History and Women: Maria Anna Mozart Maria Anna Mozart (30 July 1751 – 29 October 1829) Musician Maria Anna Mozart, beloved nicknamed Nannerl, was the elder and only sister of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. As children, both were considered gifted musical prodigies and their father, Leopold, arranged tours to display their talents to the masses in the grandest capitals of Europe. They enjoyed a pleasant childhood, indulging their musical creativity and creating their own childish kingdom. Thereafter, Leopold focused all his attentions on Mozart, not Nannerl. Victoria, one of her students, becomes her protégé. Even her choice of suiters were one-by-one turned away by Leopold. Nannerl grew ever more distant from Wolfgang, especially after his marriage to Constanze Weber. When Wolfgang dies, Nannerl re-awakens to life and makes it her purpose to honor her brother by collecting and assembling all his compositions and erecting monuments to honor his life.

An update on Tinderbox: Well, I didn't think I'd do it. I even wrote in my post that I wouldn't. Nearly a year since I released Tinderbox, I finally decided to take a packaged approach and make the technology more available. I'd like to introduce Bernie A.I., a personified artificial intelligence that is the next evolution from this project. Since Tinder’s rising popularity, including its use by Olympic athletes such as snowboarder Rebecca Torr, Tinder has achieved critical adoption as a launchpoint for singles meeting singles. Dubbed "Tinderbox", the first version only took 3 weeks to build. Eigenface is a quick and easy algorithm to implement facial recognition without the use of complex software like OpenCV. And computing the distance is just as easy: What are the results so far?
The Dreadful Story of Pauline and the Matches by Heinrich Hoffmann Mamma and Nurse went out one day, And left Pauline alone at play; Around the room she gayly sprung, Clapp'd her hands, and danced, and sung., Now, on the table close at hand, A box of matches chanced to stand, And kind Mamma and Nurse had told her, That if she touched them they would scold her; But Pauline said, "Oh, what a pity!

Bang on target! Crimea War bullets collided in a billion-to-one chance By Will Stewart for MailOnline Updated: 20:33 BST, 27 February 2009 As an illustration of luck, it doesn’t get much more explosive. This remarkable picture shows how two bullets from opposing troops fused after striking each other in mid-air. The odds of the clash are said to be a billion-to-one and it could well have saved the lives of two soldiers. Billion to one chance: Two bullets (one French, one Russian) which fused in mid-air during the Crimea War. What makes the discovery more incredible is that the bullets are 150 years old and were found on the battlefields of the Crimean War, now in Ukraine.
