April 11 Illinois basketball chat
Missouri assistant Isaac Chew will be announced as the third assistant at Illinois. Attended high school in Chicago. Worked with UI assistant Jamall Walker at Murray State.
Here's more from today's online chat by beat writer Paul Klee.
Hey Paul,
For all the emphasis on Chicago, is there a chance this staff broadens the recruiting areas outside of just Illinois?
J- You'll seen an emphasis in St. Louis, Indiana (although most of the good players in upcoming classes are committed), Ohio and some other spots. Prep schools. John Groce doesn't have much of a history recruiting jucos. He prefers not to. He took only one juco player in four years at Ohio University. They will emphasize Chicago. But they won't overemphasize Chicago. That's a plus. In the meantime watch for transfers and fifth-year seniors that are looking to move. Illinois needs players, mainly in the frontcourt and at point guard, and the new staff is working feverishly to add to the roster. Klee
How possible is it there may be some transfers? Who is the most likely, and would these players just go to Kansas State, or would it be more open? I literally woke up at 5am from a bad dream that DJ had transferred to Kansas State. Please calm my nerves and tell me no one is actually going to leave.
Retention- First, you need help. As for your question, these coaches didn't recruit these players; these players didn't commit to these coaches. So put it this way: the expected 2012-13 roster won't look like you're expecting it to look. Could be a recruit not arriving as expected; could be a player leaving. There will be movement. As for your dream... D.J. Richardson isn't going anywhere. He loves Illinois. And it would take a moving truck to transport all of his Chuck Taylors. If there's one thing I've noticed about John Groce - and I've noticed a lot - he rarely sees a bad shot. The coach is more inclined to shout at a player for passing up a shot than taking a bad one. Guys like D.J. Richardson appreciate that sort of approach. Klee
Any word on any possible transfers? I think athletic guys such as Henry and Langford would thrive under Groce's System! Your Thoughts?
Anonymous- Myke Henry is what the staff calls a "bucket-maker." He could play significant minutes as a sophomore - perhaps at the 4, if he doesn't mind playing the 4, and he doesn't. He's gifted. Scoring comes easy to him, and the new staff wants to score. Devin Langford led the prayer at the Illinois basketball banquet last night. If he finds a motor he could play, too. The size and instincts (especially the instincts) are there. Haven't seen anything to suggest he can impact next season; maybe as an upperclassmen. That's the quick answer. Klee
It's a shame Crandall Head transferred so soon, seems to be an offensive style he was looking for. Any chance he could come back?
Do you think it will hurt the U of I to not have retained Jerrance for recruiting?
Dave- We'll see. What I see is a coach building an impressive staff. Dustin Ford and Jamall Walker are excellent, particularly in player development. If you watched last season, that's what this team needs (dribbling, passing, shooting). Recruiting-wise, Walker will handle Chicago and St. Louis; Ford largely will be in Indiana and Ohio; John Groce will be everywhere. And there will be some overlap. Isaac Chew would work in Chicago, as well. By adding Chew, you get a guy that already is familiar with many of the Illini targets; he's recruited the same players. This staff wants to operate in a six-hour "breadbasket" of recruiting - while reaching outside of that ratio for the occasional prep school recruitment or otherwise. And six hours is a loose term. Hopefully you get what I mean by that.
As for your question, I think it would hurt the U of I more (from a PR/favored alumni standpoint) if it doesn't handle Jerrance Howard's contract situation well. He played at Illinois, he's an alum (so is his wife) and he was the lead recruiter on (roughly) half your roster. Want to lose Deron Williams' influence and good favor? Jerk around his best friend and former roommate. So we'll see which direction that goes. Jerrance is very good on the recruiting trail. And like I wrote in today's News-Gazette - joining Bruce Weber at Kansas State is a distinct possibility for Jerrance Howard. Unless something changes, I expect his next job will be in Manhattan. Klee
Klee when you taking a vacation? Everytime I look on illinihq you are breaking another story. LOL. Nice job these last few weeks. Question is this... would Ravonte Rice be a good option at Illinois? Thanks for keeping us informed it can't be easy making everyone happy...
J- I'm on vacation... soon as this chat is over. For a couple days, at least. It's been a good few weeks for the News-Gazette. As for Rayvonte Rice, yes, he would be an immediate-impact guy at Illinois when he became eligible. He would be one of your top two or three best players next season (if he were eligible next season, but that would only happen if there were special circumstances and he needed to be closer to home). Rayvonte Rice has a gang of schools after him. Kansas State, Missouri, Illinois and several more... and Marquette and Memphis got in the mixt yesterday, asking for his release. Kansas State is in good shape with him and could get a visit as soon as this weekend. As we wrote Monday, Illinois requested and was granted permission to contact Rayvonte Rice, and the new Illini staff did so. They'd like to get him on campus. He fits their profile of an attacking player. But as you can see - he has options. Klee
Hi Paul - There are reports of Isaac Chew from Mizzou as lead assistant for Groce. Any insight on Coach Chew? Thanks, EA
EA- Missouri assistant Isaac Chew will be announced as the third assistant at Illinois. Attended high school in Chicago. Worked with UI assistant Jamall Walker at Murray State. Has a relationship with the Irvins in Chicago. On an immediate level, might help with Rayvonte Rice. There's more. And there's your first Braggin' Rights win in a few years - taking a Missouri assistant. Klee
Do you think that Groce would land both Rayvonte Rice and Kendrick Nunn in 2013? With the need for a quality big man and Parker a possibility, it seems foolish to go after both. I would prefer having Nunn over Rice. Can you also give us an update on potential recruits you think would be a great fit with Illinois under Groce? Thanks again for the chat.
Brooks- Different types of players. Yes, if given the opportunity, you take both. Those are the types of players you will see this staff pursue - attacking, versatile and good ballhandlers. As for big men, since you need a couple, De La Salle's Gavin Schilling will be near (or at) the top of the list. He goes and gets it. And Cincinnati-area junior Devin Williams, who always has said nice things about Illinois, would be up there. The Illinois staff is familiar from their time in Ohio. There are others. Klee
Does Meyers Leonard have the intention to finish and obtain his degree? I wish him the best and can't blame him for moving on but the idea of earning an athletic scholarship to obtain a college degree seems to be lost now adays for getting visiblity and seeking the big money of the NBA. Colleges are the NBA minor leagues. I would feel prouder of both Meyers and Deron if they also were Illinois graduates as well as fine NBA performers.
Steve- To answer your question, Meyers was on pace to finish his coursework in three years (with an internship tacked onto the end). He said he plans to finish his degree at some point. This isn't me saying he will or won't get his degree or should or shouldn't have entered the draft. Just the facts. If I may offer an opinion, I tend to think the biggest reason we go to college is to get a job. Meyers went to college and will get a job. Klee
Please tell me that Coach Groce is simply pandering to the University VIP's when he keeps talking about wanting players who have a "desire to earn a degree". I understand this is the way it should be but it's not reality nowadays. If he truly believes this then you're eliminating the best players in the country right off the bat. Do you really think Jabari Parker wants to hear that Illinois wants him but only if he'll stay for 3-4 years to earn his degree??
Paul: Well you were right about Snacks. So congrats hope youre proud of yourself.. Jerrance is gone as you had predicted since Weber was fired... Whats next??
Just told you what would happen - not that I agree or disagree with the decision.
What's next? I'm out. Gone until Monday and leaving Marcus Jackson (firstname.lastname@example.com) in charge. No questions about the unusual banquet that took place last night? About Tracy Abrams becoming the first true freshman to be named Team MVP (Congrats, Tracy)? Thought that said as much about the upperclassmen as the freshman that won it. I pre-recorded an interview with Steve Kelly for SportsTalk tonight. And some more stuff coming later this week on HQ. Thanks for a news-packed couple of weeks. Talk to you Monday. Klee

text: I am traveling to Paris with my husband but we usually split up during the day to do our own things then meet up for dinner. Last time I was in Paris, I was there alone and found it very uncomfortable eating in a nicer restaurant Ex: La Bastide d'Odeon at dinner. I was stared at constantly.) Ditto for cafe bars in the morning, I'm not sure I saw a single woman in a cafe bar. Most of my single meals will be lunch and i would love to be able to enjoy some of the starred restaurants but am afraid it will be uncomfortable. Any suggestions for places with outdoor seating with fabulous food where I can at least read a book . I have eaten alone in several of the museum cafes and been perfectly comfortable, also le petit déjeuner in my hotel breakfast room was fine.

Dei to Dei
Dear Parents and Caregivers,
Languages Week and NAPLAN testing have made Week 4 of term very busy and School Photos on Friday just added to the complexity. Our Parents and Friends Association have been active in organising a number of events for this term, commencing with High Tea this Sunday (we will be praying for some fine weather). On Saturday 10th June they have organised a Quiz Night – so I encourage as many families as possible to support the work of the P&F – Quiz Nights are always fun events and a professional quiz master has been engaged to ensure a fair range of questions for all ages and backgrounds.
With only one week to go before the commencement of Year 11 and 12 examinations, our senior students should be well into their study and revision schedules so that they maximise their results in these important exams. Please refer to the link below under Study Skills Handbook. Under normal circumstances we would be commencing the nomination process next week for our 2017/2018 student leaders. However, we feel that the tenure of our senior leaders should conclude at the end of Term 3 and commence at the start of Term 4 each year – rather than the immediate past practice of their tenure concluding at the end of Term 2. Given formal lessons for many Year 12 students conclude at the end of Term 3, this seems a logical time for them to be handing over to the new leaders from Year 11.
Regards and God Bless,
John Aldous
Acting Principal

Using FIPS Codes to Select Geographies:
You can create a report to learn about a single geography or thousands at once. Use Federal Information Processing Standard codes (known as FIPS codes) to help streamline the process.
FIPS codes are identifiers for different geographies. For example, each county in the US has a unique five digits FIPS code assigned to it by the governmnet.
You can input one or more FIPS codes into the reports to pull up the places you wish to examine without having to click through and select from multiple menus. This is especially useful if you are researching a large number of small areas, such as 500 census tracts from different states.
Start by gathering your FIPS codes. In this example, we are inputting a list of counties from New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
Begin your report by selecting the survey from the list. Then, instead of picking your geographies from the drop down menus, click on the FIPS Codes button.
Select which geography type you will be inputting (e.g. 050 Counties).
Then paste your list of FIPS Codes into the box.
Click the "add" button to add them to your current geography selections. You will now see your geographies listed by name.
You can always add additional geographies of different levels by switching to another geography type and adding more. For example, add your list of counties and then add your list of states or tracts.
After adding your geographies, continue to the table selection and finish creating your report.

The way Larry Bausch sees it, the Celtic music revival has its place as an important turning point.
And he should know. When he is not overseeing the spiritual needs of his parish at Holy Trinity Anglican Church in Ocean Beach or enjoying time at said beach catching a few waves, Father Bausch is immersed in Celtic music. He probably possesses one of the larger record ollections in the genre in San Diego County. Well-timed trips overseas has allowed him to be in the audience at some famous festivals, including a highly regarded folk gathering in Cork, Ireland. His own parish has served as a showcase for entertainers from Ireland and the UK, many of them returnees who consider Ocean Beach one of the highlights of any upcoming North America itinerary. On October 9, Holy Trinity begins its 18th season, hosting the Tannahill Weavers, a band Bausch holds in particularly high regard.
How did the revival come to be? Bausch is happy to explain; "As to the premier bands, there were arguably four in Scotland and four in Ireland who led the revival in the '70s, all becoming internationally known: The Scottish bands were, in order of origin, the Tannahill Weavers, the Battlefield Band, Silly Wizard, and Ossian; the Irish bands were Clannad, Planxty, the Bothy Band, and DeDannan.
"As to the why for the revival, I'll start with the folk revival itself. In the 1950s, the U.S. led a major revival in folk music, which led to a similar movement in Great Britain, and, to a lesser extent in Ireland (think Martin Carthy, Ewan McCall, and the Clancy Brothers).
During the '60s, the next phase was the various instrumental developments adding to the tradition, once again starting with the U.S. (the Byrds, etc) and expanding to the U.K. (Pentangle, Fairport Convention, etc). What constituted the Celtic revival in the '70s was really a combination of all that had gone on in the previous decades: rooted in traditional songs, tunes, and instruments but willing to add other elements (the Tannies were the first significant folk band to incorporate the highland bagpipes, which had previously been either a solo instrument or in a pipe and drum band), often emphasizing either instrumental prowess or harmony singing, which were more concert-oriented than either dances or session playing. Many of the musicians were greatly influenced by rock 'n' roll and often brought an energy and passion to the traditional presentation that made the music more accessible to a young generation accustomed to such, including internationally. Indeed, some have argued that it was the Celtic revival in the '70s and after which gave rise to the spread and popularity of all sorts of traditional folk music across the globe ("world music")."
Tannahill Weavers veteran member Roy Gullane acknowledges the influence of rock. "We all grew up listening to the likes of the Rolling Stones and the Beatles, the Who, etc. Certainly a golden era for rock 'n' roll. Just like today, you're force fed that genre of music; there's no escaping it, so some of it must rub off," said Gullane. "Guitars are not a traditional Scottish instrument, so someone had to get that ball rolling. I suppose listening to rock music was a good start, it did have the necessary energy. When we added the bagpipes into the lineup it had never been done before, so we had a sort of carte blanche approach to it. There was no standard way of accompanying them with anything other than drums. Add the guitar and bouzouki, no rules. Lovely. As far as I'm concerned, for rock read enthusiasm."
Gullane will be joined on stage by another founding member, Phil Smillie (flute, bodhran, and whistles). The famous pipes of the band will be played by Lorne MacDougall and John Martin will be performing on the fiddle, cello and viola. The band's name comes from Scot Robert Tannahill, who wrote poems depicting the labor class of Scotland.
Like so many other Scottish poets, his work has been overshadowed by the better known Robert Burns, who still has dinners named in his honor in Scottish communities around the world. "It wasn't really his work that was the inspiration, it was simply that his name was so linked with the town of Paisley, which is the birthplace of both Robert Tannahill and the band," Gullane explained. "Add to that the fame of Pete Seeger's Weavers and there you have it."
With 17 albums under their belt, ambitious touring itineraries, and memorable appearances on A Prairie Home Companion (Garrison Keillor: "These guys are a bunch of heroes every time they go on tour in the States."), the Tannahill Weavers is one of the few bands still standing from the Celtic revival, Any explanation for the longevity? "I could tell you it's good healthy living," said Gullane, "but people know us better than that, although nowadays I'd describe the band's life style, in the words of Emo Phillips, as 'My body is not a temple, but a reasonably well run Christian boys club.' The biggest contributory factor to our longevity, I'm happy to say, is that people still want to see us play and we, most definitely, still want to play to people."
Rounding out 2015 at Holy Trinity will be two more concerts. Songwriter Gerry O'Beirne performs on November 20. Piper Eric Rigler (featured on the Titanic and Braveheart soundtracks) and Dirk Freymuth will present a Celtic Christmas show on December 18.

Natak Jari Hai
What does it mean to perform socialist 'agit-prop' theatre in India in a globalized era of increasing intolerance and inequality?
'Natak Jari Hai' is a documentary about Jana Natya Manch, or JANAM (The People's Theatre Front), the little theatre group that never stopped performing in the face of dramatic political transformation and personal tragedy. The film explores the motivations and ideals of the JANAM actors and their vision of resistance and change as they perform their 'People's Theatre' in diverse parts of India. It brings to life the world of socialist theatre through the words of JANAM's members, and through a reflective portrayal of the group's greatest tragedy - the assassination of its convenor Safdar Hashmi in 1989.
International Premiere: FID Marseille, 2006 (International Competition)

Deliveries of the Volkswagen Group during the first quarter of 2012 experienced a steep climb. From January-March 2012, it was able to deliver 9.6% more at 2.16 million vehicles, exceeding the two million mark for the first time in a year's first quarter. In January-March 2011, it sold 1.97 million vehicles. In addition, the Group posted record-breaking deliveries for March amounting to 862,700 units.
This is 12.5% higher than in March 2011 with 767,100 units. Christian Klingler, the Group Board Member for Sales, said that the Volkswagen Group developed very well in the first quarter as it performed strongly in North America, China and Russia. However, he pointed out the markets in Western Europe continue to be uncertain.
In the first quarter, the Group brands reported deliveries of 937,000 vehicles on the overall European market while for the same period in 2011, there was a 3.2% increase to 908,300. A total of 507,100 deliveries were recorded in Western Europe (excluding Germany), a 4.7% drop from the 531,900 units for the same period last year. This market is considered difficult for now. But in VW's domestic market of Germany, its deliveries increased to 282,400, about 5% higher than 267,300 units the past year. Its growth in the Central and Eastern Europe region had been strong, with 147,400 vehicles sent to customers, about 35.1% higher than the previous year with 109,100 units sold.
In addition, the Group had optimistic figures for the Asia / Pacific region in the first quarter, with deliveries of 726,100 units, 16.8% higher with 621,800 sold. Of this figure, 633,900 units were sent to customers in China (the biggest single market). This is 15.6% higher than the 548,500 units the previous ear. Meanwhile, deliveries in India grew by 21.6% to 34,100 units compared to the 28,100 units sent the past year.
In the American continent, deliveries continued to grow. In the first quarter, the vehicles sold in the North America region increased by 24.5% to 179,100 compared to 143,900 units in the prior year. Of this figure, 124,400 (34% higher than the 92,800 units the past year) were delivered in the U.S., the region's biggest single market. The Volkswagen Group sent more than 229,400 vehicles to customers in the South America region during the same period while it sold 220,900 units the prior year, higher by 3.9%.

PARIS (Reuters) - Local favourite Marion Bartoli suffered a surprise 6-2 3-6 6-3 defeat against Croatia's Petra Martic in the second round of the French Open on Wednesday.
The eighth-seeded Bartoli, a semi-finalist at Roland Garros last year, served 14 double faults as she crashed out in two hours and 12 minutes against the world number 50.
Bartoli came from a break down in the second set to level the tie but she never looked comfortable on Court Suzanne Lenglen under threatening skies.
Martic served an ace on her second match point to set up a third-round meeting with Spanish 29th seed Anabel Medina Garrigues.

'Wolf of Wall Street' boss molested 2 women and 'put wasabi down female worker's throat'
A CITY boss molested two women in shocking scenes likened to Hollywood hit Wolf of Wall Street.
Anthony Constantinou, 34, assaulted the women during after-work drinks at or near his offices in the Heron Tower in the heart of the Square Mile.
The chief executive of corporate business and solutions company CWM was convicted of two counts of sexual assault and cleared of one count relating to a third woman following a retrial at the Old Bailey.
Constantinou, who now faces jail, wiped his brow and appeared distressed as the jury delivered guilty verdicts by a majority after deliberating for 14 hours.
The verdicts last month could not be reported until the prosecution announced it would not be seeking another retrial on three more charges of indecent assault on two of the three women on which the jury could not decide.
"It's literally like the film Wolf Of Wall Street. I just cannot believe it because you never ever think stuff – you never hear – you hear about trading floors but you never see it"Victim of Anthony Constantinou
The court heard that in October 2014, Constantinou pushed a woman up against the frosted glass of the reception area and went on to grope and kiss her against her will.
Then in February last year, he assaulted another woman during drinks after a business meeting.
During the meeting, Constantinou threw her mobile against a wall and told her: "Don't answer phones in my meeting."
Later that night, he picked up a big chunk of hot wasabi paste and shoved it in her mouth, remarking to colleagues that she had a "cracking a*** and tits".
The woman immediately left the room but was followed by Constantinou, who pinned her against a partition and assaulted her in what she described as a "disgusting" manner, jurors were told.
She told police that he shoved his tongue in her mouth as if she was "a piece of meat".
She said: "It's literally like the film Wolf Of Wall Street. I just cannot believe it because you never ever think stuff – you never hear – you hear about trading floors but you never see it.
"So I am kind of going like, this is getting out of hand."
Constantinou, of Barnet, north London, denied all the accusations against him but declined to give evidence.
His legal team put the wasabi incident put down to brash behaviour and said it had been exaggerated by the woman.
Constantinou remains on bail ahead of his sentencing on November 11.

Civil partnership reform "inevitable"
Reform of civil partnerships is inevitable according to the archietect of the same-sex marriage bill.
In an interview this weekend former MP Lynne Featherstone says of civil partnership reform:
It's an inevitability, as it leaves an inequality that is not sustainable. It would be wonderful if the government would just do it. They've already had a review and a consultation, and everyone has come back saying 'yes, let it happen' but nothing does. This is because the government does not really want it to happen. I think that this case will be taken to the Supreme Court. I just wish people would do things themselves in a timely manner, not wait to be forced by law. It's bloody stupid!
Though she adds a note of caution:
As I say, the Tories would still prefer to remove civil partnerships altogether. That's the concern. During my time (in the 2010-15 government), I prevented them from doing so by promising to cause a lot of trouble if they tried.
The law currently allows mixed- and same-sex marriage but only same-sex civil partnerships, and though a series of legal challenges to that situation have produced legal opinion that change must happen, each time the government has been granted a little bit longer to explore the impact of the reforms of the past five years in Scotland, England and Wales.
The original civil partnerships bill included mixed-sex civil partnership registration, but this was removed from the text by the then Labour government when it was given time for debate in the Commons.

The key feature of DCPrime's technology is that the DCOne® platform provides the opportunity to produce dendritic cell-based vaccines as off-the-shelf allogeneic products, and thus bypasses the pitfalls of autologous products, in particular heterogeneity and high variability. Nevertheless, large-scale production of such cellular products is associated with many challenges, including acceptability by regulatory authorities, and we therefore invest continually in developing a GMP manufacturing process which lends itself to further scale-up. Together with EUFETS GmbH, a BioNTech company based in Germany, we are involved in preparing for our next clinical study in AML patients with DCP-001. This involves both up- and down-stream processing activities, plus development of many assays for in-process control and quality control. In addition, we are developing DCOne®-based vaccines loaded with known tumor antigens for other cancer types. Production of DCOne®-derived vaccines for large numbers of patients across a broad range of cancer types is DCPrime's overall main goal, and we consider this process technology investment critical for achieving this goal.
Successful completion of Phase I/IIa clinical trial for DCP-001
DCPrime's lead program is targeting AML with DCP-001, the first product that has been tested in a Phase I/IIa clinical trial in patients with AML. This was an open label feasibility and safety dose escalation study, and it has shown promising applicability of the vaccine: it was safe and well tolerated in all patients, and multi-functional immune responses were induced. Also, specific T cell responses against some of DCP-001's antigens were induced, as was predicted by pre-clinical data. Although the study was not designed to show a survival advantage, several patients show remarkably long survival, and patients in first remission responded best. Based on these data, we are now preparing a Phase II study in post-remission AML patients.

Rock Band Movies
Movies about Dysfunctional Rock and Roll Bands
There are few similarities between these films except they share a poorly coalescing, rapidly disintegrating or patently inept rock band.
Half Japanese
For the first half of this rockumentary, we figured it was a spoof. Especially since they have Penn Gillette vouch for the artistic talents of this garage band entitled Half Japanese. By the second half, it became apparent that there really is a band called Half Japanese. and we've just been out of the loop for the past 15 years. Apparently, Jad Fair and his brother, David, decided they could make music in their bedroom and get themselves heard. The fact that they were incapable of playing musical instruments was no deterrent to these guys, and they gathered a sizable cult of fans over the years. Jad has continued the band (David became an accountant or something), and he even learned to play the guitar after a while. Lack of financial and popular success have never mattered, and tenacity matched with sheer artistry drowned out their lack of musical skills. You can find some of their stuff floating around on MP3 sites and it might be worth your while to check them out. You can skip this movie, however, unless of course you already are a Half Japanese fan.
This all women's German rock band is made up of ex-convicts using music as their route to rehabilitation. They get into trouble, and then they try and get out of it. Nicht ausgezeichnet. Rated R. 110 minutes. German w/subtitles. 1997.
An aged English rock band reunites against their better judgment. Essentially a Spinal Tap copy, with music by Mick Jones of Foreigner and Chris Difford of Squeeze. Very funny performances by Stephen Rea, Billy Conolly, and Juliet Aubrey. Directed by Brian Gibson. 1999. Rated R. 95 minutes.
The Commitments
This is the saga of and Irish soul band that is cobbled together from a group of tough Dublin residents. With only one professional member, they rise quickly, as no one is more qualified than a Dubliner to sing sweet soul music. In the end, success cheats them, but they weren't ready to handle it anyway. The soundtrack is superb. The best part is that many of the players were taken from an open casting call amongst Ireland's finest. The story is from the Roddy Doyle Trilogy, which also includes The Snapper and The Van, which are also on film.
This Is Spinal Tap
Rob Reiner directed this mock rockumentary about the declining luck of a British rock band. Christopher Guest is in this, and it certainly left it's mark on his film style. It makes you wonder how the Stones hung together all these years. Look for Fran Drescher as a bit player 1984. 85 minutes. Rated R.
Leningrad Cowboys Go America
This may be one of the best Finnish movies you'll ever see. You might say this film is the Russian equivalent of Spinal Tap. A very unusual Russian rock band tries their luck on the American club circuit with mixed results. Winner of the best hairdo award at the Cannes festival you can even show this one to small children, but they will probably leave the room. Directed by Aki Kaurismaki. If you like this on, try to find the second best Finnish film of all time, Ariel.

I know what you're thinking.
"Kelly is stupid and so are all of his stupid boards. He's ruining my fantasy team, and frankly, my life."
I understand you. I feel for you. You're not wrong, but maybe you're not so right, either.
While Kelly's competitive woes only seem to increase, his endeavors outside the singlet are still categorically righteous. He created the best wave pool, ever, by like a mile. He started a new line of boards which, truthfully, he hasn't exactly ridden brilliantly this year, but at least Stu Kennedy stepped up and showed their worth. But here, in this video, we see exactly what Slater had in mind when he reinvented Greg Webber's polarizing "Banana Board".
Speedy, mid-sized Cloudbreak proved to be a perfect canvas for the endlessly-rockered epoxy design. Slater dips and dives, slashes and dashes, seemingly at will across cobalt Pacific walls. While he has proven that this board works, we can only hope to see waves of this caliber somewhere throughout the 2016 WSL season. Odds are it won't be at Rio, though, so hopefully he gets on Stu's program and puts the Sci-Fi to the test. If he even shows, that is.

Aronofsky Offered Wolverine 2 & Tales from the Gangster Squad
by Ethan Anderton
October 5, 2010
Source: Vulture
We heard at the end of August that director Darren Aronofsky was one of the top contenders to direct the sequel to X-Men Origins: Wolverine. However, apparently he was much more interested in helming the new Superman iteration The Man of Steel, which we just heard last week. But now that Kal-El has been handed over to director Zack Snyder, Vulture says Fox has been quick to officially offer Wolverine 2 to Aronofsky and he's now in talks with the studio to negotiate a deal. But it's far from a done deal since WB, still eager to work with the buzzed about Black Swan helmer, has offered Tales from the Gangster Squad as a consolation prize.
We previously told you that Warner Bros. had offered the aforementioned period crime thriller for Ben Affleck to direct, but the actor turned filmmaker has since turned down the project. In a strange twist of events, Affleck was apparently offered to direct The Man of Steel, but he turned that down as well. So now Aronofsky has a choice to make, and while either project will somewhat feel like sloppy seconds, his great working relationship with Hugh Jackman after The Fountain is giving the comic book sequel an edge in his decision.
In addition, Fox is eager to work with Aronofsky despite the financial failure of the aforementioned collaboration with Jackman. Apparently execs at Fox have been wooed by his frugal filmmaking ways garnering big returns in the form of awards attention for The Wrestler, and now early Oscar buzz for Black Swan. It's not clear which project Aronofsky will choose just yet, but we'll likely find out very soon. For my money, I'm dying to see a comic book flick, especially one with Wolverine, in the hands of Darren Aronofsky. How about you?

Any recommendations for a house any of you have stayed in and loved (with a good location)? Would prefer to avoid pull out couches/bunk beds if possible. :) This is an all adults weekend.
Thanks in advance!!

Looking for Group – part 8on March 11, 2013 at 12:01 am
So yeah, we're actually going to get some real zombies at this zombie support group. I bet you thought I was just going to have the wannabees and George, didn't you?
Shame on you.
A kinda important deal involved with this arc is that among these new zombies, we're going to get the first in canon female zombie character. I've had a female zombie appear in a one-off that is one of the random additional strips, but that really isn't reflected in Zombie Roomie actual stories… like the "A Zombie's Survival Guide" strips.
I've had another story that we'll eventually get to after this one that required introducing her, but I really wanted to have her in the comic before that comes along so when this arc was being formed in my notes… it seemed like it would be a great way to bring her in. I hope you guys dig her.

Under a new federal law, businesses are forbidden from restricting, prohibiting or penalizing consumer-posted reviews of the business or its goods and services. The Consumer Review Fairness Act of 2016 goes into effect tomorrow, March 14, 2017, and declares unlawful any "form contract" that prohibits or restricts the ability of an individual to engage in a "covered communication," which is broadly defined to include any review, performance assessment, or other similar analysis of the company's goods, services, or conduct. Our Pillsbury colleagues Michael Heuga, Amy Pierce and Catherine Meyer discuss the details of the new law in a recent Pillsbury Client Alert.
Articles Posted in Corporate Spotlight
Client Alert: Federal Court Rules New Overtime Requirements Won't Go Into Effect on December 1
What a difference a day makes.
As previously discussed in CommLawCenter, the Department of Labor announced in May a change to its overtime regulations. That change would more than double the minimum salary needed to qualify an employee as exempt from overtime pay, and was scheduled to go into effect on December 1, 2016. Because the change in the overtime-exempt minimum salary was so dramatic (moving from $23,660 to $47,476 annually) the business community has been seeking to block it or at least mitigate its impact. As part of that effort, Senator Lamar Alexander of Tennessee recently introduced S.3464 in the Senate, which would phase in the higher salary threshold over several years, and offer some relief to nonprofits, colleges and universities, certain health care providers, and state and local governments.
As we noted a few weeks ago, however, the likelihood of that legislation becoming law before December 1 is slim, particularly given that President Obama is likely to veto any bill that threatens to undercut the goal of using more overtime pay to help rebuild the middle class. Taking a different tack, the State of Nevada and twenty other states brought suit against the Department of Labor's new regulations in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. A similar suit brought in that court by the Plano Chamber of Congress and over fifty other business organizations was recently consolidated with the 21 States' suit.
In response to a motion filed by the 21 States, the District Court today granted a nationwide preliminary injunction, preventing the new salary threshold (and scheduled increases to it in future years) from going into effect until the court has had an opportunity to rule on the legality of the rule change. In doing so, the court made clear that the Department of Labor will have a hard time defending it. Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), Congress exempted from overtime pay those employees who are employed in a "bona fide executive, administrative, or professional capacity", and authorized the Department of Labor to adopt, and from time to time update, regulations defining which employees fall into those categories.
In granting the preliminary injunction, the court found that the Department of Labor had exceeded that authorization by including a salary component in addition to the "duties" test embedded in the statute:
After reading the plain meanings together with the statute, it is clear Congress intended the EAP exemption to apply to employees doing actual executive, administrative, and professional duties. In other words, Congress defined the EAP exemption with regard to duties, which does not include a minimum salary level.
[The FLSA] authorizes the Department to define and delimit these classifications because an employee's duties can change over time…. While this explicit delegation would give the Department significant leeway to establish the types of duties that might qualify an employee for the exemption, nothing in the EAP exemption indicates that Congress intended the Department to define and delimit with respect to a minimum salary level. Thus, the Department's delegation is limited by the plain meaning of the statute and Congress's intent. Directly in conflict with Congress's intent, the Final Rule states that "[w]hite collar employees subject to the salary level test earning less than $913 per week will not qualify for the EAP exemption, and therefore will be eligible for overtime, irrespective of their job duties and responsibilities." With the Final Rule, the Department exceeds its delegated authority and ignores Congress's intent by raising the minimum salary level such that it supplants the duties test.
Further buttressing his preliminary findings, the judge added that:
The Department has admitted that it cannot create an evaluation "based on salary alone." But this significant increase to the salary level creates essentially a de facto salary-only test. For instance, the Department estimates 4.2 million workers currently ineligible for overtime, and who fall below the minimum salary level, will automatically become eligible under the Final Rule without a change to their duties. Congress did not intend salary to categorically exclude an employee with EAP duties from the exemption. [Cites omitted for clarity.]
It seems likely the Department of Labor will seek an immediate appeal of the preliminary injunction for two reasons. First, of course, is the fact that the federal government hoped that once the rule change went into effect on December 1, it would be politically impossible to reduce the salary threshold without incurring the ire of millions of employees now receiving overtime pay. Second, and a more recent development, is that if the preliminary injunction holds, and the court case continues beyond January 20 (as it will), a Department of Labor within the Trump administration might no longer be interested in defending the rule change, effectively letting the preliminary injunction become permanent.
On top of that, if the final result of the court case is a ruling that any increase over the existing $23,660 annual salary requirement is impermissible without a statutory change, then the drastic increase in the salary threshold attempted by the Department of Labor will have backfired. Any effort to adopt a more moderate increase in the salary threshold would run headlong into the court's decision here. And the law of unintended consequences strikes again.
Ain't No Cure for the Overtime Blues
But there are treatments available. When the Department of Labor announced in May that it would more than double the minimum salary needed to qualify an employee as exempt from overtime pay on December 1, 2016, you could hear the collective gasp from businesses nationwide. That sound echoed even more loudly in broadcast studios across the country, as the "round the clock/breaking news" nature of running a broadcast station places a high premium on employees that aren't locked into a 9 to 5 existence. By increasing the minimum salary needed for an employee to qualify as overtime-exempt (from $23,660 annually to $47,476 annually), the rule change may price many broadcast employees out of their jobs.
Everything You've Been Told About Paying Interns May Now Be Wrong
Interns are a perennial part of the media landscape, and you have probably heard a lot over the last few years on the subject of unpaid interns. Specifically, that unless they qualify as genuine interns under a six-part Department of Labor (DOL) test, businesses are required to treat them (and therefore pay them) as employees.
The resurgence in interest in the subject came in early 2010 when the Department of Labor began stepping up enforcement against for-profit businesses illegally using unpaid interns. In April of 2010, the DOL's Wage and Hour Division released a Fact Sheet providing guidance on when an individual can be classified as a trainee or intern exempt from the Fair Labor Standard Act's requirement that employees be paid at least the federal minimum wage and receive overtime pay. The Fact Sheet dutifully laid out the six-part test that the DOL adopted in the 1960s, noting that "[i]nternships in the 'for-profit' private sector will most often be viewed as employment" unless all six of the criteria are met. The six criteria are:
- the internship, even though it includes actual operation of the facilities of the employer, is similar to training which would be given in an educational environment;
- the internship experience is for the benefit of the intern;
- the intern does not displace regular employees, but works under close supervision of existing staff;
- the employer that provides the training derives no immediate advantage from the activities of the intern; and on occasion its operations may actually be impeded;
- the intern is not necessarily entitled to a job at the conclusion of the internship; and
- the employer and the intern understand that the intern is not entitled to wages for the time spent in the internship.
From the DOL's perspective, if an employer can't demonstrate that all six factors are met, that intern is an employee, and the employer is liable for unpaid wages.
However, if you operate in New York, Connecticut, or Vermont, the rules have now changed, and if you operate in one of the other 47 states, change may be on the way. In a case launched by unpaid interns that worked on the film Black Swan, the influential U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit last week rejected the DOL's test as too rigid. In doing so, the Second Circuit overturned a lower court's certification of class actions on behalf of the unpaid interns, finding that the question of employment status is a "highly individualized inquiry" poorly suited to a class or collective action.
As discussed in much more detail in a Pillsbury Client Alert from our own Julia Judish and Osama Hamdy, the Second Circuit chose instead to adopt a "Primary Beneficiary" test, which "focuses on what the intern receives in exchange for his work" and "also accords courts the flexibility to examine the economic reality as it exists between the intern and the employer." Simple, right?
Business owners might justifiably complain that the court replaced a complicated six-part subjective test with a simpler but even more subjective test. However, the Pillsbury Client Alert lays out a number of considerations suggested by the court for determining whether an intern is the primary beneficiary of the relationship with the employer, including an increased focus on the connection between the internship and the intern's academic course of study. The court wrote that
[b]y focusing on the educational aspects of the internship, our approach better reflects the role of internships in today's economy than the DOL factors, which were derived from a 68‐year old Supreme Court decision that dealt with a single training course offered to prospective railroad brakemen.
While a number of the considerations suggested by the Second Circuit are similar to those in the DOL test, the difference is that the court's test provides the flexibility to look at other factors that might be relevant to answering the question, and unlike the DOL test, does not consider the absence of any one factor to be determinative of an intern's status under the Fair Labor Standards Act.
Rather than listing the court's suggestions for factors that might (in addition to others) be considered, let me suggest you take a look at the Client Alert. It not only outlines those factors, but suggests a number of steps businesses can take to clarify their relationship with unpaid interns, whether they are subject to the DOL or the Second Circuit criteria.
The good news for employers is that the Second Circuit's test (which for the moment only applies in the Second Circuit's jurisdiction of NY, CT, and VT) allows a business to present any information relevant to demonstrating that the unpaid intern is not an employee. The bad news is that the unpaid intern has that same flexibility in seeking to prove he or she is really an employee that needs to be paid. In addition, employers in these states face an increased risk of misclassification claims for internships not connected with an academic program. Making sure your business has done all it can to end up on the right side of that analysis is your next challenge.
IRS Ruling Affects Media (and Other) Businesses Dabbling in Bitcoin Use
While it has been around since 2009, Bitcoin has seen substantial media coverage in the past few months. Media outlets (as well as many other businesses) have been increasingly dabbling in the Bitcoin world, if for no other reason than to show they are up to date with the latest consumer fixations.
While numerous businesses have begun accepting Bitcoin transactions, the most likely place to find them in the media world is as contest prizes or as part of an advertiser promotion. Of course, one of the principal reasons for the novelty of Bitcoin is its goal of being an electronic currency unregulated by governments. As a result, how businesses have been treating their usage of bitcoins from an accounting and legal perspective is highly variable, since it is in many ways a new frontier.
That frontier changed significantly yesterday, when the IRS ruled that virtual currencies like Bitcoin are to be treated as property for federal tax purposes, with transactions using virtual currency subject to much the same tax treatment as those involving U.S. currency. Our own Jim Gatto, head of Pillsbury's Social Media and Games Team, distributed a Pillsbury Client Alert discussing the ruling. In that Alert, Jim notes that the impact of the IRS ruling includes:
- Wages paid to employees using virtual currency are taxable to the employee, must be reported by the employer on a Form W-2, and are subject to federal income tax withholding and payroll taxes.
- Payments using virtual currency made to independent contractors and other service providers are taxable and self-employment tax rules generally apply. Normally, payers must issue IRS Form 1099.
- The character of gain or loss from the sale or exchange of virtual currency depends on whether the virtual currency is a capital asset in the hands of the taxpayer.
- A payment made using virtual currency is subject to information reporting to the same extent as any other payment made in property.
- For purposes of computing gross income, a taxpayer who receives virtual currency as payment for goods or services must include the fair market value of virtual currency received as measured in U.S. dollars, as of the date that the virtual currency was received.
The Client Alert provides additional detail, but if you are using bitcoins for any type of transaction, whether as contest prize, currency for purchases on your website, or payments to employees and vendors, the IRS has made clear that you will need to follow the same procedures (and pay taxes) as though the transaction had occurred in dollars.
While that is a big issue for businesses doing large Bitcoin transactions, businesses dabbling in small and occasional Bitcoin transactions will need to pay even closer attention than they would to a transaction using traditional currency. For example, if the prize in a station contest is one bitcoin, the station will need to assess whether awarding the prize triggers the need for issuing IRS Form 1099 to record the awarding of the prize. In a cash prize contest, that is straightforward, since the Form 1099 currently specifies a prize of $600 or more as the threshold for needing to issue the form. As I write this, however, the current Bitcoin exchange rate is roughly $582 U.S. dollars per bitcoin. That means a one bitcoin prize would not trigger the need for a Form 1099, but a two bitcoin prize would.
Similarly, yesterday's IRS ruling seems to indicate that the bitcoin must be valued for tax purposes at the time it is received. As a result, the station holding the contest would need to check the value of a bitcoin on the day the prize is awarded to see if it is above or below the $600 threshold for tax purposes. Of course, given the volatility of the Bitcoin exchange rate, this raises other questions, such as how do you value the bitcoin for tax reporting if the exchange rate was below $600 for part of that day and above $600 for part of that day, or if the day the prize is "sent" is not the same day as the prize winner receives or "cashes" it.
Like so many things, Bitcoin appears to be another example of something meant to simplify life, but which is turning out to only make life more complicated. Look for life to get even more complicated as individual states formally adopt a similar approach in treating virtual currency transactions as taxable events.
Recent Decisions Make Too Much Employee Confidentiality a Problem
Being businesses built upon the value of information, and working constantly to create new business models aimed at monetizing that information, the communications industry tends to be very careful about letting any form of information leave the building. That, along with the highly competitive nature of the industry, means many industry players keep a very tight grip on all business-related information. As a result, the communications industry often ranks up there with defense contractors in imposing broad confidentiality restrictions on their employees, either by contract or through general corporate policy.
There are times, however, when the government has determined that public policy considerations outweigh the need of a business for secrecy. The most obvious exceptions come in the form of subpoenas and search warrants. However, there are also more subtle exceptions, one of which is addressed today in a Pillsbury Client Alert from our employment and litigation practices. The Client Alert addresses a number of decisions that have been coming out of the National Labor Relations Board, several of which found that the respective employer's confidentiality policies violated the National Labor Relations Act because the policies could be read to prohibit employees from discussing wages, benefits, or other terms and conditions of employment with anyone else.
Under the National Labor Relations Act, such confidentiality restrictions are illegal, largely because they impede employees from engaging in collective bargaining or other employee protection activities. For those who are about to breath a sigh of relief after thinking to themselves "this doesn't affect me since my business isn't unionized," hold that breath for a moment. As the Client Alert points out, while it is true that the National Labor Relations Act, and the National Labor Relations Board, are known mostly for their union-related jurisdiction, the National Labor Relations Act applies to all private employers that affect interstate commerce, not just union shops.
As the federal government's regulation of much of the communications industry, particularly broadcasting, is based upon the interstate nature of those businesses (even where a station's service area is entirely within a single state), it is safe to say there are few in the communications industry that are not subject to these recent rulings. In fact, while I won't attempt to summarize the Client Alert here, as it is brief and well worth taking the time to read, I will note that one of the decisions discussed involves a player in the communications industry whose confidentiality policy was actually found to be acceptable.
In light of these recent decisions, all businesses should take a look at their confidentiality policies to determine whether they can be read to prohibit, for example, employees from discussing their salaries, raises and bonuses with each other. If the confidentiality policy is written so broadly as to unintentionally prohibit such activities, a rewrite of that policy is in order. In contrast, if the very notion of employees discussing their salaries with each other gives you heartburn, and your confidentiality policy is specifically targeted at preventing such conversations, then you have a more extensive policy rewrite ahead of you, and a lot more heartburn coming.
Drawing the Line Online: Employers' Rights to Employees' Social Media Accounts
With the unprecedented popularity of social media, employees have increasingly used LinkedIn and other online forums to network for business and social purposes. When the line between personal and business use is blurred, litigation may ensue. A federal court recently ruled that an employer did not violate federal computer hacking laws by accessing and altering its recently departed CEO's LinkedIn account, but that the former CEO could proceed to trial on her state law misappropriation claim. In addition, California, Illinois, and Massachusetts recently joined Maryland in enacting laws prohibiting the practice of requesting access to prospective employees' password-protected social media accounts.
In Eagle v. Morgan, et al., Linda Eagle, former CEO of Edcomm, Inc. ("Edcomm"), filed a complaint in U.S. District Court in Pennsylvania alleging that Edcomm hijacked her LinkedIn social media account after she was terminated. While Eagle was CEO of Edcomm, she established a LinkedIn account that she used to promote Edcomm's banking education services, to foster her reputation as a businesswoman, to reconnect with family, friends and colleagues, and to build social and professional relationships. Edcomm employees assisted Eagle in maintaining her LinkedIn account and had access to her password. Edcomm encouraged all employees to participate in LinkedIn and contended that when an employee left the company, Edcomm would effectively "own" the LinkedIn account and could "mine" the information and incoming traffic.
After Eagle was terminated, Edcomm, using Eagle's LinkedIn password, accessed her account and changed the password so that Eagle could no longer access the account, and then changed the account profile to display Eagle's successor's name and photograph, although Eagle's honors and awards, recommendations, and connections were not deleted. Eagle contended that Edcomm's actions violated the federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act ("CFAA"), Section 43(a) of the Lanham Act, and numerous state and common laws. In an October 4, 2012 ruling on the company's summary judgment motion, U.S. District Judge Ronald L. Buckwalter dismissed Eagle's CFAA and Lanham Act claims against Edcomm but held that Eagle had the right to a trial on whether Edcomm had violated state misappropriation law and other state laws.
The Eagle case is just one example of how the absence of a clear and carefully drafted social media policy can lead to protracted and expensive litigation. This area of law appears to be garnering increasing attention on the legislative front as well as the judicial front, as three more states recently enacted laws prohibiting employers from requiring, or in some cases even requesting, access to prospective employees' social media accounts. The attached chart includes more detail about the California, Illinois, Massachusetts and Maryland laws and the provisions of similar legislation pending in the various states and in the U.S. Congress.
A common theme connects the Eagle case with the recent password access legislation: the importance of defining the lines of ownership and demarcating the boundary between the professional and the personal. If Edcomm, for example, had established a LinkedIn account for its CEO's use and had asserted its property interest in the account at the outset of the employment relationship, Edcomm's CEO would have had no reasonable expectation of ownership in it. Under that scenario, Edcomm likely would not be facing trial on a misappropriation claim. Similarly, the social media password legislation definitively declares that employers and prospective employers have no right to access the social media accounts that applicants and employees have established for their personal use.
In addition, as explained in our recent Client Alert on enforcement actions under the National Labor Relations Act in connection with employer discipline of employees for social media postings, employer responses to employee use of social media can also result in government agency action against employers. These developments all point to the same message: employers wishing to avoid legal risk should be proactive in implementing well-defined policies and procedures relating to the LinkedIn, Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook and other social networking and media accounts of prospective, current and former employees, including clearly identifying rights to those accounts when the employee leaves the company.

Increase in HSR Thresholds Makes More Room for Larger Communications Transactions
While the FCC gets to have a say in nearly every sale or merger in the communications industry, no matter how small, the Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission will also be called upon if a transaction is large enough. The test for when a transaction is large enough to require a filing with the DOJ or the FTC is whether it exceeds the minimum financial thresholds of the Hart-Scott-Rodino ("HSR") Act.
Because of inflation and other factors, however, the HSR thresholds must be annually adjusted to accurately separate small deals from big deals. This separation is critical because the DOJ and the FTC have limited resources to investigate transactions, and therefore only require advance notification of transactions that involve companies or transactions above a certain minimum size. Transactions that fall below the HSR reporting thresholds, however, are not immune from antitrust scrutiny even after they are consummated if they are likely to have an anticompetitive effect in any relevant market.
On February 27, 2012, the HSR thresholds will increase significantly, with the "minimum size-of-transaction test" threshold increasing from $50 million to $68.2 million. If the value of the proposed transaction is above $68.2 million but below $272.8 million (up from $200 million), reporting is required only if the ultimate parents of the acquiring and acquired entities meet certain "size-of-person" tests, the thresholds for which will also increase on February 27, 2012. Subject to a myriad of exemptions, transactions valued at over $272.8 million under the HSR regulations must generally be reported. If that sounds complicated (and it can be), Pillsbury's Antitrust lawyers recently published an Advisory with more details on these changes.
While transactions that meet these thresholds must be reported whether or not they are communications-related, the thresholds can be particularly relevant to large broadcasters, since broadcasters that enter into a transaction requiring an HSR filing need to be aware that they may not be able to implement a local marketing agreement or similar cooperative arrangement in conjunction with an anticipated acquisition until the HSR filing has been made and the mandatory post-filing waiting period has either passed without action by the DOJ/FTC, or the DOJ/FTC have agreed to terminate the HSR waiting period early.
With communications transactions starting to heat up again, the increase in the HSR thresholds is welcome, and may simplify transactions that fall above the current HSR thresholds, but below the new ones.
FCC Enforcement Monitor
Pillsbury's communications lawyers have published FCC Enforcement Monitor monthly since 1999 to inform our clients of notable FCC enforcement actions against FCC license holders and others. This month's issue includes:
- Failure to Refresh Tower Paint Garners $8,000 Fine
- FCC Levies $25,000 Fine for Failure to Respond
- $85,000 Consent Decree Terminates Investigation Into Unauthorized Transfers of Control
Tower Owners Receive Harsh Reminder Regarding Lighting and Painting Compliance
The FCC, citing air traffic navigation safety, has fined many tower owners for noncompliance with Part 17 of the Commission's Rules. Part 17 includes regulations pertaining to the registration, maintenance and notification obligations of tower owners. The base fine for violating Part 17 requirements is $10,000.
Part 17 supplements the notification obligations imposed by the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA"). Section 17.7 of the FCC's Rules requires that certain tower structures, including most structures over 200 feet in height and those near airports or heliports, be registered with the FCC. Section 17.21 mandates that most towers over 200 feet be lit and painted in accordance with the FAA's recommendations. These recommendations include the use of orange and white paint (alternating bands) and red or white flashing, strobe or static lights.
With the recent release of two Notices of Apparent Liability ("NAL"), the FCC continued its pursuit of those who fail to comply with its tower rules, including Section 17.50, which mandates that any tower required to be painted in accordance with the FAA's guidelines or the FCC's Rules must be cleaned or repainted as often as necessary to maintain good visibility.
In the first of the two NALs, agents from the Dallas Field Office inspected a 402-foot tower located in Quanah, Texas and determined that the existing paint, which was faded, scraped, peeling or missing in certain areas, was insufficient. The NAL indicates that the agents were unable to distinguish between the orange and white bands from a "quarter mile from the [tower]", thereby "reducing the structure's visibility."
Shortly after the Quanah inspection, agents from the Dallas Field Office also inspected a 419-foot tower located in Durant, Oklahoma. The agents found a similar situation, where the tower's paint was faded, scraped, peeling or missing in certain areas. The agents were again unable to distinguish between the orange and white bands from "800 feet away from the [tower]", once again "reducing the structure's visibility."
The FCC levied the full base fine of $10,000 against each tower owner. The FCC also mandated that no later than 30 days after the release of the respective NAL, a "written statement pursuant to Section 1.16 of the Rules signed under penalty of perjury by an officer or director of [the tower owner] stating that the [tower] has been painted to maintain good visibility" be delivered to the Dallas Field Office.
Should Media Lenders Feel Less Secure?
In an uncertain economy, obtaining financing for business transactions can be a challenge. It can be even more challenging for FCC licensees, since FCC rules prohibit granting a security interest in an FCC license. Because lenders want an enforceable lien on all of a borrower's assets, when those assets include FCC licenses, agreements must be structured carefully to give a lender all of the economic benefits of holding a security interest in the FCC license, without taking a security interest in the license itself.
The standard approach has been to provide the lender with a security interest in the "proceeds" of a license sale. That approach was called into question last October after a decision by the Colorado Bankruptcy Court (In re Tracy), which held that a security interest in the proceeds of an FCC license does not survive bankruptcy. While many communications lawyers saw this decision as an aberration, and the New York Bankruptcy Court (In re Terrestar Networks) rejected it outright in reaching an opposite conclusion last month, just a few days after that New York decision, on appeal, the Colorado U.S. District Court affirmed the reasoning in Tracy, once again opening the issue to debate.

Explozone Series: Nurturing a Culture of Thinking
Target Level: Grade 3 - 8
Length of Series: Two 1/2 day sessions, two personal meetings with helping teacher, approx. 6 in-class co-teaching sessions
Time of Day: 1/2 day morning sessions
Description of the Series:
This workshop looks to help teachers develop thinking and social skills with their students in new and different ways. Teachers will be exploring building a culture of thinkers in their classroom. As our curriculum moves to more inquiry-driven models, and encourages the integration of the thinking 'competencies', we have a growing need for teachers to actively nurture both social and thinking competencies in the classroom. The skills needed to work collaboratively in a group, to think critically, to communicate ideas, and to generate new or innovative ideas are not skills that come naturally to all students. This workshop looks to help teachers begin developing these thinking in their students in new and different ways, and to support teachers as they begin to build a culture of thinkers in their classroom.
The helping teacher will work with the classroom teacher, as well as with the teacher and their class together, towards the goal of completing at least one activity morning at the Explozone. Teachers will also make a final projected plan regarding where/how they will incorporate the competencies in upcoming units of study.
