"Musically, Steamhammer was the cream of the crop of all rock bands from their thriving primordial era. In the realm of power rock trios, they were comparable to Cream. Yet this band is far superior in every way, but they failed to get the rave reviews and critical attention that the flashier Cream garnered. Diverging from the typical power rock style on Speech, their fourth and final album, the band found themselves in a dilemma without their vocalist, who had left after the previous release, Mountains. This led to a radical development for the band. Instead of hiring a new singer, the rest of the group picked up the slack, and reduced the role of the vocals significantly, opting for a progressive jam style that was hugely innovative for its time. Guitarist Martin Pugh offers a crashing, furious style that mixes Jimmy Page with early Robert Fripp. When Pugh seeks passages of beauty and tranquility, he finds them with ease, but when he aims for intensity, watch out! He literally attacks the listener, pounding them with his mammoth, perfectly executed riffs. Meanwhile, bassist Louis Cennamo is so talented and innovative that he single-handedly brought the bow into rock music with his bowed bass intro to the album. Several years before Page would pick up the bow for "Kashmir," Cennamo uses the bowed bass as means to an end, not for simple effect. Just as a normal bassist alone, masters within the genre owe their lifeblood to him. For he is able to play along with just about the toughest, most technical drumming around, that of drummer Mick Bradley, who is easily the most accomplished musician of the trio. To state that he is rock's greatest drummer is simply not enough. His energetic approach to the drum kit helped him become one of the first and only drummers in rock history, along with King Crimson's Michael Giles, to use polyrhythmic drumming, a style commonly used by jazz drummers. His dynamic performance on the primarily instrumental "For Against," which blows away John Bonham's "Moby Dick" and Ginger Baker's "Toad" in a heartbeat. On this album, there was a rumor that the band received some secret vocal and lyrical help from Yardbirds vocalist Keith Relf. Whether or not this is true remains a mystery, but what is fact, sadly, is that not long after this album Mick Bradley succumbed to Leukemia and passed away. This marked the end of Steamhammer, but the other two members forged on, forming a band called Armageddon. Speech is one of rock's finest and most creative hours, and one tends to wonder where Steamhammer could have gone from this point on had it not been for obscurity and sudden tragedy."

AMG:
"Jimmy Witherspoon recorded a series of excellent albums for Verve in the late '60s. Unfortunately, these have not received the attention they deserve, and are frequently relegated in Witherspoon's huge catalog. The Blues Is Now is arguably the finest of these recordings, and Witherspoon's voice is in top form and hugely expressive. Like all of the artist's albums of the decade, it's not the most consistent of listening experiences, but that's of little interest when songs and performances are as good as "My Baby's Quit Me" and Witherspoon's own "Late One Evening." A light-night blues classic, this is Witherspoon at his most relaxed and assured and is a joy to listen to."

Firefox 1.0 вышел 9 ноября 2004 года. Я на нем сижу уже пару лет.

Ну чо - типа ура?

Ситуация такая: Некое интернет СМИ печатает статью, в которой использует мою фотографию без моего ведома. Фотография сделана для одного фестиваля. Подпись под фото "оргкомитет фестиваля". Второе интернет СМИ печатает статью о том же фестивале, ссылаясь на первое СМИ и публикует три мои фотографии, подписывая их как: "фото: авторы статьи в первом СМИ".
На мое письмо второму СМИ с просьбой оплатить использованные фотографии и сменить подпись, статья удаляется.
Имеется:
принскрины, не заверенные нотариусом.
исходники фотографий, камера с которой они были сделаны, вся серия фотографий того дня
свидетели
перепечатка статьи в жж
фото (маленького размера) украдены из  жж фествиаля, их я передала фестивалю и размещены там они были с моего согласия.

Вопрос: какие шансы выиграть суд,с  учетом того, что СМИ существует только в интернете, и принтскрины ноториально не заверены?

Заранее спаибо.

Специалисты будапештского музея военной истории собрались перебазировать легендарный Т-34, более 40 лет простоявший в центре города Надьканиж, в столицу Венгрии. Погрузить многотонный танк на подготовленную для этого платформу не представлялось возможным: многотонных автокранов, способных это сделать, в округе не нашлось. В отчаянии они попробовали загнать танк на платформу самоходом, для чего залили баки соляркой и к их изумлению… завели “тридцатьчетверку”!
 

Оказалось, что танк, простоявший столько лет без движения, вполне способен передвигаться самостоятельно и на большие, чем до платформы, расстояния. Впрочем, уродовать асфальт траками спецы не решились.
