excursion vehicle, the components being delivered by the proven R-7 rocket.
First generation
The manned Soyuz spacecraft can be classified into design generations. Soyuz 1 through Soyuz 11 (1967–1971) were first-generation vehicles, carrying a crew of up to three without spacesuits and distinguished from those following by their bent solar panels and their use of the Igla automatic docking navigation system, which required special radar antennas. This first generation encompassed the original Soyuz 7K-OK and the Soyuz 7K-OKS for docking with the Salyut 1 space station. The probe and drogue docking system permitted internal transfer of cosmonauts from the Soyuz to the station.
The Soyuz 7K-L1 was designed to launch a crew from the Earth to circle the moon, and was the primary hope for a Soviet circumlunar flight. It had several test flights in the Zond program from 1967–1970 (Zond 4 to Zond 8), which produced multiple failures in the 7K-L1's re-entry systems. The remaining 7K-L1s were scrapped. The Soyuz 7K-L3 was designed and developed in parallel to the Soyuz 7K-L1, but was also scrapped. Soyuz 1 was plagued with technical issues, and cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov was killed when the spacecraft crashed during its return to Earth. This was the first in-flight fatality in the history of spaceflight.
The next manned version of the Soyuz was the Soyuz 7K-OKS. It was designed for space station flights and had a docking port that allowed internal transfer between spacecraft. The Soyuz 7K-OKS had two manned flights, both in 1971. Soyuz 11, the second flight, depressurized upon re-entry, killing its three-man crew.
Second generation
The second generation, called Soyuz Ferry or Soyuz 7K-T, comprised Soyuz 12 through Soyuz 40 (1973–1981).
It was developed out of the military Soyuz concepts studied in previous years and was capable of carrying 2 cosmonauts with Sokol space suits (after the Soyuz 11 accident). Several models were planned, but none actually flew in space. These versions were named Soyuz P, Soyuz PPK, Soyuz R, Soyuz 7K-VI, and Soyuz OIS (Orbital Research Station).
The Soyuz 7K-T/A9 version was used for the flights to the military Almaz space station.
Soyuz 7K-TM was the spacecraft used in the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project in 1975, which saw the first and only docking of a Soyuz spacecraft with an Apollo spacecraft. It was also flown in 1976 for the earth-science mission, Soyuz 22. Soyuz 7K-TM served as a technological bridge to the third generation.
Third generation
The third generation Soyuz-T (T: транспортный, Transportnyi meaning transport) spacecraft (1976–1986) featured solar panels allowing longer missions, a revised Igla rendezvous system and new translation/attitude thruster system on the Service module. It could carry a crew of three, now wearing spacesuits.
Fourth generation
Soyuz-TM (1986-2003)
The Soyuz-TM crew transports (M: модифицированный, Modifitsirovannyi meaning modified) were fourth generation Soyuz spacecraft, and were used from 1986 to 2003 for ferry flights to Mir and the International Space Station.
Soyuz-TMA (2003–2012 )
Soyuz TMA (A: антропометрический, Antropometricheskii meaning anthropometric) features several changes to accommodate requirements requested by NASA in order to service the International Space Station, including more latitude in the height and weight of the crew and improved parachute systems. It is also the first expendable vehicle to feature "glass cockpit" technology. Soyuz-TMA looks identical to a Soyuz-TM spacecraft on the outside, but interior differences allow it to accommodate taller occupants with new adjustable crew couches.
Soyuz TMA-M (2010/....)
In 2004, Russian space officials announced that they intended to replace Soyuz with the new Kliper and Parom spacecraft by early 2011.[6] The Soyuz TMA-M is an upgrade of the baseline Soyuz-TMA, using a new computer, digital interior displays, updated docking equipment and vehicle's total mass has been reduced by 70 kilograms. This new version debuted on 7 October 2010 with the launch of TMA-01M, carrying the ISS Expedition 25 crew.[6]
The Soyuz TMA-08M set a new record for the fastest manned docking into space station, event utilized the new 6-hour fast rendezvous instead of the previous Soyuz launches which had, since 1986, taken two days.[7]
Soyuz ACTS (2014/....)
Soyuz ACTS (Advanced Crew Transportation System), also known as Soyuz-K, is a proposed version of the Soyuz design capable of achieving lunar orbit. The upgrades could include a new habitation module developed by the European Space Agency. A novel, rocket-based precision landing system may also be implemented.[8] Missions could be launched from Baikonur or Guiana Space Centre.[9]
Related craft
The unmanned Progress spacecraft were derived from Soyuz and are used for servicing space stations.
While not being direct derivatives of Soyuz, the Chinese Shenzhou spacecraft and the Indian Orbital Vehicle follow the same general layout as that pioneered by Soyuz.
General Electric published their Apollo D-2 in December 1961 at the American Astronautical Society symposium in Denver, CO. This American design has many similarities to the early Russian spacecraft designs.

MATL transmission line engine is running, may be here by 2011
By Buck Traxler, I-O Editor
Asking when the Montana Alberta Tie Line (MATL) will begin construction in Pondera County will get you a nebulous answer, at the present.
Material for the project is sitting at a staging site near Shelby. Construction slated earlier this month with phase one being an electrical substation at Cut Bank and moving on north to Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada.
And while construction has begun, going north, the time table for Pondera County is still uncertain. However, it is estimated the line construction in this segment is scheduled for early 2011.
The MATL line is a 300-megawatt electrical transmission line that will allow movement of power between Alberta and Montana

The Tri-County Cardinals season officially ended at the Northern A District tournament in Fort Macleod. The Cardinals were hoping to repeat as District champions and move on to the next round, but it wasn't meant to be.
In the first game of the tournament, the Cardinals took on tournament host Fort Macleod.
Tri-County took a big step towards qualifying for State with a 10-2 win.
Cardinal Ace, John Johannsen took the mound and fired six innings of four hits, one run ball for the win. Johannsen also walked six batters and struck out eight. Scott Bye came on in relief and threw three innings to seal the win.
At the plate Joe Hallenburg went 2-3 with two runs and a RBI. Johannsen helped his cause knocking in two runs and scoring one himself.

Al Atallah's Pine Valley Store
28820 Old Highway 80, Pine Valley
Talk to the old folks, and they lament the loss of the old general stores, where you knew Al and Al knew you, and he had just about anything you needed, or he'd get it for you. Well, they're not all gone. Six years ago Al Atallah took over a deli-pizza-gift shop in Pine Valley, ditched the gift shop, and "jam-packed it with stuff people out here actually need." Gasoline, for starters. Groceries, wood, butane, sleeping bags, winter clothing such as gloves, hats, socks, helmets for mountain bikers, National Forest passes, diapers, toothbrushes, compasses, basketballs, thermometers, maps, auto parts, liquor, sandwiches, and yes, he still makes the piping hot pizzas. "Half of it's for travelers and campers," he says. "But we have 1500 people living up here. We don't have supermarkets. They need a traditional general store. Guess I've become it."

Dramatic sunset over the ALMA OSF
In this picture, taken at sunset looking toward the southeast, are four ALMA antennas at the Operations Support Facility (OSF). The OSF is located at 2900 metres altitude on the road to the 5000-metre-high Chajnantor plateau, near San Pedro de Atacama in the II Region of Chile. ALMA, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, is the largest astronomical project in existence and is a truly global partnership of Europe, North America and East Asia in cooperation with the Republic of Chile. ESO is the European partner in ALMA. The ALMA array will initially be composed of 66 antennas, provided by the different partners. When the antennas are delivered by the partners to ALMA, they are tested and inspected for their final acceptance.

Each new year provides chances to reconnect with loved ones across the globe and focus on building new relationships. Take the time to celebrate the accomplishments and memories of the previous year by sending your favorite snapshots to the people who want to relieve them or experience them for the first time. You can also take the opportunity to include festive holiday photos in your New Year cards if you didn't have time to include them in your Christmas cards.
Would you rather look forward with excitement to the New Year than reminisce on the old year? If so, leave the holiday photos behind and design your Happy New Year cards to reignite fresh, new connections with family and friends. We make it easy to switch up colors, styles, themes and shapes so you can create cards that are perfectly you.
Include a single inspirational photo of you and your family, or take a photo collage approach if you have several photos you are dying to share with family and friends. Expecting a baby? There is no better way to make your announcement than in a New Year card that celebrates all things new. You can even include a short, inspirational message that embodies the hopeful spirit of new beginnings. The possibilities for customization are nearly as endless as the possibilities the New Year offers to you and our family.
Whether you want your New Year cards to look edgy, festive, traditional, or sophisticated, you'll love how easy it is to achieve the look you want by selecting a few key customizing options, including:
It has never been easier to take a photo and turn it into a completely personalized, high-quality Happy New Year card. Make your cards even more special by tucking them inside completely personalized envelopes. We offer custom printing options as well if you want to have your envelopes filled out for you in beautiful print.
Make This New Year Extra Special

"The cards felt of quality in your hands. They were not only beautiful with a black and white photo, they looked elegant and felt elegant."
"Card will touch your heart! Perfect Sentiment and the affirmations on the reverse side are reminders to make everyday count! I loved the card and most of the recipients either texted or e-mailed they loved it too! :)"
"I ordered these New Year cards for my photography business. I couldn't have asked for better quality and they arrived faster than I expected. Will definitely order again in the future."
"The paper quality was fantastic - heavy and colorful. The printing was clear and easy to read. We were very pleased with the cards and received many compliments from friends and family who received them."
"We ordered our holiday cards late but we found the perfect card to welcome the new year. Might start a new tradition with New Year cards!"

Photographer's Note
Toronto is features Chinese Moon Festival for last week. There are almost full and super bright moon for the whole week.. despite some clouds:) I just saw this nice view from my balcony today and despite having a bunch of CN tower pics could not hold an urge to make one more...
Well it happened to be a bit overexposed and clouds are a little blurrred...But I like overall effect.
It is framed in Picasa 2 and also contras is adjusted (same soft).
Enjoy, Critique..:)

I love the motion and colors of the clouds. Great exposure, nice sharp buildings. Great work!
markogts (1130) 2006-10-05 7:06
Seems almost a fake, with the CN tower pasted over the sky. I like the effect, due mainly to the good exposure of the tower. Maybe you could try other framings, to avoid the foreground buildings.
aloyho (6798) 2006-10-08 9:21
Hi Michael,
Sometimes the unexpected can spring some interesting surprises and I must say it looks exciting here. I like the formation of the clouds and the motion blur add some dynamism to the composition. Well done!! Regards and thanks.
rafid76 (0) 2006-10-24 3:03
its amazing how you captured the clouds in motion. the towers and buliding are very sharp. the colors are hunting which suits the photo!
vinicio (23423) 2006-11-28 8:07
This image have excellent light Michael, I like also the beautiful sky and the good perspective, compliments, a crop of the tower without the other buildings could be an other solution.
MichaelTrezzi (3368) 2007-10-29 13:10
Hi Michael, the blurred clouds stress the sharp lines of the CN Tower. Well seen. TFS, Rgds,, Miichael

Ducks announce signing of Lydman
The Ducks announced the signing of veteran defenseman Toni Lydman on Thursday to a three-year contract through the 2012-13 NHL season.
TSN reported that the deal for Lydman is worth $9 million over three years. Lydman, 32, has spent the last five seasons with the Buffalo Sabres and had four goals and 16 assists in 67 games last season. He also had 30 penalty minutes.
Lydman played in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy for Finland with Teemu Selanne and Saku Koivu. He has been an even or plus player in each of the last six seasons of his nine-year NHL career.
Lydman has 33 goals and 168 assists in 660 NHL games with Calgary and Buffalo. He was on the Flames' 2003-04 team that advanced to the Stanley Cup finals but played in only six games of that postseason because of injury.

Waiting on Wednesday: Rosebush by Michele Jaffe
Published by ATOM 3rd March 2011
I am loving everything ATOM has to offer at the moment. Looking forward to this one alot!
See Jane run. See Jane die.
Instead of celebrating Memorial Day weekend on the Jersey shore, Jane is in the hospital surrounded by teddy bears, trying to piece together what happened last night. One minute she was at a party, wearing fairy wings and cuddling with her boyfriend. The next, she was lying near-dead in a rosebush after a hit and run.
Everyone thinks it was an accident, despite the phone threats Jane swears were real. But the truth is a thorny thing. As Jane's boyfriend, friends, and admirers come to visit, more memories surface--not just from the party, but from deeper in her past...including the night her best friend Bonnie died.
With nearly everyone in her life a suspect now, Jane must unravel the mystery before her killer attacks again. Along the way, she is forced to examine the consequences of her life choices in this compulsively readable thriller.

Estadísticas de Olas para Anglet - Marinella, abril: Todo Oleaje – Todo Viento
This chart shows the variation of swells directed at Anglet - Marinella through a typical April and is based upon 2160 NWW3 model predictions since 2007 (values every 3 hours). The wave model does not forecast surf and wind right at the shore so we have chosen the optimum grid node based on what we know about Anglet - Marinella. In this particular case the best grid node is 37 km away (23 miles).
The rose diagram describes the distribution of swell sizes and directions, while the graph at the bottom shows the same thing without direction information. Five colours illustrate increasing wave sizes. Blue shows the smallest swells, less that 0.5m (1.5 feet) high. These happened only 12% of the time. Green and yellow illustrate increasing swell sizes and red represents biggest swells greater than >3m (>10ft). In both graphs, the area of any colour is proportional to how commonly that size swell occurs.
The diagram implies that the prevailing swell direction, shown by the largest spokes, was WNW (which was the same as the prevailing wind direction). Because the wave model grid is away from the coast, sometimes a strong offshore wind blows largest waves away from Anglet - Marinella and out to sea. We combine these with the no surf category of the bar chart. To simplify things we don't show these in the rose plot. Because wind determines whether or not waves are clean enough to surf at Anglet - Marinella, you can view an alternative image that shows only the swells that were expected to coincide with glassy or offshore wind conditions. Over an average April, swells large enough to cause surfable waves at Anglet - Marinella run for about 88% of the time.
IMPORTANT: Beta version feature! Swell heights are open water values from NWW3. There is no attempt to model near-shore effects. Coastal wave heights will generally be less, especially if the break does not have unobstructed exposure to the open ocean.

Home > Wellness > Health Library > Hirschsprung's Disease
Hirschsprung's disease is a birth defect in which certain nerve cells in a part of the large intestine are missing, and the muscles in that area can't relax. Because the muscle contractions that normally push food and digestive waste through that area can't occur, stool gets trapped, and inflammation and constipation develop.
Hirschsprung's disease may be a sudden, life-threatening condition, or it may be a long-term problem that is less serious but harder to diagnose. Symptoms of Hirschsprung's disease include intermittent vomiting, diarrhea, fever, and a severely swollen belly. It is usually diagnosed in infancy. If it is not diagnosed until later in life, other symptoms may appear, such as loss of appetite, lack of the urge to pass stools, and poor overall health.
Hirschsprung's disease is treated with surgery to remove the affected part of the intestine.

WASHINGTON - CUA makes the short trip across town on Saturday afternoon to face Division I foe George Washington in the Charles E. Smith Center. After traveling to Notre Dame and Florida for their openers the last two seasons, the Cardinals will remain local this year to reunite with an old friend, Colonials Head Coach Mike Lonergan. A CUA alum, Lonergan coached the Cardinals from 1992-2004, winning 251 games, and leading CUA to the 2001 National Championship. This marks Lonergan's second year at GW, following a successful run at the University of Vermont.
Cardinal Head Coach Steve Howes played for Mike Lonergan at CUA from 1993-95 and later served a pair of stints as an assistant coach under him. Now in his ninth season at CUA, Howes' .667 win percentage ranks second in school history to Lonergan's .740.
CUA won 19 games a season ago, marking the fourth straight season in which the Cardinals won at least 18 games. CUA, which has qualified for postseason play in each of those four seasons, advanced to its second straight ECAC championship game in 2011-12.
The Cardinals led the Landmark Conference in scoring offense a season ago, averaging 77.1 points per game. CUA scored at least 80 points 11 times in 2011-12, including two games with over 100.
Senior captain Shawn Holmes is coming off a season in which he led CUA in scoring and was named to the All-Landmark Conference Teams. Holmes enters his final season in the red and black with 827 career points and is aiming to become the 39th 1,000-point scorer in school history.
Senior Chris Kearney has led the Cardinals in blocked shots in each of the last three seasons. Kearney swatted away 42 shots last season, ranking second in the Landmark Conference, and enters his senior year with 151 career blocks. If Kearney continues his current pace, he will move into the top-three in school history this season. Shaun Bromley is currently third with 173 blocks.
Led by Nate Koenig's 95.7% performance at the free throw line last season, CUA ranked 14th in the country in FT%, at 75.8. The Cardinals boasted 4 of the top 15 free throw shooters in the Landmark Conference, with returners Koenig, Shawn Holmes (83.5), and Steve Limberiou (82.1) all hitting over 80% of their attempts.
George Washington returns seven players from last year's team and welcomes six newcomers into the mix. Senior Lasan Kromah is the Colonials' top returning scorer (11.1 ppg), followed by classmate David Pellom (10.4 ppg). Pellom, who set a new school record by shooting 68.5% from the floor last season, will miss Saturday's exhibition while continuing to rehab from left wrist surgery. Five other experienced upperclassmen return to the lineup, in addition to a heralded group of newcomers, including Villanova transfer Isaiah Armwood.
For more information on Saturday's matchup, check out the CUA game notes.
Saturday's exhibition game will tip-off at 2 p.m. from inside the Charles E. Smith Center. George Washington will offer live video, audio and stats of the contest.

39 3/4x24 3/4 inches, 101x63 cm. Turner & Dunnett, Lithos., Liverpool.
Condition B / B+: repaired tears, creases and restoration in margins and image; restored losses at edges and corners; restoration along vertical and horizontal folds.
An extremely rare and beautiful poster advertising transatlantic travel on the legendary Lusitania. Although the ship's name does not appear on the bow of the vessel illustrated, we know it is the Lusitania both by her profile (with her signature four smokestacks) and, more importantly, the white stripe along the top edge of her bow. Her sister ship the Mauretania, which looked practically identical, did not have the band of white above the black hull. This poster, however, predates the Lusitania's maiden voyage (September 7, 1907), as she was never in regular service with this white strip in place. The top of her bow was only painted white for her trials. This poster is exceptional, not only as one of a very few posters for the Lusitania, but also as a wonderful, artistic and evocative nocturnal seascape, in which a searchlight dramatically slices diagonally through the sky, prominently intersecting the diagonal hull of the ship. A fast and elegant ship, the vessel entered into popular culture and immortality when she was sunk by German torpedoes on May 7, 1915, an horrific event which helped precipitate the United States' entry in World War I.
