APC statement on World Wide Web Consortium move towards standardising digital rights management
, April 2017
Frank La Rue, Assistant Director-General for Communication and Information at UNESCO, has publicly expressed concern to the main international standards-setting body for the web, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), on the implementation of a technical change known as encrypted media extensions (EME). EME standardises a practice called digital rights management (DRM) and would lead to excessive information controls, as well as introducing security vulnerabilities at the application, or web browser, layer.
W3C is an international body that is narrowly focused on standards and protocol setting for the world wide web, whose official recommendations affect the content delivery layer of the internet through web browsers. W3C's most prominently stated value is openness, followed by interoperability and content neutrality. While W3C has a staff and an advisory board, its standardisation work is done through open and transparent democratic processes by technical experts from governments, the private sector, civil society and academia.
Since 2012, the HyperText Markup Language (HTML) Media Extensions Working Group of the W3C has been considering a new technical standard called the EME, which extends the existing functionality of HTML's media element to play encrypted content. There has been continuous resistance to the EME recommendation since its inception, in the form of petitions and protests, resignation of W3C staff and, in March 2016, an open letter against standardising insecure DRM signed by hundreds of security researchers.
As La Rue points out, there are two main issues introduced by EME that deeply affect and put at risk users' rights. The most important issue is that DRM diminishes the right to seek and receive information and directly challenges the W3C's commitment to an open web. Introducing a default, restrictive technical control of information at the application layer means that users are powerless to gain access to illegitimately restricted content with circumvention tools. This puts at risk fair use, as well as adaptation of content for localisation and accessibility. An additional consideration is that the proposed standard gives corporations control over how security researchers identify and publish security vulnerabilities. At worst, this provision makes independent vulnerability research a criminal offence. There is no perceived value added by this provision to the standard other than to further protect corporate intellectual property.
Despite the resistance from within W3C, Tim Berners-Lee, W3C director and founder of the World Wide Web, published a post in February 2017 saying that he supports the implementation of EME in HTML5. W3C also published a response to La Rue's letter, which essentially characterises the EME standard as an improvement on DRM and puts the responsibility of respecting freedom of expression and access to information on UNESCO and civil society, failing to acknowledge the implications of W3C's own work on these fundamental rights. There remains widespread confusion about if and when there will be a vote on this issue among working group members.
Influential corporations have stated that DRM protects their intellectual property and also keeps consumers safe from malicious, unauthorised content. And when that intellectual property is in the form of content, like a film or a song, they use various technical mechanisms termed digital rights management. Corporations have proposed that DRM become standardised in web browsers with a technical specification known as encrypted media extensions, despite the fact that it has already been shown that DRM stifles innovation and makes legitimate access to information difficult.
As with any open, multistakeholder decision-making body, W3C is not without occasional controversy. In the past, W3C has weighed the interest of users over corporations on issues such as patents and intellectual property. However, the argument has been made that the source of the current controversy, the adoption of EME, would fully accommodate corporate DRM and creates an unprecedented tension between supporting corporate rights and protecting user rights, with much for the latter to lose.
Concrete suggested actions for W3C working group members
APC believes protocols and standards play an integral role in protecting human rights. The internet is a decentralised network that empowers voices from the margins rather than the centre. Its technical standards and protocols reflect its values, as they allow it to operate in this decentralised and open manner. Furthermore, the process by which standards and protocols are set reflects democratic principles.
As UN Special Rapporteur on the right to freedom of opinion and expression David Kaye noted in his 2016 report to the UN Human Rights Council, technical standards have profound implications for freedom of expression. Specifically citing the role of the W3C in his report, he urged private actors to develop and implement policies that take into account their potential impact on human rights and to ensure the greatest possible transparency in their policies, standards and actions that implicate the freedom of expression and other fundamental rights.
We applaud W3C's history of approaching copyright and patents in ways that respect and empower users while balancing corporate influence and interests. We believe the best approach in the case of DRM is to draw from these past experiences and push back against corporate pressure and influence, to ensure that the fundamental right to freedom of expression, which includes the right to seek and receive information, is respected.
Indeed, the DRM system exists, but the role of a technical standards body such as W3C is to facilitate an open, interoperable and content-neutral web, guided by international human rights standards, in particular the principles of necessity and proportionality, when it comes to consideration of any standards that would limit access to content. Even as a private actor, W3C should assess the implications of its standards and policies to examine their possible implications for human rights, openness and accessibility.
It is critical to support the security research community with bug bounty programmes and other innovations that facilitate collective identification and mitigation of security vulnerabilities. Lastly, it is especially important when in the midst of intense controversy to remain committed to democratic decision making that is transparent and inclusive.

- Summary
- "Glaciogenic reservoirs and hydrocarbon systems occur intermittently throughout the stratigraphic record, with particular prominence in Neoproterozoic, Late Ordovician, Permo-Carboniferous and Late Cenozoic strata. Recent interest in glaciogenic successions has been fuelled by hydrocarbon discoveries in ancient glaciogenic reservoirs in North Africa, the Middle East, Australia and South America. Glaciogenic deposits of Pleistocene age are noteworthy for their content of groundwater onshore and potentially prospective and/or hazardous gas accumulations offshore. The abundant imprints of Pleistocene glaciations in both hemispheres can be used to reconstruct complex histories of repeated ice cover and retreat, and glacier-bed interactions, thus informing our view on the dynamics of older ice caps and predictions of future glaciations. This volume aims to provide a better understanding of glaciogenic processes, their stratigraphic record and reservoir characteristics of glaciogenic deposits. The book comprises 3 overview papers and 16 original case studies of Neoproterozoic to Pleistocene successions on 6 continents and will be of interest to sedimentologists, glaciologists, geophysicists, hydrologists and petroleum geologists alike."--Back cover.

I guess lawyer and Fox News Talk Show phenom Megyn Kelly is too busy flaunting it in Vanity Fair to actually read The Constitution…
Megyn got her ass knocked in the dirt by Ammon Bundy, as he stood on the ground of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.
Hat tip / Freedom Post:
She is obviously like most attorneys and has not studied constitutional law, which was clearly demonstrated when Kelly got the smack down on her own show..
A good question was asked by an ignorant Constitutionalist.
(I'm referring to Kelly)
"How is what you are doing not lawlessness?" she asked.
Check it out:
How long are we going to sing the praises of this second-rate model-turned "opinion" meister?

The last race of the year for university women is the National University Women's Invitational Ekiden, a relatively young event in Tsukuba, Ibaraki prefecture with six stages covering 30.67 km. Titan Ritsumeikan University has won every year the National Ekiden has been held. This year is the final time the team's star Kazue Kojima will wear the school's uniform in an ekiden, one last race to complete an undefeated stage record for her university career.
Earlier in the season Ritsumeikan looked unbeatable, running better than ever at October's Morinomiyako Ekiden, but they were easily beaten by rivals Bukkyo University, led by the talented Kasumi Nishihara. After placing 2nd by just 3 seconds at last year's Nationals Bukkyo looks set to break Ritsumeikan's stranglehold on the national title. Nishihara has been dealing with injuries throughout the fall and may not be in condition to challenge Kojima, but her team overall is strong, tough and ready.
There are of course more than these two schools in the National Ekiden, but realistically none stand a hope of challenging the two big ones up front. Last year's 3rd placer Meijo University is again the best hope for the 3rd position.
The National University Women's Invitational Ekiden will be broadcast on TV Tokyo at 4:00 p.m. on Dec. 27. Overseas viewers should be able to watch online for free using the Keyhole TV software available here.

The London 2012 Organising Committee (LOCOG) has announced its plans to recruit up to 70,000 volunteers or "Games Makers" for the London Games. It is expected to be the biggest volunteer recruitment campaign in the post-war period in the UK, and LOCOG will be looking for dedicated and inspirational people representative of the diversity of London and the UK to apply for a wide variety of volunteer positions. Olympic TOP partner McDonald's will be the presenting partner of the London volunteer programme and will use its expertise in customer service and training and its nationwide presence to help attract, select and train the diverse team that will be needed to make the 2012 Games a success.
Games Makers
Sebastian Coe, Chairman of LOCOG, said: "London 2012 needs brilliant volunteers to help us deliver a great Olympic and Paralympic Games. Our volunteers will be called Games Makers to reflect the important role they will play in staging the 2012 Games. The programme to find our Games Makers will launch on 27 July 2010 and I urge anyone who is interested to come to our website to find out everything they need to know about volunteering in 2012."
Different Roles
There are two different types of volunteer role: specialists in areas such as medical services, sport or press operations; and generalists, with roles ranging from spectator assistants, uniform distributors and ticket checking. In addition to the LOCOG volunteers, the Mayor of London will shortly announce plans for the recruitment of city volunteers to be stationed at key transport hubs, at visitor attractions, and on the streets of the capital to make sure all visitors to London get the best possible welcome during the Games.
London was elected as the Host City for the Games of the XXX Olympiad on 6 July 2005 at the 117th IOC Session in Singapore. London eventually succeeded in the fourth round of voting taking 54 votes from a possible 104. London faced stiff opposition during the vote from the other four candidate cities: Paris, New York, Moscow and Madrid. There will be 26 sports on the Olympic Programme in London in 2012 and around 10,500 athletes.

No substitute for hands-on
There is a huge variety of promotional marketing methods at the disposal of big brands, but there's no substitute for experiential or 'hands-on' - letting your customers handle and try out new products.
But handing out samples at railway stations won't cut it anymore, she adds. Consumers need to be aware of all aspects of the product - via creative, innovative event marketing campaigns that engage and excite them.
Chahai was talking principally about consumer goods, anything from tea bags to Nintendo Wii. But as EMS Managing Director Keith Austin points out, hands-on event marketing works supremely well for business to business too - as a succession of EMS-led roadshow exhibitions campaigns has proved.
"Going out on the road and taking their experiential campaign to where customers work has been a hugely successful tactic for big brands working with EMS," he says. "Using our bespoke, roadshow vehicles equipped with state-of-the-
Austin adds: "Just days into the New Year, EMS is already working with a number of new customers who recognise the clear advantages of this type of face-to-face engagement."

Chapter Thirty-FourMature
'So what have we got?' I asked as I sifted through the paperwork scattered across the huge table in the corner of Abril's pub. 'I can't make head nor tail of this lot, it's not in any order, I can't find any names-'
'Alright then, stop complaining,' Demitri said exasperatedly. 'I'll explain it.' He dropped the pile of paper he was holding and turned to me. ''The Twelve Zodiacs' was last on our radar approximately thirty years ago when they tried to stop the chosen one from taking her rightful place as the leader of the magical world.'
'I'm sorry,' I interrupted. 'Leader of the magical world? Is that what I am?'
'Not yet but you will be. I've already explained all this.'
'Obviously not clearly enough,' I mumbled as I rolled my eyes and began stacking paper.
'Anyway,' Demitri said, 'they didn't succeed because before she died, Mimi Jackson killed the leader of their group, a man called Isaac Jones, also known as 'The Dragon'.'
'But he can't be 'The Dragon'. The man Clay referred to was called 'The Dragon', so either Mimi didn't kill that man thirty years ago or someone is going around pretending to be him.'
'He can be 'The Dragon',' Demitri said in his all-knowing voice, pulling out a sheet of paper with a diagram on it. ''The Twelve Zodiacs' have a hierarchy system and when one person dies or is killed, another takes their place.' Spinning the paper around to show me, he pointed at the names at the top of the paper. 'The higher members of the group are given special code names, a sign of superiority. The leader of the group is given the title 'The Dragon'.'
'So there are only twelve active members of this group? How does that work?'
'No. There are other members of the group but they aren't given the privilege of a code name, they're just the foot soldiers, it's the people with the names that organise everything.'
'OK then,' I said, pausing for my brain to catch up with me, 'so how does the system work? Is it a council or...?'
'OK so 'The Dragon' is in charge, nothing happens without his say so. He has two right-hand men, usually 'The Tiger' and 'The Snake' but some leaders have been known to give their second-in-command different names. These two are 'The Dragon's' eyes and ears, they tell him everything that is going on in the group.
'Below them you have 'The Monkey', 'The Horse', 'The Dog' and 'The Rat'. They are the ones who make sure orders are carried out, letting 'The Dragon's' aides know what is going on so they can report back.
''The Ox', 'The Rabbit', 'The Goat, 'The Rooster' and 'The Pig' hold the lowest positions. They organise the troops and carry out some of the more senior solo missions.'
'So if it were a school,' I thought out loud.
'But it's not a school.'
'I know it's not a school, I just need to put it in a way my brain can process it. So if 'The Twelve Zodiacs' was a school, 'The Dragon' would be the head teacher, 'The Snake' and 'The Tiger' would be the deputy heads, then the next lot would be the teaching staff and the bottom row would be the prefects.'
'Sounds about right. Except their jobs are totally different.'
'Well I'm hoping schools aren't planning on attacking us or we might be dead before the week is over.' It was clear as soon as the words came out of my mouth that Demitri didn't get my warped sense of humour. In fact, he was just looking very confused. 'Don't worry,' I sighed, bowing my head back over the table.
'Any progress?' Abril marched over to the table, two mugs of tea in her hands.
'Nothing really,' Demitri confessed, 'I'm just trying to get to grips with how this organisation works. I've almost completely forgotten most of what I knew.'
'Well I think we need to form a plan of action,' I said, taking control of the situation. 'Sitting around here looking at old records is doing us no good, we need to get moving, do some investigating.'
'And how do you propose we do that?' Abril asked, an annoyed tinge to her voice. 'We've got nothing to go on.'
'We have Clay Marshall.'
'We can't trust what he told us,' Abril said immediately, dismissing my idea. 'We don't even know if that's his real name. He probably just gave us the first name that came into his head so we'd leave him alone for long enough so he could escape.'
'Then what do you suggest?' I crossed my arms tightly across my chest and looked down my nose as much as I could at Abril. 'Because I don't see how looking at names of people who are dead is going to help us.' There was a long pause as Abril fought in her head to think of some other suggestion to give me.
'Fine,' she conceded. 'You can waste your time trying to find Clay Marshall but I can say with almost a hundred percent certainty that you will not be able to find him.'

A little over a year ago the Oklahoma State Cowboys went back in time on a quaint road trip to the upper central area of Michigan. The farming community of Clare, Michigan was the Cowboys home on Wednesday night for the Thursday season opener. None of the Oklahoma State travel party stayed in the older section of the Doherty Hotel, which has been documented as being haunted by past victims of Detroit gangsters that would often use the Doherty as a haven away from law enforcement in Detroit. Yes, the Michigan mob used the Cowboys road headquarters back in the roaring 1920s and the '30s, even later.
Ironically, across the street from the Doherty is a very famous doughnut bakery and coffee shop called Cops and Doughnuts. It was a favorite stop of the local and state police in the area and when the owner decided to retire he was going to close the business. The cops liked it so well that a group of them bought it and kept it open.
The day of the game the folks down the road in Mount Pleasant, Mich., where Central Michigan is located, were very hospitable to the Oklahoma State fans that made the trip. So on Saturday, if you see any Chippewa fans wandering around outside Boone Pickens Stadium ask them to your tailgate, feed them some good old fashioned Cowboy barbecue or a thick and juicy hamburger, maybe a smoked sausage.
Make a friend because at 11 a.m. the Cowboys won't be so accommodating to the CMU team. The Cowboys remember how good the Chippewas are and they will not take the defending MAC Western Division champions lightly.
It's time for week two of key matchups and predictions for the Central Michigan at Oklahoma State game.
OSU Middle Linebacker #45 Chad Whitener
vs. CMU Quarterback #10 Cooper Rush
Whitener has become quite the student of the game and he prides himself on studying and knowing what the quarterback is going to do before the quarterback himself knows. Rush will be a premier challenge as the senior starter is working in his 38th game at quarterback for the Chippewas and last season he seemed to pick a lot of right decisions against the Cowboys. One major mistake on the Cowboys part was the defensive ends, Emmanuel Ogbah and Jimmy Bean, were so keyed up to get sacks that they were taking shortcuts and leaving the outside wide open and Rush used it for several key runs including a huge first down in the first half and a go-ahead touchdown scramble in the second half. Rush is stronger and has more zip on his throws. He won't have the outside to use and he is likley to feel some pressure. Chad Whitener will try to get everybody on the back in the right place to take advantage of the expected heat from the defensive line.
My Call: Rush will make some plays, but the Cowboys on defense will make more.
OSU Slot Receiver #1 Jalen McCleskey
vs. CMU safety #4 Winslow Chapman
It makes all the sense in the world that Central Michigan defensive coordinator Greg Colby will shade his coverage toward Oklahoma State's All-American candidate wide receiver James Washington. That will likely happen a lot this season, at least until the Cowboys show enough fire power at the other positions to make the defenders play honest. McCleskey has the ability to do that and possibly even draw a little extra attention himself. He's fast, he's smart, and he knows how to find holes in the defense. The Chippewas run more coverage than the Republican Party had candidates in the primaries. McCleskey knows them all and watch him slip into some seams and make some big plays on Saturday morning and afternoon. He is one of my picks as one of the best weapons for the Cowboys this season. Chapman likely draws the coverage assignment as he looks to be a little quicker than the very physical Tony Annese. Chapman better be really fast.
My Call: McCleskey is sitting on ready to have a big day and a big season.
OSU Defensive Tackle #96 Vincent Taylor
vs. CMU Center #79 Austin Doan
Doan may end up thinking that Vincent Taylor has a twin, but that's just the defensive depth the Cowboys have this season at defensive tackle. Doan is a returning starter at guard who moved into the center position. He is the best offensive lineman on the CMU line and he will draw Taylor to start, a big load. Last week the Presbyterian Blue Hose were able to sack quarterback Cooper Rush four times and most of those attacks came up the middle. Taylor will tie up Doan and the Cowboys should be able to use stunts, blitzes, and conventional rush to have some success. Then again, after a few rotations, Doan may have trouble tying up Taylor. I'm predicting a sack or two for Taylor on Saturday.
My Call: Taylor and the rest of the Oklahoma State defense is glad to get back to defending a more familiar style of offense.
Oklahoma State-Central Michigna Prediction
This is mostly the same Central Michigan team from last season that made it tough on the Cowboys in the opener. The Chips led in the fourth quarter and OSU survived with a 24-13 win in Michigan. It could happen again, but I don't think so and here is why. Oklahoma State comes into this meeting with eyes wide open as far as how good the Chippewas can play. This time around Oklahoma State is more experienced and I predict they will play a smarter game on both sides. I also believe that while Central Michigan will have a good plan and play smart as well, but the Cowboys have a significant edge in speed and athletic ability and it will show up on the floor of Boone Pickens Stadium.
This Oklahoma State team is giving off a feeling of confidence, which can be dangerous. It is not an overconfidence, but a feeling that the team knows what they are capable of, knows how to achieve it, and better yet knows it only comes with hard work and good habits. It goes back to last summer when no news was good news as this team stayed away from off-the-field distractions.
The Chippewas had their best chance last season at home. It won't be in the cards for them on Saturday. Speed, athletic ability and confidence will rule the day.

Big 12 Predictions
Record: Last Week and the Year, SU 7-3, ATS 2-2

Scene 41Mature
The scene opens to Amalthea standing in the building that Daedalus and Aristaeus were in the past Act/Scene, looking around warily.
A few women come up to Amalthea.
WOMAN 1: Congratulations.
AMALTHEA, turning distractedly: Hmm?
WOMAN 1: On your marriage.
AMALTHEA: Oh. Pause. Thanks.
WOMAN 2: Are you ready to spend the rest of your life with someone?
AMALTHEA, staring at the woman, emotionless: I...I suppose.
WOMAN 2: Well, that's good.
The women walk away, leaving Amalthea alone. Amalthea walks to a nearby seat and sits, closing her eyes in frustration. After a few seconds, she stands up, unable to bear the anxiety of getting married to Daedalus. Angered, she grabs a knife off one of the dinner tables and rushes outside.
Medomai enters the room, glancing around. He has a highly analytical expression and a stiff walk as he goes further inside. He turns to the nearest person, who happens to be Daedalus.
MEDOMAI: Do you know where Amalthea is?
DAEDALUS: Of course. She's right over there. He gestures vaguely to a side of the room, then looks in the direction to see if he's correct. Amalthea is nowhere to be seen. Or not.
MEDOMAI: Do you know where she could be?
DAEDALUS: I think she's out for a walk.
MEDOMAI, with a frustrated expression: Alright, I'll go look around.
DAEDALUS: If you find her, could you bring her inside? I need to talk to her.
MEDOMAI, after a pause: Of course.
Aristaeus doesn't notice Medomai, so he isn't confused about how he's "come back to life."
Medomai turns quickly, rushing outside to find Amalthea kneeling by the door, knife in hand.

A free, opensource service that allows you to store arbitrary data trough simple HTTP requests.
To provide a storage that:
For example, you could backup or synchronize mobile phone data, by storing an encrypted file that would contain your app configuration. It was originally designed for Hpass. If you do cool things with it, throw an email to .
You can use this service free of charge, no registration needed. Upload is limited to 64KiB, and requests are limited to one per second. If your data is not read nor written for more than 30 day, it is automatically deleted.
To store data, just post it. The service returns a retrieval key (key) and an admin key (admin_key)
$ curl -s -X POST -d "data=hello" https://minibackup.chmd.fr
To get your content back, use a get request and provide the retrieval key.
$ curl -s -X GET "https://minibackup.chmd.fr?key=3af55e44bdca6a59"
To modify your data, use a put request, and provide the admin key, the retrieval key, and the new data.
$ curl -s -X PUT -d "data=bye" -d "key=3af55e44bdca6a59" \
-d "admin_key=4c3109699176234da8a1d5b761a5df1ca2025955" \
{"message":"Resource updated","status":200}
To delete your data, use a delete request, and provide the admin key and the retrieval key.
$ curl -s -X DELETE -d "key=3af55e44bdca6a59" \
-d "admin_key=4c3109699176234da8a1d5b761a5df1ca2025955" \
{"message":"Resource deleted","status":200}
To update or delete your data, you can also use time-based tokens. They are easy to generate, and can be transmitted over plain HTTP without compromising the admin key.
A token is the hmac of the current time rounded to 30 seconds concatenated to your message and the admin key. The following bash function does it all for you:
function sign_request() {
# compute the current time rounded to 30s
t=$(date +%s)
echo -n "$timestamp":"$message" |\
openssl dgst -sha1 -hmac $admin_key -binary |\
xxd -p
Let us test that. First, we post 'foo' to the service:
$ curl -s -X POST -d "data=foo" https://minibackup.chmd.fr
We want to update this data to 'bar'. To do so, we compute the appropriate token and we immediately inject it in our request. Keep in mind that to avoid replay, tokens are only valid for 1 minute, so you have to be quick!
$ sign_request "612d0b6445f3f992:bar" "2c6784cdba9dfe6daf278ddd7d11a358d723524d"
% curl -s -X PUT -d "data=bar" -d "key=612d0b6445f3f992" \
-d "token=8cc4c911c30400cd51dacc3fe986a73e0a39a24f" \
{"message":"Resource updated","status":200}
This also works for deletion:
$ sign_request "612d0b6445f3f992" "2c6784cdba9dfe6daf278ddd7d11a358d723524d"
$ curl -s -X DELETE -d "key=612d0b6445f3f992" \
-d "token=ad2c418586b8091be82937b7c610708f6a685ef4" \
{"message":"Resource deleted","status":200}
Comments about tokens and admin keys:
date --date="$(curl -s -I https://minibackup.chmd.fr | grep Date | sed 's/^Date: //g')" +%s
You are encouraged to encrypt your data before uploading it to minibackup. The goal is to help you host data, not to spy you! To do so, you can, for example, use openssl. Assuming your data is in
file.txt, encrypting can be done like this:
$ openssl aes-256-cbc -base64 -in file.txt -out file.txt.enc
You can then put the content of file.txt.enc on minibackup, and your data is secure. To decrypt it:
$ openssl aes-256-cbc -d -base64 -in file.txt.enc -out decrypted.txt

No database is required, only a recent version of php.
Officially, you can't. I do not guarantee anything, and I shall not be held responsible for any loss nor any leak on your data. And I might stop the service without notice.
Unofficially, minibackup.chmd.fr will run as long as there is no legal nor technical problems, and all precautions will be taken to keep it safe.

Half-term was survived - in my house by the trading of hours. This is how it works: My husband and I "do diaries". We write down each other's immovable work dates and then make our individual claims on whatever's left, sometimes months in advance (no high-yield multi-national does more forward planning than this ordinary-sized family). And here's where the trading comes in: I'll swap you half an hour on Tuesday for half an hour on Thursday; you'll be away for four days so can you bank an afternoon of childcare?, etc. The working world deals in days and hours; we trade in much finer units of time - parental time. Perhaps we need a new word for it: pimes. The first law of pimes is that demand exceeds supply, eternally.
So when I heard that the TUC had deemed yesterday Work Your Proper Hours Day, I let out a kind of strangulated harrumph. Proper hours: what, for a parent, might these be, pray? Of course, wanting workers to have proper meal-breaks and no unpaid overtime is good. But for parents in paid work, especially if they're single or doing more than one job, the concept is well-nigh meaningless.
In a speech last year on "shift parenting", Harriet Harman mentioned a couple who meet in a car park to hand over their baby as one parent leaves for work and the other returns. Most parents with a partner who shares childcare will have remembered times when they, too, hurriedly passed baby between them like so much contraband. But then Harman went and advocated more "flexibility" in working hours.
Personally I've had it up to here with flexibility - I'm flexed out. Touted as a panacea, flexible hours can end up exacerbating the very problem they're designed to solve (especially if they're not accompanied by equally flexible, cheap childcare). They're often just a euphemism for too many, whereas most people want fewer
Read the sobering report on the impact of unsocial working hours on family life published last year by the Relationships Foundation, a think-tank promoting healthy relationships. Based on two studies by the National Centre for Social Research, it found that today only 17% of working families with dependent children work the conventional Monday to Friday, nine-to-five week. Three out of four working parents do some weekend work. Shift-parenting has particular consequences at the weekends: when one parent works on Saturday, the other on Sunday, family time all but disappears. Those who rail against divorce and blame family breakdown for everything should take a peek at what current work patterns are doing to family life.
The Relationships Foundation spells it out. Mothers who work unsocial hours spend significantly less time eating with their children. Fathers who work on Sundays spend less time playing, reading with and teaching their children. Fourteen to 18-year-olds whose parents work on Saturday do less homework.
Those most likely to suffer from the effects of unsocial working are families that are already socially disadvantaged, although middle-class parents with high mortgage repayments are now working so many hours that inevitably more of these are unsocial too. Nor is it only kids who are deprived. Parents suffer from the lack of unbounded time with their children; of time to shop, to cook, and to enjoy that increasingly rare activity - rest.
The Relationships Foundation's Keep time for children campaign promotes the importance of family time, particularly at weekends. Parents of school-age children, they argue, should be protected by law from having to work a whole weekend, and given the right to ask not to work at certain times.
When I read last week that Tony Blair wants to cut waiting-lists by getting surgeons to operate at night, my first thought, I admit, was not of Mr Smith's painful hip, or Mrs Jones's dicky heart, but of a parent-surgeon under pressure to work when their family isn't. As for my household, somehow extra pimes have been found and we're spending the whole weekend together. We're so out of practice that I hope we survive it.

Costume Information
|Time Taken :
|This was kind of an accidental cosplay. I was meant to be cosplaying proper Matt, but my wig never came. I ordered it and the people basically said that they had no more in stock - but didn't email me until a week before expo. I already had all the costume, thus, Fem!Matt was created.
It wasn't the most interesting cosplay to do, because I prefer having fun characters that I can act out, and Matt doesn't really have a very hyper/outgoing kind of character to play along with.
I organised the Death Note meet that expo too on the Sunday, which was so much fun and I made a bunch of friends there that I still talk to and meet at each expo.
To-Do List
|Buy wig for use as 'normal' Matt.

Thousands of Australian travellers face an anxious and potentially costly wait to find out whether a British Airways strike will ruin their Christmas plans.
A last-ditch bid by the airline to halt a 12-day strike by the union representing BA cabin crew will be heard in London about 1am tomorrow, Australian time.
Do you know more? Text 0424 SMS SMH (+61 424 767 764), email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or direct message on Twitter @smh_news
Passengers who booked months in advance to fly BA to Britain via Asia between December 22 and January 2 can only hope BA will either head off the strike or be able to find them a seat on another airline.
Their other option is to change their flights now, potentially incurring extra costs but acting in the knowledge fares will continue to rise and seats will continue to diminish the longer they wait.
"It's a really difficult one for people at the moment because there's not a lot of definitive information in the market," Flight Centre spokesman Haydn Long said.
"If the [BA flights] had been cancelled, people would be able to make alternative plans.
"But BA hasn't actually cancelled [them] yet and they've been talking about contingency plans and an alternative schedule but they haven't released the schedule yet.
"So we don't really know what the implications are at this time."
Mr Long said a return fare between Sydney and London at this time of year would cost upwards of $2500 based on Flight Centre's current stock.
"There may be some cheaper examples, but they will not be available in large numbers," he said.
BA says it will contact affected customers directly when the outcome of tonight's hearing is determined.
Update your details on the BA website.
Qantas has already acted under the assumption the strike will go ahead.
All passengers booked on "codeshare" flights - Qantas tickets flying on BA aircraft - will be accommodated on existing Qantas services, a spokeswoman said.
But the airline is less certain about the fate of travellers booked on connecting BA flights out of Britain and into Europe, for example.
"Qantas will provide alternative options, where possible, for [those] customers," the airline said in a statement.
"These will include allowing changes to bookings without penalty and, on some routes, opportunities to travel on other carriers.
"Some flexibility may be needed regarding changes to travel dates and times."
If Qantas is not able to transfer travellers the airline would issue a travel waiver, involving either a fare refund or transfer, the spokeswoman said.
The airline was today contacting those travellers on connecting flights, a spokeswoman said.
Qantas was not at this stage considering putting on extra flights to accommodate regular BA passengers left without seats should the strike proceed, she said.
The Christmas season is the busiest travel time of the year between Britain and Australia.
Last December, 100,800 travellers came to Australia from Britain and in January a further 59,200 arrived. Going to London, 41,300 travellers left Australia last December and another 18,100 in January.
A Flight Centre travel agent, who asked not to be named, said if the flights were cancelled BA would either change customers on to flights outside the strike period at no extra charge or try to place them with other airlines.
The company, which has about 500 passengers booked to fly BA during the strike period, was not being inundated with calls, Mr Long said.
"I think people are sitting back a little bit to see if anything's going to happen," Mr Long said.
For those passengers who chose to act now and re-book their flights, price rises would be an issue.
"If you've booked months ago you may have got your fare for a couple of hundred dollars cheaper than what the fare will be available for at a later time," Mr Long said.
"But if you've booked with BA in that period and absolutely have to [arrive on a particular date] you may want to consider alternative arrangements."

A new store opens up in town and offers amazing birthday parties for the kids of Sleepy Hollow. Harry Moon discovers that the store's owner is none other than the dark, evil Mayor Kligore and he is hatching a nasty plan to further his control over the town. Harry needs to find a way to stop the Mayor's evil schemes and the wild birthday party craze before Sleepy Hollow becomes the greediest place on earth.
Honey Moon comes face-to-face with Clarice Kligore and her Royal Shades she knows something must be done to keep this mean club from taking over Sleepy Hollow Elementary.
Welcome to The Enchanting World of Honey Moon and her life in Sleepy Hollow, Massachusetts? Honey sets out to beat them at their own game, forming her own club, The Queen Bees. Instead of chasing the Shades off the playground for good, Honey learns that being the Queen Bee is more about the honey than the sting.
When Honey Moon wins a national essay contest in technology, the whole Moon family is treated to a dream weekend in the ultimate, fully loaded, smart house designed by Marvel Modbot, the Walt Disney of the 21st century. It's an incredible blast - driverless cars and a virtual reality world. That is, until an evil spirit invades COS (Central Operating System) of the smart house, turning that dream tech weekend into an operating nightmare. The Moons look to Harry (and Rabbit) to stop the evil.
Bella, Clarice Kligore's cousin arrives in Sleepy Hollow for a visit. Mysteriously Bella and Clarice appear to be identical, just like twins. Who would have guessed that her Clarice's cousin is also her doppelganger? None of the girls can tell them apartnot even Honey Moon. Clarice wastes no time in using this to her bullying advantage and threatens to throw the Honey and her girlfriends into chaos!

Rendering of fullyfaired BMW G 310 R
Speculative rendering shows what TVSs fully faired version of BMWs naked G 310 R could look like
THIS is a rendering of what the TVS 'U69', essentially a fully faired version of the BMW G 310 R, could look like.
The image was created for Indian motoring site Rushlane.com. It is believed the new bike could be called the Apache RTR 310 and that it will unveiled at the Indian Auto Expo on February 3.
Although it's not the most polished rendering we've ever seen, there are clearly some influences from the S1000RR present, including the tank and tail unit, although the front end reminds us of more of a Honda Firestorm than a modern sportsbike.
TVS and BMW have a technology partnership that means the G 310 is being manufactured by TVS in India. Under the partnership, TVS has access to BMW's R&D. Until last week it was assumed that TVS would use the G 310 R platform to create a naked bikefor the Indian market but if rumours are to be believed, the it's taken things one step further to create fully-faired small capacity sportsbike.

Silent Agony
Reeter stormed out of the hospital, fury burning inside her. How dare Omelia say that? How dare she reject her, after all she'd done! If it hadn't been for her she wouldn't even be alive! Ungrateful little swine.
Turning down a side-alley, Reeter strode off down the dirty streets, not caring where she was going. Blazing with hurt and anger, she aimed a vicious kick at a stray cat who darted out in front of her. The cat hissed and slunk off, Reeter carried on walking. Eventually, after a myriad of twists and turns, she reached a dead end of an alleyway.
There, alone in the gloom, she vented her pain.
Shrieking like a banshee, Reeter kicked and threw any object she could get her hands on, from broken appliances to abandoned household items. Fury blazed in her pale grey eyes as she wreaked her destructive misery on everything around her. The hurt in her heart was so great she thought she would burst. She'd been rejected, cast-off by the one person she thought she could trust. The one person she called a friend.
And now she was empty, with nothing but this pain to fill the void Omelia had left in her soul.
Eventually, after destroying everything within reach, Reeter sank to her knees in the dirty street. Her fury had died inside her, and now all she had was this cold, hard misery. She heard Jack scamper into the alley behind her, saw his eyes widen as he saw the destruction she had wrought. Reeter ignored him and simply sat there, letting herself drown in the icy blackness of sadness and confusion that had invaded her soul.
Why had Omelia rejected her? Why would she not trust her, after all they'd been through?
Why wouldn't she say she needed Reeter as much as Reeter needed her?
Suddenly overcome with emotion, Reeter put her head in her hands and started to sob uncontrollably, her whole lean body shaking as tears streamed down her face.
But no sound escaped her lips.
Silent tears for a silent agony.

Anna knelt next to her grandfather's bed. The old man coughed as his eyes fluttered open and looked at her, a slight glaze over them.
"Grandfather, I have some news that might as well kill you, but news none the less," Anna gently held his wrinkled hand. He wheezed in response, though Anna couldn't tell what he had said.
"I'm engaged to marry Edward Hayes, as of this afternoon," she sighed, looking down. Her grandfather let go of her hand and traced his fingers along her cheek in sympathy, "It's going to be alright, At least your estate will stay in the family, right?" Sort of.
Benyse scanned Anna down one more time. Pouting out her lower lip she said, "Well, you still look like a tramp, but a beautiful tramp," Anna laughed and tugged on her gloves.
"I'll be heading into the market sometime today, I want some city air before I become confined to this manor."

Beaverkill Brown
Not my last fish of the season
The short story of this trout season has been one of extremes. The season started with 100 year floods and now we're experiencing scary low water conditions. I can't really say it's been feast or famine, 'cause we haven't quite had the feast part yet.
But hey - this is fishing, not golf. We don't complain. We fish when we can, and enjoy it regardless.
The past time I got out, the Fish Gods rewarded me with a fine Beaverkill brown trout
which certainly made the unusually cool conditions a bit more bearable.
Unfortunately, after releasing that fella back to the stream, I went to climb a rock and was struck with a sharp pain in my knee. A trip to the ortho brought the bad news - torn cartilage (medial meniscus, to be accurate), which is causing a locked knee.
Tomorrow I go in for a bit or arthroscopy to clear things up. Hopefully I will be back to the Beaverkill soon. Dunno if I will be able to bop around Horse Brook Run like I did last weekend, but that will not be the last fish of the season.

No more time to worry about them. No more time for anything.
And with a sudden gasp, he walks in the room -- that creature. I glare at him. He reminds me that it might not be good for me, smirking, and with a silent sigh, I stop glaring.
But just so he can show me what I'll get if I act rashly, he hurts me.
It burns my skin. I have no idea what he's doing, but the pain prevents me from even thinking about it. I scream. The pain gets worse, searing my shoulder. It feels like I'm on fire. And then it pierces. I scream once more.
And then, as if someone had sucked out all of it's energy, it stops.

Ballad Of The Spikey Haired DouchebagMature
Okay, so I've written a fair few things which are technically 'ballad' form, but this is something I'm willing to admit to having actual narrative. Enjoy!
I wake up in the morning with an empty bottle of Jagermeister,
Cans of Red Bull scattering the floor,
And I look like a disaster,
My hair is messier than ever before!
My collar is normal, what is going on?
My sunglasses have fallen to ground,
I better prepare myself after what has gone,
For the day that's coming around.
Half hour shower, the typical routine,
Gel in the bathroom, spike up my hair,
More deodourant than anyone has ever seen,
Put on my sunglasses to get some air.
Walking to the gym today,
Winking at women who look at me,
Not even my hangover is going to get in the way,
Of making my reflection better to see.
Pumping up the bar,
Hopefully all the babes will watch,
And I'm reminded of my pimpin' car,
I'll use to get them near my crotch.
My bro calls an emergency nearby,
A party is going on, I need to get his back,
As his wingman we will fly,
And get a girl with him in the sack.
Rock up to 'fully sick beats',
Thrusting my hips all around,
I want to get a girl between the sheets,
Because deep down, my self-esteem has all but drowned.
I thrust my hips left, I thrust my hips right,
I pick on the weakest guy who's there,
But chicken out of a fight,
I'm alpha, I don't really care.
It's the end of the night here,
Everybody is gone except myself,
Not a woman could I rear,
Low self-esteem is my mental health.
Then I just realise, there's nothing wrong,
I'm perfect and other guys are jealous lot,
They'll cry and sing a song,
I go home and pour myself a shot.
All those women, they're just too stupid,
Obviously the wrong crowd,
I'm more of a love god than Cupid,
It's all there fault, and I'm proud.
