Answers to Some of Your Most Pressing Questions
What is Web Hosting?
Web hosting allows businesses, organizations, and individuals to make their websites or apps visible on the internet. Whether they're using a dedicated server, or sharing resources, every website is hosted on a server. The only way for a website to be visible on the internet is if it's hosted by a web hosting service provider, also known as a web host. In order to find a website, you type the domain name (or URL) into your browser. Your computer will then connect to the server where the website is hosted, and the webpage is delivered onto your screen.
What Are the Different Types of Web Hosting Products DreamHost Offers?
DreamHost offers several different types of hosting plans that work for all website hosting needs.
Shared Hosting:
Shared hosting is the most affordable option, but it does have its limitations. Shared hosting customers share the server's resources with other customers. If another website on the same server is receiving large amounts of traffic, or using a lot of the server's limited resources, it's possible that your site may run slower as a result.
While DreamHost works hard to make sure all sites on a shared server never disrupt other sites, this is always a possibility due to the nature of the product. That's why we recommend that you look at our more powerful options if you're expecting to experience high traffic levels on your site.
What can I host on shared hosting?
Shared hosting is perfect for blogs, portfolios, personal/business sites, and database-driven sites.4167201874
WordPress Hosting (DreamPress)
DreamPress is DreamHost's managed WordPress hosting. It's a scalable service that allows users to manage their WordPress sites worry-free via automatic updates, caching, daily backups, and a content delivery network (CDN).801-935-8127
DreamHost's Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting is a premium solution that runs faster than our shared hosting. It's available as an add-on to an existing DreamHost plan, but also as a standalone service.
DreamHost's VPSs use Linux-VServer to create a "virtual machine" that protects a user's resources from others on the same physical machine. This allows for a more powerful solution.
Shared vs. VPS Hosting
On a shared server, resources are shared by other users. On a VPS, these resources are more isolated which improves performance and helps to maintain stability. You also have the ability to control how much RAM your server uses.
What can I host on a VPS?
A virtual private server is ideal for websites that require more resources than a shared server can provide, but may not need the full power of a dedicated server. VPS is ideal for businesses, ecommerce websites, designers, and developers that need unhindered performance.Learn more about VPS
A dedicated server is a server that only contains your files on it. You also get full root access: a major benefit if you're looking to customize your server to fit your specific needs. Please note that DreamHost support cannot assist if any errors occur as a result of a customization.
Another benefit of a dedicated server is that your MySQL server is on the same server, allowing for faster access. With all other hosting plans your MySQL database is on a separate database server.
What can I host on a Dedicated server?
Dedicated servers are fully-managed, business class servers. They are perfect for resource-heavy apps and giant websites.7753613138
DreamHost offers two different cloud hosting products.
Object Storage
DreamObjects is a cost-effective cloud storage service, which you can use to host static data for your websites, store backups, or develop the next big thing. You can access DreamObjects in your panel using the built-in interface, programmatically via standard APIs, or with a growing library of applications. DreamObjects is compatible with the Amazon S3 API.

- Web and mobile applications
- Digital media and e-commerce websites
- Big data
- Testing and development environments
All instances can be managed through the DreamCompute's dashboard built off of OpenStack's 6057968199.
How Do I Buy a Domain Name?
Buying a domain name with DreamHost is simple and comes with features that a lot of other hosts don't offer. Use our domain search tool to buy your desired domain name; we'll let you know if someone else has already purchased it, and will serve up alternative versions that are available.
After buying your domain name with DreamHost, you'll also receive:
- Free WHOIS Privacy Protection (which keeps your website registration details private)
- auto-renewals (so you don't have to worry about a lapse in ownership)
- unlimited subdomains (like blog.yoursite.com, or mexico.yoursite.com, for example)
- domain setting controls at your fingertips (like MX records, CNAME, etc.)
Try out our domains search tool and get online today.
How Do I Migrate Over to DreamHost?
If you want to move your web hosting to DreamHost, the first step is to create a DreamHost account â you can do that from any of our product pages (7063972429, VPS, Dedicated, DreamPress) During the signup process, select the option to add your current domain to your new account â don't worry, this does NOT affect your current live website!
Next, you'll need to backup your website files and upload them to DreamHost. You can learn more about this here.
Once you've migrated your website to DreamHost's servers, you'll need to check the site to confirm that it looks and functions just as intended. If everything looks great, you'll need to point your DNS to DreamHost so people know where to find you! If this sounds complicated, don't worry. We have some documentation here on how it's done.
Have some questions before you get started? No worries. (613) 375-6166 with us and we'll be happy to help.
Can You Help Me Understand More About WordPress?
Definitely. We have some awesome WordPress guides that can help answer most of your questions. If you get stuck, we are always here to help as well.
Does DreamHost Offer an âEmail Onlyâ Hosting Plan?
DreamHost does not offer an email only hosting plan. You must purchase a hosting plan that includes email service â Shared, VPS, DreamPress, or Dedicated. At this time DreamCompute only plans do not include email hosting.
Can I Talk to Support Even If I'm Not a Current Customer?
Of course! Visit our support page and select 'Sales'. Or, if you're on our site between 8-4 PM PST, you can chat with us from any of our product pages (416-375-6161, 7577704011, Dedicated, DreamPress).

BlackBerry® Theme Studio 6 is here, it's free and easier to use than ever before! It enables one of the great features of the BlackBerry platform – the ability to personalize your phone by creating and loading your very own custom themes.
BlackBerry Theme Studio is a suite of tools including Theme Builder, for creating themes, and BlackBerry® Composer, for creating animations and graphics to use in themes. With these tools, you can customize virtually everything in your theme, including backgrounds, sound effects and ringtones, icons, menus and fonts. You can even add animations and screen transitions.
BlackBerry Theme Studio has also empowered professional theme designers. Their creations are available on sites like the BlackBerry App World™ storefront. In fact, themes make up over 20% of the titles in BlackBerry App World, and themes are the second-largest category of titles. To learn more about using BlackBerry Theme Studio, check out these great Inside BlackBerry blog posts:
- BlackBerry Theme Studio – Build your own BlackBerry Theme!
- BlackBerry Theme Studio – Build your own BlackBerry Theme! (Part Two)
- BlackBerry Theme Studio Tips: Using Adobe Photoshop
Now, this new release of BlackBerry Theme Studio makes it even easier to create a custom theme. Some of the exciting features of the new Version 6 include:
- A new user interface for BlackBerry Theme Builder that lets you click on any item on the preview screen and directly edit its settings. This allows for faster editing and a shorter learning curve. Plus, you can select multiple items to change all at once.
- The Background Wizard makes it easy to add dynamic wallpapers to your theme. Options include date-based or time-based changes (to highlight a special holiday or change images by the time of day), and slideshow backgrounds (to cycle through your favorite photos).
- New productivity features allow you to batch update all of the graphics in a theme automatically. You can also change fonts across multiple phone screens automatically. Also, BlackBerry Theme Studio continues to be compatible with popular graphic design tools such as Adobe Photoshop® and Corel® Paint Shop Pro.
- For our professional theme designers, a new "export" option makes it simple to offer themes through BlackBerry App World. The "export" option is designed to package all of the selected files and settings into a single zip file, ready for upload to BlackBerry App World.
- Last but not least, the new version supports the latest BlackBerry smartphone devices and software, including the new BlackBerry® Torch™ 9800 and BlackBerry® Style™ 9670 handsets, as well as new BlackBerry® 6 UI elements like the graphic content menus.
Whether you want to personalize your own phone, create unique themes to share with friends, or join the ranks of commercial theme designers on BlackBerry App World, I encourage you to try this new release.

|Japanese artist marks her third solo show at The Shooting Gallery and we stopped off at the new Heist Gallery for a look see.
New Works By Yumiko Kayukawa
November 14th through December 5th, 2009
Shooting Gallery
Not entirely sure, but I think this may be her third solo show at the Shooting Gallery. Yumiko hails from Japan.
Born in the small town of Naie in Hokkaido, Japan, Kayukawas paintings are drawn from the beauty of her childhood surroundings and understanding of its native animals. Kayukawa reveals an intimate connection to her culture by referencing Shinto Mythology, Japanese characters and folklore.
Ran into Maxwell Loren Holyoke-Hirsch with his thumbs up after telling me about a New York illustration he was just commissioned for.
Raccoons are great
Crowds were mellow early in the evening.
Down Geary St was the grand opening of the small Gallery Heist featuring a sorted collection of Bay Area artists.
Ran into Kevin Taylor who had work in the show.
a narrow but longish space
The show was curated by 111 Minna's x-curator Gabe Scott
Kevin Taylor and family
Still recovering from sickness, we waddle our way home.

Today's Maurice Clarett update: The "troubled" — that is to say, "known for pretty much everything other than being a football player — posted a $50,000 bond to be released after his charges of aggravated robbery. We'll put aside for a moment how a guy with little discernible income over the last three years came up with 50 grand on the spot — maybe he was robbing people! — and instead look at Clarett's lawyer, William Settina.
One would think it would be difficult to gain too much notoriety as a defense attorney in Columbus, Ohio, but, then again, we are talking about Ohio State here. Oh, and guys who rob grocery stores wearing chicken suits. No, really. In 2004, Donald Haines robbed two Kroger stores wearing a chicken suit. What makes this story even stranger? Haines had previously worked as Kroger's mascot, Pepe the Penguin. And Settina represented him, saying, ""something snapped in Mr. Haines' head." (We'll guess it was a rubber band. Just one, though.)
After you've defended the chicken suit guy, Maurice Clarett, jeez, that's easy.

Public hearing opens for proposed Litchfield Stop & Shop
LITCHFIELD >> Stop & Shop's public hearing with the Planning and Zoning commission was officially opened at the monthly planning meeting Monday night. As of press time, the meeting was all but certain to be continued to the June 17 zoning meeting. The commission will not consider the application until the public hearing is closed.
Stop & Shop's proposed site plan calls for the demolition of three existing buildings and the construction of a 38,000-square-foot shopping center where Litchfield Market now stands. It would be built over that property, including the parking area behind the market.
The proposed plan also includes a 2,500-square-foot addition to a separate building in the plaza.
Having already been approved by the Inland/Wetlands board, this is the final hurdle for Stop & Shop. The new store would be roughly 12,000 square-feet larger than the current Litchfield Stop & Shop located on West Street.
The new supermarket would be located at the rear of the Village Green plaza, owned by real estate developer Mark Greenberg.
Representatives from Stop & Shop outlined their proposed site plan in detail using a Powerpoint presentation.
John Hession of EBI consulting, on behalf of Stop & Shop, outlined the proposed building location, circulation, on-site parking, storm water drainage, proposed landscaping, parking lot lighting, and erosion controls during construction.
Among the highlights was the elimination of one of the outlets in what Hession called a "confusing" five-way intersection that currently exists in Village Green.
Hession also said that two basins on site will be enhanced from a traditional detention basin. Evasive vegetation will be removed to significantly improve water quality. This was a stipulation posed by the Inland/Wetlands commission during Stop & Shop's previous application process with that board.
Hession also outlined a four-phase process for the demolition of the three buildings and the construction of the new Stop & Shop.
Patrick Dunford of VHB traffic engineering addressed traffic concerns on behalf of Stop & Shop. He said that they are expecting the good existing traffic conditions on Route 202 to continue with this new site plan. Dunford referred to the poor traffic conditions of the current Stop & Shop site, especially when a exiting the lot and taking a left turn.
Thomas Cody said that there is currently 65,000-square-feet of commercial space in the Village Green Plaza and that, at the conclusion of the project, there would be 61,000 square feet.
"Clearly there are significant vacancies in that 65,000 square-feet that you are talking about, and there always have been," planning and zoning chair Susan Lowenthal said.
According to Stop & Shop representatives that spoke at a recent Litchfield Area Business Associations meeting, the new store would include a new fish department, which is not available at the current store. A People's Bank will be added, if there is space, as well as an expanded meat department and an organic foods section.
Anthony Colavolpe, managing principal of the New Haven-based real estate advisory company Citron Group LLC said at that meeting that additions will "make the store function better overall."
Stop & Shop representatives called the adjacent Rite Aid lot "not a user-friendly environment" and will not pursue it as an alternative location.
Members of Protect Litchfield Action Network, also called PLAN Litchfield, have spoken out against this new Stop & Shop throughout the process. Michele Crow of PLAN mentioned during the LABA meeting how this shopping center will have an adverse effect on Litchfield's unique qualities and brand.
Big box stores like this one, Crow said, "remove the fabric that makes this town what it is" and said that the short term benefits of it are not worth it.

Tech Company Is Literally Throwing a Tech Bubble Theme Party
Not much to do with this one other than shake your head, wipe away a tear, and look into the distance, face blank. Sparkpr, which manages top tech accounts like Vevo, Rdio, and Dropcam, is having a 90s theme party, focused around one of the most disastrous aspects of the entire decade.
If this weren't a PR firm at work, you might think it were perhaps brilliantly self-aware—almost performance art. But it's not. It's just horribly out of touch marketing, akin to a realtor arranging a subprime BBQ. People will likely attend, gleefully. "Isn't this silly?"
It's that time of year again!
Sparkpr is hosting its Annual Media Party to celebrate another industrious year of technology in the Silicon Valley. This year, we're taking a nostalgic look back into the dotcom bubble.
Guests will revel in the cultural mecca that defined the Internet boom, while enjoying a wide variety of cocktails & nibbles and gettin' jiggy to their favorite 90s jams.
Coincidentally, Sparkpr turns 15 this year! So, save the date & let's party like it's 1998.
A nostalgic look at the dotcom bubble.
A nostalgic look at the dotcom bubble.
A nostalgic look at the dotcom bubble.
A nostalgic look at the dotcom bubble, in the very midst of a new bubble. OK. Get jiggy, drink some theme cocktails, close your eyes, and feel the MDMA head-rush of a collapsed economy. Those were the days.

Chicory (Cichorium intybus) has served humankind for millenia. The perennial herbacious plant has a striking appereance, with bright blue flowers that are closely attached to a less impressive stalk. The native Mediterranian plant was used by the Egyptians as an edible and medicinal herb and it is mentioned as such in Ancient Greek and Roman literature. Perphaps you haven't had a chance to try out the pleasant bitterness of young chicory leaves, but you have quite likely eaten radicchio or Belgian endive. And, in fact, they are nearly the same thing! Chicory is the wild progenitor of radicchio and endive.
The wild plant has had a wide variety of medicinal uses, but its strong toxicity to internal parasites has been duly noted throughout the ages. Today, chicory is an important dietary supplement that keeps many farm animals healthy around the world.
In the Middle Ages, chicory was belived to have atropaic properties and was much esteemed for its ability to ward of evil spells or bad luck. Unusual precautions were taken when gathering chicory – rituals that for the modern reader verge on the bizarre. The plant's ability to thrive along roadsides came to symbolize Christian perseverance and as such is featured in many medieval paintings. For more on art history and chicory, see this article from the Journal of Experimental Botany.
During Napoleonic times, chicory was used as a coffee substitute due to the British naval blockade and the resulting shortage of coffee beans. The dried chicory roots were roasted, then ground, and mixed with coffee. At the same time, the British blockade cut off the French supply of cane sugar, hence forcing the French to invent a process to extract sugar from beets on an industrial scale. In this sense we might describe the French as the founders of the local food movement – though it was hardly by choice!
Turning our focus back to more local histories, chicory also made an appearance during a more recent coffee crisis of the 1970s. Under East Germany's socialist government, the coffee break during regular work hours was considered something of an institution. When in 1976 the price of coffee quadrupled almost overnight, the state was not able to meet the large demand for coffee. The solution was a new brand of coffee, the infamous "Kaffee-Mix". Chicory and a blend of rye and sugar beets were mixed in with coffee. The mix was not as successful as expected and it led to widespead complaints, thus quickly politicizing the issue. Coffeewise, things returned to normal in 1979 when world prices for the commodity decreased.
The specimens of chicory that we identified can be found along the Mauerpark and along several parts of the Mauerweg, but is by no means isolated to this area. Chicory is widespead throughout Berlin.

Richard Proulx
Composer, conductor, musician, educator, music editor
A St. Paul native, composer Richard Proulx was born in 1937. His professional career began in the early to mid-1960s and spanned over fifty years. He is known internationally for his compositions, and his works, such as A Community Mass, have become staples in the liturgical repertoire. Composing for a variety instruments, styles, denominations, and communities, Proulx showed exceptional versatility.
Proulx's connection with St. John's University was strong. Proulx studied music at the university as a young boy, and later taught hymnody and composition in summer sessions. He was the recipient of St.John's prestigious Pax Christi award, given to those who have devoted themselves to God by working in the tradition of Benedictine monasticism to serve others and to build a heritage of faith in the world.
Following his death in 2010, St. John's Alcuin Library became the proud home of The Richard Proulx Collection. The collection consists of hundreds of original manuscripts, published works, correspondence, and Proulx's substantial reference collection. St. John's University is grateful for the generous donation made by the Proulx family and is committed to the preservation of Proulx's legacy and work.

Should Have Taken That Left Turn at Albuquerque...
I admit it, we've been seriously slacking on posting the latest Looney Tunes news flashes here lately... examples: the 3D Roadrunner cartoons, the new Cartoon Network series, the CGI Bugs Bunny movie, and the new Looney Tunes Super Stars DVDs with cartoons in glorious faux-widescreen format. How about the CGI Speedy Gonzales movie starring the voice of George Lopez? No, it was this recent news item that I found too bizarre to pass up posting about: You can now have Bugs Bunny direct you through unfamiliar roads.
Warner Brothers and TomTom have released Looney Tunes voices you can download to your TomTom GPS devices. Bugs and Yosemite Sam are available now... complete with stock Carl Stalling music cues. Daffy, Sylvester, and Pepe Le Pew are coming soon. Click the above link to listen to some samples.

Well crap, now I gotta get a TomTom
- September 25, 2010 at 6:09 PM
Question: If we happen to miss a turn (or if the satellite can't get the information), will there be an endless string of hearing Bugs saying, "Recalculating"? (we have a Garmin and have often wanted to smash the thing after hearing it repeat "Recalculating" about 3 or 4 times in a row).

So take a look, if you care for such things. The cover is posted, too, and it's super-lovely. Just a few more weeks to go--I'm hoping to have the book in time for my birthday!

I have purchased my copy! But... I will admit to not exactly knowing what it is I bought. Ahem... I thought chapbooks were poetry books. It seems like it is a book, but then the promo stuff implies it is not an official book. Wikipedia is useless. Help!

I have purchased my copy too! Now tell Ferd what we bought. (It IS a beautiful cover. Maybe I will frame it and not read it. No, that is impossible.)

Ah, you guys are the best! Thanks for the kind comments (I'll pass'em on to the wonderous FHP publisher, Caryl, who made the cover).
A chapbook is, in simplest terms, a small book. I don't know if there's an exact size definition, but likely well under 100 pages. That's why poets so commonly publish them--a shocking amount of meaning can package up quite small in poetic form. But fictioneers do'em too--novellas and, in my case, mini-story-collections (just 2 stories).
Because they are so little, chapbooks are hard to market and sell. You never see these at Indigo, for example. Often--in Canada at least--chapbook publishers go for quality rather than quantity, printing a very small run of chapbooks but making each object a real thing of beauty. That's, in my opinion, the case with Frog Hollow. There won't be all that many copies of *Road Trips* printed, but they're gonna be lovely. There's even a couple internal illustrations that I am rather in love with.
I really hope you guys like the stories, but as a *thing*, I know you'll like the books.

Dog Lover Miranda Lambert Adds New Stray to Her Pack
Not long ago, Miranda Lambert assured fans that she and hubby Blake Shelton aren't planning to have any babies in the near future. This week, the reason why becomes apparent: The 'Over You' singer just can't stop welcoming furry friends into the couples' home long enough to focus on anything else.
The most recent addition to Lambert and Shelton's family is an adorable black and white mutt that was found wandering on the side of the road.
The singer shared the news with her fans via Twitter, and judging by the country gal's tweets, she already came up with a nickname for the lost pup. "And I Found this on the side of the road this morning," she shared, adding, "Dah-na-na-na-na-na-na-na Batman! (The theme song )."
The latest stray is one of many dogs that has been lucky enough to live in the Shelton/Lambert household, at least for a little while. When asked via Twitter whether or not Batman has found a new home under her roof, Lambert replied, "it's being discussed" with a smiley face at the end — a sure sign that she's on her way to convincing Mr. Shelton.
Unfortunately, two of the couples' dogs left them this year, as a big brown dog named Virginia went missing, and Lambert's long-time pet, Dixie, passed away at age 20. Perhaps the new addition will help heal the hurt from pets past.
Of course, dogs aren't the only soft spot in this songstress' heart — she likes all things furry. Late last year, she took in a stray kitten and treated it like royalty, buying Fancy Feast for the white kitty's Saturday night meal.
Although plenty of her Twitter followers have offered to take in this adorable black and white dog, it sounds like Lambert needs a new pup to love. We're happy that this sweet stray found the perfect home — for now, anyway.

Level of Education and Health Status of the Different Social Groups: Case Study Macedonia

The educational level is an important indicator within the socioeconomical status for health evaluation and a powerful instrument in promotion of population's health. In 2000 a study conducted in R. Macedonia, in 15 municipalities with different gross national product per capita, encompassing 1129 examinees older than 18 years. The results of the conducted research showed statistically significant association of the educational level with the morbidity. Higher morbidity emerges in persons that are illiterate (78,57%) and in those who have completed only 1-3 elementary school grades (77,08%). There is also an interaction between the mortality and the educational level. Persons with lower educational level have higher mortality rate. What kind of interaction is there between the educational level and the positive health? People with lower educational level are more susceptible to diseases; they are less informed which leads to a poor health. Morbidity and mortality rates are lower in people with higher educational level, who also have high level of self-informing that augments their health awareness and culture, leading towards positive health. According to many research studies, the mechanisms that link education to positive health are the employment and self-satisfaction with the job, healthy lifestyle, psycho-social resources etc. There is a mutual negative effect between poverty and lack of education that provides skills and information needed for managing the stress situations life brings with itself. Education, employment and incomes increase the capacity of self-control, and that condition strengthen the health in relation to the environment The social support, which is most frequent in persons with higher educational level, promotes health and decreases mortality through physiological mechanisms of the environment. People with higher educational level most likely will look for preventive health care (yearly check-ups for health control, immunization and other preventive examinations) and will probably not abuse alcohol and drugs. Preparation of various programs for applying the health education will contribute in the process of directing the individual to correct behavior that leads towards positive health, opposite the hostile influences of the social environment, which leads to bad quality in health (based on the education).

I would like to congratulate Boston College head coach Jerry York who won his 925 game last night, that's no small feat. York has been coaching since the 1972-73 season, when he was the head coach of the Clarkson Knight's.
Over a span of 40+ years and 1579 games York has compiled an impressive record of (925-559-95).
York won his first NCAA title 12 years after he became a head coach in 1983-84, when he was the head coach of the Bowling Green Falcons.
Over the years, York's teams have compiled an impressive record 37 wins in the NCAA tournament. In his 19 years with the Eagle, York has won the Hockey East tournament nine times. York's Eagles have also won five Beanpot titles – including the last three in a row.
Here is the link to the video of post-game press conference after his 925 win.
Prediction: tonight, I predict that York's will get 926 against the Minnesota Gophers.

Stopped by Tim's to taste a couple blind bottles.
- 1998 Nurihannam Wines (Nuriootpa High School) Shiraz Class - Australia, South Australia, Barossa, Barossa Valley
Tasted blind. Lots of dark fruit...blueberries, blackberries and cherry. Had a nice spicy element to the palate that I thought placed it in the Southern Rhone. The tannin, and alcohol were still significant (for me). (76 pts.)
- 2011 Domaine de la Pépière (Marc Ollivier) Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine Sur Lie Vieilles Vignes Clos des Briords - France, Loire Valley, Pays Nantais, Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine
Great wine. Fresh citrus tones meld seamlessly with seashells and salty notes. Always a winner. (91 pts.)
- 2002 Olga Raffault Chinon Les Picasses - France, Loire Valley, Touraine, Chinon
Lots of tilled soil, mushroom, green pepper and red fruits on the nose. The palate was cool, energetic and silky. Great red fruit, nice earthy notes with lots of crushed stones. Great stuff as usual. (92 pts.)
- 2011 Domaine des Lambrays La Rose Du Clos Rosé - France, Burgundy
One of the finer roses I've had. Nose of rose petals, some truffle, and cool strawberry fruit. The palate was really nice. Sleek, refined and elegant...this rivals Tempier and Baudry for the finest Rose from France. (92 pts.)

Lauren Alaina to Return to 'American Idol' This Season
Lauren Alaina will once again hit the 'American Idol' stage where her dreams of country stardom first came into focus. Alaina is joining other past 'Idol' contestants-turned-celebrities who will perform on an upcoming episode in Season 11. Others taking the iconic stage soon are Chris Daughtry, Adam Lambert and James Durbin.
Daughtry, who became famous as a result of his success on Season 5, will actually use his performance time on the March 15 show to debut the new single 'Outta My Head' from his record 'Break the Spell.' For her part, though we don't yet know which on episode Alaina will appear, the 'Georgia Peaches' singer is hoping to just stay relevant, and has been touring as a part of Jason Aldean's My Kinda Party Tour.
"I'm just trying to get my name out there a little bit more and be able to perform as much as I can," she told Taste of Country before heading out on the road for the big tour.
The emerging country starlet recently filmed an episode of 'Day Jobs,' a show on Great American Country that shows how stars made a living before music paid the bills. Alaina returned to her high school job at Cici's Pizza in Fort Oglethorpe, Ga., where she showed viewers how she used to serve pizza after school. Watch for Alaina's 'Idol' appearance this season and her 'Day Jobs' appearance sometime between April and May.

Would you mind trying this command line method to add a session, to see if it does the same thing as adding a session with Nero?

Nothing in mind really, just asking. The answer might help figure out what's going on. If adding a session with command-line works like adding it with Nero, that's at least a good thing to know.

Post subject: Multisession Problems
Subject description: I've got lots of multisession problems too...
I've been reading with interest this thread about multisession problems that some of been having.
I've been having some mutlisession issues with a variety of "faces" (I mean that there's not just one problem, but a variety of problems) which I've posted over
, with multisession stuff being especially emphasized in my second post (however, some of the other things are also related, like the need for a multisession reboot failsafe which I speak about in my first post that doesn't exist in Puppy).
I have 3 computers on which I've been having multisessoin problems, BUT I also have similar problems with remasters (either not writing anything on the disk at all or with having the disk be bootable after the write). I can't help but begin to wonder if there's a relationship between some of the multisession problems and some of the remastering problems.
I think multisessions is one of the neatest features of Puppy, but remastering also has some really neat features too, like taking the installation of almost 400 MB of Firefox and OpenOffice with slightly less than 100 MB of Puppy bootup stuff (which is about 500 MB added together) and putting all that onto a 212 MB remastered CD! -- wow, that's REALLY cool!. Remasters work very seldom for me, but when it does, it's VERY rewarding, as everything's there (Puppy works, Firefox works, and all components of OpenOffice work too) -- and there's about 500 MB left on the remastered CD for future multisessions (otherwise, it ends up being less than 200 MB on the original multisession disk, and less if you've installed other stuff). Remastering also combines the results of ALL multisessions into a single new session (which is supposed to be like what happens when our multisession disks fill up and we're asked to put in a new CD, but this doesn't work for me well either! -- the disk drawer closes and IMMEDIATELY opens up with nothing written to it!). While remastering is not the issue in this current thread, I wonder if some of these remastering problems are interwoven with or similar to writing usable multisession disks (because I have BOTH of these problems and they have some common features).
Hoping to get some helpful attention to our combined interests, I give you what I've posted
PS: Thanks Flash! I just checked my link above and I see you found my other post on your own. Fantastic! See you there...

Subject description: Flash, this is not it, is it?
Flash, I'm looking for your reply to me that you mentioned. I don't see that you've responded here, since this is not the HowTo section that you referred to in
thread. Or is it?

Ok best laid plans of mice and men went astray
While remastering is not the issue in this current thread, I wonder if some of these remastering problems are interwoven with or similar to writing usable multisession disks
hmm...this occured to me also.
The only test I did was with an old copy of 1.09 which behaved perfectly on the same machine so was unable to try the hack.
The disk with which I have noticed the not saving problem was remasterd by hacking the pup_xxx.sfs file to bring the size down so obviously I couldn't test the original(2.2 regression).....no changes in etc or root though...further versions were remastered using the built in script...burned at 4x with nero 6.6 gave reliable results for booting and running.
So apologies for the delay but the subject is not forgotten...I haven't even been near the forum since my last post...lost presumed drunk

Would you mind trying this command line method to add a session, to see if it does the same thing as adding a session with Nero?
Ok finally some results.
I am using a multisession cd not dvd....so I attempted to use the cd parameters for growiosfs...no sucess as the disk is not recognised as writable...ie cdrecord fails to find a sector to write to.
Now this is definately a hardware issue as I tried various puppys...version 1 and 2 and writing the first save worked every time on another machine with a GCE-8160 drive and failed every time on the machine with the Aopen drive.
Now I was never convinced about the quality of the aopen drive as it was inconsistant burning certain formats using nero ,they do not make cd drives any more I believe(!!) and I read bad reports on the web so it would appear if anyone is using a drive with the same innards for example will probably have the same problem.
The dummy track workaround has to be done on a different machine either by burner software or command line as the drive itself seems to decide that the disk is not multisession.
Incidentally results where the same for both cdr and cdrw, and ejecting and reinserting the cd made no difference.
Conclusion...be choosy about hardware

Post subject: NEC 3550A does not work
I tried the multisession CD and DVD on several computers. I notice that while the disc seems to work for a lot of the comptuers, it did not work with the Nec 3550A. Not sure why.

With a CD the system worked but would at times not seem to pull THE latest session but the one previous. Intermittent problem.

With the DVD session support is flawless. Response time is good.

Multisession works great on all...
Compaq Evo n610c, P4 768mb ram ati radeon 7500 video, Sony dvd-rom/cdrw. All multisession cd`s work fine..
Really, every multisession cd Ive ever done works great on every machine the live cd ran on..In fact Ive found that it is the easiest way to save sessions for me.
@ Note that I ONLY use BurnISO2cd in Puppy to burn multisession cd`s, although I will use BurnCDCC in windows to burn live cd`s, and have later multisessioned them as well, with varied success. But when burned with burniso2cd they always work fine..
@ Will be trying Dingo next, will post results...

Before the Interbike Mobile Social on Thrusday, I stopped by the Tern Bicycles booth to down a couple of colas. I had learned my lesson from Interbike two years ago: in a desert environment, drinking hard liquor because I'm thirsty is a terrible idea. I call the photo above "Two cups, one guy"
Later that night Byron and I found ourselves at the sinks of the bar's restroom, our wide-eyed reflections greeting us in the mirror. Byron quietly says, "Dude, I think this might be the best MoSo ever, " and I respond, "How could it not be?"
I have often said that I hate Las Vegas, but I need to refine that statement: I don't like Vegas, but the people of that city are simply awesome. Every local the MoSo ride came in contact with was just outstanding. Drivers waived at us, the bouncers were great dudes (Big D is the man!)…..even the hookers on the strip cheered us on. The energy of the night was just so good. And just about every colour of weird was represented…grown men on Big Wheels, miniature dogs with Go-cameras, electric-boosted tricycles drag-racing the group….though I didn't see any Elvis impersonators, to be honest.
Thanks to so many people who made our night, especially the whole Tern crew, the Beat Coffee House, Interbike, Nuun, Green Guru, New Belgian Brewery (well done!), and all the bike people who came out to party with us.

Vblade - ATA over Ethernet
ATA over Ethernet (AoE)[1] is a network protocol developed by the Brantley Coile Company (now Coraid)[2], designed for accessing ATA storage devices over Ethernet networks. It gives the possibility to build SANs with low-cost, standard technologies.
|iSCSI protocol stack
|Data sync
|AoE protocol stack
|AoE vs. iSCSI[3]
- AoE avoids the usual high-level TCP/IP or UDP protocols; it's a base-level protocol itself. (For the technically-minded, it is an OSI level 3 protocol.) This gives the advantage of higher speed transfers, as the protocol doesn't have to build upon existing structures. In comparison, iSCSI runs over TCP/IP.[4]
- It apparently uses less CPU time than the similar iSCSI protocol. For the technically minded, the AoE specification[5] [6] is 8 pages compared with iSCSI's[7] 257 pages.
- AoE is not routable over LANs and is intended for SANs only, which can provide greatly increased security.
- Each partition on the server computer can only be used by one client at a time; AoE is not intended to be a replacement for NFS or similar protocols which run on top of filesystems. It is designed to work at a much lower level.
- As the protocol is non-routable, the servers cannot be separated by routers.
- ATA Over Ethernet is therefore useful for creating cheap SANs, but it is not intended for the average user. It is very definitely not useful for sharing files easily: NFS or Samba is much better for this.
The Linkstation is used as a server running vblade. A separate computer is a client running aoetools. This version of vblade runs in userspace, however there are versions that run in kernelspace.[8] [9]
Server (vblade)
Use the Advanced Packaging Tool to install the vblade componant of AoE[10]. You will need to have the unstable branch added.
- Get access to packages from the Debian unstable branch
- use apt-get to install vblade:
apt-get install vblade
usage: vblade <shelf> <slot> <ethn> <device>
The first number (1) is the shelf number, the second (2) the slot number, change these numbers to your liking. The eth0 part tells vblade what interface to use, it will only be available to that interface on that direct connection. It can't go through routers and it can't be redirected. The last argument is the device name to share, this could be /dev/sda1 or some other device.
vblade 1 2 eth0 /dev/sda1
Or instead to have it run on startup and stay up since Vblade may not take well to being forked. Adding it to /etc/inittab as a command that would respawn itself should "daemonize" vblade[11]. If someone has a better solution please put it in here, it may be possible to add it to init.d
echo "e1:2:respawn:/usr/sbin/vblade 1 2 eth1 /dev/sda1" >> /etc/inittab init q
Client (aoetools)
The following Operating systems provide ATA over Ethernet support:
- Rocket Division Software has added AoE support for Windows.[12]
- 2ºFrost Software offers AoE support for Mac OS X [13]
- Coraid provides device drivers for FreeBSD and Linux. Support is currently being beta tested for the Solaris Operating Environment. [14]
- The Gentoo Linux Wiki has a AoE Howto[15]
- In Debian using the Unstable or Testing branch the aoetools[16] package [17] can be installed using the Advanced Packaging Tool.
sudo apt-get aoetools mkdir mountpoint modprobe aoe
check to see that your vblade device is available to mount
you should see output like this:
e1.2 20.003GB eth0 up
Mount this device on your client
mount -t vfat /dev/etherd/e1.2 mountpoint/
and try it out, hopefully it works.

Listen now, as they discuss why NuManna is the #1 company that you and your family should turn to when it comes to food preparedness quality and taste.
Client Testimonials
"I have tried several different brands of storable foods and NuManna has been the best. The food looks like actual food. Although it was difficult to pick a favorite as all are delicious...makes my mouth salivate just typing about it! Thank you NuManna for making incredible food!"
— Jayme, Texas
"I really appreciate the high quality non GMO products you carry and I especially like the packaging. Very professional to say the least. I really like spicy chili and your habanero chili is the best, in my opinion. Thanks for the custom order.
You make it so that having an emergency supply doesn't have to feel like I'm "roughing it" so thanks for that! I've had to reorder since I sometimes enjoy Numanna even in the good times..."
— James, San Antonio, Lone Star State
"I have tried all kinds of food storage...this is the best tasting food of any I've tried."
— Gayle, Springville, UT
"I was very surprised after eating NuManna. First it tastes great. Second, most storable foods give me a bit of an uneasy feeling after eating them. I have food sensitivities. I did not experience any of the typical stomach problems for eating a dehydrated food product. NuManna is the best I have ever had."
— Tim C., California
"This stuff is awesome. My wife has been away for a while so I ate NuManna while she was gone. It was simple and everything I had was really good. I wish NuManna was around when I bought a bunch of bulk food in the past from the Mormons. I don't want to have all these ingredients and put them together. NuManna was simple and great tasting. I gave away all my other bulk food."
— Reagan B., Mexico
"I host a national radio show and I have been around this industry for a long time and seen just about everything that is out there. I have never tasted storable food as good as NuManna and I'll put my name on that. My wife and I took some of the Pasta Primavera to a church function and people couldn't believe this was storable food. It was so creamy. The Habanero chili could win a cook-off it's that good. NuManna is the brand we recommend because it is the best we have ever tasted and the People behind the company are first rate."
— Pastor Butch, West Virginia
"I've been in search of a storable food product that would help you and your family. I've tested a number of products and I've researched a number of companies and I actually have finally come up with a company and a product line that I believe that you need to utilize to help protect yourself and your family. The name of the company is NuManna."
— Dr. Dave Janda
"I received the sampler pack last week and was pleasantly surprised at how good the food is. The portion size was perfect for both my husband and I to try. His comment was, 'this is actually really good tasting'. Also, the fact that this is non-gmo food is a major plus! We will definitely be ordering from you again. Thank you so much for a great product, and offering the sample packs to try."
— Sherrie S.
"I have done a lot of research over the past 5 to 6 months. I keep coming back to your brand and business model time after time when comparing to other survival foods. I look forward to receiving your products soon. Cheers."
— David W.
"I believe that this is one of the best investments that you can make for your family to be prepared for what ever the future might hold. Remember… you can't eat gold, but you can eat NuManna Food Storage during a time of crisis."
— Joyce Riley host of The Power Hour

Cult hero Demichelis
It's not been a quiet first season in Manchester for Martin Demichelis. He's been injured, vilified, out-paced, clumsy, positionally unaware, error-prone, solid, dependable and brave all rolled into one. That's also not forgetting a couple of beautiful tap-ins and a cracking ponytail hairstyle. We'll come to that later on.
Fans were willing to give him a chance upon his arrival at the club. He was a back-up option to both Joleon Lescott and Matija Nastasic as to who would partner Vincent Kompany in the back four but following an injury crisis, he was required to step in and prove himself.
So how did the Argentine introduce himself to the fans? He made himself unavailable by suffering an injury in his first training session, meaning his arrival seemed completely pointless. Not to Manuel Pellegrini, though. No, the manager knew what he was getting.
- Mooney: Key year for Nastastic
- Jolly: Two deals almost done
By the time Demichelis had worked his way into the team, there were, let's say, more than a few doubts about his ability. He seemed to dive into challenges too easily and his first touch put some clearances to shame.
Pundit Alan Hansen laid into the number 26 in a Match of the Day broadcast back in December after City had won 4-2 at Fulham but hadn't looked defensively solid. For the most part, though, the fans dug their heels in and backed their man even if the Liverpool legend's points about Demichelis diving in high up the pitch held some merit.
However over the course of the next few months, the supporters moved closer to Hansen's thinking until it culminated in two penalty concessions in two cup games, both of which did little for City's chances of progressing past Barcelona or Wigan in the Champions League and FA Cup respectively.
And it was at this point in Demichelis' City career the majority of the fans gave up on him. He'd been in the team as a regular for almost every game since his initial injury and there was little sign of improvement -- and to many, the fact the manager kept picking him ahead of other options was beginning to grate. Pellegrini clearly saw something the fans in the stands didn't.
So just when it seemed there was no way back, Demichelis turned in a fine display during a critical 2-0 win at Hull City. After being reduced to 10 men early on, City rallied and the three points went a long way in winning the title.
Kompany had taken on the clumsy mantle and introduced his hand to Nikica Jelavic's shirt when he was clean through on goal after barely 10 minutes.
The visiting fans feared the worst when the defensive pairing was Javi Garcia and Demichelis but they need not have worried. With the Argentine's leadership, the Blues executed a perfect offside trap and closed out the game with relative ease. It was scary how precise the alignment of the back four was -- even when the home side's strikers knew what was going to happen, it was so well worked they were caught beyond the penultimate man.
That victory provided the springboard for City to pick themselves up, dust themselves down and deal with elimination from the FA Cup and Champions League. And it was all thanks to an Argentine defender.
By the final game of the season, Demichelis had secured his cult hero status. Partly due to his sudden transformation into a man who had settled into the team but mainly due to his one-man mission to bring the ponytail back into fashion. It was all set in stone the moment he ran the length of the South Stand with the Premier League trophy aloft, cheered on by the thousands of fans behind the goal.
He was at the height of popularity among the supporters, who had created at least two chants about him that involved some sort of appreciation of his hairstyle.
Not one to shirk a challenge, the defender is likely going to have to win all of those Blues over once again because in preparation for the World Cup, the Argentina international went and chopped it off.
Let's just hope it's no Sampson and Delilah story.

#61403 - UNIVERSAL DRIVE SHAFT SET(Ver.2/BLACK/2pcs)
This is the Version 2 universal driveshaft set with aluminium driveshafts for the Cyclone series of cars. It will fit the Cyclone, Cyclone S, Hara Edition Cyclone, Surikarn Edition Cyclone and World Champion Edition Cyclone. The aluminium Version 2 driveshafts have a thicker driveshaft and larger diameter balls than the Version 1 driveshafts. These changes improve durability and drivetrain efficiency, meaning less rebuilds and parts costs for racers! To accomodate the larger end balls, the inner diameter of the outdrives have been made larger as well.
To help differentiate the Version 2 driveshafts an identifying groove has been machined into the centre of the driveshafts.A groove is also machined in the Version 2 outdrives for the POM diff outdrives (#), one-way outdrives (#61397), and the ends of the spool outdrives (#61334, blue; #61335, purple; and #82806). Version 1 (non-grooved) driveshafts will fit Version 1 and Version 2 outdrives, however there will be extra play between the ends of the driveshafts and the inner diameter of the outdrives, so care must be taken to watch wear at these points. This universal shaft set will not fit the Version 1 solid axle set (spool) #61405 or the Version 1 one-way outdrives (#HB70713). Spare driveshafts for this set include: #61396 Aluminium Driveshaft #61398 44mm HD Steel Driveshafts (Front) #61338 Aluminium Driveshaft (Purple) #61378 Aluminium Driveshaft (Blue) #61088 MIP Purple Driveshaft

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?
The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

Orson Scott Card's "Ender in Exile" (in graphic format)
The sequel to "Ender's Game" and one year after.
As a followup, a film version of "Ender's Game" is coming to theaters in November of next year.
Laurell K. Hamilton's "Circus of the Damned" (in graphic format)
The 1st 3 volumes.
v.1. The charmer -- v.2. The ingenue -- v.3. The scoundrel.
Ray Bradbury's "Something Wicked This Way Comes" (in graphic format)
One of the times the film version is better than the book, and I have read the book. For a couple of reason.
1.) I have always found horror better presented visually than verbally. And . . .
2.) Whereas the book is presented in the present, the film is presented in the past, and the story just seems to work better in the past than the present.
Ray Bradbury's "The Martian Chronicles" (in graphic format)
While there never seems to have been a film version of the story, there was a TV miniseries version of the story, which was on TV a number of years ago, and which I remember as being a fairly faithful adaptation of the book. At least, the first parts of the book.
What I think most interesting about the book is that the present is interpreted as being from 1946 to 1958, while the future is interpreted as being from 1999 to 2026. Some of which is already our past.
Next time: More miscellaneous

Miscellaneous mysteries.
Graham Moore's "Sherlockian"
Nothing particularly original, but what is unoriginal is pretty prime.
A present problem can only be solved by resolving a problem in the past.
Past: When Sir Arthur Conan Doyle died, he left a multi-volume diary to posterity. Unfortunately, the diary is not complete, as there are several volumes missing. This tells what happened to one of those volumes.
Present: Who took it. When it was taken. Why it was taken. Where it was hidden. And what happened to it after it was rediscovered is quite logical.
Doyle as detective. Bram Stoker in a work of fiction. These always work, as does the writer's description of the pain of violence, and the emotional sense of betrayal one feels, when one is betrayed by someone one thinks one can trust. The writing also comes across as being remarkablely self-assured for a writer who has only written one previous novel.
What does not work is the villain the past, who comes across as being gay. (And we really, really must talk about gays in mysteries sometime in the future.) That is not why it does not work. It does not work, because we never really get to know the villain, so he never really comes across as being credible.
Next time: more miscellaneous mysteries, but first Ebert's lates, but far from greatest.

Roger Ebert's "A Horrible Experience of Unbearable Length: More Movies that Suck."
Ebert's latest, but far from greatest.
A couple of things that are good. A couple more that are ugly (i.e. neither bad nor good), but mostly just bad. So, we'll start with the bad.
Total films = 211
Films seen = 12 or 6%
Films liked = 10 or 83%
A sequel to "Your Movie Sucks," which I have not read, but I did read the one previous to that "I Hated, Hated This Movie."
Total films = 247
Films seen = 51 or 21%
Films liked = 33 or 65%
I. His ability to differentate between what sucks and what does not suck is in decline.
On the other hand . . . On the other hand . . .
"Ebert's the Great Movies"
Total films = 100
Films seen = 40 or 40%
Films liked = 25 or 62.5%
II. Roger, the films that you dislike are not the ones that suck. The films that suck are the ones you like.
Except for his ex-partner, the late Gene Siskel, which is understandable, he does not think much of his fellow film critics.
III. They are idiots, at least some of them, and their opinions, at least some of them, are idiotic, too.
IV. And, oh yes. Fanboys are idiots, as well.
Some time ago, there was an exercise on the world wide web, maybe more than one, as to which film generas Ebert should go nowhere near. At least near enough to write a review. I don't know whether there was any concensus, but I wonder it it wasn't action films. He likes the action film "The Mummy: the Tomb of the Dragon Emperor." It is watchable. I have seen it, but it is not a good film, but more importantly there are no good action scenes in it. On the other hand, there are four films listed in his latest book, that have some of the best action scenes I have seen. All, of which, he, of course, dislikes.
V. He does not know action as well as he thinks he does.
As he rightly points out, there is nothing worst than a comedy that thinks it is funny, but is not. He should have taken that to heart.
VI. He is not as funny as he thinks he is.
He decries the lack of realism in a film, but when a film tries to be a bit more realistic, he decries the lack of unrealism in the film.
VII. He contradicts himself.
He thinks Abilene is the prettiest town he has ever seen. He must not get out much. I have been to Abilene. It is not the prettiest town in the U.S. It is not even the prettiest town in Texas.
VIII. He shows his ignorance, when he talks about something besides films.
Okay. What is ugly?
IX. He talks about himself constantly. Normally, that is bad, as ht detracts from your subject, but as I do it, too. I can't critize him too much.
X. His reviews are at most two pages. Good if you want a quck read. Bad, if you want some fine detail about a film.
And what is good?
XI. He is a braver man that I am. Some of his reviews are hard enough to read, but he not only had to write the review. He had to see the film.
XII. He is knowledgable about films.
Next time: More miscellaneous mysteries.

Ironic, considering those two genuinely hated each other when Gene was alive, and his replacement co-critics were constantly kissing Roger's butt (at least in the episodes I saw).
I hadn't really thought about it, but you're right, Ebert's not a good judge of action. Fair enough if that's just not your thing, and I realize most critics believe themselves to be "above" the genre in general, but when you watch as many movies as he does, you should be able to at least objectively tell the difference between action that's well-presented and what isn't. (I mean, he didn't even like DIE HARD! Siskel at least liked DIE HARD!)
Ebert always struck me as taking a little too much, unwarranted pride in his own intellect. But his reviews are often entertaining, I'll give him that.
As for my reading, I just started Cormac McCarthy's OUTER DARK. Because I'm a masochist.

More miscellaneous mysteries.
Anne Perry's "Treason at Lissengrove"
The 27th in the Charlotte and Thomas Pitt series
While it stands alone and can be read before reading the others, this might not be a good start to the series. Not because the hero has just left the London police for the governmental agency that would morph into M.I.5/M.I.6 or protecting the U.K. from terrorists home and abroad, but because the motivations are rather murky and the villains' final plot is rather far fetched. And while it is readable, alot of it is internal monologues, which are more difficult to read.
C. J. Sansom's "Heartstone"
The 5th in the Matthew Shardlake Tudor mystery series
Positives . . .
A good write
Negatives . . .
Inconsistent characters
And I seldom have seen such angry characters in a novel, which hardly makes for the most pleasant read.
And the profanity in the book just grates on the ears.
Charles Todd's "A Bitter Truth"
The 3rd in the Bess Crawford mystery series
I have also read the 4th in the series, which we'll get to later, so we'll just talk about the authors now. Charles Todd is actually a pseudonym for a two person writing team, and to make it more unusual, it is a mother-son duo. Certainly, he/she/they have had someone close to them in the army, but one wonders if one of them or both were once a nurse. They have that part so nailed down. Of course, not from WWI, as everyone from then is dead, but from one of the later wars.
Ellen Crosby's "The Sauvignon Secret: a Wine Country Mystery"
The 6th in the series All Wines
There is at least one later one in the series, which I have not read. The series is easy enough to recognize. There is a different wine in each of the titles, and each mystery deals in some small part with winemaking.
Next time: Okay, everyone. We can all go home now. Everything on the subject has already been written.

down on the ground, spat at it, kicked it and called it terrible names. Not liking to see any book abused, I picked it up and put it on my "READ SOON" shelf. Heard mixed things about it. We'll see...

Okay, everyone. We can all go home now. Everything on the subject has already been written.
Amanda Foreman's "A World on Fire : Britain's Crucial Role in the American Civil War.'
What apparently started out as a diplomatic history of the U.K. and U.S. during the War, apparently morphed into something more like a economic, literary, military, political, religious, and social history of the U.K. and the U.S. during the War.
And quite an achievement on the authoress' part, as this is only the 2nd book she has ever written.
Eminently readable, because of the illustrations, maps, and her eye for the humorous situation.
It also gives credence to the belief, "That the more things change. The more they stay the same."
If the press does not lie, then neither does it tell the complete truth.
Some politicans are still self-serving. Saying something in public and doing the total opposite in private.
Moderation is still held in low regard.
And compromise is still held as being an act of cowardice, instead of an act of courage.
Of course, some things do change.
It is no longer the amateur hour at the state department, as the U.S. now does have a professional diplomatic corp.
Civil service has weeded out some of the worst examples of the patronage system.
And Washington is now a plum assignment. Now only because of the position of the U.S. in the world, but because Washington, D.C. is a far more livable city than it was 150 years ago.
Probably the last word on the subject.
Next time: the most powerful book of the 19th century.

Through the darkness of future past
The magician longs to see
One chance opts between two worlds
Fire walk with me

ISTANBUL – Li Na swept past injured Victoria Azarenka 6-2, 6-1 Friday to earn a place in the semifinals of the WTA.
Azarenka hurt her back while serving in the sixth game of the first set and was clearly in pain the rest of the match. The No. 2 player took a medical timeout and received treatment during several changeovers. She stayed on court despite poor movement and wincing in pain.
Azarenka did win one game with some ferocious serving, but mostly stayed in the middle of the baseline and tried to hit quick winners.
Li won the group 3-0, while Azarenka finished 1-2.
Jankovic will play defending champion Serena Williams in the semifinals. Williams swept her group on Thursday.
The fourth-seeded Li will play either Petra Kvitova or Angelique Kerber.
Li advanced to her first semifinal in three appearances at the season-ending event that brings together the top eight women in the world.
