Apple's U2 'box set' a sign of shifting music pricing?

Apple unveils color iPod, U2 editionOctober 26, 2004
It may be a small, $149 step, but Apple Computer's introduction of a U2 "digital box set"--a downloadable compilation of every song the band has ever recorded--could portend a shift in online-music pricing.
Since the launch of Apple's iTunes store in April 2003, the price of digital music has gravitated, with few exceptions, to 99 cents per song, following the Mac maker's unwavering lead. Apple CEO Steve Jobs has been adamant that a consistent price is important to help consumers understand the new world of online music.
But even as they have been pleased with Apples' iTunes successes, record label executives have chafed at the fixed prices. They're used to the retail world, where some albums can be priced higher than average, and some lower, in order to take advantage of demand.

What do you do with the kid's tiny (but important, to them anyway) little things that they collect? I would love to hear your ideas!
All kinds of trinkets -- from little magnets to golf tees to "special' rocks -- what's a mother to do? Yo-yos, harmonicas, feathers...
Maybe it's just me, but I really struggled with this. How to stay organized and streamlined? Hmm...
Thankfully, the items were small -- stray Lego pieces, fake Civil War buttons, colorful guitar picks, and unique (really?) coins. The "rare" erasers and "one-of-a-kind" airplane pencil sharpeners.
Finally, I got to the point where I sacrificially designated one whole kitchen drawer to be officially named The Discovery Drawer that the family could use for any "collectible" whether it was found outdoors or indoors. The only rule was that nothing living (frogs, bugs, etc.) could be placed in the drawer!
The Discovery Drawer ended up being a conglomeration of natural and man-made items collected until the drawer could hardly close. Then we cleaned it and started all over again. I guess that it worked well, but I'd love to hear how you handle (or handled) this dilemma in your house. Your ideas might encourage other moms!

CRESTVIEW - A driver stopped for not wearing a seatbelt asked an Okaloosa County Sheriff's deputy not to give him a citation because it was Christmas. He was then arrested for marijuana possession.
On Christmas Day a deputy stopped the man on Lloyd Street for not wearing a seatbelt. The man, identified as 22-year-old Matthew Howard McCowen of Crestview, told the deputy he'd just been given a citation for not wearing a seatbelt and could he please not be given another, as it was Christmas.
While speaking with McCowen the deputy noticed a strong odor of marijuana coming from McCowen's car. McCowen said he'd just bought the car from somebody who smoked marijuana.
The deputy asked him to step out of the car and place his hands on the side. Once the deputy got close, the report said, he could smell marijuana on McCowen. McCowen then told him he had a bag of marijuana behind the front waistband of his jeans.
The deputy found a bag of suspected marijuana and a marijuana cigarette. The total was 22 grams.
McCowen was charged with possession of a controlled substance without a prescription. His court date is Feb. 12.

A big thank you to Jessie at AMS Uniforms/Mark Fore (Sales) for extraordinarily blessing our niece on her sweet 16th birthday.
Peggy from Maid Perfect is so, so nice.
On Aug. 29, my wife and I elected to have lunch at the Renaissance Restaurant located on Tillman Road. Following our dining, I expected to find the "ticket" somewhere on our table — and in requesting the item from the waitress, we were informed that our check had already been paid! Fort Wayne has a reputation of having caring and sharing residents, and we remain so thankful and appreciate this gift and wish to thank the donors.
A big thank you to Glen at Bicycles Sales, Service and Repair in New Haven between Hartzell (Road) and the high school. He spent about 10 minutes and fixed my husband's bike and didn't charge me. This is my trying to pay-it-forward.
After a lovely meal with friends on Labor Day at the Bob Evans on Coliseum Boulevard, it became even lovelier when we got to the cashier to pay. She kindly informed us that someone else had paid the bill for all four of us! We were shocked and thrilled! So from two couples who have been friends for 65 years and who are each celebrating our 66th wedding anniversaries, we thank you and ask God to bless you. We will pass this wonderful gesture on to someone else.

Rodong Sinmun Marks Anniversary of Kim Jong Il's Work
| Pyongyang, January 20 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun, a leading newspaper of the DPRK, Friday dedicated an article to the 20th anniversary of General Secretary Kim Jong Il's work "On Juche Literature".
The work raises it as the fundamental problem decisive of the destiny of the Juche-based literature and art to defend and carry forward the tradition of revolutionary literature and art and clarifies the principled matters arising in assessing and developing the national literary and art heritage.
It also gives profound exposition of the important matters arising in further developing the Korean literature under socialist construction going on at the high stage and ways to do so.
For its originality and truth in content, orderly and perfect composition, versatility in sectors, concrete analysis, scientific depth and popularity in description and gemlike propositions, the work "On Juche Literature" serves as the great guideline for building unique and scientific literature, which is beyond comparison with any other works on literary and art theories in the world, the article says, and goes on:
The past two decades since the publication of the work were a period of surge in literary and art creation during which masterpieces stirring the era had been produced in a large number.
Among them are revolutionary and militant songs that can never be exchanged with a colossal amount of food and revolutionary, optimistic and emotional poems consistent with the idea that ordeal and trial is temporary and rosy future is sure to come. They had served as the march of struggle and companion of life for the Korean army and people.
When the DPRK was going through stern trials, its creators composed such songs as declaring that arduous march is sure to be followed by happiness. They loudly eulogized the victory and miracles wrought under the Songun revolutionary leadership of Kim Jong Il.
In the emotion-charged Songun era the literature of the DPRK successfully represented many heroes of the era who have displayed their indomitable mental power with the conviction and faith in socialism and future, and thus recorded in history what the Songun era is.

Sprouting is the practice of soaking, draining and then rinsing seeds at regular intervals until they germinate, or sprout. This can be a semi-automated or fully automated process when done on a large scale for commercial use.
One of the most common sprouts is that of the mung bean (Vigna radiata); another common sprout is the Kala Chana & alfalfa sprout and the barley sprout.
Other seeds that can be sprouted include adzuki bean, almond, amaranth, annatto seed, anise seed, arugula, basil, brown rice, navy bean, pinto bean, lima bean, broccoli, buckwheat, cabbage, canola seed, caragana, cauliflower, celery, chia seed, chickpeas, chives, cilantro (coriander, dhania), clover, cress, dill, fennel, fenugreek, flax seed, garlic, hemp seed, kale, kamut, kat, leek, green lentils, lupins, pearl millet, mizuna, mustard, oats, onion, black-eyed peas, green peas, pigeon peas, snow peas, peanut, psyllium, pumpkin, quinoa, radish, rye, sesame, soybean, spelt, sunflower, tatsoi, triticale, watercress, and wheat berries.
Sprouting is also applied on a large scale to barley as a part of the malting process. Malted barley is an important ingredient in beer and is used in huge quantities.
However, many sprouts are in fact toxic when eaten, like kidney beans. Some sprouts can be cooked to remove the toxin, while others will be toxic either way and should be avoided. So before eating any sprouts, find out if that species is edible as a sprout.
With all seeds, care should be taken that they are intended for sprouting or human consumption rather than sowing. Seeds intended for sowing may be treated with chemical dressings. Several countries, such as New Zealand, also require that some varieties of edible seed be heat-treated, thus making them impossible to sprout.
Many varieties of nuts, such as almonds and peanuts, can also be started in their growth cycle by soaking and sprouting, although because the sprouts are generally still very tiny when eaten, they are usually called "soaks."
Moisture, warmth, and in most cases, indirect sunlight are necessary for sprouting. Some sprouts, such as mung beans, can be grown in the dark. Little time, effort or space is needed to make sprouts.
To sprout seeds, the seeds are moistened, then left at room temperature (between 13 and 21 degrees Celsius) in a sprouting vessel. Many different types of vessels can be used. One type is a simple glass jar with a piece of cloth secured over its rim. 'Tiered' clear plastic sprouters are commercially available, allowing a number of "crops" to be grown simultaneously. By staggering sowings, a constant supply of young sprouts can be ensured. Any vessel used for sprouting must allow water to drain from it, because sprouts that sit in water will rot quickly. The seeds will swell and begin germinating within a day or two.
Sprouts are rinsed as little as twice a day, but possibly three or four times a day in hotter climates, to prevent them from souring. Each seed has its own ideal sprouting time. Depending on which seed is used, after three to five days they will have grown to two or three inches in length and will be suitable for consumption. If left longer they will begin to develop leaves, and are then known as baby greens. A popular baby green is sunflower after 7-10 days. The growth process of any sprout can be slowed or halted by refrigerating until needed.
Common causes for sprouts to turn out inedible:
These problems are easily solved by an automatic sprouter that mists and drains the sprouts at regular intervals. To control temperature, in the winter a warming blanket can be placed under the sprouter, and in the summer small fans in the lid if it's very hot and humid.
Mung beans can be sprouted either in light or dark conditions. Those sprouted in the dark will be crisper in texture and whiter, as in the case of commercially available Chinese Bean Sprouts, but these have less nutritional content than those grown in partial sunlight. Growing in full sunlight is not recommended, because it can cause the beans to overheat or dry out. Subjecting the sprouts to pressure, for example, by placing a weight on top of them in their sprouting container, will result in larger, crunchier sprouts similar to those sold in Polish grocery stores.
A very effective way to sprout beans like lentils or adzuki is in colanders. Soak the beans in hot water for about 8 hours then place in the colander. Wash twice a day. The sprouted beans can be eaten raw or cooked.
Sprouts are rich in digestible energy, bioavailable vitamins, minerals, amino acids, proteins, beneficial enzymes and phytochemicals, as these are necessary for a germinating plant to grow . These nutrients are essential for human health. To clarify, the nutritional changes upon germination & sprouting have been summarized below. Chavan and Kadam (1989) concluded that - "The desirable nutritional changes that occur during sprouting are mainly due to the breakdown of complex compounds into a more simple form, transformation into essential constituents and breakdown of nutritionally undesirable constituents."
"The metabolic activity of resting seeds increases as soon as they are hydrated during soaking. Complex biochemical changes occur during hydration and subsequent sprouting. The reserve chemical constituents, such as protein, starch and lipids, are broken down by enzymes into simple compounds that are used to make new compounds."
"Sprouting grains causes increased activities of hydrolytic enzymes, improvements in the contents of total proteins, fat, certain essential amino acids, total sugars, B-group vitamins, and a decrease in dry matter, starch and anti-nutrients. The increased contents of protein, fat, fibre and total ash are only apparent and attributable to the disappearance of starch. However, improvements in amino acid composition, B-group vitamins, sugars, protein and starch digestibilities, and decrease in phytates and protease inhibitors are the metabolic effects of the sprouting process."
Increases in Plant Enzyme content
According to the naturopath and herbalist Isabell Shipard (Shipard, 2005) -
"Sprouts are a tremendous source of (plant) digestive enzymes. Enzymes act as biological catalysts needed for the complete digestion of protein, carbohydrates & fats. The physiology of vitamins, minerals and trace elements is also dependent on enzyme activity."
"Being eaten whilst extremely young, "alive" and rapidly developing, sprouts have been acclaimed as the "most enzyme-rich food on the planet". Estimates suggest there can be up to 100 times more enzymes in sprouts than in fruit and vegetables, depending on the particular type of enzyme and the variety of seed being sprouted. The period of greatest enzyme activity in sprouts is generally between germination and 7 days of age."
"Grains and legume seeds of all plants contain abundant enzymes. However, while grains and seeds are dry, enzymes are largely inactive, due to enzyme inhibitors, until given moisture to activate germination. It is these inhibitors that enable many seeds to last for years in soil without deteriorating, whilst waiting for moisture. Enzyme inhibitors in some grains and legume seeds (for example trypsin inhibitors in raw soybeans and certain other beans and peas) need to be inactivated by heating or other processes, before they can be safely fed. However, heating, cooking and grinding processes can also inactivate certain digestive enzymes within grains and seeds. Fortunately, during germination and sprouting of grains and seeds, many enzyme inhibitors are effectively neutralized, whilst at the same time the activity of beneficial plant digestive enzymes is greatly enhanced."
Increases in Crude Protein content Morgan et al. (1992) found that -
"The protein content of sprouts increased from the time of germination, as shown below. The absorption of nitrates facilitates the metabolism of nitrogenous compounds from carbohydrate reserves, thus increasing crude protein levels."
Crude protein contents of seed and 4, 6 and 8-day old barley grass mats
Crude protein (% DM)
Original seed 10.1% 4 day old 10.8% 6 day old 13.7% 8 day old 14.9%
Source: Morgan et al. (1992)
Increases in Protein Quality Chavan and Kadam (1989) stated - "Very complex qualitative changes are reported to occur during soaking and sprouting of seeds. The conversion of storage proteins of cereal grains into albumins and globulins during sprouting may improve the quality of cereal proteins. Many studies have shown an increase in the content of the amino acid Lysine with sprouting." "An increase in proteolytic activity during sprouting is desirable for nutritional improvement of cereals because it leads to hydrolysis of prolamins and the liberated amino acids such as glutamic and proline are converted to limiting amino acids such as lysine."
Increases in Crude Fibre content Cuddeford (1989), based on data obtained by Peer and Leeson (1985), stated - "In sprouted barley, crude fibre, a major constituent of cell walls, increases both in percentage and real terms, with the synthesis of structural carbohydrates, such as cellulose and hemicellulose". Chung et al. (1989) found that the fibre content increased from 3.75% in unsprouted barley seed to 6% in 5-day sprouts."

Source: Cuddeford (1989), based on data obtained by Peer and Leeson (1985).
Increases in Essential Fatty Acids
An increase in lipase activity has been reported in barley by MacLeod and White (1962), as cited by Chavan and Kadam (1989). Increased lipolytic activity during germination and sprouting causes hydrolysis of triacylglycerols to glycerol and constituent fatty acids.
Increases in Vitamin content According to Chavan and Kadam (1989), most reports agree that sprouting treatment of cereal grains generally improves their vitamin value, especially the B-group vitamins. Certain vitamins such as α-tocopherol (Vitamin-E) and β-carotene (Vitamin-A precursor) are produced during the growth process (Cuddeford, 1989).
According to Shipard (2005) - "Sprouts provide a good supply of Vitamins A, E & C plus B complex. Like enzymes, vitamins serve as bioactive catalysts to assist in the digestion and metabolism of feeds and the release of energy. They are also essential for the healing and repair of cells. However, vitamins are very perishable, and in general, the fresher the feeds eaten, the higher the vitamin content. The vitamin content of some seeds can increase by up to 20 times their original value within several days of sprouting. Mung Bean sprouts have B vitamin increases, compared to the dry seeds, of - B1 up 285%, B2 up 515%, B3 up 256%. Even soaking seeds overnight in water yields greatly increased amounts of B vitamins, as well as Vitamin C. Compared with mature plants, sprouts can yield vitamin contents 30 times higher."
Chelation of Minerals Shipard (2005) claims that - "When seeds are sprouted, minerals chelate or merge with protein, in a way that increases their function."
Buckwheat greens contain fagopyrin, a naturally occurring substance in the buckwheat plant. When ingested in sufficient quantity, fagopyrin is known to cause the skin of animals and people to become phototoxic, which is to say hypersensitive to sunlight, particularly if juiced or eaten in large quantities. Due to the growing popularity of sprouts in general, and a widespread ignorance as to the toxic dangers posed by buckwheat greens specifically, many people are today suffering unnecessarily.
Also, sprouted grains,nuts and seeds should not be consumed by anyone sensitive to MSG, as sprouting naturally converts any glutamate to its free form, which immediately enters the blood stream and causes reactions. Reference: Battling the MSG Myth by Debby Anglesey.
Advocates of a raw food diet promote the use of sprouting as an effective way to increase the nutrient value, and digestibility, of beans, seeds and nuts. Sprouts are in fact the most nutrient dense food on earth – nutrient density refers to the amount of nutrients per calorie. This is why many people on a low-calorie diet make sprouts and baby greens the mainstay of their diet, especially blended for easier digestion.
Many raw food dietitians avoid grains in favor of nuts and seeds. While raw nuts and seeds contain enzyme deactivators that harm the stomach, and cooking nuts and seeds denatures their fats and oils, soaked or sprouted nuts and seeds have natural oils and active enzymes at the same time.
One main criticism of the raw foods diet, especially the insistence on the health value of sprouted nuts, seeds, and occasionally grains, is the very intensive labor time require for food preparation. Not only does it take a long time and lots of labor to sprout nuts and seeds, but the sprouting process makes them not as shelf-stable. Furthermore, unlike most cooked foods, there are very few commercial avenues for purchasing such foods. Most "raw foods bars" are raw but not sprouted (and therefore do not have active enzymes) because the bars would not keep as long on the shelf. The same is true of most nut and seed butters.

New Blackberry's Find new 4G homes
Among all the excellence in the smart phone world lately with announcements like the Nexus Prime and the iPhone 4S it hard to take the newly launched Blackberries seriously, with that being said the new Torch 9810 is finding its way into the real world. Blackberry took to the streets earlier this year with the launch of three new flagship models. The new models, the 9900 and 9930 Blackberry Bold, the 9850 9860 Blackberry Torch and a revision of the QWERTY Torch with the 9810. While the announcement was a bit underwhelming in regard to specs and operating systems the new Berries will soon be readily available to more potential end users.
If you're a T-Mobile customer your fresh Blackberry options include the Bold, the Curve and now the new 9810 Torch. TMo has officially announced they will be making the Blackberry Torch 9810 device available to their customers come November 9th. While it's not an iPhone 4 made official for the carrier, this has got to impress some of magenta's customer's right? The new Blackberry Torch 9810 as unexciting as it may be is a work horse. The vertical slider opens its 3.2 inch touch screen with a 480 x 640 pixel resolution to expose a full QWERTY keyboard. Internally it runs a single core 1.2 GHz processor that is backed by 768 MB of RAM and 8 GB of internal storage. The 9810 also comes equipped with expandable microSD memory, a 5 mega pixel camera with LED flash that can record video in 720p HD. The Torch 9180 uses the latest in Blackberry OS version 7 and can easily connect to the companies HSPA+ network and offer up 4G speeds. While it's no iPhone the Torch 9810 can surely stand on its own.
While the magenta carrier adds an additional berry to its lineup, it's soon to be owners are as well, Ma' Bell has just expanded their Blackberry line up as well. At&t have announced the additions of the Blackberry Curve 9360, Torch 9860 and Bold 9900. The Torch 9860 and Bold 9900 will be made available in the coming weeks on November 6th while the Curve 9360 will show face on store shelves come November 20th. The Bold and the all touch screen Torch 9860 will use At&t's HSPA+ 4G capable data connectivity while the new Curve will be 3G only. The Curve 9360 is the entry level Blackberry but comes with all you need to stay in touch. Its screen measures in a 2.4 inches and rocks a 480×360 pixel resolution. You can also expect a 5 mega pixel camera, expandable microSDHC memory, GPS, Wi-Fi connectivity, Bluetooth 2.1 and an 800 MHz CPU that makes it all go. The newest Torch 9860 is an all touch screen device that sports a 3.7 inch WVGA screen with a 480×800 resolution screen. Internally the device is run by Blackberry OS 7 and gets its go from a 1.2 GHz processor. It also includes a 5 mega pixel camera, 8GB of internal memory and 768 MB of RAM. The new Bold 9900 is the most impressive out of the bunch. It comes equipped with both a 2.8 inch touch screen and a legendary RIM full QWERTY keyboard. Internally it runs with a 1.2 GHz processor, 768 MB of RAM and 8 GB of internal memory.

About Urban Surf 4 Kids
Urban Surf for Kids is a non-profit organization with a dedicated team of volunteers providing orphans and foster youth an opportunity to try water based activities like surfing, swimming and paddle boarding. It offers the youth a chance to connect with the environment and have a whole lot of fun at the same time! We love to help out and spread the love of stand up and the recent event gave the kids a chance to try all kinds of paddle boards in picturesque mission bay and also offered up a fun paddle race to raise some funds for the organization.
The Urban Surf 4 Kids Paddle Race
The race took place on Bonita Cove just behind the roller coaster in Mission Bay and offered up a 2 mile, 6 mile and some fun relays. Isle managed to grab a 3rd place in the men's 2 mile stock division and also hosted a tent with lots of free giveaways like hats and stickers in addition to some boards for demo for the youth. The cove was filled with all kinds of people trying Sup for the first time and it was cool to see everyone, especially the kids enjoying themselves.
One thing that really stood out to me during the day was I noticed a guy paddling in the race in a wheel chair attached and balanced perfectly on top of his paddle board and it was the first time I had ever seen something like that and hats off to him as I love to see someone who doesn't let anything stop them from getting out in the water and doing what they love!!
The early morning overcast parted and made way for sunny skies in the afternoon as the relay races wrapped up and some delicious food was served to the competitors with a stage set up playing live music. The musical highlight was American Idol finalist Elliot Yamin who belted out tunes for an hour or so for the crowd and showed us just why he made it to the finals on one of the worlds most watched TV shows.
Thanks to Sal & the San Diego Urban Surf 4 Kids Crew for hosting the event and we look forward to coming back again next year!

ICANN told to clamp down on dodgy domain names
- Related Stories
Google phishing scam promises a $400 windfallNovember 8, 2005
ICANN urged to scrutinize domain claimsDecember 5, 2002
The study, released Wednesday by the U.S. General Accountability Office, showed that 2.31 million domain names, or 5.14 percent of all domain registrations, have been registered with information "obviously and intentionally false" (such as a (999) 999-9999 telephone number, the report says). The GAO also found that 1.6 million, or 3.6 percent, contained incomplete data in one or more of the required fields.
The report drew a response from Rep. Lamar Smith, chairman of the Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet and Intellectual Property.
"Vendors unwilling to identify themselves publicly are more than likely fraudulent," Smith, a Republican from Texas, said in a statement released Wednesday.
Smith concluded that the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the standards body for Internet domain names, is failing to "weed out such fraudulent identifications."
The rise of phishing scams has prompted Congress to investigate. In such fraud schemes, Internet thieves lure consumers to counterfeit Web sites to dupe them out of vital information such as credit card numbers and passwords. Roughly one in four U.S. Internet users have been targets of phishing attacks, according to a study conducted by Time Warner.
Contact information for operators of Web sites is publicly available through the Whois Internet service. Data from Whois could help law enforcement officials track down Internet criminals--provided it's accurate.
The GAO said that ICANN is now requiring registrars to investigate and correct any reported inaccuracies in contact information. The Internet group continues to assess the operation of the registration process and look for ways to improve accuracy, according to the agency's report.
Attempts to reach an ICANN representative were not successful.
This is not the first time ICANN has been called on to monitor the accuracy of its registrations more closely. A study three years ago found that ICANN policies encouraged but did not require registration organizations, such as VeriSign or Go Daddy, to verify information from people who have submitted false information. It recommended that ICANN change those policies.

- Invalid phone numbers
- It's worth noting that *some* of the invalid data cited in the GAO report was added to domain records by the registrars. For example, time was that domain contacts were not required to publish a telephone number; when ICANN decided to require this information, Verisign/NetSol (for one) inserted "999-999-9999" into all records that did not already include a phone number.

- Domain owners do not deserve any privacy!
- Security is a priority on the web, unless you are a domain owner, in that case - according to ICANN rules, you should be fair game for every spammer and con artist out there.
As a sysadmin I cannot begin to tell you the number of security issues I have to deal with almost daily. Viruses, phishing, pharming, spam and even snail mail rip-off artists all attempting to con my clients. Every new domain I put up gets spammed with the first couple of days and the automated break in attempts begin shortly after that.
Knowing all these threats exist, how can ICANN insist domain owners publish their full, personal details online for all to see?
I belive domain registration information needs to be better protected and managed if ICANN wants to have any hope of compliance.
If ICANN truly feels all domain owners should comply with their out of date ARPANET rules then I suggest they should lead the compliance drive by publishing the full names, home addresses and home phone numbers of all the ICANN staff, including the board.

- Protect the domain owners
- Why can't more be done to solicit legitimate information from domain owners, but at the same time, do more to protect them?
I mean, just because I own a domain, why should everyone have instant access to my information? And at the same time, isn't it better to have the correct information in there?
Why not make some sort of policy that keeps the information private until the right kind of request is made? Like it's private until law enforcement requests it, or when you make a request, you have to provide your own information and the domain owner is notified of your request (they don't get to say yes/no, they just get informed)?
With both of these, I can think of many pros and cons. I'm not advocating either of these, but it seems like a taskforce could be convened to come up with some new thought on ownership registration, how to make it more verifiable and secure and private, balancing everyone's concerns?

- ICANN leads the way
- The issue is not the personal data of board and staff members. The issue is accurate data in domain registrations. That's not an unreasonable requirement.
ICANN's registration seems accurate and complete. In part, here it is. This is the minimum required for a domain registration.
Registrant ID:C4128112-RCOM
Name:(ICANN) Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
Organization:Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)
Street1:4676 Admiralty Way, Suite 330
City:Marina del Rey
Postal Code:92092
Phone Ext.:
FAX Ext.:
There's nothing out-of-date about a requirement for accurate registration data. In fact, the need is greater now than during the ARPANET's early development because, now, much financial and business activity depends on it.
As for board and staff members, ICANN is quite open about who runs the organization.

- Good luck with that.
- I'll be the first to blatently admit that I do not list legitimate contact methods (except for my Email address) for any of my domains. Yes, this violates ICANN specifications... so the question is, why do I do it?
Simple: to avoid spam. What kinds-of spam you ask? All forms.
There are shady registrars out there -- some of which who have been taken to court in Europe for their shady dealings -- who peruse the WHOIS database (despite it being against the law) and begin sending unsolicited snail mail to any of the contacts listed.
One such company, who still does this even today, is the "Domain Registry of America" (DROA). You can visit their site here: http://www.droa.com/
Look on Google and Usenet for references to this company. All you'll find are complaints about how they send you spam, send you false "invoices" when a domain you own (NOT WITH THEM!) is about to expire, yadda yadda. In one case, I even received a telephone call from some random registrar (it was an automated message, yapping about one of my domain names -- maybe it was the DROA, I don't know. They didn't provide their company name!).
But as I said, I do keep a legitimate Email address in my contact records. This is necessary in case my own registrar has issues and needs to contact me, or if someone has concerns. Of course, the amount of Email-based spam I get to this address is through the roof (so much for the "DON'T USE THIS DATABASE FOR UNSOLCITED EMAIL" warning WHOIS outputs...).
ICANN, if you want people to put legitimate information in their records, then you need to stop jerking off and do something about outfits like the DROA and many others. Until then, good luck getting myself and many others to put accurate snail mail or telephone contact information in our records...

- What about anonymous registrars?
- There are some organizations who register domain names on their own name, and link the content of another person. These are specially designed constructions to conceil the identity of the domain owners.
Any way they could force them?

- I'm 50/50 on this WHAT IF.....
- What if its a girl hosting her Geocities website and
She posts pictures of herself and family and dog and
shows pictures of her new house and car sicne they won the million dollar lotto.
Then anyone can drive by their house and ask if they can have some money since they are so rich.
Or people would google them and then call them at all hours of teh night and pedos would be driving by and looking and using the registers email and add it to their instant messenger to hook up with them later online.....
ONLY THE NAME, CITY, STATE should be shown and
If you want to contact the domain owner then have it work like craigslist for permission and it will be the persons discretion if they want to talk or email with whomever.
If you are with a GOVT agency then network solutions or go daddy should have a form like MSN passport that lets you log in as the feds so you can bypass and see the domain info instantly.
This is soooooooo easy to do! Why hasn't anyone fixed it?!?!?!

- I agree with the privacy issues.
- Truely the privacy issues here are important. As are the issues regarding abuse of domains. They really do need to enforce accurate records, but those records should be protected just like driver's license records. Government employees can get your DL records pretty easily, but if you are a civilian, it's a bit harder.
Please don't live under the illusion that your information is, or ever will be, totally safe and secure. It's the internet. So long as there is a challenging security wall up, there will be a thousand "security experts" trying to break in. I wonder just how often the NCIC gets cracked anyway?

- Spam Domains
- Yes, the false information is a way that spammers hide their identity. The good news is that ICANN works with registrars and if they can't get in touch with the domain owner to have the false, incorrect information corrected, the domain will be taken offline.
Here is an article about it:

I have had success in having more than a dozen domains taken offline that I received SPAM from.

- No anonymity for business domains
- There may be a disconnect between personal domain registrations and business domains. While individuals may expect a level of confidentiality, anyone doing business using domain registrations has no right to anonymity.
Outside the Internet, business identities are public record. Here in the U.S. business registrations to state government are public information. The corporation commissions in many states make these records searchable on the Internet. U.S. corporations that are publicly owned must file information to the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC). See the SEC web site for the type of information that's public. Search for Ticker Symbol AAPL, for example.
http://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch.html
Moreover, it's unacceptable for a business, whether privately or publicly owned, to transact business anonymously. Revealing one's correct, verifiable contact information is the price of doing business with the public. Every business domain registration must be accurate and verifiable. Dealing with the possibilities of unwanted solicitations, fraudulent transactions, etc. is common to both offline and online business and can't be solved by allowing Internet anonymity.

- You mean like...
- ...registrars such as Domains By Proxy (www.domainsbyproxy.com)?
There's no way to enforce this with them either. Sure, they claim to comply with law enforcement, but then again, it doesn't matter if you agree to comply or not -- you WILL comply with a subpoena. :-)
Companies like Domains By Proxy that exist solely *because* of the problems associated with putting up real information in one's WHOIS records. They admit this freely on their site. I'm disgruntled that someone's in the business of *making money* off of people's desire for privacy (it runs along the same lines as spam, in my opinion).
Proxy registrars should be shut down + taken offline. I'm amazed ICANN lets them stay around. You can't find any information about who owns their companies, either. I don't trust them simply because they don't disclose on their own site who calls the shots, where the money goes, who runs the place, yadda yadda. For all I know it's some IRC packet kid running a "business" out of his bedroom, collecting thousands upon thousands of credit cards which will eventually be sold to the highest bidder.
Wouldn't be the first time...

- But what about...
- the person who is living under a repressive government that has registered a domain name and has posted information their government has deemed to be seditious?
This article and all the comments so far have only looked at one half of the story. It should be remembered that there may be good reasons to allow people to hide their identity even from governments as well.
The question then is how to set a balance between the need to shut down sites which prey upon people vs how to protect people against bad government.

After negotiating three qualifying rounds, the Scottish champions were drawn alongside the Italian giants as well as Barcelona and Ajax in a section full of previous winners of the top club competition in Europe.
Celtic, though, are generally regarded as the weakest side in the group but Samaras is mindful of the Hoops beating Barcelona last season on their way to the last 16, and of the club's rich history in Europe which includes the European Cup final win over Inter Milan in Lisbon in 1967.
The Greece striker, 28, said: "The group we have is really difficult with some of the greatest clubs in world football.
"But we are a great club as well and we want to stay in this high level every year if possible.
"The players know the history of this club, we are really proud of what the previous teams and players did in the club's history, and we want to create our own history."
Samaras scored in five away games in Europe last season and in the Hoops' first qualifying round at Cliftonville this season but the former Manchester City player played down his contribution to the cause.
"I am not playing football for records or numbers," he said.
"I am playing football because I love it and I want my team to win. The rest is just numbers.
"If we win tomorrow and I score a goal then okay, but if someone else scores....the main point is try to get something from the game.
"We worked hard in the summer and pre-season and we have already played six European games and SPFL games.
"Our fitness is of a high standard and we are here because we liked what happened last year.
"It was a great experience for everyone at the club and we worked hard to be back in the group stages and so we want to enjoy the games and try to win them if possible.
"I know the group is really tough but we are ready for the challenge."

An exotic Italian sports car will be relisted on a government of Canada surplus website after failing to attract a $70,000 minimum bid.
The 1987 Lamborghini Countach, a 455-horsepower, mid-engined two-seater, will carry a reduced minimum bid of $58,000 when it is relisted as early as today on the Crown Assets Distribution site at crownassets.pwgsc.gc.ca .
Forfeited by its previous owner to the Canada Revenue Agency, the black Countach has 88,000 kilometres on its odometer.
It sold new for about $180,000. Officials expect the sale to close just after the holidays.

Select Local Merchants
FastFrame Orange CountyRead MoreFastFrame's skilled framers customize borders for an array of wall-worthy pieces. Selecting from an extensive inventory of materials, they craft frames to showcase original artwork or to endow special photographs with a dignified display. Their carefully curated conservation materials prevent works of art from fading and prevent their subjects from sprouting a 5 o'clock shadow. But the framesmiths don't limit themselves to two dimensions—sports memorabilia, kids' artwork, and other three-dimensional objects find artistic preservation within shadowboxes. They even transform flat-screen TVs into customized, framed works of art by installing a VisionArt feature, which transmits the still image of a painting, family portrait, or favorite infomercial onto idle screens.:m]]25800 Jeronimo RoadMission Viejo, CA US
Fast FrameRead MoreFastFrame outlines photographs and wall-worthy art with more than 1,000 frames in styles ranging from baroque gold trims to funky contemporary schemes. Dedicated to craftsmanship and creativity, professional framers help select matting hues that will complement a diploma or the neighborhood Declaration of Independence. All projects are completed onsite, ensuring that no materials get dented or lost by clumsy carrier pigeons, and clients can return any custom designs for complete retooling within 30 days if they don't match their home's decor.25800 Jeronimo RdMission Viejo, CA US
Laguna Art MuseumRead MoreThe Laguna Art Museum began in 1918 as a small gallery in a converted cottage, where local artists would display and sell their pieces to the public. As the exhibits and collections grew larger over the next several decades, the founders moved the gallery into a larger, custom space, and eventually transformed it into a museum celebrating the development of Californian art from the 19th century to the present. The museum currently boasts a permanent collection of more than 3,500 works, as well as rotating exhibits that track the evolution of artistic expression. To further its mission of spreading public appreciation for local art, the museum hosts informative lectures and open-house receptions. The museum's Carole Reynolds Art Research Library also intrigues readers with more than 5,000 books, many of which chronicle the history of Californian art.307 Cliff DrLaguna Beach, CA US
Pacific Marine Mammal CenterRead MoreThe Pacific Marine Mammal Center offers its visitors the chance to add a sea lion to their family trees. Through symbolic adoptions, the non-profit organization funds its mission to locate, rehabilitate, and release injured marine mammals—including seals, sea lions, and dolphins—back home in the wild. After admitting one of these animal patients, the Pacific Marine Mammal Center's animal-care director and a veterinary medical director can administer antibiotics, nurse mammals back to health or go through treatment plans for various diseases and illnesses. Aside from adoptions, the center educates the public about these efforts through programs such as field trips and day camps for kids.20612 Laguna Canyon Rd.Laguna Beach, CA US
Flavors of LagunaRead MoreFlavors of Laguna's tasting tours meander to well-known Laguna Beach restaurants as well as eateries kept quiet by locals, with tastings of a wide variety of cuisines along the way. Though stops can vary, past trips have seen tour-goers dig spoons into Dolce Gelato's creamy handcrafted treats, sample sizzling dishes at La Sirena Grill, or cozy up to the horseshoe island bar at Lumberyard. (Wine or beer tastings are available for an extra fee.) Between bites, guides point out major sights during casual strolls around Laguna's streets, ensuring that tours, like city maps made of chocolate, are informative as well as delicious.347 Mermaid St.Laguna Beach, CA US
ZoomarsRead MoreA rustic Spanish-style farm in the heart of San Juan Capistrano that's been standing since 1890 promises more creatures than just the area's famous swallows. The picturesque estate is part of Zoomars?an all-ages petting zoo that's USDA-approved for cleanliness and the place where more than 200 animals call home. The residents range from the familiar to the exotic: goats, sheep, and kunekune pigs mingle alongside exotic emus, zebus, and zebras that greet visitors for pets and feeding. One of the zoo's most popular areas is the guinea-pig patch, where some of the farm's fuzziest and friendliest creatures reside. Zoomars also features family-friendly attractions ranging from a miniature train and pony rides to the newly installed playground with four slides to the rustic Miner's Gulch, where panning the water reveals rare treasures such as gemstones. Meet the Owner Owner Carolyn Franks started down the path to animal care in college when she created her own line of dog toys. She soon moved from New Jersey to California where her passion snowballed: developing a full line of pet products, hosting an animal show for kids, running a chain of exotic bird stores, and even traveling to Brazil to learn about animal conservation. In 2005, she used her knowledge to take over the Jones Farm petting zoo, expanding its pens and transforming its brand into Zoomars. Franks is joined by a well-trained staff of zookeepers and wranglers who share her vision in entertaining kids?and teaching them how to interact with the animals?as they are in caring for and shepherding mammals and birds.31791 Los Rios St.San Juan Capistrano, CA US

IMPERIAL, TEXAS (Fort Bend County). Imperial, a shipping point on the Texas and New Orleans Railroad, was owned by the Imperial Sugar Company and located on the grounds of the Central State Prison Farm in Fort Bend County. Sugar Land served as post office and home for the employees of the facility. Imperial apparently remained a rail station and did not achieve town status. It may have had a post office in 1908, but it was discontinued within a short time.

The world should organise its defences now in case an asteroid is found on a collision course with Earth, says a group of US scientists.
There are huge numbers of asteroids that come close to Earth's orbit, called near-Earth asteroids (NEAs). Millions of them are large enough to do serious damage in an impact, including the asteroid Apophis, which has a small chance of hitting Earth in 2036.
On Friday, a US National Research Council panel led by Irwin Shapiro of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts, issued a report on how best to respond to the asteroid threat.
It recommended setting up an international body that would be prepared to spring into action and defend the planet if an asteroid is discovered on a likely impact course.
The international body would be "composed of representatives of nations concerned with this problem and willing to invest in preparedness for a damaging collision", the report says.
If a dangerous asteroid were discovered far enough in advance, the group could organise a space mission to deflect it. "It's the only natural disaster we know about where we could actually prevent it," says Shapiro.
The report also found:
• Existing surveys are incapable of finding 90 per cent of near-Earth asteroids that are 140 metres across or larger by 2020, a goal set by the US Congress in 2005.
• Launching a powerful asteroid-hunting space telescope could allow the goal to be met as early as 2022, but would likely cost more than $1 billion.
• Radar observations by the giant Arecibo telescope in Puerto Rico allow NEA trajectories – and impact probabilities – to be determined most precisely, but uncertain funding threatens this capability. The report argues that the telescope's radar-imaging capabilities be funded at $2.5 million per year.
• The US should initiate a research programme to develop deflection technologies and to better understand impact effects like tsunamis.
Shapiro says policymakers have not yet responded to the report, which was requested by the US Congress in 2008. The panel issued an interim report in 2009 warning that small yet still dangerous asteroids are going undetected.
Congress has also called on the US Office of Science and Technology Policy to recommend by October 2010 which agency or department, such as NASA or the Department of Defense, should lead US efforts to track dangerous asteroids and develop deflection technologies.

We believe it's important to pitch in and make a difference. It's about more than just giving money to worthy causes. It's about getting involved.
To encourage employee volunteerism, the Principal Financial Group® offers a special benefit to employees called Volunteer Time Off (VTO). Through VTO, employees can use eight hours of paid work time per year to volunteer with an organization that means something to them--helping neighborhood schools, assisting community nonprofits, supporting local events and more.
Through the Principal Volunteer Network and our VTO benefits, employees log tens of thousands of volunteer hours each year. The ways in which employees use their VTO are as unique as employees themselves.
"I've used my Volunteer Time Off the past six years to support the RAGBRAI Dreamteam, an organization primarily for disadvantaged youth," explains Brian Horsfall, a senior IT application analyst at The Principal, in Des Moines. RAGBRAI is an annual seven-day bike ride across the state of Iowa, covering nearly 500 miles.
"The team starts training every February with one simple goal: ride every mile of RAGBRAI," Horsfall continues. "In the beginning, some of the youth lack physical fitness and self-confidence. By the time RAGBRAI rolls around that summer, they have gained the confidence and fitness level needed to ride every mile of RAGBRAI, regardless of weather conditions."
Jessie Valasek, a senior client services assistant for The Principal in Grand Island, Neb., uses her time to volunteer at the Nebraska State Fair. "I helped prepare and hand out lunches for the elementary school students who attended the fair as part of a field trip to Nebraska's 'largest classroom,'" she says.
VTO is also a great way for parents to get involved in their kids' activities. Cheryl Yost, a senior account executive with The Principal in Philadelphia, Pa., shares her story. "Two years ago, my daughter's third grade Brownie troop leader stepped down from her role. I had been active with the troop and was asked to take over. As a working mom, I decided instead to form a committee of four working moms to co-lead the troop for the year.
"After a few planning meetings to get us started," she continues, "we've been very successful with the troop, and the girls are having fun. I run a meeting every other month and take two hours of Volunteer Time Off for each meeting. It's been a great experience."
In 2012, employees reported using nearly 26,000 hours of Volunteer Time Off, with countless additional hours dedicated to their communities on their own time.

Quick-Lock Mounting System for Portable Mixers
September 22, 2011
The Sharpe M5 Quick-Lock Mounting System for Sharpe Mixers' line of clamp-mount and cup-plate mounted portable mixers eliminates the need for tools. Featuring ergonomic hand wheels rather than bolts and T-handles, users can now install and reposition their mixers by hand. And for those who want added leverage, the wheels include a hexagonal base to accept an open-end wrench. Incorporating interlocking wedge components that provide enhanced locking force when the wheels are turned by hand, the Sharpe M5 Quick-Lock Mounting System is constructed from stainless steel. The hand wheels are also made from stainless steel and for the standard line of portable mixers they are aluminum and chrome-plated.
