Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)Lawmakers sounding off on domestic drone use
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
June 21st, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) The revelations that the Federal Bureau of Investigation has been using unmanned drones to scour the United States have prompted passionate discussion among lawmakers on both sides of the political spectrum. The debate comes as U.S. President Barack Obama nominates a new FBI director. The bureau is under increasing pressure from lawmakers to explain the limits of its recently disclosed drone fleet. LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Senators on both have fired off sharply worded letters and statements in recent days criticizing the FBI for deploying surveillance drones without clear guidance on how to protect privacy rights."I am disturbed by the revelation that the FBI has unilaterally decided to begin using drone surveillance technology without a governance policy, and thus without the requisite assurances that the constitutional rights of Americans are being protected," Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) says. Paul was the latest to scrutinize the bureau, and sent a letter to outgoing Director Robert Mueller asking a string of questions about his agency's drone use. Mueller had earlier acknowledged during a Senate hearing, that the bureau has a limited number of drones that it uses for surveillance on U.S. soil, stressing that they are used in a "very, very minimal way and very seldom." As evidence, freshly procured documents show that the FBI has sought and received permission from the FAA at least four times to fly surveillance drones inside the U.S. since 2010. The revelations come at a time when the use of non-lethal drones for surveillance purposes is quickly gaining favor among local law enforcement agencies and others. Mueller, in acknowledging that the FBI, too, has obtained surveillance drones, said the bureau is in the "initial stages" of drafting rules and regulations for their use." "I am concerned the FBI is deploying drone technology while only being in the 'initial stages' of developing guidelines to protect Americans' privacy rights," Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) said, who took umbrage that while drones have the potential to help law enforcement agencies, constitutional rights must come first. "I look forward to learning more about this program and will do everything in my power to hold the FBI accountable and ensure its actions respect the U.S. Constitution," he said in a statement. The FBI clarified that its drone use is governed by existing bureau regulations and FAA rules. The specific drone model is the PUMA AE, manufactured by California firm AeroVironment. Hand-launched, battery-powered the PUMA AE can send live color and thermal video to its operator. It is designed to respond to disasters and other incidents. The issue is likely to follow Obama's new nominee to lead the FBI, Jim Comey. Obama nominated the former federal prosecutor on Friday.

They have his CC receipts and email confirmations of his payment and codes that were sent to him.
The demand letter is for the usual $3500. amount.
He is currently weighing his options but in my opinion the paper trail is just to much for him to beat this one.
We'll see where it goes.
Piratecardblues is a very interesting site to see.Some might want to check it out.
Happy testing,

From the Law Office of Gary Ruff:
Have you received a satellite TV company letter claiming you have purchased an "Illegal Satellite Signal Theft Device and/or other correspondence under the caption of "Satellite Signal Theft" or "Modified Receiver"? Or, are you being sued? If so, this site is presented for your information.
One preliminary note: As xxxectv (xxxect TV) has been at the forefront of civil litigation in this area, all of the cases herein involve them. You should understand however, that the author offers defense representation against all satellite providers; including of course, Dish Network (Echostar).
As to Echostar (Dish Network), their anti-signal theft initiatives had, until recently, primarily taken two forms: prosecution of both sellers and resellers of devices and prosecution of end users who have submitted or returned unlawfully modified receivers to Echostar. Recently, however, they are doing electronic monitoring in order to detect unlawful IKS server activity.
This page is divided into two sections:
"Important News" and "General Information"
Important News – From the Law Office of Gary Ruff - all the news your editor considers to be important.
Aug 9, 2005- DTV wins appeal, establishing DTV's right to claim enhanced damages against end user for assembly or modification of device(s). See Directv v. Robson
June 14, 2005- DTV loses end user case. See Directv v. Deskin
May 16, 2005- DTV wins appeal re: 18 U.S.C. § 2511 claim. 4th Circuit reverses lower court's dismissal. See Directv v. Nicholas
Oct 23, 2004- DTV appeals summary dismissal of end user case. See Directv v. Minor
June 15, 2004- 11th Circuit dismisses DTV's 18 U.S.C. § 2512 claim. This is a significant, but very limited, appellate decision against Direct TV. The Court decided that DTV has no civil right of action against those who simply possess pirate devices in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2512. See Directv v. Mike Treworgy [It is important to note that this decision has no effect upon DTV's right to prosecute civil claims against those who unlawfully intercept their signal or traffic in devices.]
June 3, 2004- Judge has discretion in awarding damages pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 2520. See Directv Inc. v. Michael Brown. [It should be noted this is an 11th Circuit (Alabama, Florida, Georgia) case. This issue remains unresolved in both the 2nd and 3rd Circuits (New York, Connecticut, Vermont, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Virgin Islands. That is: some judges make awards pursuant to the section (perhaps because they believe it mandatory); some do not.
Mar 3, 2004- Beware of high statutory damage claim DTV (and Echostar) has recently made pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 605(e)(4). Echostar (and occasionally Directv) now take the position that a modification of the "access card" is a violation of 47 U.S.C. § 605(e)(4). If you study 47 U.S.C. § 605(e)(3)(C)(i)(II) you will see that the minimum statutory damages for each violation of 47 U.S.C. § 605(e)(4) is $10,000.00, while minimum statutory damages pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 605(a) is $1,000.00. Although I believe this claim can be successfully defended on the merits, you must now be extremely careful not to permit a case against you to go into default. That is: if a Complaint against you contains this claim, you absolutely must Answer and defend.

Oct 9, 2003 An observation on the "class action" against DTV: Briefly put, the civil RICO class action against Direct TV alleges that the "Demand Letter" campaign, based upon insufficient and uncorroborated evidence, is tantamount to organized extortion, forcing people to pay enormous penalties that are unrelated to Directv's actual damages. (You can download a copy of the Complaint , as filed in the Central District of California.) Apparently, all of this has not been lost on DTV. I note that memberships of record at pirate websites (DTV has seized records from several former sites) are occasionally being set forth to corroborate their allegations as to "device" purchases- and they appear to be consistent in following up the demand letters with lawsuits (even when marginal cases are involved). Accordingly, your editor is compelled to the conclusion that Direct TV has taken a decision that the best defense is a good offense (which in this case it probably is). Certainly, the issuance of threatening "Demand Letters" without a demonstration of DTV's willingness to follow-up and prove their position in court would make their legal defense of the civil RICO class action considerably more difficult.
Sept 4, 2003 Defendant's motion to dismiss DTV's complaint for "failure to state a claim" is denied. DTV is to have the opportunity to prove its case. Download DTV v. Cardona.
July 31, 2003: DTV re-dux. Judge in Karpinsky case (immediately below) reinstates dismissed DTV case.

June 17, 2003: Judge summarily dismisses DTV case against non-subscriber who purchased two (2) "Smartcard Recovery Systems". Download DTV v. Karpinsky
June 11, 2003: Settlement alert- use extreme caution. Direct TV has made recent and major changes in the terms of their proposed SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE (which issues from their office in El Segundo, California). It is clear to me that these changes have three goals: to effectively eliminate any class action claim the end user may have; to change the location for any future judicial proceeding against you from the state where you reside to California (a major logistical advantage to DTV); and they have modified their terms to make it much easier to recommence prosecution of you (even if the settlement sum has been paid in full). The current boilerplate of the agreement expresses important points in inscrutable legalese. Considerable legal training is required to fully understand it.

General Information:
You should know that a successful lawsuit against an individual for in home unauthorized decryption can potentially result in a judgment for $10,000.00 (and possibly very much more if the pleading requests damages pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 605(e)(3)(C)(i)(II)) for each violation, plus mandatory attorney fees and full costs. Importantly, the relevant statutes set forth both civil and criminal penalties. As a lawyer with considerable experience in defending signal-theft cases, and with the understanding that I have oversimplified the issues a little bit, I offer you the following observations:
Two preliminary notes:
The referenced U.S.C. sections herein demand careful reading: among other things, they are a composite of both criminal and civil violations and actual and statutory damages. Fortunately, the LII (legal information institute) sets forth the statutes in an indented fashion that is inclined to make the task of reading easier (at least visually). Your editor expresses his gratitude to them for their public service in permitting "links".
The remarks on this page are addressed only to satellite signal theft cases.
In essence, either Directv's or Echostar's lawsuit is saying this: You acquired and used pirate devices to engage in unauthorized reception of our encrypted signals; it's illegal; we suffered economic injury; we want damages, and we want a court to tell you to stop it.
Signal theft from Directv (and varying with the means deployed, Dish Network) is about the "access card" or "CAM", which is a programmable computer chip imbedded in a card (generally referred to as a "smart-card"). Satellite service providers change or modify their data streams (and their corresponding "access cards") with some regularity. For example: to date, DTV has deployed five different generations (designated by DTV as "periods") of "access cards" and corollary data-streams. At present, DTV has taken down its "Period 3" ("Hu Card") data stream, leaving its "Period 4" stream (and a later "Period 5" version), which as of the date of this revision (08/01/07) continues to be a significant challenge to the hacking community. Data-stream switchovers are an initiative that is calculated to defeat piracy.
Although it should be regarded as outdated as to the specific technology deployed, the following still remains of value as an aid to understanding the law. Accordingly, your editor has both indented it and set it forth in smaller font:
I believe it improves understanding to divide unauthorized initiatives into two classes: "primary initiatives" and "secondary" or "supportive" initiatives. I consider the following to be "primary initiatives":
The use of access cards that have been programmed (without authorization) to decrypt encrypted signals. This programming had been done professionally or by the end-user through the use of various devices such as: "loader" or "programmer" ("reader-writer").
Substitutes for the "access card" such as:
"Emulation", which requires the use of three devices ("emulator board", card-reader, and computer with two serial ports) to "emulate" what the access card's microchip does. Or, in the Echostar venue, devices that simulate the access card, such as the "Atmega"
In order to understand a "supportive initiative", you need first to know that signal providers use electronic initiatives known as ECM's (Electronic Countermeasures) to disable unauthorized cards and software. A "supportive" initiative is an effort to rehabilitate an access card that has succumbed to an ECM. This is the application for devices such as the "unlooper" and "boot-loader". As some "unloopers" can be utilized to read/write "access cards", they can also be utilized for the card-reading function of the emulation process.
In any event, I make the distinction between "primary" and "secondary" initiatives for the following reason: As to damages, "duration" of illegal activity (the length of time for which unauthorized reception continued) is a major issue. If the court determines that unauthorized reception took place, it will then greet the issue of damages (what this is going to cost you). The delivery of a "primary initiative" device will frequently (but not necessarily) mark when the unlawful activity commenced (which means that it tends to limit "duration"). On the other hand a court determination of unauthorized reception involving a "secondary initiative" device (implying an effort to rehabilitate a debilitated device) carries with it an inference of unlawful reception that occurred before the "secondary initiative" device arrived, therefore making the commencement of the "duration" period open ended.
Title 47 U.S.C should not be confused with Title 18 U.S.C. They are separate titles; each with it's own set of civil and criminal penalties; and importantly, each with a differing Statute of Limitations period and differing means for calculating the accrual thereof.
The 18 U.S.C. sections referred to in the correspondence from Directv are within sections commonly referred to as the "Wiretap Act" (including, but not limited to: 18 U.S.C. § 2511; 18 U.S.C. § 2512; 18 U.S.C. § 2520) The "Wiretap Act" is a lengthy piece of legislation which provides both criminal and civil penalties for surreptitious interception of certain communications, including satellite communications, and for the distribution or possession of associated equipment or devices.
The idea that Direct TV has no right of civil action pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 2512 ("the manufacture, distribution, possession of …intercepting…devices") is winning wide, but not universal acceptance*. See Directv v. Mike Treworgy . However, the viability of Direct TV's right of civil action pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 2511 (unauthorized interception or use of the signal) is not disputed. Very importantly: even if unauthorized reception can be proved, there is not necessarily identity between the number of "pirate access devices" in issue and the "device" count which may be a determining factor in (47 U.S.C. § 605(a)) civil damages.
*The variations in case law and differences in the interpretation of federal statutes can be credited to the organization of the federal court system into three levels: Supreme Court, Circuit Courts, and District Courts; a Circuit Court having appellate jurisdiction only over the District Courts within the Circuit. By way of relevant example, take the Bertram case: Bertram was decided in the District of Minnesota, which is in the Eighth Circuit. If DTV elects to appeal the decision, the appeal will be heard by the Eighth Circuit. If the Eighth Circuit affirms, the precedent will be binding on all District Courts within the Eighth Circuit, but not the other Circuits. Only the Supreme Court can bring uniformity to all of the various Circuits- and very few cases are accepted for review by the Supreme Court.
47 U.S.C. § 605(e)(3)(C)(i)(II) provides statutory damages of $10,000.00 to $100,000.00 per violation (per device) for manufacture, modification or distribution of devices. Please mark it well that in the "Title 47" venue, "distribution" damages are available without the need to prove unauthorized reception of the signal. Moreover, the statutory test for distribution is disassociated from the making of a profit. Here follows the actual excerpt from the statute:
Any person who manufactures, assembles, modifies, imports, exports, sells, or distributes any electronic, mechanical, or other device or equipment, knowing or having reason to know that the device or equipment is primarily of assistance in the unauthorized decryption of satellite cable programming, or direct-to-home satellite services, or is intended for any other activity prohibited by subsection (a) of this section, shall be fined not more than $500,000 for each violation, or imprisoned for not more than 5 years for each violation, or both. For purposes of all penalties and remedies established for violations of this paragraph, the prohibited activity established herein as it applies to each such device shall be deemed a separate violation. 47 U.S.C. § 605(e)(4) [editors note: together with a right of civil action for the damages referenced above]
Although they are latecomers to civil litigation against end users, Echostar (Dish Network) typically does not claim pursuant to Title 18; their end-user claims generally are made pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 605 and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act §§ 1201(a)(1)(A) and 1201(a)(2) and (b)(1)
A decision as to whether to seek an immediate discontinuance based upon error or insufficient evidence; await a lawsuit; settle; or having been sued, to litigate or settle, is driven by three basic considerations:
An understanding of your legal position, which requires a competent professional evaluation of the factual circumstances associated with your individual situation;
if a decision to settle is taken, in return for the settlement sum you will receive a "release"- the importance of the terms of which cannot be over emphasized;
the settlement sum, which is negotiable- if in fact settlement is recommended.
In any event, this is what I do. If you elect to become a client it will be my pleasure to both advise and represent you in accordance with the terms of my Retainer Agreement. This Agreement can be downloaded below.
[As end-user cable cases and end-user satellite lawsuits are close cousins (although there are significant distinctions which, generally speaking, make a satellite case more complicated than a cable case) you may find the information available at our sister site .pirateboxblues.com/ to be instructive.]
The Law Office of Gary Ruff presents the preceding as a public service. Gary is experienced in defending against cable and satellite TV company claims for signal theft, including unauthorized decryption and illegal or unauthorized possession of decoding equipment. His experience and familiarity with the subject, together with "economies of scale"* permit him to provide these services for very reasonable fees.
If you are anywhere in the U.S.A, contact Gary Ruff. He knows what to do.
* For example: the vast majority of necessary court papers, discovery demands, and motions used in defending these claims are already in our computers. When that is the case, we don't have to charge you to research and write a new document; instead, we charge you considerably less to edit and submit the one in our files.

Excellent information in the lawyers post but it is comparing apples to oranges. The post refers to use of modified boxes. The letter sent out refers to those that bought service through Dark Angel's PS. Not sure if that lawyer can help anyone in that position.

Four members of the House of Representatives have introduced legislation to reign in the power granted by the Patriot Act to the investigative tool known as the National Security Letter (NSL). The National Security Letters Reform Act of 2009 would return the issuing requirements of NSLs to pre-9/11 requirements. This has been hailed by the ACLU at the same time as they have launched their own website calling for reform of the Patriot Act.
For those who might not recall, libraries and library systems have been long wary of the enhanced powers of NSLs. It came to a full conflict in the case of Library Connection v Gonzales in which a library consortium challenged both the gag order and the records sought. It ended with the government withdrawing the NSL and lifting the gag order. You can read more about it here.

Great taste but crust needed to be cooked longer. Also all their beers where from Italy Found something I liked which was fun. Not planning to go back soon.
Posted by Holly on 04/29/2012
Seriously, try the deep fried pizza or "pizza frite". It's simple, clean and delicious. There is minimal sauce in it, incredible mozzarella that is made homemade from the restaurant and the crust is not too greasy but a great texture. I've also tried their butternut squash pizza and the prosciutto pizza - delish. And they deliver, major plus.

Not big into Italian however I crave the mozzarella here it's incredible. The pizzas are excellent too and complement the cocktails nicely.

I had two friends visiting from out of town and they were in the mood for Pizza. I have my favorite spots, but I decided to try Don Antonio. I live nearby and the reviews here were pretty good, so why NOT. The place was almost empty but the waiter sat us right next to their work station, so we had a parade of waiters going back and forth by the side of our table to fetch stuff from the shelves to set the tables or charge CCs. Took forever for the waiter to take our order and he barely spoke English or was able to explain the menu properly (which is VERY extensive). We decided on two different pizzas and one appetizer. The appetizer (caprese salad) was ok, not great, but there is not much to ruin on a caprese salad, right? The pizzas arrived and they were nice looking. My friend ordered one with arugula, mozzarela and prosciutto. I decided to order the Vegetarian one, which was good but lacking a bit of seasoning for my taste. So....here is where their customer appreciation for business really sucks! I asked the waiter to bring me some parmesan cheese for my vegetarian pizza and HE REFUSED to! I could not believe that he was telling me I could not have cheese over my pizza, right in front of me, on my plate. I thought my friend didn't ask properly for the cheese, so I called him and asked WHY I could not get some parmesan cheese - I asked in Spanish because I thought he misunderstood my friend's request. He said to me I could not have any cheese - mind you, the parmesan bowl was sitting just few feet away behind the kitchen counter - because that was their rules. I went on explaining that I am the customer and they should be gracious and bring the cheese to my table and sprinkle my pizza. As a business, their objective is to please their customers. But no, he said I was not allowed to modify the pizza, their restaurant is napolitan style and the owner don't want customers to change the pizzas. Again, I did explain that I was not modifying anything, they cooked the pizza the way they wanted....and I just wanted a bit of freaking parmesan cheese! At this point, I was really upset and told him that I was going to come home and write a bad review of their place and I was not going to return. I even said to him, no wonder this restaurant is empty with lots of empty tables. When the bill came, I told him I would review and tell people to bring their own parmesan cheese if they want on their pizzas! Good pizza but I will not return

For years this space was a Thai restaurant that I never stepped foot in. So when it closed, I had no real hopes that something worthwhile would take its place and motivate me to walk around the corner and make it a destination to bring friends and family alike. Turns out I was more than pleasantly surprised by everything from the food to the lovely staff. My only suggestion would be to dim the lights just a bit. Otherwise, primo!
Posted by William on 03/01/2012
Pizza is as good as I'd thought it would be. Leave room for dessert. The tiramisu looks like crap, tastes like heaven.
Posted by soozy on 02/25/2012
Ate there last night, I am so used to eating good food my whole life, being a native New Yorker. I was very satisified with my dinner before the play I was going to. The menu was extensive and you can tell that they were very up to date with current italian food and pizza, Burrata, which I didnt have and very rarely see on menus... Anyway, my salad was outstanding, and room temp. I will never eat a cold salad where you cant taste flavor. The mozzerella was very fesh and delicious. We ordered 2 margharita pizzas, one reg and one gluten free, They were both excellent, with fresh mozz. and basil and sauce, baked to perfection. I have had gluten free pizza before, this was wonderful. And macchiato was so yummy. I would definitely go back again.

It's a fact – puppets talking about dirty grown up things is funny. In these two sketches, these puppets talk about penises, Satan and AIDS. Hey, that's pretty funny.
This mini showcase features two sketches by the Puppethead Players. Each sketch is basically made up of a simple joke – set up, punchline, done.
Alright, there's been funnier dirty puppet movies than this one, in fact, this one isn't even that dirty and it really just serves as filler between a couple of films at the "Tromadance" festival. It's fairly entertaining filler at that, but I think the best filler ever devised by man is the dancing Aquman between shows on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim block of programming. Now, that's something I could watch on an endless loop until I swallow my tongue. Puppets are cool, but Aquaman standing in front of a dumpster, shaking his ass to some cheesy techno tune is high-class comedy. Anyone wanna be my friend, now? I make a great dutch oven and I can quote "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" better than anyone.

Dear Susie,
It is easy to see that Teddy's behavior was inappropriate when called out by the judges for his poor dessert. However, Debbie deserves to share some of the responsibility. She really didn't give Teddy much of a choice to go ahead with this dessert. If she had to deal with store-bought pudding, I highly doubt that she would have come up with anything better. Plus, her calling out someone else on a lack of integrity is laughable. When will you all realize what a mistake it would be to give Debbie her own show??
My Favorite is Jeffrey. I already feel a connection with him because he has an openness about him and is comfortable looking directly into the camera as if he were talking just to me. And, he has the cooking skills and the creativity to mix up tastes from different areas of the world.
I am not one of the people fond of the family references – or having family and friends on the program. It seems very exploitive to me. I don't mind the cooking with guest chefs or even viewers who have questions, but dragging family members into the show doesn't make me connect more to the chef. Again, exploitation.
Think you sent the wrong person home.
I was shocked that you kept the rude
dude Teddy. Twice or thrice he has been
rude, downright mean and a nanny, nanny,
nanny. -
I agree with you Susie, Teddyeddie should have both gone home. I know the rules made you choose one and given that Eddie made the worst food of the two then he was the "right" choice to go. I like Melissa and admire her skills despit her lack of expertise. I am a good home cook also and am always happy when people appreciate my cooking besides she has a good screen presence. I like Jeffery but he seems a little lost outside the kitchen. Also his screen presence is not as intruiging as say Melissa's, Jamyka's or Michael's.
Debbie again proved that she is so manipulative and she will do anything make herself win. She left no choice for Teddy but to make a desert out of her store bought pudding and gave him no time for desert. I was surprised watching them cooking that Teddy was actually the only one making meat loaf while Debbie spent all her time in making her solo dish shine. What a betrayal. she got poor sportsmanship if any, no ethics, no morals or zero tolerance.
I do not understand why Michael is still there..I'm not fond of overweight unattractive,bearded men refering to themselves as a "madwoman" He isn't even that good Jeffery bailed him out.
I absolutely don't remember Teddy throwing Melissa under the bus during the evaluation in episode 2. However, I'm shocked by his behavior in episode 3. How actually did he self-destruct in episode 3?
I am curious to know…
Are these finalists "judged" undercertain criteria with a scoring system- as like that of Iron Chef (creativity, taste, and plating)- or is this purely a subjective discussion- between and among Bob, Bobby, Susie and other FN Stars– that results in some sort of consensus as to who stays and who is eliminated?
Thank you for providing a Reality Show that is enjoyable and not total trash. In fact this has to be one of the classiest reality shows on TV. Love it.
While I sort of like Melissa, her tarts from episode one look like a Martha Stewart recipe, I have been making them for years. So, if originality of recipes is a requirement, she has so far had two that weren't hers.

Khamûl was one of the nine Ringwraiths, second only to the Witch-king himself. He was called Sauron's lieutenant, "Shadow of the East", [1] and "the Second Chief" or "the Black Easterling"[2]. He was a king of Easterlings before being given one of the Nine Rings. It was said that, after the Witch-king, Khamûl was most ready to perceive the presence of the One Ring, but that his power was most confused and diminished by daylight. He was the only Ringwraith whose name was known.
In T.A. 2951 Khamûl took command of the fortress of Dol Guldur after Sauron's return to Mordor.[3] It was he who asked Hamfast Gamgee for "Baggins" the day after Frodo Baggins had left Hobbiton and pursued the Hobbits to Bucklebury Ferry in the Shire some days later.[2]
Following the destruction of the One Ring, Khamûl perished with the rest of the Ringwraiths.[4]

- Laying the Foundation for a Bright Future
Assessing Progress Under Phase 1 of India's National Solar Mission
Report - From tentative beginnings, India's solar energy market is picking up steam. From 17.8 megawatts (MW) in early 2010, cumulative installed capacity reached 506.9 MW at the end of March 2012. The Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (NSM or Mission), launched in 2010, has catalyzed much of this growth. Even with 300 sunny days a year in most regions, creating a new solar energy market in India is no easy task.
- Chile's Clean Energy Future
Biomass, Biogas, Geothermal, Small Hydro, and Wind are Affordable Choices Now and Solar is Not Far Behind
Fact Sheet - Chile can meet its demand in the coming decades through a variety of "non-conventional renewable energy" (NCRE) sources and energy efficiency technologies supplementing its existing generation base. But this will only be possible if Chile strengthens its renewable energy and energy efficiency policies to remove existing barriers and more effectively promote these sectors.

So, as twelve days of darkened rooms and back-to-back films draws to a close with the end of the 66th Edinburgh International Film Festival, now comes the time for quiet reflection and analysis of this year's event.
Certainly the buzz seems to be largely positive with the sense of a film festival finding its feet again and regaining confidence after an unfocused event in 2011. Gone are the lecture theatres and air of disappointment which prevailed last year replaced by films in actual, proper cinemas and a feeling of composure exemplified by new Artistic Director, Chris Fujiwara (or, as Twitter has dubbed him, #TheMightyFujiwara).
It was a brave decision to open the festival with a film like William Friedkin's Killer Joe. It's a queasy, 18-rated drama with more than a few scenes of stomach-churning violence – not quite the kind of thing the genteel environs of the grand Edinburgh Festival Theatre are used to. The presence of Friedkin as well as one of the glamourous stars of the film, Gina Gershon (who, unbelievably, turned fifty the week before the premiere) added an instant feeling of prestige that was deemed surplus to requirements the year before.
Ironically less brave but a more impressive coup, the closing film was Disney-Pixar's Scottish-set animation, Brave; a guaranteed crowd pleaser. It boasted its Scottish stars Kelly Macdonald, Robbie Coltrane, Craig Ferguson and Kevin McKidd on the red carpet as well as Scotland's First Minister Alex Salmond.
A full month before the film opens in Scotland on August 3rd; it presented a chance for families and film fanatics alike to see the highly-anticipated film well in advance of everyone else. In this 'Year of Creative Scotland' this was a fitting film to finish on with its blend of adventure and timeless folksiness, which is absolutely stunning to look at. Although produced in Pixar's home of Emeryville, California it's clear the makers have spent time in Scotland and consulted locals on the use of phrases like "tumshie" – not to mention the bound-to-be-enduring, "A princess doesnae doodle!"
Scotland was also represented in star stakes with the arrival of Robert Carlyle, whose new drama California Solo made an appearance at the festival. Although a recent operation on a nasal polyp precluded him from taking part in his advertised Bafta interview, he was there to support the premiere of his film and available to take questions there.
With the presence of two heroically avuncular figures in the form of Elliott Gould and Jim Broadbent, who stuck around for much of the festival as jury heads, there was a nice mix of on-stage talent to share behind-the-scenes tales on some high profile films as well as providing a glimpse into their working practices.
The most important question you can ask of any film festival is whether or not the films themselves were any good. Pleasingly, the answer is mostly yes. While there were far fewer recognisable names scattered throughout the films there was a sense of wonderment about the possibilities.
The films were mainly unknown quantities and it's a big ask for audiences to take risks like this when stumping up their hard-earned cash. It seemed that audiences were willing to embrace the more esoteric and take chances on things that they had never heard of.
Films with silly titles and even sillier concepts quietly pleased fans of genre film. Irish sci-fi Grabbers was an example of a simple premise (aliens invade an isolated community) with an abundance of great ideas that playfully toyed with stereotypes (the aliens are allergic to alcohol in the blood) and satisfied in the splatter stakes with some astounding effects on a budget.
Danish/Canadian black comedy Eddie – The Sleepwalking Cannibal does exactly what the title suggests. It's got buckets of gore but also manages to fit in a sweet undertone about humanity's reliance on other people as well as musing on artistic ambition. On the other hand Guinea Pigs, V/H/S and Lovely Molly ranged from acceptable to terrible and really split critical opinion.
Fans of Scandinavian dramas were better served with riotous crime dramas (Jackpot, based on a story by Jo Nesbø) to attempts at era-defining epic criminal arcs (Iceland's Black's Game). Fans of the quirkier side of Scandinavian humour should have been equally pleased with the touching Either Way from Iceland and Sweden's Flicker.
The unexpected is one thing but it was often the hot tips that failed to deliver. Pusher, based on the Danish film of the same name by Drive-director Nicolas Winding Refn, was eagerly anticipated but failed to live up to the hype. Similarly prestige films from respected directors and with a semblance of star wattage, such as Clive Owen in Shadow Dancer, didn't deliver on their promise.
Instead it was low-budget British drama Unconditional that hit the mark with a coming of age tale laced with an emotionally complex relationship drama, which featured a spellbinding lead performance from relative newcomer Harry McEntire.
After much discussion on social networks and on the streets of Edinburgh, the Surprise Movie was revealed to be Lawless. With a screenplay and score by Nick Cave and featuring one of the hottest casts imaginable right now (Tom Hardy, Shia LaBeouf, Jessica Chastain, Gary Oldman, Guy Pearce, Mia Wasikowska) it was an enjoyable if unspectacular prohibition-era crime drama which seemed to please some more than others - mostly fans of Tom Hardy's cardigan wearing abilities.
Documentaries frequently showed exactly what the genre is capable of. Fun but slight roller derby doc, Leave It on the Track, left you with a smile on your face, while The Ambassador, an ambitious fact/fiction hybrid about diplomatic corruption in Africa, made interesting points but never properly nailed exactly what it was aiming for.
In the end it was a documentary which ended up scooping the Michael Powell Award for best British feature. One Mile Away, a crusading documentary about rival gangs in Birmingham, was a shock upset to the hotly tipped documentary The Imposter and psycho-drama Berberian Sound Studio.
Things are looking promising for next year with the foundations that have been laid. Chris Fujiwara, whose contract officially ends in September, is eager to return and, based on the acclaim he received this year, there's no reason to think he won't.
It has been great to see you back on your feet, EIFF. Now the countdown begins for June 2013…

PHOENIX -- Chrysler debuted the all-new 2011 Chrysler 200 at the Los Angeles Auto Show last week and the new mid-sized sedan is expected to arrive in Arizona Chrysler dealerships early next month. The 200 is an entirely new nameplate for Chrysler; it will replace the Sebring, which first joined Chrysler's lineup in 1996.
Despite some aesthetic similarities, the transition from Sebring to 200 is more than just a name change for the number-three U.S. automaker. Virtually every system in the 200 is new or upgraded giving this newcomer its own identity and space in the highly competitive mid-sized sedan segment.
The Chrysler 200 is equipped with a new powertrain lineup, which features the 2.4-liter I-4 World Gas Engine mated to either a four-speed or six-speed automatic transaxle. It is also available with the new 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine, which produces 283 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque mated to a six-speed automatic transaxle.
According to Chrysler, the 200 will also offer an improved ride, sharper handling and an extensively upgraded treatment for the reduction of noise and vibration.
The Chrysler 200 is built at Chrysler's Sterling Heights Assembly Plant in Sterling Heights, Michigan and began arriving in dealerships in the fourth quarter 2010.
