As newspapers across the country struggle with declining readership and advertising revenue, executives of Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. have been meeting in recent weeks with publishers about forming a consortium that would charge for news distributed online and on portable devices — and which Murdoch thinks could potentially stem the rising tide of red ink. Chief Digital Officer Jonathan Miller has positioned News Corp. as a logical leader in the effort to start collecting fees from online readers because of its success with the Wall Street Journal Online, which boasts more than 1 million paying subscribers. He is believed to have met with major news publishers including New York Times Co., Washington Post Co., Hearst Corp. and Tribune Co. (Los Angeles Times)

Media Briefing for Thursday, July 23, 2009
From the 1941 issue of Broadcasting Yearbook, page 312:
"CBS has no thought of setting itself up as an arbiter of what is proper for the children to hear; but it does have an editorial responsibility to the community, in the interpretation of public wish and sentiment, which cannot be waived. In accordance with this responsibility CBS lists some specific themes and dramatic treatments which are not to be permitted in broadcasts for the children:
- Respect for parents and proper legitimate authority
- The exalting as modern heroes of gangsters, criminals and racketeers will not be allowed
- Cruelty, greed and selfishness must not be presented as worthy motivations – Programs that arouse harmful nervous reactions in the child must not be presented – Conceit, smugness, or an unwarranted sense of superiority over others less fortunate may not be presented as laudable
- Recklessness and abandon must not be falsely identified with a healthy spirit of adventure
- Unfair exploitation of others for personal gain must not be made praiseworthy
- Dishonesty and deceit are not to be made appealing or attractive to the child."
The V-chip and other technology to help parents monitor their children's media consumption is a better option than new government rules, according to new FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski. "We need a landscape that respects and honors the First Amendment," he said. "These are issues people have been fighting over for a while. (The Wrap)

There is one teeny tiny aspect of it that i would like to expound on, and have decided to start a new thread to do it.
The name basically says it all, in your games, how do you dictate alignment?
Do actions speak louder than words?
Or does it all come down to the reasons they do what they do?
Is it some combination? If so, which weighs more heavily?
Essentially, i'm looking to collect as many opinions as possible (i'd do a poll if i could) so feel free to give a relatively short answer with an explanation.
Also, i expect there to be some explanation and discussion, but please keep it friendly. Remember, the main goal here is to see how other people view this aspect of the game, not to criticise it (for better or for worse).

Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- It was called the "Road to Majority" conference, a not-so-subtle reference to winning control of Capitol Hill in the 2014 midterm elections. Some of the biggest names in the Republican Party -- several potential presidential candidates among them -- offered plans to strengthen the GOP. Breakout sessions included tips on "winning the hearts and minds of young people" and harnessing new technology to win elections.
The political overtones of last week's Faith and Freedom Coalition conference were striking. But organizers insist the event was not focused on politics and say they're not violating laws that prevent tax-exempt groups like theirs, classified as "social welfare" organizations under the tax code, from engaging in direct or indirect political campaigning.
As Congress probes the Internal Revenue Service's targeting of conservative groups, last week's conference at a downtown Washington hotel provided an example of the murky rules and lax enforcement surrounding the expanding network of big-budget nonprofit groups actively working to influence politics and policy.
Such organizations fueled an unprecedented expansion of spending in American politics last fall, using their tax status to hide donors' identities and avoid donation limits while investing more than a quarter of a billion dollars in television advertising, mailings and ground support to help influence elections nationwide.
They're gearing up to play even bigger roles in next year's midterm elections, with huge implications for the balance of power in Congress and President Barack Obama's second-term agenda. Their chief overseer, the IRS, is distracted by a criminal investigation after acknowledging that some of its officials inappropriately scrutinized conservative organizations.
"It's Christmas in June" for nonprofit groups looking to abuse the tax code for political gain, says Marcus Owens, a former director of the IRS' tax-exempt unit. He says the tax enforcement agency is virtually paralyzed while the probe is going on. That leaves the most powerful groups, like the Faith and Freedom Coalition, with little guidance on how to balance political activity, and little disincentive to bend or break the rules.
Owens said the Faith and Freedom Coalition likely "has a tax problem" but organizers "have nothing to fear from the IRS" because it's bogged down by congressional and Justice Department investigations.
The Georgia-based Faith and Freedom Coalition, focused largely on promoting Christian values, is among a growing class of politically active groups -- largely on the conservative side -- operating in a campaign finance system given free rein by a 2010 Supreme Court ruling that opened the floodgates for political money. But politically active nonprofits have been pushing the limits of tax laws for years.
Evangelical leader Ralph Reed founded the Faith and Freedom Coalition in 2009, building on experience as the director of another nonprofit group, the Christian Coalition. The IRS denied that organization's tax-exempt status in 1998, concluding that some of its activities were too partisan. That ruling helped contribute to the once-powerful group's fall from prominence.
Faith and Freedom executive director Gary Marx says his group did not have problems obtaining tax-exempt status in 2009, although some of its smaller state-based affiliates appear to have been caught in the IRS' special focus on conservative groups.
That's in line what organizations across the country call a pattern at the IRS: scrutiny for smaller conservative groups, often delaying their tax-exempt applications for more than a year, but a hands-off policy with the larger, most influential organizations.
The Faith and Freedom Coalition is among those large groups, with reported revenues of $5.5 million in 2010 and $3.4 million in 2011, the most recent tax filing publicly available. In that document, the organization describes its mission as being "committed to educating and informing people at the grassroots level about timely public policy issues and encourage them to participate in the legislative process."
Reed, chairman of the Faith and Freedom Coalition, portrayed a sharply more political mission in the conference program.
"We are building a permanent pro-family, conservative majority, not just in both house of Congress, but in every state house, school board, and city council across the country," he wrote in a message to participants. "The 'Road to Majority' conference is an essential training and equipping weekend to help you stop the radical Obama agenda, advance conservative legislation, and prepare for the 2013-2014 elections."
Asked about the conference's apparent political focus, Marx said there was a "clear public policy" component to the conference, particularly its "lobby day," in which participants traveled to Capitol Hill to discuss immigration, health care and even the regulation of nonprofits with elected officials.

Disruptive Technology
By removing familiar, time-honored manufacturing constraints, 3D printing sets the stage for "a cascade of downstream innovation." In their book, Fabricated: The New World of 3D Printing, Hod Lipson and Melba Kurman explore how 3D printing technologies will change the ways we work, eat, heal, learn, create and play.
According to Lipson and Kurman, 3D printing technologies "ease the tyranny of economies of scale" due to a number of principles that they lay out in today's lesson. These principles, the authors argue, are either true today, or will be true in the coming decades.

The Golden Gophers had an outstanding season but instead of going to a more prominent bowl, they find themselves back in the Texas bowl for the second time in as many seasons. Syracuse is lucky to make this appearance they managed to just get six victories on the season.
Texas Bowl: Syracuse vs. Minnesota Preview
The college football bowl odds for this game opened up with the Golden Gophers listed as (-5) point favorites. The betting public realizes how good of a season that Minnesota had and over 78 percent have responded by wagering on Minnesota to win and cover the Texas bowl. Although the Orange is not getting respect by the college football betting masses, the line has still moved in their direction. The latest point spread on the Texas Bowl can now be found at (-4) at several of the top rated online sportsbooks.
The Minnesota offense is a grind it out offense that can beat down defenses. Minnesota uses two quarterbacks, Philip Nelson and Mitch Leidner, and the duo has combined for more rushing touchdowns at 13 than passing scores at 10, which makes the Golden Gophers a rushing team. They also have some positive betting angles in their favor for this game. The Golden Gophers are 6-0 against the spread (ATS) in their last 6 games after allowing less than 170 yards passing in their previous game, 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games after accumulating less than 170 yards passing in their previous game and 7-1 ATS in their last 8 non-conference games.
The Orange needed a come from behind win in the last game to become bowl eligible and they are led by the increasingly hit play of quarterback Terrel Hunt. Hunt has thrown three touchdowns over the last two games after not throwing for any scores, while throwing seven interceptions, over the previous six contests. They are not winning often but they have been money makers against the number this season. The Orange are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 non-conference games, 4-0 ATS in their last 4 neutral site games and 11-5 ATS in their last 16 games overall. The Orange will give it their all in this bowl game.
Texas Bowl: Syracuse vs. Minnesota Pick
The Golden Gophers won't admit it, but they are not happy to be here. They expected a much better bowl after the great season they had and that will make for a dull trip for the returning players. Syracuse is just happy to be in any bowl game and are still riding the high from their last game.
Syracuse +4

Book Description:New York Times bestselling author Lisa Gardner, whose first three novels rocketed onto national bestseller lists, is one of today's hottest suspense stars. Now, in her powerful hardcover debut, she takes us on a desperate manhunt for a sadistic killer who preys upon his victims' innermost fears — just before he claims their lives.What do you do when a killer targets the people you love most? How do you protect them when he knows their most secret fears and hidden desires? When he knows just when to strike? And, most of all, when he knows the same about you?These are the questions that haunt FBI Special Agent Pierce Quincy. The official police report concluded that his daughter's death was an accident. Amanda Quincy was driving drunk when her car careened out of control.Pierce knew about his daughter's problem with alcohol. He knew about her loneliness and insecurity. And so, he is certain, did the man who killed her. Quincy is prepared to risk everything to learn the dangerous truth about Amanda's death — and there's only one person willing to help.Rainie Conner knows all too well the dark side of the human heart. An ex-cop haunted by her own violent past, she had once been paired professionally — and personally — with the brilliant, supremely logical FBI profiler.Quincy had helped Rainie through the harrowing case that shattered her career and left her charged with first-degree murder. Now it's time for Rainie to return the favor.But this killer is like none these two hard-boiled pros have ever encountered. This twisted psychopath has an insatiable hunger for revenge ... and for fear. He isn't satisfied with taking his victims' lives. He wants to get inside their minds, strip them of every defense, render them powerless to resist.He's already killed twice; now he's taunting Quincy and Rainie by making it no secret who his next victim will be: Quincy's only surviving daughter.The killer's plan is chilling, brilliant, and unstoppable. The cops won't help; the FBI can't be trusted. As the clock ticks down to the final minutes of one unspeakably intimate act of vengeance, the only way Rainie can unmask this faceless killer is to step directly in his murderous path. She will become a murder waiting to happen. She will be ... the next accident.

Long-time Yorkton music fans are likely to recall the band Things Better Left Unsaid from the early 2000s.
Well two of the members of that one-time Yorkton band has been back in the studio.
Brothers Byron and Evan Chambers, now living in Regina, have a new band The Third Alarm, and a new disk.
Evan is the guitarist and vocalist, with brother Byron on bass, and Eric Mazden on drums.
"We've been together as a trio probably since about 2009," said Byron Chambers. "I guess you could say we technically started out as a 'covers-only' or 'jam band; where we would just play blues standards by Stevie Ray Vaughan and similar artists. We would just play a handful of gigs.
"As we started to feel more comfortable as a guitar-bass-drums-trio — because like I said, our previous band was a five-piece rock band with two guitars, bass, keyboard, and two vocalists — we started slowly writing our own material.
"Lots of those old songs have been long forgotten, but they were a necessary stepping stone to get to these songs that we ultimately put on the album."
Chambers said the new band is musically different for him.
"Very different," he said. "Our previous band was called Activate. We were a five-piece progressive rock/metal band with two guitars, bass, keyboard, and two vocalists. We were a very technically-driven type of band — lots of riffs, lots time signature changes and things like that. Much heavier and complex genre of music.
"But the strange thing is that metal has actually never been my (nor Evan, nor Eric's) first choice in music. Evan's favourite artists are guys like Joe Bonamassa and Derek Trucks. I've always been a big fan of bands like Rush and Pink Floyd. So has Eric."
The new disk is a first for The Third Alarm.
"This is our first album as a band," said Chambers. "The three of us have played in previous projects in the past such as a progressive rock/metal band called Activate. As Activate we began writing material for a second album, just prior to disbanding. The sound seemed to have a more bluesy vibe to it, so starting up a blues trio was certainly a natural transition for us."
In terms of sound Chambers said The Third Alarm seems to go back to one influence.
"The one artist we always seem to keep coming back to when we want to choose fun cover songs to play is Joe Bonamassa," he said. "He is, in my opinion, the perfect modern-blues artist. He started out as a pretty standard bluesy 'gun-slinger' but has progressed over many albums into a very artistic, well-produced artist with lots of depth to his music.
"I hate assembly-line music, and Bonamassa has managed to be a blues guitarist but still break way from the '12-bar-blues' that we've all heard enough of.
"Not that there hasn't been some great 12-bar-blues songs written in the past, but how many more of those songs do we really need?
"I know I got a little side-tracked here, but artists like him are definitely who we look up to. We want our albums to go more places than just the verse-chorus-verse-chorus-guitar solo-chorus-end structure."
Asked how long it took to get the music together for the new album, Chambers said that was not a timeframe easy to define.
"Tough question to answer," he said. "Like I said earlier, we've been writing this kind of music for about six-years, but we've cut a lot of songs over the years, and ultimately ended up with these 10 songs that we were proud of, and decided to make a record out of it."
The material was created as a collaborative effort.
"Absolutely a joint effort," offered Chambers. "We usually start with one little lick written by Evan, and we just get together and toss ideas back and forth. All of our songs go through many different 'versions' before we finally feel like we are happy with it, which is what I have always felt is where the best music comes from, — experimentation."
While recording is a unique experience to performing, it is also one Chambers totally embraces.
"I'm a recording engineer myself, so the recording process is when I really get excited," he said. "I have an extensive collection of microphones and recording equipment, so we decided to track the drums at our rehearsal space. It's a small dilapidated warehouse in Regina, far away from any residential area so we can play loud all hours of the night without disturbing anyone.
"We set up some acoustic treatments around the drum kit, and we just jammed. After the drums were laid down, we moved on to bass, then guitars, then vocals, pretty standard procedure.
"But after those are all done is when I feel like it's my time to start dissecting things.
"That's when I sit at my small home studio and start adding in extra bits of piano, organs, and other synth sounds that might help spice things up.
"A couple times I called Evan back to record some extra little guitar parts just for extra flavour.
"Additionally, I hired a very talented keyboard player from Regina named Jon Neher to take care of some of the more complicated organ parts. I can do basic keyboards, but I definitely needed someone like him to do the parts where the organ was the 'feature'."
Through the process the music took on a fresh fell.
"The songs absolutely evolved during the recording process," said Chambers. "For example, we were almost ready to completely scrap 'Home' before we played around with some extra bits of guitar, keyboard and vocals, and now it's one of my favourite tracks on the album."
As a result Chambers said 'Home' became his favourite cut on the CD.
"It was almost cut from the album, but I spent a lot of my own time experimenting with extra instrumentation and arrangement. I feel like I kind of saved that song," he said.
The Third Alarm CD is now one among several disks for Chambers, but it one he is very happy with.
"It's the first musical project I've ever been involved in that I am actually proud to give to my friends and family and brag that it's my own," he said. "Any other album I've played on has always had some very major flaws."
The disk, which was officially released at a party at The Exchange in Regina on Friday, May 16, is already getting some attention.
"As for a radio single, we haven't actually released a specific song at this point but most of the songs have been getting played at random on Redbeard's Blues on Regina's CJTR," said Chambers. "'Is it Love?' seems to be the one lots of people take a liking to. That will certainly be one of the ones we consider releasing as a single when we decide to do so."
CD's are available at Fuzztone Music in Yorkton. Vinyl is available thru the band members.

Though McDaniel is a liberal arts college, most students aren't required to take a literature class during their time on the Hill (though there is a component of the McDaniel Plan called "textual analysis," which can be fulfilled by taking a course in literature, philosophy, foreign language, history, or a bunch of other things). However, in my humble English major opinion, a literature class is a great thing to take while you're at McDaniel regardless of your major! You'll get to read some cool and thought-provoking books (or short stories or poems), you'll learn how to analyze and think critically about writing, and you'll be able to impress others in intellectual social settings with your knowledge of literature.
Now that I've told you some of the benefits of taking a lit class, let me tell you how to make taking such a class as affordable as possible by making sure you pay as little as possible for all the novels you'll need to buy!
Shop around in your own home.
Depending on what literature class you take, you might already own some of the books. Most professors don't care about what editions of the book you have, so if you already own the book, there's no sense in buying another copy, unless you really really like being able to have the same page numbers as most of your classmates. Check your own bookshelves, and ask your parents, friends, and relatives if they'd like to lend or give you the book you need. (But be sure to tell them upfront if you plan on writing in the book. Some people just don't want that.)
Try your e-reader.
If you're taking a lit class that focuses on novels that are at least 75-100 years old, many of the texts you need to get for class are in the public domain, meaning that in a digital format, you can get them for free. You need not have an e-reader to get access to them either; if they're free, you can probably find PDFs of them online or on Google Books. A word of advice though: if you like to heavily annotate your books, going digital might not be for you.
Compare prices on McDaniel's bookstore website and other sites.
McDaniel's bookstore is affiliated with Barnes and Noble. Like other colleges that partner up with B&N, there's a BN College website specifically for McDaniel where McDaniel students can buy and rent their books and pick them up directly in the campus bookstore. Usually when I give people advice on buying books, I tell them to use the site as a book list and buy their books elsewhere using cheapesttextbooks.com, a search engine that allows users to plug in ISBN numbers to find the best prices on books. However, buying novels is a little different. Because individual novels are so inexpensive when bought used, once you factor in the shipping costs from sites such as Amazon, Half, and Abe Books, the price of that book might actually be more than the cost of it on campus. Therefore, when you're buying inexpensive books, you absolutely have to compare prices at the bookstore and on used book websites to make sure you're paying as little as possible.
Buying books and textbooks can add up, but if you take the time to shop around, the savings can add up too. Still looking for even more savings? Check out my textbook buying guide here.

Today my winter vacation is going into an end. My class begins tomorrow and I'm lying on my bed writing this. Shuai is now out at somewhere else enjoying his last meal in Boston before he makes it to Connecticut and starts his new semester tomorrow. Liu's in her room on the 2nd floor. My room is quiet as always, though filled with all my belongings, water, clothes piled near a drawer and the table. My laptop reflects the light from the lamp near my bed, and it's been mostly like this at night for some weeks.
I joined a team for Guifabu, a Chinese website focusing on tech & media industries, founded by Lynn just for a few weeks.
So I'm writing this mainly for the convenience to organize my thoughts on what is needed to do and how.
From a writer's view, the first issue is, how the content can distinguish itself from its peers? The problem is that, every news that draws some attention would be reported on some other websites before you had thought about writing it, or even known it. It would feel like a tiny plant living under the dark shadow of a huge tree. Now I got to make it blossom, gracefully and impressively, though at a small, humble scale perhaps. I'll rather make it a beautiful eye candy for a few people than a large quantity of crap for the massive.
One possible way to do that might be aiming at a very specific, narrow but informative point, and therefore constructing an outstanding(alright, talk's cheap) article. I don't know if that works but I shall give it a try.
Ideally what I should do are:
Which are not so likely even for any single one of it, due to my time and capability(well, or just due to this) limits:(
But still, got a goal to fight for.
I'll start from the scratch and bottom, to achieve a tiny progress, like, talking to some startup, for whatever stories useful or useless. Let's see.
And after all, here comes a brand new adventurous exhaustive inhumane hell semester!! Fighting!15 January 2013
