text: The law firm of Finkelstein, Thompson & Loughran announces that a lawsuit seeking class action status has been filed in the United States District Court for Southern District of New York against Sea Containers Ltd. and certain of its officers and directors on behalf of purchasers of Sea Containers securities between March 15, 2004 and March 24, 2006, inclusive, Finkelstein, Thompson & Loughran is investigating similar claims at this time and welcomes inquiries from potential class members concerning their rights and interests in this matter. The lawsuit alleges that Sea Containers violated federal securities laws by issuing a series of false or misleading public statements regarding the sale and restructuring of its ferry division and related impairment charges. On November 3, 2005, the Company announced that it would entertain offers for its Silja Oy Ab ferry division as its SeaStreak business, which would result in an impairment charge of $99 million related to the future sales. It additionally announced a $32 million impairment charge based on newly identified assets had been identified as impaired. On March 24, 2006, the Company shocked the market by announcing that: (1) it would be take a $500 million impairment charge as the result of: the sale of its entire ferry business, rather than the previous announced sale of the Silja Oy Ab division, and classification of additional containers as impaired; (2) as a result of the $500 million impairment charge it would be in violation of net worth convenants contained in its borrowing agreements; (3) that it would restate its financial statements for the first three quarters of 2005; and (4) investors should no longer rely on their previously issued financial results for the first three quarters of 2005. The market reacted sharply to this news with Sea Containers' share price dropping from a close of $12.06 on March 23, 2006 to a close of $7.45 on March 24, 2006, constituting a drop of nearly 38% in a single day.

Citing money concerns, Fort Worth Opera will cut back its 2015 festival from four to three productions, indefinitely delaying the planned world premiere of American composer Libby Larsen's A Wrinkle in Time.
"I was looking at this season and next season, and wondering where the money was going to come from," says the company's general director, Darren K. Woods. "Even during the recession, costs never went down and donations have remained the same.
"This year's budget is $5.4 million, and next year would have been almost $6 million. I just felt we couldn't sustain it."
To balance costs with income, Woods concluded that he needed to cut back the 2015 budget to $4.5 million. Axing the world premiere, which called for extra sound and video equipment as well as new sets, would save about $1.2 million.
Repertory for the 2015 season will comprise two productions, still to be announced, at Bass Performance Hall, plus the chamber opera Dog Days, by composer David T. Little and librettist Royce Vavrek, in an alternative space.
Fort Worth Opera has attracted international attention with a brave series of new opera commissions and productions and has raised performance standards dramatically during Woods' 14-year tenure. The company had seemed minimally scathed by challenges that prompted major season cutbacks by the Dallas Opera and Dallas Symphony Orchestra and pay cuts for Fort Worth Symphony musicians. But after mounting four productions in 2008, the company cut back to three the next year, returning to four in 2011.
Although the company hasn't run a deficit in the last 10 years, Woods says fundraising has not kept pace with rising costs. Local corporations have cut back on arts funding, while foundation donations have remained flat. And while most opera companies get contributions from between 38 and 45 percent of ticket buyers, Fort Worth's average is only 18 percent.
"We have relied so heavily on five 'angels' that are now down to two or three," Woods says, "and we're leaning on them harder and harder. It just seemed to be unfair to be going back to them again and again.
"It's probably true everywhere to some extent, but the community of Fort Worth is used to some big families stepping in and taking care of it. Our audience has never completely taken responsibility for funding the organizations they care for."
The 2014 festival, running from April 19 to May 11, will include the professional premiere of With Blood, With Ink, by composer Daniel Crozier and librettist Peter M. Krask; the regional premiere of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Silent Night, by composer Kevin Puts and librettist Mark Campbell; as well as Mozart's Così fan tutte and Bizet's The Pearl Fishers.

It doesn't matter when you grew up, Stand by Me is the quintessential coming of age film that makes everyone feel nostalgic. Everything from the soundtrack, to the campfire tales, to the summery forest setting captures perfectly the innocence the four boys whose friendship is put through the gauntlet when they embark on a quest to find the body of a missing child.
The influence of the film is is still strong today as we see Stand By Me referenced, honored, alluded to and straight up stolen from. We're going to take a look at 5 examples of how the legacy of Stand by Me lives on in film and TV today.
1. Stranger Things
Netflix's latest hit show, Stranger Things, is a perfect example of mixing influences together. Everything from E.T to Close Encounters of the Third Kind to Twin Peaks has been drawn from in the awesome new show from the Duffer Brothers. A lot of the story framework seems to have been lovingly nodding to Stand by Me. The story of three boys (not four, I know) on the pursuit of their missing friend Will Byers (Noah Schnapp). In fact, to audition for the roles the boys actually read lines from Stand by Me, encouraged to emulate and embody the iconic characters. The boys on Stranger Things scare each other over games of Dungeons and Dragons rather than campfire tales but the feeling is the same.
2. Mud
Jeff Nichol's coming of age film sees two young boys (again not four, I know) gallivanting around the bayou, avoiding their parents and their schools. The fun stops suddenly as the discover an escaped convict, Mud (Matthew McConaughey) living on a remote Island. Together, they decide to help him avoid the police and vigilantes and reunite him with his lover (Reese Witherspoon).
Nichols has definitely watched River Phoenix's performance as Chris in Stand by Me as one of the young boys, Neckbone (Jacob Lofland), is almost a carbon copy of the character. Both have been labelled as troublemakers by the locals because of a drug dealing brother and both play the troubled, don't-put-me-in-a-box teen so well. It looks as though the hair and costume were also pinched from Stand By Me.

3. The Simpsons
Arguably one of the longest running shows ever, The Simpsons manages to stay relatively fresh by being the ultimate reference and parody machine. You know you have made it into the pop culture hall of fame when The Simpsons has parodied you: from Shakespeare to Orange is the New Black and literally everything in between. Stand By Me is no different as it was referenced in a particularly dark episode of the Simpsons where Homer visits a hypnotherapist who tricks him into revisiting his 12 year old self. Homer uncovers a repressed memory and can't stop screaming until it's revealed through a flashback that when he was roaming the woods with his three buddies (Lenny, Carl and Moe of course) they discovered a dead body in a quarry.
4. Kings of Summer
John Voight Robert's The Kings of Summer was a breakthrough hit at the 2013 Sundance film festival. The story of three young teenagers who venture into the woods to build a house and create their own rules free from the control of their parents and society in general. The director was convinced that the charm of Stand By Me was the chemistry between the kids and it was essential that he use that as a springboard:
"From the initial stages of me being involved in the movie, I always described it as a post-modern Stand By Me That was a generation of kids who could do that stuff, our generation can't, we're incapable wusses who'd never survive out there."
5. Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow
Rob Reiner's classic film exported a slice of American culture across the world and its influence wasn't restricted to just America. Arguably one the most important games ever, the original Pokemon (versions Red, Blue and Yellow) released in Japan for the Gameboy back in 1996 (recently celebrating its 20th anniversary) drops the gamer into the perspective of a young boy on the verge of starting a great adventure, setting out into the wild to carve a place in the world for himself. As you are beginning your adventure, before you leave the safety of your house, your character looks to the TV and, lo and behold, there is a nice, subtle reference to Stand by Me as you are about to set off.
Stand By Me hit a nerve and broke ground on new ways to represent young boys dealing with the turmoil of growing up. The forest itself is a symbol of freedom from parents and society that constantly comes back time and time again. The characters need to prove that their no longer boys by scaring each other, showing their grit and living without rules. It's a rare feat to create a film that so many people can relate to but Rob Reiner has created something timeless that still has the power to make people feel warm and fuzzy about their own childhood memories. I'm sure it wont be long before we see a remake attempt in the works.
What are your favorite Stand By Me references in pop culture?

because NC State is kind of baffling. They have zero wins over a P5 opponent with a record above 0.500. They have one win against a G5 oppenent with a winning record. S&P+ sees them as the #33 team in the country. The only other teams they've played with a pulse have been losses.

|Per S&P+
We have beaten every team we rank higher than. We have lost to the two teams we rank lower than. Per the fancystats, we should win this game by two scores. What the fancystats don't tell us though, is that a RS FR QB in his first start, at night, in cold crappy weather might make things un-fancystat-able. We have a ton of known positives, just don't know if Peters will help or hinder those positives Saturday night. My gut tells me he will get a maximum of 20 passing attempts unless things get weird. If he keeps calm and trusts his defense to get him the ball back, he should be fine.

Fucking Christ. Nick Saban at LSU was 26-12 in his first three years. He was 26-8 in his first three years at Alabama. Urban Meyer was 31-8 in his first three years at Florida. Pete Carroll was 29-9 in his first three years at USC. These are all elite coaches with National Championships to their name. We are getting there. Stop the whiny bullshit and just enjoy the ride.
We aren't losing to opponents that we have no business losing to. Remember losing to Rutgers? I do. Remember losing to Toledo? I do. That shit isn't happening anymore. Save your crying for when we lose to a team we have no business losing to. We have been competitive in every single game save two - 2015 OSU and 2017 PSU. That's two fucking games in three years we haven't had a chance. The rest are just losses in a competitive sport. Harbaugh is 26-8 while building a team for the future.

|Something else that
Something else that contributed to my good overall feeling was the pace of the game. It wasn't chopped up poorly by official timeouts and lasted only 3 hours. Compared to the MSU game which didn't feel like a game at all. That felt like "how many commercial breaks can we get in 4-1/2 hours and still pretend tonight's purpose was to broadcast football?"

I dunno, they scan my ticket before I get to the elevator every game. Once I get off the elevator there's a podium set up with two ushers and they check the tickets and pull the stubs.

|For what it's worth, they are
For what it's worth, they are pretty upfront about it before you buy the tickets. I go to every game so it hardly matters to me. Just wanted to add light to the discussion for the OP as to why they aren't sold on Stubhub. I see below others have listed sites where they've purchased before. Go Blue!

I have seats in the Jack Roth Stadium Club section 400. I'm not allowed to sell them through Stubhub or other ticket brokers.

They prefer you donate back to the university if you aren't going to use them. Very rarely do they have additional seats.

|Further data - since 2007
Further data - since 2007 Michigan has only played in 4 such games. It isn't like we're biting off a huge sample size here, so I think a disclaimer should be made when someone chooses to cite this stat.
|4 weeks 5 days ago
|Also, this is kind of a
Also, this is kind of a strange stat to pick on. Since 2007, Ohio State has only had 4 opportunities for top 10 opponents on the road. Florida State has only played in 6 such opportunities. So to compound your point further, it makes no sense to cite a stat such as this when the occurence is rare, specifically here because of Michigan's success (lack thereof) over the last decade.
For a more current reference and since the head coach actually does factor into this heavily, Harbaugh has only had one such game in his tenure at Michigan - 2016 Ohio State. Odd that an Ohio State fan would bring this statistic up in this thread, state that he/she isn't trolling, but then again maybe it isn't coincidence. There is the opportunity for three such occurences this year - which is great for the B1G. This is also very likely to be the most down year we see for several years under Harbaugh.

|I'll share what I share with
I'll share what I share with others about college football. I love watching Michigan win. I get sad when they lose. It's normal to be upset after a loss, how much you let it affect you is totally up to you. College football is really a strange animal - there's no preseason, so few games, and losses are devatating towards title hopes. Baseball you can lose 60+ games and be in the playoffs.
What comforts me is that the University of Michigan is so much more than a score in a football game. It is an amazing place with amazing people. I look to the work they do at the children's hospital and think - man, that's awesome. I personally go to the Kellogg Eye Center for treatment of my genetic retinal disorder. Some day in the future I will likely lose all of my eyesight. Right now it is very limited. They have pointed me to potential treatments that might just preserve what I have. The Kellogg staff is world class in service and knowledge. I get the best treatment because of their committment to excellence. What the University of Michigan does not only in the local community but the world, makes me proud to cheer for their football team. If they lose a football game it's okay, it is still just as awesome of a university to me as it was the day before.

|I started growing a beard
I started growing a beard before the Iowa game. Under Harbaugh with no beard, we were 19-3. Since growing the beard we are 5-4. I had to let everyone know, I just can't live with the guilt my selfishness has inflicted on our program any more.

I think it is important to include in the narrative that he went 10-3 with a team that was 5-7 the year before. The 3 losses last year were by a combined 5 points - this with essentially the same squad as the year before minus Rudock. I dunno, I'm impressed with how the future looks right now. His young squad right now will only continue to grow and improve over this year and next.

There were rumblings from other fan bases that Michigan fans would push for his dismissal if -
We lost to OSU this year
We only won 10 games
We didn't win the B1G
These were just asshats outside of the fanbase that wanted to stir up shit. One such fan base has a head coach who turns purple at the first sign of stress. File this shit under Saban to Texas, Jon Gruden to [any team here], and Harbaugh wears on fans with his antics.
Saban will retire at Alabama
Gruden makes 7 figures to explain spider y-banana
Harbaugh is beloved by anyone you talk to at Michigan
Have to tune out the noise sometimes because the talking heads run out of shit to talk about - which is when they resort to making shit up for headlines.

|I think the important thing
I think the important thing to remember as we analyze performances - is data. We have more than enough data on Speight. He has been at times very good. He has been at times fairly bad. Sometimes he's performed just ok. The data on O'Korn is limited, so right now it is just about a guess as to how this last week could translate.
That said, I was very impressed with how O'Korn performed on Saturday. It was nice to see the offense finish drives. I do wonder though how this will translate moving forward. I would very much like to take the approach that O'Korn will continue to play very well. There is also a part of me that wonders why he didn't earn the starting role for the last two years. I do hope he continues to play well and will be looking for more data (as I think we all will) before I can make any kind of solid conclusion. I'd honestly like to see him get that chance.
Another point of optimism is that we have some weapons that can catch the ball. Perry is pretty damn good. Gentry is long, rangy, and fast enough to cause chaos up the seam. We figure out how to get the ball to DPJ a few more times a game and I think we will be set. McKeon seems to have found a role with the offense as well.
Appreciated the break down of the QB play and enjoyed the post. Thank you for sharing.

|The problem here is that
The problem here is that Purdue doesn't really have a great squad in either offense or defense. They are #71 in overall S&P+, #66 in offense, and #75 in defense. Against an average team (ranked #50) Michigan's defense should give up 12.8 points. Purdue should struggle to score points this weekend and likely will. Missouri's defense is pretty terrible, #100 in S&P+. If Missouri is a benchmark for how an offense will perform against the second best defense in the country, then I would say Purdue fan is getting their hopes up for nothing.
Michigan's offense is #49 in S&P+ which is pretty average. Against an average defense they should score 32.0 points. Purdue's defense is well below average. Secure the football and play field position with Purdue and they will struggle. Harbaugh's philosophy is that if you win two of the three phases in football (offense, defense, and special teams) you typically win the game. Two of those phases are clearly advantage Michigan. If the offense pulls it together, we will see a blowout Saturday. I'm not incredibly nervous about this game. I give their fans credit for getting pumped up. Wierd shit happens in college football, but I don't think it will to Michigan on Saturday.
|9 weeks 21 hours ago
#41 in S&P+ defense which is slightly above average. The cupcake portion of their team is the offense.
Florida is #8 in S&P+ defense.
Compare that with Penn State who hasn't played a team with a defense ranked above #80. I'd venture to guess their OL would grade out well in this exercise.
|9 weeks 22 hours ago
|Gotta have some trust that
Gotta have some trust that the coaches are looking at this stuff. Harbaugh commented about the red zone scoring saying, "It's like a pickle jar with too many pickles in it. You just have to turn it upside down and get that first one out then the rest will come."
Think about how terrible Jake Rudock was through his first 6 games and then think about how that worked out. I guess I'm not ready to throw my hands up in despair just yet. Young team, new offensive coach, smothering defense, pretty decent special teams play. I think we can win the next couple games before Penn State and iron out some wrinkles in doing so.
Being concerned is fine, providing analysis of the struggles isn't hurting anything - saying that Drevno or Hamilton should be fired is absurd at this point in the season.

I haven't really seen any of those cool red zone passing plays where receivers are running crossing routes. Speight his a few of those last year and Rudock hit some of those that I thought would surely be picks. I dunno. We are getting to the red zone but not finishing. Maybe you are right and it is mostly on the OL. I'd guess with the time and analysis you put into just the red zone scoring from last game, maybe you are right. Last year felt like the drive to the red zone was the problem. This year it feels like once we get there we don't know what on Earth to do.

The Review
The Review is a beautiful theme from GhostPool, designed like a magazine site but packed with various functions that make it perfect for reviews. It impresses with a clean design and plenty of white space; there's no crowding of content, so it's easy to see everything on display without feeling overwhelmed.
Another notable feature is the sheer breadth of content that can be included for each item being reviewed. Each item on your review site gets its own hub page with tabbed navigation – displaying not just the item's review but also news, videos and images. This means that site visitors can get a truly rounded opinion. What's more, The Review enables front-end editing. Users can post, edit or delete reviews without logging in to the back end, and site admins can approve those edits.
The specs for The Review are fairly typical: clean, easy-to-read code, responsiveness, integration with the Visual Composer plugin, cross-browser compatibility, a child theme and a variety of layout options. It also supports the WPML and Contact Form 7 plugins. Worth mentioning is the AJAX filtering on every page, post and review, so content can be accessed easier and quicker.
The Review has a lot going for it and is an attractive option as a clean, focused review theme.

Entrance is a content-focused theme designed for magazines, reviews, and other publications that prioritize long-form written pieces over photo or video content.
Since the first place your readers come to when visiting your website is your homepage, it's crucial that you present a positive first impression. Entrance gives you seven layout choices to format your homepage, with a preference for straightforward column and grid layouts that keep it easy for visitors to find the article they're looking for without having to use your site's search bar. The theme makes it simple to organize your content based on multiple categories, with either a sidebar or header menu available for navigation within the website.
Page layouts themselves are functional if somewhat limited, with the blog feeling a bit redundant – basically you should expect a pretty straightforward publishing experience. However, there are many useful shortcodes included that make your text elegant and invite readers into a more engaging and enriching experience. Block quotes, columns, drop caps, and highlights all combine to enhance your written content and provide a polished reading experience.
While an image slider is available, this is a theme whose limitations are apparent should you wish to include elements such as embedded photo galleries or videos. But there is no denying that this theme is an excellent choice for, say, a literary review or long-form journalistic publication.
Other important and useful features:
- Drag-and-drop content builder for easy page building
- Built-in author box for profiling your website's contributors

You can also rearrange the layouts to suit your needs – coupled with the selection of widgets and the drag-and-drop page building function – giving you numerous potential finished looks.
A couple of things that MagXP does particularly well are the AJAX tabs and search feature, and the social media integration. The AJAX additions make the site easy to navigate, and the large number of social media icons and conversion boxes enable fast, easy sharing.
For a simple, versatile review site, MagXP is a great choice.

The option to include a fullscreen image as the background for your homepage makes NewsMag a great choice if your publication is heavily reliant on high-resolution photography. If that's not your style, you can create a masonry grid of articles, plus feature sidebar content to include columns and other text-only pieces. If you want to display your content on your homepage without thinking too much about it, you have 14 different block layouts to choose from. Using this theme's page builder makes creating a custom layout simple, enabling you to embed sliding photo galleries, news videos, ratings-based reviews, and clickable ads wherever you want.
If creating pages from scratch isn't so appealing to you, a wide number of layouts exist for you to easily create articles in a number of different formats. For BuzzFeed-style listicle creations, NewsMag offers four different layouts that vary between sliding image galleries to single page scrolling lists. There are also multiple templates for creating simple posts featuring single images and conventional text-based articles.

Engine is an incredibly robust theme geared towards publications and reviews that cover what's trendy and new, particularly in tech.
If you aspire to build a magazine in the style of Wired or Engadget, there are dozens of features you will love about this theme. Publishing viral content is at its core: a sidebar widget showcasing your site's top stories and a slick-looking bar graph showing trending topics based on keywords or categories help boost the hype. The menu features some of the coolest visuals and navigation options we've seen at aThemes (and we don't say that lightly), with sharp flat-design icons revealing a neat list of subcategories in a dropdown menu that display article thumbnails without appearing overcrowded. Meanwhile, the drag-and-drop page builder makes creating articles – whether they are long form written pieces, product reviews with photo galleries and five star ratings, or standalone videos – super easy.
One of the most important aspects of this theme is its deliberate design for in-depth engagement with readers. A straightforward forum builder enables you – and your readership – to create multiple discussion threads, with a super easy login and registration feature for frequent readers to signup and participate in discussion boards.
Pick Engine as your theme if you have a highly interactive and engaging publication; don't pick this theme if you're looking for a simple blog or magazine, because that would be a waste of its incredible array of features.
Other important features include:
- Built on Bootstrap 3 (i.e, it's meant to be consumed on mobile devices)
- Minisite creation for multiple categories of content
- Comparison system for performance evaluations of articles/posts
- Smart ad system optimizes placement of ad banners for maximum revenue
REHub is a modern multipurpose theme from Sizam Design. Besides being great as a review site, you could also use it for your blog, shop or magazine. Jam-packed with content, it has a wide range of potential uses.
REHub comes with a lot of capability for customization. It's compatible with three shopping plugins (WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads and Ecwid), and even has demo pages designed for each one. You're provided with several designs for comparison pages, post formats and top posts, as well as more than ten content blocks for the home page and plenty of header customization options. Shortcodes galore give you even more customization ability.
Other aspects of REHub that we think you'll like are the various branding and advertising options, and the ability to add a catalogue to your site. You might also appreciate the compatibility with bbPress and WPML plugins for easy content sharing and community building.
For a well-rounded review site, REHub is an excellent choice.
As you would expect for a theme with this name, Goliath is a feature-packed magazine and reviews theme with a sleek look and exceptional functionality.

That's why it was built on Bootstrap 3.1 and features an integrated touch/swipe master slider – this theme is absolutely meant to be played with on a smartphone or tablet. A plethora of design options means that you and your design team will be able to customize the homepage layout, header, menus, and articles from top to bottom.

Gonzo is a minimalist review theme most suitable for smaller publications or solo bloggers who are looking for a cool yet unsophisticated style for their website.

You can display your content on the homepage via either columns or in masonry blocks, with a gallery module in-between showcasing visual media to break up the white space.

Volkswagen will launch its new used-car warranty program dubbed "WorldAuto" this October as part of its campaign to sell at least 800,000 vehicles in the U.S. VW is relying on this program to help dealers sell the conquest trade-ins. The program extends a limited one-year, 12,000-mile warranty for the non-VW makes and models. It originated from a program started two years ago in Europe.
He said that there would be more conquest trade-ins to be moved from its lots. R.L. Polk & Co. said that last year, the number of new buyers from its rival brands has increased by 21% compared to the prior year. The VW's year-over-year increase in 2008 was just 7%.
VW launched a pilot gram last February at 20 of its dealerships in the U.S. Joe Gunther, a VW dealer, was thankful about this move, saying that there would be more trade-ins when they get to the 800,000 figure in the U.S.
He added that not all of them could be offered wholesale. The limited warranty covers certain engine and transmission repairs, as well as those involving the air conditioning and the suspension.
Buyers also get roadside assistance. The program only includes those vehicles that have fewer than 75,000 miles on the odometer. Scott Weitzman, general manager of used-vehicle operations for the VW brand, said that the cars have to be no more than six years old.
To be certified in the UK, the vehicles have to pass a 112-point inspection. This move is somewhat of a departure in how dealerships handle used-car sales. Most of its dealerships consider used-car sales to be a highly lucrative part of business.

Fire danger is high across New Mexico, and state officials announced Friday that they will impose fire restrictions for all 33 counties starting this week.
The restrictions will take effect Wednesday at 8 a.m. They will prohibit the use of fireworks, campfires and other open fires. Smoking will only be allowed in buildings, on paved surfaces or in vehicles with ashtrays.
Officials said the restrictions will apply on all non-municipal, non-federal and non-tribal lands in New Mexico and will remain in effect until rescinded.

This year marks the 15th Blender Conference, held in Amsterdam around the last weekend of October every year. I've attended quite a few of these conferences, and each year feels better than the one before.
If you've never attended the Blender Conference, allow me to set things up for you: By open source conference standards, it's a pretty small event. But for events focused on a single open source program, the Blender Conference is pretty impressive. I think attendance this year clocked in right around 300 people, and tickets were sold out more than a month in advance. Read More

The proposed bill that will allow workers to "disconnect" or ignore text messages, phone calls and e-mails from superiors after work hours gained the support of the Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP).
TUCP said workers should be given the "right to disconnect" and not be reprimanded or penalized for not responding to text messages and emails sent or received after work hours.
"Although it is the employee's choice to either respond or ignore electronic communications after work, they are constrained to respond anyway for fear of reprimand from overbearing bosses," TUCP President Ruben Torres said.
Authored by Quezon City Rep. Winston Castelo, House Bill 4721 or An Act Granting Employees the Right to Disconnect from Work-Related Electronic Communications after Work Hours defines work hours to include "time spent reading and responding through electronic means, including but not limited to emails, short messaging services (SMS), and mobile phone calls, after work hours.
TUCP said while information technology helped increase productivity and connectivity, workers must be given "a choice and compensated for doing work-related communications after work."
According to the group unpaid work hours spent in answering employers' text messages and emails is widespread.
Labor Secretary Silvestre H. Bello III earlier said the "right to disconnect," or letting employees disregard work-related communications after office hours without disciplinary action is, technically, a voluntary engagement between employers and their employees.
"Answering or ignoring texts, emails from employers after working hours is a voluntary engagement of an employee, and they are not obliged to respond or not. The right to disconnect is a choice of an employee," Bello said.

Leiter Discusses Raid On Bin Laden's Compound
Bit by bit, new details are trickling out about the raid that killed Osama Bin Laden. As that raid unfolded, the president's national security team was gathered in the situation room to watch. Among those in the room was Michael Leiter, head of the National Counterterrorism Center.
MELISSA BLOCK, host:
This is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR News. I'm Melissa Block.
MICHELE NORRIS, host:
And I'm Michele Norris.
Bit by bit, new details are trickling out about the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. As events unfolded, the president's national security team watched from the Situation Room. And among them was Michael Leiter. He's head of the National Counterterrorism Center, the NCTC, and he spoke today with our colleague Mary Louise Kelly for the first time since the bin Laden news broke.
MARY LOUISE KELLY: As they huddled this past Sunday, Michael Leiter and the president's other advisers were able to track the Navy SEAL team as they made their way towards their target.
Mr. MICHAEL LEITER (Director, National Counterterrorism Center): From the time that U.S. aircraft entered Pakistan, all the way until U.S. forces were back on the ground in Afghanistan, we were able to monitor the situation in real time.
KELLY: It must've been incredibly tense, that moment in particular I wondered about when the helicopter looked as though it might be going down.
Mr. LEITER: Well, although I just said we were monitoring it in real time, I will tell you it never felt like real time. It really did feel like slow motion. It just felt like hours and hours were going by. And certainly when that helicopter came to the ground and the rudders stopped spinning, that was a tense moment.
KELLY: Leiter has run NCTC for nearly three years now, so he's no stranger to tense moments. But he admits everyone in that room knew they were taking a big risk.
Mr. LEITER: Ultimately, we knew that there was a chance he was there and I think people also knew that there's a chance he wouldn't be there. And ultimately, I think everyone knew that the president had a very, very tough decision to make.
KELLY: Now that the operation is over, U.S. spy agencies are combing through computers and other electronics gathered in the raid.
Can you share at all who's looking at those, whether they're finding anything useful yet?
Mr. LEITER: Well, the CIA has certain skills and expertise and interests, as does the FBI, the NSA and NCTC. And we're all focused on that material for different purposes. I think the two primary purposes would be for detecting ongoing threats that we're obviously concerned about. And second, to target other high-value targets within al-Qaida.
KELLY: You mentioned the concern about ongoing threats. Can you share whether there's any specific threat information out there at this point?
Mr. LEITER: Right now, there is no specific intelligence about ongoing threats. We certainly have been concerned about potential retaliation. And again, nothing specific and, hence, no change in the threat levels. But that is something that the NCTC and others, DHS and FBI, are particularly focused on.
KELLY: Now to that other focus Leiter mentioned: Chasing down al-Qaida's remaining leaders. I asked him about bin Laden's presumed successor, Ayman al-Zawahiri. Is it safe to assume he also is in Pakistan?
Mr. LEITER: I think we certainly suspect he's in Pakistan. I do think it's important to note that although second in command, he doesn't have nearly the sway that bin Laden did. He is not nearly, I think, as charismatic and I think he is not as nearly as much of a folk hero as is bin Laden.
KELLY: We mentioned the intelligence work that U.S. officials are now doing, trying to go through the material left in that house. Does Zawahiri have to assume his current hiding place may be compromised?
Mr. LEITER: Zawahiri has been and will continue to be a target of U.S. counterterrorism efforts. And I think what this should show to all members of al-Qaida, that if bin Laden was not secure, no leader of al-Qaida should consider themselves secure.
KELLY: To that end, Michael Leiter says a big cheer went up in the Situation Room when it became clear they'd gotten their man. But that after that it was back to work, trying to figure out how next to hit al-Qaida.

A downloadable asset pack
A small set of four swords that start similarly but have changes made down the line.
The green set was meant to be a sort of dragon-blade, the red set was demon-based, blue is tranquility-based and the last is light-based. These were the ideas that I had while making them, of course you're welcome to do what you like with them.

I want to give you a quick update on what I've been up to this week. I've been having so much fun! I mentioned in my last post that I was hoping to get caught up in a musical collaboration. I also shared a video from +stephen jedlicka with you. Well, would you believe it, I've teamed up with Stephen to lay down some tunes! What are the odds of that?

Complete Zombies vs. Robots
Tonight I'm back on the comic trail with a very quick review. The comic I bought was IDW's 2009 compilation comic called ZOMNIBUS, but I'm only going to talk about one bit: the outstanding Complete Zombies vs. Robots.
15 November 2014
Dead but not forgotten...
I've been writing this damn blog for a long, long time and so far haven't had to resort to a "where the hell have I been" post. There's a first time for everything I guess. I can see that it's been a long while since my last update and even longer since I did anything worthwhile worth talking about.
The funny thing is: I've been really busy, but I don't seem to have a whole lot to show for it. Surely I must have been up to something? Let's see...
The funny thing is: I've been really busy, but I don't seem to have a whole lot to show for it. Surely I must have been up to something? Let's see...
I've been patiently waiting for my last comic "Dead Hand" to be available in all the usual retail outlets. It seems that this comic in particular has been taking far longer than the others did to work its way through the system. At the time of writing it's been well over a month and it still hasn't hit the Amazon shelves. Pah! The other comics have now racked up 1000+ downloads!
Foolishly, I've begun work on part 4... "The Lost Man". I'm about half way through it's production and I must say that if you thought the first three were a little obtuse, then you're in for a real treat here. It's an odd mix of psychedelia and gothic horror all melded together like a cowboy's worst nightmare. I can't decide yet whether it is a work of twisted genius or complete folly. I will only know if I make it to the end. So far the ride has been great fun. Unlike previous comics, I haven't shared a great deal of the artwork on Google+, but if you go looking, you'll find most of chapter 1 and a few hints of what is in store.

severity 620031 important tags 620031 + confirmed thanks Le 29/03/2011 13:06, Torsten Crass a écrit :
Justification: renders package unusable Severity: grave
unison-gtk still works when no terminal interaction is involved (e.g. when you use an agent).
After a recent upgrade, unison-gtk ceased asking for a password when selecting an ssh-based synchronization profile from the list [...]
In a clean wheezy chroot, unison-gtk still asks for a password. After upgrading everything but openssh-client (1:5.5p1-6 -> 1:5.8p1-3), this feature stops working.
[...] BTW, it does not make any difference whether or not ssh-askpass is installed. [...]
Well... unison implements its own terminal interaction and doesn't use ssh-askpass. Somehow, this interaction is broken with the new version of openssh-client.
Any ideas?
I've put openssh maintainers in CC, maybe they'll have an idea. For information, unison works by allocating a new terminal, running ssh in it, and waiting for ssh output (in an expect-like fashion, see terminal.ml in unison sources). When launched manually, messages are the same with both versions of ssh, but unison doesn't detect ssh prompts when it launches ssh itself.
Cheers, -- Stéphane
