Temples and Shrines in Osaka
By Viator, June 2015
Shitennoji Temple
The first Buddhist temple in Japan, Prince Shotoku - who is credited with bringing Buddhism to Japan - began construction on Shitennoji in the 6th century. Dubbed the "Buddhist altar of Osaka," the temple was strategically built near Osaka Bay to showcase the city's power and prosperity to the world. While the temple has undergone numerous reconstructions over the centuries, the design stays true to the original concept. An impressive pagoda stands tall behind the temple, and a Zen garden rests a short walk away. The temple is open year round, and admission costs 300 yen ($3USD).
Sumiyoshitaisha Shrine
Famous for its purely Japanese architecture and beautiful arched bridge entrance, Sumiyoshitaisha is one of Japan's oldest shrines, founded in the 3rd century. Japanese flock to the shrine for New Year's Day, a time to pay homage to ancestors and pray for good luck and fortune for the New Year. The stunning, red Sorihashi Bridge arches over a pond, making it one of Osaka's most photogenic spots.
Escape the neon lights and crowds of Osaka's entertainment districts and retreat to Hozenji, a small temple built in 1637. This peaceful refuge attracts few visitors. Dedicated to one of the five Wisdom Kings who guard Buddhism, the temple feels cozy, quaint, and well, protected. The temple rests on a narrow stone lane with small shops and cafes lining the entrance.
Osaka Tenmangu Shrine
Although Osaka Tenmangu Shrine is one of the most important Shinto shrines in Japan, its claim to fame resides in its Tenjin Matsuri festival. One of Japan's top three festivals, the festival worships the shrine's deity by parading a heavy structure of its likeness through the city. Tenjin Matsuri takes place on July 24 and 25 annually. The shrine attracts devout locals year-round, however, who come to the shrine to pray primarily for academic success.
Isshinji Temple
Unofficially known as the "Temple of Buddha Statues Made of Dead People's Bones," Isshinji Temple is famous and unique for its graves and impressive mausoleum that houses ashes of prominent Japanese Buddhists. As the moniker suggests, visitors will also see statues made from the bones of the dead. Isshiniji dates back to 1185. If the bones and graves didn't capture your attention enough, two other attractions are the temple gate and the Hiso-den building, designed by one of the temple's head priests.

Another pioneer, deCODE Genetics, continued making gains with a 92-percent increase in share price and an addition of $214 million to market capitalization since last quarter. DeCODE announced new obesity gene discoveries with Merck and milestones with Roche in the development of gene-expression assays that predict responsiveness to common treatments for asthma and hypertension. The aim of this project is to develop clinical diagnostic tools.
CuraGen published the first comprehensive protein interaction map for a multicellular organism, Drosophila melanogaster. Dubbed "the dawn of systems biology," the map boosted CuraGen's share price by 24 percent, adding $206 million to its market capitalization. Genome Therapeutics' market capitalization jumped $21 million, as the company prepared to merge with Genesoft Pharmaceuticals.
Vertex Pharmaceuticals was one of only four discovery companies that lost market value. Its market capitalization dropped by $135 million after the company voluntarily halted a Phase II trial of its experimental rheumatoid arthritis treatment Pralnacasan, based on animal toxicology studies. Vertex is continuing Phase I trials of the drug.
The end of the year also saw a burst of big deal activity. Lexicon and Sequenom each snagged their first drug discovery and development collaborations, with Bristol-Myers Squibb and Procter & Gamble, respectively. The Lexicon deal was worth about $66 million, while Sequenom stands to net $30 million.

Government locked into £342m rental costs for empty FireControl premises until 2033
The government is locked into spending £342m on rent for empty premises originally intended to house the £1.4bn FiReControl project, abolished last year.

The FiReControl project, started in March 2004, was conceived to reduce the number of control rooms handling emergency calls. But the FiReControl technology contract with EADS was terminated in December 2010, after £40m had been spent trying to replace England's 46 emergency call centres with nine regional sites.
The government is contractually tied into paying rent on sites until 2033, The Observer newspaper has learnt. Of the nine buildings, six are owned by offshore property companies based in Jersey, said the newspaper.
The £342m rental figure was revealed in a series of parliamentary questions in 2007 and 2008. The rent commitments mean the taxpayer is now paying £1.4m each month for the premises. Only the London site will be used for its original purpose.
Duncan Milligan, head of communications at the Fire Brigades Union, said the building contracts should not have been signed before the IT project was deemed operational.
"The leases were agreed in August 2005 but the government didn't sign the contract for the technology until nearly two years later. Then it ran into obvious problems as there were no proper specifications given to EADS as to what it wanted.
"It's ridiculous to sign leases without having any clear idea about the feasibility of the technology behind the project and then tie the taxpayer into leasing those buildings for 20-25 years.
A spokeswoman from Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) said the department was looking into ways of renting the buildings out to mitigate losses.
The DCLG spokeswoman said: "Our preferred option is for Fire and Rescue Services to use the buildings, as they are highly resilient and built for this purpose. We have been discussing options with Fire and Rescue Services and Authorities around the country since the FiReControl project closed in December."
Where there is no fire and rescue interest, the buildings will be offered to other suitable tenants: "Our aim is to be fair to Fire and Rescue Services and achieve the best possible value for money for the taxpayer," she said.
But many believe the DCLG is unlikely to recover the full rental costs. "They will represent on-going losses," said Duncan Milligan.
The spokeswoman said FiReControl was closed down because the main contractor could not deliver to an acceptable timescale and the project was not delivering for Fire and Rescue Services.
The National Audit Office is examining the project and is expected to produce a highly critical report next month.
The rental costs of each regional control centre are shown in the following table:
|Regional control centre
|Estimated cost (£ million)
|Lease term (years)

What is wrong with this picture?
"Lac du Flambeau signed the 1997 agreement to limit its take of walleye during the tribal spearing season in exchange for the ability to sell fishing, ATV and snowmobile licenses. The revenue from license sales never met expectations and the state has made supplemental annual payments to the tribe of between $50,000 and $100,000."
I laughed when I initially heard of this agreement because I thought anyone that knew of it would never buy a license in Menomonie County. I was right on that account.
The one thing I did not know is that the state would PAY THEM ANYWAY! How in the world did we let such morons in charge of making such agreements.
Again. What is wrong with this picture?

Simple Definition of conclave
: a private or secret meeting or group
Did You Know?
Ever wonder what happens behind locked doors? The etymology of conclave begs this question as the word comes from a Latin term meaning "room that can be locked up." The English word formerly had the same meaning, but that use is now obsolete. Today, "conclave" refers not to the locked rooms but to the private meetings and secret assemblies that occur within them. "Conclave" is especially likely to refer to a meeting of Roman Catholic cardinals who have secluded themselves to choose a pope, but it can refer to other types of private or secret meetings as well. The meaning of "conclave" has also expanded to include gatherings that are not necessarily secret or private but simply involve people with shared interests.
Origin and Etymology of conclave
Middle English, from Middle French or Medieval Latin; Middle French, from Medieval Latin, from Latin, room that can be locked up, from com- + clavis key — more at clavicle
First Known Use: 1524

Listen: Drake's new tune 'Trust Issues'
Drake has trust issues. See, he's looking for love, but but he's been burned by so many "bitches," that he's feeling a little wary on his new track, "Trust Issues." You know what's a bitch? Fame.
The slow groove opens with a Drake singing his lines from DJ Khaled's "I'm On One" in a langerous, quite lovely, fashion, despite some of the harsh words.
It's the third new tune the Canadian songwriter has posted recently on his website, October's Very Own, following May's "Dreams Money Can Buy" and "Marvin's Room" earlier this month.
Drake's got a sleepy voice that serves the track well, and he is equally adept at singing as rapping, but he just seems downright grumpy. Between this track and "Over," it all just seems a bit overwhelming for him. As he raps here, "You can look me in my eyes and see I ain't myself" and then confesses "I hate myself." That's after he's blasted other folks for not appearing as they seem anymore.
Drake, who received the Hal David Starlight award at the Songwriter's Hall of Fame last week in recognition of his burgeoning talent, is supposed to drop his new album, "Take Care," in October. An official single is reportedly coming in July.

Caprock and River Road needed two overtimes to come to a decision Friday as the Longhorns struck for their first victory of the season.
A 1-yard plunge by Steven Contreras on the first possession of overtime gave the Longhorns a 32-26 win against the Wildcats late Friday.
The Wildcats had a advanced toward the Caprock goal line on its second overtime possession, but a fourth-down pass under extreme pressure sailed wide.
River Road led 20-14 in the fourth period, but Caprock's John White scored on a 9-yard run with about four minutes remaining and Daniel Velasco's kick tied the game 20-20.
In the first OT, Caprock struck first on an 11-yard run by White. River Road responded with a 1-yard run by Kevin Grider to tie the game 26-26 at the end of the first overtime.
White finished the game with 151 yards and two touchdowns for the Longhorns. River Road quarterback Micah Mullin completed 8 of 19 passes for 181 yards and two touchdowns. Shane Rankin caught two passes for 122 yards and two touchdowns for the Wildcats while teammate Jason Barclay ran for 111 yards.

Perhaps you heard the astonishing good news that obesity among toddlers has dropped 43 percent in eight years. It made headlines, and was based on findings in a prestigious medical journal by respected researchers using gold-standard data.
Is it true?
Technically, yes. But here are some other statistics derived from the same paper:
- Toddler obesity dropped 39.6 percent (before rounding off the raw numbers) in eight years.
- Or 21 percent in six years - or 31 percent in just two years.
- Or, using confidence intervals at each end - the range of statistical possibilities rather than the most likely point near the middle - the eight-year change comes out somewhere between a 7 percent increase and a 66 percent decrease.
"I'm not so convinced by these figures," said Temple University math professor John Allen Paulos.

hey guys Im new client in maple and today I was about check out the resualt of my mathematic quastion with maple.
I need a step by step solution and exact command to give me true resualts
for example
how can I expand a factorization like (x^2-y^2) to (x-y)(x+y)
in a little more complicated form (cd-1)^2-(c-d)^2/(d^2)(c-1)=5 the value of c=?
for solve this problem I need to expand (cd-1)^2-(c-d)^2 than other expands & in the end value of c
I dont have anymore time for my mathemathic exam so know that how maple works in basic and intermadiate mathematic level is important to me
thank you guys
Would anyone know how to customize the CompleteSquare function. Reason is I am trying to extend it to complex numbers. Examples below. (Unfortunately the text editor is playing up but if you could copy and paste the text below in your Maple you should be able to see it more clearly).
eqn1 := x__1^2+4*x__1*x__2+2*x__2^2;
CompleteSquare(eqn1, [x__1, x__2]);
This gives the answer below which is correct.
However consider the complex function below:
I am trying to factorize this into the following:
The technique I am trying is to first try to come up with a generalized form of the CompleteSquare function and then try to extend it to complex factorization but so far haven't been successful.
Any useful comments appreciated.
Let's say I've got somehow a result of the product:
as series expression and I want to factor out the series of
in order to get
How can I do that with Maple?
Dear hope you will fine. I am try to make a program of square free factorization over a finite field whose alogrithm is below:
Algorithm: SFF (Square-Free Factorization)
Input: A monic polynomial f in Fq[x]
Output: Square-free factorization of f
i←1; R ← 1; g ← f′;
if g ≠ 0 then {
c ← gcd(f, g);
w ← f/c;
while w ≠ 1 do {
y ← gcd(w, c); z ← w/y;
R ← R·zi; i ← i+1;
w ← y; c ← c/y }
if c ≠ 1 then {
c ← c1/p;
Output(R·SFF(c)p) }
else Output(R)
else {

This may be a trivial question, but does this factor fully with the newer versions of Maple, say at 900 digits?

com.maplesoft.externalcall.MapleException: Error, (in evala/Factors) input must be polynomials over the integers
The input polynoial is valid (when coping and pasting `factor(...)` directly into Maple interface, all works). When trying to factor simple polynomials like "x**2 - I*x" all goes fine too. Tried both Maple 17 and 18 (Linux).
PS. There is no problem when running this code on OS X (I tried Maple 16, 17, 18), but I need to be able to run Maple with Java on my Linux cluster.
I would like to ask for help with factorization, collection or decomposition of matricies. If I have the symbolic product of matrices:
then C:= A*B :
and my question follows:
Can I factor this result C and get the imput matrices A and B ? Is any function for this operation ? I would like to use it for matrices 3 time 3 not only for 2 times 2.
Thank you for your help,
I have trouble in using the function factors. For example, I expect
factor(Pi*(t^2+1), {I});
to output
but instead the result is
This problem does not appear if Pi gets replaced by a general symbol:
factor(pi*(t^2+1), {I});
produces (as I expect it should)
The problem seems to be tied to symbols representing constants, as for example replacing Pi by Catalan also results in no factorization being performed. It further seems to be tied to specifying a splitting field, because
results in
Is this behaviour intended? Probably the reason is that the polynomial does not have algebraic coefficients (as it includes Pi). Indeed,
produces the error message
Error, (in factor) expecting a polynomial over an algebraic number field
But why does this error then not appear for the call factor(Pi*(t^2-1))? If this would assume complex coefficients, it should factor using I. Considering coefficients in an algebraic number field, also the original call factor(Pi*(t^2+1), {I}); should raise an error!?
we use Modern Computer Algebra
let f=x^15-1 belong to Z[x]. take a nontrivial factorization f≡gh mod 2 with g,h belong to Z[x] monic and of degree at least 2. computer g*,h* belong to Z[x] such that f≡g*h* mod 16 ,deg g*=deg g, g*≡g mod 2.
show your intermediate. can you guess some factors of f in Z[x]?
Hello all,
I would like to use Maple to simplify an expresion of this form:
How can I use factor in equations?
For example:
These examples are very simple.
Thank you
I made a prodecure:
with(numtheory);divs:=proc(k)local n,q:for n from 1 to infinity doq:=tau(n);if k=q then break;end if;end do;return [q,n];end proc;[seq(divs(i),i=1..20)];
I have make it for i from 1 to 100 too, but it should work in five minutes. I think it should be made somehow with the integer factorization, but i can't realize it. Can someone help me?
I'd like to take the output of ifactor(n::posint), the prime factorization of n, and index the terms of the product to a list. ie: ifactor(256)=2^8 so [2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2]. or 135 -> (3^3)(5)->[3,3,3,5].Any suggestions?
if my eqsn is x^4+x^3+x^2 . i can take a common factor x^2 ,then the eqsn will be x^2(x^2+x+1) ...also i can take a common factor of x ...then the eqsn will be x(x^3+x^2+x) ...how can i direct maple about my common factor ...u think this is useless but i have just made my problem simple to ask a qsn so that everyone can understand what i really want to tell
I have a long expression which I want to factor optimally. If I can cancel terms in the numerator and denominator, great, and if not, I just want to reduce the size as best possible. Maybe there will be terms such as
(x12 + x32 + y12 +y32)*(x22 + x42 + y22 + y42)
which I see when factoring the denominator by hand. Here's the worksheet, the final...

Heroic effort to save dogAugust 30,2014On Friday, Aug. 22, my younger brother took my dog, Sam, out hiking at White Rocks in Clarendon. At 500 feet up, Sam got startled by a noise and fell over a cliff. My brother called 911, and search and rescue showed up. After five hours of looking, they called off the search. Early Saturday morning, two of my brothers went up to the mountain determined to find my dog dead or alive. My older brother finally spotted Sam in a tree about 250 feet from the top of the cliff and risked his life by getting over to that tree and staying with Sam while my other brother called 911 again. Five hours later, the wonderful rescue team made it to the top, carrying 400 pounds of equipment and rapelled down to rescue my brother and my dog. I would like to extend my thanks, gratefulness, and my heart to those involved: Chief Stephane Goulet, Capt. Mark Barone, Lt. Joe Maniery, firefighters Ryan Brown, Chris Ghio, Josh Maniery, Gary Wells, Terry Whiteman, Matt Walker, Jeremy Duchesne, junior firefighter Anthony Petrossi, firefighters Corbin Shattuck and Tim Mumford, the Clarendon Fire Department, the Wallingford Rescue EMS, the Danby Fire Department, the East Dorset Fire Department, Vermont state troopers, and, of course, my brothers, Owen and Kevin. Some people may say, Its just a dog, but to me, my dog is my life, and these heroes saved more than just a dog that day.

Club opening times
1st and 3rd Saturdays of the month 10am till 2pm.
Club 2m net is on 147.650 MHz in, 147.050 MHz out
using the club's repeater.
Also accessible via IRLP reflector 9555
or Echolink conference VK3IRL-R
This page is for larger versions of the same photo that we have had as past home page photos.
At the last meeting we enjoyed a Christmas BBQ where the Rex Black Memorial award was presented to Alan Beard VK2ZIW.
Jan Van Ekris was presented with the encouragement award for 2013.
There is a link to the Rex Black Memorial Trophy in honor of Rex, who was a life member of BMARC. Just look up and across to your left.
Now on a more personal note, I would like to thank all of the members and the committee for all the great work and achievements made throughout this year.
I would also like to particularly thank the President, Richard VK2BO, and wish him all the best on his very long trip, and I look forward to acting as President in his absence.
This is Erik Houseman VK2EJH wishing everybody a Merry Christmas and a Happy & Safe New Year.
There have been a many great tributes to Terry, and I have just chosen this one with a picture of Terry VK2UX, on the left, being presented an award by past President Tim VK2XTT in 2009.
"A great man of radio has now passed.
Terry was responsible for myself and many others, gaining their AR license.
He will be missed by more than than those of our club, his reach, in the AR community was vast.
Vale Terry
Our condolences to all his family and friends.
Tim & Jan Tuck."
I was also one of Terry's recent students at Dural, VK2MAN.
(now VK2EJH.) I think this photo shows how friendly and helpful he was.
73 Old Man.
And From Daniel also in this photo...
"Dear all,
Like you all, I was saddened by the news of Terry's passing.
He had been ill for some time with what was Cancer, and then to have a fall and break a hip while in Hospital, was so unfortunate.
It is something we were expecting, but it always comes as a shock when it happens.
Our thoughts are with Janice, Bronwyn and Mathew.
73 Daniel VK2DC."
We had a great presentation from Karl Humphreys on just how big and heavy military radios are.
Last October we learnt about "Total Internal Reflection".
shown here in this photograph. The LASER beam does not hit Tony's palm becase it is reflected inside the stream of water and bent downwards.
A while ago Alan presented an interesting demonstration on filters.
For example, how to stop your repeater input from overloading due to your repeater output being so close to the receive frequency, and so very strong compared to the signals that you are trying to receive.
Toby gave us a great demonstration on all sorts of Arduino kits and inspired us to go out and make something interesting.
Here is just a small sample of some of the boards that he has either bought, or made from kits, or designed and made himself.
Toby said for more information, have a look at the blog on his website at www.vk2tob.com.
This is followed by the Trans Tasman 160 Metres Contest held on the 20th of July 2013, showing the sparks coming from the chimney and part of the Double Bazooka Antenna.
This proves that you don't have to freeze to have a great signal.
Also a view from inside just getting ready before the contest began.

Landslide Safety
Need Help Now?
If you are in immediate need of help, please contact your local Red Cross or find a shelter.
Landslides have occurred in almost every state and can cause significant damage. The term landslide describes downhill earth movements that can move slowly and cause damage gradually, or move rapidly, destroying property and taking lives suddenly and unexpectedly. Most landslides are caused by natural forces or events, such as heavy rain and snowmelt, shaking due to earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and gravity. Landslides are typically associated with periods of heavy rainfall or rapid snowmelt and tend to worsen the effects of flooding. Areas burned by forest and brush fires are also particularly susceptible to landslides.
- Landslides generally happen in areas where they have occurred in the past. Learn about your area's landslide risk. Landslides can also be referred to as mudslides, debris flows, mudflows or debris avalanches.
- Debris flows and other landslides onto roadways are common during rainstorms.
- Heavily saturated ground is very susceptible to mudflows and debris flows.
- Be aware that, generally, landslide insurance is not available, but that debris flow damage may be covered by flood insurance policies from the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) at www.FloodSmart.gov
What should I do if I live in an area at risk from landslides?
- Learn about local emergency response and evacuation plans.
- Talk to everyone in your household about what to do if a landslide occurs.
- Create and practice an evacuation plan for your family and your business.
- Assemble and maintain an emergency preparedness kit.
- Become familiar with the land around where you live and work so that you understand your risk in different situations.
- Watch the patterns of storm water drainage on slopes near your home, especially where runoff water converges.
- Create and practice an evacuation plan for your family and your business.
- Assemble and maintain an emergency preparedness kit.
Gather supplies in case you need to evacuate
- Water—a 3-day supply; one gallon per person per day
- Food—a 3-day supply of non-perishable, easy-to-prepare food
- Flashlight [Available on the Red Cross Store]
- Battery-powered or hand-crank radio (NOAA Weather Radio, if possible) [Available on the Red Cross Store]
- Extra batteries
- First Aid kit [Available on the Red Cross Store]
- Medications (7-day supply) and medical items
- Multi-purpose tool
- Sanitation and personal hygiene items
- Copies of personal documents (medication list and pertinent medical information, proof of address, deed/lease to home, passports, birth certificates, insurance policies)
- Cell phone with chargers
- Family and emergency contact information
- Extra cash
Respond During
What should I do if a landslide is occurring or likely to occur?
- If you suspect imminent danger, evacuate immediately. Inform affected neighbors if you can, and contact your public works, fire or police department.
- Listen for unusual sounds that might indicate moving debris, such as trees cracking or boulders knocking together.
- If you are near a stream or channel, be alert for any sudden increase or decrease in water flow and notice whether the water changes from clear to muddy. Such changes may mean there is debris flow activity upstream so be prepared to move quickly.
- Be especially alert when driving— watch for collapsed pavement, mud, fallen rocks and other indications of possible debris flow.
- If you are ordered or decide to evacuate, take your animals with you.
- Consider a precautionary evacuation of large or numerous animals as soon as you are aware of impending danger.
During Severe Storms
- Stay alert and awake. Many deaths from landslides occur while people are sleeping.
- Listen to local news stations on a battery-powered radio for warnings of heavy rainfall.
- Consider leaving if it is safe to do so.
Recover After
What should I do after a landslide?
- Stay away from the slide area. There may be danger of additional slides.
- Check for injured and trapped persons near the slide, without entering the direct slide area. Direct rescuers to their locations.
- Help a neighbor who may require special assistance--infants, elderly people, and people with disabilities. Elderly people and people with disabilities may require additional assistance. People who care for them or who have large families may need additional assistance in emergency situations.
- Listen to local radio or television stations for the latest emergency information.
- Watch for flooding, which may occur after a landslide or debris flow. Floods sometimes follow landslides and debris flows because they may both be started by the same event.
- Look for and report broken utility lines to appropriate authorities. Reporting potential hazards will get the utilities turned off as quickly as possible, preventing further hazard and injury.
- Check the building foundation, chimney, and surrounding land for damage. Damage to foundations, chimneys, or surrounding land may help you assess the safety of the area.
- Replant damaged ground as soon as possible since erosion caused by loss of ground cover can lead to flash flooding.
- Seek the advice of a geotechnical expert for evaluating landslide hazards or designing corrective techniques to reduce landslide risk. A professional will be able to advise you of the best ways to prevent or reduce landslide risk, without creating further hazard.
Let Your Family Know You're Safe
If your community has experienced a disaster, register on the American Red Cross Safe and Well website to let your family and friends know about your welfare. You may also call 1-866-GET-INFO to register yourself and your family.

Charges Reduced Against Reverend Billy and Choir Director For Toad Hat-Wearing Chase Bank Protest
Reverend Billy (white coat, Elvis hair) and Luckett (blue shirt) at a press conference with liberty-loving puppets after this morning's hearing.
Photo by Kim Fraczek; image via Facebook.
In September, longtime New York activist Reverend Billy and his Stop Shopping Gospel Choir, led by choir director Nehemiah Luckett, went into a Chase Bank in midtown and made a little music. The two led a choir of eight in a musical protest against mountaintop removal, a controversial form of coal-mining that Chase helps finance. The choir sang a song, then Reverend Billy preached a sermon on Chase's fondness for fossil fuel investments. The whole thing lasted about 15 minutes, according to the choir, who had donned fetching yellow toad hats during the performance.
For their trouble, as we told you at the time, Luckett and Reverend Billy (real name William Talen) were charged with rioting in the second degree, menacing in the third degree, unlawful assembly, and two counts of disorderly conduct. The rioting and the menacing both carried a possible punishment of one year in prison. But in a hearing in Manhattan Criminal Court Monday morning, those charges were greatly reduced. According to the Manhattan District Attorney's office, the prosecution reviewed the footage and decided that the whole thing looked more like a musical protest than a riot.
- See also: Street Preacher Reverend Billy and Choir Director Charged With Rioting After Toad-Hat-Wearing Protest in a Chase Bank
After we reported on the charges against Reverend Billy and Luckett, the story got picked up by a whole lot of other places, including WNYC, the Guardian, Vice, Democracy Now!, and Forbes (yes, that Forbes). The Worldwide Hippies were also very upset, declaring, "You fuck with Reverend Billy, you fuck with the Worldwide Hippies!" (Noted.) A Change.org petition calling for the charges to be dropped has garnered 13,900 signatures so far, and a legal defense fund for the two men has raised $15,720, or 105 percent of its goal.

That petition was handed to the judge at this morning's hearing. At the same time, the prosecution announced that after talking with eyewitnesses and reviewing security footage, they were amending their complaint against the two men. The new charges are criminal trespassing in the third degree, unlawful assembly, trespassing, and two counts of disorderly conduct.
In the previous complaint, the Chase branch manager, Robert Bongiorno, told David Bornstein, the Assistant District Attorney assigned to the case, that because of the people with frog hats jumping and singing and whatnot all over his bank, he "believed that the bank was being robbed, felt in fear for his physical safety, and observed at least one customer or employee inside of the bank break into tears."
In the new complaint, Bongiorno no longer reports that he feared he was being robbed by a gang of frog-headed menaces. Instead, the complaint says, Bongiorno reports that he "observed many of the above individuals handing out yellow pieces of paper to the customers and employees in the bank." (Those were leaflets on mountaintop removal.) At the time, he adds, "the bank was open for business and multiple customers were present inside of the bank in order to conduct business, but that Mr. Bongiorno observed that the defendants' actions disrupted the bank's ability to conduct business."
The prosecution, led by ADA Bornstein, also have a new sentencing recommendation: They'd like Reverend Billy to plead guilty to disorderly conduct and perform one day of community service. For Luckett, they've recommended an Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal (ACD). An ACD means that if Luckett stayed out of trouble for six months -- no menacing of fainthearted bank managers -- the case would be dismissed and sealed. The next court date for both men is February 27.
The choir began a run of shows at Joe's Pub earlier this month. Reverend Billy, who has a pretty robust sense of humor, told Democracy Now's Amy Goodman that the charges, upsetting though they were, hadn't been bad for attendance.
"Well, Jesus taught us -- I mean there are lots of things about Jesus that we can't listen to, right?" he told Goodman. "But, one thing he did teach us is, if you can't afford a press person, get arrested quickly."
Amen to that.
A portion of the new complaint against Talen and Luckett is on the following page.

Complaint Language
I am informed by Robert Bongiorno, who works as the branch manager at the Chase Bank at the above location, that he observed a group comprised of defendant William Talen, defendant Nehemiah Luckett, and approximately seven people who were wearing frog masks/hats inside of the bank at the above location. I am further informed by Mr. Bongiorno that he observed defendant Talen and the individuals in the frog masks/hats shouting and screaming loudly, in sum and substance, "WE ARE COMING FOR YOU!," among other phrases, while walking up to the bank's customers and employees. I am further informed by Mr. Bongiorno that he observed defendant Talen screaming a speech in a loud and commanding voice, while defendant Talen walked about the bank. I am further informed by Mr. Bongiorno that he observed many of the above individuals handing out yellow pieces of paper to the customers and employees in the bank. I am further informed by Mr. Bongiorno that, at the time, the bank was open for business and multiple customers were present inside of the bank in order to conduct business, but that Mr. Bongiorno observed that the defendants' actions disrupted the bank's ability to conduct business.
I am further informed by Mr. Bongiorno that, while wearing a name tag that identified him as the branch manager, he repeatedly ordered both defendant Talen and defendant Luckett to leave the bank immediately. I am further informed by Mr. Bongiorno that, despite his repeated orders to the defendants to leave the bank, they remained inside of the bank and continued to engage in the above-indicated conduct. I am further informed by Mr. Bongiorno that, as a manager of the above bank, the defendants did not have permission or authority to remain inside of the bank after he had ordered them to leave. Moreover, I am informed by Mr. Bongiorno that the bank location is enclosed by multiple walls, a roof, and doorway in a manner designed to exclude intruders.
I am further informed by Mr. Bongiorno that he has watched Chase Bank security footage of the above incident and that the footage shows defendant Luckett enter the bank with defendant Talen, remain in the bank with defendant Talen, and then leave the bank with defendant Talen. Moreover, I am further informed by Mr. Bongiorno that the above footage also shows defendant Luckett walking about the bank with yellow pieces of paper in his hands and then placing those pieces of paper on multiple flat surfaces in the bank.

In 2012, I published a law review article where I argued that when a defendant engages in the type of activity permitted by a specific exception under the Copyright Act, but does not qualify for a technical reason, the court should give weight to the defendant's substantial compliance with the exception when considering the first fair use factor (the purpose and character of the use).1 In adopting a specific exception, Congress recognized the strong public policy interest in permitting the use in cases meeting the exception's requirements. Significantly, the same public policy interest still exists in cases where many, but not all, of the exceptions' requirements are met. While the existence of a specific exception should not be dispositive of the fair use analysis, I argued that it should have a positive influence on the first fair use factor. Since then, both the Second Circuit and the Register of Copyrights have given substantial weight to specific exceptions in the context of consideration of the first fair use factor.
This article is part of an IP-Watch and Infojustice.org series analyzing the Trans Pacific Partnership intellectual property provisions by leading experts around the world. The series will publish weekly through the first quarter of 2016.
During the negotiation of the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement, many concerns were voiced about how TPP would mandate adoption of U.S. style statutory damages. Under the U.S. Copyright Act, a court can award damages of up to $30,000 per work infringed, which can be ratcheted up to $150,000 per work infringed in cases of willful infringement. Scholars have found that statutory damages in the U.S. have discouraged investment in innovative technologies while incentivizing the emergence of copyright trolls.
So how bad is the statutory damages provision in the final TPP agreement? Continue reading »
Evolution of the Copyright Exceptions and Limitations Provision in the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement
Note: The original version of this paper was posted on October 20, 2015. It was updated on November 10, 2015 taking into account the release of the official TPP text. (eds.)
The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Agreement contains an important provision concerning achieving balance in the copyright systems of the twelve countries party to that free trade agreement. This provision was not present in the early draft of the agreement. Then, in July 2012, the United States proposed language that formed the basis of the text of the provision. This language subsequently was strengthened over the next three years to its final form. This paper recounts the evolution of this provision. Because of the lack of transparency of the TPP negotiations, it is difficult to reconstruct a precise timeline of when specific language was proposed, who proposed it, and why. However, a combination of leaked drafts and public statements provides evidence of the provision's trajectory.
Updated March 10, 2015, to include UK Fair Dealing amendments.
Updated on April 3, 2013, to include Liberia.
More than 40 countries with over one-third of the world's population have fair use or fair dealing provisions in their copyright laws. These countries are in all regions of the world and at all levels of development. The broad diffusion of fair use and fair dealing indicates that there is no basis for preventing the more widespread adoption of these doctrines, with the benefits their flexibility brings to authors, publishers, consumers, technology companies, libraries, museums, educational institutions, and governments.

Both political parties have begun to focus greater attention on the growing income inequality in the United States. While there probably are many factors contributing to the inequality, one factor has received relatively little attention: the nature of the U.S. political system encourages increasingly complex regulatory frameworks, which benefit those with more resources to navigate those frameworks. As the frameworks get more complex, the advantage of those with resources increases. Continue reading »
The name the Motion Picture Association of America used for its anti-Google campaign—"Project Goliath"—may be more self-revelatory than the MPAA expected.
It has been widely reported that the hacked Sony Pictures emails reveal that in early 2014, MPAA launched Project Goliath, a policy initiative to develop legal tools to block access to websites that facilitate infringement. The effort to develop such legal tools at the federal level failed spectacularly with the SOPA/PIPA debacle, so Project Goliath attempted to enlist the support of state attorneys general. The news reports about Project Goliath speculate that "Goliath" is a code name for Google, one of the most vocal opponents of SOPA/PIPA and a frequent target of entertainment industry complaints that its search engine directs users to infringing sites such as cyberlockers. Google in a policy blog expressed "deep concerns" about the revelations, and asked why the MPAA, an organization that claims to be committed to the First Amendment and artists' freedom of expression, was "trying secretly to censor the Internet." The MPAA responded that "Google's effort to position itself as a defender of free speech is shameful." Continue reading »
[This post was updated on August 4, in response to the President's signature of the cell phone unlocking bill.]
On July 25, 2014, the House of Representatives passed the version of cell phone unlocking legislation adopted ten days earlier by the Senate. President Obama promptly announced that he would sign the legislation, bringing at least a short-term resolution to a controversy that had burst into the public eye early in 2013. The underlying issue, however, has much deeper roots, stretching back to the enactment of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act in 1998. Moreover, the legislation only temporarily permits consumers to unlock their cell phones to access other mobile networks. In 2015, the Librarian of Congress will determine whether to renew this permission for another three years. A permanent solution to this problem appears precluded by the free trade agreements to which the United States is a party. This paper examines the legal background of this matter. Continue reading »
[Library Copyright Alliance Press Release, Link] The Library Copyright Alliance is extremely pleased with today's decision by the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in Authors Guild v. HathiTrust, finding in favor of fair use. The Library Copyright Alliance filed an amicus brief (PDF) in the case, supporting HathiTrust's position and the lower court's finding of fair use. Jonathan Band, counsel for the Library Copyright Alliance, said, "The decision is a significant victory for the public." Continue reading »
Department of Homeland Security IP Seizure Statistics Reveal Misplaced Priorities or Misrepresentation
The Administration's 2013 Joint Strategic Plan on Intellectual Property Enforcement identifies "protection of public health and safety" as one of its "primary concerns." A press release issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on March 24, 2014, concerning its intellectual property seizures in fiscal year 2013 suggests that its IP enforcement efforts are largely targeted at preventing the importation of counterfeit products that threaten health and safety. The actual statistics, however, reveal a somewhat different story: that DHS is either exaggerating the danger posed by counterfeit goods to health and safety, or it is not taking that danger seriously enough. Continue reading »
Jonathan Band and Jonathan Gerafi
In March 2014, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) announced that global industry revenues declined 3.9 percent in 2013. IFPI claims that "digital piracy is the biggest single threat to the development of the licensed music sector and to investment in artists." Notwithstanding these dire pronouncements, the record labels remain profitable and the music industry as a whole is thriving.
On March 4, 2013, the White House announced that it disagreed with the decision of the Librarian of Congress not to allow consumers to unlock their cell phones to access other mobile networks. The White House took this position in response to a "We The People" petition that gained over 114,000 signatures. With legislation to address this issue pending in Congress, the five largest mobile carriers on December 12, 2013, adopted a voluntary commitment to allow cell phone unlocking after the expiration of a service contract. While this voluntary commitment provides some benefit to consumers, a comprehensive legislative solution may be precluded by the free trade agreements to which the United States is a party. This paper examines the legal background of this matter.
An earlier version was posted previously, but this version has been updated to reflect the debate over the new bulk unlocking language that was added as the bill went to the House floor.

WINNSBORO - A man has pleaded guilty in the 2009 shooting death of a woman at a bank ATM near Columbia in 2009.
The State newspaper reported (http://bit.ly/1jHrALS) that 42-year-old Kendrick Nesbitt was sentenced to life in prison without parole in court in Winnsboro on Monday.
Fifty-five-year-old Lynne Thompson of Elgin died after she was shot three times at an ATM at a bank in Forest Acres.
Nesbitt also was charged with the 2005 shooting death of Tracy Robert Lowe in his Greenville apartment. Nesbitt was charged with the Greenville killing after he was arrested in Thompson's death.
The guilty plea and life without parole sentence came in an agreement with prosecutors not to seek a death sentence in Thompson's death.
Nesbitt apologized to the victims' families before he was sentenced.
