Mekanik Kommando
"Dancing Elephants"
LP · EP
Mekanik Kommando was a post punk / New Wave band from Nijmegen, the Netherlands founded in 1979 by Peter van Vliet and Laszlo Panyigay. The duo became a quartet with the addition of Simon van Vliet and Mirjam van Hout. The name Mekanik Kommando comes from the album 'Mekanïk Destruktïw Kommandöh' by the French progressive rock band Magma. Inspired by a DIY ethos, Kraftwerk and Magma, the band began recording songs at home using two tape recorders. Their demo cassette was discovered by Wally van Middendorp of Minny Pops and owner of Plurex Records, who booked them for a gig at Paradiso in Amsterdam. In 1981 they were asked to contribute music on a flexidisc for the first issue of newly established magazine Vinyl. In the summer of that year the band recorded their debut album 'It Would Be Quiet In The Woods If Only A Few Birds Sing' released on Torso.
In February 1982 the band ...
In February 1982 the band secured five days of studio time at Salisbury Sound in Dordrecht. The end result was the mini-album 'Dancing Elephants' released on Torso later that year. Musically, the five songs are a mix between cold wave, experimental electronic and industrial pop. The band utilized two bass guitars plus a Korg 770, KR-55 drum machine, violin, effects, metals and plastics. Lyrics explore themes of decay and morality, hypnotically spoken on top of playfully metallic sounds.
All songs have been mastered by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. Each EP is housed in a replica of the original jacket, which features artwork by the group members, and includes a 4-page booklet with lyrics and notes designed by Eloise Leigh.

Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman dies at age 46
On this day in 2014, Philip Seymour Hoffman, considered one of the most talented and versatile actors of his generation, dies of an accidental drug overdose at age 46 in New York City. During his career, the prolific performer appeared in more than 50 movies, including "Capote," "Doubt" and "The Hunger Games" series, and earned a reputation for playing difficult or quirky characters. Hoffman also was an accomplished stage actor and director.
He won an Academy Award in the best actor category for his portrayal of author Truman Capote in "Capote" (2005), and received Oscar nominations for best supporting actor for his role as a CIA agent in "Charlie Wilson's War" (2007) and for his performance as a priest in "Doubt" (2008). Other film credits include "Mission: Impossible III" (2006), "Moneyball" (2011) and "The Hunger Games" series. Hoffman garnered a third best supporting actor Oscar nomination for his role as a cult leader in "The Master" (2012).
Hoffman also was an acclaimed stage actor and director, who helped co-found a theater company, LAByrinth, and earned Tony Award nominations for his performances in "True West" (2000), "Long Day's Journey into Night" (2003) and "Death of a Salesman" (2012), in which he starred as Willy Loman.
On February 2, 2014, Hoffman, who had struggled with drug addiction in his early 20s but was sober for many years before relapsing in 2012, was found dead in his Manhattan apartment. The medical examiner later ruled that the father of three had died from acute mixed drug intoxication.

This article is a short summary of Pokémon Black and White Versions.
Pokémon Black Version (Japanese: ポケットモンスターブラック Pocket Monsters Black) and Pokémon White Version (Japanese: ポケットモンスターホワイト Pocket Monsters White) are the 18th and 19th main series Pokémon games released, beginning the fifth generation of the series.
Unlike past games, which took place in regions modeled based on areas of Japan, Black and White take place in the far-off land of Unova, based on New York City in the United States, and unlike Generation III and Generation IV games, which take place at the same time as Generation I and Generation II, respectively, take place after the events of Generation II and Generation IV.
Black and White begin much like most other main series Pokémon games. The player must choose their name and gender. They are then put in their house and their friends Bianca and Cheren come. A present is delivered containing the region's three starters, Tepig, Oshawott, and Snivy. Bianca will choose the starter whose type is weak to the player's, and Cheren always the one with a stronger type. The three battle, and the player's room is wrecked in the process.

Floyd Mair wins Social Change fellowship
Thursday, February 21, 2019 - 15:36
The Enterprise — Melissa Hale-Spencer
Elizabeth Floyd Mair, who covers Guilderland for The Altamont Enterprise, has won a Raise the Age reporting fellowship from The Chronicle of Social Change.
Elizabeth Floyd Mair has won a Raise the Age reporting fellowship from The Chronicle of Social Change, an online news publication where several of her stories will be posted as well as published by The Enterprise this year.
The inaugural fellowship comes with a stipend of $2,700 and involves a series of conference calls in which Floyd Mair along with three other fellows in New York State — journalists from Watertown, Syracuse, and Ithaca — will hear from experts on juvenile justice and Raise the Age legislation.
The Chronicle bills itself as being "dedicated to solution-based news coverage of child welfare, juvenile justice, mental health and educational issues faced by vulnerable children." It is published by the not-for-profit Fostering Media Connections, based in Los Angeles, California, and is supported by foundations, subscribers, and donors.
Floyd Mair became interested in New York's Raise the Age legislation in 2017 when, as the Guilderland reporter for The Altamont Enterprise, she wrote about a Guilderland High School student with autism who, at 16, was treated very differently than his friend, who was 15 when they lodged false bomb threats at their school.
The 16-year-old, Nathan Agneta, was treated as an adult by the police and court system while the 15-year-old had his name withheld and had his case heard in Family Court. New York at that time was one of two states where 16- and 17-year-olds were treated as adults under the law.
The new law went into effect on Oct. 1, 2018, meaning 16-year-olds, in general, will no longer be charged or tried or held as adults. On Oct. 1 of this year, the law will apply to 17-year-olds too.
"I'm interested to find if there are unforeseen problems with this law still being hashed out," said Floyd Mair.
Floyd Mair has a lifelong interest in language.
After graduating from Guilderland schools, where she had studied Spanish from the fourth-grade on, she earned a bachelor's degree in philosophy, in 1983, from the State University of New York at Binghamton.
One of her favorite classes at Binghamton was a workshop in which students translated everything from Creole songs to African chants. "Spanish is warm, hot, outgoing, full of passionate emotion," said Floyd Mair. By her senior year of college, she said, "I was ready for something different." She studied Arabic.
For graduate school, she studied Japanese. "Japanese," she explained, "is more inaccessible, more reserved. It's different from American culture."
Floyd Mair spent three years at the University of Iowa studying Japanese, for a master's degree, along with two "intensive summers" at Indiana University, cramming five years of Japanese study into three. She then applied for and was admitted to the Ph.D. program in Japanese studies at the University of Toronto. In preparation, she traveled to Japan for a year of study at the Stanford Center in Yokohama.
Floyd Mair deferred her Ph.D., stayed in Japan, and never looked back. "I decided I didn't want to write for other academics," said Floyd Mair. "I wanted to write clearly for regular people. I didn't want to write in a pretentious way."
She got a job as a bank translator where she worked for five years and then worked for nine years for a publisher. "I learned how to edit books and make other people's writing better," said Floyd Mair.
When terrorists put poisonous gas on trains in Japan, people riding the trains broke with their usual countenance. "People would look at each other, making eye contact," said Floyd Mair. "I suddenly felt more at home."
Terrorism brought about a change for Floyd Mair, too.
She made a business trip to New York City in September 2001. "When 9/11 happened, I realized I didn't want to read about things like this on the other side of the world," said Floyd Mair. Also, her mother was ill with Parkinson's disease so, after 15 years of living in Japan, Floyd Mair came home.
She lives now in the Guilderland home where she grew up, which she shares with her father, her husband, and their daughter.
"I wanted to learn to write better myself," said Floyd Mair, having spent the bulk of her career editing others. In 2007, she began an eight-year stint as a freelance writer for the Albany Times Union, writing hundreds of author interviews, magazine articles, travel pieces, and commentaries. She also helped moderate a book club at the daily newspaper.
In 2015, she started her career at The Enterprise, first covering the villages of Altamont and Voorheesville and currently covering the town of Guilderland, winning several statewide awards for her work.
Referring to her 11-year-old daughter, Floyd Mair said, "Olivia calls me nosey. Being a journalist allows you to ask questions."
She also said of her life-long love of language, "Knowing a language is a way to find out about people, being able to see into their lives."
Towns can choose the effect solar farms will have on property taxes
New York State has put into place tax exemptions to encourage development of renewable energy, which played out last week in Duanesburg, a rural Schenectady County town, that granted payments in lieu of taxes, or PILOTs, for two solar farms.
Duanesburg adopts solar moratorium after already approving big projects
No matter where in the world she was, Lynne Bruning told The Enterprise, the farm in Duanesburg was always "such an anchor," she said, "to have grown up in the house where my mother's mother taught me how to sew and I would sleep under her mother's quilt."

Q: Pthreads - main thread and other thread In Pthreads, when we create multiple threads inside the main function, does all the created threads become a worker thread for the main thread? or each thread is a manager thread by itself?

A: When you create a thread, you can call it a "worker" if you want. The thread doesn't care how people think about it. It runs the same whether you call it a "worker", "manager", or "moose" for all it matters.

A:
when we create multiple threads inside the main function, does all the
  created threads become a worker thread for the main thread?

Worker/main thread designation is conceptual.
There's no Pthreads designated thread that manages all the other worker threads. Typically, main thread is used for that job. But nothing prevents you from choosing another thread to manage all the threads. Main thread can also participate in the the "work" as a worker.

each thread is a manager thread by itself?

A thread is an independent entity within a process. Usually, they all "co-ordinate" with each other to accomplish a common goal. But you can also have multiple groups of threads, with each group doing different tasks. So there doesn't necessarily  have to be a "manager thread". Because a thread can be completely independent  and exit (pthread_exit) without ever needing to communicate with others (e.g. Each thread sorting a separate file). Or the threads may co-ordinate with each other (e.g. matrix multiplication). Or they may be "managed" by a one thread (e.g. main thread "feeding" work to others in queue which will be worked on by other threads in a master/slaves manner).

Wonderful, makes you fall in love with Barry all over again
Romantic, beautiful
By Britt Britt!
I bought "If I Should Love Again" after Barry performed the cover song at one of his concerts. It is such a beautiful song, especially the piano section in the middle. "Old Songs," "Somewhere down the road," and "Fools get lucky" are also some of my favorite tunes of this album. Definitely a great gift for a Manilow fan! This is mushy-gushy, heartbreakingly-beautiful, "classic" Barry at his best.
The Love Album
By a song 4u
Ballads abound on this one, true Barry at his best; the Master of love songs. "The Old Songs" was a huge hit, it's a cover and Barry's version was the more popular, "Let's Hang On" was a hit overseas and Barry's treatment of this cover features his obligatory stacked vocal, "If I Should Love Again" is an amazing song but I like the alternate take on the boxed set, I feel that version has a more refined vocal and a bit of a bigger arrangement. "Somewhere Down The Road" was a huge hit and is similar in arrangement to "I Made It Through The Rain" released a year earlier and hails from the album "Barry" released in 1980. This cd was one of the Barry remasters in the late 90's utilizing 24-bit technology and the overall sound is good but a bit muted.
Manilow at the top of his game
Barry Manilow is known as the master of mushy love songs and that's okay because he's never afraid to go right to the heart. The material here while not as commercial as "Trying To Get The Feeling" or "Mandy" certainly stands on it's own as melodic and meaningful. It's not going to go over big with the rap and hard rock fans but Mr Manilow knows there are a lot of hopeful romantics out there and that's who buy his recordings. It's worth noting that he is a master when it comes to doing lush beautiful arrangements. The title song from the collection "If I Should Love Again" reminds me of one of my favorite Manilow songs "Could it Be Magic" a very Classical Music sound with a touch of "Gone With The Wind" flavor. Some might think it's a bit over the top but so is the whip cream on you favorite Sundae. The up tempo numbers also stand on their own "Let's Hang On" the Four Seasons classic allows Barry to have some fun with multi tracking and singing all the parts himself. He performs "You're Runnin' Too Hard" with just the right amount of Brooklyn Soul. This collection my not win Barry Manilow any new fans it's not very commercial sounding. It doesn't disappoint his existing fan base who like me treasure some of the album cuts and enjoy them even more than the hits. The album cuts are never just filler Manilow gives every song his all.

Xi Chin-ping: There is no superior civilization
There is no superior civilization, so transformation or complete substitution of some civilizations leads to catastrophic results – said Chinese President Xin Chin-ping at the opening ceremony of the Conference on Dialogue on Asian Civilizations (CDAC) on Wednesday in Beijing.
The Chinese President stated that culture and civilization are essential to global challenges, not less important than the economy and technology.
Asia has enriched mankind with irreplaceable creations in all areas of culture, and China has, among other things, contributed to innovations such as paper, gunpowder, compass, calendar and Chinese philosophy. He added that Chinese civilization has evolved through a continuous exchange of knowledge with other peoples of the world, and that Beijing will seek to contribute to the further development of civilizations with a more open attitude in the future.
According to the organizers, the conference will focus on the topics of exchange and knowledge exchange between Asian civilizations and the community of the future.
Participants include Prokopisz Pavlopulos Greek Head of State, Cambodian King Norodom Sambamoni, Singapore President Halimah Yacob and Indian Film Star of Amir Khani. In addition to the conference, thematic programs will be organized to promote cultural cooperation between Asian countries.
Keng Suang Foreign Affairs spokesman for the conference said at the beginning of the week that countries in the world should be guided by the principles of equality, exchange of knowledge, dialogue and acceptance between civilizations, while rejecting the misconception of "clash of civilizations" as well as of superior civilizations idea.
He referred to a statement made last month by the US Secretary of State for Policy Planning. As for the American-Chinese relations, Kiron Skinner referred to American political scientist Samuel Huntington's idea of a "clash of civilizations" that fundamental differences between civilizations are the source of conflict between them. The statement had already sharply opposed the Chinese side, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs considered that examining bilateral relations from this approach was "absurd and totally unacceptable".
Vang Ji-vej, professor of international affairs at the University of Xinjiang in Beijing, who announced the South China Morning Post Hong Kong newspaper, said that the conference had already been organized last year, but now it is also a good time for China to express its views on the debate on civilizations.
The professor emphasized that the unilateral policy of the Americans has a detrimental effect on the world and within it on the United States allies, so Washington is trying to "confront" civilizations with China in order to place its Western allies with it. He added that China is trying to establish closer cooperation with other countries in Asia through the common values of the current event.

How To Search By Date On Google
by A. Bera/ June 26, 2018/ Technology/
Google is the most trustworthy and reliable search engine which has gained huge popularity. Almost 80% people across the world make use of this search engine to get the best answer to their queries. While asking something to Google, it throws back numerous search results of good quality. While some of the results in the web pages carry a date this small information is eliminated from some other web page. However, the date stamp sometimes gets suppressed on the search result and is not shown on the web page. But the date is a great indication of the updated content. So, how to search by date on Google?
There are several ways to search by date on Google. We have discussed all of them. Keep reading the article to know those processes.
See Also: How to delete playlist in Google Play Music
Method 1: Advanced search
Advanced search is the best way to get updated content. This process lets you retrieve the updated content of some specific time. You have the option to choose the time frame. First, launch the Advanced search page from the settings. However, in order to quickly access, you can also bookmark this Advanced Search on your Bookmark. Next, you just need to enter the keyword, tap on the last update drop-down box and choose the time such as past 24 hours, past week, past month and Past year etc. It will retrieve the results of web pages which have been updated in last 24 hours or last week.
There is also an option to search by language, file type, region and usage rights.
Method 2: Any Time Tool
Another way to search by date on Google is to make use of the Google anytime tool. First, complete the search with the required keyword. Next, go to 'Tools' that is located just below the search bar and tap on Anytime. It is a drop-down menu from where you can pick any option such as past 24 hours, past week, past month and Past year etc. For example, if you select past 24 hours, it will retrieve all the web pages updated in last 24 hours with a publish date along with them.
You will see an option 'Custom range' in that same list which can be used in case you are looking to perform a search with a specific date range.
Method 3: Use Finitimus Chrome Extension
This is a very helpful handy browser add on which help you retrieve the date easily. But this Chrome extension can retrieve the date if it is already present in the source code or Meta data and Google has suppressed it for publication. So, install this add-on and then tap on Accuracy of a particular web page to see the published date.
Method 4: From the source code
This is a bit tricky than all other processes mentioned here anyway with the right guidance you can easily find out the date from its source code. The process will vary according to the browser. It is explained here.
If you are using Chrome then first perform a search, go to a specific web page and then right click on it to get the date.
Choose the option 'View page source' which will bring the source HTML in a new page.
Perform a search by pressing the Shift+F, right here Published and it will focus the published date within the meta tag.
Perform a search and right click on a specific web page to get the date.
Go to 'View Page Info'.
Scroll down to see the meta tag for the date. That's it.
So, this is how to search by date on Google. The processes are too simple and will allow you receiving fresh content easily.

We will be spending much of this week's meeting talking about the challenges from the CSAW Capture the Flag competition this past weekend.Thanks to everyone who came and participated! We had a great showing this year and ended up 26/301 among undergraduate teams from the US and Canada. Though we did not qualify for the finals this is the best showing the club has had in the competition and we are optimistic about future CTFs and CSAW in future semesters.
If anyone competed with us (or independently) and wants to present a problem, they are welcome to do so at the meeting. Similarly, if you have been playing a wargame and have solved a particularly interesting challenge, we welcome commentary on those challenges as well. We will be talking about additional opportunities to play wargames and capture-the-flag competitions this semester.
For future meetings, our goal is to spend the first 30 minutes or so after news talking about some interesting application or concept in a lecture-style format similar to Conor's talk last week. For the last 30 to 45 minutes we will have some hands-on offensive security instructables.
PS: I forgot to post this before the meeting, but want it to be present in the archive of past meetings. So it goes.

Since 2016 over one million Chinese civil servants have been ordered to spend a series of weeks visiting assigned Turkic Muslim "relatives." These mostly Han urbanites have been tasked with instructing Uyghur and Kazakh farmers in political ideology and subjecting them to tests of Chinese nationalism and Han cultural assimilation. When they occupy the homes of their Turkic "relatives" they assess whether or not they should be sent into the mass "reeducation" camp system. Drawing on ethnographic field research, interviews and state documents, this essay argues that the systematic normalization of state-directed violent paternalism has produced a new kind of banality in Turkic minority experiences of unfreedom.


Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif vowed that Iran would bring to justice the perpetrators and "their masters" of a terrorist attack that killed two policemen and wounded 43 others in the southeastern port city of Chabahar on Thursday.
On his Twitter account, Zarif accused "foreign-backed terrorists" for the car bomb in Sistan-Baluchestan Province.
Rahmdel Bameri, Chabahar's acting governor, said a bomb-filled vehicle was used to target a police station by a suicide attacker.
"Police stopped the explosive-laden car and started firing at the driver ... who then set off the explosion near the police headquarters in Chabahar," he said.
The Ansar al-Furqan terrorist group claimed responsibility for the assault.
He was apparently referring to an operation by Iranian intelligence services, which led to the capture in 2010 of Abdolmalek Rigi, the ringleader of the Jundullah terror group. The extremist outfit under Rigi was dismantled and he was executed later that year.
That operation followed a 2009 terror attack by extremist terrorists that claimed over 40 lives in Sistan-Baluchestan Province.
Sistan-and-Baluchestan – which borders Pakistan – has suffered several terror attacks targeting both civilians and security forces over the past years.
In a message, Vice President Es'haq Jahangiri said such terror attacks are intended to create a rift within the united ranks of Iranian people.
"Such terrorist acts, which are designed and adopted by enemies to divide the Iranian nation, are doomed to failure and will make us more decisive in our fight against terrorism," he said.
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) promised to give a "crushing" response to the attack.
In June, the IRGC said it had killed Ansar al-Furqan's suspected leader, Molavi Jalil Qanbar-Zehi, in a mountainous area of Sistan-Baluchestan.
A year ago the group claimed responsibility for a blast at an oil pipeline in southwestern Khuzestan Province.
Iranian Interior Minister Abdolreza Rahmani Fazli said the "savage attack" proved again that the "evil hegemonic system would spare no plot" to target the nation.
The US, the Israeli regime and "the terrorist governments in the region that support them" feel desperate and angry over the "shameful defeat" they have suffered in their attempts to strip the Iranian nation of their independence and freedom, he said.
That is why they have resorted to their stooges inside Iran in the hope of upsetting the country's stability, Fazli added.
The Indian Foreign Ministry also condemned Thursday's attack.
"We wish speedy recovery to those injured. The perpetrators behind this dastardly attack should be brought to justice expeditiously. There can be no justification for any act of terror," the ministry said.
UK Ambassador to Tehran Robert Macaire also posted a tweet and said he was "appalled" by the terrorist attack.
Kuwaiti Emir Sheikh Jaber al-Ahmad al-Sabah also sent a message to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani to decry the assault, offering condolences to the families of the martyrs.
The Qatari Foreign Ministry also condemned the attack.


A PIN-protected door lock prevents unauthorised removal of burned or blank CD/DVD media.
The "Total Disc Network Administrator" software ensures that only the media corresponding to the specified PIN number can be output from PP-100N Security. In the top security mode, employees need an electronic authorization by an approver in addition to the PIN code before they can burn media on the PP-100N Security.
The PP-100N Security's integrated logic can manage up to 80 jobs from several users using encryption,so that even if the device is stolen,no readable data will fall into the wrong hands.

When facing DUI charges, the first thing that you should do is hire the services of reputable DUI attorney. After all, if your considered guilty of DUI charges in court, you could lose your driver's license altogether. This could even put a hole in your employment plans in the future.
A lot of people simply won't be willing to hire employees with any form of criminal record in their past. Drunk driving seen as a type of criminal offense. It's one that could place a huge black mark onto your record for good.
If you are currently being charged with a DUI, your best bet would be to hire a DUI attorney. It would always be best to look for local attorneys to work with you since they will know exactly how the court works in your area. This will definitely come in handy by the time your DUI attorney starts getting your defense ready for court. Conversely, if your attorney of choice doesn't know the court or the Judge, then you could find yourself facing huge problems later on down the line.
Generally speaking, there are various complexities involved when dealing with DUI laws. Because of this, you will need to hire a DUI attorney who is up-to-date on the laws in this department. Make sure that the DUI attorney you are looking at has enough training in this department, and that they can adapt to changes and use them to their utmost advantage to help your case. If you hire an attorney who doesn't understand any of these aspects or simply doesn't work well with them, then you may have trouble fighting those charges for driving under the influence overall.
This is why DUI attorneys are always in high demand nowadays. After all, their experience will go a long way when fighting drunk driving cases in court. Check their reviews and get in touch with some of their former clients.
It would be important to note that DUI cases tend to differ from one to the next, though. There is no guarantee that a DUI attorney will work out for you just because they worked out for someone else. Search for a a DUI attorney in your state, city, or county who is smart and quick-thinking instead. Of course, you will also have to make sure that you can afford the attorney that you are looking at. Keep in mind that some attorneys may work for a single payment, while others may charge per hour. So, find out which payment method would suit your financial needs best and then go from there.

Nanette Salomons Cohen (after marriage, Nanette Pressburg; c 1764 – 1833) was a Dutch citizen known for being the maternal grandmother of Karl Marx, the socialist philosopher and economist.

Life
Nanette Salomons Cohen was born in 1764. Her parents were Salomon (1731–1804) and Sara Cohen-Chazzan (1736–1810) (sometimes called Barent-Cohen) in Amsterdam, the family belonging to Amsterdam's Jewish community. Her paternal grandfather was Barent Cohen, a wealthy merchant.

In 1785, Nanette Cohen married Isaac Heymans Pressburg (1747–1832) of Nijmegen.
The Pressburgs were a prosperous family, Isaac working as a textile merchant. They were leading members of Nijmegen's Jewish community, Isaac acting as cantor of the synagogue where his father, Hirschl (or Chaim) Pressburg, had been the rabbi. They initially lived in Nonnenstraat near the synagogue, before moving to a larger house on Grotestraat in 1808.

Nanette died in Nijmegen on April 7, 1833, at the age of 69, her husband having died the previous year.

Children and their legacy
Isaac and Nanette Pressburg had five children, three boys and two girls. The first, Hijam, was born on August 16, 1786; followed by Henriette on September 20, 1788; David on February 5 1791; Marcus Martin on November 22, 1793; and finally Sophie on November 15, 1797.

In 1814, Henriette married Hirschel (later Heinrich) Marx in the Nijmegen Synagogue, the couple moving to Heinrich's home town of Trier in the Rhineland, where Heinrich worked successfully as a lawyer. Their nine children included Karl Marx.

In 1820, Sophie married the tobacco merchant Lion Philips, moving to the Dutch town of Zaltbommel. After Nanette's death, Lion Philips acted as trustee for her legacy on behalf of the family. Karl Marx, their nephew, occasionally visited the Philips family, and regularly corresponded with Lion. Lion and Sophie's son  and grandson Gerard Philips founded the Philips Electronics Company in 1891.

Although both daughters and their immediate families converted from Judaism to Christianity – Henriette in 1825 and Sophie in 1826 – they remained in regular contact with their mother, one of Karl Marx's younger brothers being born in Nijmegen.

Of the Pressburgs' sons, David became a lawyer in Amsterdam and later in Paramaribo in Surinam, while Marcus remained in Nijmegen in the tobacco trade.

Carrie Lam keeps failing to defuse a crisis of her own making. Increasingly out of touch, she has become a liability as the economy suffers and China's anniversary approaches. It's getting harder to see how she will be the one to find a compromise that subdues violent protests.

Reuters: Hong Kong protests met with tear gas; China frees UK mission staffer
Beijing's Hong Kong hard line threatens everyone
Unrest is recurring cost of Hong Kong's stinginess
Hong Kong police on Aug. 25 used water cannons and tear gas in running battles with anti-government protesters, who threw bricks and petrol bombs.
Rail operator MTR suspended some services, but tens of thousands of protesters calling for democracy in the former British colony made it to a sports stadium in the vast container port of Kwai Chung, from where they marched to nearby Tsuen Wan.
At one point, a policeman fired a pistol shot into the air as a warning to protesters. Police said on Aug. 26 that 15 officers were injured and that they had arrested 29 men and seven women, aged 12 to 48, for unlawful assembly, possession of offensive weapons and assaulting police officers.
The clashes marked a return to unrest after days of calmer demonstrations. The protests, which started in June over a now-suspended extradition bill, have rocked Hong Kong for three months, occasionally causing serious disruption, including at the airport.


The increasing demand for the secure network to share data between maritime, airborne or land radio communications at high speed is expected to drive the tactical data link market. The increasing adoption of tactical data link in airborne platforms is also expected to fuel the market during the forecast period. However, stringent military standards and reduction in defense budget are some of the restraints in tactical data link market.
Based on application, the intelligence, surveillance, & reconnaissance segment is estimated to lead the tactical data link market in 2017. ISR helps in information gathering related to the enemy movements in the modern battlefield. This information is collected with the help of electronic sensors, and it helps enhance the decision making capability of the military personnel.
Based on platform, the air-based segment is estimated to dominate the tactical data link market in 2017. Increasing demand for rotary wing and fixed wing aircraft, and UAV is driving the segment. Emerging trends in military aircraft include the use of advanced tactical data link for situational awareness, attack, and command & control.
Based on component, the hardware segment is estimated to lead the tactical data link market in 2017. The major part of the tactical data link comprises of sensors, communication networks, and computer & interface hardware used for developing a holistic operational picture.
North America is estimated to lead the tactical data link market in 2017. Countries in this region include the US and Canada. The presence of some of the major market players, such as Northrop Grumman (US), Rockwell Collins (US), L3 Technologies (US), Raytheon (US), and ViaSat (US) and the enormous number of military aircraft deliveries in this region have contributed to the growth of the tactical data link market in North America.
Some of the key players in the tactical data link market include Leonardo (Italy), BAE Systems (UK), General Dynamics (US), Saab AB (Sweden), Tactical Communications Group (US), Harris Corporation (US), Leidos (US), Ultra Electronics, Thales Group (France), ProLogic (US), Cubic Corporation (US), Isihellas.com (Greece), ATLAS ELEKTRONIK GmbH (Germany), Wolfspeed™ (US), TERMA (Denmark), TELEFUNKEN RACOMS (Germany), FREQUENTIS AG (Austria), Iridium Communications (US), and LIG Nex1 (South Korea).
The study segments the tactical data link market based on application (intelligence, surveillance, & reconnaissance, radio communication, command and control, electronic warfare), platform (air-based, land-based, sea-based, weapon-based), and component (hardware, software), and maps these segments and subsegments across major regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and RoW (Rest of the World). The report provides in-depth market intelligence regarding market dynamics and major factors influencing the growth of the tactical data link market (drivers, restraints, opportunities, and industry-specific challenges), along with analyzing micromarkets with respect to individual growth trends, prospects, and their contribution to the tactical data link market.
From an insight perspective, the tactical data link market report focuses on various levels of analysis - industry analysis, market share analysis of top players, and company profiles, which together comprise and discuss basic views on competitive landscape, high-growth regions and countries, and their respective regulatory policies, drivers, restraints, and opportunities.

Q: Haskell: Reading expressions as Integers from ghci prompt? I am experimenting with some number theoretic functions, and dealing with large integers.  However, I'd like to be able to read an expression in from the prompt.  I have a function defined by
factor :: Integer -> Integer

and if I enter
ghci> factor 2047

it works fine.  But I can't enter
ghci> factor 2^11-1

because the expression 2^11-1 is not evaluated (at the prompt) to an Integer.  I can get round this with
ghci> factor (toInteger 2^11-1)

but I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically have expressions read as Integer values?

A: This has nothing to do with needing the expression "evaluated to an Integer value". Haskell evaluates any expression when it's needed, and as whichever type the environment demands.
Only, factor 2^11-1 is parsed as (factor 2)^11 - 1, which is evidently not what you want. (There exists no subexpression 2^11-1 in there!) But factor (2^11 - 1) or – somewhat preferred style – factor $ 2^11 - 1 will work just fine.
As a matter of fact, factor (toInteger 2^11-1) also does not what you seem to think: this is parsed as factor ((toInteger 2)^11 - 1). There's totally no need to write toInteger 2, instead of just 2†.
Short overview of Haskell parsing rules:

*

*Prefix function application always has precedence. Hence f x^y is parsed as (f x)^y, not as f (x^y).

*

*This works greedily from left to right. Thus, f x y is parsed as (f x) y‡, not f (x y).

*Infix operators are parsed according to their fixity, which you can for instance look up in GHCi with :i ^. For instance, infixr 8 ^ is higher than infixl 6 -, that's why 2^11-1 is parsed as (2^11) - 1 and not as 2 ^ (11-1).

*

*The l or r in the fixity indicates the direction if you chain multiple instances of the same operator. For instance, infixr 5 : means that 1:2:3:[] is parsed as 1:(2:(3:[])), not as ((1:2):3):[].

†Actually that's not always true. Literals like 2 are polymorphic, i.e. they can really be evaluated as whatever type you ask for. For instance, 2 * 3 + 4 * sin 5 :: Double will carry out all the operations as floating-point multiplication / addition. Whereas toInteger is in fact restricted so the result must always be an integer (and if you try to use it in a setting that expects a Double, this will actually be a compile-time error!), i.e. it is actually equivalent to (2 :: Integer).
‡Though that behaves, in many ways, more like what other languages would write as f(x,y). Which would also be legal in Haskell, if slightly unidiomatic. (Then f would actually not be a function of two arguments, but a function of a single argument which happens to be a tuple.)


It's taken me years to come to this realization. Real, genuine success is not about looking good for the moment (almost anyone can do that), but being great over the long haul. If I can use a portion of the definition for a triathlon to help you understand success, then it's about "completing continuous and sequential endurance disciplines" in order to reach your life goals.
In last week's blog post, I talked about the Pentagon working with Arizona State University to create a jetpack to enable soldiers to run faster, and how that ties into my Speedsuit Powers novels.
Now, I don't know if someone at DARPA or at Arizona State University has actually read my novel. However, considering that my protagonist, Curtis Powers creates a jet-powered suit that enables him to run at incredible speeds, it's not a stretch that perhaps someone has read the novel or watched my independent film adaptation, Speedsuit (or at least heard of them).
Today I want to share a quote about reaching your dreams and aspirations. It's from my book, MOVE! Your Destiny is Waiting on You.


I know my idea is not really a sensor but as I have quite a few sensor nodes deployed I wanted to make it easy and reuse the framework.
My challenge and I am a bit out of ideas is, I want to build a kind of remote control with multiple push buttons, in theory I have digital pins 2-7 available. This would be ok. However as it should be battery powered, I wanted to put it to sleep. But then a wake-up only works on D2/D3.
Shift registers also do not seem to work, at least what I found out as it would not send the interrupt correctly to wake it up.
The best I came up so far: motion sensor to wake it up and then go to sleep again after a certain time. But then it needs to be picked up and cannot be used when it is laying on a table.
would it work, if I have the push buttons in series with some resistors on an analog input (to read which button was pressed, different values, based on resistance) and connect it in parallel to digital D2 to send the interrupt?

"A quick connection between trains was by accident, not intent."
Posted in Memory by Andy Hall on August 1, 2013
An 1864 stock certificate for shares in the Richmond & York River Railroad Co., one of the five roads that converged at Richmond. From Dave Bright's incomparable Confederate Railroads website.
The first chapters of Carl Park's Ironclad Down: USS Merrimack-CSS Virginia from Design to Destruction set the historical context for the design, construction and deployment of that most famous Confederate ironclad, C.S.S. Virginia. Park summarizes the evolving technology of shell-firing naval artillery, screw propulsion, U.S. naval policy, and the early careers of men like Stephen Mallory, John Luke Porter, and John Mercer Brooke, before getting into the real heart of the book, which is the fine, granular detail of the ironclad's construction. I may talk more about that later, but for now I want to highlight something that caught me a little by surprise.
In Chapter 10, "The Long Road to Portsmouth," Park discusses the logistical challenges present in moving the iron plate armor for C.S.S. Virginia from the Tredegar Ironworks in Richmond, where it was rolled, to the (formerly U.S., now Confederate) navy yard at Gosport, where Virginia was being fitted out. In the process, he mentions an aspect of Richmond's position as a railroad hub that had substantial implications for the large-scale movement of men and materiel through the city and the region that would see almost non-stop campaigning and fighting between two major armies for four long years:
In 1861, five railroads came into Richmond — almost. To protect their interests, the city drayage companies in Virginia lobbied the state legislature to pass a protective tariff. In the Old Dominion, it was against the law for a railroad to have tracks on any city streets without the elected city authorities' permission, and permission was never given if it meant that two lines could meet. All of the railroad tracks of one line came to an abrupt stop a mile or so from any connecting line. Without liverymen, there could be no cross-town traffic for passengers or freight. The Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac railroad came in from the north down Broad Street to Fifth Street, which was within about half a mile of the Virginia Central, which also came in from the north as it followed Shockoe Creek to Broad and Seventeenth streets. The Richmond & York River came in from the east and terminated on the east side of town between Rocketts and Chimorazo Hill. The Richmond & Danville came from the west, followed the south bank of the James, and then crossed the river to the depot at Mayo's Bridge and Fifteenth Street. The Richmond & Petersburg came from the south and crossed the James to the depot at Eighth and Bird Streets. The Tredegar Iron Works was within a quarter of a mile of the Iron Richmond & Petersburg tracks.
A Virginia Central train coming into Richmond with a passenger bound for Norfolk would off-load at the Seventeenth and Broad Streets Depot. From there, the passenger would take a carriage to the Richmond & Petersburg Depot, if a train was leaving that day or, if not, to a hotel to stay overnight and catch a train out the next day. This process would be repeated at every major rail juncture. For freight headed for Norfolk, the process was agonizingly slow. A freight train unloaded its cargo north of the station in Richmond onto a platform or onto the ground. There, sometime during that or the next day, a work gang of slaves loaded the shipment into a wagon or wagons that took it across town to the Richmond & Petersburg freight area, where more slaves would unload it and put it by the tracks. On that day or the next, more slaves loaded it onto a train, where it would travel to Petersburg. At Petersburg this agonizing process of off-loading, loading, off-loading, and loading again was repeated because trains were not allowed to pass through Petersburg either. Railroads were independent fiefdoms that had no interest in any other line's schedules; a quick connection between trains was by accident, not intent. . . .
The next monument to poor planning was rail design and track gauges. Three different gauges (distance between rails) were in use in the Confederacy: 4 feet, 8½ inches, which eventually became the national standard, 5 feet, and 5 feet, 6 inches. The railroads coming into Richmond were 4 feet, 8½ inches, with the exception of the Richmond and Danville, which was 5 feet. This variance in gauges didn't cause as much confusion as you might suppose. In states where the lines of different companies using the same gauge actually connected, the management of one company would not allow its passenger or freight cars to run on the tracks of another line. So although cars of one line could run on the tracks of other lines, the practice of loading and unloading cars at railheads remained a standard, labor-intensive, and time-consuming procedure. In peacetime this lidiculous process was tolerable, but in time of war it became another nail in the Confederate coffin. [1]
To illustrate this problem, Park includes a well-known map of Richmond, dated 1864 and published as part of the atlas accompanying the Official Records, but actually drawing on antebellum, civilian maps as its source material. I'd looked at this map many, many times, and even made note of the different rail lines and depots, but never thought about its significance in terms of military logistics. Here's the map from the OR, showing the location of the terminals for four of the five railroads reaching Richmond:
A fifth rail line, the Richmond & York River Railroad, came to an end southeast of town, between the base Chimborazo Hill and Rocketts. All the space in between the depots had to covered on foot, by carriage, or (in the case of cargo) by drays, all of which added time, inconvenience and expense — especially when you remember that everything in Richmond is uphill from everything else.
To be sure, situations like this were hardly limited to Richmond or the South. Railroads construction across the United States was a free-for-all in the decades before the war, with little standardization, and few incentives for railroad builders to find ways to interlock their roads. The primary only rail hub in Texas, Houston, was the terminus of five roads, all with their own depots and freight yards, running on at least two different gauges. It was a bigger problem for the Confederacy, of course, because the South lacked the industrial resources to expand its railroads quickly. Tredegar had enough trouble supplying armor and guns for ships like Virginia, let alone rolling out miles and miles of new, iron rail.
It's also to the credit of Richmonders that they recognized this rail transfer problem early on, and took some measures to correct it. Just days after the fall of Fort Sumter in Charleston, the Richmond City Council voted to authorize the state to construct rail connections through the city streets to link different roads, "to be used only for the purposes of the State, or of the Confederate States, during the war, and to he removed when no longer required for these purposes." Good progress was reported almost immediately, but at some point work stalled, to be picked up again in fits and starts through the remainder of the war. Most of the terminals remained isolated, leading to bizarre spectacles like this one from March 1862, with a steam locomotive being hauled through the streets by both mules and curious bystanders:
Moving Under Difficulties. – A locomotive, of large size, brought to Richmond from Mr. Allan's plantation (Claremont) on James river, was moved yesterday to the depot of the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad. It was mounted upon stout wheels, and in the absence of steam, some thirty mules and horses were attached; but even with this power, it was found no easy matter to haul the iron monster to its destination. Near the corner of Main and 13th streets, the traces parted, and a dozen mules shot gaily forward, relieved of their burden, while the majority, with the locomotive, stuck fast to the pavement. An immense crowd assembled, and the incident afforded considerable excitement for an hour or two. At length the team was properly hitched up again, but the combined horse and mule power, with the whips and "hi hi's" of the drivers, availed nothing. It was an uphill business. Finally a strong rope was procured, and made fast to the ponderous vehicle, and some two hundred of the bystanders took their places in the line to aid the quadrupeds in their labor. The experiment succeeded. With a long pull and a strong pull, and amid vociferous shouting, the work was successfully accomplished and the locomotive to the depot on Broad street. [2]
Allen's locomotive ended up being dragged through the heart of Richmond's commercial district, close by the Capitol; I wonder if the sight caused any Commonwealth or Confederate legislators to push harder for completion of the rail connections.
It seems that, for all their recognition of the problem and intentions on fixing it early on, Richmond's success in linking its rail depots was limited. A map of Richmond (available here) dated 1867 but almost probably surveyed in mid- to late 1865, shows that only two railroads — the Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac, coming into town from the northwest, and the Richmond & Petersburg, coming up from the south — were eventually connected via 8th Street. A second line from the R.F. & P. depot ran east a short distance along Broad Street toward the Central Railroad depot on the east side of town, but never made it past the Capitol.
Richmond city plan, drawn by U.S. military engineers shortly after the war, showing (red) additional lines of track laid to connect the Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac Railroad depot (upper left), and the Richmond & Petersburg depot, lower left. Map from Civil War Richmond. The total length of new street rail laid appears to be only about two-thirds of a mile.
You can't read much about the conflict of 1861-65 without getting a heavy dose of life in wartime Richmond, and one quickly comes to understand how it's been rightfully called "one of the most heavily networked cities in the Confederacy." [3] Nonetheless, its easy to forget how the little things in peacetime — like, say, an accommodation to the protectionist lobbying of draymen and carriage hacks, looking to maintain a demand for their trade — can complicate life tremendously during the stress of war.
And what I wouldn't give tohave seen that big steam locomotive dragged through the streets of the Confederate capital by men and mules, for want of a mile or so of decent track.

Plus les choses changent, plus elles restent les mêmes.
I, too, would give just about anything to see a big old steam locomotive being moved through a city, uphill, by men and mules.
Obviously, the Confederacy didn't have very adept lobbyists, otherwise one representing an interest that would have benefited from the rail lines being connected no doubt would have taken that opportunity to have arranged a stroll for a handful of powerful officials that just happened to pass southeast of the capitol, thereby enabling the officials to witness the spectacle.
Bob Huddleston said, on August 2, 2013 at 10:47 am
This was quite common in mid-century. "Union Stations" were developed later as a response. Remember the attack on the 6th Massachusetts in Baltimore was caused by the lack of connecting lines across the city.

Excellent observation, thanks.
Marcello said, on August 2, 2013 at 3:09 pm
Railroads were not particulalry gung-ho about linking up with each other, among the others things they feared they would lose control of the rolling stock.
Foxessa said, on August 2, 2013 at 3:09 pm
This state of southern railroads contributed significantly as well to the failure of the Produce Loan Agency — one of the several increasingly desperate attempts to finance the CSA and the war — supervised by J D. B. De Bow (who managed very well financially throughout the war and after, even increasing his personal wealth, partly by not participating in the CSA financing programs himself). He was to purchase on behalf of the government from plantation owners in the west the staples, which would float loans from Europe. It didn't work for many reasons — including the successful Union blockade, but it particularly couldn't work because there was little or no rail connection between these different parts.
Most of all it is notable that De Bow, who was so much an architect of secession and the war, soon was privately convinced there was no opportunity the confederacy could win the war. It was even more under-capitalized than the War of 1812, conducted by Madison's administration against Britain. De Bow saw this, but wouldn't say so publicly. He was the spirit of Boosterism!
Andy Hall said, on August 2, 2013 at 3:14 pm
If any of the architects of secession and war would figure out a way to come out ahead, if would be De Bow.
Bob Nelson said, on August 2, 2013 at 5:34 pm
Great piece, Andy. Thanks for posting. IMO, one of the best things the Union did, which helped win the war, was to federalize the railroads and put Herman Haupt in charge of them.
Of course, that gives me an excuse to repost this gem:
Craig Swain said, on August 3, 2013 at 2:30 pm
Andy, great piece. As I wade through the CS Citizens Files, I often find transactions where Richmond businesses (mostly Tredegar) were contracted to handle the transfers between railroads in Richmond. Particularly the heavy guns.
One additional transportation link I wold add is the James River Canal. Bellona foundry upstream of Richmond often floated their heavy guns down on the canal, where Tredegar offloaded them. The guns were then moved to the appropriate railroad depot and forwarded to the appropriate military post. All of that handling was "billable" and Tredegar did bill!
David Bright said, on August 17, 2013 at 7:28 am
I'd love to know the name of the Allen locomotive and where it served after its famous trip.


Thanks to Judy for the link. This is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen.

What was supposed to be a simple visit in a Decathlon Singapore Lab to shop and walk around ended up with an accident, a man shivering in agonizing pain and his nose bleeding?
40-year old Mr. Michael Kwok was allegedly hit by a stray golf ball on his nose at the sports shop in Kallang around 10:30 PM last Friday.
A Dangerous Incident
Mr. Kwok told Asiaone, "My friend and I were near the basketball section when all of a sudden, something hit my face."
"I had no idea what it was but all (I felt) was a sharp pain. It was so excruciating that I just lost my balance and collapsed (on the ground).
"The impact felt so great. My whole face was in so much pain that I didn't even notice I was bleeding until my friend told me."
Mr. Kwok, an engineer, thought that a golf ball hit his nose according to someone around him at that time.
He also said, "I overheard a staff member saying it was a golf ball that hit me. It makes sense because what could be so small yet hard enough to (cause such an) injury? I doubt it was a ping pong ball."
Bystanders to the Rescue
In the middle of the incident, someone is so kind as to call for an ambulance and others are promptly attending to him.
"The people around me were so kind. One of the shoppers said she is a trained nurse and checked my vitals, and someone else also put a blanket on me because I was shivering so much" said Mr. Kwok.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force also noted that they got a call for aid at 230 Stadium Boulevard, the site of Decathlon Singapore Lab – and also took one person to Singapore General Hospital.
Investigations Are Rolling
A spokesperson for the police also said that a formal report was in and investigations about the incident are ongoing.
Mr. Kwok was told in the hospital that he had suffered a fracture in the bone in the nasal bridge.
"My nose is crooked. And I can't do anything about it now because the swelling needs to subside before any re-alignment (can be done)," he said, adding that he now eats with difficulty because of the pain.
"I still do not know who was responsible for hitting the golf ball. I was pretty far away from the golf (testing area) when it happened – maybe about 20m."
It Could Have Been Worse
Even though the experience was excruciating, he felt very lucky that it could have been worse.
"I think I am lucky that the ball did not hit my eye. If it did, I might (have been) blinded.
"I also am thankful that my three kids were not with me (when it happened).
"We usually go to Decathlon together, but that night, they were with my in-laws. I can't imagine what would happen if they had got injured instead of me."
According to the spokesman for Decathlon Singapore, "We are extremely sorry for the accident that Mr. Kwok experienced at the Decathlon Singapore Lab.
The Test Zone Was Closed
"We treat all our customers as friends and our customers' safety is of utmost priority to us. We are investigating this incident and analyzing the footage captured on our in-store CCTV (closed-circuit television)."
The spokesperson also added that the company has sent regards to Mr. Kwok and decided to close the golf test zone at Decathlon Singapore Lab in Kallang.
"While our test stations have prominently displayed precautionary signage, we are now actively reassessing our testing stations and are committed to preventing a similar situation from happening in the future," added the spokesman.
Sports equipment can be dangerous if left unattended but there is nothing more thrilling than watching your favorite sport while earning money. There are many sportsbooks that you can choose from for your online casino to achieve that.

Mojito Drink Recipe
Highball glass
Clear (no colour)
1 1/3 oz. Rum, light
Fill with Carbonated Water/Club Soda
1 oz. Lime Juice
2 wedges Lime
12 pieces (leaves) Mint
1 1/2 oz. Sugar Syrup
Gently muddle the lime juice, mint leaves, and sugar syrup together at the bottom of the glass. Fill the glass with ice, then slowly add the rum. Fill with soda and stir gently to bring the leaves upwards into the mixture. Optionally add lime wedges as an addition garnish.
The Mojito
The mojito is a traditional Cuban alcoholic drink that may date as far back as the 17th century. It is one of the most famous rum based highballs and has enjoyed tremendous popularity in the last several years, partly due to the efforts of Bacardi in reviving the popularity of it through new products and advertisements.
Although contested, many attribute the modern mojito to have been invented at La Bodeguita del Medio in Havana, Cuba. The author Ernest Hemingway has been permanently associated to the Mojito as he frequently drank them at this hotel, and inscribed "Mi mojito en la Bodeguita" on the wall of the bar, where it has been saved and can still be viewed today.
The traditional mojito is made from five ingredients - rum, lime, sparkling water (club soda), mint and sugar. The mint is muddled with the lime juice and sugar (either cane or powdered) and sometimes the lime wedges as well. The rum is added and mixed with club soda, and stirred gently to lift the muddled items for presentation. Some areas of Cuba add a dash of Angostura bitters as well.
Many variations of the mojito are becoming more popular with fruit flavored rums or vodkas being substituted for the classic Cuban or light rum.
Here are some tips to help you make a great mojito.
Most people do not add the mint stems to the drink. If muddled or bruised, they can give off a very bitter taste. However, at the La Bodeguita del Medio, they add two mint stalks (stems and all) as well as the club soda to the glass before muddling, so there is a lot of confusion as to whether using the stalks is "correct" or not. Depending on the species of mint you are using, you may need to experiment.
Make sure you squeeze the lime wedges into the glass before muddling everything.
Try the recipe with a few drops of Angostura Bitters!
As a variation, some people use ginger ale instead of soda water.
If mint and lime isn't your thing, see all our other mojito variations.

I can't really drink Rum or Gin anymore but loooove me some Mojitos! Recently, I've been making them with Tyku sake (got the idea from another cocktail site) and they are to die for!! So refreshing and tasty. I'm going to try it with this recipe!
By Jessi Marie on January 17th, 2010 at 13:21:21
its very rare or your everyday bar to have mint leaves, though they should!!! makes the drink quite perrty!!
By Monkey Justice on September 28th, 2009 at 20:26:32
@Craig - 2 leaves was a typo. It was meant to be 12.
By Craig on September 11th, 2009 at 22:58:34
"2 leaves" of mint has to be a mistake. Maybe two sprigs, about 10-12 leaves! The lime juice should be from Key (Mexican) limes, preferably not common Persian limes; if you use key lime, you can use a little less juice as it's more sour and flavorful. The trick always is to balance the sweet and the sour, which takes practice and depends on the consistency of your lime juice and your simple syrup. For a real treat, use San Pellegrino as the club soda!
By Diego on August 2nd, 2009 at 10:40:20
This is how they do it in La boteguida del medio, in la Havana, Cuba:
high ball glass
pour 1 oz fresh lime juice, a 2 teaspoons of white sugar, add a splash of soda water, stir, add a hand full of mint sprigs (they use hierba buena, which is quite similar but more bitter), muddle with a round wooden muddler gently, not more that 5 hits, add ice cubes to top, pour 2 and half ounces of havana club 3anos, top with soda water, stir...
enjoy... you may wanna try to add a few drops of angostura too !
By Repo Jr. on July 5th, 2009 at 15:12:38
Bacardi has mixers that are good. just mix in carb water, rum and mint leaves to garnish.

By bigboyinbroward1980 on March 28th, 2009 at 19:02:22
Yes this is how its done properly, with sugar syrup......Dave M, thats my boy lol
By Hitzy on December 8th, 2008 at 08:52:47
The best way i find of making a mojito is the following.
To a 14oz glass add one like wedge and caster sugar or two sachets of white sugar. Squeeze half a fresh lime. Add a handfull of mint(anything from 4-12 fresh mint leaves) and add crushed ice to the top of glass. Pour in 50ml of bacardi rum and stir all ingredients gently with a spoon to make all flavours blend together and the sugar dissolves as much as possible. Top up glass with more crushed ice and add soda water. Release the mint leaves oils using straws. To do so poke the leaves with straws. Have a sampel to see if the mojito is ready. Once done serve with two straws (one straight one bent) and add 2 mint leaves like in the picture, but first giving them a few slaps on the hand to release some oils and let the aroma hit your nose as you drink the mojito. Enjoy!

Mojitos are a great summer drink. Adjust the amount of sugar syrup to your taste... 2 oz. can be too sweet for some, and not enough for others.
