EUdict (European dictionary) is a collection of online dictionaries for the languages spoken mostly in Europe. These dictionaries are the result of the work of many authors who worked very hard and finally offered their product free of charge on the internet thus making it easier to all of us to communicate with each other. Some of the dictionaries have only a few thousand words, others have more than 320,000. Some of the words may be incorrectly translated or mistyped.
Esperanto is only partially translated. Please help us improve this site by translating its interface.

There are several ways to use this dictionary. The most common way is by word input (you must know which language the word is in) but you can also use your browser's search box and bookmarklets (or favelets).
Look at the complete list of languages: Available language pairs
There are two Japanese-English (and Japanese-French) dictionaries and one contains Kanji and Kana (Kana in English and French pair due to improved searching). For the same reason the Chinese dictionary contains traditional and simplified Chinese terms on one side and Pinyin and English terms on the other.
Perhaps the best way to enable dictionary search is through integration into the search field of your browser. To add EUdict alongside Google, Yahoo!, Amazon and other search engines in Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer, simply click on link after the title Browser integration, select appropriate language pair and confirm your decision.

NEW YORK — California Chrome is the 3-5 early favorite to win the Belmont Stakes and become horse racing's 12th Triple Crown champion.
The Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner will break from the No. 2 post under Victor Espinoza on Saturday at Belmont Park. Eleven Belmont winners have come out of that post, the last being Tabasco Cat in 1994.
Wicked Strong was the 6-1 second choice and drew post No. 9 on Wednesday. The colt finished fourth after an unlucky trip in the Derby and sat out the Preakness.
Tonalist was made the third betting choice at 8-1 odds and will break from the No. 11 post.
Eleven horses were entered to take on California Chrome in his bid to win the Triple Crown for the first time since Affirmed swept the Derby, Preakness and Belmont in 1978.

An orchestral and emotional concept album sang completely in Portuguese that will take you to the year of the horror when a giant earthquake destroyed the city of Lisbon.
The year of 1755 marks the year of the horror when a giant earthquake destroyed the city of Lisbon, when almost 100 thousand souls lost their lives, and this tragic event is still considered one of the most disastrous catastrophes in European history and nature. Now in 2017, in remembrance of the victims and the band's hometown, the 1755 Lisbon earthquake was turned into a vicious, rip-roaring concept album straightforwardly titled 1755, the twelfth full-length studio release by Portuguese Dark Metal masters Moonspell, an orchestral and emotional adventure sang completely in Portuguese (which gives the whole album an additional poetic touch) that will transport your mind and soul to November 1, 1755, the holy day of All Saints' Day and the day that the earth shook like never before in Lisbon.
There are a few remarkable differences between 1755 and Moonspell's latest releases such as Night Eternal, Alpha Noir/Omega White and especially Extinct, as the band "distanced" themselves a little from the more Gothic and melodic approach from the past decade to venture through the realms of symphonic and epic sounds, and the final result couldn't be more breathtaking. Featuring a lavish artwork by Portuguese artist João Diogo (Dramafall), 1755 might not be an easy listen at first for newcomers to the world of Moonspell or even to longtime fans of the band who don't know a single word in Portuguese, but the final result is so compelling, sharp and cohesive I'm sure the whole album will grow on you until it becomes a mandatory part of your day-to-day playlist.
When I first saw the tracklist for 1755 I asked myself why they added one of their old songs as the opening track of the album, but after hitting play everything made sense. Em Nome Do Medo (or "in the name of fear") is an obscure, haunting and absolutely awesome orchestral version for their biggest classic sung in Portuguese, from their 2012 album Alpha Noir/Omega White (take a listen at the original version HERE), with highlights to the superb job done by guest musician Jon Phipps (who actually created the orchestrations for the whole album) and the insanely beautiful choir (comprised of the amazing Crystal Mountain Singers and Tristania's own Mariangela Dermutas) that accompanies frontman Fernando Ribeiro and his piercing vocals, and that epic aura of darkness goes on in the title-track 1755, where keyboardist Pedro Paixão delivers as usual some insane keys that complement the guitar sounds flawlessly. And what to say about Ricardo Amorim's souful guitar solo? Put differently, I simply can't wait to witness Moonspell playing this metallic opera live. And leaning towards a more metallic, rockin' vein we have the threatening In Tremor Dei (or "fear Of God"), presenting the band's characteristic Dark Metal with Fernando being beautifully supported by guest vocalist Paulo Bragança (who supplies the trenchant voice of a Fado fallen angel who is a big part of the Portuguese culture), with the song's lyrics perfectly depicting the fire, wreckage, despair and death that took over Lisbon that day.
Desastre (the Portuguese word for "disaster") gets closer to what the band did in Night Eternal, with Fernando's growls sounding deeper and more enraged as he screams the word "culpado" (or "guilty" in English) with all his fury. Furthermore, the beats by drummer Miguel Gaspar will hit you hard inside your mind, showing how acute the entire album is. Then orchestral elements shine in another great display of Dark Metal blended with classical music titled Abanão (which means "quake" or "shakeup"), where Pedro once again boosts the song's epicness with his keyboards while Miguel and bassist Aires Pereira live up to the song's name with their rumbling beats and bass punches, respectively; followed by Evento (or "event"), where Moonspell keep blending their own sonority from Night Eternal with Memorial and more intense elements from orchestral music, not to mention how its lyrics showcase the thin line between love and hate people experience with religion. It's another one of the top moments of the album, and needless to say it should also sound fantastic if played live. And 1 De Novembro (or "1st of November"), in reference to the day the earthquake happened, brings forward a more contemporary version of Moonspell where Fernando's voice sounds considerably different than usual and where tons of heaviness and epicness arise due to the excellent job done by Pedro and Miguel on keys and drums.
Then infused with modern Gothic and Dark Metal similar to what they did in the darkest and most melancholic tracks of Alpha Noir/Omega White, but with an epic twist, Ruínas (or "ruins") displays an 80's-inspired rhythm where the bass lines by Aires sound ominous, with its lyrics passionately declaimed by Fernando transmitting a true sense of hopelessness, setting the tone for Todos Os Santos (or "all saints"), one of the strongest tracks of the album and the musical depiction of the eternal war between men and God. Its thrilling guitars combined with the powerful vocals by Fernando and its thunderous backing vocals result in top-notch Moonspell music, also presenting a catchy-as-hell chorus (even if you don't know anything in Potuguese) in a beyond perfect closing to such sad and important event in the history of Portugal. As a matter of fact, there's still one more song in the regular version of the album, their cover version for Brazilian rock band Os Paralamas do Sucesso's hit Lanterna Dos Afogados (listen to the original song HERE), feeling more like a "bonus" than a regular track and sounding very somber, melancholic and touching, with Fernando giving a lesson in dark vocals. Moreover, if you go with any of the special editions of 1755, you'll also be treated to the Spanish version of Desastre, which according to Moonspell themselves is a homage to all their Spanish-speaking fans around the world, as in the late 18th century a mixture of Spanish and Portuguese was spoken in the streets of Lisbon.
What Moonspell did in 1755, turning all devastation, death and grief from the 1755 Lisbon earthquake into first-class art, is not only terrific musically speaking, but it also proves that the human being is capable of finding beauty even in the most adverse moments, and I guess that's some sort of subliminal message the band wanted to send us all with this excellent album. With that said, go grab your favorite version of 1755 at the Napalm Records webshop, or at the band's own BandCamp page or official European webstore, and learn more about one of the saddest and most terrifying day in the history of Portugal. 1755 might be known as the year of the horror, as the year when God abandoned the people of Lisbon, but at least we have Moonspell to properly tell that grim story to us all and to soothe our hearts and souls forevermore with their undisputed Dark Metal.

The religious organization that I was raised in, is known by many, for its fundamental and legalistic standards. From the moment that I chose to follow-Jesus, until the day that I chose to leave the organization, I was presented with a list of expectations that I was required to observe without fail. The "to-do (and to-'not'-do) list" covered many areas of life. Included on the list were topics like entertainment, friendships, dating, conversation, and the most scrutinized of all, Christian attire. To make it brief, women were required to wear long dress, no make-up, no jewelry, and could never cut their hair. Men were never allowed to wear shorts, and they were expected to attend church wearing their Sunday best. As a church musician, I knew better than to show up at church in anything less than slacks, a collared shirt, and a tie. If I failed to meet this expectation, it was probable that I would not be allowed to be part of the worship team for an extended period of time. On one occasion, after receiving a crew-cut that my pastor disapproved of, I was told that I was not allowed behind the piano until my hair grew back. Needless to say, I eventually grew tired of this oppression, and at the age of twenty-one I elected to walk away. Instead I chose to pursue a relationship with Jesus and find a spiritual community outside of this unnecessary yoke.
Although I left the church, I did not hold on to grudges or hard feelings. On the contrary, I am grateful for the discipline and spiritual fortitude that it instilled in me. I am also appreciative for the friendships that were created within the four walls of this institution. I still consider many, of the people that I met there, to be some of my best friends. Nevertheless, I am beyond grateful for the spiritual and emotional freedom that I have experienced since leaving.
As the years have passed, I've noticed some progressive changes in that organization. The list of rules, once deemed to have come straight from the voice of God, are no longer as exhaustive as they once were. Although I have no desire to return, I have celebrated their movement towards grace and love. However, not all who have been part of this religious atmosphere, carry the same sentiment.
A few years back, as I scrolled through my Facebook feed, I ran across a picture of a young youth pastor, from this organization. The picture showed a very energetic, and enthusiastic young man, preaching his heart out to a group of teens. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary. In fact, the picture caused me to smile…. so I did what I usually do with all pictures that make me smile. I gave it a like, closed my computer, and called it a night.
The following day, I kept noticing this picture, showing up in my news feed. At first, I assumed that the picture was getting flooded with "likes." However, after taking another glance I realized that this gentleman's entire comment section had been hijacked by two ladies that did not approve of his choice to wear an "Angry Birds" t-shirt. One of them was an elderly lady, whose father at one time had been a pastor of that church. Her reaction was no surprise to me. Unfortunately, it is common for someone with her legalistic heritage to have that type of reaction. However, the other lady didn't fit the stereo type of someone who would have such a meltdown. This person was not someone who embraced the traditions of her upbringing. On the contrary, she was a person who had rebelled against the teaching of the church years earlier. In fact, during that specific time in her life, she made several choices that would have made any priest in a confessional booth blush from the content being shared. The choices that she made, caused me cringe to in disbelief. What seemed like a brief mid-life crisis became a rapid downward spiral. Sadly, in spite of her own pile of painful choices, she went on to tear this young preacher apart, publicly, over his choice of attire.
The young preacher eventually caught on to what was happening and blocked the ladies from commenting any further. Nevertheless, the second lady managed to get a hold of his picture and posted it on her own wall. In her post she proclaimed her perceived godlessness of preachers that wear such attire behind the pulpit.
My initial reaction was nausea… then the nausea was followed by deep sorrow…. My heart hurt for this young man. I'm almost sure that he was completely blind-sighted by the backlash caused by his shirt. I'm positive that all he wanted to do was share the gospel. Instead, he was tar and feathered by two bitter crows.
….. I hadn't thought about this situation, or the second lady, for quite some time. In fact, she gave me the social media ax shortly after the "Angry Birds" fiasco. I tend to be quite passionate about racial reconciliation, she didn't approve of my stance, she flipped me the bird, and went on her merry way. I was quite surprised when I ran into a comment that she made on a mutual friend's post last week. It's almost as if Lazarus had come back from the dead…. Except, I'm sure that those with Lazarus celebrated his resurrection.
Not surprisingly, she was back, bickering with others about their political stances. As usual, she was trying to leverage the bible to defend the stance which she believes to be correct. I scrolled down, reading in horror, as she pronounced eternal judgement over anyone who disagreed with President Trump. The post, which did not regard any particular policy, simply pointed out the current POTUS overuse of Twitter. However, she must have equated the sharing of this post, to blasphemy. Because she went completely primal as she angrily used her keyboard as a weapon of mass destruction.
Her dialogue denounced all Christians who spoke evil of the POTUS. She went on to condemn the existence of anyone who is not committed to pray for him or that chose to speak evil of him. She argued that anyone who dares to share an opposing view is under demonic influence… Although I'm familiar with her tactics, what followed shocked me. Half-way through the comment feed, I saw her tearing into her younger sister, who holds an opposing political view, with judgmental and aggressive vocabulary. She did all in her power to belittle her all for "the glory of God" (insert sarcasm here)…… Knowing her history, I couldn't help but chuckle when I saw her share her childish behavior. Truthfully, I burst at the seams in laughter…. because after all, I never act like her, "do I?"
Sadly, my initial judgement seat caused me to turn around and take a good look at myself in the mirror….. Perhaps I don't judge people for wearing Angry Bird t-shirts when they preach… However, if I am being honest, there are many times I have judged people for lesser things. Perhaps I don't voice them publicly… But in the corner of my heart, I'm guilty of passing judgement on others, placing a red letter "A" on them, and keeping my distance. Truthfully, I'm just as guilty of being a jerk as this lady is…. Truthfully, I know that it isn't right. Truthfully, I know that I need to change.
With all that said…. Here's what I'm doing about it.
- I'm making a commitment to take ownership of my convictions.
I've come to recognize that my beliefs are mine. I also recognize that it is ridiculous to try to force anyone to embrace my beliefs…. In fact, it's not my responsibility. Jesus told his disciples that they would be his witnesses when his spirit came upon them, and "a witness" is exactly what I'm choosing to be. Any attempt to try and be God's attorney is pointless. "Why?", you might ask. Simply because he never asked that of me (or anyone else to be exact).
Recently I made a decision to put an end to the political comments that I was making on social media. As I reflected on my previous attempts to influence others, I realized that nothing I said ever impacted anyone. On the contrary, they caused the wrath of Satan to arise in many. Come to think of it, my political views are way to progressive for the left or the right. There really isn't a place for me to fit in. So, instead of trying to force my beliefs on others. I'm choosing to live out the Kingdom of God as best as I know how to.
- I'm making a commitment to make a difference.
I am a person who values life… every life…. I am a someone who value life from the womb to the tomb. I am also a person that fights to make sure that others are able to live a life of dignity. As a person who follow's Jesus. It is my greatest joy to introduce others into His Kingdom. His kingdom is a place where there is love, hope, joy, kindness, patience, goodness, mercy, and much more… I choose to wave the banner of His kingdom before any attempt to raise the banner of another.
So, instead of complaining about abortion laws (which do sadden me), My wife and are in the process of being licensed for foster care. We are also open to adoption . Instead of complaining about the cost of health care, I am volunteering with hospice to make sure that people don't have to die alone. I am also walking out my faith alongside a community of people that come from many different Latin American countries. I may not be able to resolve their problems. However, I can invite them into my home, share a meal with them, and pray with them. I refuse to abandon others when they need help navigating through life on this beautiful planet that God made for us.
Unapologetically Yours,

Citrix Universal Print Server (UPS) is awesome, but maybe it arrived too late?
First I wanted to say that I think the Universal Print Server (UPS) is a really great feature, for those who doesn't know the UPS feature yet, it's build on the proven and evolved Universal Printer driver from Citrix which is used for client printer redirection for a long time, with UPS this Universal printer driver is extended to network printers also. UPS consist of a client component and a server component which you install on the print server. I will not go into technical details about UPS, this is pretty much covered here.
While the Citrix UPS solves a lot of printing horror (think of unstable printer drivers, driver replication issues, print spooler crashes) I do think we needed the Citrix UPS a while ago harder than we do now, this is mainly because of the following evolutions in the printing space :
1: Follow me printing concept
I see more and more customers that are moving towards a follow me printing concept, in this concept the user is presented with one print object (may be more if you want to preset printing defaults), when a user prints to this object the job is queued on a central print server, the user walks to the nearest printer and types in a code or provide a token\card and after that the print job is send to the printer, this concept has the following advances :
– User can walk to the nearest printer (no more connecting printers based on location or group)
– The user can take away confidential documents immediately
– Monitoring print behavoir and charge-back functionality
– And of course where this blog post is about : There is only one driver needed to connect to this printer object
To illustrate the follow me printing concept, I added a picture from Konica Minolta :
2: Universal Printer Drivers from the printer manufacturer
Yes there where (and maybe still are depending on the manufacturer) a lot of issues with universal printer drivers, but the fact is that they are getting better and have broader support for different platforms and printing devices. The reason to use Universal Printer drivers from you manufacturer is simple :
– One driver to maintain
– Supports a wide range of print devices from the same manufacturer
3: Printer Driver isolation
Last but not least, in windows 2008R2 and Windows 7, there is a mechanism called printer driver isolation. Printer driver isolation means that the printer driver is isolated (Duh) from the print spooler and optionally also from other printer drivers. In this way a single bad printer driver cannot crash the entire print spooler, one side note is that your printer driver needs to support this isolation. If you never have looked at this feature, you should definitely do this because it can be a real life saver when you have a lot of printer drivers to manage.
While this is a nice build-in feature, it's a little bit working around the issue so it's not a reason to not look at better solutions like the Citrix UPS or option 1 and 2. The following isolation modes can be selected:
|Driver-isolation mode
|Run the driver in a process that is shared with other printer drivers but is separate from the spooler process
|Run the driver in a process that is separate from the spooler process and is not shared with other printer drivers
|Run the driver in the spooler process
I'm sure there are a lot of good use cases for the Citrix Universal Print Server feature, and it's even getting better in version 2 when there is also support for advanced printer properties.
For example it uses some nice compression technology between the client and the UPS, so if you are connecting to print servers over the WAN you better start looking at the Universal Print Server!
But on the other hand I do think the Universal Print Server arrived too late, we needed the Universal Print Server much harder a while ago then we do now because of the evolvements in the printing space I summarized in this blog.

An earlier post in which I talked my way through Frost's essay 'The Figure a Poem Makes' has proved to be one of my most visited pieces. As both teacher and poet, I wanted to explore Frost's often teasing pronouncements and here I want to do the same with his longer essay, 'Education by Poetry'. This was originally a talk delivered at Amherst College. It was subsequently revised for publication in the Amherst Graduates' Quarterly (1931). Frost also separately printed an extract from the conclusion of the essay under the title 'The Four Beliefs'. Frost's full text can be accessed here. In the essay, Frost argues that nothing (other than mathematics)is known in itself – our knowledge is only via relations. So we must live by crediting metaphors of self, love, art, nation and deity, among others. Yet all these break down at some point and it this awareness that education ought to provide us with. There is a clear connection to Frost's idea of a poem as a "clarification of life [. . .] a momentary stay against confusion" (''The Figure a Poem Makes').
Paragraphs 1-7
Frost does not do rebarbative. Even when ultimately – as here – he has complex and profound issues to discuss, he invites us in and we follow trustingly. Here, he lulls us with the idea that he will "urge nothing", will merely consider and describe. Only once he has finished will we grasp that his sometimes infuriating reluctance to commit lies at the core of his thinking.
His subject is how poetry is treated in American education. One approach is to bar it which, he admits with full-on irony, "takes the onus off the poetry of having to be used to teach children anything".
Only slightly less ridiculous is the method of other institutions which permit a few examples of traditional poetry but "bar all that is poetical in it by treating it as something other than poetry". What Frost means by "poetical" emerges later but here he mocks the way that poems are treated as no different to other conventional knowledge-based texts ("science") or are examined merely for their linguistic and technical illustrations ("syntax, language").
In a passage that all English teachers will recognise, Frost ironically concedes that education treats poetry in this way in large part because we have to submit marks for assessment. The brute simplicity of a marking regime has its attractions, but it inevitably narrows our focus until we mark for little else but "for accuracy, for correctness". Still keeping what constitutes the "poetical" up his sleeve, Frost tempts us on by suggesting that such accuracy is "the least part of my marking. The hard part is the part beyond that, the part where the adventure begins". The adventure is the real nature of a poetic text.
Paragraphs 8-9
Having considered the abolition and the denaturing of poetry as ways of dealing with its "nuisance" value in education, Frost considers a third way of neutralising it. Mockingly once more, he describes those who accept poetry as a separate discourse but assign it to a "nowhere", exile it to the "flowery", to a place diametrically opposed to the "rigorous and righteous". Poetry here becomes mere entertainment with no truth value, no concern for, or capacity for, knowledge. Poetry occupies only that part of the curriculum that "scatter[s] brains over taste and opinion" but this is hard to assess. Teachers may resort to "a general indefinite mark of X" in such courses and if a marking regime cannot be imposed then such a course can hardly be graced with the description of 'education'. Frost's tone is simultaneously sarcastic and passionately concerned: "How shall a man go through college without having been marked for taste and judgment? What will become of him? What will his end be? He will have to take continuation courses for college graduates. He will have to go to night schools".
Coming closer to his real intention, Frost really does lament this lack of education in taste and opinion. Look at the rising seriousness of concern in this passage: "they have not been educated enough to find their way around in contemporary literature. They don't know what they may safely like in the libraries and galleries. They don't know how to judge an editorial when they see one. They don't know how to judge a political campaign".
This is a key moment because Frost makes it clear that for all his self-deprecatory tone, the foolery and sarcasm, he is leading us to a declaration that education does have a responsibility to prepare young people to be citizens as well as members of a skilled work force. Frost expects education to inculcate interpretative skills and too many Americans leave school/college ill-equipped to "know when they are being fooled by a metaphor, an analogy, a parable". This is not science, nor is it merely syntax or language: "metaphor is, of course, what we are talking about". For Frost, an understanding of how metaphor works is a key part of understanding the world (he will explain this later in the essay) and an understanding of metaphor is best learned through a study of how poetry works. Education about metaphor is education through poetry and "Education by poetry is education by metaphor".
Paragraphs 10-11
I find the next two paragraphs hard to follow. Frost's end point is to return to the importance of metaphor but here he detours through the idea of enthusiasm. As much as taste, enthusiasm is not something the academy can easily mark, but Frost wants it, or at least he wants enthusiasm "taken through the prism of the intellect". This prism metaphor suggests that enthusiasm, when processed through the intellect, refracts a pure-blooded enthusiasm (Frost calls this latter "crude" and likens it to the "oh's and ah's" of someone admiring – without any thought? – a sunset). Such a refraction gives rise to a continuum of different levels of enthusiasm, from "something of overstatement, something of statement, and something of understatement". The prism of the intellect is now re-named as "an idea". I think Frost wants a not-unsurprising blend of passion and thought in his enthusiasm – neither cold assessment (marking?) nor the oh's and ah's of thoughtless fanaticism.
Paragraphs 12-14
Frost now returns to his main theme via a slight revision of his thought, suggesting he's really been discussing "enthusiasm tamed by metaphor". His next point is much clearer: "I do not think anybody ever knows the discreet use of metaphor, his own and other people's, the discreet handling of metaphor, unless he has been properly educated in poetry". Metaphor is the prism (spawned from intellect, something of an idea) through which our emotional responses are projected to achieve knowledge. But Frost is convinced that an awareness of this fact is not shared equally amongst us and that education through poetry will serve to increase this awareness.
Now Frost begins to talk more clearly about metaphor itself. The importance of it lies in the fact that it "begins in trivial metaphors, pretty metaphors, "grace" metaphors" but (as his essay argues) metaphor also "goes on to the profoundest thinking that we have". Frost talks elsewhere of what Tim Kendall calls "ulteriority", glossed here as the method of poetry of "saying one thing and meaning another". The way Frost discusses this he is sure it is not an abstruse poetic idea but a day to day, almost instinctive human preference: "People say, "Why don't you say what you mean?" We never do that, do we, being all of us too much poets. We like to talk in parables and in hints and in indirections—whether from diffidence or some other instinct".
Frost wants to make big claims for metaphorical thinking: "I have wanted in late years to go further and further in making metaphor the whole of thinking". He allows the exception of "mathematical thinking" but wants all other knowledge, including "scientific thinking" to be brought within the bounds of metaphor. He suggests the Greeks' foundational thought about the world, the "All", was fundamentally metaphorical in nature, especially Pythagoras' concept of the nature of things as comparable to number: "Number of what? Number of feet, pounds and seconds". This is the basis for a scientific, empirical (measurable) view of the world and hence "has held and held" in the shape of our still-predominating scientific view of it.
Paragraphs 15-19
Frost refers to a visiting scientist who tried to mix spatial and temporal metaphors: "The two don't go together". Another such modern metaphor is that a thing is "an event". Another is that space "is something like curved". Another is that individual particles possess a freedom. Another is the "metaphor of evolution" or indeed that the whole universe, the whole of everything, "is like unto a growing thing". Frost wants to alert his audience to the role of such metaphors – often unrecognised as such – in both our everyday and more refined scientific views of the world. He briefly dwells on the metaphor of evolution, accepting its brilliance (in terms of its still-continuing applicability) but insisting that even this "will break down at some point".
Paragraph 20-23
These are the key paragraphs. Frost argues that our lack of understanding of how metaphor works will leave us "not safe". We must understand "figurative values" and so be able to assess "the metaphor in its strength and its weakness". In an image that brings to mind his poem 'Birches', he explains we will not "know how far [we] may expect to ride it and when it may break down". The point is that it will break down (the boy riding the birch always comes back to earth) and education ought to give us the experience and the equipment to recognise a "good metaphor, as far as it goes, and [we] must know how far". As I understand it, Frost wants us to approach human knowledge more tentatively, more sceptically, recognising its provisional nature because it is based in metaphors which will at some moment break down and need to be replaced by a better, more "brilliant" metaphor. The study of poetry offers us experiences of figurative thinking and (if we think of Frost's poems) the sense of provisionality they often inculcate.
That we have a tendency to forget this provisional nature of knowledge and understanding seems to be Frost's next point. We take up arms (as it were) by taking up certain metaphorical ideas and making totems of them. He berates Freudianism's focus on "mental health" as an example of how "the devil can quote Scripture, which simply means that the good words you have lying around the devil can use for his purposes as well as anybody else". That this is dangerous (makes us not safe) is illustrated by the passage of dialogue Frost now gives between himself and somebody else. The other argues that the universe is like a machine but Frost (adopting a sort of Socratic interrogation technique) draws out the limits of the metaphor, concluding he "wanted to go just that far with that metaphor and no further. And so do we all. All metaphor breaks down somewhere. That is the beauty of it. It is touch and go with the metaphor, and until you have lived with it long enough you don't know when it is going. You don't know how much you can get out of it and when it will cease to yield. It is a very living thing. It is as life itself".
Paragraphs 24-26
Frost now returns us to the school room and what it is for a student to "Think". It is now clear that this frequent exhortation from teachers really means "just putting this and that together; it is just saying one thing in terms of another". In a clear allusion to his poem 'After Apple-picking', Frost says to explain to students about the workings of metaphor is to "set their feet on the first rung of a ladder the top of which sticks through the sky". The most significant example of such metaphorical thinking is "the philosophical attempt to say matter in terms of spirit, or spirit in terms of matter." This – like all metaphors in the end – is an attempt that must fail but "it is the height of poetry, the height of all thinking, the height of all poetic thinking, that attempts to say matter in terms of spirit and spirit in terms of matter". Frost clearly feels each realm is more clearly understood via metaphors of the other but (speaking in the 1930s) the main danger he foresees is a too-materialist vision of the world: "The only materialist – be he poet, teacher, scientist, politician, or statesman – is the man who gets lost in his material without a gathering metaphor to throw it into shape and order. He is the lost soul". He is lost because blind to metaphors.
Paragraphs 27-37
Frost starts to look at metaphors through some "trivial ones" from the Odyssey – a shield and seeds of fire. These are the raw materials for an education by metaphor and recall his definition of a poem as "a momentary stay against confusion" in The Figure a Poem Makes where he argues "I would rather have trivial ones of my own to live by than the big ones of other people. But there are more significant metaphors: "the ones we live by". Frost repeats: "[metaphor] is all there is of thinking". He explains we do not have to write poetry to understand metaphor. Reading it serves as long as we read it "not as linguistics, not as history, not as anything but poetry". The only form of assessment a teacher can apply to someone reading poetry is how "close" they come to it. This remains vague, to say the least, but Frost insists "everything depends on the closeness with which you come, and you ought to be marked for the closeness, for nothing else".
Paragraphs 38-43
Evidence of such closeness to the true nature of poetry (and hence metaphor) is now termed a form of "belief". He gives five different forms of such belief. Frost makes each sound like a sense of conviction, arising from the perception of a metaphorical connection between two things. Our giving credence to this sense of connection is also what can give rise to a fulfilling of such a connection, almost as if our belief in it gives rise to it.
His first illustration of this is in a young person's self-belief. Is this like a young woman seeing herself as an engineer, giving that vision credit and hence pursuing it towards fulfilment? Of course, such metaphors break down and this is something more clearly acknowledged in Frost's second example: "the belief of love". The metaphor of a romantic relationship between two individuals must be given credence (on both sides) to be pursued but "the disillusionment that novels are full of is simply the disillusionment from disappointment in that belief. That belief can fail".
The third form of belief is literary or art belief. Frost focuses on the creation of a work of art which should arise not from cunning or calculation but from "belief. The beauty, the something, the little charm of the thing to be." This is more "felt than known" (again recalling The Figure a Poem Makes) and we need to see the artist sensing a connection to something other, giving it credence, and trying to fulfil the insight, working towards it, bringing it in existence (not merely recording something already known). This is also the model for Frost's fourth belief – the God-belief. He's most brief on this but the implication seems to be that God is something we bring into existence through our belief. Again, we need to remember that both literary- and God-belief is liable to failure and break down.
Here, Frost's final belief is national belief, a belief in a nation to which we give credence and hence bring about its fulfilment, bringing it into existence. The particular and personal nature of each of these beliefs is brought out when Frost reaches for the metaphor of the painter's palette. As he says elsewhere, being forced to adopt others' metaphors, even a whole culture's metaphors, becomes a form of tyranny that he would resist. This is partly because all metaphors break down eventually, but also because "I want my palette, if I am a painter, I want my palette on my thumb or on my chair, all clean, pure, separate colours. Then I will do the mixing on the canvas". Whether we are engaged in self-, love-, art-, God- or nation-creation, we must make our own.
Paragraph 44
Interestingly, Frost concludes by reviewing and re-ordering the five areas of metaphorical belief. Each has a "shyness" about it in that we are reluctant or incapable of pronouncing upon it until we have tried to pursue it: "only the outcome can tell". This must be, in part, the source of Frost's slipperiness, the sense we often have that his commitment is always provisional, or yet forthcoming. Even in national-belief, "it has got to be fulfilled, and we are not talking until we know more, until we have something to show". This is understandably true of writing a poem which arises "not of cunning and craft [. . .] but of real art". This is now glossed as "believing the thing into existence, saying as you go more than you even hoped you were going to be able to say, and coming with surprise to an end that you foreknew only with some sort of emotion". In this conclusion, Frost holds back God-belief for its more traditional, ultimate position: "And then finally the relationship we enter into with God to believe the future in – to believe the hereafter in".

Day 2) Most Treasured Item
Now this is a hard question. There are just so many things I love, how could I choose just one? Well I can't, sorry. Instead I am going to list my top 5 treasured items.
5) My Library
I know this sounds like a copout, but it's the truth. I have so many favorite books in there that it would be hard to pick just one. I have classics, mysteries, horror, romance, comics, my bible, childhood favorites, books that were gifts, books that were recommended, books over a hundred years old; it's a lot and I value every one.
For more bookish posts, go to Walk My Way
4) Tea Mugs
I love drinking tea and I have three special mugs. My first mug I won at the fair. The game was a bunch of glass cups and bowls stacked up in a pyramid, and the point of it was to toss your quarters into them. Whichever ones the coins landed in, you were able to take home. I won two glasses, a bowl, and a beer mug. But I don't like beer, so I use that mug for my tea which is awesome as it is gigantic!
My second favorite mug is one I made after going to Disneyland with my friends. I wanted to bring back a souvenir, but couldn't find anything I really liked. So when I got home I went to Walmart.com and made a collage mug with pics from the trip.
And my third mug, a pint sized mug that comes with a lid. It is AWESOME!
For more on tea, go to Never Big Enough
3) Star Wars Collection
Some of you might think I'm strange or a loser, but I don't care. I love Star Wars and think it is the coolest thing ever. I have a huge collection of all kinds of Star Wars memorabilia.
I have action figures (Barbie size) of Han Solo, Princess Leia, Obi Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, and Chewbacca; a stuffed Chewbacca; a R2D2 mug; two commemorative coins (princess Leia & Darth Vader); all of the collectable Slurpee cups, 2 special edition Burger King crowns (one with the characters from the original and the other with characters from the new film); the graphic novel of Return of the Jedi; Star Wars Monopoly, two Star Wars watches; and much much more. It has taken me quite some time to hunt down some of these objects, and I would hate to part with them.
For more on Star Wars, go to We Want You
2) Tippi Hedren's autograph on my copy of The Birds
So I haven't gotten around to reviewing this film for Horrorfest yet, but will be soon. This is one of my all-time favorite Alfred Hitchcock films along with being the first of his films I had ever seen, quickly becoming the gateway to the road of my obsession. Not only was this the first Alfred Hitchcock film I have ever seen, but the first one I have ever owned, saving up my money and purchasing it, And believe me that took a lot as I was a young girl (about 7 or 8) and didn't get an allowance.
Anyways, one year when I was in college I was looking at the paper and saw Tippi Hedren was going to be at Bodega Bay (where the film took place) and was going to be signing autographs. I had already made plans with my family that were unbreakable, but encouraged my friends to check it out, and if they did could they please take my DVD with them.
Long story short they stood in a massive line and had to pay (to this day none of them will reveal how much no matter how hard I try to get it out of them) in order to get the autograph for me. Not only is it awesome to have Tippi Hedren's signature on a film that changed my life, but every time I look at it I am reminded of how amazing my friends are and how much they care about me. 🙂
1) Clint Eastwood Autographed picture
Sorry the pic is of low quality and a bit blurry (I purposely made my real name hard to read.
Anyways, yes you all now how much I simply adore Clint Eastwood. I think he is an amazing actor and a total hottie. Last year I wrote him a fan letter and sent a picture (in a self addressed stamped envelope) asking him to please sign it. I also gushed about how much I loved him as an actor. In December I was surprised with the greatest gift of all, my photo back with his signature. Not only is it an amazing piece of memorabilia to own, but it makes me feel so special to know that Clint took time out of his day for little ole' me.

Sue has been the most commited employee. She is always at her duty post doing what she was being paid to do. With all the zeal and industry being exhibited by Sue and most of her colleagues, the company couldn't explain why productivity was taking a steady and speedy decline until a consultant detective was hired.
Investigations revealed that Sue spends 70% of her -work' sessions in dating chat rooms. Other times, she was emailing her pals and reading internet news – oh she loved the -fashion and style' segments!
Worse case for Steve who was discovered to be trading the company's sensitive information's to a rival group.
How were these discoveries made since these people work alone in their closets and never share their computers?
Hardware keyloggers to the rescue!
keylogger are devices that are used to monitor the activities on a computer. It works by tracking the keystrokes, recording conversations, tracking the creation of documents and monitoring emails. This is usually achieved when a hardware circuit is attached somewhere in between the computer keyboard and the computer. They are designed in such a way that they blend with the rest of the computer cabling.
How they work
They basically interrupt the keystrokes signals and stores them away. The storage can range from 2MB, which is enough for one – week use, and up to 2GB of flash memory. Ideally, these memories can only be accessed by the individual that installed the device.
To access these memories the installer presses a combination of keys which switches the device from a keystroke-capturing mode to a usb flashdrive mode. Then you receive a message which tells you that a new usb disc drive has been located, and there you will find the keystroke logs that were collected. You also see a configuration file which you can modify in order to change the secret access key.
Hardware Keylogger are now preferred to software keyloggers. The latter can be easily detected by software scanners, and their operations are limited to a single computer. They are also dedicated to only one type of operating system which could be Windows, Mac OS, Linux, etc unlike the hardware equivalents which are operating system – independent, and whose operations, recording and playback, can be done on two different computers. One other minus for the software type is that it requires full access to the operating system to be installed, when the installer might only want to sneak it up and catch the target users off guard.
So for parents who want to track their child's PC activities or employers who want to monitor their workers or generally for computer users who want to back up typed texts, monitor remote computers, retrieve unknown passwords without depending on the operating system, hardware keyloggers provide the perfect answer.

April was busier than usual with children on school holidays, beach days, Easter, followed by Anzac Day. I'm rather pleased that May has come around and I can get back to my home kitchen full-time, with some mellow Autumn cooking, interspersed with trips to the library. Anzac day, April 25th, demanded a few biscuits to mark the occasion. It's a baking tradition in my kitchen as it was in my mother's until recently. My Anzac biscuits are flat and crispy, the way I like them. I pop them in an old Anzac tin in the hope that they might last a few days. They never do. The Department of Veteran affairs has firm rules about Anzac biscuits. You risk a large fine if you attempt to call them cookies or play with the original recipe, or misappropriate the name in a commercial business. While not patriotic at all, I still believe in the uniquely Australian/New Zealand aspects of this day. Anzac biscuits are so popular with my extended family, I should bake them more often. For flatter, brown and crispy Anzacs, slightly reduce the percentage flour and add more brown sugar.
I whipped up these yeasted buns for Easter this year: unfortunately there was little time to concentrate on feeding a leaven for a sourdough version. This lot had extra fruit and were glazed with quince jelly. Unlike the supermarket versions which can still taste fresh after a week, ( or maybe even a month), these buns are preservative free so they don't keep for more than a day or two. The left over buns landed in a rich bread and butter pudding.
One vegetable that grows very happily in this awful drought is chilli. They ripen in autumn and will continue to enjoy life in the garden until the first frost arrives. I use a few fresh, but the bulk of the crop is dried and ground into flakes for the year ahead. I also make chilli oil. Small batches are better as the oil can go rancid. This small jar will last a month or so. A nice drizzle for a pizza or crab pasta.
It's garlic planting time. When you see sprouting garlic around the markets, you know the time is right. I usually plant 300 each year. This basket of 100 is a mixture of my own garlic and some Australian grown garlic from the market. Three separate plantings over May will ensure a staggered pick.
The chooks are pumping again, and suddenly I have far too many eggs. I have sent Mr Tranquillo the recipe, again, for Crème Brûlée, purchased some second-hand shallow terracotta ramekins, and I have also given him a blow torch for caramelising the tops. It's his favourite dessert so I'm hoping it becomes his signature dish. I really do like it too.
Autumn also sees the return of pasta making in my kitchen. Three eggs and 300 grams of flour, preferable tipo 00, or a mixture of tipo 00 and semola rimacinata, or just plain flour if that's all you have: no oil, no salt and no other additives, according to Italian nonne. This will make you a truckload of fresh pasta. I fiddled with some parsley leaf pasta in these lasagne sheets. Not worth the effort and such a 90s thing to do.
It's pastie time again. The filling in these pasties was fairly Cornish- onion, carrot, parsnip, potato. I found this puff pastry hard to digest. The sheets were left over in my fridge. For my next lot, I'll focus on a good home-made short crust pastry.
There's always soup in my kitchen. We don't wait for Autumn or cooler weather to make good soup- we have it all year round. I am passionate about the building of a good soup. My soups are never randomly made. I like colour combinations, creating different flavour bases via a finely chopped soffritto, and seeking pleasing presentations so that you mangiare con gli occhi, or eat with the eyes before tasting the soup. Today, I wanted to paint a monochromatic soup in white and pale green, a contrast to today's earthy dark rye bread. After building a soffritto of finely chopped garlic, fresh rosemary, a few anchovies and a pinch of ground chilli, I added a pile of cooked cannellini beans, shredded pale green cabbage ( wongbok cabbage which cooks quickly), and a handful of Pantacce pasta. A little grated Parmigiano Reggiano at the table and buon appetito. It's ready.
Another cold day soup was built with Autumn colours, a typical Ribollita style soup. The soffritto build included onion, carrot, celery, and garlic. Once softened in EV olive oil, I added borlotti beans, more carrot, shredded cavolo nero, and some halved cherry tomatoes. This dense soup was served with a hunk of white sourdough.
A new cake has come into my life. I love flourless cakes that aren't too cloying. This one has four ingredients ( butter, sugar, walnuts, eggs) and can be whipped up in a few minutes. It is dense, is a great keeper and très French. The recipe for Walnut Cake from Perigord can be found here.
That's a quick roundup of the kitchen treasure this month. Thanks as always to Sherry, of Sherry's Pickings, for the link up to In My Kitchen.

I really like the clock posted here:
I have used a modified version of it for our video presentation screens at the school reception, however, for some reason which I simply don't know why, the screens are five minutes fast, for example, when it says 11.22 here in my office, it says 11.22 on the flash file HERE, when I publish it on the reception screens, it will say 11.27 THERE.
There is no problem with the code, that is fine, it is something to do with the screen set up... very complicated and beyond me I'm afraid... however, is there a simple way that I can alter the ActionScript so that although it's 11.22 in my office and of course 11.22 in reception, the code bit will say it's actually 11.17 BUT when it's on the screen because of the 5 minute discrepancy it will now say 11.22... does that make sense? It's just the actionscript code that I need to reduce by 5 minutes.
Many thanks,
Jay Dog

Ok, I know you're probably thinking — WAIT TIFF? 10? SERIOUSLY? Yes, I'm totally seriously. With the various vitamin deficiencies from the lack of whole foods, to environmental stress, to typical aging and hormonal imbalance, we must give our body what it's lacking in order for it to function properly. I don't know about you, but I want to stay away from the doctors and prescriptions as I get older. What we do now will determine how we look and feel in 20 years! I want to be strong- mentally and physically- when I'm 65.
Remember, please be mindful and consult your doctor if you have health conditions and are taking medications before starting any new vitamin and supplement routine.
This video is long so you may want to watch it in sections. Get your pen + paper to take notes! My handsome hubby makes a cameo too.

The Natural Bliss Of Colors
The picture reveals the many shades of nature. From the flaming orange of the setting sun to the blue of the pristine waters, Sri Lanka has a lot of contrasts to offer. The majesty is evident in the scenery.
Lapped Up In Greenery
Sri Lanka is green and the very sight of the country-scape proves so. With modern life having tinted livelihoods, we still get to see an interesting co-existence of natural prowess and progress of man at the same time.
The Torquoise Waters Entwine
The scenery of Lanka is such that you are forced to think how beautiful nature is. The vast expanses of the water bodies merge with the horizon. Only to make us think how all things natural are so beautiful!
An Icon. A Religion
The statue of Buddha is an icon of Sri Lanka. It mesmerizes. It beguiles. It inspires. The land is steeped in his teachings and we know why Buddha is revered in Sri Lanka.
The Monk
The title suffices despite being a two worder. The snap of this monk asserts that life is easier when seen through the eyes of God. The monks are simpletons yet they are as prone to pain as us. The only difference is they know the path to salvation.
A Jigsaw On The Land
The structure seen here is a modern day innovation but reminds us of the age old jigsaws we have all been subject to. The first thing that beguiles us is the enmeshed structure. Much like life that brings lows without once letting us flow away!
The Buddha In Meditation
Surprisingly, the brass statue seems so true to life that we almost feel Lord Buddha is sitting here amid us. Amid the greens. Amid peace. Amid life. This is the effect of meditation, they say. You forget that life has anything but peace to offer.
A View Of The Lanka
Myths and legends apart, Sri Lanka is a modern day paradise that incites us to explore. The pagoda like roofs, the tall scrapers and the placid water make an exciting amalgamation, which lets us breathe in the air much in peace.
The Sprawling Mansion
Sri Lanka is not just about greenery and religion. It is as much about sprawling mansions that remind us of the fairytales we read back in childhood. The wonderful shot here captures the serene calm these modern buildings manage to tag along with their majesty.
A White House Like Replica
Though smaller and less grand, this building reminds me of the White House. The white seems to contrast against the green grounds while the dome seems to give a message of grandeur in its miniscule-ness.
The Lions Of Lanka
The lions seems to be ready for a roar. An emblem of Sri Lanka almost, this iconic statue has been clicked over time. However, the appeal never seems to fade. Regal. Majestic.
Oh For A Lake So Green
Nature truly comes alive in its own way at this lake in Sri Lanka. Home to a diverse variety of trees and bushes, this garden makes for a unique speck with its greenish lake.
Bathed In Green, As Far As We Can See
The sights and sounds around seem to have been coated in a layer of green. The expanse is sprawling but the real jazz in the scene comes from the coating of greenery each nook seems to enjoy.
Right Before They Say "I Do"
Lucky to have met a couple about to exchange vows. The Sri Lankan apir make for a great couple and just as they were about to say "I Do", it was my camera going click click.
Single For A Minute
Perhaps her last shot as a single lady, this lovely woman is all set to go in and walk down the aisle. A perfect sepia tinged shot that brings out the excited nervousness of a woman set to be a bride in a minute.
The Vows Exchanged For Life
...herein begins a chapter of togetherness when she holds the roses and he tags her along. marriage is a builder, they say. It brings the opposites to one ground and teach you to be together no matter what.

Are you an EV owner who has received a shockingly high quote for repairs? A reporter would like to speak with you; please reach out to [email protected] by Friday, May 26 for more details.
OLD CARS -The truth .Owners tales.How they really were.
This afternoon, when I got home from work, in 99 degree weather, I decided to test out my '79 NYer. It was a bit cranky at first, but did fire up. 99 degrees is about as bad as it gets around these parts, so I'm hoping this car's hot weather issues are behind it now. The big test though, will be the next time I drive it to work, and see if it gets me back home!
Actually, today is the 1 year anniversary of the first time it left me stranded. I remember I drove it to work, and had to take my grandmother to a doctor appointment that evening. She always goes on the 2nd tuesday of June. Sucker left me stranded at work, and I ended up having to walk home and get another car. But then a line of thunderstorms came though and cooled things off. I went back up to work with a friend to test it out, and the possessed beast fired right up. :surprise: I didn't want to chance driving it to work today, lest I end up having to walk home in 99 degree weather. So, I guess I don't trust it fully yet, but that will come. With time.0
I thought I'd share a little wisdom, obvious as it may be to most of you, because in this case the obvious resonated with me, and has guided me on my purchases of used vehicles.
several years ago I was extolling the attributes of a car I was considering, and really wanted to own, to a co-worker, justifying the bid I was about to make to the seller, largely on the grounds of the repair records the seller showed me. I was impressed by the number of items and components that had been replaced or repaired. My colleague suggested that I put that aside, and focus, instead, on what the car needed. Duh! While I hadn't ignored the needs, I realized I was being seduced by how much the current owner had spent on the car. A thorough evaluation of the cars needs prompted me to walk away. Since that time, when considering a purchase, I've zeroed in on what the car will require, not just to pass inspection, but to avoid being nickeled and dimed after the purchase.
Oh, the car I walked away from was a '97 Passat V6. Not exactly the paragon of reliability.0
isellhondas Member Posts: 20,342Had you bought that Passat you probably would have added another three inch stack of repair orders within a short time.
You dodged a bullet!0
Yeah, as I walked away from that cosmetically like-new, black, sharp looking car, I asked myself "what was I thinking?"0
loosenut Member Posts: 165you're right..they try to impress,or are they trying for sympathy?when they tell how mutch was spent on their "lawn ornament",
..it's like when i used to clean up used cars for dealers...it doesn't matter what you did,or how long it took-what they do see is what you DIDN'T do..
..how many cars on craigslis say"new motor-needs transmission",or vice versa..?
it's what you still have to do to make it move-as that's what it's main function is,despite the set of gold plated 22's ,or the fuzzy dice-those things won't get you home on a cold rainy night.. :sick:0

I went through a similar situation a few years ago, with a 1980 Chrysler Cordoba. It had originally been a slant six car, but the driveline had been replaced by a built-up 318 out of a '75 Dart, torqueflite 727 out of a smallblock '68 Charger, and an 8 3/4 rear end, also out of the Charger, with relatively quick 3.23 or 3.55 gears. It was a sweet looking car...in the pictures, at least. In person, not so sweet. Plus, the brakes went out on it.
Most of the sheetmetal was actually pretty good, but the plastic rear fender caps were broken, and a lot of the structure underneath was rusting...and these were unit-bodied cars! The interior was a bit moldly, and smelled of dampness.
But man, did that thing sound sweet when it fired up! I was definitely tempted! Luckily, I came to my senses. The seller wanted $1900 for this thing. And on the bright side, he offered to tow it to my house. :P
I really am glad I passed on the thing, in retrospect, because less than a year later, I found my '76 Grand LeMans on eBay, and bought it. It's not a perfect car, but was good enough to make the 500 mile trip back from Ohio, and has consistently made it back and forth to four GM shows in Carlisle. And it would need a lot less to make it perfect than that Cordoba would have!
Had I bought the Cordoba, I have a feeling I never would have gotten the LeMans, so sometimes things have a way of working out.
One thing that I find funny about the two, is that while they're both the same basic class of car, an intermediate coupe, the LeMans is actually the smaller of the two. Despite the LeMans being an old school, pre-downsized intermediate and the Cordoba being "downsized", and actually based on the Aspen/Volare, which were considered compacts! The LeMans is 208" long, on a 112" wb, while the Cordoba was about 210", on a 112.7" wb. Not a huge difference, to be sure, but I guess that shows one reason why Chryslers weren't selling. GM comes out with a downsized intermediate, and they seem downright tiny (for the time). Chrysler comes out with a downsized intermediate, and it's about the size of a Caprice. :sick:
Gotta admit though, I still have a thing for those Cordobas, and especially the Mirada. I just want one that's in better shape than that thing I saw four years ago.0
fintail Member Posts: 56,192I still remember the Mirada CMX owned by a friend of mine's mother when I was in grade school. It was white (I want to see a pearly white but I don't know if that's correct) with t-tops and mag wheels etc. It seemed like an unusual car even then back in the mid 80s, when it wasn't very old. I remember it was rarely driven, they must have thought it was something special. Can't remember the last time I saw one like it on the road.0

The Workers' Convoys to Algeria
26 October 2013
The year 1848 was one of uprisings across Europe and there were two in France. In February, after a period too long of unemployment, financial crises, bad harvests and a constitutional monarch quashing freedoms in an effort to roll back history and bring back an absolute monarchy to France, people lost patience and took to the streets. The streets of Paris were barricaded, there were fights, the Prime Minister resigned. Outside the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, soldiers fired into the crowd, killing fifty-two people. The king abdicated and moved to Britain (where else?).
The Second Republic was formed, pleasing no one. At first, jobs and workshops were created for the unemployed. One of the rebels was made a sort of consultant or token worker in government. Radicals wanted more democracy, opportunity and freedom. Conservatives, as ever, wanted the same things but only for themselves. Mobs took to the streets again in June. Karl Marx was in Paris at the time and was most hopeful. However, the revolution was crushed. It took over 120,000 soldiers to overpower armed workers and their families. Afterward, the government became more repressive and somewhat vengeful.
Even before the June Days uprising, the mayor of the First arondissement of Paris had been promoting the idea of sending the unemployed and their families to colonize Algeria. By September, it was a plan, approved by the Ministry for War and by the Senate. Money was approved for the establishment of agricultural colonies and the offer to the poor was made.
Only volunteers were accepted, and they had to be workers. They and their families had to be French citizens. They had to complete a form, produce a certification of "good morals" (presumably from their local mayor) and a doctor's certificate of good health. They were promised land and financial support. The land was to become theirs after they had successfully farmed it for a few years. The number of people to be accepted as colonists was set at 12,500 but there were many, many more applicants, so it was raised to 13,500. In the end, the numbers of those who went were 13,903 adults and 391 children.
The first convoy left from Bercy in October, 165 years ago. Over the next six months, there would be sixteen more convoys of workers turned colonists, the majority from Alsace and Lorraine. It took them about two weeks to get to Marseilles, travelling on inland rivers and then by train, then about three or four days to sail the Mediterranean to Algeria. Their colonies in Algeria were named:
- Saint-Cloud
- Saint-Leu
- Rivoli
- El-Affroun
- Castiglione
- Tefeschoun
- Bou Haroun
- Robertville
- Gastonville
- Fleurus
- Saint-Louis
- Damiette
- Lodi
- Montenotte
- Pontéba
- La Ferme
- Jemmapes
- Mondovi
- Marengo
- Novi
- Zurich
- Argonne
- Héliopolis
- Aboukir
- Millesimo
There were successes and catastrophes. Most of the colonists and then their descendants stayed until the Algerian War for independence began in the 1950s. Then, though many came to France, many others went elsewhere in this wide world.
If you find that your family history travels this very strange path of being starved into rebellion, suppressed, then packed off to a colony, there are some blogs and websites dedicated to documenting these people:
- Emigration Algérie covers the Alsatians who went on the convoys.
- Algérie Migrants - by the same people as the above, lists all of the villages from which the Alsatian colonists came.
- Généalogie Algérie Maroc Tunisie - is the genealogy association concerned with the French of North Africa. They have a number of well-written publications and a search box for surnames on their website, which is excellent.
- The website of the Archives nationales d'Outre-Mer, about which we have written before, have the civil registrations of Algeria online.
Bonne chasse!

HOUSTON, April 23 (UPI) -- Kyle Seager and Jesus Montero each socked a two-run homer and Kendrys Morales added a solo shot Monday in the Seattle Mariners' 7-1 win over Houston.
Seager's clout in the third put Seattle ahead 3-0 and Montero's blast in the next frame broke the contest open, sending the M's to a victory in the opener of a three-game series.
Morales went deep in the fifth and Montero added a sacrifice fly to finish with three RBI in the victory.
Felix Hernandez (2-2) struck out nine over six scoreless innings to notch the decision. The Mariners' ace issued only one walk en route to the victory.
Astros starter Brad Peacock (1-2) was tagged for seven runs on nine hits in a 4 1/3-inning effort.
Rick Ankiel supplied a solo homer for hapless Houston, which fell for an eighth time in nine games.

SanDisk today released its first self-encrypting SSDs, a line of drives aimed at enterprises.
SanDisk's new X300s SSD uses both the Trusted Computing Group's Opal 2.0 specification and Microsoft Encrypted Hard Drive hardware-based encryption to protect data on the drive.

The encryption algorithms are also coupled with a management dashboard for IT admins to use for audit and compliance purposes.
The SanDisk X300s SSD will be available in June through the SanDisk Commercial Business Channel in two form factors - 2.5-in x 7mm thick and an M.2 single-sided expansion board, with capacities of 64GB, 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB.

Capacities up to 512GB will be supported on the M.2 expansion board; the 2.5-in SSD, which fits in a standard laptop's hard drive bay, is available in 64GB, 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB capacities.
The X300s SSD comes equipped with Wave System's Embassy Security Center (ESC) as part of the upcoming SanDisk SSD Dashboard software suite. Wave's ESC is a local client application that manages the X300s by determining who can access the encrypted data via user and password set-up. The inclusion of Wave's ESC on each X300s SSD includes local management of each drive.
The Wave software is provided at no additional cost, SanDisk said.
The company did not release pricing for the drives.
