Microsoft Reader

Microsoft Reader was a Microsoft application for the reading of e-books, originally released in August 2000.

Microsoft Reader was available for download from Microsoft as a free application for computers running Windows. It can also be used on a Pocket PC, where it has been built into the ROM since Windows CE 3.0. Microsoft Reader was not supported on newer Windows Phone 7 devices, but it was compatible with Windows Mobile.

Microsoft Reader displays books in the .LIT (shortened from "literature") format, an extension of the Microsoft Compressed HTML Help format to include DRM. These e-books can be purchased and downloaded from online stores.

The notable features of Microsoft Reader are ClearType for increased readability on small screens, highlighting and doodling designed for quick note-taking, text notes, and searching. The PC version also has an optional plugin for text-to-speech, enabling books to be read out loud.

In August 2011, Microsoft announced they were discontinuing both Microsoft Reader and the use of the .lit format for ebooks at the end of August 2012, and ending sales of the format on November 8, 2011.

Sabzi (musician)

Alexei Saba Mohajerjasbi, stage name Sabzi, is a Seattle-based producer and DJ. His genre is listed as alternative hip hop, due to its association with hip hop through the use of rap lyrics. He has collaborated three times to form different bands:

He has also guest produced for Das Racist.

Early years

Sabzi's first act, Blue Scholars, was formed with George Quibuyen (A.K.A. MC Geologic), whom he met at the University of Washington where they were students. They both belonged to the student group S.H.O.W. (the Student HipHop Organization of Washington). Blue Scholars soon become a Seattle Underground staple, and declared itself a group dedicated to forward thinking and youth empowerment.

In 2004, Sabzi began working with solo artist RA Scion on his album Live and Learn. By October 2005, the two had released a self-titled album as the duo Common Market. The group found success, as Scion contributed questions about religion, politics and the state of mainstream hip-hop to Sabzi's beats. While there are overt similarities between Blue Scholars and Common Market, the two groups have distinct differences, and "their styles seem to be diverging more".

Sabzi (artist)

Mahmood Sabzi, professionally known as Sabzi, is an Iranian artist known for his abstract impressionist paintings.

Sabzi was born in Ahvaz, Iran. He began painting when he was twelve years old, but eventually earned a bachelor's degree in agricultural engineering at the University of Jundi Shapur.

Initially, Sabzi made realistic paintings inspired by his country's history and culture. He went to exile during the regime of Ruhollah Khomeini, settling in Germany and the United States. During this period, he experimented with figurative and abstract styles. He eventually settled in southern California. Each of his moves was reflected in changes in his style to reflect changes in his environment.

Inspiration

According to Sabzi, he draws inspiration from the Persian rugs created by his mother.

Sabzi's painting style is influenced by the Modernist works of Paul Cézanne and Henri Matisse, as well as by the poet Rumi. Majority of his works feature women in various moods and poses, implying internal conflict.
