[SOLVED!] Taylor vs Martin Guitars: Digging the Facts of the Best Guitar Makers
01/01/2023 01/01/2023 by Jeff DeLia
1 Taylor Background
2 Martin Background
3 Taylor vs Martin: Build
4 Taylor vs Martin: Bracing
5 Taylor vs Martin: Playability
6 Taylor vs Martin: Playing Styles
7 Taylor vs Martin: Acoustics/Electronics
8 Taylor vs Martin: Sound
In discussions about guitars, Taylor vs Martin guitars stands out from others comparisons since both brands have a reputation for releasing quality products. Guitars from each of the brands offer distinctive features so choosing between them is no cakewalk. Both brands show up in your shortlist and you cannot pick one over the other? Then this article is exactly what you need,
Taylor Background
Established in 1974 by Robert Taylor, the Taylor Guitars is one of the fastest-growing guitar manufacturers that easily compete the old Martin Guitars. It's known for its professional and affordable guitars for professionals and beginners alike.
Taylor offers a more modern collection of guitars, which players like Damon Albarn, John Petrucci, and Taylor Swift are using. It also has a patented body design, the Grand Auditorium. Aside from acoustic guitars, Taylor also has electric guitars with signature 'Taylor tone' — bright and rich.
Martin Background
Maybe, there's no legendary musician who hasn't played a Martin guitar. Founded in 1833 by the German immigrant C.F. Martin Sr., he first made guitars under his name. And, today, Martin Guitars still run and owned by the C.F. Martin family.
Martin is prominent for inventing the most popular acoustic guitar design, the dreadnought guitar. Based in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, Martin Guitars continues to produce excellent guitars. No wonder, legends like Johnny Cash, Elvis and Paul McCartney played a Martin during their times.
Taylor vs Martin: Build
In terms of construction and design, Taylor and Martin are two different kinds. Taylor is geared towards forward-thinking using modern techniques available. Martin, on the other hand, retains the traditional style, which, of course, is working well for almost two centuries. Taylor Guitars are done on a big scale, while most Martin Guitars are handcrafted.
Another big difference between their designs is the neck angle. Taylor guitars have neck angles that can be easily adjusted to accommodate natural changes. Although the reset needs refinishing and additional cost, it's not like you'll change it every day. It's just only for a couple of decades. While for Martin Guitars, they have the standard, non-adjustable neck that still has a resonant depth tone than Taylor's.
Taylor vs Martin: Bracing
Most guitars are made using the X-bracing, but it has some limitations. With this type of bracing, you'll only get either better sustain or more volume, you can't have both. However, this is what Martin usually has in their guitars. It offers a more traditional acoustic guitar sound.
For Taylor, their Master Builder Andy Powers created a more versatile kind of bracing, which offers great volume and better sustain, the V-Class bracing. Surprisingly, aside from enhanced volume and sustain, it offers better intonation, too. Guitars with the V-class bracing has a more focused and studio-like sound quality.
Taylor vs Martin: Playability
Both manufacturers are making great instruments. When these two are properly setup, their playability is superb. Taylor has an adjustable neck angle to easily adjust the action, whenever you need. On the flip side, Martin offers a set-neck, which is non-adjustable, yet it provides better energy transfer between the body and neck.
Another factor when considering playability is the fretboard radius. Most Martin guitars have 16-inch radius, while Taylor is slightly smaller at 15-inch. The smaller radius of Taylor makes it easier to fret the barre chords, while the flatter radius of Martins is perfect for melody and lead guitarists.
Taylor vs Martin: Playing Styles
Not all guitars are made great for all playing styles. One guitar may be best for fingerstyle while the other is better when strumming. With fingerstyle, it's better to grab a smaller guitar like Taylor's Grand Symphony and Grand Concert. Likewise, Martin's smaller models are also better for fingerpicking that the dreadnoughts. Taylor guitars are more preferred by players who do fingerstyle often.
On the flip side, when strumming and flatpicking, there is a need for bigger and louder sound projection. Hence, Martin dreadnoughts do that better. But, Taylor guitars are also preferred by those who sing while strumming because of its less overpowering sound. So, for strummers and flatpickers, a Martin guitar may be preferred.
Taylor vs Martin: Acoustics/Electronics
Both makers have great pickups. Taylor has its very own Expression System that is designed to capture sound beyond the saddle rather than underneath it. It has a reputation to recreate a natural acoustic tone.
Martin works closely with Fishman to produce cutting-edge pickup designs that can capture traditional tones. The Fishman electronics on new Martins offer great studio sound quality in front of your guitar, capturing its natural acoustic tone.
Taylor vs Martin: Sound
Sound varies depending on the size, the shape and the material used. So, for both Martin and Taylor, each guitar has its very own unique tonal characteristics. However, as you know Martin has been there for almost two centuries, so most people may think that Martin's sound is the "classic acoustic guitar tone."
Since Taylor is just there in less than a century, you can feel a more modern touch of their sound – crisp, well-balanced and articulate. Taylor is more focused on the upper mids, while Martin is in the lower mids. Indeed, the Martin tone and the Taylor tone are completely different. In this YouTube video, you'll clearly see their unique sound characteristics:
Taylor vs Martin guitars debate is not actually a comparison between the best, but between the classic and modern approach to music. As you can see, Martin preserves tradition, while Taylor embraces the new and the modern. So, from this article, you should realize that you don't need to choose either of them. You can have both a Martin and Taylor. Play the former when you missed the old times and play the latter when you need a futuristic guitar piece.

Crap Kits: The Caribous of Colorado
*WARNING: The following story may contain football kit images some viewers may find upsetting*
The 1970s razzmatazz of the North American Soccer League brought glamour, colour and flair to a curious Stateside audience.
The league's franchises snapped up many of the world's most exciting players and gave imaginative names and identities to their teams, in a bold attempt to bring soccer to the masses.
Attracted by a new adventure and a fistful of dollars, Pele and Franz Beckenbauer famously joined the New York Cosmos, whilst the LA Aztecs signed George Best.
Former QPR & Manchester City maverick Rodney Marsh made Florida his home with the Tampa Bay Rowdies, and Dutch master Johan Cruyff played for the Washington Diplomats and LA Aztecs.
Meanwhile in Denver, the western inspired Colorado Caribous took to the field at the Mile High Stadium in most probably the worst football kit ever seen on God's green earth.
A football stuck between a caribou's antlers
Founded with the help of music producer Jim Guercio, the side took their name from his Caribou Ranch studios which played host to stars including Watford legend Elton John and Chicago (It's Hard For Me To Say I'm Sorry).
"BROWN & TAN"
In 1978, the Caribous of Colorado played in the unconventional colour combination of brown and tan whilst wearing an innovative frilly band of leather across their chests which ran under their arms and round to their backs to make them look like soccer playing cowboys.
Quite possibly the worst football shirt ever made
That band of leather, stitched to the shirts by legendary Chicago based all-American sportswear heroes Medalist-Sand Knit, was originally longer but had to be trimmed to prevent it hitting opposition players in the eyes.
Guercio's well-intentioned marketing gimmicks tried to create excitement and build an identity for the team that Soccer Moms and kids could latch on to, but players entering the field wearing Stetsons didn't catch on and sadly, the Caribous migrated south to become the Atlanta Chiefs after just one season.
Yee-hah-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Although an April Fool's Day trick by MLS' side Colorado Rapids (see image above) fooled only the most foolish fans into believing the look was coming back for one night only, thankfully we have not seen faux-leather tassels on football kits in the 40 years since the Caribous headed for pastures new.
Was this really the worst football kit the world has ever seen?
What's your nomination for soccer's most appalling strip?

The latest news and trends from the wonderful world of visual merchandising. Jano Dawes and her team share their passion for VM.
The wonder of visual merchandising all over the world is created in many formats – design, propping, fashion, merchandise. Each visual merchandiser has a task to fulfil, be it to create impact, to sell product, to attract the passers-by eye. Whatever your task or goal is in when you set out to do your VM job… be sure of one thing COLOUR creates impact!
This was a cute (and very tiny) store in the streets below the Sacre Coeur. Selling colourful lanterns woven from string, I loved the simplistic and colour blocked format in which they had merchandised the store.
Both of these shots just show the use of colour in props and how (on a gloomy, grey day in Paris) colour can inject life, energy and excitement to front of store & visual merchandising. Lovin' that little travel mate of mine / model!!
Fauchon is a DIVINE brand with 2 stores near L'Opera in Paris and a much visit for all. Not only is the product gobsmackingly amazing…. the merchandising is to die for. Completely decked out in gloss black and hot pink the merchandise comes to life amidst this electric style of merchandising. The packaging too is simple, sophisticated and heavenly – matt black boxes with branded, hot pink satin ribbon tied neatly on top. The behind counter neon was a fav – simple and uber COOL!
Then we got to London and the gloom only continued BUT the colour intensified. Check these fun department store windows. Bright frame mouldings are used as casings for the merchandise. And I love, love, love the oversized hands – fun, bright and a touch mad!!!
Another couple of fun examples of how colour in propping can lift and revitalise visual merchandising. Colourful painted trees and stumps work as both props and risers (love multitasking elements within a display). And pin-wheels… who doesn't love a pin-wheel?

I wasn't thinking about my book in particular. In fact, i was zigzagging though a never-ending mental checklist of all the mundane task i had to complete once I got to work.
At the time, I was toiling as the executive assistant for an uber prolific media maverick and I was running 15 minutes late as usual.
I never meant to be tardy. Every day planned to be on time, actually. But I always seemed to lose 15 minutes between the snooze button and the shower.
That day, it was more of the same… Except for that pesky voice echoing through my ears, eerily sounding like my scrappy Grandma Margaret.
In that instant, it became crystal clear to me: The way into the story that had eluded me for the past three years was not through my no-nonsense matriarch great-grandmother, but through her stubborn black sheep child.
A slave to logic, I had it in my head that the life-inspired trilogy of my mother, grandmother and great-grandmother had to begin with my granny. And when that didn't work, I shoved the story to the back of my consciousness and concentrated on the responsible pursuit of more important things, i.e. food and shelter.
But what I failed to realize – as my late grandmother so eloquently drilled into my ears that fateful morning – was that the beginning ain't always the beginning.
My grandmother, although not first in line in my maternal trinity, was the driving force that changed the direction of my entire family. Had she made other choices or walked a different path, i may have never existed.
She was the catalyst. The beginning. My way in!
Late as hell for work, I stumbled out of the shower and started writing.

A home accessory that almost everyone has a need for at some point is a vase. They can hold anything from fresh flowers to artificial fillers for instant brightening of a room. To make the vase even more interesting, it can be decorated in a rustic style with a variety of materials. Here is a collection of DIY rustic vases to try.
This first vase is one that I made from a recycled wine bottle and birch bark.
The rest of the collection are vases that I found across the web that I thought were the most stylish.
1. Rustic Weathered Wood Shim Vase by Love Grows Wild.
I love that the weathered wood is actually inexpensive wood shims that have been made to look weathered with vinegar and coffee.
2. Hollow Log Vase by Ashbee Design.
I find hollowed out logs in the woods quite often and love this idea for inserting a bud vase. This DIY takes a couple of power tools for slicing and sanding but the result is a work of art!
This DIY is more rustic industrial but very delicate and sweet. You can get the full tutorial at Free People.
4. DIY Metallic Coffee Can Vases.
For some more rustic industrial inspiration, these painted metallic coffee can vases are perfect for the metallic trend right now. Homey Oh My shows how easy it is to make the adorable herb planters.
5. Twig Vase by Greco Design.
This last vase is another one that can be made at practically zero cost. All you need is to collect a jar of any size and some twigs from outside. The twigs are then hot glued to the jar – simple, rustic and beautiful!
Do you have a favorite rustic vase or any unique DIY's that you have tried?
The metallic coffee can vases are fantastic! That's an idea I will certainly use here at home. Awesome tips I get whenever I come here! What color of spray did you use for the copper look?
I'm glad that you like them! The spray paint that was used was Rustoleum metallic spray paint in copper.

DURBAN FILMMART HOSTS TILANE JONES OF ARRAY NOW
One of the key figures attending the Durban FilmMart this year, Tilane Jones is the executive director of ARRAY, the film distribution collaborative founded by Oscar-winner Ava DuVernay which is focused on women filmmakers and filmmakers of colour. Since 2011, Array has acquired key titles, including Ava DuVernay's Middle of Nowhere, Andrew Dosunmu's Restless City and Haile Gerima's Ashes and Embers. In the process, Jones has shifted the position of films made by women and people of colour, bringing an audience to films that would otherwise struggle to find screens. As well as her position at Array, Jones is also a production manager with several high-profile titles to her name, including a range of fashion and beauty films and television productions.
Talking about her first visit to South Africa and her engagement with the local film market, Jones says that she hopes to inspire and encourage women to overcome the challenges they face on the continent as women filmmakers. "I want to let women filmmakers know that there is an audience that is hungry for stories told from their perspective. ARRAY has worked hard to cultivate that audience and we are eagerly awaiting them and their films."
Tilane will also be meeting with local women filmmakers to find out what their needs are and what hurdles they need to overcome, in order to better inform herself on how she might be able to inspire and encourage them in the important work that they are doing. "I am very excited about my first visit to South Africa and the Durban FilmMart", she said, "and I look forward to meeting with emerging filmmakers from the continent, with the aim of acquiring more African titles to be distributed in the United States".
Asked about whether there was a defining moment when she had cut through the barriers that traditionally held women back from being major players in the global film industry, Jones takes a somewhat pragmatic approach. "There always have been and always will be barriers to break through as a woman and person of colour. But the task of breaking those barriers will never end, so instead I focus on trying to acquire films by women filmmakers and filmmakers of colour that, one by one, break a barrier just by existing and being seen by audiences. There are many audiences that would not have been able to experience this art form if it weren't for ARRAY and our partners. I focus my efforts on the work more than on breaking barriers."
Talking about women in the industry who have inspired her, Jones says that she is motivated to continue her work by every woman filmmaker and producer who creates complex, dynamic images. Of those women, ARRAY founder, Ava DuVernay is a key inspiration to her– "Due to her amazing storytelling ability, for loving herself as a black woman and a black woman filmmaker who tells stories from her own unique perspective, for being passionate about her culture, and for being passionate about film. Ava is always pushing past the 'no' and finding her own 'yes' and that inspires me more than anything."
Finally, does she have any advice for young female film-makers just starting out as to how they can cut through the clutter in an industry that is still male-dominated? "I always tell filmmakers to tell their own stories and to tell them well. Being a woman filmmaker and telling stories from a women's perspective is all that needs to be done to cut through the clutter. Don't focus on the noise – it is there to distract you. Focus on the story and telling it to the best of your capability. "
Jones will appear in the DFM programme, session entitled 'Women-led Film: In Conversation with Tilane Jones' on July 14 at 14h00 to 16h00.
The 8th Durban FilmMart takes place in Durban, at the Tsogo Sun Elangeni from July 14 to 17, 2017, during the 38th edition of the Durban International Film Festival (July 13 to 23, 2017).

Luigi Maggi (ur. 1867, zm. 1946) – włoski aktor i reżyser epoki kina niemego.

Pracę w przemyśle filmowym zaczął w 1906 r., kiedy to Arturo Ambrosio zatrudnił go w swojej wytwórni jako aktora i kierownika castingu. Jednak szybko zajął się reżyserią i został jednym z najważniejszych reżyserów Ambrosio Film. Specjalizował się w filmach historycznych.

Nakręcone przez niego w 1908 r. Ostatnie dni Pompei były jednym z pierwszych włoskich filmów, który przebił się na rynek amerykański.

Jego film Nozze d'oro (w którym sam również zagrał) otrzymał w 1911 r. nagrodę na Wystawie Światowej w Turynie. Jego osiągnięciem był też film Satana, przedstawiający objawianie się Szatana w różnych czasach i okolicznościach historycznych. Film ten zaginął, ale jego skomplikowana struktura narracyjna mogła mieć wpływ na Nietolerancję Davida Warka Griffitha, zarówno w zakresie pomysłu jak i struktury.

Jego karierę przerwała w 1914 r. I wojna światowa, w której walczył. Po powrocie nie pracował już w Ambrosio film. Pracował w Film d'Arte Italiana oraz Milano Film. Przemysł filmowy porzucił na początku lat 20. XX wieku.

It took Zeloof about three months to replicate Ellsworth's transistors. "That was getting my feet wet and learning the processes and everything, and acquiring all the equipment," he says. "My goals from there were to build on what she did and make actual ICs." So far, he has made only simple integrated circuits with a handful of components, but he is aiming to build a clone of the ur-microprocessor, the Intel 4004, released in 1971. "It's got about 2,000 transistors at 10 micrometers.... I think that's very attainable," says Zeloof.
The DIY Fab: One of Zeloof's test wafers [top]. His equipment includes a salvaged electron microscope [middle] and a plasma oven [bottom].
He obtained much of his raw materials and equipment from online sellers, in various states of repair. "Acquiring all the equipment and building and fixing all the stuff I take off eBay is half of the whole journey," he says. His equipment includes a high-temperature furnace, a vacuum chamber built from surplus parts, and a scanning electron microscope. The electron microscope was "a broken one from a university that just needed some electrical repairs," says Zeloof. He estimates that the microscope originally cost about $300,000 back in 1996. It was listed for sale at $2,500, but Zeloof persuaded the seller to take "well below that" and ended up spending more on shipping than it cost to buy the microscope.

'Disaster Waiting to Happen' in North Carolina Wheat
Christina Cowger urges North Carolina wheat producers to be prepared for fusarium head blight or scab this year by monitoring their risks and signing up for free scab alerts from the U.S. Wheat & Barley Scab Initiative before April which is the next scab season for the state.
Speaking at the North Carolina Commodities Conference in Durham Jan. 15, Cowger, small gains pathologist at North Carolina State University, said the alerts are free and delivered by text or email. Signing up is easy at the website www.scabusa.org that allows farmers to actually look at their scab risk. The website includes daily in-season risk maps for each locale and provides scab prediction based on geography, grain type and forecast weather patterns.
Cowger cautions that scab is a disaster waiting to happen in North Carolina because studies reveal that most of the wheat varieties planted in the Tar Heel State are susceptible or moderately susceptible to fusarium head blight while fungicides don't offer complete control and must be applied at the right time.
"There was a terrible scab epidemic last year, particularly in Louisiana, and all the way over to Georgia. People have never seen such bad scab. It devastated the wheat industry in that area so this is a real problem. It could have just as easily been North Carolina that was devastated by scab. It's all about the weather," Cowger said.
In her talk, Cowger shared the results of a telephone survey of 16,000 growers of wheat and barley conducted in February 2014 by the U.S. Wheat & Barley Scab Initiative. The study was designed to find ways to better manage scab going forward. The survey was conducted in 17 scab prone states in the central and Eastern United States and included North Carolina.
The survey showed that just 15 percent of the soft red winter wheat varieties planted in North Carolina were moderately resistant to scab. Fifty percent of the acres reported were susceptible or moderately susceptible to scab. None of the commercial varieties are fully resistant to scab at this time, Cowger said.
In addition, another non-scientific scab survey was conducted in 2014 by the North Carolina Small Grain Growers Association and the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service. In the study of 267 respondents from 15 counties who were questioned at Extension meetings, 200 said they planted wheat and they represented 82,000 acres planted. The survey revealed that 22 percent of those 82,000 acres were moderately resistant to scab. The rest of the acreage was either susceptible or moderately susceptible.
Cowger said both surveys make it clear that North Carolina wheat growers must monitor and manage for scab.
She encourages farmers to consider varieties that are moderately resistant to scab. "On average, good scab-resistant varieties are going to be as profitable we predict as scab susceptible varieties when you factor in the scab risk, scab pressure and dockage policies," Cowger said.
Fungicides are the other part of the equation, but Cowger cautions that fungicides are tricky. "The first step is you have to monitor your risk because fungicides have to be applied at the right time," she stressed.
Cowger said national fungicide trials conducted over many years show that the best fungicides offer just 38 to 45 percent control of the disease. "They only reduce the disease partially, and those are the best products," she said.
The fungicides Proasaro, Caramba and Proline offer the best scab control. "Folicure and Tilt will give you some control, but not as good as the three most effective products," Cowger said.
The best time to apply fungicides to wheat is at early flowering, when the anthers are just coming out. "You can get a benefit from spraying up to seven days later, and that's good news. We learned over the last few years that your timing window is not as narrow as we led people to believe earlier," she said.
"You're still going to have a lot of scab even if you spray under the best timing and manner possible if you plant a susceptible variety," Cowger emphasized. "You have to use both approaches to protect yourself fully in a bad scab year. That's why we say plant moderately resistant varieties plus use a fungicide when the risk is high. That's what we call integrated management. It's really the only way to tackle this scab problem effectively."

It is without saying that the Argentinean asados is an absolute must to eat when you visit Argentina and one may think there is one standard parrilla (the grill) for preparing the asado. The opposite is true however.
The most common parrilla you find in houses in Argentina is the normal horizontal grill parrilla. It is the one described in this site about Argentinean parrilla. It takes less space and keeps the heat concentrated in a smaller space.
But when visiting Argentina, most tourists see the large spits and crosses in the restaurant where they put the meat vertically on a spit around the fire. This "asador criollo" is beautiful to watch that attract a lot of views. It does however take more space, equipment and a lot of effort and patience to prepare this type of asador criollo.
To see the Patagonian parrilla in Patagonia or in the campo is of course a much more attractive experience to see than the home parrilla that grills small and medium sized cuts of meat. The asador criollo is typically used to grill a complete animal or very large parts of meat, like a sheep or a cow, that is cut open and spread with its four legs over the cross of a spit.
They do take more time, but once ready, you will not regret this special restaurant experience.

Q: Example for submanifold of a manifold
I have the following definition of the submanifold as you can see in the image, I am trying to construct an example to understand the condition that a submanifold is satisfying. But I think I am making some mistake, I will be grateful if someone helps me out,
So let the manifold $S=\mathbb{R^2}$ of dimension 2 and the submanifold $M=\mathbb{R}$ of dimension 1 as defined in the image let $\xi^1,\xi^2$ and $u^1=u$ be the coordinates of the manifold $S$ and submanifold $M$ respectively.Now I wanted to look for the condition $(i),(ii),(iii)$
as condition $(i)$ says that the restriction of coordinate function $\xi^i|M$ to be $C^{\infty}$,as we know that $\xi^i:S\to \mathbb{R}$ is defined as $\xi^i(\xi^1,\xi^2)=\xi^1 \text{ if i=1 and }=\xi^2 \text{ if i=2 }$ so if I restrict it to $M=\mathbb{R}$ then we will have $\xi^i|M:M\to \mathbb{R}$ such that $\xi^i(u)=u$ since in $M$ we have only $u$ as a coordinate and this is $C^{\infty}$ so the condition (i) is verified.
for condition (ii) we have that $B_{a}^{i}=(\frac{\partial\xi^i|M}{\partial u^a})_p$ and $B_a=[B_{a}^{1},....,B_{a}^{n}]\in \mathbb{R^n}$ then for each point $p\in M$ the set $\{B_1,B_2,....,B_m\}$ are linearly independent.
so if we convert this condition according to our case we will have to check that the set $\{B_1\}$ is linearly independent which means it should not be zero so we have $B_1=[b_{1}^{1}]$ and $B_{1}^{1}=(\frac{\partial \xi^1|M}{\partial u})=1$
I wanted to know that is my construction is correct?? If yes then can someone explain what this 2nd condition is trying to say?

Lead toxicity, or poisoning, is a leading concern for a number of bird species, including Bald Eagles. Lead poisoning can occur from the ingestion of lead slug or bullet fragments found in the systems and carcasses of deceased and live prey. Millions of birds are affected annually.
Lead has no known biologically beneficial role. In 1977, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission banned lead paint in residential and public buildings as well as in toys and furniture, and in 1996 it was banned from use in gasoline. In 1991, it was banned for waterfowl hunting; however, lead is still a leading metal used in the ammunition for upland hunting, shooting sports and in fishing tackle.
This presents a significant threat to Bald Eagles as this species' diet primarily consists of fish, waterfowl, and carrion. Eagles frequently scavenge carcasses of deer, pheasants and other wildlife that may harbor lead or lead fragments. Waterfowl and fish impaired by lead ingestion become easy targets for Eagles.
When ingested in large enough quantities, lead has detrimental effects on the nervous and reproductive systems of mammals and birds. Eagles with lead poisoning may exhibit loss of balance, gasping, tremors and impaired ability to fly. Emaciation follows and death can occur within 2 to 3 weeks after lead ingestion.
Historically, hunters have been known to exhibit strong outdoor ethics and patriotic love of country. The goal of the American Eagle Foundation is to empower hunters and fishermen with the knowledge and desire to hunt ethically and responsibly.
Americans have the right to enjoy the sport of hunting, but we urge them to join us in protecting our Living symbol of Freedom by using alternative ammunition and fishing tackle that does not lead to the indirect lead poisoning of Bald Eagles and other birds of prey.
California has won the battle against lead ammunition! By 2019, the state of California will be lead-free, and hunting will no longer pose the threat of lead-poisoning of Bald Eagles and other raptors in that state.
The American Eagle Foundation beseeches the hunting and fishing community to pledge to non-lead alternatives in place of traditional lead-based ammunition and fishing tackle.
TAKE ACTION:
Take the Lead-Free Pledge:
"I am a hunter/fisher who cares about our delicate ecosystem. I pledge to choose and use alternatives to lead ammunition and fishing tackle in an effort to prevent against the unintentional lead poisoning of Bald Eagles and birds of prey."
Petition Against Lead Ammunition
Write a letter to your Governor, State Representatives, Secretary of the Interior, and Director of the US Fish and Wildlife Service asking them to follow suit with California and ban the sale and use of lead ammunition and fishing tackle.
The Raptor Center at the University of Minnesota has collected volumes of data regarding the issue and actually produced a video (shown below) highlighting the torture these eagles go through when being poisoned by lead.

Brooks & Dunn Announce 2023 "Reboot" Tour
No need to go supping at the trough of close facsimiles to the 90s country music that's so near and dear to your heart, served up by 20-somethings who weren't even alive in the era and can only boast being "90s-inspired." Brooks & Dunn are still alive and kicking.

Shania Twain Goes 80s Glam Instead of Going 90s Country
Coinciding with the announcement of Shania Twain's signing with Republic Nashville was the release of the most terrible single called "Waking Up Dreaming" that dashes any hopes for a resurgence of Shania country, and picks up where her paltry 2017 comeback record Now left off, namely pop music.

Blake Shelton is All Mullet, Little 90s on "No Body"
So now here comes Blake Shelton with a photoshopped mullet, releasing what he's marketing as a 90s-style country single called "No Body." But unlike some of these other artists professing their proficiency with 90s country, ol' Blake Shelton was actually around and playing music at the tail end of the era.

Album Review – Ronnie Dunn's "100 Proof Neon"
Everybody wants to be 90s country these days, but nobody wants to live through an era without the wide proliferation of the internet, and when cell phones looked like carry-on luggage. But if you want the real stuff, you're always best going directly to the source, like Ronnie Dunn.

It's country. It's traditional. But it's also not so stuffy and dated that the masses would writhe at the sound of it like so many traditional country fans do when they get a whiff of today's mainstream country radio, or today's radio listeners do when they hear Hank.

Album Review – Ray Wylie Hubbard's "Co-Starring"
'Co-Starring' is a spirited, ambitious, well-written and performed late career effort by Ray Wylie Hubbard that makes a strong case why he deserves major label backing, why all the praise and opportunities he's been receiving lately (however late) are warranted, while also making a worthy introduction into why so many revere this man.

Conservatives & Independents Can Be Great Songwriters Too
There is no doubt that by any objective assessment, when it comes to the world of creative types in the realm of music or otherwise, their ranks tend to veer more towards liberal ideals when it comes to politics. But that in no way excludes the gift of creativity from people who happen to be more conservative or independent of mindset.

Eric Church On The Influence of Ray Wylie Hubbard
Whatever you want to call him, "The Forgotten Outlaw," "The Dead Thumb King," "Wylie Lama," or a host of other nicknames he's amassed over his many years as a music troubadour, Ray Wylie Hubbard has been going through an elongated career resurgence that most 72-year-old performers could only dream of.

Brooks & Dunn Announced as Country Music Hall of Fame Inductees
Brooks & Dunn will be the newest inductees into the Country Music Hall of Fame in the Modern Era.

Brooks & Dunn was a commercial powerhouse duo in the 90's if there ever was one.

A Retrospective Reconsideration for the Legacy of Brooks & Dunn
Don't worry, there will be plenty of country artists from the early and late 90's who we won't retrospectively be praising as we get older and the music of today gets worse. But you're short changing yourself as a country fan if you write off many of the big songs and early albums of Brooks & Dunn as forgettable fluff.

Andrew Dorff Was The Kind of Songwriter Nashville Needed More Of (RIP)

The Best of Mainstream Country Music in 2016
If 90% of mainstream country music is garbage, then it stands to reason that 10% of it is at least decent, if not good or great. That calculus hasn't really changed much recently, even as mainstream country has improved. What has changed is that 10% is actually finding traction on radio, at awards shows, and is making fierce inroads into the 90%'s monopoly.

Album Review – Ronnie Dunn's "Tattooed Heart"
Ronnie Dunn has the voice and the name to where if he wanted to transition into a legacy act or do like Tim McGraw and make the best of the opening up of the format to better songs, he could really do some damage. But he has to really commit to it. His days of #1 hits and CMA Awards are unfortunately in the past.

Tara Elwell Henning & Miriam Williams
Founders, Superkin
These seasoned retail vets set out to shake up the maternity and postpartum apparel experience, to allow women to feel like themselves in a time when everything around them is changing. Enter, Superkin, an apparel brand for expecting and new moms. Launched in 2018, Superkin brings a fresh perspective to maternity style and modern motherhood. Retail executives (Louis Vuitton, Walmart, JCrew) and longtime friends, Tara and Miriam designed an assortment that dresses her -- not the bump -- designed to fit, flatter and celebrate modern women. We love how these clothes can move between pregnancy and postpartum, helping to dress you for the office or for fun!
The Returnity Project: Tell us a bit about yourselves, your families and your careers
Miriam Williams:
I've loved retail since I was folding the denim wall at the Gap in my undergrad days. There's an energy and creativity in retail that really inspires and motivates me. I've held operations and strategy roles at Coach, Louis Vuitton, J.Crew, and L'Occitane and, most recently, I ran Logistics Partnerships at Narvar. I love to visit wine country and run the occasional 5K. I live in Berkeley, CA with my husband Jake and our 3-year-old son. We bought a hundred-year-old house and are recently experiencing the joys of a bathroom remodel!! Ask me anything about undermount sinks and grout colors.
Tara Elwell Henning:
I've lived in so many different places and that has had a tremendous impact on my life. I studied in Paris (double majored in French), which led me to my first job at Louis Vuitton in NYC. I caught the retail bug and continued with roles in buying and planning at Walmart.com, Gymboree and the retail-tech startup, Narvar. Launching a company was never something I thought I'd do. After a deep dive into solving my own pain point combined with my passion for the retail industry, the opportunity to redefine the way a generation views maternity and modern parenting, I simply couldn't let it go. My husband, Louis, and I live in Sausalito, CA with our two daughters (4 ½ and 2 ½) and our black lab. We enjoy exploring Northern CA and are often in Tahoe (winter AND summer), wine country or exploring on a hike.
TRP: At The Returnity Project, we focus on supporting women who are returning to work from maternity leave. What was your Returnity experience like?
Absolutely crazy. My son was born in New York City and when he was three months old, I accepted a job in California, while I was still on maternity leave. My first day back at work as a new mom was also my first Monday as a California resident and my first day at a brand new job. I was navigating so much change that I honestly didn't know which end was up. Although my entire world got shaken up, I was showing up at work and in social situations as if things were normal. It took a year to realize that we needed to slow down for my own health and for my family's happiness. These days we like to keep it simple - having a constantly changing kiddo is more than enough complexity!
TEH:
The only thing I remember, despite feeling ready, was that I had a good, cathartic sob session while holding my daughter the night before my first day back. Before having a kid, the thought of being out of the office for three or four months seemed like an eternity. In those four months, my world had been totally rocked and when I got back, it didn't seem much had actually changed -- they were still talking about the same stuff! I feel fortunate to have an incredible caretaker who's been with us since our first daughter was born. I know that I am a better person when I have both a career and motherhood. Pro Tip: Don't go back to work on a Monday! Try going back on a Wednesday or Thursday to lessen the blow.
TRP: We're huge fans of Superkin and your focus on making moms feel beautiful, confident (and fashionable!) in pregnancy and postpartum. Tell us more about what led you to create Superkin.
MW & TEH:
We first met and became friends while working together in NYC at Louis Vuitton. In the 10 years since, we've both gotten married, moved across the country to the West Coast, had kids, and worked at three companies together! Aside from the late nights and brunches in NYC, weddings and life, we always found a way to geek out on retail. In 2017, our pregnancies overlapped and we were lamenting that everything about maternity clothes, including the shopping experience, felt like a total afterthought. From our experience seeing the fast-paced change of the retail landscape, we knew something was missing from maternity clothing. After a survey, which we like to joke went "viral" (with nearly 700 responses in 36 hours!), and many conversations with anyone who had designed or sold maternity clothes in the last decade, we agreed we could do something better and never looked back. But it's not just about the clothes for us.
We're interested in telling stories about today's moms - from incredible achievements at work, to her service in the community, to struggles in fertility, to the complexity of dual earner households - our generation is writing our own rules and pushing for business, government and media to catch up. We don't think motherhood is all sunshine and rainbows. And we want to empower our customers to feel like THEMSELVES in a time when everything around them is changing. So, we try to keep it real and acknowledge the amazing people that are raising tiny humans.
TRP: What differences have you noticed about working mom life, going from corporate careers to an entrepreneurial venture?
I believe in authenticity and have always used my social skills and life experiences to build relationships at work. Once I became a mom, I felt it was important to talk about my son and portray motherhood in a positive light. I do remember on more than one occasion, walking into the elevator in the morning after having woken up at dawn, changed a blowout diaper, nursed, showered and commuted, and looking at a 20-something co-worker without a care in the world next to me, and thinking "I've lived five days already and you're barely awake." A good reminder that you NEVER know what's going on in someone's life outside of work.
I was at a start-up as employee #4 when I became a mom and that had its own challenges. I was the first person at the company to have a baby. I was lucky that our CEO, a father of three, wanted to set a high standard for women and parental leave. Since we didn't have HR, I did the research and proposed a maternity leave that's still in place today. It was stressful to think that the company size doubled in those four months I was out, but I came back to continue to ride the rocket ship.
As co-founders of Superkin, we certainly have a lot of fun and love that each day is different. However, there is a lot of pressure. We each love the flexibility of being able to take our children to school in the morning (if our schedules allow!) and have had plenty of late night sessions after bedtime. It's often stressful, but we absolutely love what we do and believe we can change the way moms shop. We do try to find time to disconnect from work. Secretly, we just try to get our husbands and kids together so we can at least grab a glass of champagne and talk. Our favorite line is, "Talk to you in five minutes" no matter what day or time it is.
TRP: What's one of your most memorable experiences as a working mom - good or challenging!
I went to a retail conference when I was still on maternity leave and my son was about 10 weeks old. It was a unique opportunity that I didn't want to miss, and we got a babysitter for the day. I brought my breast pump and had arranged for the space to pump, but when I got to the room and pulled out all my "gear," I realized I'd forgotten one of the teensy flanges that make the pump function properly. I panicked, and ultimately decided to order via Amazon Prime Now. Within the hour, all new Medela breast pump attachments arrived to the conference location before my boobs LITERALLY exploded. I was sweating (milk) bullets. I swear, if I could have hugged the delivery person without making a mess, I would have.
For far too long, my husband and I were passing ships in the night during the first year after our first daughter, Alexandra, was born. If he wasn't on a work trip, I was. It came to a head when, on a Sunday, I realized I couldn't get to the airport in time for my flight based on when he would be home to pass off the parenting torch. It was an awakening moment when I thought it would be totally normal to bring the kids to the airport and do the handoff there. (Shoutout to UrbanSitter for saving the day!) That mindset was neither sustainable nor healthy. We recognized that we can't burn the candle at both ends. These early years are HARD! It seems so basic, but make sure to set some sort of frequent date nights with your husband or partner. You'd be surprised how hard it can be to connect when two careers and life take over!
TRP: What are you most proud of?
I feel I'm still constantly learning in my relationships. I'm proud of the foundation that I've built in my personal and professional life and the way that foundation allows me to grow, expand and change.
My family and friends. It's pretty simple. Especially since becoming a mom, I often try to take a moment to recognize how fortunate we are, and despite the excitement of launching a company, these relationships are invaluable.

Q: How do you update the Window's Desktop WorkingArea? I am developing a security and kiosk library in my framework. The problem here is I have the proper methods and routines to disable various features of the Windows Shell. The main feature I am discussing here is the Windows Taskbar.
I have properly disabled, and hid the Windows Taskbar. The problem is that the WorkingArea of the Window's desktop is not updated by ShowWindow/EnableWindow calls to the Taskbar, and still leaves the reserved space for the Taskbar on the desktop.
After reading almost all the topics regarding this, I am dissappointed. I am not looking to simply make my program "Full Screen", "Top Most", those are not acceptable answers. I am actually looking to either unregister the Taskbar as an AppBar, or update the WorkingArea. Any other solution is not what I am looking for as they are just "workarounds" and not actually resolutions.
Any links, whitepapers, or code samples/guidance is appreciated.

A: You are going to have to be more flexible if you want a solution.  The only odds you'll have for a 'perfect' solution is SHAppBarMessage with ABM_REMOVE.  The odds aren't good, especially on Win7.  I don't want to try this myself, I like my taskbar :)

William 'Bill' Aird
AIRD, HUSE, FETT, SCHLITTER, MARTIN, DIXON, FLACK

ISOLATED HOUSE, NO CONVENIENCES, DON'T STOP 92 YEAR OLD FROM LIVING ALONE
William "Bill" Aird took a flashlight to show his dining room in the evening because there is little light in it once the sun goes down. A stair leads from it to a cellar, which he does not use. His unpainted house stands on a hill above what used to be the town of Ion northeast of Monona, Iowa in Allamakee County, Iowa. It has electricity, the REC brought that 14 years ago. There is no water, a pump outside the door provides that. There is no plumbing. There is an outside toilet up on the hill. The place does have a telephone. "We had to have that when the first baby came," he explained. The phone continues to be his primary means of contact with the outside world.
"I call him once or twice a week and he calls me whenever he wants to," said Marvin Flack of Postville, Iowa. Marvin grew up in Ion and now visits Bill once a week. "He always is in good spirits-- Certainly some of the neighbors look after him, but he don't need much looking after --he pretty well takes care of himself."
William "Bill" John Aird was born in the house 92 years ago and he has never lived elsewhere, except when in military service during World War I. "Bud and Mary (his children) have been after me for years to go to a home, but I don't want to leave this place until I have to," he said. "I have been here too damn long to leave." Bud (Robert) Aird, lives in Waterloo, Iowa and Mary (Helen Marie Martin) lives in Shullsburg, Wisconsin. A third youngster, Alfred William Aird died after being wounded in World War II.
Asked if it got lonesome, he responded disgustedly, "Why wouldn't it?" He said when he got lonesome, he "would just weather the storm --maybe call up somebody on the phone. Call up somebody and ask him if I can borrow $10," he joked. "He says, 'Well, you haven't paid back the $3 you borrowed last time'so I don't want to call him up again."
Bill has a pickup truck and a registered driver's license that permits him to drive 15 miles a day. When the weather is good, he drives that distance to Monona and back 4 or 5 afternoons a week, usually playing cards in a tavern there. "When there is a baseball game on television Bill goes there a lot," Flack said. Bill played baseball for the Ion town team, beginning in 1909, pitching and playing second base. When that folded, he played for Rossville from 1919 or 1920 until the end of the '20s, and then for Waukon, continuing to play until 1942. "There ain't a ball player left that I was with," he said almost with anger. Then he recalled with obvious delight, "About 2 or 3 weeks ago Bill Dixon came to me in a Monona restaurant and said, 'I am Bill Dixon and I played against you.' I told him I wanted to shake his hand then and 5 years from now-- It really done me good to see him after all these years."
In the small room in which Aird spends most of his time, including most of his eating, sleeping, sitting, watching TV, and talking with visitors, stands an old crank victrola which "worked 25 years ago" and a sewing machine which he said probably had the same thread on it that his wife had put on it. She suffered from hardening of the arteries and was an invalid for several years before dying August 24, 1979. Asked why he did not move the victrola and sewing machine, he said, "Where in the **** would I put them?"
On the wall of the room hangs a rattlesnake skin. The thin, tough outdoorsman enjoys telling about how he killed that 2 or 3 years ago and some of the 20 or so others he has killed during this century. "When they rattle, the damned hair on the back of your neck will stand up," the outdoorsman said. He, like many in the area in the first few decades of the century, speared fish even though that was illegal then. They speared at night to avoid getting caught but Aird enjoys telling about one time a game warden caught some spearfishermen, and broke the spears in two. He told about the fun he had spearfishing and the large quantity gotten in the Yellow River near where it runs through Ion, saying, "It was like a fair." Asked if he was ever bothered about breaking the law when spearfishing, he paused, indicated he thought the question was stupid, and replied, "Everything we did was illegal." "There was so many people spearfishing," Marvin Flack said. "They didn't waste the fish, so I should think they would let them do it," added Thelma Cowell, who grew up on "Irish Ridge" near Ion and was also visiting with Aird about the town's earlier days.
Flack said his father (about Aird's age) often seined fish on the Yellow River even though it was illegal. "People from Waukon came down here to seine." Cowell added. Aird said he did not like seining fish even though he loved to spear them. "When you seine you get wet up to your neck," he explained.

NOTE OF THE TRANSCRIBER:
According to the by-line with this article, this was the First part of 2 parts. Unfortunately, I do not have the second part which would have probably appeared in the Postville Herald the next week around December 31, 1986. The second part was titled: Mill Owner Sawed in Half. I do not know if the second article was about Bill or if the second article featured another local person.
William "Bill" John Aird was born on August 24, 1895 at Ion, Iowa to Robert and Minnie (Huse) Aird. On November 21, 1918, Bill married Lillian Emma Marie Fett, at Waukon, Iowa. Lillie was the daughter of Emma (Schlitter) and Fredrick Herman Fett. Bill Aird passed away at the age of 101 at the Good Samaritan Home Center in Waukon, Iowa on February 6, 1997. To say that Bill was a character, would have been an understatement! His reputation for catching rattlesnakes and taking the rattles to the Waukon Courthouse for the bounty was widely known around the county.

Top L-R:
1. Bill drives his fiancee, Lillian "Lillie" Fett, across the Ion bridge in his Model A shortly before they were married in 1918. "That was when I was still sparking her", he said.
2. Bill waves good-bye to friends as he stands in front of the house in which he has lived for almost all of his 92 years.
Bottom L-R:
1. Bill said he rarely uses the wood cooking stove in his kitchen because it doesn't pay when he cooks for only one person.
2. Bill walks toward his oil stove, which he uses to keep the temperature in his home near 80 degrees.
3. Bill uses his pump, his only source of water. He said it did not bother him to have to use an outside toilet, even in the middle of the winter because "You are too busy to get cold!"

The ultimate sacrifice : a comparative study of self-immolation as a tactic of political protest in India and South Korea.
In recent years, self-immolation has become a pervasive tactic of political protest. To this point, however, it has been unclear why self-immolation has become so widely employed, calling into question the social and political efficacy of the tactic. The purpose of this thesis is to determine self-immolation's impact on three target groups: the core, the periphery, and the political system. In doing so, I conduct a comparative study of India's anti-reservation movement and South Korea's pro-democracy movement, both of which experienced high frequencies of self-immolation. I demonstrate that while self-immolation was ineffective at mobilizing the core and only moderately effective at mobilizing the periphery and initiating political change, in South Korea, self-immolation was highly effective on all three groups. I argue that the differences in efficacy can be attributed to variations in social structure, political culture, issue diffusion, and institutional access to the political system.

Ocala, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/13/2018 -- There comes a time in all homeowners' lives when their heating and air conditioning systems are just not running as reliably as they'd like. This poses homeowners with the question of whether or not to purchase a new system—and the answer is yes. A new HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning) system is the best way to solve nearly all problems with temperature, humidity and comfort in the home. With Patrick's Heating & Air Conditioning's special financing deals, homeowners can also now enjoy a brand new HVAC system that, in the long run, practically pays for itself.
Patrick's Heating & Air Conditioning recognizes that large home improvement projects like an entire HVAC system replacement could place a strain on a homeowner's cash flow, especially if the family hasn't planned for the purchase in advance. Instead of living in discomfort and melting away in the sweltering Florida heat, Patrick's Heating & Air Conditioning recommends that all residents consider financing new HVAC systems through one of the company's affordable financing plans.
There are a number of benefits when it comes to financing with the Ocala, FL, air conditioning company, Patrick's Heating & Air Conditioning. First and foremost, any homeowner can rest assured that the new HVAC system upgrade is in good hands. For nearly two decades, Patrick's Heating & Air Conditioning has been installing and repairing thousands of AC systems throughout greater Ocala and The Villages. If there's anyone for the job, it's definitely Patrick's air conditioning installation specialists that serve The Villages, FL, and many of its surrounding areas.
Another great benefit of financing is that homeowners will save money in the long run. Homeowners with older AC systems may have noticed that their energy bills are much higher than they'd like. With a newer, more energy-efficient HVAC system, annual energy bills could be cut in half.
Patrick's Heating & Air Conditioning's new PACE program, one of the company's current financing options, is also a revolutionary new program that is designed to fit the needs and budget of nearly any household. PACE, a government-authorized program, allows homeowners to pay for their air conditioner upgrade with their property taxes, allowing simple payments annually or monthly with their mortgage payment. PACE also offers up to 100% financing, fixed-rate plans, no credit check, online account management, various term choices, and so much more. To learn more about all of the available financing options through Patrick's Heating & Air Conditioning, head on over to the company's website, PatricksHVAC.com.
Patrick's Heating & Air Conditioning has been the area's premier expert in heating and air conditioning installations, repairs, and maintenance for over 17 years. They remain committed to professionalism, customer service, and serving the community's HVAC needs with dedicated, reliable service.

Enjoy a snapshot of the vintage when the 2017 Beaujolais Nouveau is released, and look forward to celebrations across the country and globe.
It's Beaujolais Nouveau time again and the verdict is in on the 2017 harvest: great quality and small quantities. And starting Thursday, drinkers can judge for themselves as the young, fruity purple wine is poured from thousands of bottles around the world.
While the great sense of occasion that has surrounded the release in the past may have lost some luster, the 2017 vintage is still worth celebration.
Beaujolais Nouveau provides the first view of the harvest. And this year, it wasn't clear sailing. Frost, hail and then drought resulted in limited quantities of small grapes with tough skins. In the end, thanks to some rain, the harvest delivered on quality with the ripe grapes producing great wine.
Beaujolais Nouveau will be released Thursday at 12:01 am.
In the past, the wine couldn't leave Beaujolais until release time, and lorries and cars would race dangerously across Europe to deliver the wine to thirsty consumers in time for breakfast. Now, the wine is distributed ahead of time—you just can't buy it until the magic hour.
In Beaujolais, there's sure to be a party in the Georges Duboeuf winery. Duboeuf is the creator and biggest player in Beaujolais Nouveau, and the winery behind a 150 celebrations that will take place across the United States. Check your local events calendar to find one near you.
Franck Duboeuf, son of the legendary Georges, along with Anne Duboeuf are in New York City for a special reception at L'Appart restaurant to celebrate the occasion. Georges, meanwhile, is in Japan, where Nouveau is particularly beloved.
You can take part, too. Pick up a bottle at your favorite wine store on Thursday, and raise a toast to the 2017 harvest.

Q: Cauchy-Riemann: am I applying the equations correctly? $$\text{Re}(z) +i\text{ Im}(z)^2$$
The problem states to apply C-R and to describe what can be concluded. However, I don't understand what I can conclude without a point $z_0$.
My conclusion:
$$u(x,y)=x$$
$$v(x,y)=y^2$$
Applying C-R:
$$u_x=1$$
$$v_y=2y$$
The 2 above don't match, but the 2 below do.
$$u_y=0$$
$$v_x=0$$
Am I to conclude that the function is not differentiable at any value of $z$?
