Western Digital drive is DRM-crippled for your safety
Western Digital's 1TB My Book World Edition external hard drive has been crippled by DRM for your safety. A kindly Reg reader tipped us off that the remote-access HDD won't share media files over network connections. Which is, as you can see here, the entire stinking point of it. It's a scary world full of potentially …
Easy workaround
Zip the file . Works fine on mine lol .
Im more concerned with the nobbled ethernet . 4.6mbps max transfer takes the Michael . Really helpful limitation on a drive billed as 10/100/1000 . Several months down the line and still no fix for it . WD have admitted the transfer speed sucks and are "looking into it" . Try looking into it with your eyes open ......
Theres no need to use the mionet software on the cd as you can access to it via java from the mionet site .
Class Action?
I wonder how long before someone starts a class action against WD? The advertising clearly states that it can hold MP3, video, HD video etc. but makes no mention that you can't share those file types.
Guess I won't be buying any WD products in the future. Still, there is plenty of competition in this market already.
It's the Video!!
I don't know anyone with 1Tb of doc files and photos. The whole point of a 1Tb drive is to store and process video. Like you're a videographer, you have a lot of video footage you took with your Hi-Def DV camera and you're using iMovie, Final Cut and iDVD on a Mac to produce movies and video segments to be distributed by DVD and online by Quicktime.
It's really too bad that the aspiring videographer who purchases this drive will find after getting it home that it's a nice paper weight. That videographer will learn to avoid WD in the future. Hopefully the store he/she got it from will have a good return policy.
Plain stupid
I really am lost for words, chocolate teapots come to mind
Easy Workaround, Pt. 2
Don't use it.
...just a suggestion. :)
Stupid "Feature"
Users could just rename the file extension but the main point is they shouldn't have to. At the end of the day the reason most people have large hard drives is to store data files of the blocked types.
Hell I have something like 500 gig of video captured from online games with fraps. Even when I encode these down to avi all perfectly legal and legit this drive still wouldnt allow me to share them.
Just one more reason to to just buy a small NAS box and fill it with a couple of 1TB drives, then setup a vpn or something to get your data remotely.
Better workaround
Don't buy one! Buy something else.
Hoist by their own petard?
From the first link:
Use This Product When You Want To
* Listen to your music while on vacation.
From the second link:
Due to unverifiable media license authentication, the following file types cannot be shared by different users using WD Anywhere Access:
A lawsuit, surely, for false advertising?
Erm... but they advertise it...
...as being able to hold up to 250,000 songs (in MP3). Surely its misrepresentation? or false advertising?. What the heck is WD playing at? Some one needs to start beating them with the clue stick.
Just DON'T ever buy it
They can keep crap like this for themselves!
If nobody is foolish enough to pay cash for this drive they might learn the lesson.
...or maybe this drive is secretly subsidized by the RIAA and MPAA!
They arent lying you can share them
What you all missed is the term "Different user"
This is how it works ....
I can put anything on the drive as its my drive I own it . I can access everything regardless of file type from anywhere in the world .
I can let other people use it as well BUT they will only see the non protected files so all your mp3s avis etc will be invisible , The folders will be empty .
My brother in law also has a one of these drives and we know each others username and password for mionet . Not a fantastic way of doing it but again like the Zip method I highlighted earlier it works .
Afaik this protection only comes into play over the net and doesnt hamper LAN sharing .
Any other ways of getting around it?
Are there any other suggestions for getting around it- e.g. can you use Samba or something?
Brand Loyalty
Most people including me, choose their hard drive just by scanning prices and cost per GB. I'll just skip any Western Digital drives and go for the one below or above.
This could really be damaging, as most people know all drives have equal failure rates aside from personal experience and failures due to identical manufacturing bases. A huge black mark against WD will lose them a lot of money very quickly with normal SATA/IDE sales being linked to products that have DRM. Makes no difference to me to not buy WD and go for anyone else.
Will they learn ?
What is the point of a device for sharing files but wont share them. Assuming everyone is boot legging files is just downright malicious. How many people have their own video cameras? Did they read the Windows XP (I know, I know) installation adverts, of how GOOD Windows XP is for sharing your video files with your friends ?
I guess (hope?) that customers will realise that buying anything with DRM attached is a bad thing and that they will just pass them by on the shelves. When MS et al are unable to sell their products because of their groundless accusations, that anyone buying their product has criminal intent and must be restrained, I expect we shall see the end of it.
Works perfectly with Unlimited Internet Access*
* Home servers and the serving of content is prohibited
* Idle PPoE logins are automatically terminated
* Excessive bandwidth is prohibited
* No static IP addresses
* No bandwidth sharing with other computers
Alternate solutions
If you can live with the limitations of FAT32, get your own hard drive and Google for "LAN Server USB 2.0 3.5" HDD Aluminum LAN Enclosure" - under US$50, no TURDS (Technology Users' Rights Denial Systems), and highly reliable (I've been using one for well over 18 months; once in a while Windows on the clients does something outrageous, so I've had to reboot it 3 times).
Good-bye, WD. You're off our corporate "acceptable vendors" list.
Re: Will they learn?
"I guess (hope?) that customers will realise that buying anything with DRM attached is a bad thing and that they will just pass them by on the shelves"
Unless you're prepared to wield a length of Clue-By-Four with extreme prejudice, don't count on it - never underestimate the collective stupidity of people in large groups.
As for me, I've always bought WD drives because I've generally found them to be more reliable than their competitors - reliability tops price/Gb every time. However, if they insist on pulling fuckwitted stunts like this, it looks like I'll have to go back to Seacrates.
Vote with your wallet - I certainly intend to.
i see a problem with this (well, many in fact....,
but I will start with this one:
regardless of backdoor attacks..... the intended use has a major flaw:- a major reason to have an NHS database is to provide doctors with access to patient records so things like allergies can be detected sooner etc - so that means doctors will be able to pull up a record when a patient comes in the door - sounds reasonable... until the doctor in question happens to be in terrorist - which today (3 July 2007) 12 or so doctors have apparently proven to be. So if they can access medical records, they could easily steal identiies to use to cover their tracks e.g. pull up deceased records. And If the national ID database comes to fruitition and is linked in to the NHS...
Any tool the governement can create to help them, can be hacked and hence, help the enemy instead.
Trouble is abrewing.
That's why i am going to try out munich for a while.
Oh nuts.
I've just ordered a 2TB one of these today. I've heard the mionet software was rubbish but could be avoided, and £360 for 2TB is cheaper even than bare drives, but if the data transfer speed is rubbish it's going to take forever to back up my files.
@ Easy Workaround
Buy from any other manufacturer - there are plenty out there. Show WD what you think of their DRM'd device.
Removes product from cart, places back on shelf, and slowly backs away
Oh. My. Gawd. I was ~so~ close to purchasing one these exact products. I've picked it up and fondled the box at my local Costco during each of the past few visits. I delayed a bit only because I really want 2TB (just because). Phew. Close call. Thank you for alerting me to this nonsense.
They are pretty fragile anyway
We had one we were testing as an alternative to SDLT tape.
The very first time I took it to the server room and plugged it in it died.
It is currently stuck somewhere in the WD RMA process, which I might add is a slow and tedious process. It has taken them 9 days from receiving it to get it to their tech department.
I know what I won't be buying for Christmas
Anything made by Western Digital (Rights Mismanagement). And remember kiddies, a boycott is for life, not just for Christmas. :)
Not as if we don't have a choice of other vendors, is it?
Of course the clueless will buy it anyway, and with any luck subsequently return it for not working properly, or inundate the hell desk with calls and ALL CAPS emails.
Well done WD, it's only taken 30 years or so but someone has finally created a product even more useless than the infamous Sinclair Black Watch.
Of course the proper way of doing it is to buy an NSLU2 and a couple of USB HDDs (or, ideally, USB cases and seperate HDDs). Install debian and you can do whatever you want... think internet remote control, UPnP, standalone MP3 player (hook up USB sound card and some form of input)... anything.
As for everyone saying that this device is marketed purely for video... just think about putting backups on there (windows bkf files or something sensible)
Regardless, WD are now even further on my sh1t list
Of course...
They're trying to cover their asses before they are sued for facilitating copyright infringement, methinks...
But of course this is just stupid. Lots of free (as in beer AND speech) mp3 with lectures and speeches, as well as videos, that might be stored in this drive, etc... But no, you're automatically a criminal if you have any of these files shared.
What kind of kickback did they get?
...for including this censorware in the drive? Note to WD: Stick to what you're supposed to be doing: STORAGE. Leave the policing to someone else. I wouldn't touch your crippled product with a 10-foot USB cable. Slow too... Way to lose customers.
lost it.
Looks like Western Digital has completely lost the plot then.
...because of course those file types never have the copyright owned by the person who actually purchased the hard drive. I mean, it's not like anyone creates their own sound or video files. No, of course not. Everyone gets all such files from elsewhere, and never EVER actually has permission to use these files...
Fuck me, talk about a totally asinine, yet completely predictable product.
Another illegal move
By a once good company. Simple solution?
Just don;t buy any WD product of any kind. What they did is clearly illegal. they have to rights of any kind to dictate what i can do with my Hard Drive. Not hard to find who have pressure them to commit such a crime in the open? Well the most dangerous criminal cartel in the world: THe MPAA/RIAA.
Lawsuit? Yes! sueing them for selling a illegally crippled product.
Oh seriously...
Then don't use their remote access software. Set yourself up a vpn or ssh tunnel and just get the files that way. Sheesh.
Oh dear oh dear oh dear
The more I see of it the more I believe that the Western world is moving away from "presumed innocent, guilt must be proven" to "presumed guilt, innocence must be proven". This is just plain absurdity. Adios WD, no mo' cash from me!
Give a n00b a blog and look what happens. massive FUD explosion just in time for greed fest. Imagine if someone found out seagate had paid him.
IT is useful c.1995
"Use This Product When You Want To
* Listen to your music while on vacation."
"Due to unverifiable media license authentication, the following file types cannot be shared by different users using WD Anywhere Access:
Finally, a mass storage device for the MIDI purist.
I have solution for WD
Quick rewrite add an interface to change banned files list pretend it was there all along and we forgot to tell you about it. Since it really isn't part of hardware just stupid firmware anyway shouldn't be more than a momentary blip on their otherwise commonplace reputation. Their drives are still good but this is obviously a mistake of the first water.
what next
i can see a time coming soon when a device detects who is in a room anyone other than the person who bought or hired the movie or music and it wont play. Stupid sorry if i just gave the MAFIAA any ideas.
Who is WD?
I'm sorry. I there still anyone out there using WD drives?
I used them exclusively until WD started making noisy toasters instead of hard drives. I had four out of five fail within a year and stopped buying them. My supplier told me they were just getting too hot and he was dropping them as well.
My collection of 320Gb to 500Gb Seagates and Maxtors is humming along nicely thank you.
Instead of being smart about DRM, WD should try to make drives which work.
whats the point
The only reason you would buy a 1tb drive is if you have media files.... so um... what the hell is the point of this??!!
anyway who are they to say what you put on your own hard drive which you have paid with your own $$!
Safe harbour?
As far as I can see, WD *have* to do this. They may not be a common carrier (look it up) and may not be protected by safe harbour. I know we're talking about US law, but WD is a US company. IANAL, of course, but this is basic arse-covering law that every sysadmin should know.
A huge FUDpile over one little move to protect themselves whilst still providing a useful service to those who need, say, to access technical manuals on the move from a pitifully small hard disk equipped "corporate" laptop. Read the damned articles on it: It's not stopping YOU from accessing anything, whether that be over MioNet or your own LAN. It's stopping you from turning WD's MioNet (they have just Borged it. Read the "about us" page http://www.mionet.com/about/overview.jsp) into the next big copyright infringement site which, as far as I'm concerned, is a totally acceptable, even necessary, thing for them to do. In fact, they have been very generous (or foolish) not to include .iso and cue/bin in those restrictions. I know I would have.
On the bright side
It doesn't seem, from their list, to block .zip, .rar or .torrent files.
That's made my next purchase easier
When I buy my new hard disk I won't need to look at Western Digital drives.
How jolly enjoyable it would be...
... to format this drive, install some other media streaming app onto it, and using it anyway?
I guess you could buy a caddy and a 1TB hard drive separately, though.
Guess i'll buy Seagate, Maxtor, or Hitachi from now on. BOO SUCKS TO YOU WITH KNOBS ON!
Easy in UK: invalid product description
I think you're 100% entitled to return the product for a FULL refund as the description does not make a mention of this and the product thus falls foul of the formal requirements for a product description (I think it's in the Trade Description Act 1968, but I could be wrong here).
In principle, the way WD advertises the product makes it appear there are no restrictions on usage and that's also a "reasonable expectation". Unless the restrictions are very clearly identified where the product is advertised (like on a website with an online retailer) the description of the product can be deemed misleading and are thus in breach.
The nicest way to make this clear to WD is if a number of these devices are sold and then returned, because the return cannot be at your cost as you were mislead, and the usual restocking fee should also not apply. If in doubt, consult your nearest Trading Standars office, which also has as nice side effect that they will act if they get multiple, identical claims.
Having said that, why bother? Just buy another make, it's not like there's a shortage of competition. In addition you may want to find an alternative that does NOT stand on its end like a book (a common 'designer' idea) - if this thing falls over when the disk is live (i.e. spinning) a headcrash is VERY likely, and that means bye bye to all the data on the disk. Bam - gone. It's a common 'feature' of most external drives as well.
That's why we need free software
That's why we need free software, even and especially on embedded devices. It wouldn't be a problem if you could just reflash your drive's ROM and get some decent software onto it.
Another easy workaround
Go to shop -> Return drive and get money back -> Buy another brand -> Problem solved.
total non-story
the owner can access any file from anywhere - it just can't be used to make your record and dvd collection available to the world.
I do wish the sadly ageing vulture would think before publishing rubbish like this.
Lost customer
I've always chosen WD hard drives over other brands.
WD... You just lost a long standing customer.
@ the admins.. can you pack these comments and send them to WD ?
Better to buy the drive, use it for a couple of days and then return it...
Costs WD more and nothing will bring the issue to the attention of their management faster than a big, sudden loss because of angry customers returning used product - backed up by legal hefty standards.
Personally, I'm disappointed. I own several WD "My Book" drives - although I never bought one with an Ethernet connection (just Firewire and USB 2). However, this episode isn't likely to persuade me to buy an Ethernet model in the future - especially as my router has a USB 2 socket that can just take an external drive and share it outside and inside my network. (T-Com Speedport W 900V).
I'd like to see WD stop pandering to Hollywood and sell hardware that can be used for the purpose it was purchased for. I personally run a Solaris box for sharing stuff - I don't trust Windows's opinion of what I should be sharing (or not) with the rest of my subnet - that's for me to decide. The very reason I stopped buying Sony Discman CD players so many years ago was because they didn't support MP3. Just about everyone else did, so Sony disappeared off my shopping lists forever. WD should take note - the same will happen to them if they aren't careful.
I was going to get a couple of these, not because I'm technically unsavvy but just because they looked like a simple quick solution. Having read this article I am NOT going to buy them. I have emailed WD and told them that they have lost sales due to their decision to deny me access to my own damned files.
I hope that anyone else who was thinking of getting any WD digital product AT ALL will now purchase a similar product from a rival and then email WD to tell them that their arrogance and stupidity has lost them sales.
As they specifically state : "Listen to your music while on vacation." as one of its selling features and then block mp3 files from being shared I would have through that Trading Standards would like to pay them a visit
Better Alternatives...
Pick up a Buffalo Linkstation live. I liked the one in Work so much I bought my own... Faster than a Greyhound on speed, no restrictions (unless you enable them) and the latest updated for its build in linux distro makes it web accessible as well.
Sneaky commercial plan.....?
Maxtor ATA/SATA drives are usually what I end up purchasing for my own use, and Seagate SCSI drives for work. I have never owned a WD drive and I don't think I've ever seen one in a commercial server, so I can't comment on their quality.
I though they were a pretty respected company, but this just seems like a great way to alienate customers UNLESS they go aiming for corporate customers. They don't want their employees wasting company time and resources downloading Kylie on her mechanical bull (apparently, the most common file on corporate file servers in the UK in 2007!!). A lot of companies buy software just to keep their servers clean of illegal MP3s. Add a few bits to the code to deny certain file types like MP3 and they could be on to a winner.
Not a Question of Workarounds
From what I read earlier today the trivial workaround is not to use their software.
However how can one retain any trust in a company that pulls off a stupid stunt like this one? WD's business is supposed to be selling disc drives. The RIAA's is suing grandmothers who do not own computers.
I doubt that, even in the US, selling disc drives could be considered to be facilitating "piracy", at least not in any sane courtroom. (OOPS! Are there any left?)

I had my girlfriends Ancorneil, Tara, and Elizy audition dancers with me for our upcoming Americana pool party -- which we usually do every other year along with our Halloween party. When David and I have parties, it's something that we refuse to do half-arsed, otherwise we don't see the point. Our friends always leave having had a great time, there's nothing worse than a dull party, and god knows I've experienced those. Why inflict that kind of boring pain?
The girls were great, but I really needed a wow factor. My gorgeous friend Lanny made a recommendation -- and in walked Diana Diaz! I swear I heard the angels sing! Could not believe how beautiful and talented she was -- and her insane core strength. When I think of pole dancing, I don't think of sashaying around the pole. If it's done right it's a true art form that is inspiring. Anyone can spin around a pole, even me, but Diana is the real deal. She's a trained dancer and was a pole aerialist with Cirque du Soleil in Vegas and that's the kind of quality I wanted for our party. David and I were in Vegas this weekend at a club called Surrender in the Wynn Hotel and saw the same type of pole dancers literally holding themselves up with one bloody hand with their bodies extended horizontally. It was truly amazing!!!
As far as the gun scene: Waiving your personally loaded gun around like a hairbrush speaks volumes. Oh Tom, the pistol range manager, did not look happy with you as you repeatedly pointed it at him. You should honestly stick to baseball bats. There is such a thing about having respect for a gun and not thinking that you're in your own bad action movie. Guns are not a joke.

Music Sound Card - That is compatible with Windows 7?
I'm talking about music sound cards here guys, like names like M-Audio and such.

Also and older RME PCI 8 in/out card which also worked well but is living in another computer. Also have a Presonus Firestudio for mobile recording, haven't tried it with Win7, the non-beta release drivers were just posted.
I keep the M-Audio separate from functioning as standard system audio, have it set to only work with Cubase and Winamp.

The four potential presidential candidates invited to the The Republican Jewish Coalition conferencewere Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Scott Walker and John Kasich.Romney donors are not Mom and Pop donors , they are those who raise millions ( bundle ) and personally donate millions to Republican candidates and causes.Sheldon Adelson was Newt Gingrich´s primary financial supporter in 2012as Foster Freiss was to Santorum.Besides Newt , Adelson and his wife donated 93 million to various Republican PACs in 2012.Including 34 million to organizations and PACs supporting Romney.It is astronomically expensive to run for president.Romney´s army of big money men presently like Jeb Bush and had earlier expressed interest in Christie.It´s a free country and they get to support , with their money , the candidates they like.One of the potential big money men on the Tea Party right is Rush Limbaugh.He is free to bundle money for and subsidize a candidate like Ted Cruz or Sarah Palin.As are the writers at Breitbart and other Tea Party organizations.

I absolutely, absolutely would not want to see Jeb Bush as the GOP candidate, and I would be in a very difficult quandary were it to come to pass. Aside from an utter distaste at the notion of Presidential aristocracies being permanent fixtures on the national scene, I particularly fault Jeb Bush for being a major pusher of the Common Core education "reform." I´m with Bill Buckley preferring a name chosen at random from the telephone book rather than another Bush, or Clinton, or any other political aristocrat who thinks the Presidency is their birthright.

So-called Romney donors were paying for an Obama win. Donors of both parties favor the radical left agenda. Romney´s own famous millions were silent when it came to beating Obama. Reuters reported in 2012 that Romney took extensive time off from the campaign v Obama to do additional fundraising. The campaign needed money and he refused to put any of his own in it. Per Boston Globe postmortem, Romney and the RNC both knew Romney had almost no people on the ground in states v Obama. No one attempted to correct this. The GOP election machine still made $1 billion on Romney´s failed bid. Actually, it was a successful bid. Obama´s re-election greatly helped John Boehner who immediately sidelined conservative members, told them the GOP lost and it was time to give Obama what he wanted, per NY Times. The donor class of both parties wants Open borders, Common Core, ObamaCare, etc. The GOP donor class is paying to silence conservatives.

Whoever wins the Republican nomination, get out there and unite behind him/her, folks, or you´ll get 4 years of Hillary. Because so many of you stayed home and did not vote for Romney, we got jugears for another disastrous four years. Work for your candidate to be nominated, but if your choice loses the nomination, unite, or fall.

Count me as a member of the vast majority of former Republicans turned Tea Party that do not want Romney, Jeb Bush, McCain or Christie this time around. Hey #11.... $5 grand? Really? Why?

Scott Walker, Ben Carson, Mike Pence, Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Marco Rubio, Condi Rice.Take your pick. Guess who´s name doesn´t appear on that list!? That being said, I will support any Republican who gets nominated. The worst Republican is better than any Democrat, especially Hillary.

Reagan had to fight this kind of establishment wall too. It wasn´t easy but he hurdled it.Cruz can win the nomination if the base unites to get him there.After that he can win the country because he is what the voters actually want, and will want, after they see him.Expose Murphy for the loser he is. His saying Cruz can´t win the general election is as dumb as anything Biden says. Expose it. Fight.

I will on this site state for a fact that if we run another RINO it will be four years of Hillary(you know the PIAPS is going to run). Now I voted for Bush´s dad, brother, McVain and Romney but now we need someone who will light a fire and take it to the democrats. I would give my support to Cruz, Lee, Perry, Jindal, Carson or Walker. A Bush or a Christy just doesn´t do it for me.

Sheldon Adelson gave millions to Newt before Newt flamed out. Then Adelson switched to Romney. Not sure how that means Adelson will next support Jeb.As for the word of "one bundler". - some folks on this site certainly give a lot of credence to hearsay.I did read from the Salon (Slate?) article posted yesterday that Jeb - in his recent book - wrote that illegals must go home before they could apply for citizenship. That is a surprise to me - but I doubt that he would stick to that position. And even if he did there is probably a catch.

If you don´t want Bush vs PIAPS in 2016, vote in the primaries. But if it comes down to that choice, I for one, will not stay home, then complain that she won.My list of choices is long before I get to Jeb´s name, but not even a RINO is worse than PIAPS. Even (gulp) McPain.

Carlos Tevez's tremendous performance was the silver lining in the cloud of defeat for United in the UEFA Super Cup final.
Sir Alex Ferguson picked out the striker's display as a highlight, saying: "I thought Tevez was the outstanding player on the pitch, I thought he was fantastic, our best player."
The Argentinian's tenacity helped the Reds to come back from two goals down against Zenit St Petersburg and almost take the game into extra time. He was at the heart of virtually every attack, creating chances including the one converted by Nemanja Vidic.
"I thought we had the best chances throughout the match," added Sir Alex.
"There was one in the first half for Wayne Rooney, and some in the second half when we were 2-0 down. That was when we played probably our best football.
"I think it was an open game, I think both teams did very well. The players have put a good effort in on a warm night and there were a lot of tired players at the end of it."
Sir Alex was gracious in defeat and said fans enjoyed an entertaining spectacle.
"I think it was a good, open game and both teams put a lot of effort in on a very hot night. We congratulate Zenit St Petersburg on their victory.
"They're a very good team with good movement. They're strong. I think they'll have a good chance [in the Champions League]."

Hearing set for drunken driving bills
Updated On: Aug 11 2013 08:29:23 AM CDT
The public will get a chance to sound off this week on a new set of bills that would create tougher penalties for drunken drivers.
The Assembly Judiciary Committee has scheduled a public hearing for Thursday on the measures, which would make a first offense a misdemeanor if the driver's blood alcohol level is 0.15 percent or higher, allow authorities to seize drunken drivers' cars and require mandatory court appearances for accused drunken drivers.
The committee isn't expected to take any action but will listen to public comments on the proposals.
The bills' Republican authors, Rep. Jim Ott and Sen. Alberta Darling, also are pushing bills that would make third and fourth offenses felonies and create mandatory sentences for drunken drivers who injure or kill someone.

Sharkeisha Video, Reactions Slammed By Anti-Bullying Groupsby Free Britney at . Updated at . Comments
The video showing a Houston teen named Sharkeisha beating up another girl is still getting heavy play on social media and blogs over a week after it went viral.
Anti-bullying groups and others aren't pleased about that, either, particularly when it comes to people cheering on the girl and her vicious sucker punch.
The video was uploaded to Instagram last week before being removed due to terms of use violations. It has also been yanked from Twitter and Facebook.
Still, Sharkeisha remains a hot topic across the web, and the Anti-Bullying Alliance is condemning it, as well as the act of sharing violence online.
The group's Luke Roberts told the International Business Times:
"It is important that young people, the media industry, government and parents work together to make young people feel protected when online."
"It is important to remind young people that what they put online is permanent and difficult to take down," he added of the video's staging and sharing.
"Young people don't seem to comprehend that what you do at 14 might affect you when you are 19 looking for a job," he said, stating the obvious.
Sharkeisha may have trouble getting one after this, we're guessing.
Kidscape's Director of Services, Peter Bradley, said the bigger issue here is that lots of people enjoyed watching and sharing the video in question:
"These actions illustrate thousands of young people who have taken a part in an attack on an innocent young woman and the images posted on the internet."
Demetria L. Lucas, an editor with the Root, denounced the apparent glorification of the violence in the Sharkeisha video on Twitter and Facebook:
"It's a vulgar display of violence, a tragic depiction of someone lacking anger management and humanity and a shocking example of just how wayward some teens are."
"Sharkeisha's reaction to a petty dispute over, likely, a boy who didn't care about either of these girls is a clear-cut case of assault."
"This isn't funny. At all. This isn't entertainment to get through the workday. The way that girl was kicked in the face could have resulted in her death."
Sharkeisha victim Shamichael Manuel told KHOU-TV that Sharkeisha used to be her friend before this, and that she was invited over after school.
Little did she know she would be assaulted in cowardly fashion.
She says she was set up by Sharkeisha and others, punched and kicked when she wasn't even looking in what was a pathetic act of senseless brutality.
VOTE: Should Sharkeisha be arrested for this attack?
Is this about 1 black person
Don't include all black pople
Not all black people's the same
I only clicked on this article after seeing the headline for a couple days in a row. Call me what you will but at first glance, I thought the name was some D-list movie name, possibly something goofy like Sharknado but the keisha part was a curiosity. Now that I know what occurred, I feel bad for the victim and hopes all that took part as aggressors and bystanders go to jail. As for Sharkeisha, she needs to get her head screwed on straight, work hard to earn money, and CHANGE that damned name.
Any parent who names their child any crazy names like this should be forced to spend a day at a homeless shelter, another day at social services hearing the stories of the downtrodden, a day at a jail or prison, and one last day at any place that pays minimum wage or barely over. The child given ebonic sounding names will suffer the consequences and be at higher risk of landing at any one or any combination of the aforementioned places...possibly in a lifelong catch 22.
"Sharkeisha may have trouble getting one (a job) in the future, we're guessing" She's black. She isn't getting a job in the future. She'll just go on welfare and food stamps sitting in her "hood" looking for "niggas tryna f*ck"
you go nigg^rs!
Looking at her is proof enough she is black- Hearing that name is GHETTO BLACK! As if being black was not enough of a curse. They seperate themselves from a productive society.
I don't event know where to begin with such a vile comment. I love the fact that you hide behind your computer with no pic and spew so much hatred. To further prove how ignorant you are, Yes I am black, I am also a decorated combat veteran( 2 tours in Iraq), currently an E6 IN THE ARMY RESERVES WITH A TS Clearance due to the nature of my military occupational specialty and I currenly hold a degree in Criminal Justice from Temple Universtiy in Philadelphia. I am a productive Black male, with no arrest record and no children. I am very proud to be black and I don't view it as a curse, though people like you make me wonder.
I totally agree with you on the job prospect part (but I would not be less trustworthy based on name.) There was a study using identical resumes (one with a mainstream american name, such as David, or Jason and another with a name simular that was unique like "Sharkiesha." The resume with the mainstream name got calls for an interview and the ebonic sounding name did not.
A child is a life, a human being who will need to compete in this world for the same jobs as everybody else. In any economic environment, being unique should be limited to using an 'older' name, such as Sofia. I could also understand other 'pretty' names, but 'Sharkiesha' and 'Shamichael' are one of the worst. Their parents would be more effective wearing a t-shirt that reads, "I'm retarded!" That is probably why is unhappy enough to treat a friend the way she did. Her home life probably sucks! She is as much as a victim of her circumstances as the girl she hit. Her family could not even give her a decent name to start life with. Much less her everyday educational, social, and health needs.
...............women don't fight........................it's a fact though.
What could anyone be thinking when they name their kid Sharkeshia or Shamichael? WTF kind of butchered up black name is that? You can't even claim its an ancestral name! It's butchered shit. Who in the hell will hire your ass when they see that name on a resume. It has ghetto written all over it. A name like that should be 2nd degree child abuse. Were labor intense drugs a factor? Was mother under the influence. How fu*king stupid can a person be. Unless of course you voted for Obama twice then that would be competition for ignorance. Regardless both will do without for a long time along with a 2 time Obama loser. It's baffling how someone could end up with a handle like that.
The name thing is killing me too. The desire of parents to ensure individuality in their children's names is getting ridiculous. More focus on the child and working on the best future for them is what's going to really make them stand out. It's not a black or white thing. It's an issue of being a part of your child's life, which is apparent in this story that the offender is lacking parental guidance. Having a child is something the general population takes for granted and a lot of parents just give up when it doesn't fit their schedule. And the argument that parents can't be there all the time to make sure their children aren't influenced by others is bull****. Teaching morals and guidelines at a young age will help in making sure this type of behavior doesn't happen. Quit being selfish and stop letting television and entertainment raise your children, America.
Very well said! What must go thru a persons mind when the conceive a child. For a child to carry names like that is not good judgement on the parents part. If you cannot make your child a usefull component in society then you shouldn't have a child. To name a child that then you are handicapping that kid. I would never hire a person with that kind of name I would lock my shit up.

Next Event
Saturday, February 9, 2013 at 1:00 p.m.
PONCHO Hall, 710 East Roy Street, Seattle, WA
Event has passed
Elite classical guitarist Jason Vieaux presents this special masterclass.
Jason Vieaux, "among the elite of today's classical guitarists" (Gramophone), is the classical guitarist that goes beyond the classical. He has earned a reputation for putting his expressive gifts and virtuosity at the service of a remarkably wide range of music, and his schedule of recital, concerto, chamber music, teaching and recording commitments is distinguished with return engagements throughout the U.S. and abroad.
This year, Vieaux's performance invitations have included returns to the Caramoor Festival, New York's 92nd Street Y "Guitar Marathon", the Elgin Symphony and others. Numerous highlights for 2012-2013 include concertos with the symphonies of Houston, Toronto, Spokane, Augusta (GA) and Silicon Valley, a performance of the Lukas Foss Concerto for the New Hampshire Music Festival, duo recitals with acclaimed harpist Yolanda Kondonassis and accordion/bandoneon virtuoso Julien Labro, solo recitals in Austin, at the Mannes School of Music and California's La Guitarra Festival, and another Curtis On Tour sojourn, this time to South America. In May 2012, the Jason Vieaux Guitar Academy was launched in partnership with ArtistWorks Inc., an unprecedented technological interface that provides a one-on-one online study exchange between Vieaux and guitar students around the world.
Jason Vieaux continues to bring important repertoire alive in the recording studio. A new Azica Records album of solo guitar encores is planned for a 2013 release. Among his 11 commercial albums is an Azica disc of Astor Piazzolla's music with Julien Labro and A Far Cry Chamber Orchestra. Bach: Works for Lute, Vol.1 hit No. 13 on Billboard's Classical Chart after its first week and received rave reviews by Gramophone, The Absolute Sound, and Soundboard. Images of Metheny features music by American jazz legend Pat Metheny, who, after hearing this landmark recording, declared: "I am flattered to be included in Jason's musical world." Sevilla: The Music of Isaac Albeniz made several Top Ten lists the year of its release. Vieaux's albums and live performances are regularly heard on radio stations across the country, and his work is the subject of feature articles in print and online around the world every year, including in such magazines as Acoustic Guitar, MUSO, and Gramophone, and on NPR's "Deceptive Cadence" music blog.
Jason Vieaux has performed as concerto soloist with over 50 orchestras, including Cleveland, San Diego, Ft. Worth, Santa Fe, Charlotte, Buffalo, Grand Rapids, Kitchener-Waterloo, Richmond, IRIS Chamber, Chautauqua Festival, and Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia. Some of the conductors he has worked recently include David Robertson, Michael Stern, Jahja Ling, Miguel Harth-Bedoya, Stefan Sanderling, David Lockington, Andrew Constantine, Steven Smith, and Edwin Outwater. His solo recitals have been featured at every major guitar series in North America, as well as many of the important guitar festivals in Asia, Australia, Europe, and Mexico. Vieaux's appearances for Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Music@Menlo, Strings Music Festival, Grand Teton Festival, and the Jupiter Symphony Chamber Players have forged his reputation as a first-rate chamber musician and programmer. And his passion for new music has fostered premieres of works by Dan Visconti, David Ludwig, Jerod Tate, Eric Sessler, José Luis Merlin and Gary Schocker.
In 2011, Jason Vieaux co-founded the Guitar Department at The Curtis Institute of Music with guitarist David Starobin, while continuing to head of the Guitar Department of the Cleveland Institute of Music. He is a member of the Advisory Board of the Guitar Foundation of America (GFA), and is affiliated with Philadelphia's Astral Artists, for which he gives outreach concerts. Mr. Vieaux's primary teachers were Jeremy Sparks and John Holmquist. In 1992 he was awarded the prestigious GFA International Guitar Competition 1st Prize, the event's youngest winner ever. He is also honored with a Naumburg Foundation top prize, a Cleveland Institute of Music Alumni Achievement Award, and a Salon di Virtuosi Career Grant.
In 1995, Vieaux was an Artistic Ambassador of the US to Southeast Asia, concertizing in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, India, Bangladesh, Myannmar, and Nepal.

In the last ten years, 45 Lady Crusaders have gone to college on athletic scholarships, and some have gone on to play professionally in the WNBA and overseas.
It's a few weeks before Christmas, and Richardson has been traveling a lot with the team and hasn't had much time to decorate or shop. She's not sure how she'll get everything done by the 25th.
Not that she's complaining—Richardson likes to be busy. The Crusaders opened the season with games in Jacksonville, Florida, and later they'll travel to Hampton, Virginia; Erie, Pennsylvania; the Bronx; and, for the Nike tournament, Arizona. By the season's end in March, the team will have played 35 games, 15 against nationally ranked opponents. An ESPN writer called Riverdale's schedule "perhaps the most murderous in the country."
Richardson smiles at the comment. As the schedule's architect—the Crusaders don't belong to a league, so it's up to the coach to schedule games—she doesn't want the season to be a cakewalk for her kids; she wants to challenge them even if it means taking some losses. It's part of her coaching philosophy: You're only as good as the teams you play. "And we want to be the best," she says.
For Riverdale, that means spending lots of time on the road. While there are good teams in Washington, many are reluctant to play the Crusaders—coaches worry that their best players might be lured by the shiny Nike gear and the team's success. Their fear isn't completely unfounded: Eleven of this year's varsity players transferred to Riverdale from other local high schools. Richardson swears she doesn't actively recruit kids from other schools—meaning that neither she nor her coaching staff makes the first contact—but some coaches don't buy it.
Absent from the 2010–11 schedule are such Washington powerhouses as Holy Cross, Good Counsel, and Bishop McNamara. The Crusaders won't play any public-school teams from Prince George's, Montgomery, and Fairfax counties, either. Their biggest local matchups are with Anne Arundel's Archbishop Spalding, to which the Crusaders lost 69–58 at a tournament in early December, and DC's St. John's High School, another nationally ranked team they will play in February. If they're able to beat St. John's, which outranks the Crusaders on both local and national lists, it'll give them hometown bragging rights.
But Richardson doesn't want to get ahead of herself. Her team isn't coming together as much as she'd like, and she's not getting the consistency from her players she's used to. She has tried several variations of her starting lineup—Maya Singleton instead of Deja Hawkins at the 5 position, Jonquel Jones for Jennie Simms at the 4—but something's not clicking.
Then there's Tyonna Williams. She's a natural leader—one of the reasons Richardson made her a captain—but she has that razor-sharp feistiness that can either fire you up or dissolve you into tears, depending on the day. Without knowing it, Tyonna can send the team's morale into a tailspin.
"She's had to fight for everything—that's where she gets it," Richardson says. "She's just like I was growing up."
Next: Living from paycheck to paycheck

I've had my Venus for 14yrs. She is a very happy healthy parrot. She has a discharge from her nose. She does not show any signs of distress and her behavior is still happy and playful. She is eatting fine. My daughter had a cold and she is very attentive to our bird. My Vet told me from the beginning he does not do birds. He only keeps her clipped. I am still frightened about the discharge. What to do?

Cataract surgery decreases risk of falls in older patients
Orlando, Fla. — New research finds that cataract surgery dramatically decreases the number of falls individuals suffer due to poor vision. The research is being presented at the 2014 Annual Meeting of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) this week in Orlando, Fla.
In a study of more than 400 Vietnamese patients who were 50-plus years old with cataracts in both eyes, the number of falls patients suffered before and after cataract surgery was monitored. Researchers found a 78% decrease in the risk of falls the year after patients had cataract surgery on one eye.
A cataract, which develops when the part of the eye known as the lens becomes cloudy, is a common eye condition in senior citizens that leads to dull or blurry vision.
Abstract Title: A Longitudinal Study of the Impact of First and Second Eye Cataract Surgery on Falls in VietnamPresentation Start/End Time: Monday, May 5, 11:30 – 11:45amLocation: S 320CDSession Number: 231

Hazmat crews at a Bristol shopping center
Published On: Aug 08 2014 02:36:15 PM CDT
Bristol, Virginia Fire Department hazmat crews are at the shopping center across from the new Food City on Euclid Ave.
An area in the parking lot has been closed off. The crews are trying to contain water runoff from a building's roof that was painted on Thursday.
Fire officials say the paint is mixing with the rain and going into the storm drains. The crews are trying to prevent that from happening.
They tell News 5 they have prevented the material from getting into the creek located behind the building. State emergency management is also on scene to help with the investigation.

Click the pic above for more high-res shots of the BRABUS Bullit.
The term "sleeper" isn't quite accurate when referring to the BRABUS Bullit. It has presence, with an air of understated brutality. The aero mods speak volumes about its predilection for sinister speed, and the V12 emblems flanking the sides only tell half the story. Housed within the engine bay is BRABUS' own SV12 Biturbo mill, producing 720 HP and an electronically governed 811 lb.-ft. of torque (974 lb.-ft. of twist would be available if it wouldn't tear apart the rear diff and liquify the tires). On your way up to the 224 MPH top speed, you'll pass 62 MPH in just under four seconds, and if you want all the details, you can read through our initial post here and check out our high-res pics in the gallery below.

To be very, very drunk. Contrary to the guy before me, the word 'mortal' is also used in the North-East of England (ie: Newcastle and Sunderland)
Last night, I was proper mortal!!!!
بواسطة MichaelToTheJ يونيو 6, 2007
To get so incredibly drunk you only escape your mortality from alcoholic poisoning by pure luck. Probably originating somewhere north uk (or another country altogether). This term is usually used prior to going out drinking, and is followed by a failed effort or pretence of being incredibly drunk.
"I'm gonna get mortal tonight! So lock up your daughters/sons/animals/other"
بواسطة sarcasmqueen يناير 11, 2014
An insult in the Percy Jackson or Heroes Of Olympus fandoms. Meaning being idiotic or ignorant. Mostly fangirls or fanboys will call you this. It is very offensive to fangirls or fanboys if called a mortal. Be prepared to be stabbed, smacked, or punched. (For some extra zing they might stab u with a pen)
Oh my gods dude, your such a mortal.

Ivy Day 2010: alumnae parade, seniors in white, Tori Murden' speech. Video.
Ivy Day 2010: alumnae parade, seniors in white, Tori Murden' speech. Video.
As of this year, it is no longer required for returning students to attend Central Check-In when they arrive on campus for the fall semester. Only newly entering students—first-years, including Ada Comstock Scholars, and transfer students—must attend. Central Check-In for all new students will take place at the Indoor Track and Tennis facility (ITT) on Monday, Aug. 30, 1-4 p.m. and Tuesday, Aug. 31, 9 a.m.-noon. Returning students will pick up their keys as usual at the ITT as they arrive (the schedule for key distribution will be publicized during the summer). Returning students with outstanding business with any office on campus will need to contact or stop by those offices as soon as possible upon arriving at Smith.
Remember that time, students, a few weeks into your first semester at Smith, when you said to your friends, "I'm gonna head home," and for the first time "home" had a different meaning? No longer Boston, not Chicago anymore, nor California or wherever you came from. Home now meant Wilson, or Tyler, or Chapin house.
For many of us graduating seniors, Smith has been home for the past four years. A place to throw your backpack. A place to sleep in on a rainy day, share meals with friends, a place to feel safe and comfortable, and loved. Home is important.
As I prepare to leave Smith, I feel like I'm about to leave home again.
Campus Center student workers want your shoes.
As part of a drive to support Soles4Souls, a Nashville-based charity that collects shoes and distributes to people in need around the world, Campus Center student employees are fanning out on campus through this week to gather footwear. Shoes collected by the drive will be shipped by Soles4Souls to Haiti to assist with the country's relief efforts following the devastating earthquake there in January.
The students will visit every student residence to place collection boxes for donated shoes. Also, staff and faculty members are encouraged to donate shoes or money to help with shipping costs.
I was homeschooled during high school, so I knew I wanted a college with strong academics where I could also study dance, and Smith had everything. Not only are the dance academic classes thought-provoking, there are numerous opportunities to perform and choreograph. I have had my own work shown in several of the spring dance concerts and will be working on my senior thesis this year.
Along with taking courses in my major, I'm trying to take a class in as many departments as I can. Smith's open curriculum has made this possible, which is something I really appreciate.
Smith encourages and fosters student leaders, creating an environment of very active students. With that tone, the people you meet here — you know they're going to go off and do amazing things.

Sound Quality Evaluation of Car Interior Noise Using Brain Magnetic Field
The production concept of car engine sound has been changing from finding a solution to noise to designing sound. Although many studies have been conducted on creating comfortable car-engine sound, the psychoacoustic effects of time-varying rate for accelerating-engine sounds are still unclear. Thus, we investigated the effects of increasing the frequency rate of car interior noise on auditory impressions using psychological and neurophysiological methods. Harmonic complex tones that simulate acceleration noise were used as stimuli. First, relationship between 'sporty' feeling from dynamic charastics from the engine sound and brain meganetic fields was invertigated. In this investigation, subjective evaluations were examined using the semantic differential (SD) method. And neuronal activities of the auditory cortex evoked by these stimuli were measured by magnetoencephalography (MEG). The results indicated that has a significant effect on subjective impressions and on neuronal activities of the auditory cortex. Second, we investigated the relationships between subjective preference and brain magnetic fields for accelerating car interior noise. Subjective evaluations were examined using the paired-comparison method. At the same time, the MEG alpha-waves range (8-13 Hz) measurements were made and analyzed using the autocorrelation function (ACF). The results indicate that the effective duration of the ACF of the MEGs of between 8 and 13 Hz lengthens after the presentation of a preferred sound.

In 2012, the Thunder remained mostly quiet at the trade deadline, holding on to the roster they had in place. Patience was the plan. But after the dust settled, Derek Fisher was bought out by the Rockets, and then signed by the Thunder, becoming part of the rotation for the team that trucked its way to the Finals.
This deadline, again, the Thunder didn't make a trade. They tried to, didn't. But it's pretty clear: They have intentions of adding another player to the team anyway.
It makes sense. With two open spots available and about $2.3 million to spend before hitting the luxury tax, the Thunder are set up to make additions without subtractions. At the deadline, that's what they wanted to accomplish, but their trade partners wanted players back.
