"Exploring the Scope of Public Performance Rights"
November 13, 2007
Good morning, Chairman Leahy, Ranking Member Specter, and Members of the Committee. I am proud to be here today on behalf of the MusicFIRST Coalition, and to speak on behalf of its 150 Founding Artist members and the thousands of recording artists, musicians and singers who belong to its member organizations.
I am a songwriter, guitar player, singer, recording artist, and sometimes an actor. I am a member of the American Federation of Musicians, the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, the Recording Academy and SoundExchange, all of whom are working together within MusicFIRST. I am incredibly lucky to be able to make my living creating art for others to enjoy. Performers like me don't spend our days thinking about the Copyright Act, but we know that we depend on the law to help preserve the value of our art. Thank you for all the work you do to protect creators, and for holding this hearing on performance rights today.
One of my first public performances was at the age of seven, singing "Long Tall Texan" in a school talent show. I grew up in Texas and I still live there in my grandfather's house. My life and music are forever linked to Texas, but I also play with musicians and singers from Nashville and all over the country. We draw our music from many American traditions, including country, folk, rock, jazz, blues and swing. The issue you are considering today matters to performers all across the U.S., recording all kinds of music.
Making a living in music is difficult and risky. Over the years I've seen how many talented and hardworking creators struggle in this hard business. You have to spend years learning your craft, honing your skills, and developing the ability to do instinctively whatever is needed to communicate musically with your fellow performers and your audience.
Songwriters and performers are both entrepreneurs and small businesses, relying on lots of different income streams in order to survive. But in this patchwork of income streams, there has always been one incomprehensible anomaly: when a recording is played on over-the-air radio, the songwriter who wrote the words and music receives a performance royalty, as he or she should. The performer, however, receives nothing.
Of course, the songwriter who created the song deserves to be compensated when that work generates value for another business, as it does for radio. I'm proud to be an ASCAP member, and grateful for the performance royalties that have helped me to earn my living as a songwriter. But the musicians and singers who perform the song are also creators and deserve to be compensated as well.
When radio plays these recorded works, they generate profit for themselves because they attract listeners and advertising dollars. Yet radio has never compensated performers for the value their creative work brings to the radio industry, because the Copyright Act does not protect sound recordings in the same way it protects the underlying songs. This has been the status quo for many years.
But the more I think about the inherent value that recording performers bring to radio, the more I believe that it has always been unfair for recording performers, and sound recordings alone, to be singled out as ineligible for compensation.
The radio industry says that radio airplay benefits performers by "promoting" a song - the idea that someone else (conveniently not the radio station) may pay for another use of it later - like a listener buying a CD or a concert ticket after they hear a song on the radio. Of course, the radio station benefits under this model because it does not pay for its own use - the use that allows it to draw listeners and get ad revenue.
Let's face it. No one tunes into a radio station to hear the commercials. The fact that someone else might pay for another use of music doesn't excuse radio from paying for its own use. Especially when radio is making money by using music.
Dan Brown sold a whole lot more copies of his book The DaVinci Code after the movie came out, but no one would suggest that the motion picture studio could make his book into a movie without paying him for the privilege, just because he got some promotional benefit. In fact, I can't think of any other copyrighted work that has a "promotional benefit exemption." And, as I said, radio pays songwriters when they broadcast their tunes, even though they also get a promotional benefit.
Don't get me wrong. I love radio, and I appreciate the support I've gotten from radio over the years. But business is business, and fair is fair - and they shouldn't get to profit off the music we create without compensating us.
Radio calls paying for the music it uses a "tax." Artists don't deserve the indignity of calling appropriate compensation for their hard work a "tax." Paying me for the use of my property is not a tax. It's compensation.
It also would be extremely helpful to performers, and to the U.S. balance of trade, to bring our music industry into line with the rest of the developed world. Foreign radio stations often broadcast a high percentage of American music, but we don't get our share of the royalties due to our lack of a right in the U.S. This is amazing. We're responsible for 30-50% of music played on stations around the world, and we don't have a performance right? I can understand why China, North Korea, and Iran might not. But the United States?
I've talked a fair amount about myself today, but this issue is not about me. It is about the thousands of performers across the country who work so hard to earn livings that are very modest in relation to their talent. It is also about the future of American culture and its ability to support the creators we need. I am honored to have been given an opportunity to speak for them. I realize that you are at the very beginning of a legislative process, and that there will be many issues to consider and resolve, including how to protect the rights of songwriters while creating new rights for performers. But I'm sure we can get this done so it's fair and square for everyone involved.
Thank you for giving me your time today, and for all your efforts on behalf of creators as you work on this issue.

Clean, comfortable, spacious room with adequate amenities. Location in the town is tucked away amid other local housing, which added to its charm and uniqueness. We felt like part of the community. Our first night there we found ants everywhere in the apartment. We quickly bought ant spray and kept all food (even dry cereal) in the frig, which solved the problem.

Goede ontvangst, vriendelijk en zeer klantvriendelijk personeel . Het appartement is vrij nieuw en er zit een grote woonkeuken in., alleen de inventaris van de keuken is minimaal. Nadat wij daar opmerkingen over hadden gemaakt werd alles in het week gesteld om het ons zo goed mogelijk naar de zin te maken en dat is ze ook gelukt.

By KEVIN KELLY Kentucky Afield Magazine FRANKFORT, Ky. - Local food sources and sustainable food options are of increasing importance to today's health-conscious consumers. Kentucky offers anglers an abundance of fishable water with some of the best tasting fish nature has to offer, and a good day can provide a bounty for the dinner table and freezer for far less than you're likely to pay in a supermarket or restaurant.
The Trimble County Raiders bowed out of the Kentucky High School Athletic Association's post-season tournament on Wednesday, Feb. 26, as the defending Eighth Region Champion South Oldham Dragons dispatched the Raiders 88-60 in the 29th District Tournament played at North Oldham High School in Goshen.
A stellar basketball season came to a screeching halt for the Trimble County Lady Raiders only one game into the Kentucky High School Athletic Association's post-season basketball tournament Thursday. After falling behind late in the first half, Trimble could get close but never quite over the hump late in the game and fell to South Oldham by a score of 61-54 in the 29th District Tournament held at North Oldham High School in Goshen.
The Kentucky High School Athletic Association's 29th District Basketball Tournament gets underway Tuesday, Feb. 25, and continues Wednesday, Feb. 26. Championship games will be played on Friday, Feb. 28. All games will be played at North Oldham High School, located at 1815 South Highway 1793 in Goshen.
The Trimble County Raiders will face South Oldham in Tuesday night's boys' contest, which will be played at about 7:30 p.m., following the girls' 6 p.m. match-up between Oldham County and North Oldham.
By DAVE TAYLOR The Trimble Banner The Trimble County Raiders bounced back from their heart-breaking 56-55 loss to Carroll County in the boys' 8th Region All A Classic to defeat Frankfort's Western Hills High School in a dramatic, 49-44 road win Thursday. Trimble trailed the Wolverines by a 11-6 score after the first eight minutes of play and matched their hosts point for point in the second period to continue to trail by five, 23-18, at halftime.
Trimble County's exciting run in the Touchstone Energy All A Classic tournament came to a disappointing end with a 65-48 second round loss to Newport Central Catholic on Friday.
"That was the most exciting game I've seen in years!"
Those were the first words off the lips of many an excited fan of the Trimble County Lady Raiders following the "never-say-die" team's thrilling come-from-behind double overtime victory over Murray last Wednesday in the opening round of the Touchstone Energy All A Classic Tournament at Frankfort's spacious Convention Center.

Wilson heads Surrey school board
After serving as chairperson for four years, Trustee Laurae McNally has handed the gavel to fellow Trustee Shawn Wilson, the new head of the Surrey Board of Education.
McNally, who's in her 29th year a Surrey trustee, has been chair since 2008, although she also spent several years in the '80s and '90s leading the board.
At Thursday's public board meeting, she said she's ready for a break from the role.
"I just want to go out to schools and see students and teachers – that's where my heart is," said McNally.
District Supt. Mike McKay lauded her for her "exemplary" leadership, as did her board colleagues.
Wilson has been a board members since 1999 and previously served as chair from 2003 to 2007 and was vice-chair from 2000 to 2003 and 2008 to 2011.
He was acclaimed as chairperson, as was Trustee Laurie Larsen, who was named the new vice-chair.
Board of education chair and vice-chair are elected annually. Trustees may not hold the office of chairperson for more than two consecutive terms, unless the board waves the restriction, as they did with McNally over the past two years.

text: Stress of Weight Loss Can Elevate CRPByron's Comments:The stress of losing weight can raise inflammation, especially on a low carb approach. Study Title:Low carbohydrate, high fat diet increases C-reactive protein during weight loss.Study Abstract:OBJECTIVE: Chronic inflammation is associated with elevated risk of heart disease and may be linked to oxidative stress in obesity. Our objective was to evaluate the effect of weight loss diet composition (low carbohydrate, high fat, LC or high carbohydrate, low fat, HC) on inflammation and to determine whether this was related to oxidative stress. METHODS: Twenty nine overweight women, BMI 32.1 +/- 5.4 kg/m(2), were randomly assigned to a self-selected LC or HC diet for 4 wks. Weekly group sessions and diet record collections helped enhance compliance. Body weight, markers of inflammation (serum interleukin-6, IL-6; C-reactive protein, CRP) oxidative stress (urinary 8-epi-prostaglandin F2alpha, 8-epi) and fasting blood glucose and free fatty acids were measured weekly. RESULTS: The diets were similar in caloric intake (1357 kcal/d LC vs. 1361 HC, p=0.94), but differed in macronutrients (58, 12, 30 and 24, 59, 18 for percent of energy as fat, carbohydrate, and protein for LC and HC, respectively). Although LC lost more weight (3.8 +/- 1.2 kg LC vs. 2.6 +/- 1.7 HC, p=0.04), CRP increased 25%; this factor was reduced 43% in HC (p=0.02). For both groups, glucose decreased with weight loss (85.4 vs. 82.1 mg/dl for baseline and wk 4, p<0.01), while IL-6 increased (1.39 to 1.62 pg/mL, p=0.04). Urinary 8-epi varied differently over time between groups (p<0.05) with no consistent pattern. CONCLUSION: Diet composition of the weight loss diet influenced a key marker of inflammation in that LC increased while HC reduced serum CRP but evidence did not support that this was related to oxidative stress.

UCLA Atlantic History Colloquium
Wednesday, May 01, 201312:00 PM - 2:00 PM6275 Bunche HallUCLA CampusLos Angeles, CA 90095
This paper examines the development of the institution known as "castle slavery" on the Gold Coast (West Africa) in the era of the transatlantic slave trade and explores the lived experiences of castle slaves within a comparative Atlantic World framework. It argues that castle slavery bears significant resemblances to forms of creole elite slavery in the Americans, and considers the particularly complex roles of female castle slaves.
About the Speaker: Rebecca Shumway is an affiliated faculty member at Carnegie Mellon University. She received her PhD in African History at Emory University in 2004. Her book, The Fame and the Transatlantic Slave Trade (Rochester, 2011) was a finalist for the 2012 Herskovits Award sponsored by the African Studies Association.

Initial critics were up in arms over the allotted 6 months as the software giant usually provides a lengthier transition period. Michael Silver of Gartner saw the planned duration as having the potential to cause a real mess for large businesses still relying on XP. He argues that companies would be forced to buy XP-ready systems prior to the deadline, or subsequently be stuck with Vista-only downgrades.
After April 2010, if a company were to buy new systems and wanted to stick with XP, it would have needed to purchase PCs with Vista Business or Ultimate for XP downgrade rights. The problem is, transitioning to Windows 7 from XP would then force them to also buy upgrade licenses - they'd essentially pay twice.
For now, naysayers are appeased with the extension unless a service pack for Windows 7 actually shows up six months after the operating systems appearance, of course.
User Comments: 14
Got something to say? Post a comment-
Where would we find an official announcement.
But the download everybody here wants is from VISTA to XP. Do you have any useful information on that?
Other than conversations with Microsoft spokespeople, I'm not aware of any particular "official announcement." Feel free to contact them, I'm sure they'll respond with confirmation.
It's no wonder that everyone on your end wants Vista to XP downgrades - because Windows 7 hasn't even been launched yet .
What "useful information" are you looking for?
Yes go buy a copy of windows Xp or wait until Windows 7 and download virtual xp.
They're working on an 8 year old OS and STILL want the transition period up from 6 to 12 months?!
I could never go back to XP from Vista, not to mention from Windows 7. They are just superior OSes.
Sure, they need more juice to run, but didn't all OSes before XP required this?
@Captain828: The new transition period is 18 months long, an effective 12 month extension from the previous 6 month time frame.
Not all people have that additional "juice" and a bulk of the uproar is concerning business-oriented machines, where the leap from Vista to XP (and hardware upgrades) on hundreds or thousands of systems isn't justifiable.
Businesses also didn't want to pay twice (buying Vista machines for access to an XP downgrade license after the 7 downgrade option expired, and then having to pay again for a 7 upgrade later on).
As much as you (and others) prefer Vista, and as old as XP may be, the near-decade old OS is more than enough for the average person and/or company. Up until this last 6 months I had been using XP, and I used Windows 2K until very late in 2007. Can't say I had any problems with either.
Just because MS ends support for an OS doesn't mean you have to stop using it.
And remember, Windows 7 with Virtual XP is the bomb - I have my entire original XP machine in a VM that I can wake up in seconds and use those creaky old apps that I lost the install files for.
Its going to be so funny in 2020 when these same whiny morons that wanted XP bash Microsoft for keeping it around too long and screwing their computers up.
Go to Linux or buy the new Windows and stop playing these stupid games. Apple would never do this with an older version of OSX and their users would never expect it.
Add is funny to read troll-ey ignorants like, gezz, take a break.
This is analogous to the DTV transition...
Im a big fan of the '69 mustang. i think Ford should be required to build me one.....geezus
The fact that Microsoft is being expected to keep a 10yr old OS available for people who don't want to buy the new one is absurd. The fact that Microsoft has provided a virtual machine with Windows XP in it as a free download for Windows 7 users who have legacy applications is unprecedented.
If I were Microsoft, I'd tell people who still want XP to shove it. As stated above, just because Microsoft won't support it or sell it anymore doesn't mean you have to stop using it.
Stop using Lotus 1-2-3. Seriously. Most applications are compatible with Windows Vista and Windows 7, and if they are not, it's because they have been out of development since, at the absolute latest, early 2007. If it was released after January 2007 and isn't compatible with Windows Vista, then it's crappy software, and you should consider an alternative.
If your business' proprietary software won't run on Windows 7, then you should probably tell your programmers to fix it, or suck it up and hire some competent ones. If you think it won't work, but haven't tried it because you are a big ***** and are afraid of change, then consider this: It's not Microsoft's fault that you are stuck in 2001.
If you are so happy with your 2001 OS, why don't you buy some 2001 computers to run it on? They are a lot cheaper now, and man, they are some sexy machines. It's okay. You can be honest. You LOVE those old white-box systems. They make your wee-wee hard.
Oh, Guest, you are such a funny person.
help to downgrade my sony vaio cwf16 from windows 7 to Xp
The problem was magnified unnecessarily by Microsoft's requirement that HP, IBM/Lenovo, Compaq, Sony, eMachines, Gateway, Dell, and the rest stop supporting these older versions... Drivers disappeared, computer information disappeared.
As far as I am concerned, forcing the industry to go "modern" was a criminal conspiracy of sorts.... of course those companies no longer wanted to support those old systems.
But a great number of people around the world can get by with a simple, old computer. It can give the means to communicate and to prepare documents and keep their stuff.
We have large numbers of clients on both sides of the border whose old machines we support with Windows 98 and 2000. They cannot afford more or better. Think of what this will eventually do to the millions upon millions of users.
There are 24 language versions of Windows XP used by people who speak 140 languages. the number of WXP machines must be very high.
All for the bottom dollar with little respect for the users.
It would be terrific if Microsoft just stopped punishing users of Windows 98 and 2000 when XP came out for use of illegal software. Let them use it free. Sometime in the future, let them use WXP free. No support. But no punishment either. Think of how this could change the lives of peoples all over the world.
This would work much better than the crummy little machines in African huts that break down within a year, and for which no parts are available.
We have lived in 27 countries. This change in control would change lives all over the globe.

text: In God's own ink with bloody hands, he writes his life away. Incarcerated..... yet he's free to have his final say. Dark and dank, his tiny cell becomes a living tome, to tell a tale of villainy, of madness and of home. His maiden fair returned his love with evil and deceit. She led him here into a trap his enemy to meet. At length she saved him from an end a death both quick and sure. She left him in this dungeon dark forever to endure the memory of her false heart and one who stole it all. He tells it all right from the start it flows upon the wall, and when his bright red ink runs dry the angels come to read. He falls upon the stones to die with no words left to bleed.

Dozens of people who filed their federal income tax returns electronically through a free program sponsored by the Urban League of Greater Chattanooga thought they would have received their refunds by now.
Instead they are finding that the IRS rejected their returns filed via the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance, or VITA, program.
Compounding the problem, some clients said their calls to the Urban League to ask about the problem weren't always returned promptly. That left clients to wonder what was going on.
VITA: If you filed your return electronically through the VITA program and it has not been received by the IRS, call the Urban League at 756-1762. A tax coordinator will assist in correcting any errors.
IRS: Call consultant Joseph Kotsis at 290-5319 or e-mail email@example.com.
Online: Visit www.IRS.gov. Go to "Where's my refund" on the site. If after three or four days the website still says the tax return has not been received, there may be a problem.
Urban League officials said Wednesday they didn't initially realize anything was wrong.
But, "as soon as we learned there was a problem we got on top of it," said Chief Operating Officer James McKissic.
He and other officials blamed the rejected returns on a combination of tax law changes approved late last year and a delay in updating computer software.
"Remember this year when government officials waited and changed the tax laws at the last minute?" said McKissic. "That caused the VITA IRS software, called Tax Wise, to not be totally updated when the VITA program started."
Dan Boone, IRS spokesman for Alabama and Tennessee, said the agency had to reprogram computers to accommodate three deductions that were reinstated.
"We announced in January that we would be able to process returns with those three deductions starting Feb. 14," Boone said.
But McKissic said that wasn't communicated to the Urban League, so its VITA volunteers started filing tax returns, including the deductions in question, before then.
Only 67 clients, those who itemized taxes and filed during the first weeks of the tax season, have been affected by the problem, McKissic said. That's a small part of the estimated 4,000 returns the Chattanooga-area VITA program expects to file by the time tax season is over, he said.
"We've been doing this for seven years. This is the first time we've had these problems," McKissic said.
The clients in the Chattanooga area weren't the only ones affected.
Boone said the delay in updating the computer software affected about 6 percent of income tax filers across the country.
correction working
VITA program clients and Urban League officials learned there was a problem only recently after looking up completed tax returns online.
Urban League computers showed that the filed taxes were acknowledged as received by the IRS. But when clients looked them up at home, the IRS website indicated the returns had not been received, McKissic said.
The Urban League's software has since been updated, but clients with tax returns that have been filed but not received by the IRS are asked to call the Urban League.
James Stoker was among the nearly six dozen people whose returns were rejected.
The 64-year-old fleet manager for U.S. Xpress said the Urban League's correction process worked for him.
"They did the service for me at no charge and it (the problem) just boils down to a computer glitch," he said.
After leaving messages with the Urban League, he said an IRS representative called him Tuesday and said they were working on the issue. When he checked IRS.gov on Wednesday, the website showed that his refund is being processed.
McKissic said his office has gotten a lot of phone calls and has hired two people this month to assist with all the questions.
"We're doing everything we can to correct this," McKissic said.
He said he still encourages tax filers to use VITA, a program intended to help those who earn up to $50,000.
"People should still use the Urban League VITA Program because it's still the best deal in town," McKissic said. "It's totally free."

KB: 3. And if I am still standing after my record
of 18 shots.......Tequila....never bet me in drinking
My friends and I used to have a tradition where the birthday boy would have to drink the same number of Kamikazees as his age. Of course, everyone else would do the same just to show our support. Man, the 80's were crazy! OK, maybe we were the crazy ones
Foxxee_red: snomobiling and Tequila in a big back yard is fun, you just gotta watch out for the tree's in the yard lmfao......
OMG, I almost died! My 22nd birthday and I did 30 shots (I guess 22 just didn't cut it). Went snowmobiling around midnight and came within a foot of nailing a big Oak tree at full speed. We put the tradition to rest after that
Foxxee_red: I have had some funny experiences with Tequila so I try not to have 2 many
Sounds like we have a few things in common. Spring Break, Ft. Lauderdale, 1988, a few too many shots of Jose and oh my, did I do that?
No more hard stuff for me, now I prefer Beck's beer or a good Merlot

Muslim New Yorkers and civil rights advocates took to the streets in Queens Saturday to protest alleged racial profiling by law enforcement.
Citing recent raids and increased surveillance of their communities, they rallied against what they call unfair targeting of Muslims.
The nonprofit group Desis Rising Up and Moving organized the protest outside the Flushing Public Library.
"An entire community and people and religion should not be profiled or characterized as terrorists because of certain investigations," said DRUM Executive Director Monami Maulik. "We understand that investigations should happen but they should happen in a manner that's lawful and respects people's dignity and due process rights."
Naiz Khan, seen above, a Muslim Queens resident, said he was placed under FBI surveillance after befriending Najibullah Zazi, an Afghan immigrant accused of plotting a terror attack here in the city.
Zazi stayed with Khan in the days leading up to the failed attempt.
"My life has been affected by this. I have no job now. I am looking for a job," said Khan. "The people who would give me a job [beforehand], if they heard about me, they will not give me that job again."
In response, New York Police Department officials said in a statement: "New York City has been the target of various terrorist plots at least eight times we know of since the destruction of the World Trade Center and the death of over 2,700 people there. The NYPD does not engage in racial profiling. It follows leads in terrorism cases in much the same way it follows leads in gun trafficking and other cases of criminal activity."

Comments about butter LONDON 3 Free Nail Lacquer, Primrose Hill Picnic, .4 fl oz:
This polish is an opaque glossy pink. I am getting better at manicures, and tonight got all nails finished with one coat! What I love is that the formula is thick not runny and doesn't form air bubbles. The small brush lays down polish in three strokes. The cost is higher than most of us spend on nail polish. But in my limited experience, higher quality than the drugstore brands I was using.
If you decide to try butter...do buy from Beauty.com.

Definition of long-day in English:
Syllabification: long-dayadjective
- (Of a plant) needing a long period of light each day to initiate flowering, which therefore happens naturally as the days lengthen in the spring.More example sentences
- The genetic control of flowering has been extensively studied in Arabidopsis, a quantitative long-day plant that flowers faster under long days than short days.
- Cereals of temperate origin are typically long-day plants, and this causes heading during spring and early summer, so that the crop ripens towards the end of the growing season.
- In the long-day plant Arabidopsis, flowering is accelerated under photoperiods exceeding a critical daylength.

Not really sure why you are having the installation problems that you are. Along with JD's recommendations, make sure that you have Administrative Privildges as well as having the UAC turned off (slider set to lowest setting) and your A/Virus software disabled just for the Installation. Some A/V software will stop certain edits to the Windows Registry. Make sure your .NET is at 4.0
I would make sure that you are current on all Windows SP's and hotfixes for your O/S and current graphics card drivers.
I would use the Autodesk Clean Un-Install to remove all traces of the old install prior to trying to re-install the software.
Stuff like this can result from a corruption somewhere in your user profile. Try starting Inventor from a different login (with power user privileges or better). If this works, then delete every bit of anything related to Inventor from your profile and try again.

I'm currently working on the graphics drivers and should have it finished soon. I'm able to run revit 2012 so i'm not sure why its a problem, anyways..
I will turn off my a/v during the install and I hope it works! Thanks for all the help!
Same exact problem with ALL of these issues addressed. I'm fed up and pissed. Can someone pless point me in the direction of a customer support rep?
all support is through the reseller channel
FYI vista is not a supported OS anymore with any 2013 products
it also could be your computer can't handle inventor 2013
Alright, so what If I were to try inventor 2012?
Attempted to install the 2012 version and to my surprise I found this!
I'm now going to attempt to install AutoCAD_Architecture
Check in the primary folder for the installation (where the setup.exe file resides), there should be a "readme" file.
A 6 or 7 year old computer?
When was the last time the HDD was reformatted and OS re-installed (a lot of garbage can build up over several years).
I was running an old computer (about the same specs as yours) and it was getting slower and slower and I had trouble installing Autodesk Simulation. New install of the original OS and it worked better than it had in years.
Where are you getting the 2012 software (student download?)?
As noted above this is a free peer-to-peer user support group, not the Autodesk support.
Support is through your VAR (Value Added Reseller).
There is also peer support here and often Autodesk Employees chime in, but provide all information

Bright House Networks today increased its Internet service speeds, bringing many customers faster downloads of movies, photos, and other online entertainment.
The cable provider's Turbo High Speed Internet now offers download speeds of up to 30 Mbps instead of the previous 20 Mbps, Bright House Networks spokesman Donald Forbes said. Its Lightning Internet service jumps to 60 Mbps from 40 Mbps.
Forbes said the upgraded services would cost "about $5 more" than the existing prices. He did not discuss specifics. The cost for customers who already have the Turbo and Lightning services remains the same.
Businesses using Bright House Networks Internet also will see a boost to 70 Mbps in their connection speeds, Forbes said.
Customers can always check their existing Internet download and upload speeds by using Speed Test. The company also provides mobile apps in Apple's App Store or Google Play for Android devices.

Finally! Robocalls are illegal*! Woo hoo!
I have not put myself on the "do not call" registry because as CEO of the BBB, I am interested in what telemarketers are telling consumers and how their pitches are evolving. I admit, though, I rarely answer phone calls when I don't recognize the number. I let the answering machine pick it up and listen to the pitch over the speaker. I find the recorded sales pitches THE most annoying. Apparently, so did a lot of America, and the FTC listened. Effective September 1st, robocalls are illegal*.
*Yes, that's an asterisk. We, at the BBB, don't like asterisks in marketing because they mean "not really." But in this case, there are just a couple of exceptions to the rule. Robocalls are legal when used for information purposes. So you will still get those calls from the school and the governator. Also, if you give permission to, let's say, your phone company to contact you with offers from time to time. Permission in advance will allow them to robocall you. Just remember, if you have the ability to grant permission, you have the ability to take it away. Don't be afraid to use your abilities.
The best part is not that the robocalls are illegal, but that you can do something about it when they interrupt your lovely evening. You can ask them the name of the company, the address and phone number. Then you can let them know that their call is illegal, and that you are going to report them to the FTC. You can then hang up, log on to ftc.gov and file a complaint. I did it, and it's easy. OK, so you won't immediately hear sirens going off as they run to apprehend those doggone criminals, but you have done your part to see that the bad guys are getting on the radar screen. And I have to admit, that feeling of defending my consumer rights mitigates the annoyance factor of another robocall.
Try it. I dare you.

LINCOLN — One state senator, Charlie Janssen of Fremont, is expected on Monday to announce his plans to run for governor, while another lawmaker, Steve Lathrop of Omaha, said he's very seriously considering the race.
The contest for the governor's job in 2014 was thrown wide open by the recent resignation of Lt. Gov. Rick Sheehy, who had been considered the front-runner and has already returned the $200,000 in campaign donations he had amassed.
Janssen, a 42-year-old Republican, said recently that he wants to run for the post, which will be vacated by Gov. Dave Heineman because of term limits. He will make his announcement at noon Monday at Midland University in Fremont.
Janssen, who was elected in November to his second four-year term in the Legislature, has been an advocate for tougher immigration laws but has been unsuccessful in getting such legislation passed. He has also pushed requirements that voters present identification at polling places, and is seeking to rescind a law passed last year that provides state-funded prenatal care for the unborn children of illegal immigrants.
Janssen is the majority owner of a company that provides temporary health care workers for hospitals and other medical institutions. He is married and has three children.
Lathrop, a 55-year-old Democrat, said he is taking a serious look at running for governor.
An attorney and chairman of the Legislature's Business and Labor Committee, Lathrop has helped mediate such matters as collective bargaining and stem-cell research. He also led a special committee that addressed the troubled Beatrice State Developmental Center.
The senator said he has decided against a run for U.S. Congress in Omaha's 2nd Congressional District because he feels he could have more impact as governor.
Lathrop said he plans to make a final decision this spring.
Another Democrat, Chuck Hassebrook of Lyons, a former member of the University of Nebraska Board of Regents, has expressed interest in the race.
On the Republican side, Regent Tim Clare of Lincoln has stated his interest in the race, and State Treasurer Don Stenberg has said he is reconsidering a run in light of Sheehy's withdrawal.

The Canada national football team represent Canada in international gridiron football competitions. It is controlled by Football Canada and is recognized by the International Federation of American Football (IFAF). While Football Canada is the governing body for amateur Canadian football, IFAF-sponsored games are played using American football rules. They competed for their first IFAF World Championship in 2011.[1]
Canada has also developed the Canada national football junior team which is an elite developmental program which participates in the International Federation of American Football (IFAF) Under-19 World Championship planned to be held every 2 years. This tournament was previously known as the IFAF Junior World Cup. Canada won the 2012 Under-19 championship, upsetting the favorite and host team, the United States, to give the U.S. national team its only loss to date in international competition.
Football Canada became a full member of the IFAF in 2004.[2] Thereafter Canada competed in international junior, flag, and women's football events.[3] In 2011 it was announced that Canada would organize a senior men's team for international competition. They made their international debut at the 2011 IFAF World Cup.[1] The team's head coach will be Larry Haylor, former head coach of the University of Western Ontario Mustangs.[1]
Unlike the U.S. national team, active professional players are allowed to participate, and a handful of Canadian Football League players participated on the national squad, although the fact that the CFL's season overlapped with the 2011 World Championship prevented most of the best non-import players in that league from participating.

Popular diet pills such as Dexatrim and Hydroxycut are known to increase energy and trim body fat. While these types of pills may seem like a simple weight-loss solution, cardiovascular experts warn they may cause serious heart threats, including increased heart rate and blood pressure.
Many weight-loss pills used to contain ephedra, a substance that boosted energy and helped with weight loss. However, ephedra was banned by The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) after several consumers suffered from stroke, high blood pressure and irregular racing heartbeat, possibly leading to death.
After the ban, diet pill manufacturers simply exchanged ephedra with an increased amount of herbal products including caffeine, ginseng and green tea.
These herbal products, especially combined with additional intake of caffeine, can significantly increase heart rate and blood pressure. Some of the herbal products may even cause a drug reaction, especially with blood thinners.
One of the biggest myths is that herbal products are natural and therefore are healthy for you or do not have side effects. The truth is taking large amounts of natural products can cause problems especially in people with heart disease.
If you're considering taking a weight-loss pill, you should evaluate the effects it could have on your heart, and follow these tips:
Consult your pharmacist at your local drug store. Pharmacists should also be able to help determine if your medications will interact with weight-loss products.
Do not be deceived by "ephedra free." This likely means there is an increased amount of caffeine or ephedra-like product, which can increase heart rate and high blood pressure. In people with heart disease, this may lead to chest pain or headaches.
Taking weight-loss supplements may not be the healthiest solution for your heart. If you have high blood pressure, irregular heart beat or heart failure, you are at an even higher risk for potential complications. Unlike prescription drugs, the side effects of over-the-counter and herbal pills are unclear.
So be cautious of over-the-counter weight-loss pills. It's important to talk with your physician about healthy, long-term weight-loss options, such as exercise and diet.
* Learn important new information concerning the FDA withdrawal of dietary supplements containing Ephedrine Alkaloids (Ephedra or Ma Huang) |

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable Patrick LeahyMarch 12, 2003 I would like to thank Senators Kyl, Feinstein, Chambliss, and Kennedy for holding this hearing on a topic that is so critical to my state and our nation. It makes perfect sense to conduct a joint hearing because the issues really do overlap - we need to improve the technology guarding our borders so we prevent terrorists from entering, while also assuring that whatever technologies we adopt are consistent with the need to maintain an orderly flow of people and goods across our borders. If we fail to do the former, the consequences are obvious. But we must also remember that if we fail to do the latter, our economy will suffer immeasurably. Of course, this is an area where striking an appropriate balance is exceedingly difficult, and I look forward to hearing the views of our witnesses. I would like to offer a special welcome to Asa Hutchinson, appearing for the first time before this Committee in his new capacity as Undersecretary for Border and Transportation Security at the Department of Homeland Security. I regret that we were not able to hold your confirmation hearing in this committee, but I am pleased that you are appearing before us so early in your tenure. I was also pleased to see that Stewart Verdery, a distinguished former counsel for this Committee, has been named as Assistant Secretary for Border and Transportation Security. We know that increasing the number of law enforcement personnel at our land borders is a necessary, but not sufficient, step toward improving our nation's security. In the USA Patriot Act, Congress enacted my proposal not only to triple the number of INS Inspectors, Border Patrol agents, and Customs officers at our borders, but also to provide $100 million to improve the technology we use to monitor the Northern Border and to acquire more monitoring equipment. In the same Act, we mandated improvements in information-sharing among Federal agencies, called for a faster implementation of the integrated entry-exit data system to track foreign visitors, and required that other nations that participate in the visa waiver system develop tamper-resistant passports. The USA Patriot Act was complemented by the excellent work of Senators Kennedy, Feinstein, Kyl and Brownback in last year's Enhanced Border Security and Visa Reform Act, which I was proud to cosponsor. That law provided for further increased investment in border security technology, as well as substantial improvements to our foreign student tracking system, the entry-exit data system, and the visa waiver program, among other things. We have passed two major bills in the last year and a half to safeguard our borders, and it is now time for us to exercise our oversight powers to ensure their proper implementation. We have asked the executive branch and our own General Accounting Office to study what technologies make the most sense, and today we will hear from representatives of both. There seems to be no shortage of technologies from which to choose. Companies large and small from throughout our nation are responding to the increased need for security by developing new products or retooling existing ones. In Vermont, a Bellows Falls company named AngioLaz has made the Vision Stick, a surveillance tool that can monitor otherwise inaccessible areas, including borders. Of course, it is difficult to discuss our border security without considering both the administrative challenges the new Department of Homeland Security faces and the budgetary constraints that the Bush Administration has imposed upon it. Our security depends upon the effective integration of dedicated officers who worked for 22 different Federal agencies at this time last month. I know that these employees have many questions about what the future holds for them, and I would urge Undersecretary Hutchinson, as well as Secretary Ridge, to address those questions as quickly as possible. For me, this is an issue of both national and local importance. It is a national issue because I am concerned that performance throughout the new Department will suffer if a substantial number of employees are worried about their futures. It is a local issue because I know many dedicated people in Vermont who are new Department of Homeland Security employees. For example, there were more than 1,600 INS employees in Vermont who are now working for DHS. They protect our borders, assist in the enforcement of our immigration laws in the interior, and foster legal immigration and commerce by processing applications for immigration benefits. They are the sort of well-trained and highly-educated people we need to keep if we are going to protect our nation effectively. I would strongly encourage each of you who are here today from DHS to provide as much guidance as you can to your new employees, and to retain their expertise to the maximum extent possible. As we hold this hearing about reducing the vulnerability of our borders, the Administration continues to engage in what House Appropriations Committee Chairman Bill Young has called "a pointless and harmful debate" with its own party in Congress to avoid blame for under-funding homeland security. I agree with Chairman Young that we can choose either to continue this distracting debate - as the White House apparently prefers - or to "address the real issues facing first responders" and our other security needs. Mr. Young's March 6 letter to White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card - reported widely in the press - shows that the Administration knew exactly what Congress was prepared to appropriate for homeland security. If the White House wanted more funding, it had the opportunity to demand it. Unfortunately, it is completely in keeping with this Administration's record on homeland security that it offered no complaints until after the bill was passed. First, only a few months after the September 11, 2001 attacks, the President threatened to veto additional funding of about $10 billion for new customs agents, port security, and other pressing needs, causing otherwise supportive Republican members to oppose the supplemental funding. Last summer, the President refused to spend $5.1 billion that Congress had approved on a bipartisan basis, half of which was for homeland security improvements. Now, while complaining that Congress has shortchanged our security for fiscal year 2003, the President is proposing a budget for FY 2004 that does not come close to meeting our security needs. For example, the President's budget for border security provides for less than a 3 percent increase. Our nation faces serious challenges that will not be met through incremental improvements. Neither political rhetoric nor administrative reorganization will make us safer. I look forward today to discussing something that will - improving our technology. # # # # # |

I was asked today about any FOSS Bible apps capable of displaying info on two screens (especially for use in a church with 2 wall screens). The pastor wants to be able to display the scriptures on one screen, and the related study aids on the other (preferably with out displaying the interface). I'm certain this would benefit numerous pastors, especially those who do not have materials prepared prior to standing in the pulpit. I don't know if this technology exists in the proprietary software realm, but it could be an advantage for the FOSS community. Peace, DCP |
