Catch-22by Joseph Heller
Out of Print
Staff Pick
If your only experience with Catch-22 was reading it for a class in high school — or if you haven't even read it at all — you owe it to yourself to revisit this book. It's a comic masterpiece, yes, but more than that: Catch-22 is a blast of anarchic mayhem that flies in the face of the accepted madness that is society, especially in a time of war — which makes the book that much more relevant today.
Biting, black, bitter, and very, very funny, Catch-22 is the greatest war satire in the language and one of the greatest satires of the 20th century, period. If you haven't read it, lay in a case of bourbon and get reading.
"Like all superlative works of comedy — and I am ready to argue that this is one of the most bitterly funny works in the language — Catch-22 is based on an unconventional but utterly convincing internal logic. In the very opening pages, when we come upon a number of Air Force officers malingering in a hospital — one censoring all the modifiers out of enlisted men's letters and signing the censor's name 'Washington Irving,' another pursuing tedious conversations with boring Texans in order to increase his life span by making time pass slowly, still another storing horse chestnuts in his cheeks to give himself a look of innocence — it seems obvious that an inordinate number of Joseph Heller's characters are, by all conventional standards, mad. It is a triumph of Mr. Heller's skill that he is so quickly able to persuade us 1) that the most lunatic are the most logical, and 2) that it is our conventional standards which lack any logical consistency. The sanest looney of them all is the apparently harebrained central character, an American bombardier of..." Robert Brustein, The New Republic, 1961 (read The New Republic's entire review)
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Catch-22 is like no other novel. It is one of the funniest books ever written, a keystone work in American literature, and even added a new term to the dictionary.
At the heart of Catch-22 resides the incomparable, malingering bombardier, Yossarian, a hero endlessly inventive in his schemes to save his skin from the horrible chances of war. His efforts are perfectly understandable because as he furiously scrambles, thousands of people he hasn't even met are trying to kill him. His problem is Colonel Cathcart, who keeps raising the number of missions the men must fly to complete their service. Yet if Yossarian makes any attempts to excuse himself from the perilous missions that he is committed to flying, he is trapped by the Great Loyalty Oath Crusade, the hilariously sinister bureaucratic rule from which the book takes its title: a man is considered insane if he willingly continues to fly dangerous combat missions, but if he makes the necessary formal request to be relieved of such missions, the very act of making the request proves that he is sane and therefore ineligible to be relieved.
Catch-22 is a microcosm of the twentieth-century world as it might look to some one dangerously sane — a masterpiece of our time.
"An apocalyptic masterpiece." Chicago Sun-Times
"A monumental artifact of contemporary American literature, almost as assured of longevity as the statues on Easter Island....Catch-22 is a novel that reminds us once again of all that we have taken for granted in our world and should not, the madness we try not to bother and notice, the deceptions and falsehoods we lack the will to try to distinguish from truth." John W. Aldridge, The New York Times Book Review
"Below its hilarity, so wild that it hurts, Catch-22 is the strongest repudiation of our civilization, in fiction, to come out of World War II....To compare Catch-22 favorably with The Good Soldier Schweik would be an injustice, because this novel is not merely the best American novel to come out of World War II; it is the best American novel that has come out of anywhere in years." Nelson Algren, The Nation
Joseph Heller's manic, bleak, blackly humorous, and brilliant novel has become a classic of American literature, and Catch-22 has entered the language as a term describing a no-win situation. Set during the last months of World War II, Heller's novel tells the story of a bombardier, the hapless Yossarian, who is convinced — quite rightly, of course — that people are trying to kill him.
About the Author
Joseph Heller was born in Brooklyn in 1923. In 1961 he published Catch-22, which became a bestseller as well as a film in 1970. He went on to write such novels as Something Happened, God Knows, Picture This, and Closing Time (the sequel to Catch-22). Heller died in December 1999.

By JAMES FRANKLIN RINEHARTPrice
Let us remember during our next millennium we carry forth a learned principle; morality when vigorously alive, sees farther than intellect.
Having lectured on political science for many years; as I understand it, the beginning of the United States of America was the most dramatic and significant episode in a long pilgrimage, a pilgrimage of the Judaic-Christian idea of law, liberty and self government. The master principle of our organic documents of government, the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights and the Constitution.
After that basic Judaic-Christian idea had worked for centuries in the finite minds of men, it led to an obvious conclusion: individual man, the object of such infinite grace and mercy, is the most important creature on earth.
This is the origin of the basic American political ideal; that man gets all his rights and powers from God.
And as our Christian founders believed, the purpose of our government is to secure these rights. Hence, something new in government.
The strength and culture of America, built on the Judaic-Christian faith, will start degenerating when Americans no longer hold aloft the central tenets of this faith. The reality is, government is a not a productive entity. It does not produce wealth, people produce wealth, and pro-create life.
Government is an instrument of control; it taxes production and distribution, reducing the individual to servitude. Unless politicians are checked by responsible, and an informed electorate; government, like fire, becomes a fearful master..
So, put not thy faith in politicians, but accept the responsibility of an informed citizen, demanding our representatives understand the proper role of our constitutional government. Insist that our congressman keep their oath of office and that they guard against oligarchial rule and influence.
The Constitution is the bench mark for a congressman's voting decision. In the year 2008 election, if a member of the House of Representatives and/or a U.S. Senator has failed this test, they should not be returned to office.
Remember, the voter is the employer and the candidate when elected, is the employee.The eventual consequence rests upon the voter and all members of our society. By our actions and behavior, a political system is made, and by the operation of that system, our progression or retrogression is caused.
Next to the 10 Commandments, America's constitutional republic is among the greatest gifts to the human family.

Buffalo, NY - There's a sign of progress at Canalside. Lieutenant Governor Robert Duffy was in town for a groundbreaking at the East Canal Project.
It's located next to the former Donovan Building. The $5-million dollar project is designed to transform the site into a new public park. It will feature fountains, seating and a shaded tree grove near the water.
Lt. Governor Duffy says while it's not finished yet, it's a win-win because it's already putting people to work.

Gothic fashion, has been around for a long time (centuries from one point of view) and includes a huge variety of styles.
Here we are going to focus primarily on what is a modern classic goth. We are looking for designs available in black, made of both sleek and rich fabrics.
Some styles will work well for the corporate goth look, made with suit like fabrics cut in clean classic styles (think EGL : elegant gothic lolita ).
Others go a little further experimenting with fabric and texture, as well as; adding avante-garde details that will make you stand our from the crowd. You will find the LBD (little black dress) you have been looking for.

Then the Evil Spirit whittled forth as our antagonists evil sorcerers. The Avesta.
Zohak, the evil brother of the Firestarter Atar, has made the ultimate pact with the demons. He learns that the power the dragon-snakes have given him does not come without a cost. He is horrified to find that they require human brains for food.
Atar is faced with the final test. The winner gains the throne of the Persian Empire. Meanwhile, the kingdom is wracked with disturbances. The drought has caused famine. Zohak institutes a monstrous tithe, and Kava the blacksmith loses his family.
The Army of the People rises under Atar and Kava, but they are faced with an Imperial army now composed of full and part blooded demons, sorcerers, and wizards. Their only hope is the power contained in the body of Atar the Firestarter, but he must first find a way to activate it.

Elk were another big game species that were common in pre-settlement Kansas. They were also extirpated at the turn of the century. However, a small herd was maintained at the Maxwell Wildlife Area near McPherson. The 2,200-acre enclosure is operated as a refuge and also features bison. In 1981, elk from Maxwell were released at the Cimarron National Grassland, and that herd was free-ranging. To keep that herd from growing too big and causing crop damage, a limited resident-only season was opened in 1987. Later in the 1980s, elk were captured at Maxwell and released on the Ft. Riley Military Reservation. That herd is also free-ranging, and a season was established for the fort in 1990. Today, elk are primarily hunted on and around Ft. Riley, but individual elk or small herds may be found at other locations around the state, and hunting is permitted everywhere except a portion of Morton County (see Elk Management Unit maps). About 900 applications are received for the 20 or so permits allotted each year, and they are divided among military personnel and Kansas residents.
Military permits are only available for active duty military personnel stationed at Fort Riley. All other eligible persons must apply for general permits.

USsoccer.com caught up with Mike, Jurgen Klinsmann and a few other players after the team's first training session on Tuesday. Check out the video below and see Mike's interview beginning at about 1:20.

Mike Magee has won a lot of awards this offseason and you probably thought he was done when he collected the MLS MVP trophy at the beginning of the month.
You'd be wrong though.
Fire fans mobilized last week, voted and garnered Magic Mike 57% of the vote to make the Fire forward and hometown hero RedEye Chicago's Sports Stud of 2013.
Now it's unlikely that his most recent honor will play any bearing one whether or not U.S. Men's National Team head coach Juergen Klinsmann selects him for January camp in LA and Brazil.
After admitting some surprise at not being called for the team's November friendlies in Europe after his MVP season, Magee did have some interesting things to say about the January camp and somewhat longshot hopes of making the World Cup roster, namely:
"I hope I get called into camp because that's what I'm now training for," Magee said. "I'm training to be in that camp and if I'm not, I'll lie and say I'm getting ready for our preseason." He added: "Of course I want to be on that World Cup roster. In the past, when I wasn't called in, it was a little disappointing because I know what I'm capable of doing and know that I could help the team."
WATCH: #MikeMageeMVP All-Access
Chicago Fire Homegrown prospect Harrison Shipp garnered another collegiate accolade Monday, as TopDrawerSoccer.com named the Notre Dame attacker its 2013 Collegiate Player of the Year.
Just over a week ago, Shipp led the Fighting Irish to its first ever NCAA College Cup, tallying the game-winning assist in a 2-1 win over Maryland in Chester, Pa.
Shipp's 12 goals and 10 assists for Notre Dame also made him a finalist for the MAC Hermann Trophy which is set to be awarded on January 10.
Though the club has not yet signed Shipp to a Homegrown deal, earlier this month MLS confirmed he was eligible to be signed directly by the Fire.
At a Season Ticket Holder Town Hall on December 14, the day before the College Cup final, Fire head coach and Director of Soccer Frank Yallop spoke highly of Shipp, comparing him to a young Mike Magee before insinuating the team would be bringing him in as a Homegrown player by saying, "We'll get him."
As U.S. Soccer wraps up its centennial anniversary celebration in 2013, the Federation on Friday released the U.S. Men's National Team's all-time Best XI.
A voting panel of 57 former players, administrators and media were polled to determine the list which just so happens to feature three former Fire players in Carlos Bocanegra (2000-2003), Brian McBride (2008-2010) and Eric Wynalda (2001).
Wynalda and McBride, who at one point sat first and second respectively on the U.S. Men's National Team's all-time goal scoring list ran away with the two forward spots while Carlos Bocanegra finished third in the vote among defenders behind Marcelo Balboa and Eddie Pope.
The three Fire representatives on the list have appeared in a combined eight FIFA World Cups, amassed 313 caps and tallied 78 goals for the U.S. Men's National Team.
Notable players missing from the list or rather, those that should get Honorable Mentions include goalkeepers Kasey Keller and Tim Howard, defenders Paul Caligiuri and Thomas Dooley, midfielders Michael Bradley and Cobi Jones and forward Earnie Stewart.
See the list below... What do you think?

Fox 5 Morning News came into my kitchen this morning, and I cooked up a Mexican feast with anchor Holly Morris to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month! Over three segments, we made a big pot of black beans, which we turned into Charro Beans, and finally topped off our feast with Molletes and Pico de Gallo.
If you missed us, or are not in the DC area, watch all three segments and get the recipes here.

One thing I do enjoy is talking to prospective heli fliers about RC helicopters. I get a kick out of explaining how they work, what they're like to fly and all the associated information needed.
Ofcourse, the most common questions asked are:
· How fast does it go?
· How hard is it to fly?
· Are you sure it can fly upside down? I didn't think helicopters could do that?
· Do you crash often?
· How much does it cost?
Generally the answer to that last question often means the end of the session as they suddenly aren't too interested.
I try to be reasonable in my estimates of the level of investment required to get into the hobby. I often say that NZ$2000 (Currently NZ$1 = US$0.43) is a good start which will get you going with a basic set up. I try not to dwell on how much machines like the Z230 cost to get in the air, much less a Kyosho Caliber!
Since getting into this hobby in October 2000, our club hasn't had any new active fliers join up. In a bid to rectify this situation and promote the club and hobby a bit, our club recently held a helicopter open night for the general public to come along and get an insight into what this heli hobby is about.
We had simulators, videos, magazines, handouts, quizzes and 22 machines on display. The simulators proved a big hit with people trying their hand at having a fly.
We advertised the night in the community newspaper the week before, having used to work for the newspaper company I organised a photographer to come out and get some shots of the heli. The reporter rung up and did a phone interview with the resulting article printed the week before our open night.
We had a lot of good support from interested members of the public and the following Sunday we had quite a number of people visit us at the field to see the machines in action.
I think we've probably got about two or three people who are serious about getting into it, with the determination to follow it up with some action. If these people materialise into reality, then that will be great. Three learners at a time is a good number for our club.
What I would like to see happen maybe in the summer months is for our club to hold an 'open day' where people actually come along to the field and see the machines in action. Looking at the machines up close in a hall is great, but watching a heli as it howls through the sky just doesn't compare.
I would be interested to hear what other clubs have done to promote the hobby/their membership.
Z230 goes to school
My girlfriend's five year old daughter came home from school one week and announced that a 'big red helicopter' had landed in the school's yard during the day and had taken one of the kids for a ride.
I thought that while the interest in helicopters was alive, it might be an idea for me to take one of my helis along to her class for 'show and tell', knowing that when I was young, that would have been a real highlight.
We organised it with the school, and I took the Z230 along with a video of the Ergo 46 doing some flying around and aerobatics.
While waiting for the class to start it was a real fight to keep the little hands off the Z230 as I sat waiting for the teacher to turn up and instil some order into the chaos surrounding me and my expensive machine.
Finally the teacher turned up and rescued me from the younguns and we got on with the 'show and tell'. As it was raining and I didn't know the area (ie radio interference) I didn't offer to do a flying demonstration. The last thing I wanted was "Rogue helicopter kills children" in the newspaper!
So I described how the helicopter worked and what controls did what. Half way through the talk it occurred to me that five year olds probably didn't know what 'collective pitch' and 'cyclic controls' were. However the teacher helped me out and the kids seemed to understand.
They really enjoyed watching the video and seemed to find an Ergo 46 hovering inverted quite hilarious.
We finished off by having the kids have their picture taken with the Z230.

In the staff development session at the Carbon school board meeting on April 14, professional development academy director Myra Tollestrup from Brigham Young University outlined the program and explained how collaborative cultures in the state and local district can aid in improving education.
The venue is a three-year program known as professional learning communities (PLC) and Carbon County School District is one of five statewide districts participating.
Coordinated through BYU, the program was the featured item before the board.
Without collaborative skills and relationships among the various teachers and principals, it is not possible to learn efficiently, reported Tollestrup. Working within the schools, the district identifies any learning problems. The faculty and principals then discuss the concerns to determine if a local educator has specific knowledge to help resolve the problem or if a speaker from the outside needs to be brought in.
Often by working with the other districts, the principals determine that another school has a similar problem and have already put a new procedure in place. The principals can share the solutions.
Carbon County is the only school district with all principals participating in the program, primarily because it is the smallest district involved. Jordan School District in Salt Lake County is the largest.
"The principal is in the best position to transform the school's culture of isolationism into that of a knowledge nurturing PLC," noted Tollestrup. "School systems often do to little to assist principals to acquire these practices. If schools want to enhance their organizational capacity to boost student learning, they should work on building a professional community that is characterized by shared purpose, collaborative activity and collective responsibility among staff."
Tollestrup said, basically, it's a program where teachers, principals and administrators join ranks locally or statewide to discuss and set up curriculums to help all the students get more knowledge and skills.
In an unrelated discussion at the board of education meeting, Robert Welch, a sergeant with the Carbon County Sheriff's Office, requested that the law enforcement agency be allowed to use school buses to transport prisoners in case of an emergency.
According to OSHA regulations, the county jail must have an evacuation plan in place in case of an emergency and this would involve transporting inmates if necessary to a secure place. The board approved the request.
Deon Kone, director of buildings and grounds gave a brief report concerning building improvements and capital outlay projects in the district.
It was announced that, during the next 10 years, there will be at least one building each summer getting a new roof
Priority on the buildings will be determined by need and when the individual warranties expire.
The district office is on tap for a new roof in the upcoming summer months, while East Carbon and Carbon High schools are also targeted for improvements.
One of the capital outlay requests that caused some controversy and discussion was a line item of $20,000 that would go to the Carbon County Booster Club for service performed on the ball fields.
The money is approved every three years and basically covers repairs and improvements on softball and baseball facilities.
Jim Thompson, an English teacher at Carbon High School, voiced concerns that this program is getting special treatment.
"If money is not identified and not itemized and that bothers me," he said.
Since the item was not on the agenda Superintendent David Armstrong suggested delaying discussion on it and allowing the board and administration to address the issue.
"We need to clarify the terms and clear up any items," said the superintendent.
Since that meeting was conducted, Armstrong is recommending the money be put towards improvements in the library. The matter will be discussed and possibly finalized at the next board meeting.
The secondary schools presented their overviews for the school improvement plans prepared in conjunction with the school community council. Reports were given from East Carbon High School, Helper Junior High School and Carbon High School.
At the next board meeting the elementary principals will give their reports. The only item missing from the reports are the test scores because students are now only just taking them and the scores are not available.

Last month we noticed that some of our favorite tastemakers were opting for miniature satchels to complement their lightly layered looks as they transitioned between seasons. While those polished purses are certainly still fashionable, now that summer is in full swing, we've observed a number of stylish celebrities who are reaching for casual carryalls instead! Specifically, ladies like Sienna Miller and Rachel Bilson have started a microtrend and are making bright bohemian bags a must-have accessory. We've totally fallen for these slouchy sacks too: they add a pop of color and a dose of patterned or textural intrigue to any neutral ensemble, plus they give off a great gypset vibe that is spot-on for summer dressing! AdditionallyÂ--and this is always a plusÂ--they are enticingly functional, being large and sturdy enough to toss in a sporty swimsuit, heels, or a sweater, should your warm-weather travels require you to go from city-to-beach or day-to-night.
But before we launch into our detailed analysis of how the best of the best wield this on-trend accessory, we'll walk you through our initial sighting at the Marc by Marc Jacobs S/S 10 show, where JacobsÂ--known for his youthful and slightly insouciant aestheticÂ--presented quite an exciting visual display! The collection's bright colors and loud prints created a cacophony of fun-loving ensembles, which were completed with loads of funky accessories. These cheeky oversized headbands, rainbow-bright bangles and eye-catching graphic bags provide the perfect flourish to warm-weather staples, like cutoffs and neutral basics, or, for the more adventurous dresser, mixed with neon dresses and printed pants.
In order to seamlessly translate this runway trend into everyday wear, we suggest looking to the fashionable and famous for wardrobe ideas. Take, for example Kate Hudson, who was seen toting a feisty fringe bag en route from the gym to a manicure in New York last month. Her ensemble is an ideal real-life interpretation of our featured runway look; the print-and-tassel bag adds a funky accent to her breezy silk dress while being large enough to perhaps house the script for her upcoming film Something Borrowed. Another great suggestion for this must-have accessory comes to us via Sienna Miller, who used a red and neon vintage tote to accent her musical festival basics at Glastonbury a few weeks ago. Miller's one-of-a-kind bag was actually picked up from a street vendor in Asia, further underscoring the globetrotting allure of this coveted accessory.
Of course, destination-chic iterations aren't the only way to play the bright boho game, as Sarah Jessica Parker demonstrated by with Halston Heritage's Tie Dye Sac Bag ($195) while strolling through Manhattan (while this exact style has unfortunately sold out for the season, Net-a-Porter will have a crinkled black leather version for fall!). The haute hippie hobo spruces up an otherwise neutral palette while invoking an artistic sensibility that harmonizes with her graphic tee. Though subtler in style, Rachel Bilson opted for a similarly artsy sack when she was snapped leaving the Blu Jam Café on Melrose. Bilson created a perfect daytime ensemble by contrasting a striped vintage purse with the free-spirited design of her vintage blouse.
Though these totes definitely have a global-bazaar spirit, that doesn't mean you need to search the world over to find them! Au contraire, we have plenty of ideas to help you snag these trendsetters' looks. Our favorite versions of these patchwork, mirrored, and tasseled totes come to us via celebrity stylist Simone Harouche, a former subject for our insider's picks! Her lineÂ--Simone Camille is comprised of an amazing collection of handmade, colorful sacks, including favorites like the 3 Tier Messenger Bag ($630) and the 3 Tier Original Bag ($975). While her line is filled with lust-worthy investments, if you're looking for more of a quick fix we'd suggest Asos's Premium Patchwork Mirrored Ethnic Bag ($77). Try pairing either with American Vintage's Button Down Tank Dress ($101) in Navy to recreate Hudson's summer-in-the-city look. Yet, if it's Bilson's or SJP's style your find yourself craving, try picking up Cleobella's Ikat Boho Sack ($68) and mixing it in with Joie's Harmony Top ($228) to recreate the former's contrasting pattern ensemble or Current/Elliott's Captain Trousers ($162) if it's the latter's look that strikes your fancy!Â--Liza Kaplan

Video: State Lamakers Vow To Fix Cancer Research Mess
BUFFALO, NY - Two New York State lawmakers are vowing to try to untangle a mess, which has prevented the money donated by state taxpayers to aid prostate cancer research from being utilized for that purpose.
"This is, in my judgment, outrageous," said NYS Sen. Michael Ranzenhofer (R-61st District), regarding the prostate cancer research fund, one of eight causes state residents can support through a check off on their tax forms.
For reasons no one seems to be able to fully explain, the prostate cancer research fund is the only one of the eight, which hasn't disbursed any of the money collected since it was established by an act of the legislature in 2004.
To date that totals $1.8 million according to the NYS Comptroller's office.
"I think the simple solution is to introduce and pass legislation to allow the prostate cancer donation to go the same route as the other ones have, because the other ones don't have then problems of having the money held up," Ranzenhofer told WGRZ-TV
While money donated for various causes through state tax returns generally go into funds administered by state boards or agencies, the prostate cancer fund is unique, in that donations were set up go to an outside nonprofit, the New York Coalition to Cure Prostate Cancer.
Two years ago, the IRS revoked that group's federal tax-exempt status for failing to submit required returns three years in a row.
It has no website or readily available contact information online.
"If that particular not for profit agency actually lost status, what we should be doing is to find another one to take its place," said NYS Sen. Mark Grisanti (R-60th District).
The news is particularly disconcerting to Darryl Mitteldorf, chairman of the New York State Prostate Cancer Coalition.
For one thing, though the name of his cancer fighting group is closely similar to the New York Coalition to Cure Prostate Cancer, the two groups are not at all associated.
For another, he says "legitimate" groups like his view the availability of the money as a "stunning opportunity".
"There's a great deal of money that could be used to help men with prostate cancer in New York state that seems to have been designed to be diverted to an organization in California," Mitteldorf told the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
"We feel that money could be best used as intended - to serve the men of New York state with improved prostate cancer research and awareness."
Mitteldorf said his group existed for four or five years before the nonprofit that was set up to handle tax checkoff donations. After the 2004 law passed, Mitteldorf said, he tried to contact both Bruno's office and the Prostate Cancer Foundation to find out how his group could get involved but never got a satisfactory answer.
"This is who the money was meant to serve," said Mitteldorf, who also is executive director of the New York City-based prostate cancer group Malecare.
According to Ranzenhofer, from the money isn't "gone"...It's just that, as of right now, there's no effective means to shake it loose.
"We just have to make that avenue a lot easier than it is right now," he said. "The people that had to know about it, so they could do something about it, didn't know. We have to correct the problem and then once it's corrected, go back and try and figure out why it happened, and to make sure it doesn't happen again."

17 U.S. Code § 407 - Deposit of copies or phonorecords for Library of Congress
(a) Except as provided by subsection (c), and subject to the provisions of subsection (e), the owner of copyright or of the exclusive right of publication in a work published in the United States shall deposit, within three months after the date of such publication—
(2) if the work is a sound recording, two complete phonorecords of the best edition, together with any printed or other visually perceptible material published with such phonorecords.
Neither the deposit requirements of this subsection nor the acquisition provisions of subsection (e) are conditions of copyright protection.
(b) The required copies or phonorecords shall be deposited in the Copyright Office for the use or disposition of the Library of Congress. The Register of Copyrights shall, when requested by the depositor and upon payment of the fee prescribed by section 708, issue a receipt for the deposit.
(c) The Register of Copyrights may by regulation exempt any categories of material from the deposit requirements of this section, or require deposit of only one copy or phonorecord with respect to any categories. Such regulations shall provide either for complete exemption from the deposit requirements of this section, or for alternative forms of deposit aimed at providing a satisfactory archival record of a work without imposing practical or financial hardships on the depositor, where the individual author is the owner of copyright in a pictorial, graphic, or sculptural work and
(ii) the work has been published in a limited edition consisting of numbered copies, the monetary value of which would make the mandatory deposit of two copies of the best edition of the work burdensome, unfair, or unreasonable.
(d) At any time after publication of a work as provided by subsection (a), the Register of Copyrights may make written demand for the required deposit on any of the persons obligated to make the deposit under subsection (a). Unless deposit is made within three months after the demand is received, the person or persons on whom the demand was made are liable—
(2) to pay into a specially designated fund in the Library of Congress the total retail price of the copies or phonorecords demanded, or, if no retail price has been fixed, the reasonable cost to the Library of Congress of acquiring them; and
(e) With respect to transmission programs that have been fixed and transmitted to the public in the United States but have not been published, the Register of Copyrights shall, after consulting with the Librarian of Congress and other interested organizations and officials, establish regulations governing the acquisition, through deposit or otherwise, of copies or phonorecords of such programs for the collections of the Library of Congress.
(1) The Librarian of Congress shall be permitted, under the standards and conditions set forth in such regulations, to make a fixation of a transmission program directly from a transmission to the public, and to reproduce one copy or phonorecord from such fixation for archival purposes.
(2) Such regulations shall also provide standards and procedures by which the Register of Copyrights may make written demand, upon the owner of the right of transmission in the United States, for the deposit of a copy or phonorecord of a specific transmission program. Such deposit may, at the option of the owner of the right of transmission in the United States, be accomplished by gift, by loan for purposes of reproduction, or by sale at a price not to exceed the cost of reproducing and supplying the copy or phonorecord. The regulations established under this clause shall provide reasonable periods of not less than three months for compliance with a demand, and shall allow for extensions of such periods and adjustments in the scope of the demand or the methods for fulfilling it, as reasonably warranted by the circumstances. Willful failure or refusal to comply with the conditions prescribed by such regulations shall subject the owner of the right of transmission in the United States to liability for an amount, not to exceed the cost of reproducing and supplying the copy or phonorecord in question, to be paid into a specially designated fund in the Library of Congress.
(3) Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to require the making or retention, for purposes of deposit, of any copy or phonorecord of an unpublished transmission program, the transmission of which occurs before the receipt of a specific written demand as provided by clause (2).
Source(Pub. L. 94–553, title I, § 101,Oct. 19, 1976, 90 Stat. 2579; Pub. L. 100–568, § 8,Oct. 31, 1988, 102 Stat. 2859; Pub. L. 105–80, § 12(a)(11),Nov. 13, 1997, 111 Stat. 1535.)
Historical and Revision Notes
house report no. 94–1476
The provisions of sections 407 through 411 of the bill mark another departure from the present law. Under the 1909 statute, deposit of copies for the collections of the Library of Congress and deposit of copies for purposes of copyright registration have been treated as the same thing. The bill's basic approach is to regard deposit and registration as separate though closely related: deposit of copies or phonorecords for the Library of Congress is mandatory, but exceptions can be made for material the Library neither needs nor wants; copyright registration is not generally mandatory, but is a condition of certain remedies for copyright infringement. Deposit for the Library of Congress can be, and in the bulk of cases undoubtedly will be, combined with copyright registration.
The basic requirement of the deposit provision, section 407, is that within 3 months after a work has been published with notice of copyright in the United States, the "owner of copyright or of the exclusive right of publication" must deposit two copies or phonorecords of the work in the Copyright Office. The Register of Copyrights is authorized to exempt any category of material from the deposit requirements. Where the category is not exempted and deposit is not made, the Register may demand it; failure to comply would be penalized by a fine.
Under the present law deposits for the Library of Congress must be combined with copyright registration, and failure to comply with a formal demand for deposit and registration results in complete loss of copyright. Under section 407 of the bill, the deposit requirements can be satisfied without ever making registration, and subsection (a) makes clear that deposit "is not a condition of copyright protection." A realistic fine, coupled with the increased inducements for voluntary registration and deposit under other sections of the bill, seems likely to produce a more effective deposit system than the present one. The bill's approach will also avoid the danger that, under a divisible copyright, one copyright owner's rights could be destroyed by another owner's failure to deposit.
Although the basic deposit requirements are limited to works "published with notice of copyright in the United States," they would become applicable as soon as a work first published abroad is published in this country through the distribution of copies or phonorecords that are either imported or are part of an American edition. With respect to all types or works other than sound recordings, the basic obligation is to deposit "two complete copies of the best edition"; the term "best edition," as defined in section 101, makes clear that the Library of Congress is entitled to receive copies of phonorecords from the edition it believes best suits its needs regardless of the quantity or quality of other U.S. editions that may also have been published before the time of deposit. Once the deposit requirements for a particular work have been satisfied under section 407, however, the Library cannot claim deposit of future editions unless they represent newly copyrightable works under section 103.
The deposit requirement for sound recordings includes "two complete phonorecords of the best edition" and any other visually-perceptible material published with the phonorecords. The reference here is to the text or pictorial matter appearing on record sleeves and album covers or embodied in separate leaflets or booklets included in a sleeve, album, or other container. The required deposit in the case of a sound recording would extend to the entire "package" and not just to the disk, tape, or other phonorecord included as part of it.
Deposits under section 407, although made in the Copyright Office, are "for the use or disposition of the Library of Congress." Thus, the fundamental criteria governing regulations issued under section 407 (c), which allows exemptions from the deposit requirements for certain categories of works, would be the needs and wants of the Library. The purpose of this provision is to make the deposit requirements as flexible as possible, so that there will be no obligation to make deposits where it serves no purpose, so that only one copy or phonorecord may be deposited where two are not needed, and so that reasonable adjustments can be made to meet practical needs in special cases. The regulations, in establishing special categories for these purposes, would necessarily balance the value of the copies or phonorecords to the collections of the Library of Congress against the burdens and costs to the copyright owner of providing them.
The Committee adopted an amendment to subsection (c) ofsection 407, aimed at meeting the concerns expressed by representatives of various artists' groups concerning the deposit of expensive art works and graphics published in limited editions. Under the present law, optional deposit of photographs is permitted for various classes of works, but not for fine prints, and this has resulted in many artists choosing to forfeit copyright protection rather than bear the expense of depositing "two copies of the best edition." To avoid this unfair result, the last sentence of subsection (c) would require the Register to issue regulations under which such works would either be exempted entirely from the mandatory deposit or would be subject to an appropriate alternative form of deposit.
If, within three months after the Register of Copyrights has made a formal demand for deposit in accordance with section 407 (d), the person on whom the demand was made has not complied, that person becomes liable to a fine up to $250 for each work, plus the "total retail price of the copies or phonorecords demanded." If no retail price has been fixed, clause (2) of subsection (d) establishes the additional amount as "the reasonable cost to the Library of Congress of acquiring them." Thus, where the copies or phonorecords are not available for sale through normal trade channels—as would be true of many motion picture films, video tapes, and computer tapes, for example—the item of cost to be included in the fine would be equal to the basic expense of duplicating the copies or phonorecords plus a reasonable amount representing what it would have cost the Library to obtain them under its normal acquisitions procedures, if they had been available.
There have been cases under the present law in which the mandatory deposit provisions have been deliberately and repeatedly ignored, presumably on the assumption that the Library is unlikely to enforce them. In addition to the penalties provided in the current bill, the last clause of subsection (d) would add a fine of $2,500 for willful or repeated failure or refusal to deposit upon demand.
The Committee also amended section 407 [this section] by adding a new subsection (e), with conforming amendments of sections 407 (a) and 408 (b). These amendments are intended to provide a basis for the Library of Congress to acquire, as a part of the copyright deposit system, copies or recordings of non-syndicated radio and television programs, without imposing any hardships on broadcasters. Under subsection (e) the Library is authorized to tape programs off the air in all cases and may "demand" that the broadcaster supply the Library with a copy or phonorecord of a particular program. However, this "demand" authority is extremely limited: (1) The broadcaster is not required to retain any recording of a program after it has been transmitted unless a demand has already been received; (2) the demand would cover only a particular program; "blanket" demands would not be permitted; (3) the broadcaster would have the option of supplying the demand by gift, by loan for purposes of reproduction, or by sale at cost; and (4) the penalty for willful failure or refusal to comply with a demand is limited to the cost of reproducing and supplying the copy or phonorecord in question.
1997—Subsec. (d)(2). Pub. L. 105–80substituted "cost to the Library of Congress" for "cost of the Library of Congress".
1988—Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 100–568struck out "with notice of copyright" before "in the United States".
Effective Date of 1988 Amendment
Amendment by Pub. L. 100–568effective Mar. 1, 1989, with any cause of action arising under this title before such date being governed by provisions in effect when cause of action arose, see section 13 ofPub. L. 100–568, set out as a note under section 101 of this title.
Deposits and Registrations Made After December 31, 1977, in Response to Demand Under Predecessor Demand and Penalty Provisions
Pub. L. 94–553, title I, § 110,Oct. 19, 1976, 90 Stat. 2600, provided that: "The demand and penalty provisions of section 14 of title 17 as it existed on December 31, 1977, apply to any work in which copyright has been secured by publication with notice of copyright on or before that date, but any deposit and registration made after that date in response to a demand under that section shall be made in accordance with the provisions of title 17 as amended by the first section of this Act."

Sinusitis is a chronic ailment for which millions of doctor visits are made annually. Living with one sinus infection after another can make your daily life a miserable ordeal. But what many people don't realize is that sinusitis can be prevented and cured relatively easily.
What are Sinuses?
A sinus is simply a hollow space, of which there are many in the human body. The four pairs inside the skull are called the paranasal sinuses, and their names and locations are as follows:
Frontal—Over the eyes in the brow area
Maxillary—Inside each cheekbone
Ethmoids—Behind the bridge of the nose
Sphenoids—Upper region of the nose and behind the eyes
The paranasal sinuses lighten the skull and give resonance to the voice. The sinuses open into the nose and are lined with the same kind of tissue that lines the inside of the nose. The same things that can cause swelling in the nose—such as allergies or infection—can also affect the sinuses.
The tissue lining the sinuses normally secretes a fluid called mucus. This fluid helps to keep the tissue moist and to flush away particles inhaled when you breathe. When the tissue inside the sinuses becomes inflamed, this mucus discharge is increased. Over time, air trapped inside the swollen sinuses can create painful pressure inside the head. Similarly, when air cannot enter the sinuses because of the swollen tissue at the opening, a vacuum can be created, which also causes pain. This is what is known as a "sinus headache."
What Are the Symptoms of Sinusitis?
A sinus infection may produce different kinds of symptoms, depending on which of the sinuses are affected. One of the most common symptoms of sinusitis is headache, especially when you first wake up in the morning. Other symptoms, and the sinuses that may be affected, may include:
Pain in the middle of the forehead (frontal sinuses)
Aching of the upper jaw and teeth (maxillary sinuses)
Swelling and pain around the eyes (ethmoid sinuses)
Earache, neck pain, or a deep, aching pain at the top of the head (sphenoid sinuses)
With a severe sinus infection, you may have a fever or feel weak, tired and aching. You may have a cough that worsens at night or a runny or stuffed-up nose. Drainage of mucus from the sinuses down the back of the throat can cause a sore throat.
What Causes Sinusitis?
Most cases of sinusitis are caused by infection with a virus and clear up on their own, without treatment. If the sinuses remain blocked for a long time, though, a secondary infection may result. The secondary infection is caused by bacteria that are normally present within the respiratory tract. These bacteria multiply and cause a sinus infection when they are unable to drain out of the blocked sinuses.
When normal mucus drainage does not occur during you can experience symptoms ranging from: drainage of a thick, yellow or greenish discharge from the nose or down the back of the throat; nasal obstruction or congestion; tenderness and swelling around the eyes, cheeks, nose and forehead; and/or a reduced sense of smell and taste.
This resulting sinusitis can be classified into two types:
Acute sinusitis. This temporary inflammation of the sinuses is known as acute sinusitis. During acute sinusitis the mucous membranes of your nose, sinuses and throat become inflamed, possibly from a pre-existing cold or allergies. Swelling obstructs the sinus openings and prevents normal mucus drainage, causing mucus and pressure to build up.
Chronic sinusitis. When symptoms become more frequent or persistent however sinus infections may cause chronic sinus inflammation and symptoms. If you have more than three sinus infections in a year or experience symptoms for longer than 12 weeks you could have chronic sinusitis. More than 50 percent of persons with moderate to severe asthma also have chronic sinusitis.
How Is Sinusitis Treated?
The first step in treating sinusitis is to unblock the nasal passages. This allows proper drainage of the sinuses, which goes a long way toward flushing out a bacterial infection. Decongestants are usually used for this purpose.
Be very careful with the use of topical over-the-counter decongestants. Overuse of these products can result in a "rebound effect" and can actually make your stuffy nose worse. After the effects of these products wear off, the tissue inside the nose and sinuses tends to become swollen. This can prompt you to use more of the medication, after which these tissues swell even more. A vicious cycle can begin if you keep using the product.
Beyond this, treatment depends on what the cause of sinusitis is thought to be and how severe a particular case is. If a bacterial infection is present, antibiotics are used to combat it. To reduce inflammation, your doctor may also prescribe a steroid nasal spray. This medication also helps to reduce congestion and does not produce a rebound effect. An additional medication may be either prescribed or obtained over the counter to combat the pain of sinusitis.
In certain cases some patients may also be candidates for sinus surgery which includes conventional sinus surgery, known as functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS), or a less-invasive option that uses a balloon catheter, called "balloon sinuplasty," to open up blocked sinus passageways, restoring normal sinus drainage. These treatment options are recommended for patients with chronic sinusitis symptoms that will not go away with antibiotics or medication.
How Can I Prevent Sinusitis?
The best course for preventing sinusitis is to keep your nasal passages as free and clear as possible. This is particularly important if you have allergies.
If you have chronic sinusitis, your doctor may prescribe a steroid nasal spray. Taken every day, this medication will help to keep the sinuses from becoming inflamed.
To the extent possible, avoid exposure to the things that trigger your allergies. Keep cigarette smoke out of your home and avoid it in other places as much as possible.
Most important, keep your doctor informed of your symptoms. Together you can devise a plan of action to take before a minor case of sinusitis turns into a bigger health problem.

CAPE VINCENT BP Wind Energy and stakeholders of the developers proposed Cape Vincent Wind Project the town government and the Development Authority of the North Country again are at odds over the definition of a meaningful dialogue.
In a recent letter to BP, the attorney for DANC urged the wind developer to provide additional information to the development authoritys engineers a request made four months ago.
They have not been provided with the additional information and studies set forth in our April 19, 2013, letter to you. DANC staff further advises us that there has been no meaningful dialogue with your project development team and DANCs engineering department, said Dennis G. Whelpley, of Schwerzmann & Wise P.C., in his Aug. 16 letter to wind project manager Richard Chandler.
The letter also was forwarded to the state Public Service Commission.
Mr. Chandler responded by email to the Times, stating that DANC had been provided with information in June.
We provided a comprehensive package of information to DANC in June as a follow-up to our April communication with DANC. We remain committed to working with DANC and other stakeholders to ensure a successful project, he said.
The Cape Vincent Town Council, which has criticized BP several times in the past for the firms unresponsiveness, claims that BP would not even provide a timetable for a six-hour teleconference that had been planned for the end of July but canceled at the last minute.
Supervisor Urban C. Hirschey said the town had requested additional information regarding the stipulations process and asked that BP provide a more detailed agenda so that Cape Vincent consultants could call and chime in when needed rather than idly standing by for hours.
From our standpoint, we made a reasonable request, Mr. Hirschey said.
The teleconference is yet to be rescheduled.
We continue to be open for discussions with the town of Cape Vincent. We cannot comment further on the stipulations process or how the town wants to engage with us in that process, Mr. Chandler said in his email to the Times.

Mexican trucks may begin hauling freight throughout the United States by the end of this month or early September under a bilateral trade agreement that resolves a long-standing trade dispute, but not the controversy over driving goods across the U.S.-Mexican border.
Under the pilot program, announced last month by the U.S. Department of Transportation, about 900 Mexican trucks will be hauling goods throughout the United States within the next three years. USA Today reported Wednesday that the pact continues to draw fire in the United States from the nation's largest transportation union, a national association of independent truckers, and some members of Congress.
"We think it's unsafe, unfair and wrong for America," Jim Hoffa, president of the Teamsters union, told the nationwide daily. "It's a danger to highway safety. ... It will cost thousands of trucking and warehouse jobs."

He restored the Buckley Building in Carthage and turned an abandoned Adams school and a Watertown warehouse into apartment buildings.
But then Michael A. Treanor walked away from his proposed Woolworth project, and the Long Island developer has been in and out of court trying to complete the Roxy Hotel in Cape Vincent.
These days, north country officials who have worked with him in the past dont know whats next for the developer. And repeated phone calls from the Times have gone unreturned.
Two years after the Cape Vincent project began, Mr. Treanor has assured village officials the remaining work will resume soon. John B. DeFrancesco, former president of the Cape Vincent Local Development Corp., said he talked with Mr. Treanor as recently as last week about his plans to finally finish the $2 million project, which is to include a 15-room quaint hotel, a pub/restaurant and five townhouses constructed behind the Broadway landmark.
I dont have any worries about the project, Mr. DeFrancesco said, adding he believes it is finally back on track after stalling about a year ago.
The hotel and the restaurant, Monaghans Irish Pub, opened during the 2011 summer tourism season, but four of the five townhouses have yet to be finished. Even though they are 90 percent done, work stopped last winter when a series of mechanical liens were filed against Mr. Treanor and his general contractor, Akeys Construction Enterprise Inc., Lacona.
Since then, it has been a waiting game and a case of Catch-22.
The Empire State Development Corp. would not release about $500,000 in Restore NY funding the village obtained to help finance the project in 2009. And the work would not resume until the liens were cleared.
We had to get the liens lifted, said Mr. DeFranceso, who put together the application for the $1.532 million Restore NY money.
Last month, state Supreme Court Justice Hugh A. Gilbert ordered one of Mr. Treanors companies, Cape Vincent Roxy LLC, released from about $315,000 in mechanics liens attached to the property.
Holding liens against the Roxy were: O.D. Greene Lumber, Adams, $237,020; Richard Spence Drywall, town of Mexico, $14,460; Sanford & Burtis Fire Equipment, Fulton, $4,970; Thousand Islands Heating & Air Conditioning, LaFargeville, $8,500; City Electric Co. Inc., Watertown, $9,117, and SRI Fire Sprinkler LLC, Albany, $49,600.
In November, Mr. Treanor deposited with the court $94,680, which represented the difference between the amount he had agreed to pay Akeys Construction Enterprise Inc. to act as general contractor on the project and the amount still owed on the $1,025,540 contract.
The $94,680 will remain in trust with the court and probably will be disbursed to creditors at the courts discretion, but only by further court order.
With the liens issue solved, Mr. DeFrancesco said he hopes the townhouses will be completed and ready for occupancy in about three months. Over that time, he and village officials will continue to work with Empire State Development representatives on getting them to agree to reimburse the village with the state funding, possibly this spring.
But the summer tourism season is long over, and the hotel and restaurant are dark these days. A sign on the front door shows they closed Oct. 1 and will reopen next year.
Amid complaints about how infrequently they were open this year, Mr. DeFrancesco has no complaints about how the developer has operated the business. Restaurants such as Monaghans Irish Pub typically close after the tourists go home, he said.
Its expected, he said.
changing course in city
But Mr. Treanors bowing out of the project to turn the Woolworth building in Watertown into rental housing was not expected. Developer David Gallo, a partner who joined him just last summer, and Erich H. Seber, who owns a Maryland construction consulting company, have taken over redeveloping the Public Square landmark. They are in the process of buying the six-story building from him for $400,000, and they plan to convert it into 50 upper-floor, affordable housing apartments and 11,000 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor.
Recently, Mr. Gallo, who is responsible for arranging the financing for the $10.4 million project, said the men decided he would be in a better position to move the project forward.
When he was asked about his former partners current ventures, Mr. Gallo had little to say.
We dont have any relationship with him, Mr. Gallo said.
Since taking over the project, the new partners have put together a team consisting of the Purcell Construction Corp., Watertown, and Lecesse Construction, Rochester, as contractors and the Syracuse-based Crawford & Stearns Architects and Preservation Planners to help with the projects design. They intend to use a combination of a $2.5 million Restore NY grant, tax credits and other financing.
Mr. Treanor acted as the construction manager and hired subcontractors to complete the work, said Kenneth A. Mix, the citys planning and community development coordinator. He worked with Mr. Treanor on the 30-unit, $2.9 million Riverview Plaza Apartments project on Newell Street two years ago.
The methods are different this time, Mr. Mix said, adding Mr. Treanor was very hands-on and made all the decisions about the Riverview Plaza project.
Originally, Mr. Treanor proposed a boutique hotel and street-level restaurants for the Woolworth building. But he had to switch gears after the economy took a downturn and he could not obtain enough financing.
Always skeptical about the hotel concept, Mayor Jeffrey E. Graham now says he never thought it would work. A downtown hotel would have difficulty succeeding, he said.
Mr. Treanors other interests in Northern New York include the 24-unit Pinehurst Apartments, which he restored in 2006 from the old Adams High School and Scholtz Elementary School, and the Buckley Building in Carthage, which was converted to 13 apartments and commercial space in a nearly $2 million revitalization project three years later.
Village of Adams Mayor Patricia C. Sweetland was not surprised to hear Mr. Treanor failed to follow through on the Woolworth building. In Adams, he promised to include landscaping for a buffer zone, fix the old school playground and repair a fence when he proposed Pinehurst Apartments, but none of that work has been done, she said.
Since then, it has gone through a series of building managers and the property has been cited for building code violations, she said. Tenants also have caused problems, she said, noting three people were arrested on drug charges after police found in one apartment 8 ounces of cocaine with a street value of $130,000.
In recent months, however, the situation has improved at the apartment building, she added.
But Mr. Treanor can be difficult to deal with, she said, adding Watertown officials should be relieved he is no longer involved in the Woolworth project.
Thats probably a good thing, she said, declining to elaborate.
