Rick Nielsen
Rick Nielsen
One of rock's most colorful and wacky characters is Cheap Trick's guitarist and main songwriter, Rick Nielsen. With his zany stage outfits not usually associated with rock & roll (a sweater, bow tie, baseball hat, etc.) and an unending army of guitars -- his most famous one being a mammoth five-neck instrument, Nielsen is a true original. Born on December 22, 1946, in Rockford, IL, Nielsen became hooked on rock & roll via the British Invasion (Beatles, Stones, Who, Kinks), taking up the guitar shortly thereafter. One of his early bands, Fuse, secured a record deal in the late '60s, issuing a single album for Epic in 1969, before splitting up. But Nielsen wasn't going to give up on his rock & roll dreams so easy, as he and Fuse's former bassist, Tom Peterson, formed another band, Sick Man of Europe, and traveled the same continent they were now named after. When their quest of Europe didn't end in a record deal like they hoped, the duo returned to Illinois and looked to start up another band, while Nielsen became fixated on such power pop outfits as the Move, the Raspberries, and Badfinger, which would be the musical direction of their next project: Cheap Trick. Drummer Bun E. Carlos was enlisted soon after, as was a singer named Xeno, the latter replaced by Robin Zander by 1974.

Some of My Favorite Friends Are Trees – Part 2
Ok, so I admitted it in my last post – some of my favorite friends are trees. But please, if you're one of human friends, don't take it too personally. I have separate categories for my "friends" and the human category comes before the non-human.
My second most favorite tree is the red maple (acer rubrum). It along with the sugar maple (acer saccharum) top the list of ornamental native maples prized for both the shade and fall color they provide. While sugar maples provides us with all that lovely sugar maple syrup, the species has been hard hit by acid rain, and you can find numerous examples of trees that have taken a real hit over the last few decades. However, the red maple is a hardy tree that can withstand all sorts of punishment.
The four I've planted on my property provide passive solar protection to my home and driveway by shading them during the summer heat, and letting the sun through during the winter months. Now some get confused when I talk about red maples and envision their crimson-colored cousins, the norway or crimson king maples. In fact, the red maple is named so because its stems are a bright red color. It's leaves in fact are green.
Of course the thing that is most attractive about the red maple is its fall foliage. While the sugar maples present a display of striking gold and orange, the red maple foliage is a combination of yellows, oranges, reds, and purples.

Mountain Crop Options for Northern Thailand
During my travels in Northern Thailand I was joined by others in assessing the micro and agricultural business opportunities for the Ahka people of Northern Thailand.
Until only a few years ago, there were not even roads leading to many of these villages, but a commitment on the part of King of Thailand (an avid agriculturalist himself) has lead to roads, electricity and communications systems being provided. In addition, the Thai government has invested a lot of time and effort to improve farming methods and opportunities for remote tribal peoples. However, many simply work as migrant tea harvesters. This does not provide enough to retain the youth of the communities, nor sustain their way of life.
I contacted an old friend Larry who has a couple of Ph.Ds in agriculture and has worked with various organizations including the Peace Corp in Honduras, Vietnam, Thailand, Bulgaria, and among the Navaho in the United States. In addition to being an astute biologist/horticulturalist, he has an amazing ability to quickly learn some of the world's most difficult languages. Currently Larry works as a consultant and educator with ECHO in Fort Myers, Florida.
I explained the situation to him and here is some of his response:
Actually, tea is a good long-term, sustainable crop. The Vietnamese almost always plant tea or coffee and high-value fruit crops to have a regular cash income (they pick and cash in tea each day, using the money to go to the market!). Then they look at new crops and agricultural systems to augment their lives.
The Royal Thai Government has had a number of agricultural programs in the hills introducing farmers to fruit crops, tea, coffee, rubber and now African oil palm. My friend Rick, located in the highlands, has a better handle on some of those details that might be appropriate for your folk.
Other crops to consider for sustainable living might include perennial vegetable crops such as katuk (pak wan baan, in Thai), pak wan bah, dtamleung (ivy gourd – grows wild in many places), shallots (hawm daeng), garlic (gratium), moringa (marung) and asparagus (naw-mai farang). In addition, a myriad of medicinal plants grown in the area.
Fruit is also a good investment, even though it seems everybody plants and sells strawberries in the north. However, another fruit to consider might include citrus, avocado, lichee, longan, jack fruit, bread fruit. It might be too cold, but if the temp stays above 40 degrees F, mangosteen and durian are good crops too. The small Chinese tangerine that is common right now in all the markets is one that is currently imported for the most part, but I think would do well as a crop produced here. It would probably be best to seed them and then graft them to local root stock.
I'd be interested if anyone else has thoughts, resources or suggestions.

Doug Tallamy – Why Insects Won't Eat Alien Plants
Last May I had the opportunity to hear Douglas Tallamy speak at Indiana Purdue Fort Wayne. The lecture was sponsored by the Little River Wetland Project, of which I'm a member, and focused attention on the need to plants that sorts of things that will sustain the eco-systems in your area.
Tallamy is currently Professor and Chair of the Department of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology at the University of Delaware in Newark, Delaware, where he has written more than 65 research articles and has taught insect taxonomy, behavioral ecology, and other subjects. Chief among his research goals is to better understand the many ways insects interact with plants and how such interactions determine the diversity of animal communities.
Doug won the Silver Medal from the Garden Writer's Association for his book, Bringing Nature Home.
Over the years, I've been guilty of putting out bird seed to attract birds and thinking the things such as butterflies bushes are what these "lepridopterae" to my garden. While seeds and succulents are edible and I suppose appreciated to some degree, the truth is that both bird seed and the nectar of flowering shrubs are more a "dessert" than the main course. What birds are most interested and attracted to are insects, and what butterflies seek is the proper habitat for reproduction. However, if your plantings are from Europe and Asia – good luck attracting either.
That said, it begins to make sense that non-native plantings do little for local insects, butterflies and birds. According to Tallamay, ecologists suggest three reasons most native insects cannot, or will not, eat alien plants.
- There is no such thing as a "random sampling" of plants that have been imported, but instead they represent a subset selected because of their unpalatability to insects. That is to say, we consumers go for the "pest free" versions.
- Second, it takes time – long evolutionary time spans rather than short ecological periods – for insects to adapt to the specific chemical mix that characterizes such plants.
- Third, native insects are specialist and tend to eat only plants with which they share an evolutionary history – the Monarch butterfly's dependance on milkweed serves as a prime example.
Of course the other problem with these foreign invaders is that they have been released from the constraints of their natural enemies and as such can outcompete most native plants. Some of the worst invaders in the Midwest include several honeysuckle species, autumn olive, privet, multiflora rose, burning bush, English ivy, Bradford pear, Japanese barberry and wisteria. Fortunately, enough people have become wise to the value of native plantings and so local garden centers are offering more and more options.

The Advantages of Native Plantings – A Good Read
For those of you who can't understand why your new plants always seem to be suffering, (or dying), and for those who wonder why destructive pests out number the butterflies you so desire, this is the book for you.
The authors lay the information out in encyclopedic style identifying non-native plants that are commonly found in the Midwest. Then they offer substitutes and explain their beneficial qualities including, what such plants might attract and resist. The book contains numerous photographs of plants, birds, insects and other creatures so identification is made simple.
The use of native plants ensures that what you've planted will actually thrive in your area. Native plants support the local birds, insects, and of course, those butterflies. Additionally, the improve air and water quality, reduce the need for pesticides, and provide vital food and reproductive sites for birds and insects.

The Tommaso Superleggera and Superleggera 1.0 is Tommaso's premium carbon bike with Shimano Dura-Ace. Some companies charge thousands of dollars more for a carbon Dura-Ace bike…does it make you wonder why? As Public enemy said: "Don't believe the hype!"
All the great Shimano components you could possibly want on a Tommaso at a price only Giantnerd can offer. It is the complete package with a carbon fork, stiffer than carbon FSA Gossamer crank, Tommaso Racing Series saddle and Shimano Dura-Ace components. How does Tommaso make bikes at such great deals? Easy, they don't expect customers to pay for the marketing budget of a pro tour team or over-hyped advertisements. At Tommaso Bicycles the employees do all the real world testing 365 days a year in house…well, on the road, the mountains, the trail, and the path. They sweat, race and bleed Tommaso! At Giantnerd we have online bike purchasing dialed. No more smug attitudes at the local bike shop because you don't feel the need to sell a kidney to buy a bike. Like they say at Tommaso: We want you to "Over Play" not "Over Pay!"
The Superleggera starts with a light and responsive race proven frame. The TRS monocoque frame and carbon fork with aluminum steer have been engineered to handle quick, float up mountains and carve down the other side. The Shimano 7800 Dura-Ace shifters are paired with the Shimano 7800 Dura-Ace rear derailleur and Shimano 6600 Ultegra front derailleur. The Shimano Dura-Ace STI controls allow for sure handed shifting and braking without removing your hands from the handlebars. The TRS Tommaso saddle has more padding on the saddle's pressure points to aid with comfort. The racy-sleek saddle was designed for those who ride long hours in the saddle, not just talk about them. The FSA Gossamer compact crank with external bottom bracket bearings is ideal for cyclist looking to get to the next level. This crank has won pro races on multiple continents! The 50/34 chainring combination on the crank is a slightly smaller gear for those of us that aren't racing the Tour de France this year. It enables the user to climb with less stress on the knees and joints while cruising quickly along the flats and descents. The compact crank makes for less complex shifting than a triple and is lighter.
The Tommaso Frame
The Tommaso Superleggera's foundation is a state of the art carbon frame that is the pinnacle of Tommaso's line. Tommaso uses a compact geometry and detailed tubing lengths per frame size. This ensures that the rider gets the lightest, strongest and best performing and fitting frame for the dollar. The compact design and geometry place the rider in the optimum position for steady handling and comfort. The Superleggera has a carbon fork to absorb he high-frequency buzz from the road. This means more miles of comfort and better handling.
Tommaso, and other big names in cycling, such as Giant, Specialized, Trek, Masi, and Felt to name a few, rely on compact geometry to best serve the needs of the customer. Compact geometry has a number of advantages for the rider. First of all, the phrase "compact geometry" is signifying that the top tube (the bar you stand over when not in motion) is sloped downward from the front to the rear of the bike. This enables the rider to get on and off the bike easily. Traditional frame geometry has a top tube that is parallel to the ground and harder to get a leg over. By sloping the top tube we get into the second benefit of the compact frame: With less material used in producing the frame a lighter frame can be produced. Third, the more material sitting lower on the bike the better the bike will handle. By lowering the center of gravity the bike wants to descend, corner and sprint better.
The Tommaso Fit
Sizing a compact bike is no different, or more difficult, than any other style of bike. By reviewing the size chart you will see a measurement called the "Eff Top Tube", also known as the Effective Top Tube Measurement. This is what the top tube would measure if it was parallel to the ground. It is an imaginary line the runs from the center of the head tube to the center of the seat tube if the seat tube was extended like a traditional frame. The size chart also lists suggested heights for the different frame sizes. This is far more helpful in sizing a bike than standing over the top tube and pulling up on the handlebars (which tells you nothing about the fit of a bike). Tommaso offers seven sizes to accommodate riders large and small. It will be easy to find a fit for all of our customers.
The stem can also be flipped and adjusted for a lower, back-friendly position to a more streamline position in minutes. The lower top tube keeps the center of gravity low and the makes for an easy approach to getting on the bike. This Tommaso bike was designed with the user's needs and comfort as the #1 priority.
The Tommaso Feel
Tommaso spent a lot of time on choosing what makes a bike enjoyable to ride. Tommaso upgraded the saddle to the lightweight and sleek TRS Racing saddle for added comfort. The handlebar wrap was chosen for its comfort and durability. The compact gearing is perfect for all of us wanting to ride the open road no matter if it goes up, down or flat. The lightweight Tommaso carbon frame and carbon fork will be great company for many, many miles.
There are plenty of carbon bikes on the market. Most manufacturer's use them to fill price points while focusing on the $6,000.00 dream machines that are given to the pro's (at the consumer's expense) or bikes that find their way into only a few garages. At Giantnerd our philosophy is simple: Ride, just ride. We want everyone to enjoy the experience and feel good about their bike. We realize that there are other things you will need while cycling and we keep prices low so you can get them all. What will you need? A helmet, spare tube kit, water bottles and cages, shorts, jersey and most of all the desire for adventure.

While the Washington Capitals' series against the New York Rangers was going on and Alex Ovechkin had a game without a shot, Marcus Johansson took a question about that to shoulder some of the blame for a lack of offense.
"I don't think I had a shot on net either. I have to be better, too. I have to help the team win," he said. "Whether it's scoring goals or blocking shots or whatever it is, we have to all do it together."
Johansson was similarly critical after the Caps' playoff run ended. His postseason was less than stellar with one goal, two assists and a minus-6 rating in 14 games.
He knew it.
"It was tough. We played 14 tough games and it was tough performing as you always want to do. Those 14 games were probably the 14 toughest games we ever played here," Johansson said Monday. "It was tough and I wish I maybe contributed more with scoring goals and stuff like that. You can't always be the goal-scorer in games like this. Most of the games it was one or two goals. It's tough to score and it's tough to do all that stuff."
Johansson often passed up opportunities to shoot the puck created with his speed. Perhaps that would have gone a long way toward solving what the 21-year-old thought was his biggest problem: "Putting the puck in the net."
"I think I had my chances and I could've scored more, maybe. You always try to see it as, as long as you get your chances you know you're not playing too bad," he said. "I think there obviously were some positive things. But obviously you always want to score more, and you want to do everything you can to help the team win. Scoring is a big thing for doing that."
Ex-coach Dale Hunter praised Johansson's speed while recognizing production wasn't there.
"He didn't get the scoring or the assists and stuff but he created opportunities because the D had to throw the puck around and we'd get opportunities from it," Hunter said.
But Johansson likes to score, too. And consistency in that department is something he'll need to improve on moving into his third NHL season.

Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather Spar Over Knicks Jeremy Lin
Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. may be reluctant to fight each other inside a boxing ring, but neither one opposes putting the other in his place on Twitter.
On Monday, Mayweather set the social media world on fire when he announced his somewhat negative opinion of New York Knicks superstar, Jeremy Lin. To hear Mayweather describe it, Lin is only being hyped by the media right now because he's Asian, not because he's had a historically great 10-day stretch. This was his tweet:
"Jeremy Lin is a good player but all the hype is because he's Asian. Black players do what he does every night and don't get the same praise."
We broke down why this tweet was partially right and partially wrong already, so there is no need to rehash that. Instead, let's fast forward to what Manny Pacquiao did on Tuesday. Undoubtedly -- though he'd probably never admit it -- in a direct response to his undefeated arch rival, the Filipino champion offered this tweet:
"God Bless Jeremy Lin."
Short, sweet and most importantly, timely. It's obviously no coincidence that Pacquiao has come to Lin's defense a day after Mayweather's unique commentary on the matter. The interesting question, though, is why Pacquiao is coming to Lin's defense. Is it because he's genuinely a fan of the Knicks' point guard and really wants to see him do well? Or is it because it's just another excellent opportunity to show up Mayweather while everyone is looking?
People will have their own theories on that, but this much is for certain: the feud between Mayweather and Pacquiao isn't dead just yet. Too bad they can't get it off the internet and into the ring.

To make yogurt:
- Pour 2 quarts of milk into a large pot. Heat milk slowly over a low flame until milk starts to foam at surface, but do not boil. Bring milk to about 180 degrees (F) and maintain this temperature for 5 minutes.
- Place 1-2 level teaspoons of a plain yogurt starter into an ovenproof container (although I use the lazy method with a yogurt maker). Add 2 tablespoons of your warm milk to the container and mix to create a smooth paste. Continue to add milk to the paste, stirring slowly until all the milk has been added.
- Place container with lid in oven near pilot light. If there is no pilot light, wrap the container in a thick towel and let stand for 8 hours. The yogurt maker essentially does the same thing.
In this batch of yogurt, I added vanilla beans and 2/3 cup of sugar cane crystals.
Make Your Own Yogurt illustrates clearly what you'll need and takes you through the steps to make yogurt.

sail-world.com -- French sailor rescued from Southern Ocean
French sailor rescued from Southern Ocean
Sun, 20 Jan 2013
Good news from the Southern Ocean,
An Australian Maritime Safety Authority aircraft, a Dornier, located 63 year French sailor Alain Delord in his liferaft on Friday night after receiving a distress signal from the Frenchman, who had abandoned his yacht after it was dismasted and the hull holed and now the sailor has been rescued.
Delord, an experienced yachtsman who has logged 27 TransAtlantic crossings, was on a single-handed voyage around the world and was south-west of Tasmania when the yacht lost its mast. In heavy seas, it seems that the jagged end of the mast holed the yacht, forcing Delord to abandon the boat and take to his liferaft.
The aircraft dropped a second liferaft, a survival suit, food and water, along with communication equipment to the yachtsman, with a translator assisting in communication with Delord, who apparently only speaks French.
An Australian based cruise ship, the PV Orion, 11 days into an 18 day Antarctic and sub-Antarctic cruise with about 100 passengers and 30 crew left Commonwealth Bay and headed north for some 50 hours to the reach the French sailor aboard a life raft around 500 nautical miles south of Tasmania.
The ship, equipped with inflatable Zodiac boats and an experienced crew capable of mounting a rescue despite reports of a seven metre swell and 50 knot winds.
Aboard the Orion is experienced Antarctic mariner Don McIntyre who is leading an expedition south. He wa been quoted in Hobart media as saying 'His biggest threat…will be the physical damage from the waves and hypothermia from the cold….hopefully he is wearing a survival suit.'
The ship reached Mr Delord about 9:30pm (AEDT) on Sunday night and soon after same the good news..
'I'm very pleased to confirm the solo sailor, who had been in a life raft in the Southern Ocean for the past three days, has been recovered by the cruise ship Orion and AMSA believes he is being taken to Hobart,' a AMSA spokeswoman said.

T.D. Jakes (a well-known preacher) was returning to Texas after a speaking engagement. When his plane arrived, there was a limousine there to transport him to his home in Dallas .
As he prepared to get into the limo, he stopped and spoke to the driver. "You know" he said, "I am almost 50 years old and I have never driven a limousine. Would you mind if I drove it for a while. The driver said, "No problem. Have a go at it.."
T.D. gets into the driver's seat and they head off down the highway. A short distance away sat a rookie state trooper operating his first speed trap . The long black limo went by him doing 70 in a 55 mph zone. The trooper pulled out and easily caught the limo and got out of his patrol car to begin the procedure.
The young trooper walked up to the driver's door and when the glass was rolled down he was surprised to see who was driving. He immediately excused himself and went back to his car and called his supervisor. He told the supervisor, "I know we are supposed to enforce the law but I also know that important people are sometimes given certain courtesies.
I need to know what I should do because I have stopped a very important person ." "The supervisor asked, "Is it the governor?" The young trooper said, "No, he's more important than that." The supervisor said, "Oh, so it's the president." The young trooper said, "No, he's even more important than that." The supervisor finally asked, "Well then, who is it?"The young trooper said, I think it's Jesus because he's got T. D. Jakes for a chauffeur!!!!!

No, it is not permitted. In 1987, the Rapid Transit Systems (RTS) Act was established by Parliament and it was declared that no food or drink was to be consumed in MRT trains and stations. If you do, you will be issued a notification of offence which carries a fine of up to $500.

If you are using the photographs and/or videos for your wedding, academic projects and/or any for profit purposes, please obtain our written consent before proceeding with your photography and/or filming.
You may send your request to email@example.com. Please state clearly the date, time, venue and purpose of your photography and/or filming session. Please note that we will need two weeks to review your request and to make the appropriate arrangements to facilitate the photography and/or filming.
Filming and photography can be done only on weekdays, excluding Public Holidays, and between 10am and 4pm. It must not cause inconvenience and/or danger to all SMRT staff and passengers, or hinder passenger movement within SMRT premises. In the event of any dispute, decisions and actions taken by our station and security staff shall be final.
Yes, if it is for personal use and all photographs and/or videos taken are not reproduced for public viewing or sharing. For more information, please write to email@example.com
Once every three weeks and once every six months for trains. The former focuses on general preventive maintenance comprising functional and visual checks of the aircon system, while the latter consists of detailed checks on aircon components.
If your bicycle is foldable, you may bring it on our trains and buses. It should be folded while on board. You are responsible for its safe carriage and must not leave it unattended at any time. Your bicycle should also be folded at all times in the MRT/LRT stations, and bus interchanges/terminals.
Railway sleepers are rectangular pieces of timber that support the rails upon which the train wheels sit. They transfer the load of the trains from the rails to the ballast, hold the rails upright and maintain the distance between the rails.
Sleepers are designed to last 15 to 25 years, and must be replaced when they show signs of wear and tear.
Our system was developed progressively since the 1980s, so many of these sleepers are due for replacement. The works have been scheduled to take place from November 2012 through December 2019. In keeping with our strict safety and maintenance regime, timber sleepers are also replaced when necessary to ensure safe and smooth travel for our commuters.
To minimise inconveniences, we will keep replacement works along most sections to no more than six to eight weeks.
SMRT will put in sound insulators to minimise the noise from the generator. Unfortunately, as tamping work is done in the open, the noise cannot be minimised.
Maintenance works on the tracks can only be carried out during non-passenger service hours. This is between 1 and 4.30am, after the last trains return to the depots and before the first trains depart the depots for the start of service.
As we need time to move and set up the machinery, we have only about 90 minutes each night to carry out the actual replacement works. We will make every effort to minimise the noise generated, and seek the understanding of residents affected by the works.
In the event train services are delayed or disrupted because we need more time to complete scheduled works, we will inform the public through notices at stations, our twitter account (@SMRT_Singapore), SMRTConnect, website.
All planned closures will also be publicised in advance.
Track maintenance is an important aspect of SMRT's rail operations, and it is done daily to ensure commuters can enjoy a safe and comfortable ride in our network.
In the last few years, we have significantly increased the number of train trips to meet commuters' demand for higher train frequency. This also means we have to step up track maintenance activities.
However, we assure residents living in affected vicinities that every effort is made to minimise inconvenience.
To check if there are track maintenance activities in your district this week, please click here for the latest schedule.
SMRT's MRT network consists of 257.8km of tracks, covering the North-South, East-West (NSEW) and Circle lines. About 74 per cent of tracks on the NSEW lines are above ground level, which means there is noise involved in maintenance works due to heavy machinery used.
Tracks can only be maintained after passenger service hours. Any maintenance during passenger service hours will disrupt service and inconvenience commuters. When the train network closes, our maintenance staff have less than four hours (between 1am and 4.30am) to complete these works.
We do a couple of things, mostly in preventive maintenance. In wheel profiling, we grind the wheels daily to maintain an even roundness and diameter for each wheel to allow the trains to travel smoothly and with less noise. Train wheels are also mounted with sound absorbers to reduce screeching sounds. One of the biggest contributors of track noise is uneven track surface. To rectify this, we use a Rail Grinding Vehicle to grind track surface for smoother and less noisy train operations. Typically, a section of a track is ground every six to 12 months.
A Rail Grinding Vehicle grinds track surface and helps reduce noise from train operations
Immediately after track grinding, the initial noise level will be louder as it takes a while for the new grinding marks on the track surface to smoothen out. To reduce inconvenience to residents, track grinding works in both directions along the affected particular sections are completed within a couple of days with minimal time lapse.
The commuter will be able to board the bus with the help of our Service Leader. Our Service Leader will do the following:
(a) Stop the bus closer to the kerb at the bus stop
(b) Allow other passengers on board to alight first
(c) Bring down the ramp at the exit door for the passenger-in-wheelchair to board the bus
(d) Ensure passenger-in-wheelchair is secured in his seat
(e) Help the passenger-in-wheelchair to tap his ez-link card or slot the fare into the coin box before stowing the ramp to its original position
Yes, our WABs may ply non-WAB service routes. Look out for the blue icon of a passenger-in-wheelchair displayed at the front of the bus. These decals will be removed from a WAB that is running on a non-WAB service route. There are a few ways that passengers can find out more about SMRT WAB services.
The new WABs have a low floorboard and flat surface in the front portion to facilitate the boarding of passengers-in-wheelchairs. Our WABs are also designed with a kneeling device that can lower the front entrance of the bus or the whole bus, making it easier for the elderly and less mobile to board.
Either Platform A, D or E. The operating hours are as follows:
Either Platform B or C. The operating hours are as follows:
Platform F. The operating hours are as follows:
Yes. Passengers on wheelchairs or who are less mobile can access the platforms via the concourse level lifts.

I rather like this roadmap for emerging technologies. One day I fully intend to find out what "arcologies" are.
Advocacy's long and winding road
As citizens continue to play a critical role in supplying news and human rights footage from around the world, YouTube is committed to creating even better tools to help them. According to the international human rights organization WITNESS' Cameras Everywhere report, "No video-sharing site or hardware manufacturer currently offers users the option to blur faces or protect identity."
YouTube is excited to be among the first.
Today we're launching face blurring – a new tool that allows you to obscure faces within videos with the click of a button.
Advocacy in any arena generally takes a long long time. In this context we're talking about pressuring key Silicon Valley companies that have gone in under a decade from being simple technology providers to being an integral part of everyday human activity across much of the planet.
That one line quoted above was something we'd been talking to YouTube/Google about for 4 years (and that's more than half of YouTube's own existence). Those who can make seemingly simple changes like this happen are busy people operating within multiple sets of interlocking wheels of law and policy, and myriad competing internal demands. The conversations with these people started before I got to WITNESS, and they continued after I left in mid-2010 (and continue to this day) – and as the Cameras Everywhere report shows, there's still plenty to discuss in the future.
Here are my personal recollections and reflections on how the conversations with YouTube that I was involved in developed – with the accent strongly on "personal". Since I left WITNESS 2 years ago, I'm not party to the latest conversations between YouTube and WITNESS – but I do know where the seeds came from and how they took root. Over at the WITNESS blog Sam Gregory explains the human rights dimension of this move by YouTube.
I am sharing this therefore partial account in the hope that reading a little about our experience will give succour to other activists and researchers running into what seem like brick walls right now. Keep talking, keep trusting, and keep pushing… and embrace serendipity.
[Thurs 19 July - I've slightly clarified some of the written-at-1.30am-language...]
[Sun 22 July - further clarification, including of when I left WITNESS.]
[UPDATED] Posts on Facial Recognition at WITNESS
Head on over to the WITNESS blog, where you'll find my new post on the ethics of facial recognition. I'll post a slightly different version here over after the weekend, with a bit more detail in a couple of areas.
UPDATE (July 2012):
I'm not sure when time will permit, as I've been fairly consumed with completing my freelance work, and then moving to my new job at OSF, but I'll endeavour to post all the resources I collected related to face recognition and human rights, as I hope they'll be of use to other researchers and advocates in the field. In the meantime, quite a few of the resources I found I linked to from these two posts:
The Ethics of Face Recognition Technology (March 7th, 2012)
Tactical and Technological Defences for Face Recognition Technology (May 18th, 2012) – and this was also posted in a slightly amended form by PBS MediaShift (18th June 2012).
UK television and the developing world
As part of its UK Public Opinion Monitor research, which aims to track the UK public's attitudes towards development, the Institute of Development Studies at Sussex recently released this 10-minute film pleading for better coverage by UK television of the developing world, and of issues related to poverty:
The film revisits arguments advanced over many years by the International Broadcasting Trust (IBT), One World Media (formerly the One World Broadcasting Trust), POLIS, and other civil society groups. [Five years ago, I wrote and researched IBT's report, Reflecting the Real World 2, on how new media were impacting on UK TV's coverage of the developing world.] These groups have consistently put forward the arguments – based on research they conduct and commission, and on interviews they conduct with senior decision-makers in the UK media – that coverage of the developing world by UK broadcast television is weak, and tends to focus on crisis, corruption, and conflict, in both news and other TV genres. They argue that this has serious implications both on how genuinely informed the UK public can be about large swathes of the wider world, and therefore on how constructive domestic public debate and opinion can be about why we give aid, to whom, and on what basis.
It's encouraging that a serious institution like IDS is interested in addressing these issues. So why does the film itself leave me so disappointed – and what might they have done differently?
Privacy holes in the app economy
The tech world has finally woken up to the safety and privacy risks in the app economy. Path's silent address book mining sparked widespread outrage, and has had ripples for lots of web services and mobile apps that had, until now, seen as "industry best practice" the long-term retention and mining of customers' contacts (UPDATE: more on Big Tech's repeated privacy stumbles - including privacy-trashing kids' apps – from the New York Times' Nick Bilton). In the report I led for WITNESS last year, Cameras Everywhere, we pinpointed these practices as a massive potential vulnerability for human rights activists and for citizens and consumers more broadly (see p.27, Recommendation 2) . We specifically suggested that technology companies should take this stewardship seriously, and:
Follow the principle of privacy by design, and for products already in circulation, privacy by default. This is particularly important for products, apps and services that share this data with third parties that may not exercise the same diligence.
This might include revising the terms under which app developers can participate in App Stores for different platforms – for example, by issuing new guidelines requiring that third-party developers follow industry-class privacy practices – or it could even involve providing app developers with off-the-shelf privacy solutions directly. (WITNESS itself is a partner in ObscuraCam and InformaCam, Android apps that demonstrate privacy and human rights-sensitive ways to handle data, particularly visual data, generated by mobile phones.) Many app developers creating iOS, Android or other apps are small shops that have few staff, and no legal or privacy counsel to help them navigate tricky waters. What's more, they are scattered in many jurisdictions that have extremely varied data protection laws and requirements. Frankly, it's a no-brainer that they need help and guidance. (Update: I want to thank publicly Jules Polonetsky of the Future of Privacy Forum for pointing us along this path of inquiry during a research interview for Cameras Everywhere. Very exciting to see that he is involved in driving forward better industry-wide practices with the Application Privacy Summit in April 2012.)
We have made the argument for greater privacy protections in the app economy publicly and in private to the major technology companies, as well as app developers, VCs and policy-makers – we felt that it's a central and intimate issue not just to activists, but to any and all users. We didn't get much traction – we're not technologists, and maybe the solutions we outline are inelegant or technically problematic, but that doesn't mean the problem is a phantom one.
I hope that this recent upsurge in attention and scrutiny provides a window for companies like Apple, Google, Amazon, Twitter and Blackberry to realise that the concern is a real one (just as Apple did with mobile tracking data, for example), and to re-examine how their app ecosystems work. Ultimately, they need to take more responsibility for their app users' privacy and safety, even if those apps are designed and built by third-parties elsewhere in the world – after all, only they really have the leverage, authority and know-how to make the app economy a safer place for us all.

OK, I can understand your frustration because it is not easy.
I am just trying to get people to study the techniques because
you learn more by doing it yourself and looking at the results
when you see an mtDNA report.
When you get a blast result, click on the accession number or:
Go to
(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?db=nucleotide&cmd=search&term) =
Then enter one of the accession numbers you already know,
EF657289 from Herrnstadt.
You will only see one report come up as CoreNucleotide records.
Click on it.
If it is the completed report, it will show authors, journal
articles etc.
Scroll down to the bottom of the results.
Note that the nucleotides end with
number 15446 or so.
You were interested in knowing whether
this person had 16235, 16291, 16293 and
16400 mutations. Those numbers are not
there at all, so it looks like the HVR1 was
not reported, correct? You basically need to
just know that the HVR2 are numbers at the
beginning of the report, and HVR1 are numbers
at the end. If you see numbers in the sequence
missing, then you know the sequence is incomplete
even if the title says it is complete.
Most complete mitochondria will have about
16569 or more base pairs listed.
Ian tries to determine the haplogroup and
subhaplogroups whenever possible.
Hope this helps!

I would hope if anything like that were implemented here, the tax revenue from junk would be applied to decreasing the price of healthy options. While a bag of potatoe chips may be a ****ty snack and a sin tax of sorts would discourage its purchase, lots of american families simply can't afford lean meats, fruits, veggies and whole grains at every meal and snack time and increasing the price of cheaper alternatives to dissuade purchase will only remove food from tables where it's a struggle to provide enough calories, let alone worry about macros, sodium and additives in general.
Taxing impoverished overweight and unhealthy people with terrible diets is never going to solve anything. This is a war of ideas, and diets will not change until you win the mind.
Don't compromise with legislators if this comes up in your state or nation. Zero tolerance for tax on food!
Think about how this could spill over into supplements. All the sudden you're paying double for D Aspartic Acid because some idiot says it gave him gyno on Dr. Oz.
Food taxes will never work, it comes down to reeducation. Our last few generations have been told you don't have time to cook, just buy pre made and reheat, and with each new generation that way of thinking is just getting stronger.
Me and my wife spend tops 300 bucks a months on groceries, barely any of that money goes to pre made foods(I buy bread). We both work full time so on my day off I cook large dinners and we eat that throughout the week. Every two weeks we go produce shopping at a market 15 min from home, we spend 50 bucks and get 2 to 3 time the amount of produce you can at a big box store. I say this not to ramble but to explain healthy eating can be done, it just takes an extra 2 to 3 hours of your weeks. Get off Facebook grab a real cookbook (no stupid celeb chefs) and learn how to eat right.

Was there lots of breathing when everyone was trying to sleep? I love that book! Are you going to do a post about Lorraine's flowers? I'm curious about what she has growing :)

Ann~ the nice thing about our visit to Gramps & Grams is that we all tend to have our own rooms (well, some double up) so no hearing other people breathing, thank goodness! Yes, I'm planning to do a post about what she has growing, although she says her flowers are the pits this year. I disagree. They've had weird weather.

What fun! I love the big relative get togethers although ours are considerably smaller considering I have no relatives outside of Hungary. LOL. It's just my sis and her family and then Hubby's sis and husband and maybe one of their kids with their family. Oh well, it's still fun. I think every family needs an aunt Veronica!
I am so jealous over your gorgeous deck, breezeway and huge yard. So awesome and the perfect place to host your relatives. - 7/29/2010

That would be my in-laws gorgeous deck and big huge yard, not mine. You're right, it's the perfect place to host large get-togethers.

It looks like you guys had way too much fun! I don't think I've ever been to a family get together that involves dancing - jealous! That pasta salad looks divine! I'll have to look online for it.
