History of Hot Dog -- Sausage or A Sandwich with the Bun and the Sausage

Hot dog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hot dog history, legends and trivia

One day on a grocery shopping at a supermarket near campus, I and a friend of mine looked at tasty sausages and wondered about the history of the term hot dog.

I visited the Hot Dog Wikipedia today and was directed to an interesting website on the history and legends of hot dogs. Wikipedia said that "hot dog" was likely invented in 1904 at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis, Missouri but the other source suggested many more legends believed to have coined the term "hot dog." Among these were the 1895 invention by The Yale Record, the humor magazine published by undergrad students at Yale University, and the 1902 invention during a Giants baseball game at the New York Polo grounds.

Despite the so many legends on invention of the term, it was agreed that Hot Dog was born in America and that today hot dogs are the most widely consumed form of sausage in America!!

A Thought on a Reasoner-enabled Version of Del.icio.us (and perhaps Technorati)

I have been adding more bookmarks to my del.icio.us account and have begun tagging them with RDF-like object/datatype properties. Adding more and more object/datatype properties to the bookmark, a provoking thought popped up: It would be nice if tagging can be assisted by ontologies and a logic reasoner. Look at del.icio.us/thitiv . The _hasAffilication:CUPhoto property should be a subproperty of _hasAffiliation:Chula (provided that CUPhoto stands for Chula Photo Club .) Also, aticles on 'tagging' are subclass of articles on 'metadata'. But articles on 'metadata' are not essentially the articles on 'tagging'. 'Friends' versus 'people' is also another example. Bookmarks about my friends are of course bookmarks about people. But not all the people I know or found on the Internet (through search engines) are my friends. Ontology-assisted tagging sounds promising to solve this problem. In principle, this problem is partly related to...

"Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider is not registered on the local machine" Error on Windows 7 (64-bit) + Office 2010 (64-bit) + Visual Studio 2010

If you use (1) Windows 7 (64-bit), and (2) Office 2010 (64-bit), and  (3) Visual Studio 2010 to write an ASP.NET code to connect to Access or Excel database using the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider and consistently get the "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider is not registered on the local machine" error, try installing the 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components , which is basically a Microsoft Access Database Engine 2007 Redistributable for Windows (32-bit) from http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=23734 Many forums suggested by Google Search suggest installing the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable for Windows (32-bit, 64-bit) downloadable from http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=13255 but it wouldn't help because Visual Studio 2010 is a 32-bit application; what you need is a 32-bit Data Connectivity component. The 2010 download will not allow you to install i...

Tips: Mac OS X: Full ANSI Color Support in Terminal.app

I'm trying to switch my Java development platform from Windows XP to Mac OS X Tiger. Wondering how to colorize the Terminal screen, I spent some time googling. From the discussions at the end of this page: macosxhints.com - Add full ANSI color support to Terminal.app Here's a summary of how to enable it: With bash shell as default, simply add export TERM=xterm-color [I prefer this for Linux compatibility] or export TERM=dtterm in the ~/.profile (single-user) or /etc/profile (system-wide) Color terminal is enabled. Use ' ls -G ' (the -G enables color output) to test. Add alias ls='ls -G' in the profile file for convenience. Keywords: mac-os-x , unix , terminal , shell , tips
