215; Two Steps From the Blues
Bobby Bland
BEAT GOES ON 1961
THIS COLLECTION OF THE blues singer's 1958-1961 singles was recorded after Bland had his tonsils removed and lost some of his upper register. The result — an even more stirring, guttural howl — is epitomized by "Little Boy Blue" and "Cry, Cry, Cry," which erase any distinction between blues and soul.

Greetings,
I'm searching for the following book on the Maoroccan Crisis of 1911: "Deutschland und England in Marokko und Tripolis unsere Politik in Gegenwart und Zukunft". Unfortunately it is not available in any library here in the UK. According to the Worldcat ( [1]) the only copies that are still in existence are located in the US. To be specific the New York Public Library, the Harvard College Library and the Harvard Law School Library are still in possession of that book. I presume that this book in an old doctoral thesis. Since I'd like to know more about the author I was wondering whether there is someone around, who has access to the aforementioned libraries can spare 5 to 10 minutes to pick up a copy of that book and check whether there it contains a curriculum vitae of the author, as was customary back in that time. If that should be the case I'd be grateful if the person checking out the book could transcribe the curriculum vitae and post it here. Since the curricula vitae in doctoral theses were very brief (8 to 12 lines in a rather big typ-size on average) it really is just a matter of 2-3 minues to carry out the task - even if you do not understand the language. If it really is adoctoral thesis I'd furtheremore be interested into the text of the front-page ("Inaugural dissertation written by...") and into the brief info on the second an third page (normally 2 lines giving the names of the professors who were assigned to review the paper and a two-line dedication of the work such as "to my parents"). If anyone can help me - Thank you very much indeed in advance! R.J.K.O.83 ( talk) 02:53, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

I would like to point, that both definitions are general ones. They do not include the characterization of the type of silver being used, it's atomic or molecular structure. (All the silver intended for ingestion is essentially is a colloidal one, otherwise it would be just a piece of a silver.) So "silver", "colloidal silver" and "nano silver" mean absolutely the same thing. Its clear that in the press release when they use "silver" they don't mean "pieces of ordinary silver".

I am interested in which sources this author used to get his info about Robert Alexander Early (October 1849?-October 1960). I am trying to help the Gerontology Research Group verify his case, but right now the evidence that we found is not conclusive to undoubtedly state that he was 111 years and 1 day old when he died in 1960. If his claimed age is accurate, it would mean that he would have been the oldest man ever at the time of his death.
The author of this book is Cleland Edward Early, it was printed by D. Armstrong Co. in 1988, and it contains 231 pages or around there. Thank you very much. Futurist110 ( talk) 03:43, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

For the article My Old Man's a Dustman, I'm trying to establish whether the popular playground version about a football match is older or more recent than Lonnie Donegan's hit version. In Google books, I am able to see a snippet from this book by Ritchie where a version of the football song (though titled "My Old Man's a Scaffie") is recorded. The book was published in 1964 (i.e. after Donegan's version) but I know that the author had been collecting playground songs since at least 1951. What I'd like to know, if anyone can access the text, is whether a date for the "Scaffie" version is given.
The book was published by Oliver and Boyd, Edinburgh in 1964 (see page 127) and republished by Mercat Press, Edingurgh in 2000.

I'm trying to figure out the exact location of the Beverley Ground, a cricket ground in Canterbury (UK) that was used between 1840 and 1846. Text sources describe it as "near the Cavalry barracks", which were to the south of the Sturry road west of Old Park Road. There seem to be several maps floating around either of Canterbury or more generally of Kent, eg J and C Walker's self-published map of Kent from 1843, or Felix Summerley's Handbook for the City of Canterbury: Its Historical Associations and Works of Art with Numerous Illustrations and a Map of the City (1843). There might also be something useful in Canterbury Cricket Week - An Authentic Narrative of the Origin and Career of the Institution. Vol I. 1839-1851 (Canterbury: William Davy, 1865), in particular the bit covering 1839-42 which is left out of later histories and which would cover how they came to move to the Beverley from the previous ground. -- Le Deluge ( talk) 03:02, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Basically, I am trying to help verify this one case of a man who allegedly died at age 112 in 1967. Here is James M. "Uncle Jim" King's obituary: http://files.usgwarchives.net/la/franklin/obits/1960s/1967-06.txt. Basically, the Gerontology Research Group (GRG) verifies the ages of supercentenarians (people who are 110+ years old)-- http://www.grg.org/Adams/B2.HTM. Basically, for the 1860 U.S. Census, FamilySearch does not let you view the whole household in a particular U.S. Census form. In contrast, FamilySearch lets you view the whole household (all of the members of this household) on later U.S. Censuses. Here's an example:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/VYT3-QNJ
James M King, "United States Census, 1940" Name: James M King Titles & Terms: Event: Census Event Year: 1940 Event Place: Police Jury Ward 8, Franklin, Louisiana, United States Gender: Male Age: 85 Marital Status: Widowed Race (Original): Race (Standardized): White Relationship to Head of Household (Original): Relationship to Head of Household (Standardized): Head Birthplace: Arkansas Estimated Birth Year: 1855 Residence in 1935: Same House Enumeration District Number: 21-26 Family Number: 8 Sheet Number and Letter: 1B Line Number: 41 NARA Publication Number: T627 NARA Roll Number: 1401 Digital Folder Number: 005454637 Image Number: 00763 Household Gender Age Birthplace Head James M King M 85 Arkansas Son George E King M 60 Louisiana Son-in-law A E Hynum M 58 Mississippi Daughter Lucy Hynum F 52 Louisiana Grandson Walter Hynum M 36 Louisiana
Does someone here already have a subscription to Ancestry.com or a similar website which allows one to look at the whole household in the 1860 U.S. Census? I think that the 1860 U.S. Census already recorded and enumerated all of the members of a particular household. I need some help in searching the 1860 U.S. Census, since finding an 1860 U.S. Census match for James M. King would be crucial in helping him get verified by the GRG. I was told that this place might be a good place to ask for help in regards to this. Thank you very much. Futurist110 ( talk) 22:59, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

The article on this fringe doctor is based largely on sources I can't see:
I doubt if (1) will be easily available, but I suppose I should read it if it is; for (2) and (3), if anyone happens to be able to see them, all I need is to know if Francesco Racanelli is mentioned, and if so, what is said about him.

1."In the 19th century the Vanniyar held a low position in both Lower Burma and in South India " these lines are there in a wiki page and it was said it is taken from the book - Title : Land and Caste in South India: Agricultural Labour in the Madras Presidency During the Nineteenth Century. Cambridge Studies in Economic History. Cambridge University Press. by Dharma kumar.
2. " while Michael Adas says that in Burma the Palli were "socially better off" than the untouchable castes but were "economically equally exploited and deprived".[2]"
It was mentioned the above lines are taken from the book Title :The Burma Delta : economic development and social change on an Asian rice frontier, 1852-1941. New Perspectives in SE Asian Studies. Madison, Wis.: University of Wisconsin Press. ISBN 0299283542. by Michael Adas.
Please let me know is there any thing present like this in the books mentioned . Did Michael Adas said about "palli" a group of people also known as 'Vanniyars' who majorly live in South India . or he is referring as 'palli' some other people in Burma. ?

ISBN 0316119202 The town has been the setting for a couple of stories, including the children's fantasy book called The Enormous Egg by Oliver Butterworth, first published in 1956 but reissued years later ( ISBN 0-316-11920-2). Freedom was also the setting for a 2001 broadcast of This American Life, entitled "The House at Loon Lake". That episode depicted an abandoned house explored by young boys, in town for summer camp at Loon Lake.
I am writing a fantasy children's story about a boys' summer camp loosely based on Camp Brandon for Boys for boys with incontinence problems and would like to read the episode of This American Life to avoid copyright infringement. The boys would be staying at Glennwood Lodge in Freedom, NH on Lake Ossipee. It would be built in an octagonal shape and the boys would be able to access the central treehouse via catwalks from their windows. They would talk and play games. Below the treehouse, they would be able to cook s'mores over an open fire. Their fishing poles would be abandoned as the fish blew raspberries at them and lived out their fishy lives at the bottom of the clear pure lake.

To determine the copyright status of this photograph in its source country (Ireland), we need to know when the photographer died. We know that it is W. D. Hogan who was most prolific in the period 1920–1924 and who was a professional photographer. He worked until 1935 at 56 Henry St, Dublin. I was unable to find any traces of him after this year. The National Library of Ireland has a collection of photos of him but provides no life span (see here). There was recently an exhibition of some of his photographs in Dublin (see here and here) but his lifespan is nowhere mentioned. It would be very helpful if biographical databases, newspaper archives etc. could be recherched for his death date. As W. D. Hogan has taken a great number of unique historical photographs of the Irish War of Independence this would be helpful not just for this photograph that is currently under discussion but the entire collection. -- AFBorchert ( talk) 06:43, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

In this book, published by the Museum of Modern Art, in 1987, by author "Bernice Rose", titled "The Drawings of Roy Lichtenstein", I am seeking confirmation of the sentence: "In effect he threw down the gauntlet, challenging the notion of originality as it prevailed at that time." I believe it can be found on page 17. I should mention that I have started two threads elsewhere on this topic, here and here.

Please could someone send me the article, or if that's too much, the relevant pages on Avicenna / Ibn Sina.

THIS COLLECTION OF THE blues singer's 1958-1961 singles was recorded after Bland had his tonsils removed and lost some of his upper register. The result — an even more stirring, guttural howl — is epitomized by "Little Boy Blue" and "Cry, Cry, Cry," which erase any distinction between blues and soul.

Greetings,
I'm searching for the following book on the Maoroccan Crisis of 1911: "Deutschland und England in Marokko und Tripolis unsere Politik in Gegenwart und Zukunft". Unfortunately it is not available in any library here in the UK. According to the Worldcat ( [1]) the only copies that are still in existence are located in the US. To be specific the New York Public Library, the Harvard College Library and the Harvard Law School Library are still in possession of that book. I presume that this book in an old doctoral thesis. Since I'd like to know more about the author I was wondering whether there is someone around, who has access to the aforementioned libraries can spare 5 to 10 minutes to pick up a copy of that book and check whether there it contains a curriculum vitae of the author, as was customary back in that time. If that should be the case I'd be grateful if the person checking out the book could transcribe the curriculum vitae and post it here. Since the curricula vitae in doctoral theses were very brief (8 to 12 lines in a rather big typ-size on average) it really is just a matter of 2-3 minues to carry out the task - even if you do not understand the language. If it really is adoctoral thesis I'd furtheremore be interested into the text of the front-page ("Inaugural dissertation written by...") and into the brief info on the second an third page (normally 2 lines giving the names of the professors who were assigned to review the paper and a two-line dedication of the work such as "to my parents"). If anyone can help me - Thank you very much indeed in advance! R.J.K.O.83 ( talk) 02:53, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

I would like to point, that both definitions are general ones. They do not include the characterization of the type of silver being used, it's atomic or molecular structure. (All the silver intended for ingestion is essentially is a colloidal one, otherwise it would be just a piece of a silver.) So "silver", "colloidal silver" and "nano silver" mean absolutely the same thing. Its clear that in the press release when they use "silver" they don't mean "pieces of ordinary silver".

Recently I have improved the Beale cipher article in Chinese wikipedia, and I am confused about some events mentioned in Simon Singh's The Code Book as I cannot find additional resources on internet to verify them and establish their importance. I guess Singh might have taken reference from Viemeister's book, so I would like to know if anyone have this book.

I am interested in which sources this author used to get his info about Robert Alexander Early (October 1849?-October 1960). I am trying to help the Gerontology Research Group verify his case, but right now the evidence that we found is not conclusive to undoubtedly state that he was 111 years and 1 day old when he died in 1960. If his claimed age is accurate, it would mean that he would have been the oldest man ever at the time of his death.

For the article My Old Man's a Dustman, I'm trying to establish whether the popular playground version about a football match is older or more recent than Lonnie Donegan's hit version. In Google books, I am able to see a snippet from this book by Ritchie where a version of the football song (though titled "My Old Man's a Scaffie") is recorded. The book was published in 1964 (i.e. after Donegan's version) but I know that the author had been collecting playground songs since at least 1951. What I'd like to know, if anyone can access the text, is whether a date for the "Scaffie" version is given.
The book was published by Oliver and Boyd, Edinburgh in 1964 (see page 127) and republished by Mercat Press, Edingurgh in 2000.

Text sources describe it as "near the Cavalry barracks", which were to the south of the Sturry road west of Old Park Road. There seem to be several maps floating around either of Canterbury or more generally of Kent, eg J and C Walker's self-published map of Kent from 1843, or Felix Summerley's Handbook for the City of Canterbury: Its Historical Associations and Works of Art with Numerous Illustrations and a Map of the City (1843). There might also be something useful in Canterbury Cricket Week - An Authentic Narrative of the Origin and Career of the Institution. Vol I. 1839-1851 (Canterbury: William Davy, 1865), in particular the bit covering 1839-42 which is left out of later histories and which would cover how they came to move to the Beverley from the previous ground. -- Le Deluge ( talk) 03:02, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Basically, I am trying to help verify this one case of a man who allegedly died at age 112 in 1967. Here is James M. "Uncle Jim" King's obituary: http://files.usgwarchives.net/la/franklin/obits/1960s/1967-06.txt. Basically, the Gerontology Research Group (GRG) verifies the ages of supercentenarians (people who are 110+ years old)-- http://www.grg.org/Adams/B2.HTM. Basically, for the 1860 U.S. Census, FamilySearch does not let you view the whole household in a particular U.S. Census form. In contrast, FamilySearch lets you view the whole household (all of the members of this household) on later U.S. Censuses. Here's an example:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/VYT3-QNJ
James M King, "United States Census, 1940" Name: James M King Titles & Terms: Event: Census Event Year: 1940 Event Place: Police Jury Ward 8, Franklin, Louisiana, United States Gender: Male Age: 85 Marital Status: Widowed Race (Original): Race (Standardized): White Relationship to Head of Household (Original): Relationship to Head of Household (Standardized): Head Birthplace: Arkansas Estimated Birth Year: 1855 Residence in 1935: Same House Enumeration District Number: 21-26 Family Number: 8 Sheet Number and Letter: 1B Line Number: 41 NARA Publication Number: T627 NARA Roll Number: 1401 Digital Folder Number: 005454637 Image Number: 00763 Household Gender Age Birthplace Head James M King M 85 Arkansas Son George E King M 60 Louisiana Son-in-law A E Hynum M 58 Mississippi Daughter Lucy Hynum F 52 Louisiana Grandson Walter Hynum M 36 Louisiana
Does someone here already have a subscription to Ancestry.com or a similar website which allows one to look at the whole household in the 1860 U.S. Census? I think that the 1860 U.S. Census already recorded and enumerated all of the members of a particular household. I need some help in searching the 1860 U.S. Census, since finding an 1860 U.S. Census match for James M. King would be crucial in helping him get verified by the GRG. I was told that this place might be a good place to ask for help in regards to this. Thank you very much. Futurist110 ( talk) 22:59, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

To determine the copyright status of this photograph in its source country (Ireland), we need to know when the photographer died. We know that it is W. D. Hogan who was most prolific in the period 1920–1924 and who was a professional photographer. He worked until 1935 at 56 Henry St, Dublin. I was unable to find any traces of him after this year. The National Library of Ireland has a collection of photos of him but provides no life span (see here). There was recently an exhibition of some of his photographs in Dublin (see here and here) but his lifespan is nowhere mentioned. It would be very helpful if biographical databases, newspaper archives etc. could be recherched for his death date. As W. D. Hogan has taken a great number of unique historical photographs of the Irish War of Independence this would be helpful not just for this photograph that is currently under discussion but the entire collection. -- AFBorchert ( talk) 06:43, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

In this book, published by the Museum of Modern Art, in 1987, by author "Bernice Rose", titled "The Drawings of Roy Lichtenstein", I am seeking confirmation of the sentence: "In effect he threw down the gauntlet, challenging the notion of originality as it prevailed at that time." I believe it can be found on page 17. I should mention that I have started two threads elsewhere on this topic, here and here. I pretty much have my confirmation, but if anyone can confirm those exact words in English, I can proceed to rely upon that source to support an assertion to that effect in an article. Thanks.

Specifically looking for recipe for Brown Windsor soup which is purported to be in this cookbook. The recipe calls for boiling three calf's feet for an hour and finish - after adding Maderia wine along the way - by putting a dozen crayfish quenelles into this "luxury soup". Needed to help debunk, or support, the existence that Brown Windsor soup actually existed in Victorian era. -- Green Cardamom ( talk) 16:03, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

I am looking for a pair of articles that I believe appeared in Genesis Magazine, a publication of Rare Breeds Canada, which relate to the Canadian Rustic Pony. All of the information I have is that they appeared in the magazine in 2003, volume 18, issues 1 & 2. I don't know the title of the articles, or how long they are; all I have come across is a mention of these articles in this magazine.

I have recently added a genre ("pop") to the With the Beatles article, sourced from the historical notes found on the 2009 remastered CD liner notes (on page 12), but there is nowhere online to verify this. The genre is plausible considering the release of the album and musically in order with the records surrounding it, and that the source is official. If anyone online has a copy of the album could you please help me out?
Many thanks in advance.

This one may be a challenge, but the community is awesome, so I am hopeful. American Classic Screen 7 (1): 8 (Jan/Feb 1983). I'm not actually sure the feature / column / article name, or whether it's entirely contained on page 8 or not. Should include commentary by Kevin Brownlow about the restoration of the film recovered from the Lusitania, which I hope to have something to add to The Carpet from Bagdad. No online link available that I know of, even paywalled. Also unhelpfully, although excerpts from American Classic Screen were compiled and reprinted in three book volumes ... this wasn't among them.

Hi, "Georges C. Anawati (1996), "Arabic alchemy", in Roshdi Rashed, ed., Encyclopedia of the History of Arabic Science, Vol. 3, p. 853–885 [875]" is used as a reference twice in the Avicenna article, once to provide a list of four works by Avicenna, once to support the statement: "Among his works on alchemy, Liber Aboali Abincine de Anima in arte Alchemiae was the most influential, having influenced later medieval chemists and alchemists such as Vincent of Beauvais". Please could someone send me the article, or if that's too much, the relevant pages on Avicenna / Ibn Sina. One of the things I'm interested in is whether Avicenna actually wrote the works listed in the Avicenna article, as another Anawati reference I found said Avicenna did not write three of four works attributed to him.
