During difficult economic times it shouldn't be surprising that many people have gone back to borrowing books instead of running down to B&N to spend $30 on the latest best seller. photo by Bernadette Kazmarski One of my assignments as borough councilman is to hold a seat on the board of our local public library. It is a duty I sought out not only because of my belief in the importance of libraries, but also because of my fond memories of spending time in this special place as a youngster. Our library, the Andrew Carnegie Free Library and Music Hall, is also an ...
In the wee hours of Saturday morning I readied myself for the long day trip to Washington. I talked Debbie into giving me a ride downtown because I wasn't sure if there would be a bus at 5:15 AM on a Saturday. Fortunately, because it was Saturday, that drive downtown was only 10 minutes. Close to 180 union members and supporters gathered at the United Steel Workers headquarters building on the Boulevard of the Allies in the chilly, 48° darkness. Our group was mainly comprised of USW and UWUA members, but there were some college kids there who, I believe, ...
It was a Wednesday evening in July and I managed to find a good parking space at the Teamsters hall in Lawrenceville. Inside the union hall all the windows were open; it was very hot and humid that night and there was no AC inside the meeting hall. I guess the climate was appropriate considering that our topic that night was organizing workers in Vietnam. [caption id="attachment_753" align="alignright" width="240" caption="Jackie Bong-Wright"][/caption] Amnesty International was the driver of this particular get-together because they have been publicizing the case of three union organizers who have been jailed in Vietnam.

Each year, after the sun sets on the 14th day of Hebrew month of Nisan, Jews retell the story of the Exodus at an annual family feast. The transition from slavery to freedom, orchestrated by God's hand, is a great story with universal appeal. I never grow tired of telling it. Last week I received in the mail a Passover appeal from the Jewish Labor Committee. The headline read, "Pharaoh refuses to negotiate; hundreds of thousands of Israelite workers walk of job site." While catchy and humorous, it none-the-less reminds us of a simple fact about slavery— it's all about ...
Mass transit is the life blood of any city. An increasing number of workers can't afford cars and depend on public transportation to get to and from work. Likewise for college students. In Pittsburgh, severe transportation funding cuts are likely forthcoming in the next state budget and both workers and employers are very concerned about how they will manage. Transit workers will be furloughed. And non-bus riders are worried about the impact on traffic congestion as commuters switch from bus to car. Last week, a downtown employer (Dial America) announced it was expanding its operations— somewhere else. Bill Griffin manages a ...

Next week it will have been one year since SDUSA endorsed Bernie Sanders for president. A lot has happened in the intervening 12 months. Bernie went from zero name recognition to being a real threat to the status quo within the Democratic Party. Although he had never run as a Democrat, the 75 years old Sanders captured 43% of the Democratic vote nationwide. And whether we cry foul over DNC partisanship or the inconsistencies in state primary vote tallies, the reality is that Hillary Clinton is the Democratic nominee. At the convention, realizing that Hillary wanted his endorsement, Bernie was able to negotiate platform planks that his constituency demanded. Those included: $15 minimum wage, a public option for the ACA, a "21st Century Glass-Steagall Act" to reform Wall Street, paid family leave, elimination of private prisons, expansion of Social Security, and end of the death penalty. After the negotiation of the platform, which Sanders called the "most progressive" in Democratic Party history, he gave his endorsement to Clinton. And we should do the same.
I understand that disgruntled Berniecrats may wish to vote for Jill Stein or even Gary Johnson. But in the words of Bernie himself, "This is no time for a protest vote". While the presidential campaign may resemble a tv reality show like America's Got Talent, the hard work of winning a campaign means assembling a coalition of various, sometimes divergent, constituencies. In his 1965 essay From Protest to Politics, former SDUSA Chair Bayard Rustin wrote, "We need allies. The future of the Negro struggle depends on whether the contradictions of this society can be resolved by a coalition of progressive forces which becomes the effective political majority in the United States. I speak of the coalition which staged the March on Washington, passed the Civil Rights Act, and laid the basis for the Johnson landslide—Negroes, trade unionists, liberals, and religious groups". As an SDUSA member, you must work to build a progressive coalition that becomes the MAJORITY in electoral politics. Otherwise, you're just a protester.
The National Committee of SDUSA endorses Hillary Clinton for president. We also ask that you vote for a Democratic majority in the House and Senate. And we further ask that you support Democratic candidates down ticket at the state and local level. Building a coalition starts in your neighborhood. But it does not stop there. After we elect Hillary Clinton, we must hold the Democratic Party to its new platform. Electoral action is work, and that work never ends.
No SDUSA members attended the Democratic National Convention as delegates, but that doesn't mean we weren't present. SDUSA was represented among the thousands who gathered at FDR Park in Philadelphia to mount various rallies and protests. Our Vice Chair Michael Mottern (in the photo, on the left) tells me about the experience.
Rick: It sounds like FDR Park was the rallying point for all the various protest groups. Tell me about that.
Michael: Actually the meet-up location was City Hall. All the visiting groups were coordinated through philly.fyi. The field organizer was Jamhar James and he did a great job. The big march was on Sunday, from City Hall to FDR Park. FDR Park is across the road from Wells Fargo Center where the Democratic Convention was held. It was about a 3 ½ mile parade down Broad Street. The march included many different groups: socialists, environmentalists, black lives matter, legalizing pot, etc. Black Men for Bernie surprisingly had a very large presence. Altogether, I don't know how many people were there; I'm no good at estimating crowds, but many thousands of people were there. The newspaper would give a better estimate.
Rick: The press liked to focus on some of the outlier groups, like the ones burning the US and Israeli flags. What was the general tone of the rallies?
Michael: I didn't see any flag burning. It may have been a small group. There were so many people there, it would be easy to miss something. Overall, it was very peaceful. The police were very good. Polite, easy going. Based on what I saw at FDR Park, I would even say many of them were supportive.
Rick: We heard that hotel rooms were costing into the thousands of dollars during the convention. Protesters don't have that kind of money.
Michael: I stayed at a cheap hotel on the other side of the river in Camden. Not a very safe area. But the hotel was full of protesters and we traveled on a bus to and from the hotel to Philly each day. We didn't have any trouble and I met a lot of great people. Philly.fyi had bottled water to keep everyone hydrated and they had porta-johns everywhere. Maybe the city gave them the money to take care of the protesters? Philly.fyi did a great job. There were a lot of people that were trying to overnight in the park, but they weren't allowed. Police had to evict them, but I didn't hear of any violence or serious incidents. There were lots of food trucks for people to get something to eat, and Food Not Bombs was giving away hummus sandwiches and fresh vegetables. I and everyone else appreciated it.
Rick: How were your interactions with other socialist groups?
Michael: I spoke with some DSA people. They are kind of "cliquey". They think highly of themselves. One said to me, "You guys are still around?" in a smart ass way. I also spoke with a member of Socialist Alternative. She asked me how we could have a Hillary voter as a member. I said, "We're a democratic organization. We try to influence how our members vote, we don't mandate how they vote". She smirked and walked away. Unfortunately, there's still a lot of democratic centralism on the left.
Notes: Here is the website for philly.fyi.
It's probable that portions of Melania Trump's speech at the Republican National Convention were lightly rephrased versions of passages from a Michele Obama speech. If this was done by a speech writer, Melania is not really guilty of anything. If it was done by Melania, it suggests that maybe her view of the Obamas is more favorable than that of her husband, i.e., if she drew from the speech so much, she must have really liked it on some level. In either case, Hillary would be advised to cut her some slack by, say, issuing a statement that she doesn't doubt that the speech expresses the sincerity of Melania's belief in her husband.
The key point has already been made–that this incident is yet more evidence that the Republicans and the Trump campaign are in disarray. To keep the issue alive serves no useful purpose. I say this not because I have a fondness for models (even a model from a former non-Stalinist Slovenian communist family), but because it's the smart thing to do–it helps to show that Hillary's the adult in the race who wants to keep things focussed on what matters.
Jul 16
Bernie has been saying that he wants to start a grass roots political revolution. Most of his followers aren't listening.
Our cult of celebrity culture makes it appear that there is only one election in America— the presidency. Thousands came out to see Bernie at rallies all over the country; like a rock star. And now that he's lost the Democratic primary, they are disgruntled and angry. Bernie, however, wants to keep the movement going. Having been in politics for most of his life, he knows that a movement is not just one election. He says that we need to harness that energy and put it to work in local and state politics. I am not optimistic that this will happen. Ask most Bernie supporters if they are willing to run for office, or even for a seat on their local Democratic Committee. It's a 4 year commitment. Most people today cannot imagine agreeing to do something for 4 years, let alone 6 or 8. Most political activity today consists of FB clicking. Bernie will be very disappointed if he thinks he can channel that into a movement.
Regarding voting for Hillary and the concept of least worst candidate. As we live in a democracy, by definition we will always be picking the least worst candidate. There is no perfect candidate, there is only the candidate who best aligns with my policies and is most competent. The term "least worst" is just a sarcastic way of saying "none of the candidates is my ideal candidate". Welcome to democracy. You will recall that many social democrats and progressives were turned off by Bernie's position on guns. There is no perfect candidate. If Bernie had won we would be elated, but there would be millions of other voters who feel that they would be forced to pick the least worst between Bernie and Donald in November. That's the way elections work. I will vote for Hillary, and I won't hold my nose while doing so. I have listened to Jill Stein and in no way, shape, or form, is she ready to represent America on the world stage as diplomat and be commander of our military. The only political office she has ever held was Town Meeting Seat in the town of Lexington, Mass. Her only qualification for president is that she is not Hillary Clinton. I respect your right to disagree and that's what elections are for.
And that brings us back to the fact that the presidency is not the only election. Congress makes the laws and appropriates money, and Congress is run by Republicans. They do a piss poor job and we the voters have allowed that to happen. We got to this point by thinking that only the president is important and ignoring Congressional elections. We must break that mentality! The majority of voters in my state are registered as Democrats. In 2008 there was a massive turnout to elect Barack Obama. But was weak turnout for the 2010 Congressional and State elections. As a result the Republicans took control of our state government and gerrymandered the Congressional districts in their favor. Consequently, we now have 13 Republican House Representatives in Congress and 5 Democratic Reps (in a majority Democratic state!). This is how people like Paul Ryan get to be Speaker of the House. All of that because democrats in my state didn't show up to vote for their state legislator. I know that many social democrats believe the Democratic Party is unfixable and they want to leave. But if they are leaving just because Bernie failed to gain the top spot, they're making a mistake. Creating a party large enough to elect a president is a huge undertaking. You have to become the majority party in a majority of states. Growing the Green Party to that size will take decades and I don't believe there is political willpower amongst that masses to make that happen. However, a Sanders' revolution in the Democratic Party at the local and state level could result in Social Democrats becoming a majority of the party in 5-10 years. And that is an achievable goal.

Nearly every city or town in the United States has a theater. These venues are usually reserved for plays, musicals, and concerts that are too small for a full-sized arena. These venues are extremely important because they provide a location for acting to be presented in its purest form.
Social Events
The theater is, and has always been, a social place. Once you arrive, you can meet and mingle with like-minded people. You can also plan to meet your friends at the venue and go out for drinks after the performance. A visit to the theater is only the start of a night out on the town.
Reflect on Ourselves
Depending on the theater, the play being shown causes us to reflect on ourselves. There is something special about seeing the powerful performance of a well-written play. This can actually be life changing for some people, as it opens them up to new ideas that they otherwise might have ignored.
Contribute to Education
When schools get involved and take children to the theater on field trips, it helps contribute to the education system. This can also promote literacy by encouraging children to read the stories that they have witnessed firsthand. You never know, the next generation of playwrights could be inspired at a local venue.

Carnegie CETO 6 technology
This project will deploy the next generation of Carnegie's 100% owned and invented CETO wave energy technology.
- Lead organisation:
- Carnegie Wave Energy
- Location:
- Offshore of Garden Island, WA
- Technology:
- Ocean energy
- ARENA program:
- Emerging Renewables Program
- Start date:
- June 2014
The CETO 6 project will deploy three grid-connected CETO 6 units off the coast of Garden Island.
CETO 6 will deliver increased power generation capacity compared to CETO 5, and its improved efficiency will reduce power costs.
Project details
Carnegie will undertake design, construction, deployment and demonstration of a grid-connected wave generation project with up to 3MW peak installed capacity off Garden Island, Western Australia.
This project will use Carnegie's Australian invented and owned CETO technology, building on the learnings from their Perth Wave Energy Project, and applying these to the next generation, CETO 6.
Project innovation
This project aims to demonstrate the CETO technology in higher sea states and in increased wave power. It will be located further offshore, where greater wave power is present.
The CETO 6 buoy oscillates with the ocean's waves, transferring energy to a power conversion unit located inside the buoy, generating power offshore and transmitting it onshore via a subsea cable.
Each CETO 6 unit is expected to be capable of generating up to 1MW – approximately four times the generation capacity of the CETO 5 technology currently being used in Carnegie's Perth Wave Energy Project. The units' larger size and capacity will result in lower cost of power production.
The Australian Department of Defence will purchase the power generated by the project under its power supply agreement with Carnegie, which will provide electricity for HMAS Stirling, Australia's largest naval base.

When there is a double turn lane, the car in the inside lane MUST stay in the inside lane when they complete their turn. I get lots of morons in the inside lane who swing wide and turn into my lane, cutting me off.
Also, when I'm making a right turn, the car across the way turning left into the street will turn left instead of yielding, as the right turning car has the right of way.
Oh, and liberals, enviro-nazis, and tree-huggers.

Robert Day's basketball career took a big turn recently: no more 25-hour bus rides that end 15 minutes before the game starts. That's what it was like in Mexico, just another stop in his vagabond life as a semipro basketball player.
You don't remember Day? He starred at Portland's Benson High in the late 1990s and became Western Oregon University's most prolific scorer ever.
"It was a growing experience," he says of his time in Mexico. "Sometimes we played in front of 7,000 people, and sometimes it was more like 300—and not in the nicest part of town."
Didn't know they played pro hoops in Mexico? How about in Spain, France, Saudi Arabia, Canada or China?
How about the International Basketball League and Portland's IBL franchise, the Chinooks, who began their 23-game season March 11 with a 139-120 win over the Vancouver, Wash., Volcanoes?
As March Madness goes into overdrive for today's college basketball stars, the average sports fan's hoop dreams may be all about big-time basketball. But for many players like 25-year-old Day, hoop dreams are all about making a couple hundred bucks a game in front of about 1,000 people who come out to see them play. The IBL has teams in 31 cities, including Bend, Medford, Salem and Eugene.
After leaving Western Oregon, Day bounced around Germany, back to Portland and then to Mexico. But by his second season he was burned out on the long bus rides to as many as four games a week.
Now he's back for a second stint with the Chinooks. His teammates include David Lucas, a two-time all-Pac-10 player at Oregon State University who hurt his knee after finishing school in 2005; Hasan Artharee (Portland State University, class of 2000); and former Oregon Duck Andre Joseph, who will join Day as soon as he's done with his own season in Mexico.
The IBL's Vancouver Volcanoes have an even more Portland-flavored roster, with Michael Lee (Jefferson High and University of Kansas), Tyron Manlove (Oregon), Kevin Field and Porter Troupe (University of Portland).
The Chinooks practice in a gym off Northeast 122nd Avenue. They pay players from $30 to $300 per game. Some players share apartments and get help finding part-time jobs; Day works for a contracting company.
"It's a great way to stay in shape," Day says, "and I'm always looking for a good opportunity. Some guys, depending on where they're at in their career, are still striving to get to the next level. Some guys are just here because they love the game."

update on 9.13.2011 - Sukiyoshi's open source license has changed to the MIT open source license.
update on 3.8.2012 - Sukiyoshi has been updated to work on Sitecore 6.4 and up and has a specific release for it you can jump over to the Sukiyoshi open source repository for the specifics.
Over the past few years I've been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to work with Brightcove and was given a development account for their platform that I could work against. In that time I went and took the existing .NET SDK Tanaris that had implemented the video read methods and blew out the rest of the read and write methods for the videos and playlists. I ended up learning a lot and had started my own branch of the code. I named it Sukiyoshi, after my wife. I did a lot of work on Sitecore sites at the same time and after having built More Interop with Douglas Couto, which used a lot of video, I realized that being able to outsource the video management aspect of a Sitecore website could have greatly simplified our task.
This brings us to the point of our story: Brightcove in Sitecore. There are of course a thousand ways to do this and I've probably tried half of them. My current job gives me a unique opportunity to match the potential of this project with an actual need I feel like what I've come up with is a pretty good solution. I will say there is a good deal of customization that you must be comfortable with, but it will allow you some good flexibility when it comes to multilingual, multisite installations.
The installation relies on two open source libraries and a sitecore package. I'll walk through what's in the package that you should be aware of and a bit of what you'll expect when you start working with it. Let's start with the files that get installed with the sitecore package. There's two bin files: BrightcoveSDK.dll and BrightcoveSDK.SitecoreUtil.dll. They contain the bulk of the labor. The first is just the library you need to connect to Brightcove in a .NET site without Sitecore. The other will add a lot of functionality specific to Sitecore.
Next are a handful of files that live deep in the Sitecore folder. The path is provided in the image. To add buttons and dialog windows to the Rich Text Editor there is a RichText Commands-Brightcove.js file whose content must be copied into the RichText Commands.js file. Then there is an InsertVideo folder which contains the SheerUI XmlControls and some javascript that allow you to select the player/video/playlists.
There's some files in the sitecore modules folder that are the what is loaded into the custom editor tabs.
There is also a handful of changes that you must add to your web.config file so in the root website folder is a Brightcove.config file with those specific changes including the very important Brightcove account information, a handler definition, pipeline events etc.
Inside Sitecore itself there are also a good number of items that you should know about. First in the core are the content editor tabs. These are pretty essential to giving the end user a good UI to work with when they want to view a preview a video in a player or edit an item or even add images to a video. I'll go more into what those look like further into the article.
There are also two items that provide the buttons in the wysiwyg that trigger the Sheer UI XmlControl dialog windows to open. You should notice that this is only set by default to the "Full" profile and you will need to duplicate the buttons and place them in other profiles should you need to.
There are also a few templates that support the Video Library structure. Most of the fields on these items are also shared so that it's not languages specific and will be the same no matter what language you happen to be using.
The system also supports multiple accounts so when you create each account there is a branch template that prepopulates it with the subfolders you'll need to get started.
One of the features that is supported is the ability to link text to a popup of a video. To do this you'll be relying on a myriad of javascript libraries. To allow developers the flexibility to use the package of their choice, you can define a profile for each type of js library. There is a default, which is populated with prettyPhoto because that's what I use, but you can create others and define which domain name each should be used for. This is so that in the event that you want one of the ten sites your running to work with the newest prettiest thing, you will be able to do just that. There are two types of settings: attributes and querystring params. It allows you enough leverage to create customized profiles.
The only thing left that is provided on installation is the Brightcove Media library section. This is installed under the content node not under the media library node because it's not actual media, it's just content. It's semantic really and if you don't like the idea of it, feel free to download the source and change it to suit your needs. After installation one of the first things you'll need to do is create an account. Just right-click on the Brightcove Media node and insert and account folder.
I created one named "Mark" since this will be pointing to my developer account.
Once created you'll need to go to the content tab and add in your publisher id. This can be found in brightcove under the Home section if you click on the "profile" link. Punch it in and hit save.
Then click on the Brightcove Account tab and click on the "Update Library". I've provided some other options so that as you're library grows you're not overwriting something you may be working on or you want to limit what it is you're trying to do. For now you should have nothing so you'll just want to add new items. When it's finished, assuming you have videos and playlists in your account, you'll see the number of them displayed. There are some videos that are being transcoded that may not show up immediately. There are also other errors that could have occurred with your videos that may not allow them to be available from the API method calls so if the number of videos doesn't exactly match what you have in your account don't freak out just look at Brightcove first and see if there's something that might be blocking it first. At this point it's worth noting that Brightove's API only supports read/write for videos and playlists but not players. You will have to enter those by hand. I apologize if you have a lot of players and I've had to do a lot of these myself and I would have automated them but I don't make the rules or the API.
Okay so now we've got some media. What else is there?
Well on the Video Library item you'll see that you also have the option of updating just your videos. I thought it would be nice to have update items in a more granular way. There is also a video upload control that has it's visibility hidden. You can opt to use this if you trust yourself to do so. There is an upper limit to what can be uploaded this way. I've found that anything below 5MB is fine but there is no feedback to tell you how long it will take. Anything over 5MB will take so long it may stall and you'll never know. Also you don't really want your server killing itself trying to upload videos when it should be serving up pages, but it's there if you want or need it.
When you click on a Video item you'll be presented with the Video tab. I've created a form that allows you the ability to update the fields that the API allows you to update. The others that can't be updated are still visible though at the bottom. If you're going to update your videos through Sitecore you should use this tab because it updates both Brightcove and the Sitecore item. You shouldn't update the content fields in the content tab because when you do an update those values, if you have update existing items, the data will be overwritten because it was never written back to Brightcove. I'm using Sitecore only to store the information locally but the master copy is Brightcove itself and will always take priority over what is stored. You can also update the video from this tab. Again a very granular level of control. From this tab you can also delete the video. It's there but don't kill yourself with it.
Also on a video is the Image Tab. This allows you to view and upload new images for the video to Brightcove. This is actually quite useful. The API doesn't query for as many image types as you can create but what I could get I do.
On to the Playlist Library. Here you'll find the same as on the Video Library. You can update just the playlists and there are a few options. Similiarly to the Video Library Tab there is also a control that is not visible that will allow you to create playlists. Again it's up to you to uncomment it but it does work I just don't provide it by default.
On the playlist item itself I've provided a form for you to update the fields and like the equivalent on the Video Tab you should do updates to your playlists through this interface because it updates both Brightcove and Sitecore. You can also update and delete the playlist from this tab. You will have to reload the children on the parent node once you do this so the tree is updated for you or you'll get null exceptions. (fun times).
The playlist also has the ability to add a thumbnail image. I don't know why but you can so I built it.
Again as I noted the API doesn't support querying for players so you have to create them yourself. Just right-click on the Video Player Library item and insert a Brightcove Video Player.
Once you create it you'll need to fill out a few fields. You'll need to fill out the Name, Player ID, Playlist Type, the Height and Width. The description does nothing and is just there for you to keep track. Another thing to note is that you can set the Height and Width to whatever you want. So you can create two player items that point to the same Player ID and have different dimensions. Just consider it. So once you populate the fields click save.
Now jump over to the Video Preview Tab and you'll be able to choose, from a drop down, the videos you've got in Sitecore. You can also select some other options and preview it on the tab itself. This good if you just want to test a few things out before you go banging video items into your content fields.
Here's a final note on the media library: you can create folders. If you've used Brightcove for any length of time you'll notice that you just have one giant list of videos. You can search but at times you just want to be able to sort the enormous volume of videos you've accumulated. I provided folders so that at least in Sitecore you can do just that. It won't affect when you update and you can add security to the folders. All new videos/playlists added to the system will show up in the root and if you enforce strict permissions someone will have to move new videos to their respective locations. I didn't use that much but if you do need it it's there.
Okay so you've installed and setup all your content and now you're ready to start adding things to your pages go to a Rich Text Field that is either has an HTML Profile with Full access which I explained earlier.
Once you open the editor you'll see two buttons: Embed Video and Insert Video Link.
When you click on these you'll be given a dialog window. Here you can set a number of settings that will determine how the video will display.
You should at least start by selecting a player.
What you choose next will depend on the type of player you have. You can select either a video...
or you can select a playlist or multiple playlists.
Some player types will need to have playlists selected (tabbed, combo, single list). Some will need to have only a video selected (single video). If you line up the wrong choice, when you select the "Link" button you will get a warning telling you that the video player doesn't support what you tried to do.
Now assuming you selected the right type and didn't get a warning you'll see what is known as a web control in the wysiwyg editor. Better detail of this is give by a man named John West. Embed and object tags get stripped but storing the data in what essentially is a server control tag is the best way to get the wysiwyg editor to play nice. If you inspect the html you'll see the tag is a custom server control in the BrightcoveSDK.SitecoreUtil library. There is a pipeline event that will cause this to be rendered at runtime. It is selectable and if it is selected when you hit the embed button it will pre-load the settings. You can also double-click on it and change the values as key-value pairs. The link is created using the settings from /system/modules. This is where it determines what site you're on and which settings to use. If you are running a multisite installation, this does use the current url hostname which relies on the user being logged into the specific domain which he is working on. I believe this is preferred behavior so it shouldn't be a problem but it could given there are a lot of custom variations of Sitecore out there.
This is the markup you'll see when you inspect the source. You'll see the server control and the anchor tag that are populated with the data from the dialog window. I'm also storing all Brightcove ID's instead of Sitecore ID's and this is to prevent content pointing to an ID in one environment from failing when it's package and installed on another environment. Notice that the url for the anchor tag is a handler url. This is because there is no formal file or location. I'm just catching the variables and displaying embed code within the window you've called from. The javascript window should be using an IFrame or something like it to load the page.
When you view the page this is what you'll see.
When you click on the link, here I'm using prettyPhoto, you'll see the popup window that will render the video. I would've setup a link from the wysiwyg I'm using but Sitecore Express on a hosted environment is fighting me right now so I took a screenshot instead.
So that's about it. Where do I go next you might ask. It has been suggested that I should make a custom field type or forgo the media library altogether and use a DataProvider or pull from Brightcove directly. I might do that eventually, unfortunately I don't have a need for it yet so it's not likely to happen soon. If you end up using this or thinking of some aspects that could improve it, please let me know in the comments. I'd like to hear how it gets used. If you do use it and have issues please use the issue tracker at Sukiyoshi. It's just easier for me to have it all it one place.

Hi, I just downloaded the 6.5 version and I can't see any delete option, is it still there ?
Thank you
March 07, 2012
I think you may be having the same issues as the previous commenter. My recommendation is to pull from the trunk of Sukiyoshi. The code and package are updated for Sitecore 6.4 and up.

hi, when I click on the account folder that I have then click "Update Library" I am getting null error System.NullReferenceException

do you know why? thanks
December 15, 2011
Ok so that brings up a good point. There were some big javascript changes in the Sitecore 6.4 release. This is why you're getting these errors. The latest branch or what will become the 2nd release, supports Sitecore 6.4 and later. If you're comfortable pulling from the trunk, the code and package are what you're looking for.
December 13, 2011
Hi Mark,
First of all, awesome stuff you got here, kudos. Quick question though, I seem to get the javascript error "Object doesn't support this property or method" when it goes to the var args = editor.GetDialogParameters(commandName); whenever I click the embed/insert video button. Am running on Sitecore 6.5 btw. I followed all the steps you mentioned above. Did I miss something out?
September 26, 2011
Good question which brings up a point about the Brightcove players that is commonly overlooked. There isn't anything wrong with your code. There are several types of players but they fall into two categories. Players that support playlists and players that don't. The players that support playlists have a list on it's side or below it or even several playlists in tabs. The players that don't support the playlists won't play anything if you set a playlist to them. They'll only support a video id. You may need to create another player that will support a playlist and use that.
September 13, 2011
Thanks Mark this has helped out a lot i had to modify it to get it working with 6.4 as it no longer contains the Telerik Modal window (i'll post some code updates once i get some spare time). But i currently have an issue that the videos play on the preview screen but the playlists don't is there anything special i need to do within the brightcove administration to get this working. NOTE: i'm using the same player with no playlists assigned.
Thanks for the help again.
September 08, 2011
Yes originally it was. I had built Sukiyoshi off of the Tanaris code and was subsequently required to use the license on that. I have been able to reach out to the owner of Tanaris and he was willing to change the license to the MIT license so you are now able to use the code without having to open source your own project.
August 25, 2011
This seems great. What is the license on all of this code? I'd love to incorporate this into my work, but it looks like sukiyoshi is licensed GPL v3, which would require me to open source my stuff, which I can't do.
August 25, 2011
Good question. Brightcove does set a limit for their file upload API at 2 GB. Although keep in mind that if you are using this custom integration, I have not built the uploader in flash so you will not know the progress of the upload. For this reason I recommend that you don't upload anything larger than 3-4MB which will upload fairly quickly. You can always build something in flash that will manage the upload so it can tell you whether or not the upload failed, if the connection was lost or even if it's just going to take a very long time.
I didn't end up building the interface only becuase I'm only a hack flash developer but the Brightcove management console has an excellent file upload management console so typically I use that instead. I was really just showing off that it could be done although not making it as robust as it could be.

Published: September 13, 2013 - 04:31 PM | Updated: September 14, 2013 - 10:28 AM
BEREA: Browns center Alex Mack wouldn't specify whether he's open to letting his agent negotiate a contract extension during this season, but he made it clear he doesn't want any such business to distract him from football.
"[Keeping] you guys from asking too many questions would be a good way to limit distractions," Mack said with a smile Friday after practice. "Really just playing football [is my priority]. The team wins and I win if I play at my best level. So that's my goal."
Mack knows he must be at the top of his game Sunday when the Browns (0-1) visit the Baltimore Ravens (0-1). He'll face four-time Pro Bowl nose tackle Haloti Ngata, one of the best defensive players in the AFC North and the entire NFL.
"Haloti's a really good player," Mack said. "He's real big and he moves well, which is a very bad combo for offensive linemen. He's real powerful. He takes up a lot of space. He's a special player."
Mack isn't too shabby himself. He made the Pro Bowl in 2010, and last year Ngata called Mack the best center in the division.
Mack's rookie contract is scheduled to expire in March, and Jason La Canfora of CBS, citing an unnamed source, reported Sunday that Mack is not open to negotiating a new deal during this season. Some players avoid negotiations during the season to prevent distractions.
"I'm really focused on playing ball," Mack said. "I can't really do anything to control any of that. As long as I play well, everything will work out. That's really what an agent's for."
When asked if he's open to his agent, Marvin Demoff, negotiating with the organization during the season, Mack said, "I'm letting him handle that, and I'm worried about football."
The 6-foot-4, 310-pound Mack sounded as if he wants to continue his career in Cleveland beyond this season.
"I like it here," Mack said. "I like the people I'm with, I like my coaches and I'm happy as a Brown."
In July, Browns General Manager Mike Lombardi said Mack fits the profile of a player the organization wants to sign to a contract extension. Mack, 27, has started all 64 games for the Browns since they drafted him in the first round (21st overall) in 2009.
"I think Alex certainly has proven that he's a good player on and off the field," Lombardi said. "I think he stands for that, and I think he has the ability to continue to play well. So he certainly fits the profile."
Mack and his fellow offensive linemen are aiming to rebound from a rough showing in a 23-10, season-opening loss to the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins harassed Brandon Weeden for the vast majority of the game and tallied 16 quarterback hits, including six sacks.
"We're tightening up some protection issues," Mack said. "We're just working hard, working on our technique. Also scheme-wise, [we'll] try to mix it up a little bit more, keep the defense on the back of their heels."
Seeking improvement
Wide receiver Greg Little dropped two passes against the Dolphins, including one that was intercepted after it deflected off his hands. The pass was thrown high and hard, but Little knows he must be reliable.
"I've just got to make the plays that are there for me," Little said. "If I make those plays, we're able to stay on the field longer."
With Josh Gordon on the verge of serving the final game of his two-game suspension for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy, Little and the rest of the receiving corps know they must step up and provide Weeden with more support.
"That's always our thing whether it's a bad ball, fast ball, wherever the ball is, it's ours," Little said. "We don't particularly care where it is. It's in the air, and it's our chance to either go knock it down or make a play on it. And Brandon handles it well. He understands the pressures of being a quarterback. They're the highest-paid guys in the league."
Little said he has talked to Weeden this week to reinforce the idea he wants to help him on the field.
"He knows how I feel about being open and wanting the ball and that sort of thing," Little said. "But it's good. Me and Brandon are on the same page. It's great."
Little said the receivers and quarterbacks watched film together this week to fix some of the issues they had against the Dolphins.
"I spent a lot more time watching film," Little said. "So I'm not so uncertain about looks from the defense, and I think I spent a lot more time watching film with Brandon and the quarterbacks. I think that's going to help us more. Usually we watch [film] as receivers, quarterbacks, but we watched them together and kind of get what they're thinking and that way we'll all be on the same page."
The Browns converted only 1-of-14 third downs against the Dolphins, but Little is confident they'll be able to bounce back.
"That's obviously the glaring stat of the game," Little said. "And I think once we improve there, a lot more will carry right behind that.
"I just think once we start, then it will just be no stopping us. I just think once we get the snowball rolling, we'll be fine."
Browns coach Rob Chudzinski ruled out right guard Shawn Lauvao (high ankle sprain) for Sunday, meaning Oniel Cousins will start in his place for the second consecutive game.
Cousins committed four penalties against the Dolphins, including a holding call that wiped out tight end Gary Barnidge's 20-yard touchdown catch late in the fourth quarter. According to ProFootballFocus.com, Cousins also allowed two sacks and three hurries.
Chudzinski trusts that Cousins will make good on his promise to perform better against the Ravens, his former team.
"He's worked extremely hard this week," Chudzinski said. "He's been the last guy coming off the field. I saw him in the weight room doing extra things and out here doing extra things on his day off. You can't ask for anything more. He's really working at it and wants to do well. I expect him to be better."
Meanwhile, left defensive end Ahtyba Rubin (calf) is listed as doubtful on the injury report. Like Lauvao, Rubin was sidelined Sunday and did not practice this week.
Billy Winn will start in Rubin's spot for the second consecutive game if the latter sits out against the Ravens, Chudzinski said. Winn played 37-of-77 defensive snaps despite dealing with calf cramps and finished with two tackles.
"Winn stepped up and was a starter," defensive coordinator Ray Horton said. "He provided an extra push up front."
Other injury updates
Strong safety T.J. Ward (shoulder) and wide receiver Travis Benjamin (thigh) are listed as questionable after suffering injuries against the Dolphins. Both of them sound as if they expect to play.
"I practiced this week, no contact, no pads and it felt good," Ward said. "I felt normal. I'm positive about it."
Benjamin doesn't think he'll be hindered at all.
"I've been returning punts and [taking reps as a] receiver with the ones and deep routes," Benjamin said. "I'm ready to go."
Rookie outside linebacker Barkevious Mingo (bruised lung) and cornerback Buster Skrine (shoulder) are probable. Chudzinski said Mingo will be available for action on both defense and special teams Sunday in his NFL regular-season debut, and the team has not set a snap limit for him.
Good to hear
Running back Trent Richardson had just 13 carries for 47 yards (3.6 average) to go along with two catches for 30 yards against the Dolphins. He stressed Thursday that he wants to be more involved.
"I love hearing that from any player, that they want the ball," Chudzinski said. "Trent is a big part of what we do. As you know, the games are all different. It depends on how things happen during the course of those games. What we want to do is be able to sustain some drives and convert on third downs and give a lot of guys opportunities."
Ravens reunion
Kicker Billy Cundiff played for the Ravens from 2009-11, and he is eager to face his former team.
"I'm excited to get back to playing there," Cundiff said. "I felt like I kicked extremely well in that stadium. I have some special memories playing for the Ravens, really enjoyed my time, felt like the city treated me well. I'm obviously excited to go back for that reason."

scary that there are people like this
Yup, and I've seen it happen with my mate.
My mate got done for drink driving and whilst he was in the police station, his mate that was in his car with him took his car and wrote it off.
That's slightly bad form! :O

[Interlude: Rudy Ray Moore]
"I wanna ask you one question: if I had some nuts, hanging on the wall, what did I have honey?"
I said, "Darling you'd have some walnuts"
She said, "Well, daddy if I had some nuts on my chest, would those be chestnuts?"

When it comes to buying a laptop,, consumers obsess over which model has the fastest processor, highest resolution and biggest screen. They do not often stop to think about the battery when the truth is that, without a battery, a laptop is little more than a desktop. Laptops are meant to be portable, which means they can work anywhere, even in areas where there is no electricity, by running off their battery.
Not all laptop batteries are made equally, and even if it is a manufacturer's battery, this alone does not mean that is the best battery for the job. Consumers are often faced with buying replacement batteries from the electronics store, or an online at website like eBay that often come with limited warranties and do not last long. Experienced consumers need to learn what to look for in a laptop battery and how to use them properly to extend their lifetime.
Battery Basics
A battery produces electricity due to a reaction inside its cells. The stronger the reaction, the more powerful the battery. Therefore, batteries are measured in watts, which takes into account volts and milliamperes (mAh), as well as how many cells it uses.
Battery Power
The power of a battery is measured in watt- hours, or how long it can last unplugged. Most manufacturers list their batteries by volts and milliamperes instead of watts, which can be slightly confusing. However, by multiplying volts and amperes together, consumers can quickly determine the power potential of the battery. Volts are merely a measurement of voltage, while milliamperes measures the current.
For example, a laptop battery is listed as using 14.4 volts and 42000 mAh . One thousand milliamperes equals one ampere, so in this case the battery has 4.2 amperes. By multiplying 14.4 and 4.2 together, this battery has a total of 60.5 watt hours.
Cell Power
A battery's cells are a measurement of how much capacity it has; in other words, how long the battery can run by itself without needing to be recharged. Laptop batteries run the gamut from as low as three cells , to as high as 12 cells . A six cell battery has 50 percent more capacity than a 3 cell battery that uses the same amount of watt hours. Pay attention to cell power along with watt hours since they are both measured to get an accurate comparison.
Consumers who are often on the road away from any electrical outlet need powerful batteries. Therefore, their best choice is to purchase one that has a high watt-hour rate along with large cell capacity. Keep in mind that some of the largest batteries do not fit with smaller laptops. Many road warriors go ahead and purchase a second battery that plugs into an expansion slot on the computer, doubling battery life. For some, this is a worthwhile expense, but for those who are not running their computer off of their battery all the time, simply having one should be enough.
Battery Types
Now that consumers understand how battery power is measured, it is time to take a moment to examine different battery types. Several new technologies have vastly improved upon laptop batteries, and modern models are quite different from those produced even ten years ago.
Full Name
Power Rating
Nickel Cadmium
Nickel Metal Hydride
Lithium Ion
Lithium Polymer
Out of these four types, the Ni-Cad battery is almost obsolete. The only reason a consumer would ever purchase a Ni-Cad battery, is if they are still using an older laptop that requires one. Laptops only work with specific batteries, so if one laptop requires a Ni-Cad, it always needs a Ni-Cad.
Ni-MH batteries are still being produced, but they are mainly found on older and less expensive laptops. They are heavier than the Lithium batteries, yet despite the extra weight they are not as powerful. Many electronic stores no longer sell Ni-MH batteries for laptops, which means a consumer needs to purchase them online from eBay.
Li-Ion batteries are king when it comes to laptops. They are lightweight, but since they also have the greatest electrochemical potential they are also quite powerful. They require little maintenance, and are more environmentally friendly than the Ni-Cad or Ni-MH batteries.
Li-Poly batteries are a more advanced version of the Li-Ion. While they are not as powerful as a Li-Ion battery, they are smaller. This makes them ideal for ultra-thin laptops where internal space is a luxury.
Disposing Batteries
It is worth taking a moment to note that all laptop batteries should be recycled. Some types, especially the Ni-Cad, are harmful for the environment and should never be thrown away. When an old battery is no longer working, take it to the local recycling centre. Many businesses also have laptop battery recycling programmes.
Manufacturer's Batteries
The importance of buying manufacturer batteries cannot be underestimated, especially when it comes to the warranty. Once upon a time, the only way to buy replaced batteries for a laptop was to purchase the specific replacement battery made for that particular model. This is changing in part due to how batteries are made. Today's laptop batteries, for example, may state the manufacturer's name on the outside, but open up the plastic cover, and sometimes it is a different story inside. Many manufacturers have outsourced their battery production, and so while the plastic cover is still made by the parent company, the battery is made by a different company.
The problem with outsourcing batteries is that some companies simply do not do a quality job of ensuring that their products live up to the manufacturer's standards. For example, it was once standard practise to get a battery with a one year warranty, because manufacturers made the batteries and they wanted to produce a high quality product in order to entire new customers. Many consumers are in for an unfortunate shock when their computer battery breaks down, and they call up the company for a replacement only to be told the battery had a mere three month warranty.
The best way to avoid this trap is to purchase batteries that come with a longer warranty. Think of a warranty as a guarantee that the product is good. On average, most laptop batteries last between one to two years, so try to find a warranty within that time frame. Third-party batteries that are not specifically made for any manufacturer tend to have the longest warranties, and are often less expensive than manufacturer-specific batteries.
Battery Accessories
For those who are heavily reliant on laptop batteries, there are several accessories available to help. As briefly mentioned above, purchasing a laptop that has the potential plug-in for an add-on battery is a must for anyone who is constantly on the road. This back-up battery combined with the main battery, provides up to 10 hours of power, long enough to get plenty of work done on flights. Another option is to purchase a battery plate that increases the size of the battery storage. Owners have to add on a few pounds to their laptop, but on the plus side they get hours of extra juice.
How to Buy Laptop Batteries on eBay
eBay is the place to go for all your electronic needs, and it is the ideal place to search for small electronic parts such as laptop batteries. The selection is astounding, and it is possible to find batteries for older laptops. Keep in mind, however, that while some sellers do offer used batteries, purchasing one is not always a good idea. Batteries tend to deteriorate quickly, so it is best to spend a little more money on a new model.
Do a search for 'laptop batteries'' in order to pull up a long list of results. At this point, the list is likely overwhelming, so you can opt to search in several different ways. If you are looking for a specific manufacturer battery, type in the model such as ' laptop battery for Dell Inspiron '. If you would rather shop by power, you can search by mAh, such as ' 4800 mAh laptop battery '. Play around with the different combination of search terms until you find the battery that suits your needs.
Laptop batteries do not last as long as laptops, and chances are that every owner must purchase a replacement battery or two for their laptop at some point. With these batteries being so expensive, it is important that consumers shop the right way in order to find the best laptop batteries for sale in stores, or online through eBay. The first feature to look for is the power of the battery.
The strongest models provide extra juice for longer periods of time, and they tend to last longer than weaker models. The second step is to ensure that the battery fits the type associated with the laptop, such as Li-Ion batteries for Li-Ion battery-powered laptops. The final step is to select a battery that comes with a good warranty of one year or longer, even if it is not made by the manufacturer of the computer. Combine all of these steps together, and buying a decent battery becomes a very simple task.

The U.S. House of Representatives voted to put $2 billion more into the Cash for Clunkers program and there is a good chance it will go on to become law.
The extension of the program has support in the U.S. Senate and the White House likes it too. The Senate will likely look at it next week.
Under the program, consumers can turn in their old cars for $3,500 and $4,500 vouchers toward the purchase of newer, cleaner cars. Ford says that consumers are gravitating more toward fuel sippers rather than trucks, according to Reuters, so that's a good sign. In the first part of the program, consumers turned in 250,000 cars. That first phase of the program cost $1 billion. Critics say it is a somewhat expensive subsidy program, but it's popular.
Much of the momentum for the program came from this article from Jack Hidary and Bracken Hendricks.
And it keeps individuals in car reclamation busy. Let's go tell Rollo.
