[edit] Ruby references

[edit] Salt Peter

• Nude As The News link

review summary:

The album shows promise but fails to break new ground in the synth-pop genre... lyrics are almost frightening, with references to blood, meat, leeches and fire cropping up in numerous songs... often less-than-stellar musical accompaniment...hits the mark on a few songs, but Salt Peter as a whole falls short of the techno-pop mastery... "Tiny Meat," the album's best track, wonderfully fuses an upbeat guitar riff with Rankine's drum loops of choice...Ruby's first effort is surprisingly original. Though Salt Peter leaves the aural palate dissatisfied, it brushes with greatness.^[1]

• Allmusic link

review summary:

...Ruby's music is a dark, eerie fusion of trip-hop and industrial, with quietly menacing beats and droning synths... Not all of the album works, but Salt Peter remains a promising debut.^[2]

• Section 3 link

review summary:

Musically this album is very solid. Lesley and co-author Mark Walk lace together an incredible network of beats and sounds... The design of this album, and everything associated with Ruby is worth mentioning, because it is not only extraordinary... There is more than enough originality on this album to make Ruby stand alone in this world of commodity, sales, and hype.^[3]

• Epinions link

review summary:

Without question, the album sounds like a mix of Garbage and Sneaker Pimps. It’s got a rock and roll edge (Garbage) with a leaning toward electronic music (Sneaker Pimps). In addition, Salt Peter is also mildly industrial... this nearly brilliant yet sorely overlooked album... Rankine and Walk assembled eleven mostly co-written tracks and in doing so put together an album absolutely worth the effort and money it takes to enjoy... And then there is Rankine’s voice, the centerpiece of this lovely album. Once again, it is perfectly timed precisely arranged and perfectly placed... Bravo to Rankine and Walk... Salt Peter is a wonderful album, and serves as a great bridge from the electronically enhanced rock of Garbage to more adventurous contemporary trip-hop acts.^[4]

[edit] Short-Staffed at the Gene Pool

• Choler Magazine link

review summary:

...Almost impossibly, Ruby has rebounded from 6 years of silence to deliver Short-staffed at the Gene Pool, a shimmering, irresistibly buoyant piece of electronic pop... It's a seductive album, which represents something of an evolution for the duo... Short-staffed does cut itself short in a few spots. It occasionally sounds assembled - the Protools seams show through a bit... Overall though, the album is a stunner...^[5]

[edit] Stroking the Full Length

• Allmusic link

• Section 3 link

review summary:

If you like packaging, videos, computer CD-ROMs, great industrial/electrical music, sexy lyrics, and a fully-interactive multimedia computer program, then this album is definitely for you... Ruby does this remix album justice, however. This is an awesome CD. Lesley Rankine and Mark Walk flex their electronic muscles on this album...^[6]

review summary:

[edit] Altered and Proud, the Short Staffed Remixes

• Allmusic link

review summary:

Only one or two mixes fail to add new interest to the original song (unfortunately, one of the least interesting is the album' s opening track). Overall, this is an excellent companion to a very fine album.^[7]

[edit] History of Confederate States Army Generals

The General Officers of the Confederate States were the senior military leaders of the Confederate States Army (CSA), serving during the American Civil War between 1861 and 1865. They were often former officers from the Regular United States Army prior to the Civil War, while others were given the rank based on merit or when necessity demanded. Most Confederate generals needed confirmation from the Confederate Congress, much like prospective generals in the modern U.S. armed forces. Like all of the Confederacy's forces they answered to their civilian leadership, in particular Jefferson Davis, the South's president and therefore "Commander in Chief" of the Army, Navy, and Marines in the Confederacy.

[edit] History

Much of the structure of the CSA Army was based on the structure of the U.S. Army when the Confederate Congress established by their War Department on February 21, 1861.^[1] Six days later a General Staff was authorized, consisting of four positions; an Adjutant-General, a Quartermaster-General, a Commissary-General, and a Surgeon-General. Initially the last of these was to be a staff officer only.^[2] The post of Adjutant-General was filled by Samuel Cooper (the position he had held in the Regular Army from 1852 until resigning) and he would hold it throughout the Civil War.

Initially the Confederate Army commissioned only Brigadier Generals in both the volunteer and regular services, but eventually they would have four separate ranks of general in the volunteer ranks.

[edit] Brigadier Generals

These generals were most often infantry brigade commanders, aides to other higher ranking generals, and War Department staff officers. By war's end the Confederacy had ---- men at this rank.

[edit] Major Generals

These generals were most often infantry division commanders, aides to other higher ranking generals, and War Department staff officers. By war's end the Confederacy had ---- men at this rank.

[edit] Lieutenant Generals

There would be ---- Lt. Generals in the Confederate Army, including James Longstreet, Richard Taylor, John Bell Hood, Nathan Bedford Forrest, A. P. Hill, and Richard Ewell among others. These generals often were corps commanders within armies and department heads.

[edit] Full Generals

Originally five men in the south were appointed to this rank, and only three more would follow. These generals occupied the senior-most posts in the Confederate Army, mostly General Staff and Army or Department commanders, and advisers to Jefferson Davis. The first group was Samuel Cooper, Albert Sidney Johnston, Robert E. Lee, Joseph E. Johnston, and P.G.T. Beauregard, and their seniority was in that order. This ordering had several effects on the military effectiveness in the South, most notably the relationships of Davis towards both Johnston and Beauregard.
