Day 14 -- The RIAA stops suing people, continues tactics
35 Days Against DRM — Day 13: HDTV
Confessions of a HDTV Shop Employee
HDTV is a countdown to obsolete hardware, with the unintended (or maybe just unpublicized) side effect being that viewers have fewer options, since all-digital technology can be more easily restricted. Today, we present an anonymous tale from a shop employee of some of the problems around digital TV -- how consumers are being sold on the idea of HDTV, what that means for censorship and DRM.
Day 12: Grand Fail Auto
Thanks to everyone who's sent in details of PC games. We've already covered Spore and SecuROM -- today we're touching on GTA IV, and offering some free software alternatives.
Act 1 -- Grand Fail Auto
One of the most anticipated games of 2008 has finally been released -- defectively -- by Rockstar Games. Yes, GTA IV is laden with the same DRM that has plagued gamers so much this year -- SecuROM.
On the subject, Rockstar announced:
Day 11: iTunes
You may have heard this week, that iTunes was going DRM-free. Of course, it didn't happen. Apple's iTunes, under Steve Jobs, is still stubbornly the only major distributor of DRM-encumbered music at a time when Amazon, Rhapsody, Napster, eMusic, Magnatune, 7 Digital and more are all selling music without restriction.

35 Days Against DRM -- Day 8: Nintendo Wii
Jeremy Wahl writes to warn us of the dangers of the Wii console and Nintendo's attitudes towards DRM and its customers. For his efforts, Jeremy wins a DBD tshirt and free album courtesy of Magnatune.
Nintendo's Wii uses a system similar to iTunes cards. You buy cards in stores, or points via your console with a credit card. The points can be used to buy emulated versions of classic games or downloads of software and new, smaller games, called WiiWare.
35 Days Against DRM -- Day 7: Prince: Friends without benefits.
Mike McCarty sends in his horror story of being a Prince fan, as a reminder of some of the tricks being pulled on music fans in this DRM age. Mike wins one of our T-shirts and a DRM-free album from Magnatune.
We begin with the demise of Prince's DRM-music service, New Power Generation.
Act One. Prince's music service: Defective by Design
Luckily I only purchased one of MANY DRM-laden album from Prince's now defunct New Power Generation website, Xpectation. It came in the DRM-encumbered Windows Media format, but this was before I was ever aware of the horrors of DRM. Ironically, I EXPECTED the files to work pretty much forever, maybe not forever but at least a few good years. However, I guess the joke was on me as I misplaced the files on an external harddrive a year or so ago and recently located them only to find out there's absolutely nothing I can do with them.
This is pretty common with digital files, but many of the DRM-free providers such as Magnatune and eMusic allow you to redownload your purchases directly from them.
Act Two: Prince's war on the Internet
Prince's war with all things internet has left me with quite the sour taste in my mouth. Pointing my browser to the website I purchased the album from confirms that the address cannot be found. No surprise. I think it's been gone for at least a year or two now. A while back I had heard the site went under and that Prince had begun using his MySpace page. This has since been shut down as well.
As The Register noted last September:
Teaming up with Web Sheriff, the firm currently known as "Europe's leading internet policing specialist," the Minnesota-born pop star has already ordered YouTube and eBay to remove hundreds of supposedly Prince-infringing web items, and he's intent on filing suit against the two web behemoths - not to mention Swedish BitTorrent tracker The Pirate Bay.
Mike continues his story:
Searching Prince fan sites such as Housequake, prince.org and a few others have led me to the fact that there pretty much is no way to contact Prince OR his camp in ANY form whatsoever. Also, there was never any mention to his fanclub (which I DID pay $25 to join) that they would no longer be supporting the DRM-laden files when the NPG Music Club went under. No other fans, or what Prince likes to call "Friends", knew what to do about the files either. The only suggestion I was given, which isn't possible now that the files cannot be played, was to burn the files to a cd and rip them back to mp3 if I want to put them on the ol' mp3 player. Well... the files won't play, so how am I supposed to burn them? It's just not possible.
Ah yes, the burn-to-a-CD-defense. This is a pretty common reaction to the problem that DRM causes. Of course, buying DRMed media, burning to a CD, and ripping the CD, all takes time and effort and means losing quality. Often DRMed music makes it hard for you to burn it to a CD -- you have to use specific proprietary software to do a job that is much better done elsewhere.
Act Three: You wouldn't treat your friends like this...
I used to be a massive Prince fan -- I won't say friend since I certanly wouldn't treat a friend the way he's treating his fans, but his adamancy about people stealing or sharing his work has alienated me and I'm sure quite a few others. Sure he gave away Musicology when you saw him in concert a few years back, but I still PAID for the Xpectation album and feel that I should be able to listen to it as long as I keep the files handy. I WILL NOT purchase another DRM-laden file ever.
Thanks Prince, for absolutely nothing except a good old-fashioned lesson in what not to do in future.
35 Days Against DRM -- Day 6: Windows Media Center
If you put Microsoft at the center of your home entertainment system, be prepared to hand them the remote control, literally.
35 Days Against DRM -- Day 5: Yahoo and MSN Music
This year we've also seen some significant closures of various DRM services -- first MSN Music, then Yahoo Music. Yahoo offered refunds in the end, but it highlights the very real problem of DRM services closing down. Yahoo and Microsoft aren't even going out of business, yet they've closed DRM services. Google has done the same thing with its video store.
35 Days Against DRM -- Day 4: BBC iPlayer
It has been a while since we touched on the BBC iPlayer, that DRM-encumbered behemoth, coveted by so many at the BBC as its answer to the internet age.
A quick recap of the facts:
35 Days Against DRM -- Day 3: Overdrive
From the arrest of Dmitry Sklyarov in 2001 to our protest at the Boston Public Library earlier this year, the issue of DRM on eBooks and audiobooks is not a new one. OverDrive continues to push DRM on library patrons and libraries.
35 Days Against DRM -- Day 2: Netflix
Netflix currently offers streaming of movies at no extra charge with many of its DVD rental plans. The streaming service, which requires Microsoft Windows Media and Microsoft Silverlight technologies in order to operate, uses Digital Restrictions Management technologies to limit playback to authorized devices, such as the Netflix set top box, Microsoft's XBOX 360 console and personal computers running Microsoft's Windows or Apple's Mac OS X operating systems.
35 Days Against DRM — Day One: MacBook
Buy a new anti-DRM t-shirt from the Free Software Foundation's online store
Last year, we wrote about the fantastic anti-DRM t-shirt winners in TorrentFreak's contest.
Now, you can buy one of those shirts -- "DRM: No one admitted" by artist Mark Lindhout -- in the Free Software Foundation's online store.
MP3 Compatible
In Britain, seven of the largest retailers of MP3 downloads have produced a logo which promotes the MP3 format for DRM-free downloads.
The Entertainment Retailers Association devised the logo to emphasize the fact that MP3 files can be played on any digital player.
xkcd -- "Steal this comic"
"I spent more time trying to get an audible.com audio book playing than it took to listen to the book. I have lost every other piece of DRM-locked music I have paid for."
See the guide to DRM-free living for services that don't implement DRM.
Petition against SecuROM
If you're in the UK, please lend your support to this petition against SecuROM.
"With more and more consumers being effectively handcuffed by games producers using draconian methods of DRM, we require the government to protect our rights as consumers by investigating this issue. We maintain that 'limited installs' and 'online activation' are both misleading, immoral and discriminatory.
Hold your politicians accountable for PRO-IP
Sadly, President Bush has allowed himself and the Department of Justice to be manipulated by the RIAA and MPAA. On October 13th, he signed the PRO-IP bill into law, ignoring calls to veto it and pretty clear indications that the bill was promoted using completely fabricated statistics.
Last Chance: Tell Bush to veto the RIAA/MPAA Enforcement Bill
Stop the MPAA and RIAA shadow government: Oppose S. 3325
Update: Over the weekend, Congress sadly has passed the bill. But it's not law yet -- stay tuned for our next step.
Stop the RIAA from using the Department of Justice to do its dirty work
The RIAA is continuing to try coercion to prop up its illegitimate and unethical business model.
Spore and More: Activate against Electronic Arts
Electronic Arts (EA) and Amazon have been the targets of a justified online rebellion the last couple weeks. The impetus for the backlash is EA's use of Digital Restrictions Management (DRM) technology in its game Spore.
DRM down under
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) is Australia's Federal Government-funded public broadcaster, and has responsibilities under the ABC Act 1983 to provide services to the Australian people.
FoulPlay -- why free software and Apple's iPhone don't mix
In order for any program to be installed on the iPhone, the program must be cryptographically signed. When a user attempts to install software on her iPhone, the iPhone's Digital Restrictions Management (DRM) system checks to see if Apple considers the signature on the software to be valid.
If there is no signature or if the signature is invalid, the iPhone will refuse to install the software. If the software has been modified in any way, the signature check will fail. The signature check is also tied to the user's specific device, which means that she is not permitted to transfer or copy downloaded programs directly between iPhones, and any other copying is permitted or not permitted at Apple's whim. This system of rejecting software that doesn't pass a signature check -- even when modifications to the software are legally permitted -- was made famous by TiVo, and so is called "tivoization".
Yahoo Music -- the bad dream of DRM continues
Yahoo! has announced that its music store will be going offline at the end of September, taking with it the authorization keys for any music purchased. This appears to be something of a trend lately, with Microsoft announcing similar plans, only to go back on its original plans a few days later.
As Ars Technica puts it, "The bad dream of DRM continues" -- "Once the Yahoo store goes down and the key servers go offline, existing tracks cannot be authorized to play on new computers."
Major League Baseball and Google Video have both pulled similar stunts, with Google at least providing a refund for the media, but no DRM-free replacement.
Yahoo's own Ben Patterson spoke to Michael Spiegelman, the senior director for Yahoo! Music, about keeping the DRM servers going, like MSN has promised to do...
"We can't really talk to the specific numbers [in terms of cost]," said Spiegelman, adding that Yahoo! uses a third-party service to host its DRM license keys. "To be honest, it's a question of whether we want to spend the money supporting DRM tracks, versus spending that money on what people really do want [subscription and/or DRM-free music]."
When asked about replacing any purchased, DRM'd Yahoo! Music tracks with the equivalent DRM free tracks from Rhapsody, Spiegelman replied "We'll take those situations in a case-by-case fashion... We will be able to help users out who have a large number of tracks... We're not saying that that would be an impossible option... We'll see how much of a demand there is for it."
Take action!
Are you a Yahoo! Music customer? Contact Yahoo! Support and demand DRM-free replacements for all the songs you've legally purchased.
Update: Yahoo: We'll Reimburse Users for Terminated Music
CNET is reporting that customers will be offered refunds or DRM-free downloads, while Wired News is saying any DRM-free downloads could break any agreements Yahoo! has with record labels.
Ask Apple about the iPhone
Last week, we announced 5 reasons to avoid the iPhone. This has been met with a lot of excitement and some great feedback.
Some important questions were raised in this feedback. So, here is an opportunity to have some fun and get answers, straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak.
In every Apple retail store is a so-called "Genius Bar" -- a technical support station, the purpose of which is to offer help and support for Apple products.
You can use Apple's helpful online booking system (no registration required) to reserve time slots at the Genius Bar. There are currently 217 Apple stores in seven countries, giving us plenty of slots to book. We want as many people as possible to book slots this Friday, July 25, and Saturday, July 26. Why not book more than one? Having lots of slots booked will get Apple's attention and ensure that the Geniuses have done their homework.
Take these three easy steps to give Apple our iPhone Challenge:
1) Book a 10-minute slot now!
Book online: USA, Australia, Canada, Italy and the United Kingdom.
2) Let us know which stores you have booked using our online counter.
3) Digg this to encourage others to participate
At the Genius Bar....
Print out our handy questionnaire and information about how iPhone 3G restricts your freedom. If you have access to a color printer, you can also print out some of our snazzy iPhone flyers to hand out to people outside the store when you're done.
Head over to your local Apple Store at your designated time. Be sure to get a business card from your Genius first and then politely ask them the questions. For each question, give them a score between 1 and 32, with 1 being a really bad answer, and 32 being an answer that really showed insight into the restrictive practices of the iPhone.
The total score will be out of 160 -- the IQ level of Einstein, a certified genius. Rate your Genius's iQ to the same score, and if they get over 130, they're a genius -- any lower than that, and they're screwed. Glory and infamy awaits!
If you feel your Genius did particularly well, or particularly badly, please let us know their name, email address, and the store address -- it'll be on their business card. We'll send prizes and information accordingly.
Start by introducing yourself to your Genius.
"I'm from the DRM elimination crew at DefectiveByDesign.org -- I'd like to ask you a few questions about the defects Apple has designed into the iPhone 3G."
Why do all developers have to submit their applications to Apple before they can be loaded onto an iPhone?
Most smartphones, including those by OpenMoko, Nokia, RIM, Palm and even Microsoft, allow applications to come from a variety of sources, including free software developers. Free "as in freedom" software development requires that users and developers be able to share and modify the source code for programs they use. iPhone users are not permitted by Apple to share or load modified versions of programs distributed through the App Store -- even when a program's developer wants users to be able to do this! Apple markets itself as empowering, alternative technology -- How does Apple plan to support free software development?
Why does iTunes still contain so much DRM-laden music?
Services like Amazon, eMusic, Napster, Rhapsody, Play.com and 7digital are all selling music without DRM. A typical response to this might be that Apple has no option to sell media without DRM, but this is simply untrue. Jobs is the largest individual shareholder at Disney, and he could insist that its films be DRM-free. Apple should be leading the way to promote DRM-free music, but instead is lagging behind. What is Apple doing to fix this? If it really is the RIAA's fault, can you tell me specifically what the RIAA said to Jobs when he asked for the ability to sell DRM-free music?
The iPhone 3G has GPS support. How can users be sure that the GPS cannot be used to track their position, without their permission?
When the only thing preventing the GPS from being used is software, and the software in question is known only to Apple, why should iPhone users trust Apple? There is a privacy agreement, but how would I ever know that the agreement was violated?
In 'Thoughts on Music', Steve Jobs said, "it is useful to remember that all iPods play music that is free of any DRM and encoded in 'open' licensable formats such as MP3 and AAC".
If Jobs really wants to see open formats, why doesn't the iPhone play Ogg Vorbis, Ogg Theora video and FLAC? These formats require no licensing costs, and are not encumbered by patents. How does Apple plan to support these formats in the future? Will Apple approve applications for the App Store that support these formats?
Last question. Why can the iPhone 3G only be activated by Apple and AT&T?
In the United States, the Register of Copyrights has ruled that consumers have the right to unlock their phones and switch to a different carrier. How does Apple plan to remedy this discrepancy?
Next steps
Give your Genius their score, your contact information (if you want) and your handout, along with any additional feedback you have about the defects in iPhone 3G. Thank them for their time, and quickly and politely leave the store. Outside the store, distribute some of the flyers and spend some time talking to people about these issues.
Let us know how it went by sending an email to email@example.com with your Genius's information, score, and your comments.
5 reasons to avoid iPhone 3G
Rhapsody, Naxos go DRM-free.
We've made two additions to the guide to DRM free living -- Rhapsody and Naxos. Rhapsody is now offering MP3 downloads of lots of popular music, including all the major labels.
From their website —
Experience DRM-Freedom: Rhapsody MP3s aren't restricted by DRM. If acronyms aren't your thing, that means; when you buy a song or album from Rhapsody you can do whatever you want with it. Put it on your iPod or any other MP3 player, play it on as many computers as you want, or burn it to a CD as many times as you want.
Naxos has also moved to MP3 -- making audiobooks available in the format, with a huge selection of contemporary and classic titles, Naxos is a great place to get audiobooks.
What does this tell us? Well for one, Audible and iTunes are yet again, deceiving users with their DRM-laden materials. It also shows that more and more people are saying no to Digital Restrictions Management and that existing services are having to adapt to meet those demands.
Refusing Digital Monitoring Policies
Bruce Schneier has brought a new form of Digital Restrictions Management to our attention:
Microsoft is doing some of the most creative thinking along these lines, with something it's calling "Digital Manners Policies." According to its patent application, DMP-enabled devices would accept broadcast "orders" limiting capabilities. Cellphones could be remotely set to vibrate mode in restaurants and concert halls, and be turned off on airplanes and in hospitals. Cameras could be prohibited from taking pictures in locker rooms and museums, and recording equipment could be disabled in theaters. Professors finally could prevent students from texting one another during class.
It sounds innocent enough, until Schneier pulls back the curtain to show the real motivation behind these policies:
Don't be fooled by the scare stories of wireless devices on airplanes and in hospitals, or visions of a world where no one is yammering loudly on their cellphones in posh restaurants. This is really about media companies wanting to exert their control further over your electronics. They not only want to prevent you from surreptitiously recording movies and concerts, they want your new television to enforce good "manners" on your computer, and not allow it to record any programs. They want your iPod to politely refuse to copy music a computer other than your own. They want to enforce their legislated definition of manners: to control what you do and when you do it, and to charge you repeatedly for the privilege whenever possible.
Consumers are objecting en masse to the idea of their own computers and devices continuously and indiscriminately policing their activities via Digital Restrictions Management. So it's no surprise that Microsoft is hatching plans to soft-pedal these same restrictions under the term "manners." This is just old wine in new bottles -- Microsoft wants another way to control your activities.
Since they would be the patent holder, they can profit from selling this ability to monitor and control you to others. There's no doubt that their main customers would be the same media distribution companies who are struggling to cripple the technology that makes them irrelevant -- technology that enables many more artists and creators to share their works directly with the public.
Microsoft's patent abstract says:
Similar to some of the social manners honored among people, such as with "no smoking" or "employees only" zones, "no swimming" or "no flash photography" areas, and scenarios for "please wash your hands" or "no talking out loud", devices may recognize and comply with analogous "device manners" policy.
It's common for companies pedaling digital restrictions to try to find parallels in the analog world, to make the restrictions seem familiar and correct. But these are flawed comparisons -- no machine covers your mouth with duct tape when you enter a "no smoking" zone just to make sure that you don't smoke. Nobody breaks your fingers to make sure that you don't use the flash on your camera in a museum.
Digital restrictions require you to hand over your privacy and freedom in advance. They are inherently unsafe because people other than the intended parties can access these mechanisms for monitoring and restricting you. They are inherently untrustworthy because you aren't legally allowed to know what's going on behind the scenes on the device in your pocket, including the contents of its continuous conversation with whichever corporation it's reporting to. The purpose of the restrictions might sound benign but their mechanism is unacceptable -- and what these companies are actually after is acceptance of the mechanism, so that they can then put it to other uses.
Digital Restrictions Management and "Digital Manners Policies" both use the fear that some people might not do the right thing to justify treating everyone like a criminal and taking away our freedom. We shouldn't accept this justification to cripple what are otherwise incredibly useful and powerful tools for innovation and creativity. "Digital Manners Policies" are really "Digital Monitoring Policies," and we should refuse them.

A year or two later I played S. G-Bell in the Class Championship at Cherokee, NC. Nice venue btw. Anyway, our game was about dead even but I was in time trouble. At one point he got up sporting his now graying long hippie hair and began to do some type of yogi stretching exercises. Very distracting but still I tried to focus my attention on the board. Sadly, my skills weren't up to the task because he beat me in a classic Lucena ending which he obviously had memorized by heart (as we all should),
Anyway, he was a weird dude.
I googled the guy and found this funny article:
It seems you need to only break 1500 USCF to consider yourself a chess "expert" and hold simuls. I'd have squashed that peanut in a one-on-one game.
- The Cajun Chess Association - I went to 2 of their events. The first one, in Orlando in October 2003, the guys that ran it were off and busy drinking or doing whatever else. Nobody was there to direct. In 2006, In Charlotte, after they changed management, the woman who did registration and book sales was nice, and appeared to be intelligent, but they bring only 1 director for a 120 player weekend tournament, and he f'ing plays in it! You should NEVER have a tournament over 50 players without a NON-PLAYING Director! Small little 10 or 20 player tournaments where the director plays, fine! 120 player tournament with 3 directors, one of which playing, fine! But NOT 120 players, 1 director, and he plays.
Responding here because I know the lady from Cajun Chess relatively well. The tournaments run in Texas with Cajun Chess are very smoothly run. I know this because my father often works those tournaments (the past few years) and I TD'd one of their scholastic tournaments a few years back.
I know you have had troubles with them in the past (especially that previous guy who had serious life issues, FWIW, and is no longer connected to the company at all), but I promise that tournaments are not poorly run nowadays, at least the ones in Houston.
The most surprising incident happen at a chess tournament?
...and when we got home, we found a HOOK hanging from the CAR DOOR!!!
Anyway, my last run-in with the TD was when I finally beat his daughter in the final round of an open swiss. Every time he paired us, his daughter got white and would end up beating me. Even in the last game she got white, but I changed my opening repertoire and easily beat her. The TD then tried to log it in his computer as yet another win for her, but I caught it and refused to leave until I watched him correct the entry. He resisted for several minutes, but I wouldn't back down. After that, I never played in another one of his tournaments again.
Wow that's pretty terrible.
- Frank Berry - He's just an absolutely obnoxious human being. I've had the misfortune of playing him twice, once in SC, once in Fort Lauderdale at the US Open (a win and a draw, respectively). I understand he runs tournaments in Oklahoma
I've been to at least two of his tournaments before, billed as "North America Open." I've never played him OTB (played his brother once), so I don't know how obnoxious he may be, but the tournaments were well run.
One of the days before the last round they had something like 20 pizzas delivered, free to whoever wanted some pizza.
Playing in a tournament in Vegas. It was my first time in Vegas, so I guess I stayed out a little too late (got to my room at 4:30 am, morning round at 7:00). While playing my first game, my opponent threatened mate. I studied and found a way out of it that started with moving my King's Rook. Sat back to review, picked up my coffee . . . and it was my Queen's Rook! Oops
Beautiful story! It communicates especially well to other coffee lovers, such as myself.
Going to make one now, but I'm going to watch very carefully that I don't drink out of my own queen's rook by mistake.
I'll be drinking to successful defenses against mating threats!
are yougoing to the one in a few weeks?
Bobby Fischer wanted to have a house in the shape of a rook. Maybe it will pay you to get LatvianLover a coffee cup in the shape of a rook before you play him in Vegas .. you never know!
you and your coffee chess.
That's would really be a great example for coffee-house chess
No. I play poker now. I found that I'm not good enough at chess to spend $250 on entry fee. Plus hotel and travel expenses. I make about $12.50 an hour at Hollywood Park Casino. Haven't been active in USCF since about 2002 or 2003. Would like to play something local here in LA, for maybe $100 or less.
My opponent had a passed pawn, I went to capture it with my knight, but accidentally used his knight instead!
oh yeah. i had this weird time once.
a couple of years ago, i was in a tournament, and i was playing this guy and easily checkmated him, and he kept denying checkmate. after he hadn't playe a move for 5 minutes just trying to find the move that would stop checkmate, i called over a judge and he judged the situation as checkmate.
the guy started freaking out like he was having a hallucination of a monster, and then went under the table crying that i had somehow disrespected the guy's family.
i hadn't done anything except for win the game.
he kept freaking out and then the judge signed on his board that i had won and the person under the table had lost.
afterward, even while the guy under the table is claiming that i have been a disgrace to him and the rest of the world, the judge offers me a small trophy for sportsmanship, and i accept.
that was pretty weird.
personally, i think that there are others that are weirder, but this was pretty freaky. i ended up getting a 4.0/5.0 in the tournament.
This reminds me of this joke chess puzzle:
The solution is to promote the pawn to a black knight.
I have a story!
Once I was playing a blitz tournament and as my game finished I started to watch one of the top tables. The game was in the last minute. All of a sudden white promoted a pawn to a queen but there was none spare queen available so he grabbed a rook and put it upside down telling this is a queen, then the other player said: No it's a rook. Then they started quarreling about whetherthe upside down rook was a rook or a queen then the Black flag fell... The black player then angrily threw all pieces against the white player in a childish manner. Tense situation
The moment the opponent tried to claim it was still a rook, I'd have immediately paused the game clock to signal a TD to provide a queen. Never get into an argument with the opponent while the clock is running. That's just foolish.
I agree.... The TD told him he should have done this....
Back in the early 70s I played on a team in Detroit. We had to play 5 rounds in 5 consecutive weeks and I was playing the last board in our clubs lowest rated team.
I won all four of my previous games and when I showed up to play the 5th I was informed that our club president has brought in a ringer to play the first board, essentially moving everyone down one board bumping me off the team.
I walked out and never played another game of chess until just over a year ago.
The joke's on me... all those years wasted. I suck today because of my bruised ego 35+ years ago.
Chess players don't have egos. Wait... Oh yeah ;)
But being bumped like that sucks :(
This isn't OTB, actually a US Chess League game, but this was very interesting.
I am in a difficult ending when, to my surprise and excitement, my opponent allows me a move to get a 3-fold repitition. To make sure the claim goes through, I press the draw button, and it comes through as an offer of a draw, which he, of course declines. Then I make my move and press the draw button again, assuming that it goes through as a claim. It goes through as an offer AGAIN. At this point he probably assumes I am just being annoying, and declines again. Later, when the draw was certain, I was engineering a forced sequence of checks to ice the draw. After doing this for a couple of moves, he offers a draw. However, since I am mechanically making moves, I don't see it and make another move. Then, to my bewilderment, HE claims the draw on reptition. How did he do it and I couldn't? Anyway, if I had lost the game, I would have been mad due to the earlier repitition. Plus, the game could've ended on move 46 instead of 106.
Later I look back at the game and discover, shocker, there was no reptition. But then at some tourney someone asks me why didn't I claim the draw by repitition. I look back again and discover, shocker, it's back again!
The game was played on chess.com that particular week and I'm wondering why this happened.

For coverage under the eyes I used my Cinema Secrets palette in foundation palette 11. Click here to see which one.
If your an MUA or a girl who really needs coverage this is a must buy!
Now on to the lips :)
As a woc it's super hard to find a good nude.. they all end up looking really pink on me.. so I decided to make my own!
This is how I did it:
- Line your lips and fill in with a lip pencil that is closest to your skin tone. ( I used Cocoa from Amuse)
- Apply a MATTE foundation that is your skin tone to your lips. ( I used Ben Nye's Matte foundation)
- Set it with powder that is your skin tone. ( I used MAC mineralized skin finish in Deep Dark)

Revelations (Audioslave album)
|Studio album by Audioslave
|September 4, 2006
|October 2005 - January 2006
|Brendan O'Brien
|Audioslave chronology
|Singles from Revelations
Revelations is the third and final studio album by the American rock supergroup Audioslave, released on September 4, 2006 internationally and a day later in the United States by Epic Records and Interscope Records. The band's lead vocalist Chris Cornell departed from the band shortly after Revelations' release in February 2007. Brendan O'Brien, who has produced or mixed the albums of numerous major rock acts, including Rage Against the Machine, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, The Offspring, Pearl Jam, King's X, Incubus, and Bruce Springsteen, reunited with Tom Morello, Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk after producing the Rage Against the Machine albums Evil Empire and The Battle of Los Angeles and their cover of Springsteen's "The Ghost of Tom Joad".
Audioslave had 20 songs written (a few of which were sampled during their 2005 tour),[1] and returned to the studio in early January 2006 to finish recording them. For Revelations, which was influenced by 1960s and 70s music, Cornell adopted his "seventies funk and R&B-flavor vocals."[2] Guitarist Tom Morello described the sound as "Earth, Wind and Fire meets Led Zeppelin".[3] Musically, the album is similar to Audioslave's previous album, but with a twist. The band incorporates soul and funk influences in many (if not all) of the songs on the album. Love, life and loss are all themes on the new album. Political activism is also starting to rear its head in Audioslave's music with songs such as "Wide Awake", which uses the Hurricane Katrina disaster and George W. Bush as subject matter.[4]
Morello stated that Revelations was "the first record [Cornell] didn't smoke, drink or take drugs through the recording."[5] However, Morello said: "Chris was stone sober during the making of our Out of Exile album. Chris was also sober during the making of Revelations and prior to recording he gave up smoking as well. I apologize for any confusion or concern that was stirred up by the original article. Sobriety can be a matter of life or death and Chris' courage in maintaining his health for years has been an inspiration."[6] The band had completed the record when producer Brendan O'Brien requested one more song to close it. The next day, they wrote and recorded "Moth", making it the last song Audioslave made together. Interestingly enough, Chris Cornell sings in it "I won't fly around your fire anymore". [7]
Despite the exposure to other forms of media and the positive critical buzz for their third album, Audioslave did not tour behind the release. They went into hiatus to allow Cornell to complete "You Know My Name", the theme song for the 2006 James Bond film, Casino Royale, and Morello to pursue his own solo work under the moniker of The Nightwatchman.[8] News about Cornell's departure first emerged in July 2006, when insiders stated that after the third album he would split for a solo career. The singer immediately denied the rumors, stating "We hear rumors that Audioslave is breaking up all the time. ... I always just ignore [them]."[8] On February 15, 2007, Cornell officially announced his departure from Audioslave, stating that "Due to irresolvable personality conflicts as well as musical differences, I am permanently leaving the band Audioslave. I wish the other three members nothing but the best in all of their future endeavors."[9] As the other three members were busy with the Rage Against the Machine reunion, and Morello and Cornell had each released solo albums in 2007, Audioslave was officially disbanded.[10]
Many of the tracks have not been performed live, as Cornell left the band in 2007. "One and the Same", "Wide Awake", and "Sound of a Gun" were played by the band during the Out of Exile tour, and Cornell performed alone recently acoustic versions from "Until We Fall", "Original Fire", and "Wide Awake". Lacking a lead vocalist and with the band's future in question, the remaining members have not toured in support of the album.

Revelations entered the Billboard 200 at the number two spot with 150,631 copies. The album has sold nearly one million copies worldwide. The album has been certified gold in the US for shipments of 500,000, in Canada for shipments of 50,000, in Australia for shipments of 35,000 (first week), and in New Zealand for shipments of 7,500 (first week). The first two singles were "Original Fire" and "Revelations".
When marketing for the album, the band had the fictional nation dubbed 'Audioslave Nation' shown on the album art featured on Google Earth.[18] Prior to the album's release, the title track appeared in the video game Madden NFL 2007. The songs "Wide Awake" and "Shape of Things to Come" were prominently featured in Michael Mann's 2006 film, Miami Vice, prior to the release of the album.
On July 3, 2006, a private listening party was held for fan club members and non-fan club contest winners. The album gained a strong fan review, noting a darker tone, and anthemic choruses. The album received mixed reviews, gaining a 60 out of 100 metascore at Metacritic based on 15 reviews.[14] Rolling Stone wrote: "Most of these twelve tracks are impressive structures with periodic highs... that never resolve into songs."

It would be tough to find a fan that wants to admit it, but could the 76ers" target="_blank">Philadelphia 76ers' season be close to lost?
As of right now, it's still alive and kicking, but a 17-23 start has them starting near the bottom and looking to fight their way up.
Having a bad year and struggling to make the playoffs doesn't mean that management can just give up and quit their jobs, though. Their main focus needs to be on what steps they need to take to turn the Sixers into a better team for the future.
Being an owner or general manager certainly can't be easy. You're pretty much in charge of decisions that will affect a team that thousands, maybe even millions, of people love and care about. On top of that, those fans dictate how much money goes into management's pockets.
Not an easy job at all.
That doesn't mean that we as fans should give them any breaks, however. The best way to show that we care is by being diligent in making sure that we give them our best ideas.
How was that for a pep talk?
Okay, so maybe my inspirational speeches are not that great. Before I dig myself a bigger hole, let's get back to talking about Philadelphia and what their next moves should be.
Here are five things that Philly's management must do if this season looks lost.
All statistics in this article are accurate as of games played through Jan 18.

"The Book of Mormon" touring production comes to the Forrest Theatre July 29 for a seven-week engagement. / Joan Marcus
Coming from a Southern Baptist background, Stanley Wayne Mathis felt the need to warn some of his friends and family to stay away when he was cast in "The Book of Mormon," which makes its Philadelphia debut tomorrow at the Forrest Theatre. "I told a few friends that I grew up with, 'If you can't deal with God and the F-bomb in the same sentence, this isn't the show for you. Don't come just to support me,' Mathis says with a chuckle. "My sister still hasn't seen the show."
Mathis, who was in the Broadway version before joining the touring cast, admits to having his own initial reservations about signing on to sing what he calls "the most blasphemous song in the show" — despite finding the material hilarious. But he soon came to realize that there was more going on than simply potshots at religion — and he would know, having sampled quite a few of them over the years.
"I started out Southern Baptist," Mathis says, "but I grew up in the projects in Washington, D.C., where there was no Baptist church at the time, so my mom had to send me to a Catholic church because she figured that any church was better than none. Then I had a period of Islam and when I got to New York I even had a period of Buddhism."
"Book of Mormon" creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, who co-wrote the Tony-winning show with "Avenue Q" composer Robert Lopez, have a long history of wringing humor from the Mormon faith, first in their early film "Orgazmo" and later on an infamous episode of their long-running animated series "South Park." But Mathis, who was a big fan of "South Park" long before ever working with its creators, insists that Mormonism is not a target here.
"It takes a hit at all organized religions and asks you to go back and reevaluate what your original goals were in the first place," he says. "We can tend to get so far away from what those things were established for, but religion is not black and white; it's got grey areas and a whole spectrum of colors. I like this show because it's really smart and it has such heart to it. It's not just shock value for shock value. It's political satire and social commentary wrapped up into entertainment."

Surprise: Jesus Lives in Australia
Posted on May 29, 2013
An Australian man living in rural Queensland claims to be Jesus reborn and, as he points out, "There were lots of people in the first century who didn't believe I was the messiah and were offended by what I said, and in fact I died at the hands of some of them."
Comedian Ricky Gervais is tickled by the man:

Friday, May 2nd, 2008 South Carolina, the state some Christians want to see secede from the Union to become a political Garden of Eden for evangelicals, has run afoul of the American Jewish Congress. This week the group weighed in with Gov. Mark Sanford, urging him to veto a bill creating state license plates that say "I believe," along with the image of a cross. Marc Stern, the AJCongress' tireless church-state warrior and general counsel, said in a letter to Sanford that "it is long since settled that the government may not lend its support to one religion by permanently displaying on its own behalf the religious symbols of one faith." Private parties, he said, can display whatever religious symbols they want on their cars - those ubiquitous fish symbols come to mind — or even purchase vanity plates with religious messages, such as references to Bible verses. But the state goes too far when it "creates special Christian plates by special legislation, with no assurances that other faiths could obtain similar legislative approval for plates of their faiths," Stern wrote. In other words, it's a big church-state no-no. That brings up an interesting point; how would South Carolina legislators respond if Jewish groups sought create a special plate - maybe saying "chosen," along with a menorah? And would the state's reaction be if local Muslims called for plates with their own slogans and symbols? The South Carolina Senate has already passed the Christian license plate bill; it is pending in the state's General Assembly.

Housing official pleads to DUISeptember 12,2013
Staff Report
BARRE — The executive director of the Barre Housing Authority has received a suspended sentence and probation after pleading guilty this month to drunken driving.
Charles "Chip" Castle, 60, changed his plea and was sentenced during a hearing Sept. 4 at the criminal courthouse in Rutland.
In exchange for the guilty plea, Castle, who has one prior DUI conviction, received a suspended sentence of six to 12 months and was placed on probation, according to court officials. Castle initially pleaded not guilty to the charge at his July 22 arraignment, they said.
Castle's latest DUI can be traced to the early evening of July 3, when state police say he was pulled over at a checkpoint on State Street in Rutland. During the stop, police determined he was operating under the influence. Castle was briefly taken into custody and later released on a citation.
Castle is a former longtime member of the Barre Town Select Board and has served as the Barre Housing Authority's executive director since 2004.MORE IN This Just InWARDSBORO Vermont State Police said Friday that Kirby Staib of Wardsboro, who was allegedly...

Today we went to the park for entertainment. Fed the ducks some stale cereal (which they didn't like much-- Gorilla Crunch-- but the birds did). Dh insisted he needed a $10 hand saw to trim the tree. I *suppose* that was necessary, as the tree was dropping leaves into the neighbor's yard. I wonder if I can "need" a Little Beetles diaper.

We see a future where every pet finds a lifelong, loving home. We are a nonprofit that saves the lives of homeless pets.
By partnering, donating and volunteering, we support organizations dedicated to improving their communities.
We can connect you with the right pet. Save a life today.
Crates, carriers, doors, and kennels are all designed to keep your pet safe and secure. You have a number of choices available, depending on your particular needs.
These are generally made of a high-density polypropylene. These durable carriers are the only type of crate accepted on airlines. They make excellent indoor homes for your pet because the pet feels safe and secure inside it. Padded, washable foam pads are available to make the crate a little more comfortable. micro-climate for the larvae to thrive."
These are made of a softer, more flexible material and are used for transporting small pets. They are equipped with handles and have "windows" for the pet to see out. Some airlines allow pets to travel in the main cabin under your seat in soft carriers. Make sure you allow adequate space for the pet to stand up, move around, and be comfortable.
Metal wire crates are well ventilated, provide the best visibility, and are collapsible for easy cleaning, transporting and storage. They are particularly helpful for housetraining or for limiting a pet to a small area when you leave the house. Use our wire-crate sizing guide to find the right crate for your dog. Wire crates may not be airline approved, so contact your airline for more details. Placing a crate pad inside can make it more cozy for your pet.
These may be used for transporting cats or very young puppies a short distance; for example, traveling to the veterinarian.
Kennels and pens are a more permanent means of keeping your dog within a limited space. They are large, they may or may not have a top, and are constructed of metal. Some pens are collapsible so that they can be easily moved or stored. There are also open-air kennel playpens for cats that provide a safe place for cats to play.
Gates are the perfect solution if you want to limit your dog to a particular part of the house while giving him freedom to move about. They are installed in the opening of a doorway, but still allow you to pass through
Tired of going to the door every time your dog wants to go in or out? Consider a pet door. Pet doors allow your dog or cat to go inside and outside as they please. Some doors are installed in an existing wall or door. Other doors are installed as a separate panel that serves as an extension to a sliding glass door. In all cases, pet doors can be locked to keep the pet inside or outside, and to be an added security. (Note: If you allow your pet to go outdoors, ensure they are equipped with an ID tag, microchip or other means of identification in case they are lost.)
Does your dog like to "go for a ride?" Auto barriers are gates that you can install in your vehicle that will keep your dog from moving all over your vehicle while you're trying to drive safely. It still allows your dog to move around, but it limits the space where he can move. This makes driving much safer for you and keeps your dog's head inside the vehicle, which is safer for him. If a dog barrier allows too much freedom for your small pet, then consider a dog safety harness to make sure your dog is riding securely.
