Reflections on the FBI's Attempt to Dragoon Apple Into Subverting iPhone Security
By Jennifer Granick on February 24, 2016 at 11:37 am
On Monday, I wrote a post for Just Security where I reflected on last week's news concerning the FBI's attempts to coerce Apple into creating a forensic bypass to the iPhone passcode lockout. I wrote that we live in a software-defined world. In 2000, Lawrence Lessig wrote that Code is Law — the software and hardware that comprise cyberspace are powerful regulators that can either protect or threaten liberty. A few years ago, Mark Andreessen wrote that software was eating the world, pointing to a trend that is hockey sticking today. Software is redefining everything, even national defense.

Federal judge shines a spotlight on the "going dark" debate
By Jennifer Granick on October 14, 2015 at 12:07 pm
Last Friday, a New York federal judge joined in the contentious current debate over whether tech companies should be forced to provide law enforcement the ability to decipher encrypted data stored on smartphones and in the cloud.

Things We STILL Need To Know About Domestic Spying
By Jennifer Granick on June 15, 2015 at 1:57 pm
In two years, section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act will expire. It is essential the public to have confidence that any reforms to section 702 will actually address problems with PRISM and Upstream surveillance. To get that confidence, we have to know a lot more about how the intelligence community is using section 702. That understanding requires more investigation.
Shloss v. Estate of Joyce
After the Estate of James Joyce refused to allow a scholar to quote Joyce in her book, we successfully defended her right under the fair use doctrine to use the quotes she needed to illustrate her scholarship. After we prevailed in the case, the Estate paid $240,000 of our client's legal fees.
Kahle v. Gonzales
In this case, two archives challenged statutes that extended copyright terms unconditionally—the Copyright Renewal Act and the Copyright Term Extension Act (CTEA)—as unconstitutional under Copyright Clause and the First Amendment.
The All Writs Act, Software Licenses, and Why Judges Should Ask More Questions
Pending before federal magistrate judge James Orenstein is the government's request for an order obligating Apple, Inc. to unlock an iPhone and thereby assist prosecutors in decrypting data the government has seized and is authorized to search pursuant to a warrant.
Update on Apple's Compelled-Decryption Case
Last week, we wrote about an order from a federal magistrate judge in New York that questioned the government's ability, under an ancient federal law called the All Writs Act, to compel Apple to decrypt a locked device which the government had seized and is authorized to search pursuant to a warrant.

Sloppy Cyber Threat Sharing Is Surveillance by Another Name
Cross-posted from Just Security.
This post is the latest installment of our "Monday Reflections" feature, in which a different Just Security editor examines the big stories from the previous week or looks ahead to key developments on the horizon.
A Sunset Is A Beautiful Thing
In the wake of a recent appellate court's decision that the NSA's domestic dragnet collection of phone call records is illegal, political support for maintaining the legal provision that the government used to justify the program has all but vanished. For the first time in a dozen years, we have a real chance at ending one of the most abused and misused parts of US surveillance law. Congress should allow section 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act to expire.
Microsoft sues U.S. government over secret requests for user data
"However, it's unclear how Microsoft's lawsuit will fare. It would be "premature to guess" how successful Microsoft is likely to be, Jennifer Granick, the director of civil liberties at the Stanford Center for Internet and Society, said in an email."
Microsoft sues for right to tell customers when US government requests emails
""How can we tell if the court process is legitimate if so much of it is under seal?" asked Jennifer Granick, director of civil liberties at Stanford Law School's Center for Internet and Society."
Microsoft sues government, expanding privacy debate to cloud
""The lawsuit is asking for two things," said Jennifer Granick, the director of civil liberties at Stanford's Center for Internet and Society.
"That people be notified eventually, if they are spied on, and, two, it's asking for a much more scrupulous and discriminating use of gag orders, which are now seemingly routine when they are supposed to be extraordinary.""
Apple gets short-term win, but new mysterious FBI unlocking method looms
"Jennifer Granick, the director of civil liberties at the Stanford Center for Internet and Society, said that these new government decryption capabilities are not good for privacy and ever-expanding government surveillance.
Apple Might Be Forced To Reveal & Share iPhone Unlocking Code Widely
"n addition, defense counsel would undoubtedly demand the right for their own third-party experts to have access not only to the source code, but to further demand the right to simulate the testing environment and run this code on their own systems in order to confirm the veracity of evidence.

Risky Business #417 -- PlayPen ruling to let FBI off leash?
July 8, 2016
In this week's feature interview we're chatting with Stanford's very own Jennifer Granick about a recent ruling in a Virginia court that appears to give the FBI permission to hack into any computer it wants, sans warrant. Well that's what the headlines are screaming, anyway. But as you'll hear, it's not quite that black and white.
The Seeds Of Apple's Standoff With DOJ May Have Been Sown In Brooklyn
February 22, 2016
""What was remarkable was that the public hadn't seen the argument surfaced," says Jennifer Granick at the Stanford Center for Internet and Society. She says Judge Orenstein was trying to stoke a public debate. "Judge Orenstein had concerns about whether the government's legal argument was a valid legal argument."

May 28, 2015
"A year ago, a European Court said people had a right to demand Google take down certain search results about them. Theright to be forgotten was born.

Associated Press file
KVUTZAT YAVNE, Israel � Israel has developed some of the world�s most advanced solar energy equipment and enjoys a nearly endless supply of sunshine, but when it comes to deploying large-scale solar technology at home, the country remains in the dark ages.
Solar power provides just a tiny percentage of Israel�s energy needs, leaving it far behind colder, cloudier counterparts in Europe. Israeli solar companies, frustrated by government bureaucracy, have taken their expertise abroad.
Fifty years ago, Israel was at the front of the pack, with simple solar water heaters on top of its apartment buildings. They�re still there, but little else has moved forward.
Advanced solar power has come to the tiny community of Kvutzat Yavne, but its small scale is more an example of what can be done than what has been done.
Nestled in grapevines and pomegranate trees in south-central Israel, the 16 glimmering installations, each of them 14 feet tall, are an odd sight in this traditional collective farm, which also features a pickling factory and a barn.
The solar panels provide the community with nearly all of its hot water, and the electricity they generate is sold to Israel�s main energy provider, the Israel Electric Corp.
Miriam Schlusselberg, a secretary at the kibbutz, said the 320 residents are �very excited� to get solar power in their backyard. But she also acknowledged that solar energy on a large scale �is not going to develop on its own unless people start investing in it.�
The field in Kvutzat Yavne, built by the Israeli company ZenithSolar Ltd. in 2009, has a maximum capacity of about a quarter of a megawatt of combined thermal and electric power. That�s not even a dent in Israel�s overall capacity of about 12,000 megawatts.
�This is, unfortunately for us, our only project in Israel,� said Roy Segev, co-founder of ZenithSolar. �I think there was a poor policy from the Israeli government. It was a total neglect of the possibility to create a big industry in Israel.�
Segev said there has not been enough government investment in solar manufacturing or startup companies. He pointed out that industry leaders such as Germany and Italy have outpaced Israel in solar development, despite having fewer sunny days and less powerful sunrays. The Germans, for instance, generate nearly 12 times as much solar power per capita as their Israeli counterparts, according to official statistics from both countries.
Israel has a solar capacity � the amount of energy it could continuously generate in ideal conditions � of 212 megawatts, most of which comes from rooftop installations, according to the electric company. That accounts for less than 2 percent of the nationwide capacity and falls well short of the country�s 2014 goal of 1,480 megawatts from solar sources.
As a result, �no one in the international community is going to take Israel seriously going forward,� said Jon Cohen, CEO of the Arava Power Co. �The natural resource exists, the real national need exist � it�s really a mystery why (solar) is being blocked.�
Cohen spearheaded Israel�s first major commercial solar project, the Ketura Sun plant. The 5-megawatt facility is in the Negev desert, an arid, sparsely populated wedge of land that makes up the southern two-thirds of Israel. The area enjoys around 330 sunny days a year, making it an ideal site for solar power.
But no more large-scale projects have launched since Ketura Sun began operating in June 2011.
�We thought we�d be raising the pioneer flag,� Cohen said, pointing out that his company fought for four years to get the necessary approvals and permits for the field. �We were hoping we�d have more to show on the ground promptly, and here we are a year later, and we haven�t gone far.�
There are some signs of change.
In March, Ashalim Sun PV, a U.S.-Israeli consortium, won a government tender to construct three major solar power plants in the Negev that will provide a combined 250 megawatts of power.
The plant is not expected to open until 2015 at the earliest.
Cohen has 10 projects in the works that envisage producing a total of 100 megawatts when completed. Three are still awaiting government approval, a situation he described as �tense and endless.�
Smadar Bat-Adam, chief of staff for Israel�s Energy and Water Resources Ministry, acknowledged that red tape has been an issue. �We are trying to solve the bureaucratic problems,� she said.
Bat-Adam said the overambitious 2014 target was set several years ago, before Israel had substantial solar infrastructure or regulation. While that may not be reached, she said Israel is on track to reach its 2020 benchmark of generating 10 percent of its electricity needs from renewable sources.
�When it comes to infrastructure projects, it always takes time,� she said.
Israel gets most of its power from burning imported fossil fuels, but there is interest in developing alternative sources such as wind and solar. Israel is also rapidly developing natural gas reserves off its Mediterranean coast.
Recognizing solar power�s potential, the Israeli government set up a �feed-in tariff� incentive in 2008, agreeing to pay developers higher-than-retail prices for solar energy fed back into the grid.
Because the government does not want to overpay, it has repeatedly adjusted the tariff as solar equipment has gotten cheaper. As a result, many large projects are on hold, awaiting a firm price.
Many analysts and industry professionals believe this uncertainty has hindered investment.
�The sad reality is that we�ve raised quite a lot from Israeli investors, and we are taking this money and investing it overseas because the industries are more consistent,� said Nimrod Goor, a founding managing partner at Helios Energy Investments LP, an Israel-based infrastructure equity fund.
The situation has made some experts skeptical of Israel�s commitment to harvesting its ample sunlight.
Uri Marinov, an environmental management professor at the Inter-Disciplinary Center in Herzliya and a former director of the Israeli Environment Ministry, said decision makers are making �big, big mistakes� through unnecessary regulations.
�Anyone who wants to build a solar field should be able to do it,� he said.
Israel is still a leader in solar research and development. Segev teamed with Ben-Gurion University of the Negev to produce a little household system that reflects concentrated sunlight onto a receiver, producing electricity with roughly two times the efficiency of standard panels. Segev hopes the new model, named the Z10, will find a market in homes throughout Israel.
One of the Z10�s advantages? �It doesn�t need any government support or intervention to set it up,� Segev said.

Last week (15-Nov) in Vilnius/Lithuania and yesterday in Athens/Greek we delivered our first two Architects Forums explaining and discussing the concepts and challenges of Software as a Service (SaaS). The events had good attendence and we received very positive feedback.
The architects especially seems to like the "Long Tail" aspect, and my guess is that the ones in the audience who are from ISVs like that approach because that means to open up new business with new customers who otherwise were out of reach. And for some reason "new business" is more attractive than moving exisiting - hopefully satisfied - customers to a new delivery model.
In the One-Day forum we delivered four 75-Min talks:
In Lithuania I took the challenge to deliver all four talks - even the infrastructure one - and happily survived that challenge as a solution architect:-) In Athens my colleague Kevin Sangwell took the fourth talk and I happily could concentrate on my domain.
I've published my slides here (Kevin will publish his talk on his own blog).
After yesterdays event I was interviewd by the local Greek DotNet usergroup. They were interested in what it means to be a "Certified Architect". So I tried to explain the value proposition of the certification, what kind of competencies are required and how the process looks like. I hope that some Greek guys feel challenged and go for it.
Even in the dinner events around the Lithuanian forum the MCA was a topic that the attendees actively asked me to explain. For me this is a good sign: the architects certification really seems to be of interest.

Our Review:
The Premier Rewards Gold Card from our partner American Express is one of our favorite cards for spending. In our opinion, it is even better than the Business Gold Rewards Card for accruing Membership Rewards points—especially if you're a traveler.
The Premier Rewards Gold Card gives you triple miles on airfare purchased directly from airlines, double points at U.S. restaurants, gas stations, and supermarkets—and single points on everything else. The current initial sign up bonus for new card members is 25,000 Membership Rewards® points after completing a minimum spend of $2,000 in the first three months. The annual fee of $195 is waived for the first year of Card Membership—and this one is still worth keeping beyond the initial year if you're able to maximize the mileage.
The Facts:
- Receive 25,000 Membership Rewards® Points after you spend $2,000 on purchases on your new Card in your first 3 months of Card Membership.
- 3X points for flights booked directly with airlines. 2X points at US restaurants, US gas stations, and US supermarkets. 1X points on other purchases. Terms and limitations apply.
- No matter where you're traveling, when you use your Premier Rewards Gold Card there are no foreign transaction fees from American Express.

I use Stack Overflow quite a bit to research questions, and to ask a few as well. I also visit some of the other Stack Exchange sites, English Language and Usage, Webmasters, Graphic Design, Wordpress, Skeptics, Ask Ubuntu, UX, and Fitness and Nutrition.
My programming ventures began way back during the days of BBS's, and eventually evolved into website development. For the most part I use PHP, the old-school way, but I am trying to grasp JQuery, OOP, and other MVC frameworks.
I would like to think my programming is just a hobby, however, if you measure a hobby by the time spent doing it, then this must be more than a hobby! I enjoy the challenges of programming. and it keeps my mind occupied. I am always eager to learn and will answer a few questions too, but I am definitely more of a student than a teacher!

Chase in city ends in crashSeptember 02,2014Chase in city
ends in crash
An early morning car chase in Rutland City over the weekend ended with a crash into a home on Stratton Road, according to Rutland Police.
At about 12:30 a.m. Sunday, city police tried to stop a Audi sedan seen leaving what police described as a known drug location on Woodstock Avenue.
Rather than stop, the driver, who police say was Jason Davis, of Rutland, sped up, fleeing down East Street. Davis allegedly failed to stop at a number of stop signs on East Street and Jackson Avenue. The chase turned onto Stratton Road where Davis car allegedly went off the road while trying to traverse an intersection and crashed into a home and a tree at 172 Stratton Road.
Davis was uninjured in the crash, however police said passenger Carissa Redfield was taken by Regional Ambulance Service to Rutland Regional Medical Center where a spokeswoman said she was treated and released. Davis dog was also injured and was taken to the Rutland Veterinary Clinic, police said.
Davis, whose license was criminally suspended, was jailed on $15,000 bail.
He is scheduled to appear in Rutland criminal court today to answer to charges of eluding police, driving with a suspended license and gross negligent operation of a motor vehicle.MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...

Must-See Video: Science Girl Explains How Dirty Energy Causes Dirty Weather
I think we can all be thankful for precocious children everywhere — they are the last great hope for homo sapiens.
29 Responses to Must-See Video: Science Girl Explains How Dirty Energy Causes Dirty Weather
Wonderful presentation. Now if we can just get enough people to really listen and pay attention and join in the
fight against dirty energy. It shouldn't be a fight to have clean energy and air, but unfortunately, there are many fighting against the needed change.
Demonstrations such as yours will help others realize that climate change is real and we each need to do what we can to help reverse it.
I am sitting here trying to grasp the importance and value of what I just witnessed. This young lady should be the Malala of America. A young lady willing to challenge any and all who stand between her and a healthy planet.
Folks if we don't figure out how to make this young lady Milly Cyrus of the climate hawks world, then we will have failed yet again to help Kade Benfield talk to the average American family. Kade, this is your serendipity moment. Whatever it takes.
And, Joe, you should interview that young lady. Her peers are begging to get behind something, someone. This is their Tonkin Gulf moment and we should be hyping every massage maker that can talk to them as a peer and not as a commercial.
Sorry. Obviously, spell checker failed me. "message" maker….And massaging messages is detrimental to our well being.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours Joe. Great video.
So there Science-Girl.. wish you had been in my class years ago.. what fun we all would have had with your great show about weather and we all had danced with you afterwards celebrating your lesson !! LOVE IT! Too bad I retired years ago. SO YOU!!!>> Keep up the good works. And if you are about to teach a fun class on any subject, please let me know…For I happen to be in the States then, who knows I might attend one of your entertaining lectures! liefs,(love)Kitty from Huizen in Holland.
Kaid, a good time to check in.
Happy holiday.
I hope she'll do a science fair project on the hazards of fracking, only she can use fake silica dust, diesel Benzene and Radium.
Poor girl. I hope she's brave, because, thanks to the dead souls, she's going to need to be.
Mulga: I attended a presentation at Sydney Uni by Martin Rees (Astronomer Royal, Sir, Lord, etc.) At one point he said "I only give humanity a 50% chance of surviving the 21st Century" The usual greybeards (me incl) nodded sagely. Then I thought Why the F*** aren't we screaming? Sh**, during the Vietnam war I was out on the street with a few million others the world over. We won, remember?
So why aren't we in Oz producing our own great kid to speak up, and where's the movement to get behind her. Why is GetUp avoiding a leadership role in this? Where's the Demo, for god's sake?
Folks, pick it up a notch. This is an event and person worthy of our best shot.
Hell n High Water has pretty much arrived… its certainly going to be Chaos…
Floods and gales bring chaos and misery to UK
Britain mops up after downpours and 70mph winds cause damage and disruption with more rain forecast for weekend
UK was battered again by rain and gales.
A band of heavy rain accompanied by winds of 70mph trundled across much of the country from the north-west, bringing with it chaos.
Conspiracy theory or what?

It beats me. There is no leadership from a debased 'Labor' Party that cannot even spell its own name, and has sold out its every principle. The Greens talk a good talk, but it's ineffective, and, if Abbott wins a major victory, by appealing to the most appalling instincts of xenophobia and greed, they will be totally irrelevant.
I fear some desperate act by those smart enough to see the Hell opening up before them. And that would play right into the Right's fascistic inclinations. Indeed some sort of 'Green 9/11' either real or a 'false flag' provocation seems, to me, to be inevitable. The world of late capitalism is dissolving into neo-feudalism and ecological carnage, with vast tracts of land becoming 'free-fire zones' and tens of millions driven to despair and rage against the global overlords. In an atmosphere like this, of worsening rich world barbarism, and rapidly spreading misery and want, what chance for global co-operation in facing the ecological crises?

Climate Change Strains Nation's Transportation Lifelines
WASHINGTON (AP) — Wild weather is taking a toll on roads, airports, railways and transit systems across the country. That's leaving states and cities searching for ways to brace for more catastrophes like Superstorm Sandy that are straining the nation's transportation lifelines beyond w…
Paul Magnus,
The "Hell n High Water … Chaos" is a series of worldwide AGW events starting about 2-weeks ago due to no cost dumping of predicted CO2 and other waste products under the guise of EssoKochs' free speech for a corporate citizen.
In the US northwest, "Record rainfall in season's first big storm" (By Lynn Thompson, Seattle Times staff reporter; seattletimes.com, 11/19/12). "Sudden Snow Aims for Great Lakes, Northeast Highways" (By Alex Sosnowski, Expert Senior Meteorologist; accuweather.com, 11/21/12). Outside of Beaumont, "150-vehicle pileup on foggy Texas highway leaves 2 dead, 100 hurt" (By Matt Pearce; latimes.com, 11/22/12). "Over 31,000 lightning strikes light up South Australia overnight" (By Brett Williamson; abc.net.au, 11/21/12). "Heavy Rains Flood 3 Jakarta Municipalities" (Jakarta Globe; thejakartaglobe.com, 11/23/12). "A). … 5). In the 1st week of the 2-weeks model, the 100th JCS-MADDD Model (11/11 – 17/12) produced AGW disasters from watery misery to the destruction of an F-22 Raptor. "Nearly three quarters of Venice was flooded on Monday and tourists swam in St Mark's Square as a wave of bad weather swept through northern and central Italy, forcing the evacuation of 200 people from their homes in Tuscany. … High water in Venice reached 149 cm (5ft), the sixth highest level since records began in 1872 …" ("Venice Flooded: Tourists, Locals Make Way Through Venice As Heavy Rain Pounds Italy (PHOTOS)"; Reporting by Steve Scherer and Naomi O'Leary; editing by Barry Moody; Reuters; huffingtonpost.com, 11/12/12). "Tornado-like winds hit Portugal's Algarve, 8 injured" (Reporting By Andrei Khalip; Editing by Pravin Char; reuters.com, 11/16/12). … In Minnesota, "First snow causes 50 crashes, spinouts in Twin Cities" (KMSP; myfoxtwincities.com, 11/12/12). "Valero Port Arthur, TX, refinery reports emissions from FCCU" (reuters.com, 11/13/12). … About 120 miles from Pensacola, "Jet crashes near Panhandle Air Force base" (AP; cbs12.com, 11/15/12) and "Another Day, Another $678 Million Stealth Jet Wrecked" (BY DAVID AXE; wired.com, 11/16/12). … "GBRWE 11/11 – 17/12 'regular' for global warming predictions: sports, rainfall, tornadic, hurricane, and stellar ecosystems with tectonic quantities … by Robert Rhodes, The "Ozonator" … B1).

Mond and Mulga, ordinary people simply have no idea of the scale of the problem. They are aware that the rate of disasters is going up but don't know that the current rate results from emissions from the 70s and 80s. They quote the carbon legislation as our answer and believe it will do the job as they have been led to believe. Until the real scale of the emergency is made public, we have a major catastophe and Martin Ferguson gets rolled, don't expect any demos, ME
It looks staged on numerous counts. The video producers get an F for burning plastic, and indoors to boot.
Anyone know where that animated distribution of cold and hot temperatures from NASA at 1:02 can be found?
Second of two visuals here:
Beautifully done, though I too cringed at the burning plastic (PCBs and/or other carcinogens).
Poetic license issued, though I presume, because of the direct and well thought out clarity of the message.
They'll come ME, but they will be too late. The great Australian mediocrity were tutored well under Howard in the habits of mindless greed and downward social envy, worship of the rich and global xenophobia. The false and wicked consciousness inculcated in so many people is the greatest hindrance to our salvation. I meet people every day who react to talk of the environment in the same manner as one of Dr Pavlov's dogs. The mere mention of the evil 'greenies', that the MSM has vilified for decades, gets them growling and barking, and looking for someone to bite.
Mulga and ME
Ok, so this is a problem in communication to a mass audience. Lets call them the 'Telly and Alan Jones Brigade' And that's not to put them down from some lofty SMH/NYRB podium. There's been enough of that, and it's part of the problem. Read Joe Bageant, 'Waltzing at the Doomsday Ball'
There are specialists who know how to sell to these guys.. sell them stuff they don't need and can't afford, and that begins with selling an idea. So why don't we ask them, for example the guys on that Gruen Transfer program? Hear this: If you want to create change, first create necessity.
So you two, instead of sobbing into our Chardonnay, why don't we think along these lines. Specifically, for the poor sod dozing over the sports page, or the poor soddette fixated on Brad Pitt and Angelina, for them.
Perhaps its a question of joining the dots? o
Mulga, there are a few rabid anti-greens in the general population but in my Latin Square Design survey they appeared as a small, almost cult group.
Mond, I wouldn't dream of crying into my very nice Cab Sav Merlot and there are a few obstacles to your proposal which are interrelated: e.g. it is much easier to flog useless products than good ideas and all agencies cheat in how they measure the success of their 'prosocial' campaigns (by measuring ad recognition rather than behavioural change); the most influential ads contain no information (Coke is Life) and work purely on generating positive emotion; the cost of getting an ad to screen is astronomical. Our best bet now is some straight talking when the next disaster strikes – the people appear aware and concerned, just need the spark, ME
Where can I get the NASA hot days versus cold days graph referred to in the video? Anybody have a link to that?
Never mind, I found it – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04_-LG1DirQ
Great presentation by the young girl. Very thoughtful. Hearty congratulations.

The primary tension in Giselle is the question of acceptance: will Albrecht accept Giselle? will she accept him?
Human Landscape Dance presents "Shades" and "Rumplestiltskin" (work in progress) on Sunday June 5, 2016, from 3-4pm in the rear studio of Headlong Studios, 1170 S. Broad St in Philadelphia PA. This contemporary dance performance is free and appropriate for all ages. Artistic Director Malcolm Shute will lead the Contact Improvisation Class that afternoon from 1-3pm. We invite all to come dance with us, then stay to watch our new work. for more information: inquiries at hldance.org, 202-577-9997.
"Shades" is a revision of the "Kingdom of the Shades" section of the classical ballet La Bayadere. It is a meditation on grief, and questions our culture's tendency to view heaven as a land of endless repetition. The original "Kingdom of the Shades" is more a wish for contentment with the status quo, than an embracing of inevitable change.
Our version of Rumplestiltskin emphasizes the shifting gender norms from older versions of the tale, to that of the brothers Grimm in the 1850s. This myth is a battle between the sexes, at which women's agency is at stake. We reveal this tension in the body of the Miller's Daughter, who is stuck behind that of Rumplestiltskin, arms alone able to emerge.

New Modern Logo Honors Past and Represents the Future of Dragon Con
Dragon Con, Atlanta's internationally known pop culture, fantasy and sci-fi convention, has a new logo, the first update in almost 20 years.
The new Dragon Con logo features a dragon in profile contained within a circle, with the Dragon Con name arching across the middle. The new colors are blue and gold with a touch of red, giving the design a bold and contemporary look.
"It was time to freshen up our logo, but it was important to maintain some continuity with the past," said President Pat Henry. "The new logo honors our past, but also gives us something that represents Dragon Con's present and future."
The new logo design translates the former logo into a flatter graphic image which should become iconic and stand the test of time. The design is also easily translated into black and white from its rich color palette. The sleek new logo has modern appeal, but still reflects the convention's humble beginnings.
"We are not the same show that we were back in 1995. We have experienced tremendous growth, morphing from a small convention that catered to a few specific interests into one embraced by the mainstream culture that encompasses so many aspects of fandom," Henry said. "As we continue to grow and evolve, we believe our logo should reflect that."
The modernized logo comes on the heels of the decision to update the convention name from Dragon*Con to Dragon Con, as the convention renews its style to reflect that of its membership and offering the best of pop culture, fantasy and sci-fi to its members in the 21st century.
Dragon Con is the internationally known pop culture convention held each Labor Day in Atlanta. Organized for fans, Dragon Con features more than about 3,000 hours of comics, film, television, costuming, art, music and gaming over four days. For more information, please visit www.dragoncon.org and follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

E-mail Everywhere from Anywhere
I am writing this article on my last day of work before I leave; later tonight, I'll be on a red-eye flight to Pennsylvania to spend Christmas and New Year's with my family. Besides the chance to wake up to a snow-covered lawn, one of the things I am most looking forward to is not having e-mail access for two whole weeks. Oddly enough, my friends find this weird—both my lack of access and my excitement over it. Even my friend who barely knew what e-mail was a mere six months ago expressed shock about my willingly going without it.
For those of you who can sooner imagine parting with a limb than parting with e-mail, the Linux Journal web site has some articles that should prove both interesting and useful. First off is Nick Moffitt's advice for "Busting Spam with Bogofilter, Procmail and Mutt" (www.linuxjournal.com/article/6439). Nick presents the macros he added to his system-wide configuration file to make training a Bayesian spam-filtering system as easy as deleting spam and saving or replying to interesting mail—things you do anyway. His macros are also good for personal Mutt configurations, so you don't need root access to start catching spam now.
If you've ever had a need or desire to access your home system remotely but can't SSH in because of a firewall, "Using E-mail as a System Console" can help solve your dilemma. This three-part series (www.linuxjournal.com/article/6453, with links to Parts II and III) is the work of Michael Schwarz, Jeremy Anderson, Peter Curtis and Steven Murphy from their book Multitool Linux. They explain how you can use Fetchmail, Procmail and a few scripts to access information, execute commands and even connect to the Internet strictly from e-mail.
Writing an article rejection letter led to "Mutt Over SSH, but What about Attachments?" (www.linuxjournal.com/article/6511) by Linux Journal Editor in Chief Don Marti. Usually our rejection letters are not this extensive, but in explaining why the article did not go far enough, Don ended up offering some methods for viewing e-mail attachments remotely. Reader-posted comments have continued the conversation, debating the merits of IMAP vs. its slow speed. If you've got a better way of dealing with viewing e-mail attachments remotely, please write about it in the article comments section. Don really wants to know a better way.
If you want to share the details of a unique e-mail configuration you've designed that can, say, command your house to clean itself or enable you to launch bottlerockets from work, drop us a line at email@example.com. Remember to check the Linux Journal web site often; new articles are posted daily.
Epilogue: So the holidays are over, and it's my first day back at work. Over dinner last night, I told a friend that I'd be happy if less than 500 e-mails were waiting for me. The final count? 846.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
On Demand
One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

This is the answer to having mainstream social sharing on your site. The problem with the 'mega' sharing plugins is that they are heavy, and slow your site. Floating Social Bar is very light-weight and loads very fast. It makes sense, since one of the developers is Thomas Griffin :)
Great job and I will be using it often.

The left sidebar has
- its main div (parentBlock)
- a div for the show/hide, (toggleBlock)
- a div for the logo, (div1)
- a div for the navbar, and (div2)
- a div for social icons (div2)
When the user clicks on "Show / Hide" I want to:
- Hide (display:none) the logo, navbar, and social div's, and
- Set the height of the main div to something smaller (say 30px).
Is there any way to do this in CSS?

Show / Hide

div1

div2

div3

Then if the user clicks "Show / Hide" again, it will unhide the div's and set the height back to filling the screen.
Is this possible?
I found some code that would work if the "Show / Hide" button was in "parentBlock" but it didn't work if it was within "toggleBlock" (and I have to have the Show/Hide button in toggleBlock) (http://tympanus.net/codrops/2012/12/17/css-click-events/)
Unfortunately I cannot alter the ultimate structure of "toggleBlock", div1, div2, and div3 ... only what's in them and their CSS. Also making it even more difficult is that the website randomly generates ID="" each time the page loads so the TARGET method isn't possible. Also, the 3 div's (div1 thru div3) have the same class name. I'm beginning to think it's impossible :(
(For reference, I'm trying to use the tools on the New SmugMug and they're rather restrictive)

Re: Need help with my loan ASAP
Are these federal student loans mozilla?
If so, I reccomend you visit this website: http://www.consumerfinance.gov/students/
It'll give you a lot of detail about your options, and you'll noticed that the lender needs to offer you affordable payments for the rehabilitation. Keep pressing them to do so, and to take into account your expenses and other debt. If they won't budge, you can file a complaint on that site. Be sure to document everything and keep good notes. Also, be willing to work the CA and accept a reasonable payment as long as you can afford it.
In the future, your payments will depend on the repayment plan you select, and you will be able to choose an income-based repayment plan that will reduce your payments if you don't make enough money to cover the full payment.

The U.S. values states' right to sovereignty, with individual laws and regulations governing all aspects of daily living. When moving from one place to another, it is important to become educated on the individual state's laws, including those pertaining to vehicle registration.
State Requirements
Each state has different laws determining how long new residents have before they must update their driver's license and register their vehicle. Texas allows 30 days, New Jersey allows 60 and Michigan demands that the information be updated immediately after relocation. See Resources for a chart with links to each state's Department of Licensing website for state-specific information.
Registration Requirements
Just as the deadline varies, so do the requirements to obtain a license and to register a vehicle. Some states require new residents to provide proof of insurance and show an in-state license before registering a new vehicle. Others, such as Arizona, require a trip to an emissions testing location.
Canceling Prior Registration
Residents leaving a state should also refer to that state's registration laws. You may need to send a letter canceling registration and return your license plates. More than half of the states, including Washington, Nevada, and Florida, require plates to be returned, though fewer require the written cancellation notice.

Guns are guns and should be handled accordingly.
Kids should be educated about them and it's never too early to start. Just last night my fiancée and I were discussing gun safety and her kids. They are 2, 10, and 14. We had previously gone over safety with the two older kids but last night we decided it was time to begin the process with the two year old. I took one of my pistols out of the safe and asked her if she knew what it was. She replied that it was a "shoot gun". I asked her if she was allowed to touch a gun and she didn't know. I told her she was not to touch a gun and to come and get her mother or me if she saw one. The lesson seemed to take and I put the pistol back in the safe.
Further lessons to follow as time goes on.
It would seem the proper rules of safety had not been ingrained before unsupervised use.
IMHO pumped it several times and pointed it at his brother isn't "Accidental" 13 years old puts him in the 7th grade range,old enough to realize the consequences of his actions.
"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country,"
--Mayor Marion Barry, Washington , DC .
How sad. For years the BB gun has been the starter gun and in most cases, good gun safety was not taught before letting junior go out to shoot. My first BB gun was a daisy pump and I could shoot through a tin can if I oiled the BBs and pumped the gun about ten times. My dad never taught me gun safety till I was ready for the .410/.22 over and under for squirrel and rabbit hunting. It wasn't thought to be necessary. BBs couldn't kill you.
"Do not go to stupid places with stupid people to do stupid things at stupid times. - Gabe Suarez
My old Red Ryder style could barely kill a Robin at 350 fps. Anything bigger was just wounded. As Common said, it was not considered an unsafe gun at the time, 55 years ago. We were told not to point it at anyone. Never took it seriously. We would even have bb gun wars with the stip of no head shots. We learned the hard way.
Now, with 500 fps and even 1000 fps +, it is beyond the kid stuff and needs real training and supervision. These bb and pellet guns are every bit as deadly at close range as a rimfire.
I owned that particular gun when I was younger. It is an air rifle that also accepts pellets and shoots BB's at 750 fps. At close range, that is more lethal than a single 1550 fps 12 gauge BB pellet at a normal distance. Because a 1550 fps BB from a shotgun will be roughly 600fps on impact.
That's more than twice the velocity of a spring based carbine lever action BB gun. I can't imagine doing that when I was 13. I knew what kind of damage that gun would do just from shooting targets. Not to mention what it would do to squirrels.
This is a local story for me and I've been following it since it happened. It's terribly sad and my heart broke when he passed, he'd been in critical condition for days.
Apparently both boys were shooting puffs of air at each other in between shooting bb's at targets. Mom was cooking dinner inside. Charges are being considered for the boy, mom and mom's boyfriend.
I think there's a large mindset that bb's are overall harmless. Obviously that's not the case. My thoughts and prayers are with those that knew the boy. Personally I hope charges aren't brought against the 13 yr old. My understanding is there was no malicious intent - young and stupid prevailed.
Our BB guns carry the same rules in my house as the "real" ones. The kids have no access and they are only allowed to use them under direct supervision of an adult.

We needed two bedroom accommodation (2 couples holidaying together) , which was a little difficult to find in Paihia. We found and booked this place online as all the photos looked fine, but we were a little worried as the price seemed too good and we've been caught before with websites not showing the true picture.
However, I was tempted not to write this review as we would love to keep this little gem to ourselves. It really is as good as it looks on its website.
On check-in Jill was very friendly with plenty of advice on what to do in the area. The cottages are wonderful little homes and we really appreciated touches like the gas bbq on the veranda. The only improvement that could be made is air-conditioning. Thoughtfully two fans are provided but they only circulate the very warm air. Please Jill, aircon would make these cottages perfect.
We will certainly stay here again and will tell all of our freinds of this great find.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- 4 separate private self-contained cottages. Ideal for a longer stays. Two bedroom, queen in one bedroom, and two singles in smaller second bedroom. Sleeps 2 - 4 and 1 child on couch. Additional d=fee for extra persons over 2. Full kitchens, incl Fridge/Freezer, and full oven. 32" LCD TV, CD, DVD (no Sky) Large private outdoor deck with rural veiws. Outdoor table and chairs and BBQ. Great for families. Children's playground. No daily maid service. Private and set well back from road. ... more less

Definition of Medication, antiviral
Medication, antiviral: An drug that kills viruses or suppresses their replication and, hence, inhibits their capability to multiply and reproduce.
For example, amantadine (Symmetrel) is a synthetic (man-made) drug that inhibits the multiplication of the influenza A virus and was once used to prevent the flu. Safer medicines such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza) can be used to prevent the flu shortly after exposure or to reduce the severity. Flu antiviral drugs work best for treatment when they are started within 2 days of getting sick. However, starting them later can still be helpful, especially if the sick person has a high risk health condition or is very sick from the flu. (Neither drug is a substitute for flu shots).Source: MedTerms™ Medical Dictionary
