1932 Dox – L. Ron Hubbard's First Published Story: TAH – A Joint Propaganda Piece About China With Paul Linebarger
L. Ron Hubbard was attending George Washington University in 1932 and became one of the editors of The University Hatchet Monthly Literary Review together with Paul Linebarger.
Who is Paul Linebarger?
Well, you might know him better as one of his later pen-names – Cordwainer Smith. Under that name he published a number of science fiction stories, the most well known was Scanners Live in Vain written in 1945 but not published until 1950.
The year Hubbard would officially release Dianetics (May of 1950) Paul Linebarger was finally able to have his Scanners Live in Vain story finally published in a theretofore insignificant sci-fi magazine Fantasy Book – in January. Everyone was in a tizzy as to who was this Cordwainer Smith?
Ref – Biographical Timeline of Linebarger
The reason he even got it published at all, is what's really interesting. L. Ron Hubbard had hooked his old friend and CIA 'political action' compatriot, Paul Linebarger, up with his own personal literary agent Forrest Ackerman! Who then became Linebarger's agent.
By the time he wrote it, Linebarger was fully engaged in using the psychological warfare principals he detailed in his later 1948 book.
He had become a Catholic – or at least he wanted to appear to be – and was experimenting with using religious materials mixed with space opera-come-Messiah elements to conduct psychological warfare on the more intelligent but rebellious elements of America, including the introduction of a little known element of a top-secret program at the time – telepathic warriors.
In case you think I'm kidding when I said that Linebarger was part of a psychological warfare campaign against the American people as was Ron Hubbard, let me introduce you to a 1939 letter from Astounding science fiction magazine editor, John Campbell, to L. Ron Hubbbard (who had just started working for him).
This exchange was provided online by the Church of Scientology – obviously Campbell is answering some previous letter by Hubbard about "saving" Arabian stories for him for his new magazine called Unknown.

January 23, 1939 – John Campbell letter to Hubbard re: Unknown magazine.
February 1, 1939 – Hubbard responds to John Campbell.
Campbell starts out complaining about that he's having trouble getting first-rate fantasy stories that fulfill his goal for the magazine, which obviously he considers Hubbard in that first-rate category. But what was the goal for this propaganda vehicle?
Look closer at this part –
Basically, this is the philosophy I'm applying:
All human beings like wishes to come true. In fairy stories and fantasy, wishes do come true.
Adults with childish minds (average "adult" has the mind of a 14 year old) don't dare to read "fairy stories," because their minds are afraid to acknowledge their interest in anything childish – they subconsciously realize their mental immaturity and, as a defense mechanism, avoid childish things.
…And every human being likes fantasy fundamentally.
So now wait…this means that the assessment of the general American adults is –
Those who believe wishes can come true.
because they have 14-year old minds
Put another way –
Those who believe in mental or spiritual powers.
because they have 14-year old minds
Of course, one might ask where this magical number of 14 came from. Why not 12, or 13?
Just look at Campbell's attitude towards the 'immature' people –
The little runt is apt to be belligerent, spiteful, and bitterly resentful if ribbed.
Also note what he is trying to do with these stories – irritate and inflame the people who believe in mental or spiritual powers by ribbing them with these stories!
In view of this, I have absolute confidence that this new magazine will inevitably become more or less of a fashion among truly adult people – and will be despised by the 14-year-old minds.
Whereas who are the 'right' role models in this little scenario world of John Campbell?
Oh yes. Men of power and means.
in the physical world where you find the big, powerful, capable man pretty generally peaceable, friendly and willing to take ribbing easily because of an assured and unquestionable power.
The little runt is apt to be belligerent, spiteful, and bitterly resentful if ribbed.
How very BRITISH of him. How very slavemaster.
See the 2-classes he has there, with no in-between? The runts and the 'big, powerful man"?
Now who's being childish in their view of the world, Mr. Campbell.
So, apparently, we must be mature enough to understand the true magnificence of the seriously shitty stories that were being brought out in Astounding and Unknown, or else we are 'little runts'?
Oh fer fucksakes!
That's just plain ridiculous.
This little part of Hubbard's response to him is quite interesting, it shows what his strategy was that would clearly carry over into his later Dianetics and Scientology materials – particularly the FAIRY TALES aspect of it all.
The only thing which could possibly kill it would be the tendency common to most writers to try to make the reader believe by disbelieving the thing themselves in the form of the hero's stream of consciousness.
See it?
If not, don't worry, you will soon enough.
Now, that was just one example of the parallels between L. Ron Hubbard and Paul Linebarger's role as propagandists using religious/technico/sci-fi blends to influence the '14-year old minds' that dare to still believe in basically mind-over-matter – despite centuries of trying to beat it out them with religion and science as the twin war-hammers of this all-out War against humanity.
There are many, many more examples. Some of which will downright amaze you at how closely they were 'doing their job' for British intelligence and it's bastard step-child, the CIA. You really should read my post of last July, 2015, to see what I'm talking about.
This post – Who is Paul Linebarger "Cordwainer Smith" and What's he got to do with L. Ron Hubbard?
Ok, I give, here's one more example.
In Linebarger's story, the scanners resemble skilled espionage agents in certain ways: though respected and admired by ordinary folk, they are regarded as not quite human and are not able to lead ordinary lives. It's quite a projection of Paul's angst over his life, even then, as an intelligence agent.
Guess what his main character's name is?
Why is that important?
Because just two years later, in a very similar story, L. Ron Hubbard named his character the exact same name. See my post regarding that story named: End Is Not Yet.
And now we will get to the earliest example of the two of them working together putting out propaganda 'fiction'.
Hubbard's TAH story.
Paul Linebarger wrote the "Coolie Chant" for it.
The University Hatchet Monthly Literary Review (George Washington University), Volume 28, Number 18, February 9, 1932.
Images first – plain text after.
Chang is a play on the very real General Chaing Kai-Shek of China.
LITTLE TAH walked back and forth before General Chang's tent and watched his square footprints following themselves in the thick dust. He had shined his shoes that morning with the aid of some goose grease, but now there remained only the dull sheen of oil-accumulated dirt. The gun on little Tah's shoulder had grown very heavy during the last three hours, but a soldier never complained, even at death.
The army of Chang had been camped in the center of this yellow plain for two weeks, enough time to thwart the efforts of foragers, and to exhaust the patience of the few scattered farmers whose fields had been trammeled by five thousand men a week before the harvest. But the sick were becoming strong again, and the morale had risen through many nights of sitting around flickering campfires with nothing more in mind than a long sleep in a warm bed under a clear sky.
Little Tah had noticed the difference, and had confided in Trivensk, the sub-Iieutenant of the boy's company, while the White Russian had wound a bandage around the little bruised hand of his twelve year-old soldier.
"You'll make a general some day, Tah," still rang in the ears of the boy. He looked down at his cotton-padded grey uniform and wondered how gold braid must feel when it graced a silken tunic. He dared peek into the tent of the commandder as he passed in, and started a little when he saw the general sprawled on his cot, his mouth open in heavy sleep. Did one suddenly look like that when one became a general? Tah liked to think of generals in terms of Trivensk, who was straight and carried his mouth with just the right amount of authority. But if Trivensk thought that Tah would make a general some day, Tah would try.
The footprints became overlaid with others.
The dust eddied about the square shoes, and the twelve-year-old Chinese soldier's mind turned to other more important things. Tsing had made a new top he wanted Tah to see. It must be a glorious top, for Tsing had made it, and though Tsing was a year younger than the sentry, he possessed a knack of making beautiful things of wood. When this tour of duty was ended, he would search out Wung and the two of them would find Tsing and ask him to spin the top for them. Wung could draw pictures with charcoal on stone. Little Tah liked pictures, especially pictures of gardens with big birds singing on top of the shrines and waterfalls bubbling away, He wished he could draw pictures. He sighed as he made his five-hundredth about-face at the end of the tent, but brightened when he thought of his new markmanship record which had brought him this heavy gun. Ninety-five out of a possible one hundred.
But still he wished he could draw pictures like those of the eleven-year-old Wung, or make tops like Tsing could.
A company of infantry marched down the gouged road throwing geysers of dust into the hot air, their rifles askew and their bandoliers clanging against their buttons. The company halted while the captain hurried over to the general's tent. Little Tah stood at attention, his rifle just the height of his pill-box cap, and demanded the officer's business.
"Tell your General Chang that I come from Harbin with important news. Hurry!"
Tah stalked into the tent, his rifle dragging, and shook the general by the shoulder. Chang sat up stifling a yawn to pull his sword belt around his fat stomach which bulged when the buckle was fastened. The officer entered and Tah retired to resume his pacings back and forth.
If he hadn't been thinking so hard about his two friends, he might have heard an exciting conversation.
At the six-hundredth about-face, a grizzled Manchurian relieved Tah of his post. Tah wiped some of the dust from his shoes, the gun-grease from his grey-clad shoulder and went in search of Wung, whom he found seated on the pointer's ledge of a worn-out seventy-five.
"Seen Tsing?" Tah leaned his rifle against a wheel of the cannon, and seated himself on the trace.
"No, Tsing on range with company." Wung's deep brown eyes followed the tracing his stick made in the sand.
"Seen top?" A slight frown passed over Tah's yellow face as he gazed at his friend.
"No. You?" Tsing's expression was impassive.
"Heart bad?" Tah moved closer to his friend and put an arm across the dejected shoulders.
"Think too much today. Remember gracious father."
Coolie Chant
By PAUL M.A. LINEBARGER
One step more, and another step More:
What the difference? Who keeps score?
What will heal my shoulders sore?
What the difference if my guts I tore,
Flooding my belly with my own sweet gore?
A few years more-and then I die.
Why should I stop to squall and cry?
Men will smile and pass me by!
My son's son's sons will be born so late;
They will eat good food and laugh at Fate;
They will wear rich robes and be bright-great;
Hold huge house back of lacquer gates!
"Sorry. Can do something?"
"No. Chang shoot soldier who run. Good soldier do not run. Wung good soldier like Tah and Tsing. They of good heart."
"Tah like to see his gracious father, too, but father sell Tah to Chang, what can Tah do?"
"Does Tah like to be soldier way down in heart?"
'"Hush. There bugle blow!"
The staccato notes of assembly rang out across the plain. Soldiers were running from everywhere
toward their companies.
Tah plucked at Wung's sleeve. "Come. Maybe we go again."
Trivensk was bawling orders to a ragged line of yellow soldiers who wrestled with equipment, their guns braced between their knees. Trivensk aided some of them with their packs, and then with a final glance at the now-straight line, turned the company over to the approaching captain.
A bugle blew again, and five thousand men moved out onto the dust-choked road toward the north. Little Tah's heavy rifle felt like fire on his shoulder. Each time he stepped the rough sling seemed to sear the young flesh beneath the grey tunic.
Boots rose and fell, almost invisible through the cloud which increased at each step to crowd deeper into little Tah's throat. Wung, on Tah's left, was walking with lowered head, and, in spite of his own misery Tah felt a quick pang of sympathy as he saw a tear roll down his comrade's face. Tsing, on Tah's right, gave his friend a long sidewise look and then threw his shoulders back to gaze up at the cap ahead of him. He was a soldier!
There were no ten-minute rest periods today, and at every count, Tah thought he heard the tempo of the march quicken. The rifle grew to be a dull ache as the straps of his pack gnawed at his narrow shoulders. Tah thought for a moment of his home in Mukden where he had attended school until a year ago. There one did not choke on dust and have packs beat down one's shoulders.
He remembered how pleasant the room had been with its screens and low tables, its cushions and
its. kindly master.
Tah remembered how he had wept when the master had once beat him across the back with a willow switch for upsetting ink. The pack was slipping a little and threw the boy's stride off.
He glanced at a file closer, barely discernible through the yellow cloud and hastily shifted his rifle to his left shoulder. Would they never give the command for route step? Or were they too hurried to delay the five thousand with stragglers?
Tah remembered that he would make a general some day and felt a little better.
Did they have to count everything? Tah wondered if his family ever thought about him. Probably not, with ten mouths to feed. Was mother still well? His lips were cracking with the dryness of the air. The sore on the right side was getting bad. Those boots looked odd, going up and down, up and down. Wung was still crying.
He had only run away from home three months ago. Tah remembered how he had cried when he had first come out to this eternal war.
That bulge in Tsing's pocket must be his top.
Tah wished he had had a chance to see it spin.
Tsing had said it really was wonderful.
It must be getting late. The dust wall not sparkling any more. There was a temple in Mukden whose bells must be ringing now. Tah thought of the countless times he had walked up the high steps into the garden which lay beyond the second wall. The birds always seemed to whistle at him when he came, and the goldfish seemed to swim faster when he looked at them.
It was quiet in that garden.
And the yellow robed monk had offered to teach him all the songs, that he, too, might wear the robe when he grew older. It was dark now, and Tah couldn't see the boots anymore. He felt as if he were alone in spite of the steady beat of shoes on the road. Tah could feel the dust settling heavily on his face and uniform. The rifle was hurting his left shoulder. Breaking his pace a moment, Tah loosened the sling and slung the weapon across the top of his pack. A hasty adjustment of buckles brought the weight above his shoulder blades. That was better. Monks didn't have to carry packs at all. They sat on little yellow cushions and chanted while bull fiddles droned somewhere in the darkness of the temple.
Robes weren't as heavy as packs, and monks didn't have to listen to
The road was growing rougher. Tar realized that his feet were becoming blistered. They would stop before long and Tah would place some goose grease around his heels so that they wouldn't swell. Last month he had been unable to remove his shoes after an all-night march. The sharper stones bruised the boy's instep.
At midnight a halt was called that the weary men might shed their packs for a moment's rest. Tah set his gear in the road between Tsing's and Wung's, pausing for a moment before he squatted on his heels, to look at the stars.
Wung coughed at his elbow. "Tired?"
"No. Stars pretty, Wung."
"Rifle hurts." Wung sat down on his pack and fell forward sound asleep. Tsing had cast himself full length in the dirt to bury his head in his arms.
Tah thought for a moment about his heels, but as he knelt to dig into his duffle, he, too, collapsed to sprawl beside his friends, his face turned to the stars. Trivensk stopped for a moment to look down at the young face and sighed.
The skin was still soft like a baby's, but the wrinkles around the eyes belied Tah's twelve years. Trivensk started to kneel beside the boy, but squared his shoulders and strode on down the line to check the numbers of his company.
Although they had been halted fifteen minutes, Tah felt that it had been less than one. His shoulders were stiff from the momentary relaxation and his boots felt ugly and cold. He helped Wung adjust his pack and fixed Tsing's rifle so that it could be carried by the sling, and had barely shouldered his own burden when the five thousand began to move.
The dust was writhing up into the air again to blot out the stars. Tah felt his heels trod upon and sluggishly caught the step. He wished he had remembered the goose-grease. His heels felt worse for the halt. How he hated to start out again with cold boots! It would have been better to have kept right on marching. He was glad it was too dark to see the feet ahead of him.
At five o'clock the long column began to stop at intervals, and Tah surmised that the companies up front were being dispersed. After slouching up the road ten yards at a time, Tah's weary company at last came to a trench. It was long, and seemingly without end to its black length.
For the first time, Tah became conscious of a dull booming and a high crackle which had long been in his ears. He had heard it months before and knew that the rumble was made by large guns, and that the crackle was that of rifles and machine guns.
The east was gradually turning grey, and the cold morning air bit into Tah as he stood at the top of a parapet waiting for Trivensk to give an order. The White Russian shouted, and the men tumbled into the trench, to sink as one man on the firestep where they huddled together in sleep.
Tah was too tired to rest. He lay close to his friends with his eyes on the greying sky, Wung was whimpering softly, though he slept.
Nine o'clock found the five thousand waiting at attention in the trenches. The rumble had grown louder, and far down the line, Tah could hear the mad clatter of machine guns. Smoke had begun to roll across the yellow plain before them. There were some hills two or three miles away which Tah liked. There were some green spots there.
Tah wondered how it would feel to sprawl at full length in tall, damp grass. He moved and a cloud of dust rolled from him.
Some little figures in grey were running across the plains toward them. Tah tried to count them, but his eyes smarted. The figures were coming nearer. Trivensk stood up on the parapet and watched them through a pair of field glasses. The crackling was growing louder now, and above his head, Tah could hear the vicious twang of bullets. He knew that they were rifle bullets. He looked at the figures again, and saw some of them kneel, get up, run closer, throw themselves on the ground, get up again.
There were more than he had supposed. Dully he wondered who they were and why they were kneeling.
Trivensk turned toward the far end of the line; and then waved his hand. "Ready on the firing line!" he bellowed. "Load!"
Tah's deep brown eyes sprung wide for a moment and then bent to pick a clip out of his bandolier. He felt the cartridges slither out of the clip and into the breach. He slammed home the bolt and set his sights for a thousand yards.
Trivensk looked out across the plains for a moment and then threw down his arm. "Fire!"
Tah stood on his pack and thrust his rifle toward the grey figures which grew closer every second. His finger pressed the trigger. The recoil almost knocked him away from the parapet. He slammed another shell into the barrel. He tried to aim but the gun shook. He pressed the trigger, loaded, pressed the trigger. The grey figures were close to the trench. Out of the corner of his eye, Tah saw Trivensk spin around and crumple into the trench, half his face gone. Tah's rifle grew hot. He couldn't see the sights. Clip after clip he tore off the bandolier and rattled into the magazine. Tears were blinding him.
The acrid taste of smokeless powder was in his mouth. Load and fire! Load and fire! On his right, Wung cried out. Tah turned to see the child clutch at the sand bags, and then hurtle onto the dusty floor. Load and fire! The grey figures were almost to the trench. Tah could see them falling here and there, but the tide swept on over the bodies. Load and fire! Tsing snatched at his arm, tried to say something. Tsing coughed and thick blood drooled out of his mouth.
Tsing's face fell forward against the wall. Tah heard the death rattle. Load and fire! A huge yellow face leered in back of a bayonet. The bayonet was coming nearer, nearer. The bayonet was long, a thousand miles long. There was red on the end. Tah felt the icy, burning steel rasp against the bones in his chest. The leering face was tugging at the rifle. Tah's body surged back and forth as the face tried to free the bayonet.
There was a sheet of flame as the face pulled the trigger. The rifle came free. Burning powder was eating at Tah's little face. He fell back into the trench across the body of Wung. There was the sky above, all blue and clean. Tah retched. His breast was on fire. Huge waves of ragged pain clutched at his heart. He felt dust beneath his blackened fingers. His little hand plucked at it weakly. There was the sky above, all blue and clean. He couldn't think. A top spun before his eyes. Tsing's top. He would wake up in a minute and go to school. The pain tore at his heart. There was a black cloud up there now. He tried to move. Dust was everywhere. Black dust settling across his eyes. His heart didn't hurt now. The dust settled more thickly. He felt himself falling, falling, falling. Black dust. Falling, falling. Everything would be all right in a moment.
Very different than his writing style most of us are familiar with. Well done, evocative, organized, and very mature.
The only problem is –
This very first published story of Ron Hubbard's was a complete propaganda piece! And not just any kind of propaganda, it was straight-out BRITISH propaganda.
Poor little twelve year-old kids going to battle who still played with tops, White Russian commanders…the futility of war…death and suffering everywhere and for what…
Oh how pointless it all was…
Don't you want to just lay down your arms and go home now?
Gag me with a spoon.
That is just right out of the British propaganda play-book.
Literally! (pun intended).
I'll give you an example, taken from the Special Operations Executive (british intelligence) materials given to the new Office of Strategic Services (OSS – precursor of the CIA) psychological warfare trainees during WWII. It's from a declassified CIA document –
From Robert Cresswell to Major Bruce, December 14, 1942
Considerations in respect to the basis and procedures of Psychological Warfare
Page 3
Psychological Warfare seeks to:
3. Weaken the enemy's will to resist, either by suggesting to his fighting men and civilians that their lot will be a far happier one if they will lay down their arms, or alternatively, by suggesting that retaliations that will become progressively more drastic the longer resistance is employed
Hubbard's Tah story was certainly picture-perfect along that line, wouldn't you say?
The truth of what was going on in China was just a little different. Like the fact that the Chinese were tired of being slaves to the British, and the British only cared about their god-damn opium trade and 'other financial interests' that Chinese independence efforts were threatening.
You know, little details like that.
The White Russian addition is interesting. I'm sure that was partially Linebarger's influence because he had conducted a passionate romance in Peking with an exiled White Russian woman several years his senior, had narrowly survived a suicide pact with her, all before he was 18!
The other reason, the real one, is something decidedly less romantic but definitely worth bringing you up to speed a little on. It is about British intelligence activities – plain and simple.
To really understand it, however, you should really read my Library article Casimir Pilenas Palmer about a Lithuanian spy who worked for both Russian and British intelligence – including working directly for Lord Melville – and operating within America as well.
Let me give you just a few examples of 'White Russians' that were really long-term British intelligence agents, that no one knew about, least of all organizations like the FBI or the Anti-Defamation League.
Here's what Hoover had in combined Russian/British intelligence agent Boris Brasol's FBI file –
In 1925 BRASOL was called to Washington with reference to the controversy about money left here by the Imperial Russian Government, at which time he gave an opinion favorable to the Soviet, and in that way made a good contact with the Soviet. In the following eight or nine years, he was an agent of Amtorg [the Soviet trade bureau in New York] and G.P.U. while on the other hand keeping close contact with the White Russians.
That's Hoover for you, always going after those stupid balls they throw him.
But Amtorg? That oughta ring a bell with the scientologists in-the-know out there.
The Amtorg Trading Corporation was the successor to the Russian Supply company that Boris previously worked for. It is an American company based in New York, founded in 1924 by Russia to serve as its buying and selling organization in trade between the USSR and the USA. It handled the bulk of Soviet-American trade (which was often basically weapons) until 1935, and continues to exist today.
Working as an Amtorg employee served as a convenient cover for British deep cover agents.
Especially White Russians.
Some things are just kept really secret, not even Vincent Astor knew about the extent of British intelligence involvement in Amtorg, or at least he gave President Roosevelt that impression when he wrote to him about it in April of 1940.
Of particular interest was the account of Amtorg Corporation, the thinly disguised cover for Soviet espionage in the United States, and Astor forwarded to FDR details of Amtorg's transactions.10
10. Astor to Roosevelt, n.d., Astor to Roosevelt, Feb. 5, April 18 and 20, 1940, in PSF 116, Roosevelt Library.
By the way, Boris surfaced again in intelligence activities during the time of WWII, this time he's under William Stephenson, who had just arrived to start the British Security Coordination. Tasked to harass anti-war (and Anti-British) protestors, he and the Coudert Brothers harassed various people as being "Red" or communist.
That was standard British propaganda that they came out with around the time that Senator Borah was killing their League of Nations bill. The whole 'red' or communist thing was a BIG distraction, not to mention that communism was totally created by British and Vatican elements in the first place, as part of an attempt to black PR the American Revolution and try to keep that from happening anywhere else.
The whole 'bolsheviks' hysteria was also a big deal. When Sir George Mansfield Smith-Cumming, the head of MI6, sent William Wiseman to New York in 1916 – to establish special intelligence section V MIc – he recruited Norman Thwaites. Thwaites had worked for many years on the New York World staff, he was the private secretary of Joseph Pulitzer.
Thwaites had helped Milner to groom another man who was chosen to become a major mouthpiece for the slavemasters – H. Wickham Steed – the man who would begin the public assault on the newly created "race" idea of "the Jews", in 1920.
While Thwaites was the personal secretary of Joseph Pulitzer – Steed was appointed as the Paris correspondent for the New York World. Using this as a jump-off point, Milner then had Steed join The Times in 1896 as a foreign correspondent, working briefly out of Berlin before transferring successively to Rome ( from 1897 until 1902) and then Vienna (1902–13).
In 1914 he moved to London to take over as foreign editor of The Times.
Just in time for their planned war – WWI- working directly for C.F.G. Masterman through Milner's other man in The Times – Geoffrey Dawson – to plant whatever propaganda articles that the Slavemasters wanted in The Times. Steed would later be the man who first publicized The Protocols of Zion.
That, is a very, very, nasty connection there, ladies and gentleman. It absolutely proves complicity on the part of British intelligence to rally later attacks against the "enemy" – The Jews.
The same complicity on the part of British intelligence of rallying hate against the "enemy" of Communists/Bolsheviks and "international anarchists" as they were then calling them, prior to the lets-attack-the-Jews now operation in 1920.
It was Wickham Steed who first broached the Bolshevist/Jew change of propaganda angle, in an editorial he "wrote" (as in approved writing) for the Daily Mail on 28 March 1919. In it, he "accused" the British Prime Minister David Lloyd George of betraying the White Russians because of a plot by "international Jewish financiers" and the Germans to help the Bolsheviks stay in power.
Remember, that kind of fomenting up the public against "the Bolsheviks" was entirely a British intelligence operation. On recommendation of Wiseman – because agent Sydney Reilly would help to foment the war conditions the British so desired – Reilly had been "officially" tasked into the SIS in March 1918 and posted to Murmansk with the codename "ST-1".
His task was to foment resistance "against" the Bolsheviks.
That is over a year earlier than Steed's article. Now you begin to see the point of British Intelligence feeding propaganda though the Times-Ledger Cable Service to British-controlled journalists such as Carl Ackerman. It was yet another British attempt to foment attacks on "communists" and "bolsheviks" in the Red Bible news articles of 1919.
Examples of White Russian British intelligent agents –
Rabbi Gottheil's son, Professor Richard H. Gottheil, held the Chair of Semitic and Rabbinical Literature at Columbia. During WWI, starting some time around 1915/16, he worked as a deep-cover agent for British Intelligence – for William Wiseman on Bolshevik/White Russian matters (amongst other things).
Stephenson also had another project going with Dick Ellis, his BSC deputy. His full name is Colonel Charles Howard "Dick" Ellis.
image from http://www.specialforcesroh.com, where he is listed as SIS.
Ellis was an Australian who joined the SIS in October of 1921. He had abandoned an undergraduate course at Oxford, and was promptly sent to the Istanbul office where he married a Russian woman and became the contact for a number of Russian agents.
Reference – Secret History of British Intelligence by Keith Jeffery.
He was later assigned to the Berlin Station in October of 1923, where he was given a list of Russian agents to run and was also approached by numerous White Russians to assist in British anti-Bolshevik operations to help create the conditions for WWII.
He also had a hand in actually running the Coordinator of Information office (1941-42) and the Office of Strategic Services (1942-45) for the official head, William Donovan. More on this later.
To continue reading about Ellis, please see my Reading Library article titled: British Security Compendium: The Book and the Lords
You can also check out this 1944 CIA declassified document over in our Reading Library, about using White Russians to Spy for the OSS (the predecessor to the CIA).

So, Ron Hubbard's working in a bit about White Russians in his Tah story, is clearly showing his knowledge of British intelligence operations in China, but at the same time he is somewhat positioning a White Russian in a negative way – which is quite fascinating actually.
That was also standard intelligence action at the time.
Bringing up British/Russian agent Boris Brasol, again, he's a perfect example. He went way out of his way to mis-portray both White Russians and Bolsheviks. Both he and Casimir Pilenas Palmer were often used to feed false information to various targets within the U.S. government community.
All this was going on, historically, not all that long before Hubbard writes his story here.
It's kind of sad, in a way, to see Hubbard under the influence, so to speak, so young. It reminds me of this haunting picture of Steed's associate at the London Times, Geoffrey Dawson.
Look at the young men in the background, that Dawson was busy influencing.
Ron Hubbard was that young when he first starts propagandizing with Linebarger.
Hubbard in 1932
Such a waste of talent this was, of Hubbard and Linebarger.
But, it does serve to mark – with a big fat marker –
The exact point Hubbard and Linebarger began working for British intelligence interests.
Hubbard's first actual intelligence mission actually began that same year – his Caribbean Motion Picture Expedition that he started advertising for (in the Hatchet, no less) just a month or two after he wrote this story!
It was aboard one of the few 4-masted schooners, non-motorized, left operating in the world – the Doris Hamlin. If you'd like to read more about it, follow the link above.
Last but not least, here's an OCR'd PDF of Hubbard and Linebarger's Tah story.

Separating spaces
MOVING to Tenerife can mean making lots of adjustments to your lifestyle, often because many properties are more open-plan than back in the UK.
In the UK, it's common to have a separate dining area, kitchen and lounge, partly so that it's easy to keep them warm. In Tenerife, you may find they are all in the same room! Equally, some properties are studios which may have a separate sleeping area, but have seating, kitchen and sleeping zones, all sharing the same room.
There are several reasons for the open-plan design approach. Firstly, it promotes better airflow throughout the property in warmer climates, and, without walls being in the way, you can get more accommodation inside less space.
So what can you do to separate certain areas, without making structural changes, or incurring a lot of expense? Firstly, you can visually separate certain areas, by clustering furniture in groups. In the lounge area, for example, a bright rug between the sofa and chairs will draw the eye, and make it into a "zone" gathered around the rug.
Equally, the dining table and chairs in another area of the same room will clearly be an eating area. You could make this distinction even more obvious, by painting the wall in a different colour for each area.
If you want to create a physical separation, there are also lots of options. A curtain track fitted to the ceiling, with a curtain tied back during the day, but closed at night, would create a separate sleeping area in a studio apartment, for example.
You could use the same feature, or even floor-to-ceiling vertical blinds, to separate a kitchen from the living room at night (for when you haven't washed the dishes, perhaps!).
An open bookcase can also be used to divide one area from another, and has the added advantage of providing you with a great place to display a variety of books, ornaments and plants. If your front door opens directly into your lounge, this bookcase idea is also a great way of creating a kind of hall area.
Basically, any furniture can be used to create a barrier between certain areas, but you will need to ensure that the unfinished backs of cupboards are not exposed for all to see!
For ideas on how to divide your living areas, ask for some design advice from Deco Nuevo, who give free quotes, without obligation, in your home.

Home > Case Studies > CW represented the landlord to lease for the first flagship PRADA store in Vietnam
The site at No. 63 Ly Thai To street, Hanoi CBD was previously occupied by Gucci. However, due to conflict between Gucci and their distributor in Vietnam, landlord of the location - Hongkong Land appointed Cushman & Wakefield as their agent to find other tenant for this area.
The selected tenant must be the top world fashion brand and be able to pay for one of the most expensive locations in Vietnam.
Cushman & Wakefield's strategy was to find out luxury fashion brand which wanted to directly open and manage their first flagship store in Vietnam.
Cushman & Wakefield successfully approached one of the most famous fashion brands in the world -PRADA and persuaded them to rent one of the most expensive and luxurious locations in Hanoi CBD.
After 10 months of negotiation, Cushman & Wakefield managed to persuade PRADA and helped the Landlord of No.63 Ly Thai To building to achieve the highest rent in Vietnam.
The store is scheduled to open in Q1 2015.

The timing belt transmission is composed of an endless belt with equal-spaced teeth on the inner peripheral surface and a pulley with corresponding teeth. During operation, the teeth are meshed with the tooth grooves of the pulley to transmit motion and power. A new belt drive with the advantages of transmission and chain drive gear transmission.
Timing belt and synchronous wheel installation and use precautions:
Reduce the center distance of the pulley. If there is a tensioning pulley, loosen it first, then adjust the center distance after attaching the strap. For fixed center distance transmission, the pulley should be removed first, and the belt should be attached to the pulley before the pulley is fixed to the shaft.
The following points should also be noted during installation:
1 When installing the timing belt, if the center distance of the two pulleys can be moved, the center distance of the pulley must be shortened first, and then the timing belt is installed, and then the center distance is reset. If there is a tensioning wheel, first relax the tensioning wheel, then install the timing belt, and then install the tensioning wheel.
2 When attaching the timing belt to the pulley, remember not to use too much force, or use a screwdriver to harden the timing belt to prevent the tensile layer in the timing belt from being broken by the appearance. When designing the pulley, it is better to use a structure in which the two shafts can move closer to each other. If the structure is not allowed, it is better to attach the timing belt to the corresponding shaft together with the pulley.
3 Control the appropriate initial tension.
4 In the synchronous belt drive, the parallelism of the two pulley axes is relatively high, otherwise the timing belt will run off when working, and even jump out of the pulley. Non-parallel axes will also cause uneven pressure, which will cause early tooth wear.
5 The frame supporting the pulley must have sufficient rigidity, otherwise the pulley will cause the two axes to be non-parallel when the combination lock is operated.

I have been busy in September so my reading has suffered but I still have things to share. (You should know that about me by now!) Not a single Romance on my list this time, either. Sheesh, what is the matter with me?
I picked up some books on CDs at my library's used bookstore. Noting I wanted badly to read, but things that were interesting enough. I picked up Honor of Spies by W.E.B. Griffin and William E. Butterworth IV because it's narrated by Scott Brick. Love his voice and he is just as dreaming reading this one. He does some decent accents here, too. But I had no idea this was book 5 in a series. You mean, Historical War Fiction and Suspense/Thrillers have series going on? I thought only Romance and maybe science fiction was in to that. Kidding, but I didn't think about it when I started the book. It's not a bad story, a handful of running gags that I enjoy (People keep telling Howard Hughes that he looks just like Howard Hughes) and characters that are seen from several points of view. I will finish it and maybe look for the others in the series because I felt I was missing something at the start. It stands alone pretty well once you get into the story.
A few things that are a bit odd, and only because I am listening to it instead of reading it. The main character is named Cletus Frade. Whenever the narration says, Frade nodded, I hear "frayed knot" or "'Fraid not". And the other name that is similar, Frogger, pronounced in the German way, soft "G's" is a bit confusing at times. And we get told a lot of things that happened instead of being shown those events happening. Not all the time, but often enough.
I love the history of World War II so you would think this would be a fun book for me. Yes, it is good to have Hitler be a character in the book when I know how he will end. But I apparently skipped a lot of the stuff about Italy and Mussolini. I actually googled him because I had no idea how much was being made up and how much actually happened. There you go! Good reason to keep reading.
Don't get me started on the planes, cars, and guns that are almost other characters here. Lots of great information, ideas, and possibilities. I will be thinking about that in my own writing because it resonates.
And then I read K.B. Spangler's Greek Key, another spin-off from her webcomic but not a Rachel Peng story. Hope Blackwell takes the lead in this one, again using a lot of historical references and some fun, unique details. Like Speedy the Uplifted Koala. (Uplifted is a David Brin term, I hope he won't mind if I use it here) Speedy escaped from a lab by killing the scientist who was using him as the next in a long line of koala guinea pigs. Er. Anyway, Speedy has a brain that makes him smarter than any human and he has an affinity for ancient languages. He works as a contractor with the Smithsonian Institute, translating ancient newspapers and manuscripts and so on.
The thing is, I was talking to a writer friend about wanting to put more pets into my stories because just about everyone I know has a dog, cat, bird, fish, feral possum, or gecko around. My friend said that might work for characters that didn't move around much, but the animals could become a distraction otherwise. She also told me about a story she read where a dog had been given the gift of human speech. The thing was, the dog just talked and became an annoying secondary character. He didn't act at all dog-like. Speedy, on the other hand, is very much a koala. He's been bioengineered to eat cereal as well as eucalyptus leaves, but he still loves to sit in the trees when possible. He uses his claws to climb up his favorite people and sleeps a lot. When he gets hormonal, he gets thrown over the wall into the zoo's koala enclosure. And he's territorial so he can't be away from home for longer than two weeks. There's the ticking clock many stories need for the suspense and conflict to work.
I'm nearly done with Leviathan Wakes by James S.A. Corey. If you are an Expanse fan, you will recognize that. I do love science fiction and have so far enjoyed this story. At the end of a very tense section, I took a breather and realized this was how it's done. The characters are, literally, dying and getting weaker and bloodier by the moment. Still, they stop and work to get free of the mess they are in. This clock is ticking louder than any I've read. They had X number of hours before the radiation exposure will have shut down more of their bodily functions than the ship's sickbay can reverse. Plus the bio-weapon loose where they are might get them before the radiation does. And no one wants them to make it to the docking area where their ship awaits.
I'm impressed with how clearly the characters are differentiated. The one consistently does stupid things in the name of justice. The other one tries to stop him but has no leverage in the situation. Even the two characters with similar names can be told apart by the way they talk and the things they do. Awesome writing. I will try to read the whole series, but I have been told it starts to be too alike in book after book. Not always a bad thing but this did keep some friends from reading the whole series.
Looking forward to re-reading Sundiver by David Brin for my book club. I enjoyed the story the first time around and went on to read all of the Uplift War books I could get my hands on. Still love the concept from beginning to end. Hope the rest of the club agrees.
I hope to get more reading done in the next month, but it's super crazy to be me. Thanks for reading, I'll be back on Thursday.

Burton Snowboards & Clothing
Since the beginning of the snowboard era Eurofun Burton Snowboards has been in the collection. If there is one brand for the development of snowboarding as a sport, but also as in the material, Burton is by far the most progressive. Burton exists since 1977 and was founded by Jake Burton Carpenter. This makes Burton one of the oldest snowboard brands still in existence. Despite the fact that Burton has received a lot of concierge gas, the brand is still at the forefront of the development of snowboarding. In addition to snowboards, Burton also has a large collection of clothing, backpacks and bindings.
Burton Snowboards
Burton offers a wide range of Snowboards for every type of snowboarder. Whether you are a freerider or more in the park. Burton delivers the gear. Still driven by the world's best snowboarders, you know that you have a piece of quality with a Burton Snowboard.
Burton Bindings:
Let's say that the Burton bond in its most classic form has been the mother of all bonds. But Burton, of course, does not stop in his development. In recent years the material use has become more exotic, resulting in lighter and stronger bonds. The fit and ease of use still make the Burton binding the choice for many snowboarders.
Burton Backpack
The Burton backpacks have been running almost as long as the brand itself. The designs of the backpacks have always combined the user with cool designs and design features. this results in backpacks that you can take with you on your daily activities at the office or school, but also when you go into the mountains in search of a new ski or snowboard adventure.
Nothing is more changeable than the conditions in the mountains. it can change from cold to warm in a short time or vice versa. It is important that your clothes fit in with this. In addition, snowboarding is a very different movement than skiing, which requires certain characteristics of the snowboard clothing. with the Burton clothing collections you have everything you are looking for as an active snowboarder. Good temperature and freedom of movement to make the most of your day.

Carlsberg has launched a £15m integrated marketing campaign called "The Danish Way", aimed at revitalising its Carlsberg and Carlsberg Export brands in the UK.
The campaign sees the brand emphasise its Danish roots, with the nation's philosophy on life forming the centrepiece of activity across packaging, TV, cinema, out of home and digital channels.
Central to the campaign is a new TV ad starring screen villain Mads Mikkelsen, who plays the role of a modern-day Danish philosopher pondering the secrets to his nation's happiness as he cycles through the streets of Denmark.
The campaign marks the start of a new marketing approach from Carlsberg in the UK, aimed at confronting the long-term decline in the lager category by helping key consumer groups and beer drinkers to reappraise the brand through its rich history and Danish provenance.
New Danish-themed packaging for both the Carlsberg and Carlsberg Export brands rolled out in February, and wider out-of-home, experiential, digital and social activity is also planned throughout the year.
A new trade marketing drive has also been developed in partnership with Shazam. Designed to connect consumers with 'The Danish Way' campaign, users are invited to photo-scan 'shazam-able' Carlsberg Export branding on a number of touchpoints spanning the on- and off-trade.
Over 200,000 Carlsberg Export 'København' glasses will be available in the off-trade as a gift with purchase, supported by in-store marketing materials.
The TV campaign will run for an initial four-week period after launching on April 21 with a Channel 4 takeover. A second burst is planned for September. The ad will also appear on video-on-demand and in cinemas across the country for an extended period, supported by short-form content rolled out across Carlsberg's social media channels.
Liam Newton, Vice-President of marketing, Carlsberg UK, said: "Denmark is known as being one of the happiest nations in the world, and their philosophy on life forms the centrepiece of our campaign. Consumers will see Carlsberg sharing the Danes' rituals and philosophies throughout the year, helping them to live life the Danish way.
"Some consumers see mainstream lagers as interchangeable, and we know from extensive research that it's incredibly important for them to be aware of the heritage of the individual brands they consume. We want our campaign to celebrate our Danish origins and bring new meaning to the iconic 'Probably' line."

If he is in Pakistan, bin Laden "would not be taken into custody," Major General Shaukat Sultan Khan told ABC News in a telephone interview, "as long as one is being like a peaceful citizen."
The Pakistani military is striking truces with Islamic separatists along the country's border with Afghanistan, freeing Pakistani militants and al-Qaida fighters to join Taliban insurgents battling U.S.-led troops and government forces in Afghanistan..... when the military failed to crush the separatists, the Bush administration agreed to support Pakistan's truce-making efforts and pledged millions of dollars in additional aid.
Parody is absolutely obseleted by this administration... "Hey, what do you think we should do with Osama, that guy who crashed the planes into the WTC on 9/11?" "Uh, how about, we give the country he's hiding in, who just signed a peace treaty with his terrorist organization, millions of dollars?"
Can I get a "Testify"? Plz?

Women's Puffect™ Mid Hooded Jacket is rated out of 5 by 3.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nate412 from Warm enough for cold days Great for cold days and easy to pack in carry on bags. Wife loves it
Date published: 2019-11-19
Rated 5 out of 5 by blondeflamingo from Warm and Stylish I love this coat! It's very warm with the right amount of poof that keeps you insulated but not too much that you feel like a seal on the Oregon coast flopping around. I'm 5'11 and ordered a size small. It's roomy enough for big sweater sleeves and lets you move around freely and without tension, like when you put on your seatbelt every. day. I also really appreciate that the pockets are at the perfect height for me! It's hard to find a good winter coat, but this one is worth investing it!
Date published: 2019-11-06
Rated 5 out of 5 by Yuri123 from SO CUTE This coat is so cute and warm! It does run a little big, but i like the over-sized look to jackets and it also helps to fit well over bigger sweaters and jackets underneath. I always get compliments wearing this jacket and it really does keep you nice and warm. I got the black in xs and is now going to be a staple in my wardrobe.

Tascam Launches US-2x2 and US-4x4 Audio Interfaces
TASCAM LAUNCHES US-2x2 AND US-4x4 AUDIO INTERFACES
New USB Interfaces Combine Great Sound, Driver Performance, and Functional Design
TASCAM has unveiled the US-2x2 and US-4x4, two new USB Audio Interfaces that combine great-sounding audio, solid drivers and innovative, functional design.
The US-2x2 is a 2-in/2-out USB interface, bus powered from your Mac or Windows computer. A pair of Ultra-HDDA mic preamps provide up to 57dB of gain and the best noise and distortion specs in their class. The audio design features high-performance, musical components like NE5532 op amps for rich sound quality without coloring the source. The US-4x4 adds two more Ultra-HDDA preamps and two more balanced line outputs for a total of four inputs and four outputs.
Both interfaces include class-compliant drivers for use with tablets like the iPad when using a power supply (included with the US-4x4, optional on the US-2x2.) The units require no driver installation on Mac OS X, and all-new high-performance drivers are being written in-house for Windows ASIO use. Each of the interfaces includes MIDI in and out, as well as two DAW applications to choose from – both Cakewalk SONAR X3 LE and Abelton Live Lite 9.
The all-aluminum case was designed by The Box design studio in Germany, and includes a pair of removable "bio-cell" side panels. In addition to their striking design, the side panels angle the interface towards you on a desktop. This angle makes the switches and knobs easier to read without twisting your neck around.
With solid audio specs, iOS compatibility, and an easy-to-read angled design, the US-2x2 is the perfect choice for desktop and mobile studios.
US-2x2 features:
•Two high-quality Ultra-HDDA mic/line preamps with up to 57dB of gain
•Two-in/two-out USB 2.0 interface with up to 96kHz/24-bit resolution
•XLR/1/4" combination input jacks
•Zero-latency Direct Monitoring
•High-quality audio components like NE5532 op amps for 125dBu EIN and 105dB S/N ratio
•USB Audio Compliant 2.0 drivers for iOS compatibility
•Independent line out and headphone level controls
•MIDI Input and Output
•Aluminum body with angled design for better desktop visibility
•Optional power supply
•Includes SONAR X3 LE and Abelton Live Lite 9
US-4x4 differences:
•Four high-quality Ultra-HDDA mic/line preamps with up to 57dB of gain
•Four-in/four-out interface with up to 96kHz/24-bit resolution
•Power Supply included (required for use)

Helping people with computers... one answer at a time.
Wapitr.exe is a part of PurityScan.wtss Adware.
What is wapitr.exe?
Updated 8-Jul-2004: According to the folks out at Kephyr.com, wapitr.exe is part of PurityScan.wtss Adware. While I haven't tried theirs, they also have a spyware scanner that should clean it.
Article C2047 - June 14, 2004 « »
I have Norton 2003. When I do a complete scan, it identifies these, but will not fix or delete them. How can I get rid of these:
cdt bbi8016.exe
Please help! Thank You.
This article may help:
I'm running Norton Anti-Virus 2004, and I update every week. Last night NAV ran and gave me a message that the following files weren't deleted but that I should do something with them (exclude them or ??):
(in addition to the files David Moore listed in his June 23, 2004 message):
I found all of these in my Windows (XP) directory. What would happen if I renamed these files to something like xx-1, xx-2, etc.?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
They all look virus related. Renaming them is a good idea in case you need to rename back, but it's what I would do.
Wat is wapiter.exe??? It seems to be making my computer slow down alot:S:S Is it spywear or a virus???
Did you read the article you commented on? It has a pointer to more information.
WHAT PROGRAM WILL DELETE OR REMOVE "systb.exe
wupdt.exe". I HAVE MCAFEE(VIRUS SCAN FINDS IT,BUT CAN'T GET RID OF IT), SPYBOT, HIJACK. ANY PROGRAM BETTER THAN ANY OTHERS.
I'll direct you to these two articles: http://ask-leo.com/279 and http://ask-leo.com/195
Any files ending with .exe can be deleted by restarting your Windows XP. Before it goes into Windows, press "F8" immediately and then go into Safe Mode. Next choose "Administrator". Once there, relocate these files ending with .exe and right click on them one by one to delete. Next, restart your computer and you will notice these files are gone.

Early in the growing season, it's critical to establish some sort of spraying program to control insects and fungal infestations. Cultural methods for protection - rotation, removal of debris, pruning - are also critical and something that is done year 'round, but that is for another post. Here are the chemicals that I use that I consider safe when used properly and get the job done.
Thuricide, or Bt, is a bacterium that targets caterpillars only. I've found it to be the best control of the cabbage worm. I also spray it on the stems of squash plants to prevent the vine borer, which is a moth. Once a caterpillar comes into contact with Bt it stops feeding and dies within a day or two. The cabbage worms had already done some damage to the cole crops by the time I sprayed them with Bt, but I haven't seen any further damage. I just try to avoid using it on a brassica shortly before harvest.
The first sets of brassicas that I planted were mowed down by the cutworms. That's another control that I will have to develop next year. I've read that Bt sprayed on corn flakes around the base of the plants will stop them but haven't tried that yet.
Last year my two apple trees were beset by some sort of scale and aphids at the same time. I found that a combination of insecticidal soap and Neem extract was very effective in killing them, or any small soft-bodied insect such as thrips. I use 2.5 oz of soap and 1 oz of Neem per gallon of water, first adding the soap since it helps disperse the oil. The soap kills by dessicating, or sucking the water out of the insect, while the Neem disrupts cell membranes. It may not kill a full grown squash bug but it will make them come to the top of the leaf where they can be picked off. As an added bonus, I've found that Neem is effective in controlling powdery mildew on squash.
I noticed that a commercial maker of pesticides is using the same combination, with added pyrethrins, as an organic insecticide. I tried adding some pyrethrins to the first mix that I prepared and can say that it is deadly to flea beetles, but the pyrethrins may not have been necessary. It's important to avoid pyrethrins in the morning when bees are about. I also used this combination on the cucumber vines which were under attack by a bug that looks like a squash bug but has a harder shell (bugs are actually an insect family that has mouthparts that penetrate a leaf and suck the juices from the plant). It killed the bugs but I'm concerned that they may have already transferred a fungus or bacterium into the plants. The growing tips look bad.
The newest addition for fungal control is Liqui-Cop, for liquid copper. This is basically copper in a chemical form that is soluble in water, specifically copper diammonia diacetate complex, which sounds more exotic than it is. An alternative soluble copper is copper octanoate, or copper soap, which is found at Lowe's. I went with the Liqui-Cop, which I bought online, because it appears to be more effective. It's easy to mix and use. At a copper equivalent of 8%, the amount of copper in a gallon of mix at 4 teaspoons per gallon is actually very small.
The Liqui-Cop is mainly for the tomatoes, where it is supposed to be effective against bacterial spot, bacterial speck, early blight and late blight. As a preventive I have been spraying the tomatoes weekly, as well as the cucumbers, raspberries, and potatoes. So far the tomatoes look good, about 4 feet tall, but it's really too early to tell if it works.
One pesticide not shown is a deer and rabbit repellent. The bunnies have been a real problem this year. They ate most of the bean seedlings, some of the carrots, then got into the Earthbox and ate the lettuce. I reseeded the beans and once up, applied the repellent. The first ingredient is putrefied egg whites, and it smells kind of bad. It seems to work though and may keep them off the beans until they are big enough to be unpalatable.

That's interesting about using BT for the squash vine borer - I should try that as an alternative to covering which is a pain in the butt.

I didn't realize either that Bt could be used for vine borers. The tomatoes have some kind of wilt and I've been looking into Serenade which uses a different Bacillus.

Ultra high current
Regularly, currents suddenly decide to leave the paved roads that power system designers have laid-out for them. This path of least resistance is so enjoyable, that current magnitude increases tremendously: short circuit. Much is done to avoid this situation, but still, in transmission systems roughly one short circuit has to be reckoned with per 100 km of overhead line per year. The lower the system voltage the more frequently "circuits short".
There is one location where short-circuit current can be particularly high: this is directly at the output of a power plant. There, before transformation of the voltage to transmission levels, at the output of the generators, even normal, continuous current can go up to tremendous values. Generator circuit breakers need to master faults in that location.
Already in an early stage of electricity generation, it was understood that these devices are "special" and when the first designs of such specialized breakers were conceived, KEMA Laboratories were actively cooperating with the manufacturers of such apparatus.
The reason was and is sheer power. With four generators at hand in lab 2, the high-power laboratory can simulate a faulted power plant rather accurately. The designers of lab 4 had the vision to incorporate the generation of extreme current, not only for circuit breakers, but also for through fault testing of generator busducts, the connection from power plant to the outside world. In the initial design, a high-current busbar was constructed directly connecting the lab generators, all in parallel, with the test bay. In this way current op to 400 kA in the test bay became possible. With the increase of current, the main challenge became the management of the huge Lorentz forces involved. H.A. Lorentz was born in Arnhem in 1853, and apart from his major contribution to Einstein's theory of relativity, he is best known because of his description of the forces between current carrying conductors, more precisely, the forces on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field, summarized in the well-known "left hand rule" from secondary school physics.
Lorentz would be very pleased to see that "his" forces, taken to the extreme, were controlled in the laboratory based in his town of birth. Over the years, mechanically complicated but extremely robust constructions were developed to deal with the forces associated with current exceeding 1 million of amperes as a peak value. Again, KEMA Laboratories kept pace with the market requirements. Even when generator breakers needed to be tested for the largest nuclear power stations, the challenge was met.
Not only fault situations had to be implemented in testing, also the verification of thermal withstand of long duration continuous current had to be taken to the extreme. In the nineties, temperature rise tests in the high-voltage laboratory reached levels up to several ten-thousands of amperes.
Generator circuit breakers passed a development, from airblast, to SF6 and even vacuum technology. KEMA Laboratories also internally benefitted from the ongoing developments, since its own generators must be protected. From the seventies, airblast generator circuit breakers, better known as "master breakers" from AEG were employed in the Arnhem laboratories. These shall not only protect our own installation, but they must also protect the apparatus under test. Here, speed is the keyword, because if the huge test current is not switched off very quickly after a fault in the test object develops, there is no way to detect the root cause of failure. Airblast technology, now abandoned in commercial applications, appeared to be very reliable for master breakers, and is now continues to safeguard the new generators.

KPFK Listener Candidate: Jerry Van
My name is Jerry Van, long time listener and sponsor of this station, with phone room experience, and on request from front desk, I have given out business cards.
Hollywood's Something's Happening Show, with listening to Roy's program over the years, he has given listeners and us, in phone room a valuable history lesson of the Pacifica Stations Archives, and our many problems. The biggest is getting and retaining "listener sponsors!" .
As a long time Hawker. In 1974 I sold fruit on the Venice Boardwalk. In that business a good peach is the hook! "The visual and formulary", of station logo is that if we can make it this way we can represent the station to its full potential.
I have been going to board meetings and station functions, I see need for leadership, I was invited to Grace Arron's apartment to meet on air talent, that supported us.
Summer Rees, made it very plain to me, we were to support the promotion of the station, with Bill Boards, bus benches, and simplest of station logos on business cards.
Selling and promoting Old Radio is a challenge I am prepared for. Listening to the views of others, with no intent.
The idea I have is to be able to download calendar of station events, with a tree of Peace for logo, what is wrong with "Peace, Love, and understanding? The station logo poster with Jigonsasee tree of peace, (Incense Cedar) one of the most prized and valuable tree at Arlington West with Veterans for Peace, on one side of the board walk we have set aside for many forms. Blaze Bonpane has spoken there many times, we are there every Sunday please come and check us out.
Thank you,
Sincerely, Jerry

Having a small lighting issue of lights bleeding through mesh. Is this an easy fix?
Don't know if you're still here but turn force 2-sided textures on in rendering settings and make the lights render raytraced shadows.
Even if you ultimately use neither it might troubleshoot your problem.
Old QTDDTOT thread is dead.
Is using noise reduction filters generally frowned upon for stills or is it acceptable for some cases?
What context? In most cases end result is all that matters.
>Is being efficient and saving time frowned upon?
Usually not.
Archviz. Is it really worth waiting the long hours?
Hey everyone, I'm looking for this file or an stl of this. However the one on the site you need to pay for, does anyone know where i can find it for free?
This is the site
Here you go.
That was almost convincing
What's the equivalent of 1 second shutter speed in V-ray camera settings?
This is the default shutter speed when making a vray camera in Maya.
It's in inverse seconds, so 200 = 1/200 seconds. To get a shutter speed of 1 second, just set it to 1.
Ok, so 2 seconds should be .5 shutter speed, right?
So /3/ seems much more focused on gaming side of 3d creation. Anyone know where I can go to talk about and argue over different architectural/urban design based programs?
Like autodesk, sketchup, lumen, vray, etc etc etc
What I am facing right now is a good way to take complex large urban designs into a good real time renderer. Currently testing and playing with LumenRT. I have tried unity in the past but it didn't play well with sketchup.
I used lightup in sketchup for a while but it just wasn't giving me the quality I wanted for larger areas....

Hello! I'm new to Zbrush and 3D in general, I'm looking for a group to join where we I can learn more about 3D and maybe share ideas and collabs. I like Anime and Video game type stuff, mainly character creation.
It would be nice to make some friends in the 3D world, thanks!
"we" "have" a chat and there is some steam channel for devs from /v/ called
"/v/'s Game Dev Crew"
Ah ok thanks, so I just have to join here? I never used Discord before
I don't see anything, the link only takes me to a blank screen @me, sorry for being a noob
What is the best way to unwrap certain things, such as a cylinder, without creating seems?
cylinder projection
seams are inevitable in most textures. What you want is to blend the textures on top of the seams, after creating a unwrapped map.
Exporting the model to Photoshop do the trick, but you can try Zbrush to handpaint the thing if you´re desperate.
not using standard 2-d mapping.
what you want to use is 4-dimensional tesseract mapping
SCI-FI animated short film "EMPSILLNES" by Jakub Grygier. See What one person can do at home in 4 years on
single computer!
Empsillnes is a short animated film about survivor on destroyed spaceship who looks forward to be rescued and
return home. He does not know that the world he remembers has changed forever.
3 years render time i'm guessing...
really good cinematography. This guy knows composition and light. However his animation is dogshit and apparently he's colorblind.
The story was boring, the animation was poor, and holy fucking christ what is up with the color? Jesus, man. I understand, you're trying to set the tone but do you have to dull the ENTIRE short with fucking blue and brown?
Not even for the action scene is it changed to something different. You link blue and action together? >>508918 I think this nigger is right, he might actually be color blind.
What does /3/ think of Mudbox? What are its advantages/disadvantages compared to say Zbrush? I work a lot with Max and figure since it is autodesk so I want something that is easy to use with those programs
Poor mans Mari
Don't bother. I'm one week into Zbrush after 4 months of Mudbox and there's just way more functions and tools.
For basic sculpting I guess there's not much of a difference. But overall Zbrush is years ahead.
Go read the list of released features for Mudbox 2016 and you'll understand.
Mari got so fucked up and horrible in its last updates. Fuck mari.

I'm new to this board and 3D modelling in general, so forgive me if this question is too dumb
I feel stupid as hell for asking, but I'm starting to learn Zbrush and I accidentaly hit ctrl+F and it completly screwed up what I was doing... now my brush is creating multiple copies of what I am working on (my "tool"?), and it is like I'm stuck in a creating mode instead of editing/modeling as I'd like
I can't find out how to leave this mode. The brushes and alphas are locked. I've read that ctrl+F fills the canvas...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Ctrl N to get rid of all the nonsense in pixol mode then just click and drag on the canvas to create your model again. After that just hit the edit button on the top left of the screen. This is all from memory so hopefully that helps.
Thanks for the help... today I pressed T trying to reach for the Move Topological and got into the same alley: the brush now makes replicas of my model.
I placed one, pressed edit and did ctrl+N to get rid of the rest.
Just for my knowledge: what the hell is this mode used for?
It' some avant garde 2.5d zbrush bulshit, don't worry about it.
I've seen people using it, but it's not really that useful.
Working on a project for school. Have to write my name on a brick wall using a flamethrower, essentially charring my name onto the wall. I'm having trouble figuring out how exactly to go about the charring. Making it look like it's actually being written with the flamethrower.
Any tips? Suggestions?
Well, what program are you using?
3dsmax. Sorry should have specified that.
switch to XSI and use ICE

It's well done, but demons and fantasy creatures are start to become boring subject, if you want to depict a demon try a more original approach.
Once upon a time, different DCC applications were the standard for different types of markets that used them. For instance, Lightwave was the go to program for television CG work, because of the very fast workflow, while Max was the one people used for games most often. There was crossover, of course, but the trends were definitely visible.
I'm wondering which programs dominate which parts of the market now. I ask because I am thinking about focusing my efforts these days toward getting as good as I can with one package, rather than having so-so skills with a lot...

Bumping this because it is a good question, and I don't know the answer.
I need something done.
>inb4 this is not a request board.
I know very little about 3d modeling, but I also need an animation of the male genitalia, specifically the testes rising up into the body and lowering back down again, like what happens when the temperature changes. Preferably with a dick hanging there too. It doesn't have to be SUPER realistic, although it should very much resemble a penis, maybe something like what a diagram in a medical book would look like, but 3d. A cross sectional view of the scrotum would be cool...

So go post a job on fiverr or something. Anyone that is half decent at this stuff expects to be paid.
The only ways most would do anything for free is if it's a personal project of their own, or if it's for a small charity without the money to hire someone.
Couldn't this be done very easily by using morpher targets?
Anyway, getting something done for free to you is probably not gonna happen.
You can do this quite easily in Blender using shape keys. I have a Makehuman figure with male genitalia and can control an erect member. I don't think it's wise for me to post it on a blue board (as I have warnings already and can't risk a ban as I can't change my IP )
Hi /3/, I'm wondering what is the best way to learn character art?
Should I be focusing on box modelling or should I be focusing on zbrush?
Should I be learning 2D and traditional sculpting?
Help me /3/. The sticky has only broken links for the character section and something that was written in 2003. Enlighten me /3/, I feel like I'm in Plato's cave.
>Should i be focusing on box modelling or should i be focusing on zbrush?
Both of them actually. Box modelling is good for some 3D models you want to createl but theres also poly by poly, wich is way better than box modelling if you want to model a car for example.
Zbrush is something really good as well. You can create organic stuff "easily". So it would be cool if you study a 3D poligonal program and zbrush.
>Should i be learning 2D and traditional sculpting?
I dont think its...
