eMusic
In our efforts to further the digitization of sheet music, Project
Gutenberg also recommends the Mutopia Project. The following was
contributed by the project team leader, Chris Sawer:
"The Mutopia project consists of a growing online collection of sheet
music, all of which may be freely downloaded, printed, copied,
distributed, modified, performed and recorded. It has just celebrated
its fifth year online, and now has nearly 500 works, ranging from
simple pieces for solo instruments, to large orchestral pieces and even
an entire opera. Composers from Bach to Vivaldi are featured, along
with some early jazz, and some modern pieces which have been released
under a free license by their composers. Visit our website to see what
we've got - and maybe contribute some music yourself!"

There is a new experimental online reader available. Start from any
bibliographic record page, e.g.
http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/4300
Basically this paginates the text file and remembers your last position
in a cookie so you can later resume reading where you left off.
Please test it. It should work with any book that has a text file
where the encoding is known.

MACHINE TRANSLATION
We are seeking as much information as possible on the various
approaches to Machine Translation. Any brand names or contact
information would be greatly appreciated.

We are in the process of rewriting some of the general FAQs and
would appreciate help proofreading them over the next few months.
We've added some new FAQs and generally updated information
about Project Gutenberg. Take a look, and email Michael or
Greg with any suggestions or corrections. We'll have these
updated from time to time, now that we've passed #10,000.
A new set of these will be in the works when we pass #20,000.

DISTRIBUTED PROOFREADERS NEEDS CONTENT, PROOFERS AND SCANNER TYPES
Please contact us at:
dphelp@pgdp.net
if you would like to know more about the Distributed Proofreaders.
Thanks to very good recent publicity, the Distributed Proofreading
project has greatly accelerated its pace. Please visit the site:
http://www.pgdp.net
for more information about how you can help a lot, by
simply proofreading just a few pages per day, or more.
If you have a book that has been scanned, but not yet run
through OCR (optical character recognition) or proofed,
and you would like the Distributed Proofreaders to work on it,
please email dphelp@pgdp.net and we will get things started.
Also, DP is seeking public domain books not already in the
Project Gutenberg collection. To see what is already online,
visit http://ibiblio.org/gutenberg/GUTINDEX.ALL (a text file)
listing Project Gutenberg eBooks and is available for downloading.
Do you have Public Domain books you would like to see in the archive?
Can they be destructively scanned? If so send them to the Distributed
Proofreading Team! Please email dphelp@pgdp.net with your geographic
location. You will be given the address of the nearest high-speed scanner
(note that the high-speed scanner requires destruction of the book(s) which
will not be returned). We have high-speed scanners currently located in
the east, west and central portions of the US to make shipping easier.
Please make sure that any books you send are _not_ already in the archive
and please check them against David's "In Progress" list at:
http://www.dprice48.freeserve.co.uk/GutIP.html
to ensure no one is currently working on them. It would also be helpful if
you obtain copyright clearance before mailing the books, and send the 'OK'
lines to
dphelp@pgdp.net
Do you like to work on an entire book at once but don't have the time
or technology to do the scanning, OCR, and initial proofing yourself?
Distributed Proofreaders has the perfect solution! Just send us email
telling us that you are interested in post-processing and we will help
find a project you would like to work on.

Have We Given Away A Trillion Books/Dollars Yet???
Statistical Review
In the 48 weeks of this year, we have produced 3,742 new eBooks.
It took us from 1971 to 2000 to produce our FIRST 3,742 eBooks!!!
That's 48 WEEKS as Compared to ~31.5 YEARS!!!
FLASHBACK!
Here's a sample of what books we were doing around eBook #3742
Feb 2003 Letters of Franz Liszt Vol 2, From Rome to the End[2loflxxx.xxx] 3750
Feb 2003 Quotations of Rousseau's Confessions, David Widger[dwqjjxxx.xxx] 3749

Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte, by Bourrienne, Constant, and Stewarton 3740
With 14,649 eBooks online as of December 08, 2004 it now takes an average
of 100,000,000 readers gaining a nominal value of $0.68 from each book,
for Project Gutenberg to have currently given away $1,000,000,000,000
[One Trillion Dollars] in books.
100 million readers is only ~1.5% of the world's population!
This "cost" is down from about $.94 when we had 10,069 eBooks a year ago
Can you imagine ~14,649 books each costing ~$.26 less a year later???
Or. . .would this say it better?
Can you imagine ~14,649 books each costing 1/3 less a year later???
At 14,649 eBooks in 33 Years and 05.00 Months We Averaged
438 Per Year [We do about 3/4 that much per month these days!]
36.6 Per Month
1.20 Per Day
At 3742 eBooks Done In The 343 Days Of 2004 We Averaged
11 Per Day
78 Per Week
340 Per Month
The production statistics are calculated based on full weeks'
production; each production-week starts/ends Wednesday noon,
starts with the first Wednesday of January. January 7th was
the first Wednesday of 2004, and thus ended PG's production
year of 2003 and began the production year of 2004 at noon.
This year there will be 52 Wednesdays, thus no extra week.

[PG Editor's Comments In Brackets]
>From NewsScan:
IBM MAY BE LEAVING THE PC BUSINESS
IBM is said to be talking with Chinese PC-maker Lenovo, which was
formerly known as Legend, about the possible sale of IBM's PC operations
(though IBM neither confirms nor denies the rumor). Samuel J. Palmisano, who
became IBM's chief executive in 2002, has been recasting it as a service
organization offering itself as a consulting partner with its corporate
customers. Industry analyst Mark Stahlman explains, "Palmisano's getting out
of businesses that aren't growth opportunities and concentrating on what IBM
does best. PC's are not where the growth is." And Gartner research vice
president Leslie Fiering says: "Exiting the market may be the only logical
choice for global vendors bleeding profits and struggling for share. The PC
divisions of HP and IBM are vulnerable to being spun off if their drag on
margins and profitability are deemed too great by their parent companies."

EX-CIA CHIEF WORRIES ABOUT INTERNET SECURITY
Former CIA Director George J. Tenet sees the Internet as "a potential
Achilles' heel" in the fight against terrorism, endangering "our financial
stability and physical security if the networks we are creating are not
protected." Calling for new cybersecurity measures, Tenet says: "I know that
these actions will be controversial in this age when we still think the
Internet is a free and open society with no control or accountability, but
ultimately the Wild West must give way to governance and control." He
believes that access to the Web might need to be limited to those who can
show they take security seriously. (UPI/Washington Times 3 Dec 2004)

JUDGE REJECTS COPYRIGHT CHALLENGE
A federal judge has rejected a challenge to several parts of copyright
law that plaintiffs in the case said unnecessarily keep certain works
out of the public domain. The nonprofit Internet Archive and the
Prelinger Archives argued that so-called orphan works--books that are
out of print, old films, and academic articles without significant
commercial value--should be easier to archive and make publicly
available. At issue in the case was the plaintiffs' contention that
current law fundamentally alters the scope of copyright because it does
not require owners of works to apply for copyright protection, instead
granting protection irrespective of whether it is sought. The judge in
the case disagreed, issuing her ruling without hearing arguments.
Jennifer S. Granick, executive director of the Center for Internet and
Society at Stanford University, which was involved on behalf of the
plaintiffs, said the judge's ruling was improper and that the
plaintiffs would appeal.

BRITISH PROGRAM TEACHES SCHOOLCHILDREN ABOUT COPYRIGHT
British Music Rights (BMR), a group that represents songwriters and
composers, is sponsoring a program to educate British schoolchildren
between the ages of 11 and 14 about copyright and music piracy. The
group has put together education packs that include lessons about
copyright, royalties, and downloading music on the Internet, as well as
how these issues affect the creation of original work. Music piracy in
the United Kingdom is blamed for a steady decline in recent years in CD
sales and for significant financial losses to recording companies and
to artists and songwriters. In addition to limiting copyright
violations, the education packs, which have been requested by more than
1,600 schools, are designed to prepare children for possible careers in
the music industry. Guy Chambers, one of the songwriters who has
publicly supported the BMR campaign, said the education packs will help
shield young people who might pursue a career in the music industry
from "unscrupulous" individuals.

S. KOREAN OFFICIALS INVESTIGATE CELL-PHONE CHEATING
Officials in South Korea are investigating a suspected widespread ring
of using cell phones to cheat on the country's university admissions
examinations. Cultural pressure to succeed academically is intense in
South Korea, so much so that some students commit suicide as a result
of poor academic showing. As noted by Jung Bong-mun, an Education
Ministry official who works on college admission policy, student
cheating "is mainly due to pressure to do well in a test that will
decide their lives forever." Combined with nearly ubiquitous cell
phones, which provide new avenues for cheating, this pressure has led
to an unprecedented level of cheating on this year's exam, which was
taken by approximately 600,000 students. According to officials,
several hundred may have been involved in the scheme to send answers by
cell-phone text messages to those taking the test. Students reportedly
paid around USD$1,000 each, which leads authorities to suspect that in
many cases parents may be involved.

IBM CONSIDERS EXITING THE PC BUSINESS
IBM is reportedly negotiating a possible sale of its PC unit to Chinese
PC maker Lenovo Group, though neither company is commenting publicly at
this time. If such a transaction takes place, it would mark the end of
IBM's storied history with the PC, a market currently led by Dell and
HP. Analysts consistently agree, however, that the move would be good
for IBM, which has made no secret of its intentions to focus on
higher-margin operations such as software and computer services. In
particular, IBM executives have identified business process outsourcing
as a key opportunity for the company. For its part, Lenovo stands to
benefit significantly from acquiring IBM's PC business, which has in
recent years migrated much of its production to China. If such a deal
goes through, Lenovo would have access to U.S. markets, which have
traditionally been out of its reach, and would also own the very
popular ThinkPad series of notebook computers. As noted by IDC analyst
Roger Kay, in such a deal, "the IBM notebooks would be the prize."

TECHNOLOGY REVIEW
It would appear that the globalization of technology
is having more far flung effects than was predicted.
In recent elections around the world, including some
that are not reported much in the news, it would seem
that cell phones have been one of the primary tools of
the election monitors in kicking vote fraud to the curb.
Election monitors are counting the ballots as they go
though the official counting process and then calling
in the results immediately. . .if the total is altered
by the time the official results are released, everyone
already knows cheating is going on. These results are
being forwarded to the citizenry by new private radio
stations that were not in existence until recently.
Apparently in some regions these sources are regarded
as the most accurate reflections of actual voting,
since corruption is so rampant between the polling
place and the central authorities.
*Headline News Avoided By Most Of The Major U.S. Media
REMEMBER THE FLAP ABOUT SAT SCORES FALLING TO 90% OF WWII LEVELS?
The main reason was stated as the US scores should not be compared
to the scores of other countries because only the highest level of
students take such tests in other countries.
FALSE:
US population is 296 million of which 1,419,007 take the SATs.
South Korean population is 48 million of which 600,000 take their test.
US has 6 times as many people, but only 2.3 times as many student tests.
[Figures are for 2002-2003 academic year]
[BTW, the US barely average 25th in international testing.]

Is 'Fair Use' in Peril?
The far-reaching Intellectual Property Protection Act would deny
consumers many of the freedoms they take for granted.
By Eric Hellweg
November 19, 2004
Do you like fast-forwarding through commercials on a television
program you've recorded? How much do you like it? Enough to go to
jail if you're caught doing it? If a new copyright and
intellectual property omnibus bill sitting on Congress's desk
passes, that may be the choice you'll face.
How can this be possible? Because language that makes
fast-forwarding through commercials illegal-no doubt inserted at
the behest of lobbyists for the advertising industry-was inserted
into a bill that would allow people to fast forward past
objectionable sections of a recorded movie (and I bet you already
thought that was OK). And that's but one, albeit scary, scenario
that may come to pass if the Intellectual Property Protection Act
is enacted into law. Deliberations on this legislation will be

The National Science Foundation, as per the current Omnibus Bill,
is losing $30 million each for research grants and education programs,
as part of a total loss of over $100 million for the coming year,
as the US continues its push to continually whittle down this source
of some of the greatest recent research and inventions.

NEW MININIM WAGE INCREASE IS ACTUALLY A DECREASE, COUNTING INFLATION
You may have heard the great success stories that the new minimum wage
is finally going to be put into effect at $7.15, up from previous $5.15.
BUT. . .what you don't hear is that in 2007, when this increase will be
finally in effect, the actual value of $7.15 will be only about $4.77,
given a ten year inflation rate of approximately 4%.
People will try to tell you that it's much lower than 4%, but if so,
that would only raise the $4.77 to the average buying power of the
last 50 years, as in the table below. . .however, using Google to
search for "2003 inflation" the most recent figure I got was 4.4%
for December 2002, January 2003, and June 2003, but with various
disclaimers as usual, stating the previous year was abnormal.
[National Consumer Price Index (NCPI)
Decade Average in Current Dollars Average in 1997 Dollars
1950's $0.85 $5.02
1960's $1.29 $6.42
1970's $2.07 $6.30
1980's $3.33 $5.42
1990's $5.15 $5.15*
2000's $7.15 $4.77*

Here's what you MAY have heard in the news:
After years and years of wrangling, the Pennsylvania minimum wage finally
is going to move from $5.15/hour to $7.15/hour over the next few years.
The major reason given for fighting the increase was that corporations
in the neighoring states of Maryland and West Virginia would thus have
an economic advantage over those in Pennsylvania.
Question: Why do so many people pretend that politics is NOT about
the corporations versus the people?
I literally can't remember how long ago it was that the minimum wage
went to around $5, but it was a LONG time ago, and inflation has been
pretty stiff over those years, probably averaging 4-5%.
The new $7.15 Pennsylvania minimum wage, by the time it is fully
implented in 2007, will be at an inflation rate of about $1.50
when compared to the $5.15 rate in 1997. . .or 2/3 of $7.15 = $4.77
Workers will have lost $.37 per hour in wages, not to mention higher
taxes, higher health care, etc.

Recent classified documents from the CIA Station Chief in Iraq
and other senior CIA officials have indicated the situation in
Iraq is/was much more distastrous before the US election than
President Bush would have liked us to believe, and that the
current preparations for the Iraqi elections are taking place
in an environment that is equally disastrous.

*STRANGE QUOTE OF THE WEEK
REWRITING THE HISTORY OF THE 1968 CHICAGO POLICE RIOTS
You heard it here last week, before the official announcement!
[By the way, as predicted here, it appears that both Tom Brokaw
and Dan Rather will be marching off to join the other dinosaurs
in the near future, and I predict Peter Jennings will join them.
The average age of these three passed double the median age of
the United States years ago when the median was 33 years of age.
Their average age is now around 73 years old. Mr. Lehrer is
only just now coming up to 70.]
*PREDICTION OF THE WEEK [Last Week's]
New news anchors for the major networks will be being tested
on all the networks in the coming year or two, but the old
ones will be invited back for the next election.
*ODD STATISTICS OF THE WEEK
>From the New York times:
"But it turns out the e-book market has been changing course and,
though still tiny, has been growing at double-digit rates. It is, in
fact, the fastest-growing segment of the comparatively static
publishing world. Between 2002 and 2003, the number of e-books sold
rose 71 percent, according to the industry's trade association, the
Open eBook Forum. The industry posted record sales in the first
quarter of 2004, a 46 percent increase compared with the same period
last year. Still, last year's sales of 1.4 million downloadable books
are minuscule compared with the more than 2.2 billion books sold in
the United States in 2003."
*
US health spending shot up 9.3 percent in 2002 to $1.6 trillion,
3 to 4 times the average inflation rate. However, the average
health and life expectancy figures barely increased at all.

ELECTRONIC PAYMENTS HAVE OVERTAKEN CHECKS [From Newsscan, details above]
In 2003, Americans made 44.5 billion payments via electronic
transactions, compared to only 36.7 billion payments by paper checks. The
trend toward electronic purchases has been accelerated by strong growth in
the popularity of debit cards, which can now be used to buy almost anything.
Jean Ann Fox of the Consumer Federation of America says, "They're quick and
easy. You don't stand there and hold up everybody in line behind you. Plus,
folks are moving toward electronic banking and paying bills electronically."
But she warns: "It's getting very confusing for consumers, and companies
have not upgraded their protections." (Washington Post 6 Dec 2004)

CORAL REEF DAMAGE RISING WORLDWIDE
from Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Only about 30 percent of the world's coral reefs are
healthy, down from 41 percent two years ago, according to a study released
Monday that lists global warming as the top threat.
The study found as many as one-fifth of the world's coral reefs have been
destroyed. Another half are damaged but could be saved, it said.
Coral reefs are among the oldest and most diverse forms of life. They
provide food and shelter to fish and protect shores from erosion.

Here is some follow up information sent in about our article on Bhopal
1. There was no siren and no warning--people woke with the gases
already in their faces, filling their mouths, noses and lungs with
excruciating pain.
2. NONE of safety systems were functioning on the night of the
disaster six in all.
3. Union Carbide under-invested in an inherently hazardous facility
located in a crowded neighborhood, used admittedly unproven designs,
stored lethal MIC in reckless quantities, dismantled safety systems
and cut down on safety staff and training in an effort to cut costs.
4. Union Carbide and its new owner, Dow Chemical, continue to blame
the disaster on a fictitious and unnamed worker, and deny their own
negligence.
5. In the wake of the disaster, Carbide claimed that the gas was
harmless, when it knew it was lethal (as described in its own manuals).
6. Dow-Carbide refuses to share all its medical information about the
health effects of the gas it released, MIC--information that doctors
could use to save lives--claiming the information is a "trade secret".
7. Union Carbide fled India and abandoned its Bhopal plant, leaving
thousands of tons of dangerous chemicals behind, which are now
poisoning the water of the same people Carbide first poisoned 20 years
ago. As more people grow sick, Dow-Carbide still refuses to clean up
its pollution in Bhopal.
8. The Union Carbide Corporation, charged criminally with "culpable
homicide" in the wake of the disaster, has refused to appear in court
or stand trial. Union Carbide is now an international fugitive from
justice, considered an "absconder" under Indian law.
Bhopal remains one of the world's worst examples of corporate crime,
but the people of Bhopal continue to persevere in their call for justice.

>From David Price, about #14240, Reviews, by Oscar Wilde:
For those interested: This is a collection of the various (mainly
literary) reviews that Oscar Wilde wrote during his career. Robert Ross,
Wilde's friend and literary executor, put the collection together in 1908

>From David Widger, regarding #14282, Properties of Shrowde Shrews and Honest
Wives, by Desiderius Erasmus:
Notes: This is from blackletter Englyshe dated 1557. One illustration is
included. The text version preserves the line breaks of the original, the
html version has been treated similar to drama and starts a new paragraph
for each change of speaker. One illustration of the title page is

*** Permanent Requests For Assistance:
DISTRIBUTED PROOFREADERS NEEDS CONTENT, PROOFERS AND SCANNER TYPES
Please contact us at:
dphelp@pgdp.net
if you would like to know more about the Distributed Proofreaders.
Thanks to very good recent publicity, the Distributed Proofreading
project has greatly accelerated its pace. Please visit the site:
http://www.pgdp.net
for more information about how you can help a lot, by
simply proofreading just a few pages per day, or more.
If you have a book that has been scanned, but not yet run
through OCR (optical character recognition) or proofed,
and you would like the Distributed Proofreaders to work on it,
please email dphelp@pgdp.net and we will get things started.
Also, DP is seeking public domain books not already in the
Project Gutenberg collection. To see what is already online,
visit http://ibiblio.org/gutenberg/GUTINDEX.ALL (a text file)
listing Project Gutenberg eBooks and is available for downloading.
Do you have Public Domain books you would like to see in the archive?
Can they be destructively scanned? If so send them to the Distributed
Proofreading Team! Please email dphelp@pgdp.net with your geographic
location. You will be given the address of the nearest high-speed scanner
(note that the high-speed scanner requires destruction of the book(s) which
will not be returned). We have high-speed scanners currently located in
the east, west and central portions of the US to make shipping easier.
Please make sure that any books you send are _not_ already in the archive
and please check them against David's "In Progress" list at:
http://www.dprice48.freeserve.co.uk/GutIP.html
to ensure no one is currently working on them. It would also be helpful if
you obtain copyright clearance before mailing the books, and send the 'OK'
lines to
dphelp@pgdp.net
Do you like to work on an entire book at once but don't have the time
or technology to do the scanning, OCR, and initial proofing yourself?
Distributed Proofreaders has the perfect solution! Just send us email
telling us that you are interested in post-processing and we will help
find a project you would like to work on.

With 14,571 eBooks online as of December 01, 2004 it now takes an average
of 100,000,000 readers gaining a nominal value of $0.69 from each book,
for Project Gutenberg to have currently given away $1,000,000,000,000
[One Trillion Dollars] in books.
100 million readers is only ~1.5% of the world's population!
This "cost" is down from about $.95 when we had 10,069 eBooks a year ago
Can you imagine ~14,571 books each costing ~$.26 less a year later???
Or. . .would this say it better?
Can you imagine ~14,571 books each costing 1/3 less a year later???
At 14,571 eBooks in 33 Years and 04.75 Months We Averaged
436 Per Year [We do about 3/4 that much per month these days!]
36.1 Per Month
1.19 Per Day
At 3664 eBooks Done In The 336 Days Of 2004 We Averaged
11 Per Day
78 Per Week
341 Per Month
The production statistics are calculated based on full weeks'
production; each production-week starts/ends Wednesday noon,
starts with the first Wednesday of January. January 7th was
the first Wednesday of 2004, and thus ended PG's production
year of 2003 and began the production year of 2004 at noon.
This year there will be 52 Wednesdays, thus no extra week.

3334 New eBooks So Far in 2004

THE IPOD HALO EFFECT
[Not to mention that people are reading eBooks on the iPods!]
The popularity of Apple's iPod music players is having an unexpected
effect -- six percent of iPod users report having dumped their old PCs for
Apple Macs, and an additional 7% say they're planning to do the same. Among
the reasons cited are ease of use, a focus on entertainment and the
perception of better security. Gene Munster, senior research analyst at
Piper Jaffray, which conducted the study, says the iPod halo effect will
boost Apple's bottom line for a while to come: "We're in the very early
innings of a multiyear trend." However, to maintain the buzz, Apple will
need to stay ahead of the pack with new design trends. "They've got to keep
that 'cool factor' going. If they don't, they're in trouble," says Munster.

PC MAKERS FACING HARD TIMES
[And we wondered why Intel was withholding the 4Ghz Pentium a year ago.]
Three of the top 10 PC makers may drop out of the global PC market by
2007, starved by stagnant demand during the 2006-2008 timeframe, according
to a new report by Gartner. The near-term forecast is a little brighter --
Gartner predicts annual shipment increases of 11.3% and annual revenue
increases of about 4.7% between 2003 and 2005. But by 2006, most
corporations and consumers will have replaced their oldest computers,
completing the latest PC replacement cycle, which occurs about every four
years for PCs and every three years for laptops. Emerging markets such as
China will boost revenues during that time, but not enough to offset slack
demand elsewhere, says Gartner, which declined to say which companies might
drop out of the PC race. "The bottom line here is that the vendor landscape
will look very different in the next couple of years," says a Gartner
analyst, adding that there's still time for PC makers to enact cost-cutting
measures that would enable them to survive the anticipated drought.

CYBERSPACE ACTIVISM
[More below in Edupage section]
The German-based Web portal Lycos Europe is offering a screensaver
program that chokes spam servers by flooding them with junk traffic. The
company argues that what it's doing is perfectly legal, but former FCC chief
technologist David Farber comments: "You don't stop a bad thing by being bad
yourself. The idea of somebody coming and hitting you and you hitting back,
you both end up very hurt. It just aggravates an already serious problem."
And noted computer security expert Dorothy Denning, a professor of defense
analysis at the Navy Postgraduate School, points out that cyberspace
activism of the kind offered by Lycos Europe is likely to have only minimal
impact on spam because "the cost of adding extra bandwidth may be worth the
reward" that spammers get from their activities. She adds: "The interesting
question is whether or not that company [an anti-spam activist company]
might be liable under some law, and would probably be liable, certainly, at
least under a lawsuit by the spammers." (AP 30 Nov 2004)

LOWER PRICES ON THIN TVs (BUY NOW!)
A glut of liquid crystal display (LCD) flat-panel televisions will
cause prices to drop by as much as 30 percent over the course of 2005;
however, electronics retailers would just as soon not hear that kind of
talk, and Lee Simonson of Best Buy admits: "We do not want to talk about
predictions of price drops. We want people to buy now." According to a
survey by the Consumer Electronics Association, the most desired holiday
gift this season is a plasma TV, but Mike Fidler, an executive vice
president at Sony, says that LCD TV's will drop so much in price that plasma
will go away in three to five years.(AP/New York Times 29 Nov 2004)

WIRELESS IN PHILADELPHIA
Verizon has struck a deal with the city of Philadelphia to provide
wireless Internet access as a municipal service. A spokeswoman for
Philadelphia Mayor John F. Street says the two parties "reached an
understanding that protects our interests and allows us to move forward with
the Wireless Philadelphia initiative." Under the Pennsylvania legislation,
any political subdivision would have to get the permission of the local
telephone company to provide a telecommunications service for a fee,
including broadband Internet, and if the company rejects the plan it would
have to offer a similar service within 14 months.

SCREEN SAVER TO FIGHT SPAM
A new screensaver by Internet portal Lycos is designed to fight spam by
running up the costs of operating Web sites that sell goods commonly
advertised in spam e-mail. Rather than targeting the e-mails themselves
or their sources, which are often spoofed, the new tactic focuses on
the Web sites where spam directs consumers. Using blacklists--from
organizations such as Spamcop--of companies that profit from spam, the
screensaver sends repeated requests to those companies' Web sites for
information about their products. The goal, according to officials at
Lycos, is not to overload the sites to the point of failure but to
drive up the costs for companies to respond to so many hits on their
Web sites. The screensaver also has been shown to slow traffic on some
targeted sites by as much as 85 percent. The hope, according to Malte
Pollmann of Lycos Europe, is that there will be a general decline in
the amount of spam sent if the vendors who benefit from spam are forced
to pay much higher costs to maintain their Web sites. The screensaver,
which can be downloaded beginning in December, is available to all
users, regardless of whether they are registered users of Lycos.

*Headline News Avoided By Most Of The Major U.S. Media
20 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF BHOPAL, AS MANY WERE KILLED AS IN 9/11
It would appear that the death rate from the Union Carbide plant
in Bhopal 20 years ago this week was nearly identical to the total
deaths from the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center 3 years ago.
In addition, some 11,000 people Bhopal residents were disabled by
the poison gas that was created when water mixed with pesticide.
[Since I first wrote this, further ressearch shows over 20,000 died.
Any further data would be appreciated]
Recent televised reports show that Union Carbide left behind clearly
marked poisons when they abandoned the Bhopal plant shortly after.
Apparently the Union Carbide headquarters of Danbury, Connecticut,
the major stockholder of the Bhopal Union Carbide India Limited plant,
appears to have paid a fee to the government of India, and considers
the case closed, even though thousands of Bhopal families appear to
have been ignored, and the neither the contamination from the explosion
nor from the other poisons intentionally left behind have been cleaned up,
even to this day.
*STRANGE QUOTE OF THE WEEK
REWRITING THE HISTORY OF THE 1968 CHICAGO POLICE RIOTS
"The police and demonstrators were going after each other.
The protestors were provoking the police." Tom Brokaw 11/16/04
This seems to be quite at odds with his former commentaries,
which you can find searching "tom brokaw police chicago 1968"
in which he says he fought with his parents "we had a huge fight"
and that he thought his "parents who were FDR working class democrats"
"would be very sympathetic towards the demonstrators."
Apparently you really do get more conservative as you get older.
[1968 was Mr. Brokaw's first year of convention coverage.]
[By the way, as predicted here, it appears that both Tom Brokaw
and Dan Rather will be marching off to join the other dinosaurs
in the near future, and I predict Peter Jennings will join them.
The average age of these three passed double the median age of
the United States years ago when the median was 33 years of age.
Their average age is now around 73 years old. Mr. Lehrer is
only just now coming up to 70.]
and
>From a Nina Totenberg, Washingon, November 30, 2004, NPR Report:
A representative of a Georgia school district who fired a
teacher/coach in an alleged Title IX retaliation said the
case could not have been made "more clearer." This case,
in its entirety, is making its way to the Supreme Court.
and
John Wayne on "stealing" the America from its original inhabitants:
Q: "For years American Indians have played an important -- if subordinate --
role in your Westerns. Do you feel any empathy for them?"
A: "I don't feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from them,
if that's what you're asking. Our so-called stealing of this country from
them was just a matter of survival. There were great numbers of people who
needed new land, and the Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for
themselves."
*PREDICTION OF THE WEEK
New news anchors for the major networks will be being tested
on all the networks in the coming year or two, but the old
ones will be invited back for the next election.
*ODD STATISTICS OF THE WEEK
INCREASING REPORTS OF AIDS IN AFRICA ON WORLD AIDS DAY
Sites in Africa are reporting 50% testing positive for HIV/AIDS,
and that more women are testing positive than men.
FIREFOX TAKES A BITE OUT OF IE
The percentage of Web surfers using Microsoft's Internet Explorer
browser has fallen below 90%, with many of those users switching over to
Mozilla's Firefox. According to a survey by OneStat.com, IE's market share
has dropped 5% since May to 88.9%, while Mozilla browsers -- including
Firefox -- have garnered an additional 5% in the same time period. Firefox's
goal is to capture 10% of the market by the end of 2005. OneStat compiled
the statistical comparisons from two million Internet users in 100 countries.

WHERE ARE SADDAM'S BILLIONS?
The UN has admitted that it appears Saddam Hussein conned/bilked
various UN committees out of a total of at least $21 billion.
So far there appears to be little or no trace of where he put it.

Is 'Fair Use' in Peril?
The far-reaching Intellectual Property Protection Act would deny
consumers many of the freedoms they take for granted.
By Eric Hellweg
November 19, 2004
Do you like fast-forwarding through commercials on a television
program you've recorded? How much do you like it? Enough to go to
jail if you're caught doing it? If a new copyright and
intellectual property omnibus bill sitting on Congress's desk
passes, that may be the choice you'll face.
How can this be possible? Because language that makes
fast-forwarding through commercials illegal-no doubt inserted at
the behest of lobbyists for the advertising industry-was inserted
into a bill that would allow people to fast forward past
objectionable sections of a recorded movie (and I bet you already
thought that was OK). And that's but one, albeit scary, scenario
that may come to pass if the Intellectual Property Protection Act
is enacted into law. Deliberations on this legislation will be
one of the tasks for the lame-duck Congress that commenced this week.

ANTI-EVOLUTION TEACHINGS GAIN FOOTHOLD IN U.S. SCHOOLS
from San Francisco Chronicle
Dover, Pa. -- The way they used to teach the origin of the species to high
school students in this sleepy town of 1,800 people in southern
Pennsylvania, said local school board member Angie Yingling
disapprovingly, was that "we come from chimpanzees and apes."
Not anymore.
The school board has ordered that biology teachers at Dover Area High
School make students "aware of gaps/problems" in the theory of evolution.
Their ninth-grade curriculum now must include the theory of "intelligent
design," which posits that life is so complex and elaborate that some
greater wisdom has to be behind it.

.:: HOW TO GET EBOOKS FROM PROJECT GUTENBERG ::.
The easiest way to obtain our eBooks is at our search page at
http://gutenberg.net/find.shtml
which allows searching by title, author or eBook number; there is also
an Advanced Search page which allows for additional search criteria
(note that our newer postings may not yet be indexed for all additional
criteria). And please note: you can now obtain a listing by language
at the above link.
Mirrors (copies) of the complete collection are available around the
world, and you can select one nearer to your location from the link on
the search results page. To see a listing of mirror sites, and locate
the one nearest to you, visit:
http://gutenberg.net/list.shtml
If you prefer to download eBooks via other methods than from the search
page, and need additional information, please refer to the file
GUTINDEX.ALL, available for viewing or downloading at:
http://www.gutenberg.net/GUTINDEX.ALL
That file contains descriptions and explanations about the filenaming
process, directory structure, file formats, and more.
And to directly access the file directories:
http://gutenberg.net/dirs/
Please note that the Project Gutenberg Production Team continues the
process of manually re-posting those eBooks originally posted prior to
Nov 2003 to the new filenaming and directory system (based on the eBook
number). This process includes some file maintenance (repairing,
correcting and re-formatting to current PG standards where practicable).
These re-postings are noted in the "corrections" listings below. More
information can be found in the file GUTINDEX.ALL mentioned above.

[ This Week's Other Stuff ]
=============================================================================
This week, elucidation comes from the inimitable David Widger, who sends
along the following "clarification" regarding the dates of the various
Pepys' Diaries:
Note: The dates given in Pepys' Diaries are confusing to readers. The
months of January, February and most of March are designated as in two
years: for example January 1668/1669. By our present method this is
January 1669. In the 1893 edition of "Pepys" edited by Wheatley he
explains:
"The year did not legally begin in England before the 25th of March until
the act for altering the style fixed the 1st of January as the first-day
of the year, and previous to 1752 the year extended from March 25th to
the following March 24th. Thus since 1752 we have been in the habit of
putting the two dates for the month of January and February and March
1 to 24 in all years previous to 1752. Practically however, many persons
considered the year to commence with January 1st as it will be seen Pepys
did. The 1st of January was considered as New Year's Day long before
Pepys's time. The fiscal year has not been altered, and the national
accounts are still reckoned from old Lady Day, which falls on the 6th of
April."
Henry B. Wheatley, F.S.A. 1893
(Ed.: I'm looking forward to the explanation of "old Lady Day"! <g>)

Milestone: This past week saw the 100th eBook in Finnish posted.

DISTRIBUTED PROOFREADERS NEEDS CONTENT, PROOFERS AND SCANNER TYPES
Please contact us at:
dphelp@pgdp.net
if you would like to know more about the Distributed Proofreaders.
Thanks to very good recent publicity, the Distributed Proofreading
project has greatly accelerated its pace. Please visit the site:
http://www.pgdp.net
for more information about how you can help a lot, by
simply proofreading just a few pages per day, or more.
If you have a book that has been scanned, but not yet run
through OCR (optical character recognition) or proofed,
and you would like the Distributed Proofreaders to work on it,
please email dphelp@pgdp.net and we will get things started.
Also, DP is seeking public domain books not already in the
Project Gutenberg collection. To see what is already online,
visit http://ibiblio.org/gutenberg/GUTINDEX.ALL (a text file)
listing Project Gutenberg eBooks and is available for downloading.
Do you have Public Domain books you would like to see in the archive?
Can they be destructively scanned? If so send them to the Distributed
Proofreading Team! Please email dphelp@pgdp.net with your geographic
location. You will be given the address of the nearest high-speed scanner
(note that the high-speed scanner requires destruction of the book(s) which
will not be returned). We have high-speed scanners currently located in
the east, west and central portions of the US to make shipping easier.
Please make sure that any books you send are _not_ already in the archive
and please check them against David's "In Progress" list at:
http://www.dprice48.freeserve.co.uk/GutIP.html
to ensure no one is currently working on them. It would also be helpful if
you obtain copyright clearance before mailing the books, and send the 'OK'
lines to
dphelp@pgdp.net
Do you like to work on an entire book at once but don't have the time
or technology to do the scanning, OCR, and initial proofing yourself?
Distributed Proofreaders has the perfect solution! Just send us email
telling us that you are interested in post-processing and we will help
find a project you would like to work on.

Have We Given Away A Trillion Books/Dollars Yet???
Statistical Review
In the 44 weeks of this year, we have produced 3577 new eBooks.
It took us from 1971 to 2000 to produce our FIRST 3577 eBooks!!!
That's 44 WEEKS as Compared to ~31.5 YEARS!!!
Here's a sample of what books we were doing around eBook #3577
Dec 2002 Private Life of Napoleon, V1, by Constant [NB#18][nc01vxxx.xxx] 3568
Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte, Complete, by Bourrienne 3567
Dec 2002 Memoirs of Napoleon, V16, by Bourrienne [NB#16][nb16vxxx.xxx] 3566
[Two multivolume sets of Napoleon.]
With 14,484 eBooks online as of November 24, 2004 it now takes an average
of 100,000,000 readers gaining a nominal value of $0.69 from each book,
for Project Gutenberg to have currently given away $1,000,000,000,000
[One Trillion Dollars] in books.
100 million readers is only ~1.5% of the world's population!
This "cost" is down from about $.96 when we had 10,069 eBooks a year ago
Can you imagine ~14,484 books each costing ~$.27 less a year later???
Or. . .would this say it better?
Can you imagine ~14,484 books each costing 1/3 less a year later???
At 14,484 eBooks in 33 Years and 04.75 Months We Averaged
434 Per Year [We do about 3/4 that much per month these days!]
36.1 Per Month
1.19 Per Day
At 3577 eBooks Done In The 335 Days Of 2004 We Averaged
11 Per Day
78 Per Week
334 Per Month
The production statistics are calculated based on full weeks'
production; each production-week starts/ends Wednesday noon,
starts with the first Wednesday of January. January 7th was
the first Wednesday of 2004, and thus ended PG's production
year of 2003 and began the production year of 2004 at noon.
This year there will be 52 Wednesdays, thus no extra week.
*Flashback!!!
3334 New eBooks So Far in 2004
It took us ~31 years for the first 3324 !
That's the 9.75 months of 2004 as Compared to ~31 years!!!
*Headline News from NewsScan and Edupage
[PG Editor's Comments In Brackets]
>From NewsScan:
BROADBAND USE UP, BUT U.S. STILL LAGS FAR BEHIND
[In a related story, AOL has indicated it will cease providing broadband
service in in the entire southeastern United States in January.]
A Bush administration report, titled "A Nation Online: Entering the
Broadband Age," notes that the number of Americans using broadband Internet
connections doubled between 2001 and late 2003, but the country as a whole
still lags far behind many other nations, including South Korea, Taiwan and
Canada. The report also points to a widening gap between the digital haves
and have-nots. Only 25% of rural households have a broadband connection,
compared with 40% for urban areas, and only one-in-seven blacks and fewer
than one-in-eight Hispanics lives in a household with high-speed Internet
service. "It shows we continue to have a significant divide between urban
and rural America in the infrastructure of the 21st century," says Gregory
L. Rohde, a top telecom advisor during the Clinton administration.
Significant numbers of rural Americans complained there were no broadband
services available where they live. "This is lousy," says Harris Miller,
head of the Information Technology Association of America. "We're just not
keeping up with our competitors. We're not even keeping up with countries
we don't consider competitors. It's not acceptable." (AP 23 Nov 2004)
<http://apnews.excite.com/article/20041123/D86HL5SG0.html>
[Here's the original AOL story from 12 days ago.]
AOL WINDS DOWN BROADBAND SERVICE
Earlier this year America Online stopped signing up new
broadband customers -- and now it's telling existing broadband
subscribers in nine Southern states that they'll need to find a new
broadband carrier by mid-January, or face being moved to dial-up
service. Broadband customers affected by this decision are residents
of Florida, Kentucky, Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi,
Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina.

TELCOS THREATENED BY MUNICIPAL WIFI
[Telcos fight back with army of well-paid lobbyists]
Dozens of municipalities around the country are installing WiFi
networks in order to provide citizens with low- or no-cost wireless
Internet access -- a phenomenon that has raised the ire of large telephone
and cable companies, who see their lucrative broadband businesses eroding.
In response, telcos and cable companies are pushing states to pass
legislation that could make such municipal networks illegal. Last week,
after intensive lobbying by Verizon, the Pennsylvania General Assembly
passed a bill with a deeply buried provision that would make it illegal for
any "political subdivision" to provide to the public "for any compensation
any telecommunications services, including advanced and broadband services
within the service territory of a local exchange telecommunications company
operating under a network-modernization plan." Verizon is the local
exchange operator for most of Pennsylvania and is planning a major
fiber-optic cable rollout. Similar bills have passed in Utah, Louisiana and
Florida. Critics say the telco giants' clout is stifling broadband
expansion in the U.S., but the telcos argue it's unfair for them to have to
compete against local governments, which have easy access to capital and
pay no taxes. (Wall Street Journal 23 Nov 2004)

MAKE INCISION HERE: RFID TAG USED IN SURGERY
[Tired of hearing they cut off the wrong leg?]
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved use of radio
frequency ID (RFID) tags to ensure that physicians perform the right surgery
on the right patient. Manufactured by SurgiChip Inc., the radio tag is
encoded with the patient's name and the site, type, and date of the surgery;
the patient helps stick the adhesive-backed tag near the site of the surgery
and workers in the hospital's operating room scan the tag to compare that
information with the patient's chart. (AP/San Jose Merury News 19 Nov 2004)

TRACKING SCHOOLCHILDREN WITH COMPUTER TAGS
A number of school districts around the country are implementing
systems that use radio frequency identification (RFID) tags to track
the whereabouts of schoolchildren. In Spring, Texas, the district's
28,000 students will be given ID cards with RFID chips in them. Card
readers on the district's school busses track where and when students
get on and off the busses and send that information to police and
school administrators. In the event that a child is reported missing,
authorities would use the system's data to help locate the child,
whether the student was kidnapped or simply went to another student's
home after school. A school district in Buffalo, New York, uses a
similar system at the doors of the school to track attendance. Despite
teething problems of the systems, not to mention concerns over cards
that are lost or traded by mischievous students, supporters said they
offer unique capacities to track students and reassure worried parents.
Critics of the systems, including the American Civil Liberties Union
and the Electronic Frontier Foundation, said they elevate security
concerns to the level of paranoia and represent an invasion of privacy.

THE COMING BATTLE: GOOGLE VERSUS MICROSOFT
Already competing against one other in Web search, free e-mail, and
techniques for searching individual computers, Google and Microsoft are
drifting into a war over control of the user experience now dominated by
Microsoft's Windows operating system. Industry-watchers say that Google
could make people less dependent on storing information on their
Microsoft-powered PCs and more dependent on free Web-based e-mail and search
functions accessible anywhere from any device regardless of operating
system, and analyst David Garrity says the real question is whether computer
buyers may one day simply decide that they no longer even need a Microsoft
operating system. (AP/Los Angeles Times 22 Nov 2004)

BRITISH LIBRARY GOES WIRELESS
Responding to reports showing strong demand for Internet access,
officials at the British Library have announced the implementation of a
wireless network in the library's reading rooms, auditorium,
restaurants, and outdoor area. A study recently showed that 86 percent
of library patrons carry laptops and that 16 percent came to the
library to use it as a business center. Many visitors routinely leave
the library to check their e-mail at a local cafe, and surveys showed
that many people would like to check their e-mail, as well as access
the library catalog, while in the library. The service will cost users
4.50 British pounds per hour or 35 pounds per month. A pilot program
has been available in the library since May, and usage logs indicate
that in that time, the network has seen 1,200 sessions per week, making
it the busiest hot spot in London. BBC, 18 November 2004
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4020241.stm
[Anyone with even the slightest knowledge of statistics will realize
that 86% of any population is not likely to be carrying laptops. . .
this very strange looking statistic is due to the fact that this is
not a library in the sense most of use. It is not open to the public,
other than a few rooms that look more like a museum, which is what it
really is, by most definitions. One actually has to pass a test to
gain entrance. . .to be a "reader." Not only do 86% of the "readers"
bring laptops, but they are incredibly "well-heeled" even by London
standards, as I observed myself when visiting there last month.]
COLLEGE BLOCKS HOTMAIL AND YAHOO TO FIGHT SPAM
Frustrated with the problem of spam and unable to afford antispam
software packages, officials at Guam Community College have implemented
a policy that blocks all mail from Hotmail or Yahoo--favorites with
spammers--from being delivered to college e-mail accounts. Exceptions
are made for return addresses that are on the institution's list of
legitimate addresses. Currently, the college only provides e-mail
accounts to faculty and staff, and many students rely on Hotmail or
Yahoo accounts to keep in touch with faculty or to turn in assignments,
prompting many complaints about the policy. The policy has resulted in
significantly less spam, and the college's technical staff are
spending much less time dealing with the spam that does get through.
Still, many members of the faculty do not support the policy, saying
that whatever benefits it provides do not outweigh the problems it
causes. Joe St. Sauver of the University of Oregon Computing Center and
an expert on spam issues said the tactic of blocking Hotmail and Yahoo
has been tried before but that most institutions dropped it because
they were not happy with the results.

*Headline News Avoided By Most Of The Major U.S. Media
Sir Mark Thatcher, son of "The Iron Lady," British Prime
Minister Margaret Thatcher, is finally being forced to
answer questions in open court concerning charges that
he was planning a coup to take over Equatorial Guinea,
a country rich in oil.
The Cape High Court ruled today that he must face court
tomorrow [or the next day, depending on sources], and he
may be extradited later from South Africa to face more
direct charges in Equatorial Guinea. This ruling has
finally come after months of legal wrangling since his
arrest last August in his suburban Cape Town home.
Dozens of mercenaries and planners have been arrested
in Equatorial Guinea and in Zimbabwe, where one of Sir
Mark's friends has already been convicted.
In earlier arrests on March 7, about 70 men were taken
at the Harare airport, mostly South Africans led by
former SAS officer Simon Mann, a graduate of Eton.
Most of these have been charged with violations of
South Africa's foreign military assistance act and
other charges are pending in other countries.
It would appear all involved deny any participation
in the failed coup attempt, including Severo Moto,
who mysteriously appeared in nearby Mali just before
the coup attempt, apparently ready to be the new leader
if the right-wing network of businessmen had been
successful in taking over the country. Mr. Moto has
been reported to have been involved in several previous
such failed coup attempts, including one in which he
was arrested aboard a boat containing military supplies
for one of the previous events in 1997. Government
sources in Spain confirm Mr. Moto's involvement in
these events over the years.
Apparently one of Thatcher's friends has already been
convicted in Zimbabwe.
"Clockwork Orange" Medical Plan Finally Outlawed By Chinese
The Chinese announced that they will no longer be supporting
medical testing on hundreds of human beings in which they
remove or disable the portions of the brain receptive to
certain drugs. This technology was inherited from Russia,
where no such annoucement has been heard.
*STRANGE QUOTE OF THE WEEK
>From Jim Carrey:
"Prozac is like a low level of despair."
"Everything is just OK."
"You're not getting any answers."
"People need motivation to do anything.
I don't think human beings learn anything without desperation."
*PREDICTION OF THE WEEK
We will find that Russia only signed the Kyoto accords
to make Bush look bad for not signing, and to gain an
earlier membership in the World Trade Organization [WTO].
*ODD STATISTICS OF THE WEEK
Martha Stewart made $10-$20 million this week, even in jail,
due to her ownership of millions of shares of K-Mart, which
jumped in price when the Sears merger was announced.
Camden, NJ, named "US Most Dangerous City."
[Camden is just across from Phildephia, PA]
Newton, MA, Boston suburb, named the safest.
Murder rate is 0 in Newton, highest in Camden.
$1 of each $7 in the U.S. is spent on health care. 14%
Housing for those above the povertey level equals 20%
Housing for those around the poverty level equals 30%
Housing for those below the poverty level equals 40%
Transportation costs for those above poverty lines 20%
Transportation costs for those below poverty lines 40%
Obviously these studies aren't all from the same year
using the same information base or we would run 100%+
without much effort; however, it should be duly noted
that for those under the poverty line, the sum of all
food, housing, and transportation leaves little room.
Clothing, education, etc., add up to very little.
Back to health care, it all started during the Reagan years:
What Americans spend on health care increased 117% between 1980-1988.

=============================================================================
[ This Week's Other Stuff ]
=============================================================================
"For those wishing to know. . .", David Price provides elucidation on a
couple of this week's postings:
~ ~ ~
About #14062, Miscellanies, by Oscar Wilde:
It's a collection of odds and ends by Oscar Wilde. We have a good number
of them already in Gutenberg but some new ones are here, together with an
introduction by Wilde's friend Robert Ross.
About #14061, Lady Byron Vindicated, by Harriet Beecher Stowe, David sends
along the following note submitted by volunteer Les Bowler:
The poet, George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron married Anne Milbanke in 1815,
but the marriage was short-lived -- Anne returned to her parents with a
daughter of the marriage after about a year and didn't see her husband
again. She seems to have been a formal, rather religious person, while
Byron had a reputation for scandalous behaviour both before and after the
marriage, and rumours abounded as to the causes of the split.
In 1869, after both Lord Byron and Anne Milbanke were dead, and following
the publication of a book by the Countess Guiccioli, the mistress of Lord
Byron, certain English periodicals published articles laying the blame
entirely upon Lady Byron, and branding her "a liar" and "the vilest of
criminals" -- all this with virtually no response from Lady Byron's
friends.
Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, who had known Lady Byron for some years
before her death in 1860, then felt it her duty to publish "Lady Byron
Vindicated" in defence of her late friend. The book proved to be
controversial, with Lord Byron's friends denying many of the allegations,
including incest, referred to by Mrs. Stowe, but on the whole it seems a
quite convincing explanation of the reasons for the break-down of the
marriage.
~ ~ ~
About #14016, John Knox and the Reformation, by Andrew Lang:
For those interested: John Knox was a famous Scottish protestant who was
very involved in the politics of the reformation. Until Lang wrote this
book it was established practise to hold Knox as a sort of saint. In
this book Lang goes through Knox's life, writings and works - and paints
a very unflattering picture of him.
As an aside: outside of religion Knox is best known, or rather imfamous,
for writing "The First Blast of the Trumpet against the monstrous
regiment of Women" - a text which is available from Project Gutenberg.
[EBook #9660 -- Ed.]
For another opinion on John Knox, folk might like to read Robert Louis
Stevenson's article on "Knox and His Relations to Women" - which appears
in the book "Familiar Studies of Men and Books" - again available from
Gutenberg. [EBook #425 -- Ed.]

Thanks to very good recent publicity, the Distributed Proofreading
project has greatly accelerated its pace. Please visit the site:
http://www.pgdp.net
for more information about how you can help a lot, by
simply proofreading just a few pages per day, or more.
If you have a book that has been scanned, but not yet run
through OCR (optical character recognition) or proofed,
and you would like the Distributed Proofreaders to work on it,
please email dphelp@pgdp.net and we will get things started.
Also, DP is seeking public domain books not already in the
Project Gutenberg collection. To see what is already online,
visit http://ibiblio.org/gutenberg/GUTINDEX.ALL (a text file)
listing Project Gutenberg eBooks and is available for downloading.
Do you have Public Domain books you would like to see in the archive?
Can they be destructively scanned? If so send them to the Distributed
Proofreading Team! Please email dphelp@pgdp.net with your geographic
location. You will be given the address of the nearest high-speed scanner
(note that the high-speed scanner requires destruction of the book(s) which
will not be returned). We have high-speed scanners currently located in
the east, west and central portions of the US to make shipping easier.
Please make sure that any books you send are _not_ already in the archive
and please check them against David's "In Progress" list at:

Have We Given Away A Trillion Books/Dollars Yet???
Statistical Review
In the 45 weeks of this year, we have produced 3505 new eBooks.
It took us from 1971 to 2000 to produce our FIRST 3505 eBooks!!!
That's 45 WEEKS as Compared to ~31 YEARS!!!
With 14,412 eBooks online as of November 17, 2004 it now takes an average
of 100,000,000 readers gaining a nominal value of $0.69 from each book,
for Project Gutenberg to have currently given away $1,000,000,000,000
[One Trillion Dollars] in books.
100 million readers is only ~1.5% of the world's population!
This "cost" is down from about $.97 when we had 10,310 eBooks a year ago
Can you imagine ~14,412 books each costing ~$.28 less a year later???
Or. . .would this say it better?
Can you imagine ~14,412 books each costing 1/3 less a year later???
At 14,412 eBooks in 33 Years and 04.50 Months We Averaged
432 Per Year [We do about 3/4 that much per month these days!]
36.0 Per Month
1.18 Per Day
At 3505 eBooks Done In The 321 Days Of 2004 We Averaged
11 Per Day
78 Per Week
334 Per Month
The production statistics are calculated based on full weeks'
production; each production-week starts/ends Wednesday noon,
starts with the first Wednesday of January. January 7th was
the first Wednesday of 2004, and thus ended PG's production
year of 2003 and began the production year of 2004 at noon.
This year there will be 52 Wednesdays, thus no extra week.
*Flashback!!!
3334 New eBooks So Far in 2004
It took us ~31 years for the first 3324 !

[PG Editor's Comments In Brackets]
>From NewsScan:
TELECOMMUTING TAKES OFF AT TECH FIRMS
Thanks to better technology, such as collaborative software
applications, a number of technology firms are giving more workers
flexibility in how -- and where -- they do their jobs. When set up
properly, telecommuting and flextime are good for both employers and
workers, says Ellen Galinsky, president of the Families and Work Institute:
"Providing flexibility isn't a perk. Flexible work (options) are part of
effective companies." In fact, studies on telecommuting show that it
increases workers' average productivity by 5% to 20%, says Jack Nilles,
president of telecommuting consulting firm JALA International. "Most
offices are dysfunctional. Interruptions are unbelievable," says Nilles,
who adds that the number of people who work at least one day every couple
of weeks away from the office is about 30 million this year, up 10% from
last year. IBM is a case in point: In 2001, about a third of IBM employees
worked outside the office at least some of the time. That figure has
climbed to 42%, says Maria Ferris, manager of work/life and women's
initiatives at Big Blue. Still, there are challenges to overcome: Top on
the list is ensuring that company data isn't at risk when employees work
from home, followed by convincing managers to supervise based on results
rather than face-time, and ensuring that remote employees feel connected.

UNIVERSAL AND SNOCAP MAKE MUSIC TOGETHER [NAPSTER LIVES!]
Vivendi Universal has agreed to license its catalog of 150,000 songs
to Snocap, a new venture headed up by Napster founder Shawn Fanning. It's
unclear how Snocap's peer-to-peer service will work, but people close to
the deal say one possibility is that the service would allow users to share
a low-quality copy of a licensed song for free but would require a fee for
access to a high-quality version. The other three big labels -- Warner
Music, EMI Group and Sony BMG -- all are seeking ways to license legitimate
copies of their songs to peer-to-peer network, but Universal's move marks
the first such partnering deal. (Wall Street Journal 15 Nov 2004)

CISCO TO BUILD CHINA'S NEXT-GENERATION NETWORK
[Remember our predictions about China?]
[Also story below that India has more
cell phones than land lines. Notice in
this China article no mention is made of
wired versus wireless.]
Cisco Systems has been chosen by China Telecommunications Corp.,
China's biggest telecom company, to build China's next-generation backbone
network. Known as the China Telecom Internet Protocol Next-Generation
Network, it will connect more than 200 cities and allow China's users to
connect to overseas networks through virtual private network (VPN) services.
The next-generation network is part of a plan by China Telecom to become one
of the world's largest providers of Internet protocol services within the
next two decades. (AP/San Jose Mercury News 12 Nov 2004)

STUDYING NANOTECH RISKS
[We heartily recommend you read "The Diamond Age," by Neal Stephenson,
and "Engines of Creation," by Eric K. Drexler to see the potential in
several very interesting perspectives.]
The Environmental Protection Agency has awarded $4 million in grants to
a dozen universities to study the biological and medical implications of
nanotechnology, which has already yielded such products as carbon "nanotube"
electrical wires; cages of atoms that can capture pollutants in water and
soil; and catalysts that reduce manufacturers' dependence upon caustic
chemicals. Recognizing that these materials are small enough to enter the
lungs (and perhaps even be absorbed through the skin and travel to the brain
and other organs), EPA official Paul Gilman explained: "This emerging field
has the potential to transform environmental protection, but at the same
time we must understand whether nanomaterials in the environment can have an
adverse impact." Barbara Karn of the EPA's Office of Research and
Development says the projects funded by the new grants will do "infinitely
more" on nanotech safety than has ever been done previously.

AOL WINDS DOWN BROADBAND SERVICE
[Why just the Southeast? Isn't AOL headquartered in Virginia?]

Earlier this year America Online stopped signing up new broadband
customers -- and now it's telling existing broadband subscribers in nine
Southern states that they'll need to find a new broadband carrier by
mid-January, or face being moved to dial-up service. Broadband customers
affected by this decision are residents of Florida, Kentucky, Georgia,
Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, North Carolina and South
Carolina. (AP/Los Angeles Times 12 Nov 2004)

MICROSOFT CRACKS DOWN ON XBOX MODIFICATIONS
Cameron Ferroni, Microsoft's general manager for the Xbox software
platform, says the company's not planning to sue individual users but that
it does want to stop users of the Xbox Live online service from modifying
their machines to improve their performance at games. Ferroni believes it's
important that Microsoft prevent cheating on Xbox Live (where multiple
players can take part in games) and says that the company's goal is to make
sure there's a level playing field for game players.

SOFTWARE FREE AS THE SUN, FROM SUN
Sun Microsystems, which spent $500 million developing its next-generation
operating system, will offer its Solaris 10 operating system free,
in hopes of expanding both its customer base and the number of
software developers who write programs for it. To generate revenue,
the company will charge subscription fees for Solaris support and service
programs. Sun chief executive Scott McNealy says: "Hewlett Packard sells
a printer at a low price and makes a lot of money on printer cartridges.
Gillette gives you the razor and makes a lot of money on the blades.
There are different ways to drive market penetration." (AP 15 Nov 2004)

STRONG SHOWING FOR ONLINE EDUCATION
According to a new report by the Sloan Consortium, significantly more
students are enrolling in online courses, and the perceived quality of
online education is also rising. The study, which is in its second
year, showed a 19 percent increase in the number of students enrolled
in an online course. The authors of the report expect that number to
grow by another 24 percent in the next year. Growth rates among
private, for-profit institutions outpaces others by a factor of almost
two to one. The study also showed increasing confidence in the quality
of online education, with more than 40 percent of respondents saying
they believe students are at least as satisfied with online courses as
with classroom instruction. According to Jeff Seaman, chief information
officer for the Sloan Consortium and coauthor of the study, small
baccalaureate institutions are the slowest to embrace online learning.
Administrators at those institutions, he said, are more likely to
support small, on-campus classes for the type of educational experience
they provide.

S. KOREA CONSIDERS BANNING N. KOREAN COLLEGE WEB SITE
Officials from South Korea are reportedly considering forbidding access
to the Web site of North Korea's Kim Il-sung University in an effort
to shield computer users in South Korea from communist ideology. Police
in South Korea have asked the government to block access to a total of
31 Web sites under the country's National Security Law, which is
currently being debated in parliament. South Korea's president wants
the law, which places restrictions on contact with the north, to be
revised or thrown out. Supporters of the law said it remains necessary
to protect those in the south from the propaganda of North Korea, which
has never officially rescinded its call for taking over South Korea by
force. According to an unnamed South Korean police official, "We need
to block access to resources of one-sided information or knowledge
which ordinary people can obtain easily."

SUN OFFERS NEW SOLARIS FOR FREE
Sun Microsystems announced that its upcoming Solaris 10 operating
system will be available near the end of January and said it will offer
a free version of the software. Sun's move reflects a growing practice
among vendors such as Linux distributor Red Hat: offer software in a
free version or a flagship version that includes licensing and support
fees. An official from Sun said that under the new pricing arrangement,
"Solaris will be less expensive in any category than our Linux
competitors." Sun also hopes to appeal to customers on the basis of its
being able to offer hardware, software, and support from a single
vendor. According to IDC, Solaris is currently running on about one
million computers around the world. Analyst Jean S. Bozman said,
"They're looking for ubiquity."

YAHOO UPS STORAGE LIMITS ON E-MAIL ACCOUNTS
In an effort to stay competitive with Microsoft's Hotmail and
Google's Gmail, Yahoo has announced an increase in the amount of free
storage it allows for its e-mail customers. Yahoo users now have up to
250 megabytes of free space--the same as Hotmail customers--up from the
former limit of 100 megabytes. Gmail offers 1,000 megabytes of free
storage space but is currently in testing and only available by
invitation or to existing account holders. Brad Garlinghouse, vice
president of communications products at Yahoo, said, "[Gmail] really
has raised the game for everyone, and that's good for consumers."
Yahoo also said it has improved its technology for verifying the

CAMPUS GROUPS EDUCATE STUDENTS ABOUT COPYRIGHT
Students at about a dozen colleges and universities have started
organizations called Free Culture groups to educate other students
about copyright and fight what they see as a tilting of the law to
favor copyright owners. The first Free Culture group was started by
Swarthmore College student Nelson Pavlosky, known for his successful
legal challenge to Diebold Election Systems' use of the Digital
Millennium Copyright Act in trying to suppress leaked company memos.
Pavlosky and other Free Culture organizers want college-age people to
understand how copyrights have changed in the electronic era,
particularly with respect to legislation such as the proposed Induce
Act. Pavlosky acknowledged that a danger of the Free Culture groups is
that participants will simply be seen as "rich white kids who want free
music." Jessica Litman, a law professor at Wayne State University and a
speaker at a meeting of the Free Culture groups, noted that copyright
law is traditionally written by lobbyists who represent copyright
owners and said that consumers should be included in that process.

*Headline News Avoided By Most Of The Major U.S. Media
Apparently Russia's approval of the Kyoto accords,
which were stalled when President Bush reversed US
policies, were mostly a ploy to gain membership in
the World Trade Organization [WTO].
"Once you figure out what's going on, it's interesting to compare all
the countries. The big news story of the day is obviously `Insurrection
will not end in Fallujah' ... in every country except the USA and
Spain, where it's not mentioned at all. Why Spain?"
*
We've all heard the some countries could leapfrog
right over the wired to the wireless, but no one
has admitted this could be done on a large scale
until now. . .India in reporting more cell phones
than land lines. [See above story on China.]
[More on China]
A controversial system of treating drug addiction
by removing the portion of the brain responsible
for cravings has been banned. One side effect
feared most was the loss of the sex drive, too.
This treatment was invented by Russian doctors,
and apparently had only a 50% success rate in
China, and only 60% elsewhere.

NASA RETALIATES AGAINST X-PRIZE WINNER
November 17, 2004, off the coast of California
In an effort to reclaim some of the fame lost by NASA
with the various failures of the space shuttle and now
with the advent of commercially oriented spacecraft,
NASA decided to unveil its X-43A scramjet, short for
supersonic ramjet.
The plane, earlier versions of which graced magazine
covers many years ago but which were then hushed up,
travelled nearly 7,000 miles per hour, over twice as
fast as the SR-71A "Blackhawk" spy plane did when it
set an earlier record of 3,000 miles coast to coast
when it was retired from service and finally unveiled.
The unmanned plane was part of a three-stage effort
in which a B-52 bomber carried the plane with attached
booster rocket pack to a high altitude, then launched
the the plane via the booster, and finally the plane
separated from the booster and soared into the record
books to a speed of Mach 9.6, or nearly 7,000 mph in
a self-powered flight that lasts only about 10 seconds.
Other reports claimed a speed of Mach 9.8.
Other sources say the 9.8 figure was achieved only in
flight on the Pegasus booster rocket, and that the new
plane actually slowed down slightly after launch as it
flew past the 100,000 foot altitude mark that is used
as a general demarcation of the beginning of space.
This is not a full-sized plane, it's only 12 feet long.
This was the third of three X-43A's, the first of which
was intentionally destroyed when the Pegasus booster
failed to stay on course. The second flew last March,
reaching Mach 6.83, or nearly 5,000 mph.
The basic advantage being sought in this program is to
eliminate the need for vehicles to carry oxygen to burn,
but rather to use the oxygen in the atmosphere, thus making
them lighter and faster, able to carry more payload over
longer distances.
One idea is for these scramjets to carry satellites nearly
into orbit and then shoot them into orbit much as one would
shoot any other projectile.
Shades of Jules Verne's "From The Earth To The Moon," in which
astronauts were shot into space. . .and you can read right here
at Project Gutenberg.
[meanwhile. . .back at the lunar ranch. . . .]
SLOWLY BUT CHEAPLY, A NEW WAY TO THE MOON
from The Washington Post
Astronauts used to get to the moon in a few days, after blazing
into space atop the largest rockets ever, but a new approach,
dubbed SMART-1, is just now entering lunar orbit, after over a
year in ever-widening orbits of the earth, eventually reaching
close enough to the moon to be guided into its gravity and will
now orbit the moon, all by using a very small engine, after being
launch into earth orbit in the usual manner.

=============================================================================
"For those wishing to know", elucidation from David Price:
1. About #13957, The Pocket George Borrow, by George Borrow:
The Pocket George Borrow is part of a series of "selected passages from
XYZ" produced by publisher Chatto & Windus in the early part of the 20th
century. A different, but important, person made the selection in each
case. Other volumes in the same series include Thackeray (chosen by
Alfred Hyatt), Robert Louis Stevenson (already in Gutenberg) and so on.
Edward Thomas, who selected for this volume, is the well-known war-poet:
he was also a great admirer of George Borrow.
George Borrow was an English eccentric, gifted in languages. All of the
works selected from in this book are available in Gutenberg - if you like
any particular passage you can have the whole eBook as well.
2. About #13984, In the Wrong Paradise, by Andrew Lang
. . .it's a group of medium-sized stories, mainly on a theme of mythology
(Lang's pet subject). A number of the stories are written with a wry
twist. In one of the stories, "The Gladstone Myth" Lang has a friendly
dig at those mythologists whose theories he disagreed with. The most
well-rounded of the stories is the first one, The End of Phaeacia, in
which a biggotted Victorian "missionary" comes across a "barbaric,
heathen" tribe who, one feels, are more than the missionary perceives...
