I applaud the result, just not the methodology of achieving it. The reasons were probably to deliver support for international strongarm action in response to the one day blackout opposition protest to SOPA/PIPA. We will over the next few weeks start to see the stories from the legitimate users of the services. The musicians that used the service as a genuine methodology of distributing their creations. What the content industry have failed to realise is that file sharing is a meme. Legislation is eventually based on the moral majority. (e.g.: Draft/Vietnam/War). The economic backlash on the cloud industry will be huge and could delay cloud storage and Software as a service adoption by several months if not years. Jackboots, posturing and Riding Crops, whilst amusing to observe from the sidelines always appears to have a pushback from the rank and file. For example, the Anonymous takedown of the FBI site in supposed retaliation. (Naïve untrained kids armed with WMD scripts...) The industry conveniently forgets that each one of their campaigns against file sharing has resulted in an even bigger and more efficient response. Interdiction by various corporations resulted in the begats. Napster begat Grokster and Donkey and Limewire and Bittorrent AND Rapidshare, Megaupload etc. However Politicians and the industry also forget that P2P is now a legitimate communications protocol utilised by Global corporations like Telstra (Cache-Logic acquisition for the delivery of T-Box VOD via P2P), and NTT for developing IBM like Grid Computing at the edge of the network. With 800MHz plus processors in edge devices, if we multiply that by say 4 billion devices than the edge has 2 Ehz of computing power which (if all activated simultaneously) conservatively is 40-50 times larger than all the Telecom backhaul channels in the world. We have no choice. The edge is going P2P. Essentially, that was made possible by Shawn Fanning. (Not the technology, just the commoditisation of the technology.) So while a little industry called entertainment (less than five percent of any countries GDP) now bows and gives way to the IT industry, (powering over 80% of all GDP) the 200 employees of the RIAA, the RIAJ, IPFI, et al who would find themselves unemployed unless they can continually instigate henny penny scenarios leading to actions like the Megaupload public takedown, are patting themselves on the back. History is full of people that oppressed the populace for their own selfish reasons. Joseph Stalin, Adolph Hitler, Idi Amin. With thousands of deaths attributed to either a solitary one man or the regime presided over by one man. Frank O'Conner made an interesting observation yesterday in reference to the US going to war over file sharing echoing sentiments that I expressed sometime ago. Wouldnt it be a shame if World War III erupted over a couple of songs. Refs: The report on Arstechnica http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2012/01/why-the-feds-smashed-meg aupload.ars

About Me
~~Alliana Moira Turner~~
~Daddy's Angel & Mommy's Ballerina~
Born February 13, 2013 at 4:49 PM via C-Section
7 lbs 5 oz 19 inches
On February 11, 2013, I had an ultrasound done to count Alliana's movements since I had high blood pressure. She was asleep at the time, so she wasn't moving very much. The next day, we got a call telling us to come into the hospital - that they were going to induce me. They inserted cervidil for the first day, but I only dilated to a 1 cm. On February 13th, they started me on pitocin. After a few hours of being on that, they checked and I was still 1 cm dilated. At 4PM, they told me I was going in for a C-Section. I was so upset that I didn't even get to feel what contractions truly felt like and that I didn't get a chance to push, but at least my daughter was coming into this world. When I went into the room and they started cutting, all I could do was listen. They wouldn't lower the drape when they reached my daughter. She was crying before they cut her out, and I just burst into tears of happiness when I heard her. They cleaned her up and handed her to my fiancee'. I got a quick glance at her before he took her to the nursery. When I was finished being stitched up, they took me by the nursery and I burst into tears again when I saw my baby (which was the only baby in there. Our hospital is small.) When they brought me into the recovery room, my OB came in and explained that my daughter had bilateral clubfoot and explained that she could refer us to Shriners to have it fixed. Even before I went in for the C-Section, I told the nurses I didn't care if she had feet and that I would still love her. I was still emotional, though, because I knew she wouldn't be able to do everything that every other kid can do and that she'd be in pain with the casts, surgery, & boots. After the OB left, I waited for my baby to be brought into me, but my sisters and parents came in first and it felt like FOREVER until my fiancee' brought my daughter in. Then, he held her for a long time (I feel like I'm complaining, but I REALLY wanted my baby) before I could hold her, but I think that's because I was still shaky from the C-Section and the side-affects of the medicine. When I got to hold her, I cried again. I couldn't believe that I was a mom. After everyone left, I finally got a little alone time with Alliana & my fiancee, who stayed the night in the hospital with me. Since I was unable to get up and grab her, I depended on him & the nurse that night. The next day, I was determined to move around a lot, so I asked the nursery to watch my daughter while I got a little exercise and took a shower (which never felt so good!) That night, my fiancee' had to work, so I thought I'd have to leave my daughter in the nursery, because they won't let someone who's had a C-Section be alone with their baby until they feel they can. Later that night, though, when the nurse brought Alliana in for a feeding, she let her stay in with me since I could get up and move around without a problem (don't get me wrong, it still hurt because of the staples, but I was more determined to take care of my daughter.) The next day, when my OB came to check on me, I requested to be discharged (I don't like staying in hospitals) and at 6 PM I was discharged.
Starting when Alliana was 3 weeks old, we began her casting to help move her feet into the correct position. Here is a video of her progress (though I don't have any recent ones of her in her boots & bars. She is a little Houdini with those, though lol)

Did big plays equal points in 2012?
Red zone efficiency on offense and defense is huge in the Big 12, but if you string together oodles of big plays, can you rack up points regardless? Let's have a look at how the Big 12's top scoring teams did in that category.
- Oklahoma State -- 92 (45.7 points a game, first in Big 12)
- Baylor -- 86 (44.5 points a game, second in Big 12)
- West Virginia -- 70 (39.5 points a game, third in Big 12)
- Texas Tech -- 68 (37.5 points a game, sixth in Big 12)
- TCU -- 60 (28.3 points a game, eighth in Big 12)
- Kansas State -- 59 (38.8 points a game, fourth in Big 12)
- Texas -- 59 (35.7 points a game, seventh in Big 12)
- Oklahoma -- 54 (38.2 points a game, fifth in Big 12)
- Iowa State -- 44 (24.5 points a game, ninth in Big 12)
- Kansas -- 40 (18.3 points a game (10th in Big 12)
Very intriguing. At the top and bottom, the correlation is basically perfect. In the middle? It's a complete mess. Here's a plus-minus on where the team finished in the two statistics.
- Baylor -- 0
- Iowa State -- 0
- Kansas -- 0
- Kansas State -- minus-2
- Oklahoma -- minus-3
- Oklahoma State -- 0
- Texas -- 0
- TCU -- plus-3
- Texas Tech -- plus-2
- West Virginia -- 0
I still believe in Kansas State as the league's most efficient offense, but it racked up the fourth-most big plays and ranked sixth in scoring. I still think that showcases efficiency considering K-State scored those points and turned big plays on more than seven percent of its snaps in 2012. It ran fewer plays than a lot of teams in the Big 12, but scored points on the highest percentage of its drives.
Oklahoma, meanwhile, could have a case for a lack of efficiency in these numbers.
TCU's plus-3 wasn't very surprising. Late in the season, it was largely boom or bust for the Frogs offense. It lacked a lot of consistency, but a few times a game, Trevone Boykin seemed to find ways to break a long score. The offense wasn't very good, but it was explosive in some spots.

SACRAMENTO, CA - You can credit Jay McKeeman, who represents the state's Independent Oil Marketers Association, for stopping gas prices from going any higher.
McKeeman convinced the Gov. Jerry Brown and regulators to let refiners produce winter blend fuels earlier than normal, but it's going to take a few more days to get that cheaper fuel to consumers and bring prices down further.
"Another problem in terms of prices is that fuel merchants have purchased the more expensive gasoline, so they have to sell that," McKeeman said.
Just as prices appear to be on the verge of decreasing, there's worry about that Chevron refinery in Richmond that's had to cut production since early August because of a massive fire. The company said it'll be out for the rest of the year.
Some industry experts worry that's a sign supply will remain tight and keep prices high, but the California Energy Commission is optimistic.
"The good news is the market has already adopted to that refinery not producing at normal levels, and gasoline demand between now and December will continue to decline," California Energy Commission spokesperson Gordon Schremp said.
McKeeman warns, though, these high prices we've seen lately may be the new norm in the coming months.
New global warming regulations and a low carbon fuel mandate taking effect may make drive prices back up.
"We're asking the Governor to take a time out on these regulations and to make sure we've studied them for all the potential price implications and unintended consequences," McKeeman said.
"Wild Bill" Hill is watching the market fluctuations in stride; he's been a gas miser for a long time.
His 1959 MesserSchmitt holds only 3 gallons, but it costs him just $13 to fill up last time.
"The gas mileage is right around 98 miles to the gallon, and I definitely appreciate it now that gas prices are sky high," Hill said.

MB 500 freak out Hey all, I recently bought an MB500 to use as a practice amp and for small jazz gigs. First time I used it was today at a big band rehearsal. It wasn't being pushed hard by any means but a few times it seemed to go into some kind of safety mode where the power light would flick from red to blue there was an audible click that went with it. I switched it to the Boost/Master B channel and that worked fine for a while, but then that started doing the same thing. I got this amp used. It seemed fine when I checked it out at the store, and I got it way louder in the store than I did at rehearsal with no problems. Any thoughts? I think I can still return it, and I probably will, but I'm just wondering if this is a common problem. I couldn't find other reports of this happening with a brief search through the forums. Thanks |
If you are not running an improper load (like a 4 and 8 ohm or two 4 ohm cabs) and your speaker cables are good (no intermittent shorts) I would return the amp head. Other than cab/cable problems you might try a different plug incase the circuit you plugged into is faulty. |
Is the fan turning on? A tiny dot of white paint on the hub of the fan will make it easy to see. |
Cable should be fine, and a guitarist was running an Accoustic Image guitar amp on the same plug without problems. =( I was hoping this head would be really sweet. I've been using my rack mounted pre/power separate rig for everything but it is a pain to haul around to campus and small church and jazz gigs. |
Just remembered something that could be important! When the bass was plugged in, there was a whistling noise... very faint, not noticeable while the bass was playing, but it sounded like a tea kettle boiling, only way quieter. That could have been the fan, since this amp has a variable fan. |
hmmm... Same thing happened to a buddy of mine onstage and I ran up there (while he was playing) and turned down the GAIN while turning up the MASTER. Seemed to work. He's an old school rocker who hits the string hard so I figured he was overloading the pre-amp section. The guy who owned the amp was a much lighter player so he didn't have the problem. They shared the amp that night. |
Tried that. It seemed to work at first, but then it just kept doing the same clicky safety thing. |
Call GK... They have been helpful for me a few times over the years. |
Sometimes adding another speaker cab can do the trick but I don't know what you're using. If the amp is going into safety mode, it usually means you're trying to get more volume/low end out of a setup that's reached it's max. With a single cab you may be reaching that limit sooner than you would with two cabs or a cab loaded with two (or more) good drivers. What kind of can and how many ohms? The MB800 powers back up (3 seconds) with a -10db (or -15db) on the pre-amp side when this happens. |
I was using an Eden 112 4ohm cab, but I really wasn't pushing this amp. I wasn't even playing when it started doing it. Very odd. |
The only bass that ever clipped my old GK 700RB was my Spector Euro, which has a HOT Aguilar pre-amp in it. I kept the volume (on the bass at 75) percent to aleviate the problem. |
Word. I'll try my Epi 410 tomorrow I guess, but I can't believe the amp was really getting a clip-worthy signal... There were two upright basses played through it tonight, Realist pickups, nothing really hot, and the volume was super tame. |
The first series of this has amp has known issues similar to what you are describing. It has been detailed extensively on TB. The second series update addressed the issue. My MB500 works fine. Since you bought it used you may have one of the defective units. Call GK. I understand they are good about supporting their products. |

"Good location, ok service, VERY old & worn-out!"
The front desk was great and parking/safe factor was pretty good, but the state of the room was very uncomfortable. It smelled funny, and things were just very worn out.

Towel bar was broken. Holes in bathroom doors. No coffee maker. Had to ask for that and coffee. Towels were so rough they could scrape your skin off. Bathtubs were stained and had been there for as long as the motel. Other room that made it a suite had the door unlocked and unchained.

It smelled bad, had boards hammered in under the toilet, and the sinks ceramic was busted, with a 2" rusted spot. The plastic vertical blinds were torn and dirty.

We also bought blankets for the beds to sleep on because we where not comfortable sleeping in the sheets that where provided. The beds where horrible. One of the beds when you sat on it you would sink almost to the floor. We also kept shoes by the bed to slip on so that we would not walk on the carpet with our bare feet.

Despite my cringing when I see or hear the words CEO and business, Bill Hammond is correct. I've long posted on here about inadequate school funding which he disputes. I disagree. Money is, always will be, a factor in first class public education. So we should not interpret Mr. Hammond's article as a green light to start chopping the education budget again. Instead, let's create a temporary panel of people in Texas to study other states' and countries' successes in education, and incorporate those ideas here that are appropriate and most likely will work. If that includes building more neighborhood schools to lower class sizes so be it. If it means a tougher accountability system for teachers and reducing administrators so be it. Texas has been a laughing stock for too long when it comes to education. The facts are in the research. Texas' rank among the 50 states has been in the middle to upper thirties for at least 15 years. That's mediocre. Are we going to continue to settle for that? Governor Perry and the legislature should be sent a very clear message. Texas' public educational system is approaching a fork in the road. It's a matter of which way our legislators and citizens wish to go: an old mediocre path or onto a fast forward lane of discovery and success. Mr. Hammond spelled it out. Now is the time to begin the changes required to compete with the rest of America and the world.

The National Electrical Manufacturers Association and its members who manufacture electric motors - along with the Appliance Standards Awareness Project and several other groups - asked the U.S. Department of Energy to establish new and more robust energy efficiency standards for the types of electric motors used in commercial and industrial applications such as pumps, conveyors, and fans. DOE was mandated to review motor efficiency to make a determination on increased efficiency requirements by the end of 2012. The August 15 petition asks that the standards, if adopted by the end of 2012, be effective Jan. 1, 2015. Petitioners include: * American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) * Appliance Standards Awareness Project (ASAP) * Earthjustice, Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) * Alliance to Save Energy (ASE) * Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance * Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnerships * Northwest Power and Conservation Council The petition comes as a result of two years of discussions among the groups. In addition to energy savings, petitioner recommendations to reduce exemptions will simplify enforcement and severely limit opportunities to evade regulations. The petition increases standards for some motors and significantly increases the scope of motors that will now be covered by efficiency standards. A DOE analysis indicates the new standards would save about 4.4 quadrillion Btus of energy by 2044. The standards recommended will also save motor purchasers more than $18 billion over that span.

All eyes on Hertl at Rogers Arena
Trick-shot phenom, the youngest player to score four goals in game since 1988, faces the Canucks Thursday
Daniel Sedin did it as a seasoned veteran to cap a memorable hat-trick performance in the 2009-10 regular-season finale to help clinch the NHL scoring title for Henrik Sedin.
Tomas Hertl did it as a wide-eyed rookie Tuesday to cap a four-goal outburst and become an instant YouTube trick-shot sensation with more than 100,000 views within hours of sparking the San Jose Sharks to a 9-2 rout of the New York Rangers.
Purposely placing the puck between the legs and snapping a shot over a stunned stopper is usually part of the shootout circus, not a regular rush. While Daniel Sedin and Hertl have demonstrated the manoeuvring and moxy required to execute the shot, what the 19-year-old Prague native has accomplished through three games will command the spotlight Thursday at Rogers Arena. He leads the NHL with six goals in three games and is the youngest player to score four goals in a game since Jimmy Carson had four for the Los Angeles Kings on March 30, 1988.
If that isn't enough to contemplate for the Vancouver Canucks, they haven't beaten the Sharks in 10-straight games — the last triumph a 4-1 win at Rogers Arena on Jan. 31, 2012 — and must be wondering how they're going to solve the well-balanced team.
And now there's the impressionable Hertl complementing Joe Thornton and Brent Burns on the top line. Hertl doesn't have a car and can't rent one because he's not 21. He idolizes countryman Jaromir Jagr and hopes to have more in common with the legendary winger than a big butt. The 17th overall selection in the 2012 draft speaks little English, but his play does the talking and the confidence he gained with Slavia Praha of the Czech Extraliga last season translated to the willingness to score that fourth goal Tuesday.
"That's pretty amazing," marvelled Daniel Sedin. "Such a young guy and you can see he has played with men back in Europe. He really skates well and has a bright future."
Added Canucks winger Jannik Hansen: "You score three goals in that game already, you feel like you can walk on water. It's still early. There's a transition and those dark days of December, January and February will be the real test for him on long road trips. That's where experience pays off."
That said, Thornton pointed out what may set this Sharks team aside to finally produce a Stanley Cup championship. Despite Raffi Torres [knee surgery], Martin Havlat [shoulder surgery] and Adam Burish [lower body] being sidelined, the Sharks have experience, youth, speed and depth. They can confidently ice three rookie forwards (.20-year-old Mattew Nieto also scored Tuesday). It's why Hertl is playing with the big boys, even with a language barrier.
"He's learning every day," said Thornton. "He has a booklet of English sayings and he's trying. And he's going to teach us some Czech.
"He's big and strong and fits in well."
The Canucks were strong in the first 10 minutes of their season opener in San Jose on Oct. 3. Chris Higgins drew a slashing minor and Jason Garrison wired a power-play slapshot from the high slot. The Canucks then turned the puck over, lost momentum and fell 4-1. And even though they've been impressive with back-to-back overtime comeback victories, playing catch-up against the 3-0-0 Sharks will be tough because they lead the league in goals with 17.
With Thornton, Joe Pavelski and Patrick Marleau down the middle and Logan Couture part of the evolving new leadership group, the re-set in San Jose is real.
"I don't know if we've had this depth in my time here," said Sharks coach Todd McLellan. "It can't leave anybody comfortable and motivates our group early."
Pushing the pace has pushed the Canucks to three straight wins, but sustainability will be the test. Mike Santorelli has earned the right to skate with the Sedins but in their own zone there must be better cohesiveness. The steadiness of Jason Garrison should help Dan Hamhuis better acclimate to a new system, while Kevin Bieksa plays with the improving Alex Edler.
"We have to be aggressive and eliminate the turnovers," stressed Garrison. "You do that in the neutral zone and they come at you with a lot of speed and make you pay for it."
Maybe John Tortorella put it best about what others would call a statement game or measuring stick.
"I don't believe in the measuring stick," said the Canucks coach. "It's such a long year and so many things happen. It's not measuring yourself up against another team — it's what you're doing as a club. I have not watched one other team. I don't believe in counter-punching, I believe in inflicting and trying to play your style."
OF NOTE — Sharks defenceman Brad Stuart has been suspended three games for an illegal check to the head of Rick Nash on Tuesday.

Tomas Hertl didn't just drop the puck between his legs Tuesday night and score, he actually put it top shelf over Martin Biron's right shoulder. Don't ask how he did it. It's pretty much impossible. (Hmmm, double-jointed?)

Favorite Activities: Sitting on the front porch reading, relaxing, and watching for loons. Cook outs with family. Watching the grandchildren fish and swim. Country walks, photography, and ping pong. Comments: We had another wonderful stay filled with many happy family memories. Colby Cottage is a very special place filled with everything you would need. We look forward every year to our vacation on Upper Baker Pond. We enjoy sitting on the front porch, breathing the fresh country air, as we take in the beautiful view. Life slows down for awhile, where the loons are calling, the birds are singing and the water and the mountains work their magic. We always feel refreshed and restored when we leave here.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Favorite Activity: Kayaking, swimming and sitting on the porch. Comments: We've thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Sitting on the porch with our coffee, looking across the pond is just so relaxing. The kitchen is so well equipped we've been able to stay in and cook, eating our meals outside overlooking the pond. Thank you Buddy and Lynne, you have been wonderful, warm hosts.

This colorful salad is a slightly changed recipe I got from Epicurious.com. It's great for potlucks or outdoor eating.

It's been more than two years since Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker signed a bill stripping collective bargaining rights from most public employees. The new law sparked massive protests at the Wisconsin State Capitol because many saw it as an attack on unions.
While most demonstrators eventually went away, a small group did not. They arrive at the building most weekdays to sing anti-Walker and pro-union songs.
On a recent day, more than 100 people were gathered in a circle on the Capitol lawn, tapping cowbells and singing a localized version of "This Land Is Your Land."

In the past couple of weeks, several major companies — Samsung, Sony, Qualcomm — have announced they will release smart watches this fall. As the name suggests, the gadgets do more than keep time.
The latest spate of computerized watches promise to do everything from working as a phone to taking photos and fielding emails. Smart watches have actually been around for a long time, but they've never really taken off as a product.

It's been five years since Lehman Brothers collapsed and touched off a banking crisis that is still being felt by the global economy. Today, the banking industry is a lot stronger than it was, but some critics say efforts to reform banking regulations have fallen short of their potential.

Perhaps one of the most uncomfortable things a doctor has to tell patients is that their medical problems are iatrogenic. What that means is they were caused by a doctor in the course of the treatment.
Sometime these iatrogenic injuries are accidental. But sometimes, because of the limits of medical technology, they can be inevitable. Now, a medical researcher in Seattle thinks he has a way to eliminate some of the inevitable ones.

Native American tribes gave up millions of acres to the federal government in the 19th century in exchange for promises of funded health care, education and housing. But time and again, those funds have been cut.
The recent across-the-board federal budget cuts, known as sequestration, are no exception. They came with a 5 percent reduction in funding for mental health services, including suicide prevention. That's especially troubling for Native Americans, whose suicide rate are four times the national average.

''My Wife Is an Actress'' was shown as part of this year's New Directors/New Films series. Following are excerpts from Elvis Mitchell's review, which appeared in The New York Times on March 29; the full text is online at nytimes .com/movies. The film, in French with English subtitles, opens today in Manhattan.
''I love the movies,'' says John (Terence Stamp) in the writer and director Yvan Attal's noisily enjoyable romantic comedy ''My Wife Is an Actress.'' It's obvious that Mr. Attal, who also stars in the film, loves the movies, too; he has made a terrifically deft picture about the thick line that separates movie glamour from the real world, and the thin line between common sense and paranoia.
It might be better to look upon ''Actress'' as the latest version of a much-unremarked-upon subgenre: the jealousy comedy. Mr. Stamp as John, a British movie star with the saturnine self-possession and silken purr of a tomcat warming itself in front of a fireplace, is the bête noire of Yvan (Mr. Attal), or rather, bête grise, with a flattering though receding lawn of snow-white hair.
