Chyke Doubeni, MD, MPH, associate professor of family medicine & community health, was recognized this week by President Barack Obama as one of the country's rising scientific stars with a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers.
The Presidential Award is the highest honor bestowed by the U.S. government on outstanding scientists and engineers in the early phases of their independent research careers. Awardees are selected for their pursuit of innovative research at the frontiers of science and technology and their commitment to community service as demonstrated through scientific leadership, public education or community outreach. Granted to a select group each year, the awards are intended to recognize and nurture some of the finest scientists and engineers who, while early in their research careers, show exceptional potential for leadership at the frontiers of scientific knowledge.
"I am truly honored and feel so fortunate to have been chosen for this award," Dr. Doubeni said. "It certainly means a lot to have our work recognized at the national level. It shows that the government and the National Institutes of Health are supporting the work of my lab as well as UMass Medical School as a whole."
Doubeni joined the UMMS faculty in 2004. His research focuses on identifying and reducing disparities in health care. He has received continuous funding from the National Cancer Institute to pursue research activities on disparities in mortality from colorectal cancer and on evaluating the comparative effectiveness of colorectal screening tests. He works extensively with investigators in the Cancer Research Network through the Meyers Primary Care Institute. He also previously served as interim associate vice provost for diversity at UMMS.
Doubeni completed his residency training in family practice at Duke University before becoming a family physician at a community health center in North Carolina. There, he served as medical director and worked to provide comprehensive primary care to the underserved populations, earning the 2001 Community Service Award in Health and Medicine from the Beta Beta Beta Chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity at Wilson, N.C.
With the funding support associated with the Presidential Award, Doubeni will examine the effectiveness of screening colonoscopy in reducing death among average-risk adults. Doubeni also recently received an award from the National Cancer Institute in which he will collaborate with investigators at Kaiser Permanente Northern and Southern California, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and Erasmus University to optimize the process of screening for colorectal cancer.
"Dr. Doubeni is passionate about his work reducing inequities in access and quality of care and we are fortunate and very proud to have him as a member of our academic community," said Terence R. Flotte, MD, the Celia and Isaac Haidak Professor of Medicine, executive deputy chancellor, provost, dean of the School of Medicine and professor of pediatrics.
Doubeni is the third UMass Medical School Presidential Award recipient. In 2005, Neal S. Silverman, PhD, associate professor of medicine and microbiology & physiological systems, was recognized with the award for his research into the mechanisms controlling innate immunity. In 2006, JeanMarie Houghton, MD, PhD, associate professor of medicine and cancer biology, won the award for her work examining the role of stem cells in cancer.

OK, so I'm not advocating that the Cards MUST go get AJ Burnett or anything. In fact, I am of the opposite belief that AJ is not good for the Cardinals because he adds another oft-injured pitcher who's arm might fall off at any moment. The big "but" is, did anyone see the numbers he put up last night to stop the streaking Yankees? The Yankee lineup is completely bombing the ball right now. In the since stopped 7 game win streak, they scored 55 runs. That's almost 8 runs a game for a week. They hit .297 as a team, with an OBP of .349, and a SLG of .558 (that's a team OPS of .947!) They also had 16 homers and 17 doubles in those 7 games.
AJ's line last night:
8 IP, 4 H, 2 BB, 1 R (earned), 8 Ks (10:6 GB:FB)
That is downright nasty against that lineup.

Sorry about the stupid questions.
But I've tried so many times to get one example on my N900 but failed.
(It has firmware PR1.1.1 now)
I tried camera example, toolbar examples in maemo examples.
They works fine in scratchbox.
But when I compile/make them under sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL and put them on N900, I failed to execute them.
On N900, the programs can't be executed by just double click.
So I open a xterm window do the following statement.
'sudo gainroot'
#sudo ./example_file_chooser
But there is nothing happened. No application launched and no error message shows.
I don't know if I missed something needed on N900. Do I need to install anything on N900?
Basically, I following this post to compile my application. http://forums.internettablettalk.com...d.php?p=561391
Thanks for any advise.

Davenport Lyons Solicitors: The FULL SDT Hearing published
Well It has taken it's time, some say OVERTIME, but it is finally here.
The FULL hearing into Davenport Lyons Lawyers Dave Gore and Brian Miller.
(On Page 7 at 18 the cryptic letters are as follows …
Tw = Topware Interactive
Cm = Codemaasters
RP = Reality Pump
T = Techland
A = Atari
Dp = Digiprotect
Ls = Logistep)
I realise they may be seeking anonymity, but NONE of them have apologised for the pain they caused, so I think they are fair game.
It has come to my attention that this PDF is NOT searchable, so here is one that is. I must caution you however that this is an OCR Conversion and may contain grammatical innacuracies.
I would urge you to use this one for it's search capability and then compare the results with the original. Unlike those engaged in Speculative Invoicing, I like to be accurate… I hope you understand.
Here is the SEARCHABLE version

Davenport Whinings: Dont appeal, just apologise
As has been already reported this week, Davenport Lyons duo, Dave Gore and Brian Miller have been punished by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal. One would have thought that this would be an end to the saga, many thinking that they got off quite lightly with just a £20,000 fine and a suspension of a mere three Months.
Not good enough for Davenport Lyons though, they plan to appeal…. After wreaking havoc for two years on the General public before introducing us to ACS:LAW and Andrew Crossley. During their two year regime of Speculative Invoicing, they were featured on the BBC Watchdog Program incurred the wrath of Which Consumer Group and also Internet Forum Slyck and influential Blog TorrentFreak.
Why did they garner such attention? Well apart from the accusations of Old Age Pensioners sharing games and others some quite vile Pornography films :2:, the people of Britain realised that this was NOT the "Piracy Crusade", it was made out to be.
The Solicitors Regulation Authority investigated, (some say to slowly), and they found there was a case to answer, the Davenport Duo were hauled before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal in a hearing that lasted a whole week and were found guilty on SIX counts of violating the Solicitors Code of Conduct.
They have issued a response to the sanctions levelled at the two Solicitors involved:
'We consider the decision of the Solicitors' Disciplinary Tribunal and sanctions imposed against David Gore and former partner, Brian Miller, are totally unjustified.
Well see how foolish the opening line is? Unjustified? Davenport Lyons are a Firm of Solicitors regulated by the Soliciors Regulation Authority(SRA), they were investigated by the SRA and found wanting, FULLY JUSTIFIED.
'Davenport Lyons is a leading law firm with highly specialist intellectual property lawyers. We were instructed by the owners of intellectual property rights in music, film and games to help them curtail the significant losses they were suffering as a result of the unlawful file-sharing of their products.
As a "Leading law firm", they should have known better. Instructed by Owners of Intellectual property? Hmmm like maybe John Stagliano or maybe Digiprotect? . Hmmm Confusing I think as the SRA has stated, 'used their position as solicitors to take or attempt to take unfair advantage of other persons, being recipients of letters of claim, either for their own or for the benefit of their clients' speaks for itself.
The steps we took on behalf of our clients were for the protection of their legitimate legal rights. We consider that we acted in our clients' best interests at all times.
Well Digiprotect was one of your clients, and here goes: DigiProtect is acting on behalf of one of the biggest adult studios in the United States, Evil Angel, run by American porn mogul John Stagliano. When contacted, Mister Stagliano appeared to be unaware of the £500 DigiProtect is demanding from alleged file-sharers to settle out of court.
"It's not my understanding that they ask for anything near that. I think the amount was $50 (£34) or €50 (£43)," he said. "I would be very surprised and I wouldn't be happy because it would mean it was completely misrepresented to me."
Now what is Digiprotects Corporate Motto again…? Ahh yes "turn piracy into profit"
'We wholeheartedly support David and Brian's intention to appeal both the Solicitors' Disciplinary Tribunal's original decision and the resulting suspension and fine.'
I am sure you do, but as Michael Coyle of Lawdit said of you in the beginning…
"The cynical lawyer in me would say this is a money-making exercise. "If you send out 10,000 letters and ask for £500 each time, you only have to get half to pay up and you've made a significant amount of money. "Because it is porn, the person who's being accused won't want to go to court and is more likely to pay up to make the matter go away even if they are completely innocent."
And more interestingly this is what Judge Birss said of those who followed you in this "Speculative Invoicing" ACS:LAW
"Whether it was intended to or not, I cannot imagine a system better designed to create disincentives to test the issues in court," said the Judge. "Why take cases to court and test the assertions when one can just write more letters and collect payments from a proportion of the recipients?"
Why don't you just hold your hands up and say "We are sorry, we are sorry for the pain we have caused by our false accusations and the linking of innocent peoples name to such horrid vile pornography."
I will leave the last word to Andrew Crossley the Solicitor who you (According to the SRA) helped to set up and carry on the "work" you started.
"Davenport Lyons were a little bit rubbish at doing this work" and adds "….to arrogant"
Davenport Lyons Two Suspended for "Intimidation" :UPDATE 1
Dave Gore and Brian Miller have been suspended by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal for sending intimidating letters of claim to members of the general public that they accused of filesharing. *
Although Gore and Miller accused the people they sent letters to , they never gave them a chance to prove their innocence in Court, they relied on people not responding to their letters to get dubious "Default payments"
They had both been found in violation of SIX rules of the Solicitors Regualtion Authority
The Suspension willl be for three months and they will be fined £20,000.
The SDT said:
Their judgment became distorted and they pursued the scheme regardless of the impact on the people receiving the letters and even of their own clients.
In addition to the £20,000 fine, Miller and Gore were ordered to pay interim costs to the SRA of £150,000.
The SDT went on to say:
"Some of those affected were vulnerable members of the public. There was significant distress. We are pleased that this matter has been brought to a conclusion and hope that it serves as a warning to others.
"Solicitors have a duty to act with integrity, independence and in the best interests of their clients. Solicitors who breach those duties can expect to face action by the SRA."
The order has been suspended for 21 days to allow for appeals.
ACS:BORE opinion
Although this is a welcome development, it no way goes to be an adequate punishment for the pain caused. £20,000 fine would be easily miniscule to the profit that was made from people scared of legal letters and paying up to make the situation "Go away", Davenport like their successor ACS:LAW aimed the letter of claim at a cynical price of £500 – £750, the same cost to employ a lawer to fight the claim.
A Three month supension will allow them to be back in work for the New Year.
We look forward to seeing what the SDT does with the ACS:LAW/Andrew Crossley hearing later in the year, but after this rather dissapointing ruling we dont expect much.
*(For more on the background of Davenport Lyons "Letter of Claim" see the excellent Torrentfreak that broke the news way back in 2007)
**Davenport Lyons has issued a response to the SDT Findings.
"We were instructed by the owners of intellectual property rights in music, film and games to help them curtail the significant losses they were suffering as a result of the unlawful file-sharing of their products.
"The steps we took on behalf of our clients were for the protection of their legitimate legal rights. We consider that we acted in our clients' best interests at all times.
"We wholeheartedly support David and Brian's intention to appeal both the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal's original decision and the resulting suspension and fine."
Just a thought Davenport Lyons, when you are in a hole, STOP digging, you have been found guilty in the Court of Public Opinion a long time ago, and that could be easy to dismiss, however NOW you have been found guilty by you own regulatory body and their disciplinary body.
Accept you have done wrong and APOLOGISE for the pain you have caused.
You are going down the same road as Andrew Crossley and ACS:LAW by denying that you have done anything wrong. Last time we looked that path was not good…
ACS:LAW: The charge sheet from the SDT
The Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal has issued its "Charge Sheet" on ACS:LAW and it's Supremo Andrew Crossley.
The hearing will take place on
August 18th 2011 (The date of the hearing is yet to be set thanks to those eagle eyed readers who spotted the mistake.)
The allegations are or contain the following
1) Allowed his independence to be compromised
2) Acted contrary to the best interests of his clients
3) Acted in a way that was likely to diminish the trust the public places in him or in the legal profession
4) Entered into arrangements to receive contingency fees for work done in prosecuting or defending contentious proceedings before the Courts of England and Wales except as permitted by statute or the common law
5) Acted where there was a conflict of interest in circumstances not permitted, in particular because there was a conflict with those of his clients
6) Used his position as a Solicitor to take or attempt to take unfair advantage of other persons being recipients of letters of claim either for his own benefit or for the benefit of his clients.
7) Acted without integrity in that he provided false information in statements made to the Court.
We at ACS:BORE are pleased with these charges and think they largely cover what we and many others have been saying for the last two years. We look forward to seeing the hearing in practice and feel sure that these allegation whilst unproven at the moment, will be thoroughly pursued with the full weight of the law.
This is not the first time that Andrew Crossley has appeared, this will be his THIRD time. One has to ask how many times can a Solicitor be pulled in before the Disciplinary Tribunal and be allowed to continue. We look forward to August and hope it will be a FULL vindication for all those innocent people affected by the actions of ACS:LAW and their cohorts.
Many of those who engaged with ACS:LAW in bringing this misery to the general public will NOT be tried, but for those who follow this Blog, we at least know who they are.
Back in March 2010 I wrote an open letter to Mr Crossley after he accused me of posting messages attacking him, he is yet to respond.
Thanks to Enigmax!
Davenport Lyons Violated SIX rules of the Solicitors Code of Conduct
Davenport Lyons the originator of the odious "Speculative Invoicing" scheme, have been found guilty by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (SDT) of breaching SIX rules of the Solicitors Code of Conduct.
They were referred to the SDT by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, after a complaint by Which? and protests from many many innocent people who had received letters. , after a campaing of "Bullying" against Members of the general public.
The SDT met for a week and has now found that the SIX allegations against the two members of Davenport Lyons are proven and upheld. Brian Miller has since left the Law firm but Dave Gore is a Partner.
The SIX allegations of breaching the Solicitors Code of Conduct, now proven are as follows:
(1) Breach of rule 1.03 of the Solicitors Code of Conduct 2007: respondents allowed their independence to be compromised.
(2) Breach of rule 1.04: respondents did not act in the best interests of their clients.
(3) Breach of rule 1.06: respondents acted in a way that was likely to diminish the trust the public place in them or in the legal profession.
(4) Breach of rule 2.04(1): respondents entered into arrangements to receive contingency fees for work done in prosecuting or defending contentious proceedings before the courts of England and Wales except as permitted by statute or the common law.
(5) Breach of rule 3.01: respondents acted where there was a conflict of interest in circumstances not permitted under the rules, in particular because there was a conflict or significant risk that the respondents and/or their firm's interests were in conflict with those of their clients.
(6) Breach of rule 10.01: respondents used their position as solicitors to take or attempt to take unfair advantage of other persons, being recipients of letters of claim either for their own benefit or for the benefit of their clients.
It remains to be seen what sanctions will be imposed on the two.
The Firm that took up the "Speculative Invoicing" baton ACS:LAW and their Principal Andrew Crossley has also been referred to the SDT and will appear this October. Andrew Crossley has already slammed Davenport Lyons for being "rubbish" and "Arrogant" in the way they conducted their business.
The SRA said it "welcomes the decision of the SDT in this case brought for the protection of consumers".
Updates will follow…..
ACS:LAWs Andrew Crossley declared BANKRUPT – Davenport Lyons SDT hearing – Update 1
Andrew Crossley the Sole Trader of ACS:LAW has been declared bankrupt. After a near two year campaign falsely accusing members of the general public and having been lambasted by the House of Lords, the Main Stream Media and the Courts, and after he as a last gasp to claw more money attempted to launch a satellite company GCB LTD, he has now faced his financial ruin…. Or has he?
Although he has been declared officially bankrupt it seems he has lost none of his trappings of status. Of course as a bankrupt he can no longer practice as a Solicitor save with exception from the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), that seems unlikely as he is also facing his THIRD appearance before the SRAs Disciplinary Tribunal
As can be seen from the official notice however, the bankruptcy was petitioned for on the 22nd December 2010 by the HM Revenue & Customs. The letter sent from ACS:LAW regarding the handover of cases to GCB LTD (Which turned out to be run by ACS:LAW Employees) was dated 13th December 2010, draw from the timing what you will….
As write this I am awaiting the end of the Discliplinary Tribunal Hearing into Davenport Lyons the forerunner of ACS:LAWs business model… I will update later
UPDATE 1: The rather excellent Dina Greek who attended the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (SDT) Hearing today has said that the SDT has upheld ALL allegations against the Davenport Two, Dave Gore and Brian Miller. Their should be a write up in Computeractive Tomorrow.
The SRA had accused the two of "Knowingly targetted innocent web users without evidence" 2 It remains to be seen however why the SRA took so long to take action against ACS:LAW who they knew were running an identical operation.
But for many of us, we have finally seen some sort of Justice done.
Davenport Lyons and ACS:LAW together at last (almost) at the Disciplinary Tribunal
In a strange quirk of irony, the two biggest exponents of the "Speculative Invoicing" litigation, were in the same building, the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal, Davenport Lyons were their in the middle of their SEVEN days of hearings, and ACS:LAWs Andrew Crossley was there for a "Directions hearing"
It transpires that Andrew Crossley had requested a number of big asks of the Tribunal. A post from Will Gilmour who spent the day there states
It transpires that the application for directions was actually brought by him (rather than the SRA – the porsecution). He had a number of requests which he wanted the court to order. They were:
- He wanted SRA to fund his costs (as he's lacking finance and was afraid he'd suffer an 'inequality of arms' against the SRA's budget for his prosecution apparently set at £85k)
- He wanted to exclude all expert evidence, again on the grounds of expense
- He wanted an order to prevent the SRA making any further requests for disclosure of documents from him
- He wanted copies of all of the files concerned with the current Davenport Lyons (Gore / Miller) tribunal and…
- …a delay on proceedings on his case at least until the DL tribunal is concluded.
Wills post continues
As to the outcomes of Crossley's five applications for directions: every single one was refused. No SRA funding, no exclusion of expert testimony, the SRA are free to request disclosure of further documents from him, he can't have the Gore/Miller documents and there can be no unwarranted delay just because the Gore/Miller case is ongoing.
I would urge all my readers to go and view his EXCELLENT post on this whole subject. It covers concerns over the "Expert" Testimony of the defence and prosecution teams and casts a dim view over the ability of the SDT to actually regulate Solicitors. I am sure those of you who read the post will be quite astonished at the naivity of these people.

Fobbed off by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) – Incompetence abounds
I sent the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) an email regarding their investigation into the ACS:LAW Data Leak.
The email contained a few simple questions.
1: Why is ACS:LAW/Andrew Crossley still registered at 20 Hanover Sq London as a Data Controller.
2: Do you think it is appropriate to offer Mr Crossley a 20% for early payment of his fine?
3: Do you think that Mr Crossley may have been in a better position to pay his fine had the ICO not taken so long to conclude it's investigation?
The reply I got from the ICO after 14 days was this.
An obvious template response, I even got the ICO's ACS:LAW FACT SHEET. And (wait for it) How to get compensation from ACS:LAW!!! (See Below)
Well of course my thinking was that if the ICO thought that it was only worth under 20p for everyone who has had their details leaked then imagine the Compo I would get from ACS:LAW I mean I might even get a penny a WHOLE Penny. Wow well it truly has got me thinking until of course I realised that even the cheapest postal stamp (36p) would be many times my compensation, and incidentally more than the ICO fined ACS:LAW per individual.
There has been talk by Christopher Graham the head of the ICO that he would have liked to have fined ACS:LAW £200,000 but of course that was proven to be merely a dose of hot air. (See question 2)
Mr Graham in fact has been in the news a few times since regarding other "Data protection issues" and again appears to be a mighty knight roaring about the rights and wrongs of the issue and how people should protect data, but he wields a foam sword.1 2
Maybe it is not his fault, maybe the ICO is handcuffed by legislation as Mr Graham seems to believe. One thing is sure, I and many others have been through too much disruption in our lives to leave this alone now, we have invested the most precious of commodities know to humans, that of TIME, we did not ask Mr Crossley and his ACS:LAW "clown asses" to invade our lives with their preposterous allegations.
A investigation into ACS:LAW by PCPRO this week was revealing and showed how Andrew Crossley had shown the ICO to be mugs. An ICO spokesperson had told ZDNET "The £1,000 reflects his financial condition. He did drive a Bentley at one point, but he doesn't now." Well guess what PCPRO saw when they turned up at Crossley house? The Bentley still on his drive.
We are now over two years into this now and those accused by Davenport Lyons into their third year. This whole situation has been a travesty of Justice, where the bad guys have been allowed to accuse thousands, leak their details and remain in a good position when they should be skulking back to the rock they crawled from.
There is still light though, on Tuesday this week (31st May) Dave Gore and Brian Miller the two Solicitors accused by the Solicitors Regulation Authority(SRA) will stand before their Disciplinary board (SDT) to answer for their actions in pursuing people they KNEW to be innocent. Andrew Crossleys date is also coming soon. There is real hope that partial justice may be done to these people.
It remains to be seen wether the SRA will act in a proper way and not in the way that the ICO has acted like a "Toothless Tiger"
ACS:LAW – A Brief History of Speculative Invoicing
The hearing regarding ACS:LAW and Media C.A.T has now been well covered. My own personal favourite moments from Judge Birss are at the foot of this article.
The reason for this post though is that it seems we have forgotten those OTHER people involved with all this over the last THREE years now.
I would like to show those who are only just reading up about all this, the bigger picture.
Davenport Lyons were the original Law firm (2007), who gave over a lot of their material and clients, to ACS:LAW (May 2009) including a number of the paralegals, amongst them Terence Tsang. Davenport Lyons were investigated by the SRA (Solicitors Regulation Authority) and referred to the SDT (Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal) [2] [3]
ACS:LAW represented Games, Music and Pornographic films, and started sending letters out "en masse"
Tilly Bailey Irvine were up next (January 2010) and for a few months sent out letters defending Pornographic films, Although the films were legal in the sense they were certificated, the actual names of these films were VERY provocative and one could only imagine the distress caused to the Wife or indeed Husband who opened one of those letters.
Tilly Bailey Irvine withdrew citing "Adverse publicity" (April 2010) [2] not before being condemned in the House of Lords as "Latest entrants to the hall of infamy" and "An embarrassment to the creative industries" and also being accused by Wikipedia of "Vandalising" their entry.
In a wider attack by the Lords during the Digital Economy Bill, the actions of these "Piracy Chasers" was condemned as "Blackmail and a Scam"
Gallant Macmillan entered the fray defending The Ministry of Sound in July 2010. With the online community outraged at yet another "Speculative invoice" entering the scene, letters started being sent to the Chief Master who issued the NPO's that forced ISP's to hand over details of their subscribers.
The "Anonymous DDos attacks on ACS:LAW brought down their website in September 2010 and then ACS:LAW accidently released a HUGE email archive online which was quickly snatched and posted to torrent sites, The contents of the emails were explosive.
The huge data leak gave added impetus to the Courts handing out the NPOs and a hearing was adjourned [2]. When it was reconvened BT/Plusnet refused to hand over their subscribers data and then it was learnt that BT had destroyed the records it held for Gallant Macmillan. Gallant Macmilan were subject to DDos attacks.
Gallant Macmillan withdrew after BT destroyed the data they requested after a delay in obtaining a "norwich pharmacal" order, they deemed they could not make enough money out of the scheme to make it worth their while.
ACS:LAW just kept ploughing on though, using Logistep first as a "Data monitor" then Digiprotect, and then an obscure firm called NG3Systems.
After the DDos attack that destroyed their web presence it was thought that that would be the end of them. They continued issuing letters however with Media C.A.T who represented Pornographers Sheptonhurst amongst others. ACS:LAW were investigated by the SRA (Solicitors Regulation Authority) and referred to the SDT (Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal)
Forced into a corner of "put up or shut up" after claims he would never take a case to court, Crossley attempted a Court hearing against some recipients who had NOT responded, what is known as a "Default Judgement" It failed on an epic scale.
Some of those accused actually sent in a response and a defence and the hearing ended in disarray as the Judge ordered a search for all other cases on the Court system. He found 27 of them and arranged for a Court hearing to work out what direction should be taken.
With the Community totally focused against them and watching every move they made, it became clear that ACS:LAW/Media C.A.T were desperate, to drop all the cases. The Judge refused adjourned the hearing and set a new date for January 2011 [2]
A new letter went out from a company called GCB Ltd, the community smelt a rat and rightly so. According to the Judge it was an attempt by Crossley and Bowden to get the last bits of money they could.
For the rest read the judgment online. My favourite parts are below, and show what we knew all along, it was a Scam of epic proportions.
Media CAT and ACS:Law have a very real interest in avoiding public scrutiny of the cause of action because in parallel to the 26 court cases, a wholesale letter writing campaign is being conducted from which revenues are being generated. This letter writing exercise is founded on the threat of legal proceedings such as the claims before this court.
The information annexed to Mr Batstone's letter refers to ACS:Law having "recovered" £1 Million. Whether that was right and even if so whether it was solely in relation to Media CAT or other file sharing cases I do not know. Simple arithmetic shows that the sums involved in the Media CAT exercise must be considerable. 10,000 letters for Media CAT claiming £495 each would still generate about £1 Million if 80% of the recipients refused to pay and only the 20% remainder did so. Note that ACS:Law's interest is specifically mentioned in the previous paragraph because of course they receive 65% of the revenues from the letter writing exercise. In fact Media CAT's financial interest is actually much less than that of ACS:Law. Whether it was intended to or not, I cannot imagine a system better designed to create disincentives to test the issues in court. Why take cases to court and test the assertions when one can just write more letters and collect payments from a proportion of the recipients?
Friday 09 April 2010 by Andrew J Crossley (My clients are pleased with the service I provide. I have conducted file sharing-related work for 11 months; to date I have recovered close to £1m for my clients.)
The GCB episode is damning in my judgment. This shows that Media CAT is a party who, while coming to court to discontinue, is at the very same time trying to ram home claims formulated on exactly the same basis away from the gaze of the court. That will not do. I find that these notices of discontinuance are indeed an abuse of the court's process. The advantage of discontinuing as opposed to applying to amend is unwarranted in that it avoids judicial scrutiny of the underlying basis for wider campaign orchestrated by Media CAT and ACS:Law to generate revenue under the various agreements such as the Sheptonhurst agreement.
One might think a claimant (and their legal adviser) who was giving their claim serious further consideration before perhaps starting it afresh in a different form or dropping it altogether, would certainly not assert the very same claim against other people not (yet) before the court. The GCB episode shows that Mr Crossley's client had every intention of doing precisely that and that ACS:Law were perfectly well aware of it. It is very difficult not to draw the inference that this was nothing more than a last ditch attempt to make some money from the letter writing exercise.
And maybe the most damning part with implications for the Digital Economy Bill, that an IP address alone; "cannot and does not purport to identify the individual who actually did anything."
Just listened to the "BBC RADIO 5 Investigates" Program Good effort on their part. 30 minutes dedicated to this issue.

RALEIGH, NC (WECT) – Representatives Susi Hamilton (D-New
Hanover) and Ted Davis, Jr. (R-New Hanover) are primary sponsors of a bill to
toughen penalties for people convicted of human trafficking in North Carolina.
HB 221 also requires convicted offenders to register under North Carolina's Sex
Offender registry.
Rep. Hamilton filed the bill Wednesday in the state
House. It raises the penalty for
convictions, taking the offense from a Class "F" felony to a Class "E" felony
if the victim is an adult, and to a Class "C" felony if the victim is a minor.
The bill also repeals a provision in the current law that gives the court
discretion to require a convicted offender to register as a sex offender.
Click here to read the entire text of HB 221. If it is
passed, it would take effect December 1, 2013.
"This bi-partisan legislation should serve as notice that
human trafficking is a serious crime, and that all perpetrators will be
punished to the fullest extent of the law," Rep. Hamilton said in an email news

January 28, 2013: Today CRE launched a multi-state pilot study of the Comprehensive Intervention Model (CIM). The purpose of the study is to document how CIM helps educators meet the needs of children who are struggling to learn to read. The CIM system is uniquely designed to provide educators with real-time data about the progress of their students, and inform instructional decision-making within an RTI framework. The study expands the on-going CIMME project in Maine to include eight other states: Arkansas, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, Tennessee, Washington, and Wisconsin.
This study is a collaborative effort between the University of Maine and four other University Training Centers, including the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, National-Louis University, the University of Kentucky, and the University of Northern Iowa.

---- — SEABROOK — The process of dredging as much as 120,000 cubic yards of sand from the bottom of Hampton Harbor onto Seabrook beaches has begun; and if all goes well, it could be completed by the end of the year, according to Army Corps of Engineers officials.
Project manager Richard Heidebrecht said a total of 150,000 to 170,000 cubic yards of sand will be scooped up by a hydraulic dredge during that time with the majority of sand heading for Seabrook beaches via 8,000 feet of pipe. The remaining 50,000 cubic yards will be used to replenish sand on Hampton Beach.
The method is similar to the type used by the Army Corps of Engineers in 2010 at the mouth of the Merrimack River. In that operation, sand was dredged from the river mouth in order to deepen the channel. It was pumped onto Plum Island and Salisbury Beach. Both areas had suffered significant erosion and the sand was used to literally reshape the beaches.
As was the case with the Merrimack River dredging in 2010, the main goal of the Hampton dredging project is to deepen Hampton Harbor, which sometimes can be as shallow as 2 or 3 feet deep during low tide. Such a shallow harbor has stranded many fishing, pleasure and ice-hauling boats over the years.
Once the dredging project is completed, it is estimated Hampton Harbor will be 8 feet deep at low tide, according to Heidebrecht. Hampton Harbor is located about five miles north of Newburyport Harbor.
The Seabrook side of the harbor is expected to be completed first before work shifts to the Hampton side. Once the sand is pumped onto the beaches, it will be graded to create a gradual slope. The project also calls for snowfencing to be erected along 800 feet of Seabrook Beach, in an effort to protect piping plover habitat.
"It helps nourish the coastal system, so that's why we're putting it on the beach," Heidebrecht said.
The Hampton Harbor project will cost $3.16 million, while the smaller Merrimack River project cost $5.5 million. The projects have different contractors — Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Co. of Oak Brook, Ill., won the bid on the Merrimack River project, after the Army Corps was forced to delay the process and revise the project scope due to changes in the erosion patterns on the beach. The Hampton Harbor project is under the direction of Southwind Construction Corp., with financial assistance from the Pease Development Authority.
Also, bids for the Plum Island project came in above the initial projected cost of about $3.6 million, which forced the Army Corps to extend the bidding process and seek more funds.
Engineers had hoped to begin the dredging project earlier, but thanks to Hurricane Sandy and a nor'easter that followed Sandy days later, dredging was pushed back a few days, according to Army Corps officials.
"There was a lot of wave action that delayed the start for a little bit," Heidebrecht said.

Sparks, Nev. (AP) — Police say two people are dead and two more are injured in a shooting at Sparks Middle School in northern Nevada Monday morning.
Washoe County School District Police didn't immediately offer details of the identities of the dead. They said the school is "all clear" and the suspect is "down," but offered no further details.
Spokeswoman Angela Rambo of Renown Regional Medical Center says two boys are in critical condition.
Washoe County School District spokesman Charles Rahn says the middle school and next door Agnes Risley Elementary School have been evacuated to Sparks High School. Rahn said the middle and elementary schools will be closed Monday.
Sparks is a city just east of Reno.

HARRISBURG—Illegal immigration is a hot topic around the country and now in Pennsylvania. State Representative Daryl Metcalfe unveiled a proposed law that would toughen the state's stance on illegal aliens.
If the Republican legsilator from Butler County gets his way, Pennsylvania police officers will have full authority to apprehend illegal aliens. He says, dealing with the problem is a multi-million dollar issue and one that needs to be addressed.
An Arizona law passed last week has sparked national controversy. The law calls for all foreign nationals to carry some sort of paperwork proving they are in the country legally. It also gives police officers the right to check anyone that looks "reasonably suspicious" and make them provide documentation or face a misdemeanor.
Metcalfe says his legislation resembles the Arizona law. He claims there are 140,000 illegal aliens in this state. He wants to strengthen the laws and save taxpayers some big bucks.
"It's estimated we're spending over $700 million a year in Pennsylvania on illegal aliens for health care, education and incarceration costs," said Metcalfe.
Metcalfe is getting support from several groups including F.A.I.R., the Federation for American Immigration Reform and Citizens for Immigration Control. Other state lawmakers are also throwing their support behind Metcalfe's bill. Lancaster Republican Representative Tom Creighton and Cumberland/York Republican Representative Scott Perry also support the measure.

CHAMPLAIN — When Dr. John Southwick was growing up, Village of Champlain's downtown had three grocery stores, two clothing stores, two hardware stores, two restaurants, a furniture store and a post office.
"I've witnessed, for what it's worth, the whole destruction of the Village of Champlain," said Southwick, who is 80 and has lived in the municipality for 65 years.
Even so, he wants more information before he decides whether it makes sense to dissolve village government.
So, he will vote "yes" at the referendum on the issue on March 19.
If the majority does so, the Village Board will be obligated to conduct a study that would detail how dissolution would occur, with the Town of Champlain assuming governance.
"Both the town and the village have to sit down during the dissolution study and talk about these things and what will work for both entities," Mayor Greg Martin said.
After the plan driven by that study is complete, villagers can petition for another public vote on the issue. If that doesn't happen, village government would disappear.
Residents are torn about the fate of their village.
"I'm kind of teetering," said Patricia Gladd, 61.
The village is visibly deteriorating, she said.
"It's really depressing."
The village is typical of many — most of its retail moved from downtown or established itself on busier Route 11, many stores are located in the strip mall anchored by Price Chopper.
Downtown fell victim, too, to flooding caused by ice jams on the Great Chazy River; some years ago, a federal buyout eliminated numerous homes and buildings that had one time made up a bustling area.
Village-run services that have been eliminated over the years include the police department and court.
"Little by little, the ability to pay for necessities is diminishing. And what's remaining is the water and sewer plant," said Kevin Triller, who heads the dissolution effort.

Tom Brady proved that a swollen hand and offensive line troubles weren't enough to prevent him from winning as the New England Patriots mounted a second half comeback to defeat the Miami Dolphins, 27-17.
Brady struggled in the first half as the Patriots quarterback didn't look comfortable under center. Entering the half, he had thrown for less than 50 yards as well as a costly interception. Everything started to click as they returned in the second half at home. The Patriots scored 24 unanswered points, including two rushing touchdowns that took the pressure off Brady on a day he needed help.
Ryan Tannehill had a mixed performance. At times he looked like the hostile road environment wasn't too much for him, but he struggled to throw accurately on deep routes throughout the day, finishing with 192 passing yards on 42 attempts.
A silver lining for the Dolphins will be its running game, which finally found its footing in Foxboro. Lamar Miller and Daniel Thomas combined for 136 rushing yards, both averaging over 4.5 yards per carry. This wasn't enough to turn the game around, as Miami was unable to find the end zone.
Injury report
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Gibson left Sunday's game with a knee injury. He was taken to the locker room on a cart, and did not return.
Sebastian Vollmer suffered a bad injury in the first half and left the field in an air cast.
Fantasy studs and duds
Tom Brady did what it took to win the game, but was not an impact player in fantasy leagues as he finished with 116 yards and a touchdown.
Mike Wallace managed just 41 yards receiving on three catches.
Did they cover?
The New England Patriots were six-point favorites, according to OddsShark. They covered with a 10-point win.

Law Firms
KC Firm in Merger Talks, Expanding to Chicago
Posted Nov 27, 2007 4:50 PM CDT
By Molly McDonough
A midsize Kansas City firm in the midst of merger talks isn't waiting for that deal to expand.
Blackwell Sanders already dispatched the former head of its London office to recruit and kick-start a shop in Chicago, the Kansas City Star reports.
Partner John Mandelbaum has moved to Chicago and will be one of the resident partners there, the firm's chairman Dave Fenley is quoted saying. Blackwell Sanders has nine offices in Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Illinois, Washington, D.C. and London.
Meanwhile, Blackwell Sanders remains in merger talks with Husch & Eppenberger, a St. Louis-based firm with offices in Missouri, Tennessee and Illinois.
A combined firm would be 630 lawyers strong with annual revenues of $255 million, the Star reports.

With 27 seniors, experience should not be a problem for the Northwood Falcons. It's the expectations that might do them in.
"You've got to get lucky too," said Jim Gatlin, head coach at Southwood. "We've got to stay away from injuries. We've got to have a good attitude. So far that's happened."
With the exception of one offensive lineman out to injury, the Falcons have 19 returning starters from a squad that went deep in the playoffs.
"Practice goes a little easier with those guys that have the experience," said Gatlin. "You're not, you'd spend time with some of the younger ones but it is nice to have the quarterback that we have and the set of receivers that we have. That's definitely going to be our strong point.
"it's a coaches dream but it could be a nightmare if it doesn't go right."
With new additionis to the 4A district this season, the goal of an outright district title has become more of a challenge.
"You throw in the Huntington's, the Woodlawn's, the Fair Parks and now you throw in the N. Desoto's and Loyola's who are used to winning. It's all about who plays the best on Fridays."

We were pleased with the Price and the location for what we had in mind. We had a great time in the area. We would not have taken a vacation this 4th of July if it hadn't been for this nicely priced and clean motel -
There were a few spider webs on the railings of the stairs. It would have been nice if we could have checked in before 4:00, but the manager advised that they had been short handed recently.It was Clean, neat with comfortable beds & pillows. We had good phone service reception in the room as well. Nothing fancy but we will be back. We Don't want to recommend this Motel because we don't want anyone else finding out about it

From the moment I booked the room on line this place was a great experience! I called right after I booked it and spoke to a lady named Katie. She confirmed my reservation and was very friendly and helpful with all of my questions. We didn't arrive til later in the night on a Friday night and was greeted warmly by Kevin at the front desk and another young lady. I'm not sure of her name. After we arrived in the room, I realized I forgot my toothbrush and called to ask Kevin if they had any disposables. He offered to bring them to the room, which was very nice because we were exhausted from the drive. The room was very clean and beautiful inside. We stayed in a double queen room with a view from the back of the Inn of the lake. Can't say enough great things about this facility!
Okay 5.0
1. Bed was not made 2. Coffee, Sugar etc where not refilled 3. AC was not functioning properly.We stayed there for 2 days, and the hotel was much below of our expectation for the given price.

Clean! The bedding even had a slight bleach smell to it, not overwhelming but you knew you were laying on laundered sheets; huge plus in my book.
It was near NOTHING but a gas station; wish I had known that before stopping for the night, but had a pizza place that delivered. Could hear everything going on in the hallway.Smallish rooms packed with everything you would need; cosy.

It was available and close to the freeway

King sized bed, but small room, pool area uninviting, no hot tub. Felt like it was overpriced.

Quiet, strategically located with respect to a number of skiing places. The staff is friendly and forthcoming.
The furniture and carpets are old. I did not risk to walk barefooted and sitting on a chair without putting a towel beneath. The chairs emit a stale smell. Since there is no way to let fresh air into the room, the situation may be uncomfortable.I guess that it is time to replace carpets and furniture. I stayed three times in this hotel (mainly for winter vacations), and I like it. And I will come again.

Spam prevention requires preventing open relaying through email servers. However, legit users want to be able to relay. If legit users always stayed in one spot, they'd be easy to describe to the daemon. However, what with roving laptops, logins from home, etc., legit users refuse to stay in one spot. pop-before-smtp watches the mail log, looking for successful pop/imap logins, and posts the originating IP address into a database which can be checked by Postfix, to allow relaying for people who have recently downloaded their email.

Two Simpson County inmates who walked off a work detail site Monday morning have been recaptured.
According to the Simpson County Sheriff's Office, the two inmates who walked off a work detail crew were captured around 7:30 p.m. Monday evening without incident in Simpson County.
According to Simpson County Sheriff Kenneth Lewis, Simpson County Adult Detention Center inmates Patrick McMillan, 24, and Billy Jo Gunter, 32, walked off a work detail crew on Highway 541 North near the Rankin County line at approximately 7:28 a.m. Monday.
Both men are county inmates and were originally incarcerated on misdemeanor charges including old fines and failure to pay child support.
Simpson County Sheriff's Office officials say the tracking dogs used in the search lost the scent of the two inmates near the Simpson-Rankin County line on Highway 541 Monday afternoon before they were discovered later that evening.

Bail extended for police officer in Hampshire Constabulary corruption probe
10:35am Tuesday 27th November 2012 in Crime By Jenny Makin, Deputy News Editor
A FEMALE Hampshire cop has had her bail extended as police continue investigating her alleged corruption.
The 28-year-old from Southampton was one of two serving officers who were arrested amid claims they had carried out misconduct in a public office.
The officer, who has not been named, was also being quizzed on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of class a drugs and perverting the course of justice.
She was due to answer bail today but has been told no decision will be made.
Police this morning confirmed the second officer, who is 29 and also serves in the city, had been told no further action would be taken against her as far as criminal proceedings were concerned. She is however back at work on directed duties while internal action is taken against both.
As reported by the Daily Echo, the pair were among six people arrested by police during dawn raids at properties in Southampton in October. They took place in Thornbury Avenue, Shirley, King Edward Avenue in Regents Park, Derby Road and Wyndham Court in the city centre.
Four men aged 22, 26, 28 and 32 were also held on suspicion of conspiring to pervert the course of justice.
They have been bailed until January 11.
The investigation has also been referred to the Independent Police Complaints Comission.

New website, How much money would i have made??
Hello all,
Just had a quick question, launched my site a few weeks ago and have had a good view hits about 3000, in 2 weeks since it launched. Along with this I have had about 53000 page view!!! Was quite amazed at this figure
The site is Watch This Cam - Chat and watch the world
My question is what would be the best advertising methods for my website would you guys recommend CPM or CPC?
I was thinking about just placing a sky-scrapper banner along the side of every cam?
What would be the general CPM for one of these?
Or how much would I have made from 53000 page views?
Its my first proper website that I have made and am quite new to advertising especially on websites.
Also if you are checking out the site id advise doing so in Firefox or chrome.
Thanks all

Typical rates from slapping an easy ad network like AdSense on a site are somewhere around 0.10 - 0.50 per 1000 pageviews, so in this case something like $5 - $25.
Possibly much more from a well-targeted affiliate offer, selling memberships to your users or doing direct ad sales.

I think finding a pay per click program for this site would be better. There are several to choose from. I think there is a link to ad programs in a sticky on this forum.

Go first with adsense ... see how much you make. If you don't like the revenue go to affiliate networks and place links to buy things related to your content.
You can do both of them in the same time.
Apr 4, 2011, 12:20 #5
Definitely give AdSense a shot and see what kind of traction you get. Once you start receiving more traffic, maybe provide a pop-up/splash banner or content unlocker for "premium" cams (i.e. your most popular cams). Affiliate offers would be a good route as well.
Jun 15, 2011, 04:10 #6
You could combine adsense with relevant on page content, title, tags.
Adsense gives contextual ads, so if users watch a webcam from Barcelona they could receive travel ads and flights to Barcelona, which could convert to clicks and income.VideoWhisper Video Communications Software
