In 1819, the same year that Louis entered the Institution, Charles Barbier, an army captain, reported to the Academy of Sciences on a system of raised dots and dashes which enabled soldiers to read messages in the dark.Later, Barbier brought his invention to the Institution.After experimenting with it, young Braille produced a writing system using only dots, from which he gradually devised 63 separate combinations representing the letters in the French alphabet.At the request of an Englishman, he later added the letter “w”, accents and punctuation marks, and mathematical signs.Although government bureaucracy prevented immediate official adoption, his system was used at the Institution as long as the director, Dr.Pignier, was in office.Pignier’s successor insisted on returning to the officially approved former system, but students continued to use Braille's method secretly.Eventually, its superiority was established and it was adopted throughout France.

Commercial classical music radio in North America has changed dramatically over the past decade. The number of stations has shnmk very rapidly——many operators dropped the format in favor of something more profitable, like pop or rock, with their crazy youthful audience. But the availability of satellite radio, Interact streaming and digital technologies has introduced new options for classical fans.
In the city of Toronto, a familiar media player entered the tray last year: Moses Znaimer, 65, the famous brave television pioneer who was the driving force behind Toronto" s CITY-TV. Eleven months ago, he took ownership of Classical 96.3 FM, Canada" s first and largest commercial clas- sical station, which "re-launched" this month with some new on-air hosts, a totally new schedule, and more attention to singing art and less to full-length symphonies.
The popular station airs selections (usually no more than 10 to 15 minutes long) of greatest- hits classical works, 24 hours a day. This usually means single movements of larger works and oth- er pieces, with commercial ads in between. The station may never be the preferred destination of highbrow classical fans, who seek full-length symphonies and operas. But this doesn" t seem to trouble Znaimer, who says of his main competitor, CBC Radio Two: "They play classical, and they do it well when they do it, but they don" t do it all the time, and they" re doing it less and less. "
Marilyn Gilbert, a Toronto artist manager, also makes a comparison to Canada" s national broadcaster when she praises Znaimer" s station: "Classical 96.3 FM is very important for the com- munity and the country, especially in view of the changes that are going on at CBC."
Znaimer is best-known for his influential work in television, but he was also one of the crea- tors of Cross Country Checkup, the longest-running show on CBC Radio. Today he calls Classical 96.3 FM "arguably the most successful of all classical music stations on the continent. At about 800,000 listeners per week, we are larger even than the New York Times classical station E WQXR- FM]." And under his excellent and creative leadership, the sound of the station has become livelier.
