Deeplinks Blog posts about Terms Of (Ab)Use
Al igual que el año pasado y el anterior a ese, la EFF recibe las fiestas de fin de año con una nueva lista de deseos; cosas que nos encantaría que sucedieran para nosotros y cada usuario de internet en el mundo por estas fiestas. Estas son algunas de las acciones de parte de gobiernos, empresas e individuos, que nos encantaría ver en este nuevo año.
As we did last year and the year before, EFF welcomes the winter season with a new wishlist of some things we'd love to have happen for the holidays—for us and for all Internet users. These are some of the actions we'd most like to see from companies, governments, organizations, and individuals in the new year.
To date, thousands of people have sent messages to Congress demanding reform of the Computer Fraud & Abuse Act through EFF alone, not counting the ones sent through our friends at Demand Progress and elsewhere. But the citizens of the Internet will need to shout even louder if we're going to drown out the corporate interests that have already dedicated hundreds of thousands of dollars to influence lawmakers to change the CFAA for the worst.
If you are 17 or under, a federal prosecutor could have charged you with computer hacking just for reading Seventeen magazine online—until today.
It's not because the law got any better. Earlier today, we wrote about news sites that alarmingly prohibit their youth audiences from accessing the news and the potential criminal consequences under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. In response, the Hearst Corporation modified the terms of service across its family of publications, including the Hearst Teen Network, which notably includes titles like Seventeen, CosmoGirl, Teen and MisQuince.
In a recent blog post, Jill Lesser, Executive Director of the Center for Copyright Information, responded to widespread concerns that the copyright surveillance machine known as the Copyright Alert System—or "Six Strikes"—would cripple libraries and cafes that provided open wireless networks. The title of said post: "CAS Will Not Harm Public Wi-Fi."
We disagree.

I did a quick search for a "Chocolate UV" but didn't get any hits. Must be a local fly?
Sounds like a winner.
Chocolate UV
I had the best luck on a chocolate UV that i tied up last week down at a local stream that's apart of the South Platte here in CO. I hooked 4 fish in the matter of and hour and 45 mins. 3 of wich were in between 17-20 inches (rainbows) and landed 2 one was about 18 the other was pushin 20. I hooked those 3 nice size fish on a chocolate UV and i was just wondering if anyone else has had any luck with that type of fly (kind of like a black beauty but with brown thread and brown dubbing with wings made out of flash back material) I was wondering if anyone else has heard of this fly and has any kind of luck on this emerger type bad boy that i tied in a size 20 scud hook.

Television New Zealand is helping Kiwis turn their back on the home PC.
The broadcaster has been on the forefront of what is called "catch-up TV" in commercial Australasian TV.
It has drawn people to watch OnDemand TV shows on their home computers. Now TVNZ has produced apps so they can be watched on Samsung smart TVs (with online access) before the end of the year. TVNZ OnDemand will also be on the growing array of smart mobile devices including iPads and other tablets next year. All media are moving into mobile, but the new initiative extends TVNZ's lead in video-rich content ahead of other broadcasters.
TVNZ will be the first commercial broadcaster in Australasia to deliver OnDemand on tablets and phones. And the expansion is part of TVNZ's strategy to make its content available on every screen - not just the TV.
But development for OnDemand is part of a focus on distribution that has drawn critics in the production industry who say resources have been diverted away from content.
General Manager of Digital Media, Tom Cotter and the acting head of digital media, Thor Bayer, said the new services were being monetised with additional opportunities for advertisers to target ads attached to video clips. They said there had been exponential growth in smartphones and tablets and 44 per cent of New Zealanders have a smartphone.
New Zealand has a greater issue with bandwidth allocations than other countries, but that was diminishing.
According to the Mobile Life study from market research company TNS supplied by TVNZ, 10 per cent of people owned a tablet, a figure forecast to grow in the next six months.
The survey found 12 per cent of NZ smartphone owners streamed video at least once a day, increasing to 18 per cent for 16-29 year olds.
Forty-eight per cent of smartphone owners had downloaded an application for streaming video, and 56 per cent of 16-29 year olds, according to the study of 500 people aged 16-60 issued last year.
Cotter and Bayer said uptake of mobile video downloads was behind other countries.

spotted the Artic Threat Doc and Shipwreck the other day and they were both an easy pass. can't understand why Hasbro even thought of these 2 figures and why they decided to pack Doc with Firefly's backpack....what would a Doctor in the Artic need with plastic explosive and a gas can ?
the Shipwreck just looks bad....just as bad as Artic Snake Eyes.....
sadly this is a line that is getting easier to pass by... nothing jumping out and screaming buy me.
I seem to recall 21st Century Toys selling sets like this and they were fully painted and everything. Although you were never given the option to just buy one weapon at a time.
The Ice Vipers are currently pegwarming at my local Walmart (along with about a million different Stormshadows). I remember seeing them a while back and thinking that they looked pretty cool, but just didn't feel compelled to buy them. I've never been the biggest Cobra toy collector, but I guess I'll need to pick up a few if I plan to build a mini Joe arctic team.
I picked up an Ice Viper figure today and I must say that he looks really cool. He and Shipwreck definitely share the same legs. My only complaint is that I wish he had a holster for his tiny pistol.
I still think the Arctic Shipwreck is my favorite new GI Joe figure right now.
Anyone else read the full Hasbro release for ToyFair and not see GI Joe?
Also, Collector's Convention has announced the exclusives: The Red Shadows. First revealed is Interogator. Also in the brouchre is Flint, Black Major, Red Torch Troopers and Red Shadows all done in o-ring style.
www.gijoecon.com/ri2010 for pics of Interogator and others as made available.
As Hasbro said, stores still have ****-tons of July 2009 product to sell before they even think of ordering more stuff. :)
I bought Artic Pursuit Shipwreck today!
At two different Targets, I noticed that the ROC Cover Girls were on clearance for 4 something. However, her fellow pegwarmer Destro was not on clearance. I know that there were 2 different DPCI's for the ROC figures so I guess that would explain it?
Picked up Arctic Doc and Shipwreck today along with the repainted Water Moccasin. I wonder why Hasbro repainted the AVAC pilot instead of maybe a Lampreys for an aquatic vehicle figure.
This may not bode well, but at least the local WM (haven't checked to see if it's more widespread) has not only been shrinking the section, but has marked all figures down to $4. All that were left were a handful of both Cobra Commanders (remember when Rex was impossible to find?) and about six thousand each of the first three Storm Shadows (masked, unmasked, and slashed to heck). I got one each of the CC's... I figure I can use their accessories, and maybe make some generic scientists. I might even leave Rex untouched, as a crazy looking generic scientist. :)

Number of factors
Mplus Discussion
Exploratory Factor Analysis
posted on Wednesday, May 04, 2011 - 4:46 am
I am using Mplus for an EFA on 68 items. The higher the number of factors, the better the fit gets and, particularly, the Chi-square difference is always significant for each addition of one factor I tried (until now 12).
Parallel analysis run in spss suggested 6 factors and MAP-analysis suggested 8 factors.
So my question is: when should one stop adding factors in Mplus? Which are the best indices?
I fear that if I only base my argumentation on the interpretability of the factor solution this may sound to a reviewer like chosing the result that fulfil my expections.
Thank you.

What you are seeing could come about if there are many minor factors or a very large sample size or both.
Parallel analysis is a reasonable way to find the major factors.

posted on Wednesday, January 01, 2014 - 2:33 pm
I'm new to Mplus and have got very much the same problem. My questionnaire contains 53 Items, n is 282. Parallel analysis and MAP-Test in SPSS indicate a 5-factor-model but the fit in Mplus for this model is bad.
Consequently I tried more factors. Though the fit gets better the more factors I add, the additional factors contain only 1-2 items or consist of double-loading-items only (though rotation is geomin).
In my case, is it useful to use RMSEA, CFI, TLI and SRMR to determine the number of factors or should I rely on MAP-test and parallel analysis?
Thank you very much!
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Thursday, January 02, 2014 - 10:15 am
I don't see you mention the substantive theory behind the questionnaire which should guide your item creation and the expected number of factors. Applying factor analysis to a set of items without that background is not likely to be successful - not all data can be well fitted by a factor model. Perhaps you are in the early stages of a questionnaire development in which case you should consider deleting and adding items to measure the hypothesized factors better. I think it is always useful to consider fit statistics like chi-square and RMSEA in addition to more descriptively-oriented checks like parallel analysis.
You may also ask this general (not Mplus-specific) modeling question on SEMNET.

text: I've decided to take an idea I first heard proposed by El Chuxter in another forum. I think interchangeable arms like those seen in 21st Century toys' 3 3/4" line would be a great action feature for the Star Wars line. They'd certainly add LOTS of play value! We could finally get Jedi with removeable sculpted robes! Pop off the robed arms, remove the vest-like plastic robe, and pop the non-robed arms in place! Leave it up to us to decide whether to display our Jedi with robes on or off! It'd also help to alleviate some of the criticisms regarding pre-posed figures; we'd all get a second choice of pose.

It's not the papers, It's the character. I've seen dog after dog get washed out that has solid gold papers, I've seen diamonds come out of nothing. Everyone loves an under-dog story, I hope she goes out and gives them hell. Good Skill and a bit of Luck to you and your new pup.
From someone whose first dog, was trained by me. A BYB, left-over, 16wk old, penny-saver pup, listed for $400, discounted to $300. Bought as a meat dog, who has nothing in her pedigree for 4-5 generations. Who I've somehow managed to title MH HRCH MHR, jammed he first Qual, and hunted extensively every season, is OFA excellent, never had a health issue and is clear on everything. It has truly been a great adventure, be sure to enjoy yours.

You can title a dog even with "bad" pedigrees... As long as it is smart and has drive and the proper training... certainly!

Imperial Sand Dune Recreational Area, Glamis - New Years 2007 - CounterculturePosted in Events on July 23, 2008 Comment (0)
Over the past decade or so we've brought you smatterings of Glamis coverage. But wh at was once a Romanesque bacchanal of topless college chicks and keg stands has given way to something more akin to the roots of the Glamis movement. It seems it's once again a family fun spot. Or at least that's the vibe we got from our latest visit on New Year's Eve 2007.
The Imperial Sand Dune Recreational Area, commonly referred to simply as Glamis, is framed by the Salton Sea and Mexico to the north and south, and the sprawling metropolises of Brawley, California, and Yuma, Arizona, to the east and west. And whether warranted or not, it has earned a reputation best described as the Wild West meets Mad Max. It conjures images of marauding bands of thugs adorned in Vans sneakers, sporting flavor-savor goatees, amped up on Red Bull, and fool-fueled by Budweiser. It's said they'd light your rig on fire if you got stuck, steal your extra fuel, then make off with your women folk.
Regardless of past legend, the present reality is an overwhelming show of law enforcement on big weekends and a pretty mild vibe throughout the sand-goers. Not only local ranger and border-patrol units, but sheriff's department, California Highway Patrol, and even National Guard patrol the dunes in everything from quads and 4x4 SUVs to wheel-standing buggies and aircraft. In short, law has come to the Wild West and it's safe to wear your calico skirt down Main Street.
When tasked with whipping up some event coverage on short notice, this author loaded up his flatfender, aired the tires to 2 psi, and hit the sand with camera in hand to see what he could find. So here's what was captured on a one-day voyage to the sand from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. For more info on the Imperial Sand Dunes or permit purchases, visit imperialsanddunes.org.

MOOREVILLE – Aberdeen found its plans for a return trip to Jackson spoiled, falling to Velma Jackson 60-56 in the 3A North quarterfinals.
Aberdeen (22-8), which lost last year to eventual champ Kemper County and last missed the state tournament in 2011, was down by just three in the closing seconds.
"We came out in the third quarter hoping to be aggressive because we knew the third was what would win or lose the game," Aberdeen coach Roy Hazzle said. "We just didn't seem to get on track like we should have, but you can't take anything away from them."
Aberdeen led most of the first half, taking the lead halfway through the first quarter on a Jakeese Walker basket.
The two teams exchanged leads three times in the second, with Moses Greenwood hitting a two-point shot to give the Falcons the lead for good.
Neither team was able to get much going in the third with a Walker basket at the buzzer cutting the Falcons' lead to five. Back-to-back baskets from Justin Washington and Kendarius Murray opened up Velma Jackson's first double-digit lead in the fourth quarter.
Aberdeen started to claw its way back into the game with a 3-pointer from Nick Sims and a two-point basket from Marcus Carothers to be down by four before Murray hit three free throws.
Ken McCoy scored four straight to put the Bulldogs back within three before Anfernee Brown's free throw with 3 seconds to go sealed the win for the Falcons.
Walker was the only Bulldog in double figures with 17 points, while Quindarious Witherspoon scored 21 for Velma Jackson.
Hazzle loses 10 seniors off this year's team.

0115 992 2650
Ask James
James Jones, Experian's Head of Consumer Affairs, answers your frequently asked questions about credit reports, credit ratings and identity fraud
Our commitment
It is our responsibility to manage millions of consumer credit files and so we pride ourselves on a culture of commitment
If you are a customer and have any questions regarding your own credit report then please contact us here
If you are a business and have any questions then please contact us here
Our response
We strongly refute the claims made by Dispatches, many of which were misleading, which is why we chose to appear on the show in person. We help millions of people every year to access affordable credit quickly and efficiently and in 2013 alone we provided credit reports to more than two million people and answered more than 3.5 million requests to help people to better understand and manage their credit rating and get better credit deals that they can afford to pay back. We have over 1 million CreditExpert customers, and many more who return to using our service every year because of the value it delivers and the great customer service we provide.
We would like to offer our reassurances to people in regard to the following misleading claims that Dispatches has made:
- Data accuracy and security have been and always will be our number one priority. We invest millions of pounds every year in improving the quality of the data we hold on behalf of lenders and people. One mistake is one too many and we'll always do whatever we can to rectify it. We'd also like to assure people that the accuracy of our data is of the very highest standards, is extremely secure and in its handling, we strictly adhere with all Data Protection laws.
- Contrary to Dispatches' claims about the incidents of data inaccuracy, we believe that the Credit Reference Agency (CRA) industry has an extremely good record when it comes to data accuracy. For example, although the CRA industry holds financial information on circa 45million individuals, for the year ending 31 March 2010, the number of relevant complaints to the industry regulator, the Information Commissioner's Office, received was 183 of which only 22 cases were upheld. More recently, in the period April 2013 to December 2013, the Financial Ombudsman Service received 407,200 complaints, about which only 74 related to the CRA industry as a whole, and of which only 25 were upheld. We actively encourage everyone to regularly check their credit report.
- The 'Rapid Update' process mentioned on the programme is a manual overnight update intended only for correcting significant errors that might, for example, prevent someone getting a loan. It is like a triage system in A&E to make sure the most serious cases are dealt with quickly. Up until 18 months ago our policy was to recommend to all customers to ask the lender to use this facility. We amended our guidance to staff following feedback from lenders that this was creating customer dissatisfaction because their customers were demanding use of the Rapid Update process when it was not appropriate. It is the lender's decision when to apply a rapid update and when not and they found our previous guidance unhelpful in setting false expectations with customers. The service is also free for lenders to use when they make amendments.
- Additionally, we make it clear that having a lender-like view of your CreditExpert credit report is dependent on providing all the addresses you have lived at for the last six years. This requirement is marked on our website as people go through the process to either request their £2 statutory report or sign up for CreditExpert. However, we are looking at ways we can make this process even clearer.
As the UK's largest credit reference agency, for over 30 years we have worked closely with consumers, finance education groups and charities, the media and Government to provide free educational advice and resources on understanding and improving credit reports.
Without the work of the CRA industry, lending would be riskier and bad debts would increase, the result of which would be an increase to the cost of borrowing for everyone. Millions of people every year rely on our help and advice and we're extremely proud to provide this valuable support.

krbristol: Thanks! I took this shot top to bottom.
Hi Jeffrey This is excellent and I can hardly see any stitching confusion. Did you deliberately not go too tight on the lens. I assume that you decided how many people you wanted to get in each shot. or did you ask them all to war Victorian head clamps? As a matter of interest, did you scan top to bottom or left to right?

New Mexico in a Glass
By Maren Tarro
The roots of our state's wine industry reach deep into the past, and, like tangled vines in an ancient vineyard, many surprising tidbits are found in its unraveling. For instance, grapevines were planted in the Rio Grande valley 140 years before California broke ground on its first vineyards. And while California is considered the premier wine-producing region in the New World, New Mexico has attracted a growing interest from European vintners over the past 30 years. Now more than ever, the Land of Enchantment is becoming a formidable contender in the highly competitive arena of the world's favorite fermented juice.
Sips of Our History
A timeline from ground to bottle
1629: Franciscan Fray Garcia de Zuniga and Capuchin monk Antonio de Arteaga plant vines just north of present-day San Antonio, N.M. Their Mission grapes are still grown today.
1633: Production begins to fulfill sacramental wine needs.
1800: Vineyards stretch from Bernalillo to Socorro and from Mesilla to El Paso, Texas.
1812: About 1,600 gallons of wine are processed annually.
1880: Nearly 1 million gallons of wine from 3,150 acres of grapes make New Mexico the fifth-largest wine-producing region in the United Sates.
1920: The 18th Amendment goes into effect on Jan. 16. Prohibition dramatically decreases wine production.
1920 to 1930: Vineyard acreage doubles despite the federal ban on alcohol's manufacture, sale or transportation.
1926: Rio Grande flooding causes root-rot and production falls to zero.
1933: On Dec. 5, the 21st Amendment repeals the 18th. Thirteen years of Prohibition come to an end.
1943: Flooding once again destroys vineyards. Commercial winemaking all but ceases.
1978: French-American hybrid grapes revitalize the industry, and local wineries begin opening again.
2007: New Mexico boasts 38 wineries that produce 700,000 gallons each year.
Tasting Rooms and Holiday Wines
New Mexico is home to 42 wineries, so there are plenty of opportunities to pair the perfect bottle with your holiday get-together.
Stocking up on local vintages means you'll always have a quick, thoughtful gift on hand. (It'll express your Land of Enchantment pride more than a shellacked chile ornament ever could.) And don't forget to hit up a few tasting rooms. You can try the wines side by side, ask questions, get a break on the price or just entertain all those pesky relatives who'll be invading—I mean visiting—your home. Here's a list of some of our favorite tasting rooms, along with a standout holiday wine from each. Most of the bottles listed here are $30 or less.
Be sure to check websites or call ahead for hours, as some require reservations. The wineries can also suggest retailers in your area that stock their products.

My former boss actually came to my house and helped extract some retained canines on a couple of young dogs that I had. Of course this was a much simpler procedure than the one your dog needs.
Raina Anderson WWW.FIREHOUSELABS.COM
According to this BMI chart, I am too short !!!
Several years ago, I had a young dog that rolled and broke a k9 tooth. The vet pulled it, I don't think she ever missed it.
I also had a weimaraner that bit into an electrical cord, she had 3 teeth die. We had to have the vet pull they, he told us she would get along fine with out them. She act fine.
Good luck David Wolfe
My 9 year old Golden chipped one of her canine teeth when she was about 1 1/2 years old. We went to the University close by that specializes in animal care to have her looked at. She ended up going back 3 times in the process, once for a cleaning, once for a fitting and finally for the root canal and installation of the titanium tooth. It was a little pricey, but with her being young I figured it would be worth it. She has not had a problem with it since. Good luck and I hope your dog recovers quick with no problems.

Killer ESP (Espresso.Sorbet.Pie)
- 50% off
- Only on the App
- Old Town Alexandria
- Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt, Coffee & Tea, Bakeries
Killer ESP makes King Street a billion times cooler. Opt for the pour-over coffee, the famous handmade gelato or a slice of Dangerously Delicious Pie. Or all three. (No judgement.)Old Town Alexandria is known to be more elegant than cool. More classic than contemporary. More child-on-hip than hipster. Well, forget about your stereotypes because walking into Killer ESP is like walking into an urban oasis. First, we noted the street-inspired art lining the wall. Made entirely by locals, it makes a dang fine backdrop to all the deliciousness offered. Don't miss the coffee provided by Stumptown. If the weather's hot, opt for the cold-brew coffee which is made in a three-foot apparatus that looks like a prop off the set of Weird Science. "It turns out smoother this way," said Rob, the super-friendly owner, who isn't just a coffee lover but a man of coffee science. "The best way to enjoy hot coffee is by brewing it pour-over style," he continued. "It's so smooth, you don't even need sugar." It's true. As people who enjoy our cream and sugar with a little coffee, a cup of pour-over allowed us to drink it straight. And it was glorious! Should patrons want to add to their caffeine buzz, they can opt for for a slice of Dangerously Delicious Pie, an empanada from DC's famous Julia's, or some homemade gelato. Or all three. (No judgement.) You'll walk it all off up and down King Street anyway, right?

Double Espresso, $2.75

Cortado, $3
Iced Coffee, $2.75

Description & Highlights
Kalorik Bamboo Electronic Kitchen Scale - Bamboo
Need an easy way to measure your food without having to guess? When you use the Kalorik Bamboo Electronic Kitchen Scale (EKS37068), you won't have to do any of that guesswork ever again! This thin bamboo scale can measure items of up to 11 pounds, so you can measure your ingredients with precision to get the best recipes and dishes imaginable. In case you need to measure in different units, this scale can give you the weight of your foods in grams (g), kilograms (kg), ounces (oz), or pounds (lb) so you won't have to convert the weights yourself, giving you more time to cook.
The high precision strain gauge sensor system ensures that the displayed weights on the scale are accurate, and the LCD display can easily show you the weight on it's large touch screen. This LCD display is also retractable and able to store inside the scale itself, making it easy to store in small spaces. A featured tare function enables you to weigh ingredients that need a container to be weighed. All you need to do is place the container on the scale, press the "On/Tare" button, and the scale will automatically weigh just the ingredient in the container, saving you time of having to figure out just how much the ingredient weighs! Perfect for any kitchen, this small, lightweight scale will make it easier than ever to cook the right foods every time.
LCD Display:The 2.9cm display shows you the current weights, and can easily slide into the scale for simple storage
Modern Design:With a bamboo finish, this scale can blend in with any kitchen appliances and decor to match your overall motif
Useful Functions:The tare function lets you weigh ingredients that cannot be weighed without containers, while the battery low and power indicators alert you to the scale's power level

Thread: What is going on with my frogs?
What is going on with my frogs?
I am about to lose my *third* frog to this mysterious illness, and have absolutely no clue what it is, if it's contagious, or better yet how to treat it. It always happened the same way... I wake up, find a frog floating toward the top looking very bloated. They usually survive about a day after this and I find them dead on the bottom. I don't understand it. I have a hard time believing three frogs in a row got "dropsy"... I keep my water super clean and always have enough food for them to eat, only feeding three times a week. Could this be the dreaded "chytrid" fungus I'm hearing about? I never really read about it in captive ADF populations but I think it would make sense, seeing as the legs of the one dying now seem to be sloughing off skin. Advice? Help?5 gallon planted tank - 1 female betta and one HUGE mystery snail
60 gallon planted community 3 marble lyretail mollies, 3 creamsicle mollies, 9 lampeye tetras, 5 bloodfin tetras, 4 black skirt tetras, 1 rubberlipped pleco, 3 peppered corys, 3 bumblebee catfish, 3 emerald green corydoras, 2 gold danios, and 2 giant danios

Wellington-bred, British-based Willy Moon is shaping up as our next international pop star, reports Leena Tailor from Los Angeles
It's just on 10pm in Hollywood and a crowd of music executives, fans and curious locals - from members of hip-hop quartet Far East Movement to New Zealand musician Greg Johnson - are squeezed into club hotspot Bardot.
The man they're waiting for is Willy Moon and when he takes the stage, hair slicked back and wearing one of his signature suits, they erupt into cheers.
This may be his Hollywood debut, but the dapper ex-Wellingtonian is calmly taking it in his stride following a massive year, which has seen him touring Britain with former White Stripes frontman Jack White, signing with major record labels, being named one of the year's biggest stars by Vogue and having his track Yeah, Yeah blasting around the globe as part of Apple's latest iPod commercial.
Everyone knows the tune and after he drops his debut album Here's Willy Moon tomorrow, chances are everyone will know his name.
It's all a long way from the colourful and at times rocky upbringing which saw the 23-year-old - born William Sinclair but going by Moon (he wanted to be an astronaut as a kid) - sleeping on YMCA floors, taking drugs and almost giving up on music after losing his mother.
"My parents spent money in strange ways, so we travelled to London when I was 8 but it was difficult for them to get work," he tells TimeOut. "We were staying at the YMCA and we never knew where money was coming from, but at the same time we were having amazing experiences on the other side of the world, cruising around, sightseeing or watching jazz concerts. There was a real duality to that part of my childhood.
"Then we moved back to Wellington but my mother never worked and we stole a lot. It's just what we did. We were never really, really poor, but my parents wanted us to have a middle-class lifestyle, which we couldn't afford, so it was like, 'if we can't afford it, let's steal it'."
Moon matter-of-factly recalls frantically hiding stolen goods under floorboards when the police visited their home. He says he never stole himself, and appears unfazed looking back at the wayward way his relief-teacher parents provided for the family. Of greater impact on his childhood was the loss of his mother and "best friend" Elizabeth when Moon was 12.
Her drawn-out battle with breast cancer culminated in a nine-month hospice stay and while the final goodbye was "so horrible I barely remember it", Moon is grateful he had time to prepare and credits Elizabeth for gifting him a sense of possibility.
"She strongly put in my mind that if you believe in something you shouldn't let anybody tell you you're wrong or you can't do it. She always told us if you want to achieve things it doesn't matter if you don't have the means - make them for yourself.
"I've always tried to push my boundaries and never been afraid because she instilled that in me at a young age, which I'm very grateful for."
Still, the loss took its toll. While his father landed work in Saudi Arabia, sending money home to cover mortgage payments, Moon and his 16-year-old sister were otherwise left to fend for themselves. Skipping school and getting work at bars despite his age, he defied authority and developed a fierce sense of independence.
Although he had discovered a love for guitar through his father at 7, it was Elizabeth who would sit with him while he practised and following her death he couldn't fathom ever playing again.
However, at 16 he rediscovered his passion for music after a friend asked him to form a band. By then Moon was already living a rock 'n' roll lifestyle, having dropped out of school and developing a drug habit, starting with marijuana at 13.
"I guess a psychologist would say it was because I was grieving and putting those problems into taking drugs, but I really enjoyed it. I did every drug I can think of and loved psychedelic drugs.
"But I'm not in favour of them. I've never had problems with succumbing to addictions. I'm strong-minded. For me it was more about curiosity and I've been lucky enough to be able to move on, but I've seen others who can't and it's really sad."
Heading to London with his guitar at 18, he struggled to hold down jobs but met girlfriend and fellow Kiwi Sasha, who introduced him to the music of 1940s trio The Andrews Sisters. Their sound ignited a love for music of the era and after the couple relocated to Berlin, Moon started writing and recording music.
Through uploading tracks to MySpace and bombarding labels with demos, Moon was signed with Island Records in Britain, then Interscope Records in the US, both branches of industry heavyweight Universal Music.
"I was bracing myself for that horrible thing of them interfering and trying to turn me into something that I didn't want to be, but they didn't and I think it's a tribute to my manager.
"My A&R [artists and repertoire] guy gave me a couple of pointers and has sometimes said, 'I think you should do this', to which I've generally said 'No!'
"But I think they never quite knew what to do with me, so they generally left me to it. I've been lucky they haven't tried to control my image or music."
Moon, whose Yeah Yeah video was directed by Sasha, did however face his own creative challenges while writing, recording and producing the record. At times "angry, depressed and thinking, 'f*** it'," he credits Kiwi perseverance for driving him.
"Plus, I didn't have any other options. I don't have qualifications or even School Certificate and I'm not great at working with other people, so I've always felt like if I don't make this work, I'm screwed."
The resulting 12 songs total less than 30 minutes, reflecting Moon's short attention span, and present a unique fusion of hip-hop, rock 'n' roll and jazz, with Buddy Holly and The Ramones among his biggest influences.
Currently touring the US, where he reunited with his now San Francisco-based father, he has also played on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
"It's incredible when I look back at what's happened in the last year. Everything I spent the previous year working on is becoming a reality and it's a beautiful thing.
"Getting the album done is a really great feeling. It's nice to have made something, for better or for worse.
"It doesn't matter to me how it does. I like it and I hope others feel the same way, but the fact that I made it is the main thing for me."
The ultimate goal is to "follow my heart and never have to answer to people" but for now Moon is enjoying the ride and hopes it takes him back to New Zealand soon.
"We were meant to go back at Christmas, but so many things came up. That's the problem with doing what I do for a living now ... it's very difficult to plan things."

January 23rd, 2011
Daniel Russell Woodward was my great grandfather. His grandson, Douglas R. Woodward gave me a copy of a clipping of Daniel's obituary. Since Daniel's tombstone and U.S. Pension record indicate that he died 10 January 1910, in Franklin, New Hampshire, it is very likely that this un-identified newspaper clipping is dated 13 January 1910 […y 13, 1910 at top of column] and I suspect that the newspaper is the Franklin Journal Transcript.
"Daniel R. Woodward, a well known citizen of Franklin, for many years in charge of the Cummings Brothers' marble works in this city and a prominent member of the Grand Army, passed away at his home, 116 South Main street last Thursday afternoon at the age of 76 years, eight months and 27 days. His death was due to a shock, sustained four weeks before. Mr. Woodward was born in Salisbury, April 10, 1833, the son of Daniel S. and Dorcas (Adams) Woodward. His father was a stone mason.
Mr. Woodward was a direct descendant of Hannah Dustin and also of John Quincy Adams. He was married Jan. 30, 1854, to Laura Davis of this city. They observed their 50th wedding anniversary six years ago.
Mr. Woodward came here from Penacook and had been a resident of Franklin for 58 years. He was an expert marble and granite worker and for over 50 years had worked for Cummings Bros. being in charge of the local branch of their business. He was for several years town clerk of Franklin. He was an excellent penman and for several winters taught a writing school. He was a charter member of the George F. Sweatt Post, No. 38, G. A. R., and twice served the Post as commander. For years he was adjutant of the Post. He was a member of Merrimack Lodge, No. 28, I. O. O. F., and had been through the chairs, and also secretary for 25 terms. He also belonged to Webster Encampment and had been scribe of the lodge.
Mr. Woodward is survived by his wife and sever children, Mrs. F. P. Rowe of North Boscawen, Frank D. Woodward of Amesbury, Mass., Mrs. C. E. Brodeur of Fresno, Cal., Wellington R. Woodward of Amesbury, Mass., Mrs. Grace G. Fowler of Franklin, Miss Agnes M. Woodward of Franklin, and Oscar H. Woodward of Franklin. He also leaves two brothers and three sisters, Mrs. Hannah Dickerson and Frank P. Woodward of Hill, Stephen Woodward and Mrs. Dorcas Clark of Franklin, and Mrs. Diana Roberts of Northfield Depot.
Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon from the Christian church. Prayers were said at the house by Rev. George L. Michelson, pastor of the church. The funeral was attended by Odd Fellows and Grand Army men in a body. The services were conducted by Rev. L. W. Phillips. Singing was rendered by Miss Grace Stevens and Miss Bessie C. Rowell [.] J. B. Tuttle, Jacob B. Dole, William O. Daniels and George A. Harmon of George F. Sweatt Post acted as guard of honor. The bearers were Cyrus R. Adams, H. A. Currier, Dr. M. E. Sargent and J. B. Hale from the Old Fellows. The remains were place in the tomb at the Franklin Cemetery.
Among those present at the funeral services from out of town were Miss Edith L. Rowe of Laconia, Fred Rowe of Woodsville, Miss Bessie Waddell of Boston, Milan Cummings, Arthur G. Young and Mr. Colby of Concord, Mrs. Hannah Dickerson, Filmore Dickerson, Mr. and Mr. Frank R. Woodward of Hill, Mrs. Diana Roberts of Northfield Depot, Levi Fisher of Boscawen, Frank D. Woodward and Wellington R. Woodward of Amesbury, Mass., Winnifred B. Drake of Potter Place, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Rego of Tilton.
The floral tributes included the following: Pinks, George G. Fowler; wreath, Cummings Bros., Concord; Chyacinths and pinks, Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Woodward and Miss Linnie Woodward; pinks, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Woodward; pinks, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Judkins; pinks, Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Bartlett; beiotropes, Mrs. James Grayshan and Mrs. Alfred Thompson; pinks, Miss Bessie Waddell; pillow, "Husband and Father," family; narcissus and pinks, Miss Edith Rowe; pinks, Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Judkins, Bernice and Ervin Judkins; wreath, Mr. and Mrs. F. R. Woodward."
It is interesting to note that the second paragraph states, "Mr. Woodward was a direct descendant of Hannah Dustin and also of John Quincy Adams…" I've never found any evidence that we are related to Hannah Dustin or John Quincy Adams, but then, I've never spent a lot of time investigating the family tradition.

Oops, haven't updated in a couple of days...
Wrote the code to support KIOBUF_IO that SGI uses in their XFS file system pagebuf. Unfortunately there's something up with the XFS cvs right now (unable to obtain lock bla bla), so I can't diff it and send it to Chaitanya, hopefully it'll be back up tomorrow. Gave me a chance to test the new Maxtor drives I have received, they are working great. SCSI still has quite a performance edge, though.
Also finished the last updates to 2.2.16-pre and sent them to Alan. I think I made it just before he left ;-).
My CX drive is stuck in Hannover according to the UPS package tracker. I hope they can get it here by tomorrow so that I can start hacking on pktcdvd again this weekend. My fingers are really itching to get back to that... Preparing for the worst case scenario (that I still can't get my data out), I checked with Ibas how much a data recovery operation would cost. An analysis is $475, recovery estimated between $975 and $1800. Auch.

Landauers Fallacy

Gustav Landauer's "Famous Statement"
There is a often-cited quotation by Gustav Landauer, that the state is only a relationship. It is frequently used to argue for a non-revolutionary anarchist strategy. I argue that it is mistaken and misleading. [Italiano]
Landauers Fallacy
Gustav Landauer's "Famous Statement"
Reading contemporary anarchist literature, I repeatedly come across some version of a quotation from the German anarchist Gustav Landauer (18701919). A book on anarchism and education cites Gustav Landauers famous remark (Suissa, 2010; p. 136),
The state is not something which can be destroyed by a revolution, but is a condition, a certain relationship between human beings, a mode of human behavior; we destroy it by contracting other relationships, by behaving differently. (quoted in above)The writer on education actually took this quotation from a work by the well-known anarchist writer, Colin Ward. Another version of this famous statement by Gustav Landauer (Gordon, 2008; p. 38) is cited in Uri Gordons book on the nature of anarchism,
One can throw away a chair and destroy a pane of glass but [only] idle talkers regard the state as such a thing or as a fetish that one can smash in order to destroy it. The state is a condition, a certain relationship among human beings, a mode of behavior between men [note]; we destroy it by contracting other relationships, by behaving differently toward one another We are the state, and we shall continue to be the state until we have created the institutions that form a real community . (quoted above)In either version, this statement is fundamentally wrong, I will argue. First, I will paraphrase the statement, to summarize what I think Landauer was saying. He was denying that the state is primarily an institution, a social structure. Instead, he claims that it is nothing but a set of relationships among people. He draws the conclusion that it is wrong to seek to overthrow the state in a revolution. Instead, we should develop alternative ways of relating to each other, expressed in alternate social arrangements created in the here-and-now, to gradually replace the state. (While the quotations refer to the state, I assume they generalize to all forms of oppression, particularly capitalism.)
Note that it is not I but Landauer who counterposed these approaches: either we see the state as a thing, an institution, or we see it as relationships. Either we aim for a revolution to smash the state or we build alternate relationships here-and-now. This was his view and the view of those who quote himnot mine.
The Landauer quotation is admired by those anarchists whose basic strategy is to gradually build alternate institutions until they can peacefully replace capitalism and the state. Sometimes this is called a new anarchism, although it goes back to the ideas of Proudhon, not to mention Landauer. This nonrevolutionary strategy is opposed to the supposedly old strategy of revolutionary class struggle anarchism (see Gordon, 2008; Price, 2009).
Who Was Gustav Landauer?In his time, Landauer was an influential anarchist thinker and activist. Erich Fromm referred to him as one of the last great representatives of anarchist thought (Fromm, 1955; p. 221). Jesse Cohen stated, Gustav Landauer [should] be remembered, right along with Bakunin and Kropotkin, as one of anarchisms most brilliant and original thinkers (quoted in an advertisement for a new collection of Landauers writings, at the back of Suissa, 2010). Paul Avrich, the historian of anarchism, wrote, He was also the most influential German anarchist of the twentieth century (same). Perhaps the most impressive blurb is a 1893 reference in a German police file, Landauer is the most important agitator of the radical and revolutionary movement in the entire country (same). High praise indeed!
During his political career, Landauer went from being a Marxist oppositionist among the youth of the German Social Democratic Party, to complete hostility to Marxism and dedication to anarchism. (Until I have seen the new collection of his work [Revolution and Other Writings: A Political Reader, Gabriel Kuhn ed. & trans.; PM Press], I am relying on Landauer; 1978 and Ward; 1965).
In 1919, following World War I and the Russian Revolution, revolutions swept across Europe. Landauer was invited to serve on the central council of the region of Bavaria, which was trying to establish a repoublic of workers and peasants councils. Counterrevolutionary military forces, under the orders of Social Democrats, overthrew the council repoublic. Landauer was arrested, repeatedly shot, and then trampled to death, similar to the killing of Rosa Luxemburg in Berlin. When [Luxemburg] and Gustav Landauer were murdered by the soldiers of the German counter-revolution, the humanistic tradition of faith in [humanity] was meant to be killed with them (Fromm, 1955; p. 210).
Gustav Landauers ProgramLandauers writings express keen insight into many of the problems of Marxism: its teleological determinism, its centralism, its scientism, its mostly uncritical attitude toward technology. He was entirely correct that socialism requires new ways of human beings relating to each other and of relating to nature. Almost all anarchists would agree with these views.
However, he integrated the communist-anarchism of Kropotkin with the gradualist alternative-institutionism of Proudhons mutualism. He advocating leaving the cities (and the class struggle in them). Instead he proposed building collective farms. These would spread until they replaced capitalism and the state.
The socialist village, with workshops and village factories, with fields and meadows and gardens you proletarians of the big cities, accustom yourselves to this thought for that is the only beginning of true socialism (quoted in Ward, 1965; p. 246). Let us unite to establish socialist households, socialist villages, socialist communities .They should shine out over the country, so that the masses of men [note] will be overcome by envy of the new primeval bliss of satisfaction . Landauer, 1978; p. 138).There is nothing wrong with building cooperatives or collective villages. But this is not a strategy for overthrowing capitalism and its state. Its most successful implementation were the Israeli kibbutzim, which were ideologically inspired partially by Landauers friend, the Jewish philosopher Martin Buber. Whatever their virtues, these served as agents of a capitalist, colonial-settler, new state, not socialist anarchism.
Along with his valid criticisms of Marxism, Landauer also condemned its core orientation to the working class (he similarly condemns the syndicalists). After all, he wanted the workers to leave the big cities and industries where the class struggle was being fought out and (as the famous statement has it) contract other relationships by building collective agricultural-industrial farms in the countryside. This meant that they must stop being industrial workers, proletarians.
He supported labor unions only if they worked with consumer cooperatives, using their money to buy land for collective industrial-agricultural villages. This was not a class orientation, since he also hoped for rich men [to] either join us completely or at least contribute to our cause (Landauer, 1978; p. 140).
Unfortunately, his writing is full of vile insults and degrading caricatures of the working class. Proletarians are the born uncultured plodders .The proletarians uncultured mentally is, incidently, one of the reasons why Marxism, systematized unculturedness, has been so well received by the proletariat ..The workers are not a revolutionary class, but a bunch of poor wretches who must live and die under capitalism .If the revolution came today, no stratum of the population would have less idea of what to do than our industrial proletarians. (Landauer, 1978; pp. 69, 86, 134)
It is ironic that Landauer died, not defending his fantasy of collective villages, but as part of a real working-class revolution. Whatever his weaknesses, he died bravely in the cause of proletarian anarchism.
The Famous StatementReturning now to the famous remark of Landauers: saying that the state is only a relationship between people, is like saying that Niagra Falls is just drops of water flowing downward. It is true, but misses the point. All institutions (social structures) are composed of individual humans. If a neutron bomb killed off all the people but left the buildings in which the government meets, there would be no more state. But this does not mean that, as Margaret Thatcher once said, there is no society, only individuals. When many people act in consistent, repeated, and stable patterns, then that is an institution. (By act I include both overt behavior and internal thinking and believing.) And such institutions resist change. The US national state has outlasted all those who once established it, and those who continued it, for over 200 years; the individuals are different, but the state continues.
No doubt, if tens of millions of individuals decided to live in a different, nonstate, way, this would challenge the state. But what if, at the same time, other millions decided to keep on living in a statist fashion? What if they have self-interests in living as powerful and wealthy people, and this is part of their self-conception? Statism will not be settled by how many people chose to live this way or that. It will take a clash, a conflict, a fight. Ruling classes have rarely permitted those they exploit to chose to live differently; they use force to maintain their institutions, especially the stateand the oppressed are forced to either use violence to defend their choices or to surrender to the masters.
Even Landauer notes that his strategy of collective villages and cooperatives will face state resistance. The state will place the greatest and smallest obstacles in the way of the beginners. We know that (Landauer, 1978; p. 141). What is his answer to this? Well cross that bridge when we come to it! (same). This is hardly adequate.
Socialist-anarchism will need a mass movement of workers and all the oppressed, determined to live differently, for ourselves and our children. But it will not succeed if the movement blinds itself to the obstacles, bases itself on fantasies, and refuses to prepare for an eventual revolution.

In the last few years, Anonymous has gained increasing notoriety for its action against websites, agencies and organizations that promote censorship and control. It has helped spread information and supported protestors demanding freedoms and rights. But the popularity of the movement, the attention it brings along, and the structure it has engendered threaten to push Anonymous away from the decentralized, collective movement it has been. As decisions become more centralized and newcomers jump on the bandwagon, Anonymous risks becoming yet another ineffective reformist group, fueled by well-meaning rethoric but subject to third party interests and paralyzed by its fear of authority...more >>

Nonviolence can be used in many circumstances as an effective tactic, but it is irrelevant, irresponsible, and utterly ridiculous to even consider it as a strategy. So yes, nonviolence should be utilized as a tactic where pertinent, and in turn pacifism, as an ideology and a strategy, must be purged from our movement.

The writings are taken from Anarkismo, except for the following, which was written originally for the new book. It focuses on the centrality of a vision of freedom, cooperation, and happiness in the program of anarchist-socialism.
Leftists and Communists have damaged the Socialist movement as much as the right-wing did Oct 04 1 comments
There are many people from leftists, communists , socialists and some of the anarchists believe that Marxism and Leninism are two different things . They think that Lenin has distorted Marxism. My article here explains with evidence that whatever Lenin said and did have been originated from Marx . It tells you that Marxism has contributed greatly in damaging the socialist/ anarchist movement as much as the rightwing did.

Since 9th of March, across the French territory, an important and combative social-class struggle is taking place against the labor law by which the French Government attempts to impose a total restructuring of labor relations. By constant squatting in schools, colleges and public buildings, through reappropriation of public spaces on a daily level, with strikes and sit-ins in factories and in conflict with the forces of repression, French society ‒ especially the youth ‒ holds strong resistance against the attack unleashed by the bosses and the State.
THE WORLD OF STATE AND CAPITALISM IN ABSOLUTE BANKRUPTCY Jun 06 1 comments
Todays attack on society is the result of the endless effort made by the state and bosses to transform it into a sweat-shop and a prison. Within conditions of an overall profound systemic crisis and de-legitimation of the political system, this attack is escalating. In the process, it is revealing the incurable contradictions of the state-capitalist organizational structure, as much as the absolute weakness to produce from above any coherent social vision, perspective or hope.more >>

Homebuilder sentiment hit a new six-year high in October, according to the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo housing market index. The index rose by 1 point to 41, but was slightly below economists' expectations for a reading of 42.
Builders slipped immediately after the news, even as the overall market continued its strong rise; the Dow was recently up more than 100 points.
Lennar (LEN) fell 0.7%; KB Home (KBH) was trading flat after rising earlier in the morning; DR Horton (DHI) was down 0.8%; and Toll Brothers (TOL) was off 0.7%.
The NAHB chairman expressed some concern about tight credit conditions, a constant recent complaint by builders and their representatives.
"Many builders are reporting increases in the number of serious buyers visiting their sales offices, and the overall confidence measure is much higher than it was at this time last year," noted NAHB Chairman Barry Rutenberg, a home builder from Gainesville, Fla. "The concern is that, even though demand for new homes is rising, overly tight credit conditions are still constraining new building and new purchases at a time when that kind of economic activity and the job growth it generates are greatly needed."
