FX, Louis C.K. Delay 'Louie' Season 4 to Spring 2014
The series will not return in the summer but instead return in May and allow the Emmy-winning star, writer, editor and director more time to bring back the vibe of the first season.
FX is delaying the return of critical darling Louie from summer 2013 to spring 2014.
During a conference call with reporters Tuesday, FX president and GM John Landgraf announced that Louis C.K. requested and received an extended hiatus between the recently completed third season and the upcoming fourth frame.

"Louie has continued to raise the bar and recharge his batteries. I don't think there's anyone else in business who's produced, starred, directed and edited all but seven episodes … I'm not surprised he needs a bit of a break," Landgraf said.
The stand-up comic will continue on tour this year and will shift his focus to penning the upcoming season in the first-quarter of 2013.

"I want season four to go somewhere new … I'm looking back to when I did the first season and the time I took to do the show and decide which directions to go in and I want that back again," Louis C.K. told reporters. "I want a little breathing room."
"The last three seasons have been a surge of fun stories and it's been great to share all the stuff and I want the show to keep getting better," Louis C.K. said. "I want it to keep being something that comes from somewhere fun and important."

The increased lead time will allow the FX funnyman to focus mostly on writing. "I usually start shooting in March for a June launch and we'll start September or October for a May launch," he said. "I used to shoot, promote and edit all at the same time in June and I think I can do better work if I spread things out."
FX renewed Louie for a fourth season in July. Louis C.K. took home the Emmy this year for writing in a comedy series for his work on the series. As for the show's lead-in once it does return, Landgraf noted Louie's two-season companion wouldn't be joining it.
"I have trust that we will find something amazing, but it won't be Wilfred," Landgraf said, touting the network's Jim Jeffries comedy Legit -- which is due in January.

Tropical hibiscus yellowing
Hi there,
This post is for my mother.
She can't figure out her problem, severe yellowing of the leaves. Also curling of the leaves.
This was purchased at home Depot, and she re potted it when she bought it.
Gets watered about once a week.
I have 2 tropical Hibiscus and they are blooming wonderfully but like above my leaves ate turning yellow at the bottom, I am sure it is due to the extreme heat here in Fl. I am giving them a little more water at night, But I have another problem that i have had with Hardy Hibs, there is a white substance on the entire plant, it looks like plant mites and I have used the soap water mix on one plant , i put it on the plant at night, and it seemed to clear it up, but it is back again, Is there such a thing called plant mites and what can i do,I do not want to use pesticides, I am trying to grow these plants to use for Tea.
hibiscus tend to take a lot of water in any sort of heat, so if your area is getting decent heat, then it needs a good amount of water, especially if its flowing through and not sitting in a container that catches the water. you just want to check that the soil isn't staying too wet between watering. right now mine need to be watered everyday and if it gets really hot twice a day. but increase slowly to see what yours needs.

Over the weekend, China announced it was moving forward with plans for a massive, nationwide cap-and-trade program intended to help combat global warming. Here's why China is doing this now, and what we know about the plan so far.
China is about to go green in a big way.
At least that's what Sun Cuihua, a climate change official with the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), China's main economic planning body, suggested this week. He confirmed that Beijing in 2016 would introduce a nationwide cap-and-trade program, in which carbon emissions are limited and polluters are incentivized to reduce emissions. Meanwhile, the U.S.'s own efforts to pass a similar system nationwide have long been dead in the water.
The Chinese have six pilot cap-and-trade programs that operate in select cities and provinces, which the NDRC trumpeted as part of the country's Policies and Actions for Addressing Climate Change. If fully implemented, the move has the potential to be a significant step for one of the world's largest economies — though important questions remain about the project's future direction.
Are we loosing respect in the world? Do our politicians still deny global warming has a human factor that needs to be addressed. If Congress does not act, what choice do we have?

The Versatility of Chocolate
15 Dec 11
Rose Y. Colón
Have you ever heard of chocolate soap? Or chocolate candles or tea? These artisanal creations are revolutionizing the world of cacao.
These products and others are made by the Slow Food Chontalpa Cacao Presidium. Members of the Presidium celebrated Terra Madre Day with diverse activities, including participating for the first time ever in the Mercado El Cien (Market of One Hundred). Located in the Río de Janeiro Plaza in Mexico City, the market features organic products from the region.
"The market only accepts products produced at maximum 100 miles away; that is why it's called the One Hundred Market. We sell artisanally produced chocolate, toasted cacao beans…basically everything that cacao gives us. For us, it is very important to establish a bridge with the consumer. We want to share information about sustainable farming," said Alma Rosa Garces Medina, the event organizer.
Climate change and plant disease are some of the challenges that cacao producers in Chontalpa Tabasco face.
"Cacao was first exported from Tabasco to the world. Climate change has resulted in stronger 'sures,' hot winds that blow the flowers off the cacao trees. Without a flower there is no fruit, no fruit means no cacao," Garces Medina explained.
Global warming has increased heat and humidity, which results in extreme rapid growth of cacao trees. But faster growing trees pose a big problem to farmers. "Once upon a time, farmers worked for 8 or 9 months out of the year, now they only work for 3 or 4 months," said Garces Medina.
It comes as no surprise that many farmers have abandoned the production of cacao. But Garces Medina has a message for them: "We should not abandon cacao. Cacao is not just a tree; it provides us with dried fruits, vanilla, cinnamon, chilies…and much more. With these products we can make teas, marmalades and many more things."
These factors were on the agenda yesterday at a meeting held at the farm of Rosario Lázaro López in Cárdenas. Forty producers pondered how to overcome challenges in the production of cacao and keep their industry alive.
Garces Medina said she hopes that all of the activities held to celebrate Terra Madre Day inspire farmers and producers to look beyond just making chocolate out of the cacao bean."We do different things to keep producers from getting discouraged. We used our creativity to come up with chocolate soaps, lotions and candles. They are cute and make great Christmas presents."
One of the most recent Presidium creations was chocolate tea, which is made from crushed roasted cacao bean. "That way you maintain the aroma but none of the fat," Garces Medina explained.
Garces Medina said her biggest wish is to preserve the tradition of cacao in her Presidium. "Chocolate has always held our hand along the way. We will do everything possible to ensure its sustainable production."
Chocolate from the Slow Food Presidium of Chontalpa Tabasco is well known around the world, especially in Europe.

I would be lost without my planner. I do miss the day of the year that the Monticello design includes, but overall performance of the franklin design has no challengers in my opinion.

I use this as a food journal. It is great for tracking daily food and calorie intake. I also have plenty of room to jot down inspirational quotes, how I was feeling that day, etc. The zippered case that holds these pages is great for keeping all my weight loss items together an organized. So glad I bought this item.

Love these chairs - and the rubber tips which don't scratch up my wood floors.Read More
very sturdy!
I was pleasantly surprised at the packaging the chairs arrived in. All in one piece but very well wrapped. No scratches or dents. The other reviewer was correct, the chairs are a bit small, but both my husband and father in law, who are approximately 6 feet and 200 pounds, don't seem to have a problem sitting in them. The color is very accurate to what is pictured. And you can't beat the price! As a family of 6, I can see that these will stand up to our active lives.Read More
Awesome Chairs!
Awesome chairs - solid, heavy and arrived fully assembled! That provide a great rustic or industrial look. I bought 1 set of 4 first to really test them out, then a year later after seeing how well they have held up I bought a second set! Great price for 4 chairs, absolutely can't beat the durability, stability, look and price.Read More
What I Was Looking For
I purchased these chairs to go with a Crate & Barrel table that were styled with similar metal chairs at 4X the price. Overall, I'm happy with the Tabouret chairs--they are exactly what I was looking for at the price I wanted to stay in. I specifically wanted stackable chairs, as our dining room is tiny and we won't have them out unless entertaining, so these were a perfect solution for our budget. I don't know that we'll keep them forever--as many other reviewers have noted, the chairs are on the small side. My husband and I primarily bought the dining table to entertain, and I suspect that some of our guests will find the chairs a little tight. We may eventually purchase chairs with a larger seat and/or no curved backing to allow for a more comfortable sit. Regarding comfort, after reading others' suggestions I purchased 4 chair pads for these. I actually found the chair pad obnoxious and took mine off. My husband liked it and kept it on. Clearly, a matter of preference. Shipping was quick and the chairs were well-packed so they arrived unscathed. Overall, I got exactly what I was looking for, so I'm pretty pleased!Read More
Great chairs!
They are chic and stylish. I am using them in a restaurant. They are sturdy but small. Very stylish and the color is exactly as shown online. They arrived only a few days after ordering. Very good value for the money.Read More
Nice chair for the money
Nice chair for extra seating in my industrial loft. A little cold to the bum but very chic. Sturdy and level - no teetering. Excellent quality, nice thick paint and love the color.Read More

These chairs are great and look awesome in my apartment. Last night I went to a cool, trendy dinner and drinks spot downtown and they actually had these exact same chairs in the restaurant except they were red and distressed which I thought was pretty cool.Read More
Attractive Design

What is the main difference between the black & charcoal version of this chair? Is it more of a finish (matte vs gloss) or is it a distinct color difference? The photos make it look like the charcoal is black but matte...thanks!
Hello dreamowl, the black is a glossy finish, it is also a darker true black. The charcoal grey is a very dark grey shade and is more of a matte finish. Thanks for shopping with us!

An Act of Love
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, a potential 2016 presidential candidate, rankled fellow Republicans when he called for a more sympathetic look at illegal immigration. "Speaking at the George Bush Presidential Library and Museum, he said, "Yes, they broke the law, but it's not a felony; it's an act of love and an act of commitment to your family. It's a different kind of crime. It shouldn't rile people up that people are coming to provide for their family."

YOUTH AVOIDERS is probably the best new french hardcore band, they consists of 3/4 parisians and 1/4 german. They play 80's influenced punk rock, their sound will make you think of some Canadian/Deranged stuff like Vicious Cycle as well as german punk acts such as Dean Dirg or Press Gang, this is smart catchy and very energetic garage hardcore punk. Their music is a fresh and urgent hardcore punk, with a clean and vicious guitar sound that brings the already good riffs to a even higher level.

- Transitional Boundaries
- The proposal for the design is to create a dormitory that both extends the urban street environment into the building, while permeating the interior environment out into the city. Rather than a delineating threshold between spaces, spaces are experienced by procession with transitional spaces that blur the boundaries.
The plaza space celebrates the transition from school to living, while allowing students to interact with the street and experience the unique urban setting.private spaces are filtered by the service core.
[Temporary Living VS Permanent Living]The design responds to the social and diverse lifestyle of college life.The building incorporates the ideals of dormitory design (temporary living) with the comfort of having (a home).
Sleeping and bathing are essentially private while, service areas (pods) are shared between few private rooms liKE the kitchen, digital, laundry, etc to promote interaction. Community areas are shared per floor with the intent for students to be able to make the space flexible to their preferences.

After Earthquake, Chinese Seek Out Private Charities for Their DonationsApril 22, 2013 6:00 PM
Share with others:
BEIJING – The devastating earthquake that struck southwest China last weekend has drawn a flood of donations from across the country.
But in contrast to the pattern after a major quake in the same region five years ago, those eager to bolster relief efforts are looking to donate to private charity organizations, not to official groups that now have a reputation for corruption.
The Red Cross Society of China, a state-run organization that is one of the country's largest charities, has yet to recover from a 2011 scandal that struck a serious blow to China's nascent notions of philanthropy, especially philanthropy guided by the government.
"Compared to the opaque system that most state-supported charity organizations have, nongovernmental organizations and the newly emerged so-called micro-charities follow a more transparent system," said Deng Guosheng, director of the NGO Research Center at Tsinghua University in Beijing.
On its microblog, the Red Cross said that as of 5 p.m. Sunday, it had received more than $10 million. One private group, Sina Micro-charities, reported collecting more than $13 million, according to Global Times, a state-run newspaper.
On Monday, relief and rescue efforts continued in the broad area around Ya'an in Sichuan Province, the epicenter of an earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 7 that struck Saturday morning. The Ministry of Civil Affairs announced Monday that at least 188 people had been killed, while 25 were missing and nearly 12,000 had been injured. The quake had affected 1.72 million people, the ministry said. Rescuers on foot finally reached Baoxing County, the area hardest hit by the quake, at 1 p.m. Monday.
The Civil Affairs Ministry also "asked charity groups to regulate donations intended for Sichuan, calling for transparency and social supervision," according to China Daily, an English-language newspaper. The report said the ministry had issued a statement that said groups organizing donation drives for quake victims "should publicize information about their activities and donation incomes in accordance with existing regulations."
China has a few flashy philanthropists, most notably the recycling magnate Chen Guangbiao, and a handful of prominent private charities, including One Foundation, founded by Jet Li, the kung fu film star. But the notion of giving to worthy causes is less widespread than in the West. In 2010, Warren Buffett and Bill Gates flew to Beijing to encourage philanthropy and invited a select group of tycoons to meet with them; some declined to attend.
But in times of disaster, there are always individuals who rush to give aid. Such was the case with Li Chengpeng, a writer in Sichuan and frequent critic of Communist Party policies. On his microblog, Mr. Li, who was a volunteer relief worker after the 2008 quake, wrote about the experience of organizing donations to the stricken area around Ya'an over the weekend. He said his team had delivered 498 tents and 1,250 cotton quilts to the village of Wuxing on Sunday night.
The high point of recent Chinese philanthropy was touched off by the 2008 earthquake, which ravaged large sections of Sichuan and nearby provinces. About 90,000 people were killed or went missing, and many more were injured. Entire villages were wiped out.
Many Chinese traveled to Sichuan to volunteer. Charities were inundated with donations. By February 2011, the Red Cross Society of China had received about $650 million in donations from within China and abroad for that quake, according to a report on the Web site of China News Service, an official agency.
But the Red Cross became a pariah in the eyes of many Chinese after a scandal two years ago that centered on Guo Meimei, a 20-year-old woman who had posted photographs of herself online posing next to Italian sports cars, hoarding Hermès handbags and flying in business-class cabins. She said on her microblog that she was the "commercial general manager" at the Red Cross. People speculated about whether she had gotten her title by being the mistress of a top Red Cross official. She became the most talked-about subject on the Chinese Internet during those months, and her name invariably comes up in discussions of philanthropy here.
As a result, Chinese are saying on microblogs and other forums that people who want to give to current relief efforts in Sichuan should, without a doubt, avoid the Red Cross.
"It is so sad to see how much a state-run charity organization is struggling; the Red Cross in China evidently has a very low credibility," wrote Xu Shaolin, a frequent commentator on societal issues and politics, on his microblog.
Global Times said in its report on Monday that distrust of the Red Cross had driven many people to make donations through microblog services started by private Internet companies. One of those services, Sina Micro-charities, which began operations in February, had started 29 relief projects by Sunday for Ya'an with the help of individuals and institutions. For those efforts, Sina had collected $13 million from more than 60,000 Internet users, Global Times reported.
Liao Dong, the founder of an online gaming company, donated about $147,000 to one of the projects. He told Global Times that he had chosen that charity because it was "more transparent."
The Red Cross Society of China declined to comment for this article. An executive vice president at the organization told a reporter from Southern Metropolis Daily that there were may online critics who had deep-rooted misunderstandings and prejudices toward the group.

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Rx for Africa, Inc. and Zirus, Inc., have entered into a letter of intent to form ZiRx Therapeutics, Ltd., a joint venture that will utilize the anti-viral discovery platform of Zirus, Inc. to target host cell proteins with drugs that potentially block or stop the spread of infectious diseases in completely new ways. Targeting host proteins may lead to broad spectrum antiviral drugs as well as drugs that are less susceptible to viral resistance. The joint venture will include as many as 25 specifically identified drugs with positive preliminary antiviral data that have been approved in a major territory or are in a Phase III trial in a major territory for a different indication. The strategy is for these target drugs to be 'repurposed' against infectious disease (such as the H1N1 swine flu virus) and brought on the market quickly in Ethiopia through Rx for Africa's Ethiopian manufacturing and distribution capabilities. These drugs can then be produced inexpensively to sell throughout Africa and other available global markets.
David Perryman, President and CEO of Zirus, Inc. said, "Repurposed clinically approved drugs represent an opportunity to skip early and risky stages of drug development and create substantial nearer-term value with time frames that are appropriate to help in Africa, where every day matters. Teaming with Rx for Africa represents a real opportunity to accelerate the drug development process, build infrastructure in Africa, and create a lower-cost platform for these potential life-saving drugs."
Mulugetta Bezzabeh, PhD, CEO of Rx for Africa, Inc. commented, "Rx for Africa is deeply glad to have this opportunity to work on cutting edge science developing cures for infectious viral diseases such as HIV and pandemic flu that have ravaged African populations. Ethiopia has significant potential as a market for such products."<

Gap Between Counter and Wall
retiredprofDecember 20, 2010
I recently moved into a new house and just noticed (hello???) that there's a 1/2" gap between the kitchen counter and the back wall. This is not very apparent or visible at all.
The counter is tiled in 12" stone tiles with an oak frame around the front and the sides. The grout is dark brown which is probably why I didn't notice the gap. I'm guessing that the standard 25" counter depth was a little short even with the grout between the tiles and the frame. Luckily, I haven't spilled anything yet on the counter because it would be a disaster running down the back of the base cabinets.
How do I fix this? More grout back there? But there's no support. A piece of wood molding stained to match the frame? But what kind of molding? Any other ideas?

Just wanted to post some quick pics and give my recommendation to check out Spike Brewing if you're in the market for a new brew pot.
I am a 5 gallon all grain brewer and have owned a number of pots in search for what suits me best: Polarware/Fermentap 32 qt heavy duty stockpot, Penrose Kettle, smaller stainless pots from Webstaurantstore back when I was doing half batches...
I finally decided that a 10 gallon pot suited me best. There would be room if for if I wanted to do an extended boil, and plenty of headspace, and I liked that this Spike Brewing one had a nice finish, nice welds and a lid.
I have not had a chance to brew with this yet, but it will get a brew session soon and I am excited. So far though, I am very happy with the quality and just wanted to show my support. Oh, and I placed my order October 9, got a shipping confirmation at the end of that business day, and it was on my doorstep October 11 am. Nice!
Thank you!
A buddy in my homebrew club has one of these. He's been pretty happy with it as well. Though they may want to think about selling pickups for the inside (have not checked them out, so I don't know if it's an option). I ended up giving my buddy an extra pickup I had so he could actually use the ball valve he had picked up for it!

Sapphire Fiber Evanescent Wave Absorption in Turbid Media
Volume 63, Number 8 (Aug. 2009) Page 932-935
Zhang, Jian; Xiong, Feibing; Djeu, Nicholas
The influence of particulates on sapphire fiber evanescent wave absorption by water has been studied. Suspensions containing micro-sized graphite flakes and glassy carbon powder were used. Conventional free-space transmittance measurements of these samples showed strong absorption and scattering, which severely screened the absorption by water. However, the absorption on the water band determined from the evanescent wave interaction was unaffected by the presence of the graphite flakes. These results indicate that fiber-optic evanescent wave chemical sensors may be suitable for process control applications involving turbid reactor streams.

Literary Terms: A Dictionary
Macmillan, Jun 1, 1989 - Literary Criticism - 308 pages
For all those who have become entangled in the ever-burgeoning sphere of confusing literary terminology, Professors Karl Beckson and Arthur Ganz provide clear and entertaining explanations, in this, their now-classic reference work. From abecedarius to zeugma, they gracefully guide the reader through the intricacies of literary forms and ideas. Over the years, Literary Terms has been revised and enlarged as Professors Beckson and Ganz have added new entries from recent literary theory and scholarship, bringing the total number of entries to over 900. It is an indispensable asset for understanding such concepts as deconstruction, Russian Formalism, feminist criticism, psychoanalytic criticism, semiotics, and the surfeit of others that have emerged in the ongoing process of interpreting literature.
Throughout the text, numerous helpful examples drawn from a multitude of sources—nursery rhymes to Shakespeare—clarify the concepts discussed. In addition, not only the terminology itself but also the historical and philosophical background necessary to a fuller understanding of any work is examined. The result is a readable dictionary that illuminates as much as it delights, providing essential information for the student as well as the professional.

Rooms were clean and well maintained. Staff was quite helpful.
Parking in their lot is additional expense. There is little space to park in front in when checking in.
Great staff
The hotel was beautiful
The hotel was full of screaming children, there were birthday parties going on you could not even get close to the pool. Staff not very friendly
Amazing customer service, even had a employee cleaning snow off all the cars in the nothing. Very impressed!
I kied the location of hotel with a nice view of water
I did not like the free breakfast that was offered? What was offered was not very much and to upgrade to a full breakfast was $7 extra for one egg and toast.
Price was decent compared to other hotels in the area. Hot breakfast included.
It is a bit dated but that can be expected for the price.
Room was freezing, there was literally ice on the heater, which had run all night.Lights flickered constantly in bathroom and also light just outside bathroom.
Great rooms, friendly staff.
Stayed multiple days but there wasn't much variety in breakfast each day.
Location, rooms
Bathrooms in the gym facility looked like something you would expect to see in a basement
Great location on the waterfront. Friendly staff, nice room. Short walk to Open Hearth Park.
Night before staff said they'd upgrade me but didn't. Breakfast is not included and is a massive ripoff-- no big deal as we just went to pubs and diners to eat which are close with great food.
Bed was fiirm and there was a fridge and microwave in room.
Tv reception not great. Hard to get room temp regulated. Garbage at the back entrance was not nice to see.
Location Friendly
Location is great..only 15 min from the Newfoundland ferry. Also has a great view of Kelly's mountain.
Location convenient to all the sites we were visiting. Room number 7 was great. Heather, the owner, was very helpful in providing directions and suggestions for restaurants and arranging our itinerary so we could maximize our time in visiting attractions.
Breakfast was just so so. Needs more variety. When we arrived some of the toiletries were missing from the room however this was soon rectified.
Neat, clean, walking distance to downtown North Sydney, helpful and friendly staff, great breakfast - just an all around great experience.
I liked everything about this B&B
Family run, very clean, new fixtures and furniture. Good feel to the place. We chose to come back here again on our return trip.
Only one minor complaint - strangely, there was no closet or rack to hang anything on.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us
Please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

The Internet got a lot smuttier yesterday as 100,000 plus websites in the newly approved ICANN .XXX top-level domain went live.
Proponents, along with the ICM Registry which owns and regulates the .XXX top-level domain, argue the move makes it easier to avoid adult content as the X's are clear signals about the content.
Critics, however, claim the lack of requirement for providers of adult content to use the .XXX TLD will encourage sexually explicit material to flourish anew in other domains, making it more difficult to restrict, and might even lead to legislation mandating the new triple X domains for 'sexually explicit' content, leading to further litigation about free speech and jurisdiction.
Luxembourg-based Manwin, which manages Playboy.com, YouPorn, xTube, and other sites, recently filed suit against ICANN arguing that .XXX creates a virtual monopoly and adds unnecessary costs to doing business in that space.
"We oppose the .XXX domain and all it stands for. It is my opinion that .XXX domain is an anticompetitive business practice that works a disservice to all companies that do business on the Internet," said Fabian Thylmann, managing partner, Manwin.Continue reading...

A tsunami of opposition to ICANN'S January 2012 expansion of top level domains has resulted in a U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation full committee hearing to "examine the merits and implications of this new program and ICANN's continuing efforts to address concerns raised by the Internet community."
The hearing will be held Thursday, December 8, at 10:00 a.m. EST. Press will be welcomed on a first-come, first-served basis, while the public can virtually attend the Senate Commerce Committee hearing via a webcast.
The opposition of the 100+ brands and organizations in CRIDO (the Coalition for Responsible Domain Oversight) will be presented by the Association of National Advertisers exec team of Bob Liodice, President and CEO; Dan Jaffe, EVP of Government Relations; and Doug Wood, general counsel.
The growing alliance views the gTLD program as "harmful," allowing organizations and companies to apply for generic or branded top level domains (the names to the right of the 'dot,' e.g. .com, .net, .org.), with brands such as Ford, GE and HP concerned about cybersquatting and related issues.Continue reading...

As the January 12th opening of gTLDs (top-level domain names) looms, the Association of National Advertisers president and CEO Bob Liodice is stepping up the organization's campaign against ICANN.
That's the body which is preparing to expand URL names from the current list of 22 approved top-level domains (such as .com, .net, .org, .edu and country suffixes) to include generic .anything names such as .nike, .google, .pepsi, etc.
In a video released this week, Liodice takes issue with ICANN's claim that it has gone through a "laborious process" to gain consensus for its generic top-level domain expansion program, which is facing mounting criticism not just in America.
Liodice (whose views are opposed by Forrester) counters that there are more than 100 organizations and brands standing with the ANA in opposition to what he calls a "harmful program," with brands such as Ford, GE and HP concerned about cybersquatting, among other issues. ICANN, still stinging from the .xxx domain debacle, is recruiting an "independent objector" to assess gTLD applications in a position that would commence in April.

We recently looked at the coalitions of brands joining forces to voice their opposition to how ICANN is ushering in its so-called dotbrand URLs (aka its new gTLD, or generic Top-Level Domain program that lets trademark holders pay for the right to add their brand name to their web addresses, such as .nike or .coke) in January. Now you can add a few more.
The U.S.-based Coalition for Responsible Internet Domain Oversight (or CRIDO) led by the Association of National Advertisers (ANA) has added six major marketers to their ranks, including the world's largest retailer and second-largest food company. Walmart, Kraft Foods, adidas, Reebok, Toyota and the J.M. Smucker Company have joined CRIDO, bringing the total number of companies and industry groups to 93.
"We are very pleased that six more leading marketers representing an extremely broad range of business sectors have joined forces with CRIDO to oppose ICANN's TLD expansion program," commented ANA president and CEO Bob Liodice. "This growing coalition sends a very clear signal that there is serious dissatisfaction with ICANN's program from across the entire Internet stakeholder community."Continue reading...

Overstock.com announced in January that it was rebranding its URL to O.co as a speedier online shortcut to its wares. In June, it unveiled the new name and logo at the O.co Coliseum in Oakland, CA (above) in time for a U2 concert, a signage change that following Overstock's six-year deal in April for naming rights to the home of NFL's Oakland Raiders and the Oakland Athletics MLB franchise.
"Our customers associate 'O' with Overstock.com, which made the transition to O.co seamless. As a Savings Engine, this is the next step in adding more visibility to our shortcut," said Overstock.com Chairman and CEO Patrick Byrne in a press release. "Naming the facility O.co Coliseum demonstrates our commitment to seeing through the execution of the new domain."
"Overstock.com is clearly at the forefront of digital marketing and their decision to use a .CO domain in such a big way, underscores their willingness to lead the market and to disrupt the status quo," commented Juan Diego Calle, CEO of .CO Internet SAS in the same release. "With the exponential growth of mobile commerce, where shaving milliseconds means gaining a strategic competitive advantage, customers around the world can now reach the company's products and services quickly and securely by simply typing O.co — the shortest possible URL in the world."
Now, however, the company is backing off from the new name because customers couldn't find its snappy new URL.Continue reading...

Looking to get fancy with your site's URL? It'll cost you $185,000 to do it.
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the nonprofit group that oversees the Internet's address system, currently has 22 generic endings, such as .com, .edu, and .org. But it will open the doors to applications on Jan. 12 to let sites buy up whatever tags they'd like at a price of $185,000 per URL. (Earlier this week, ICANN opened up .xxx web addresses to all of you in the adult-entertainment industry who have been waiting so patiently.)
Bloomberg BusinessWeek reports, though, that the program "is failing to win over U.S. brand owners."Continue reading...

The imminent change in domain names that will be ushered in by ICANN's new gTLD (generic Top-Level Domain) program is turning into a veritable war.
A last-minute campaign to stop it is being led by the Association of National Advertisers (ANA), which has reached out to the American Association of Advertising Agencies, the Direct Marketing Association, and more than 20 other advertising and marketing organizations to join their protest. They're lobbying Congress and the Commerce Department on the new TLD program, which is scheduled to commence on January 12th, with the ANA telling Adweek they will take their objections to court if necessary.
Separately, another consortium of brands and trademark holders calling themselves CADNA, or the Coalition Against Domain Name Abuse, is hosting a conference today in New York, where they will discuss their concerns and collective proposal to ICANN. With speakers including the VP of legal for DirecTV and the former VP of digital for Mattel, CADNA is taking a less aggressive approach to the issue.Continue reading...
