Worker at prison fired, rehired, after horse incident
An agricultural worker assigned to rehabilitate abused horses at the Second Chance Large Animal Rehabilitation Facility at the men's prison annex in Niantic was fired last year after it was alleged that she mishandled and injured a horse and didn't report the incident.
Francesca Cintolo has since been rehired after entering into a stipulated agreement in August negotiated by the Office of Labor Relations between herself, her union and the state. She returned to her job at The Second Chance Ranch at the Niantic Annex in December.
Neither Cintolo nor her union representative Bill Kluytenaar could be reached to comment.
According to an investigation conducted by the state Department of Administrative Services, fellow agricultural worker Tanya Wescovich sent a text message to her supervisor, Raymond Connors, on Sept. 26, 2011 informing him that she had received complaints from inmates that a day earlier, Cintolo was rough with a horse named Cinnamon.
The inmates said she used excessive force with a chain lead, which is placed around the horse's muzzle, while attempting to spray flies off the animal.
Wescovich noted that there were visible marks and missing hair on the horse's muzzle.
Wescovich said inmates had told her previously that they thought Cintolo was rough with the horses, but nothing could be proven, the investigation report said.
Connors, a state animal control supervisor, was interviewed for the investigation. He said he went to the facility later on Sept. 26 and saw marks on Cinnamon's muzzle.
Connors said it is common practice to use a chain lead to discipline a horse, but it should never leave a mark or harm the horse.
He contacted a veterinarian who determined the marks were "consistent with excessive use of force."
Cintolo was interviewed on Oct. 5 and Oct. 21.
She said that on Sept. 25, an inmate, Don LeVasseur, said that he couldn't clean Cinnamon's back feet because flies were all over the horse and she kept stomping her back feet.
Cintolo said she would get the fly spray. She said she went into the stable and put a lead rope on the horse, but she couldn't control her while spraying her, and the horse slammed her against the fence.
In the second interview, Cintolo she said she was afraid the horse was going to run her over. She told LeVasseur to get the chain lead.
Cintolo said Cinnamon was trying to run out of the stable and she was holding onto the lead rope. She said perhaps the horse injured herself from a pinch from the chain or by striking the door of the stall.
Several inmates were interviewed. They said they did not see Cinnamon slam Cintolo, nor did they see the horse try to run out of the stall.
LeVasseur also said he mentioned to Cintolo that Cinnamon did not liked to be fly sprayed.
"Mr. LeVasseur said he told Angie that the chain had drew blood and her response was that's how you train a horse," the report said.
Cintolo did not record the incident in a log book, as required. She told investigators she didn't do it because the injury was minor and the horse was eventually brought under control.
The investigation found that Cintolo did use excessive force and caused the lesions on the horse and noted that because she did not log the incident, it made it appear as though "she was attempting to hide the incident."
Cintolo was fired in April and immediately filed a grievance through her union, Connecticut Employees Union Independent, Local 511. Her employment with the agency was reinstated in August.
In the stipulated agreement, her dismissal was reduced to a 15-day suspension for neglect of duty. The time between the end of her suspension and her return to work was designated as authorized leave without pay.
Linda J. Yelmini, director of the Labor Relations, said her agency found the firing was excessive punishment. She said her office determined that Cintolo did not receive adequate training to deal with the type of horses placed in the program.
As part of the agreement, Cintolo agreed not to sue the state or its representatives.
Bruce A. Sherman, director of the Bureau of Regulation and Inspection at the Department of Agriculture, disputes the charge that Cintolo didn't have adequate experience.
"... Experience plays heavily into our decision on whether we hire someone," said Sherman. "At the time she was hired, it appeared she had a lot of experience working around horses, even the younger horses. Something like judgment and rapport with the animals is something you have and has nothing to do with the lack of training."
Sherman said the department is in the process of working with the University of Connecticut Department of Animal Science's equine program to provide training for the workers at the ranch.
He said that there are currently six horses and one sheep at the ranch. The agency partners with UConn in its Agriculture Annual Spring Horse Auction to find homes for the animals. Cinnamon has since been placed in a new home.
Sherman said the agency does everything in its power to ensure that the animals at the ranch are treated properly, and that is why it decided to take action against Cintolo. He also noted that the Department of Agriculture did not sign the stipulated agreement but had to abide by it.
"They're supposed to have a safe haven, and we try everything in our power to do that," said Sherman. "... It's a really good program."

There is a swimmer in our pool whose appearance is "dreaded" by many of us. As soon as she enters your lane and starts her laps, the whole lane gets slowed down for a at least an hour, because, #1, she never stops and never give a chance to others when she's at the end of the pool and is going for another lap while another swimmer had been waiting to start; #2, whenever she encounters someone during the laps (whether in the same or opposite direction), she would continue as if others don't exist, as if it's her own lane and as if she's thinking "get out of my way please"; #3, and that's the most important point: she's slower than all the others in the lane. So everyone else has to slow down because the lane is not so wide, and from time to time you see people try everything they could to get around her, or backstrokers hitting her from behind (and she would still go on like you were just a fly).
She usually continues like this for at least one hour, could be 90 minutes. She probably has her rule in mind, to never stop during the lap. That's fine as many of people here do that, but that works only if your speed is comparable to the others sharing the lane.
What's the best way to deal with such a fellow swimmer?

FedEx Corp. said Thursday that it has agreed to buy businesses operated by its current service provider in five Southern African countries. Financial terms were not disclosed.
The deals cover Supaswift (Pty) Ltd.'s operations in South Africa, Malawi, Mozambique, Swaziland and Zambia. FedEx said it's also in talks to buy Supaswift's businesses in Botswana and Namibia.
The acquired businesses will operate under the FedEx Express business unit, FedEx said.
The deal will give FedEx Express direct access across the seven markets to 39 facilities.
About 1,000 of Supaswift's workers will join FedEx, the company said.
FedEx said the acquisition will give customers greater access to some of the world's most rapidly growing economies and strengthen its FedEx Express operations.
Supaswift started operations in South Africa in 1990. In 2005, it combined with MyExpress Pty Ltd., which had been offering FedEx Express international services in Southern Africa since 1991.
The acquisition announcement comes a day after FedEx announced a better-than-expected fiscal fourth-quarter profit, but issued disappointing guidance for the current year.
Tennessee is a strong manufacturing state, but limited by the relatively low level of educational achievement, according to a new report from Ball State University.
The 2013 Manufacturing and Logistics Report Card, an in-depth analysis from Ball State's Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER), grades all 50 states on factors that lead to success.
"The continuing story in the states of Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee and Kentucky are the persistent low levels of educational attainment, which plague the expansion of highly productive firms," said Michael Hicks, CBER director and an economics professor at Ball State.
Tennessee saw improvement in the tax climate and the expected liability gap – unfunded bond and pension liabilities to help pay for infrastructure and provide pensions and health care for workers, Hicks said. Those two improvements suggest Tennessee could see improved manufacturing prospects, but "quality limitations of the workforce" remains an issue.
Tennessee received B grades in manufacturing, expected liability gap, global reach and sector diversification; B+ in logistics and worker benefit costs; C in tax climate; C- in productivity and innovation; and D- in human capital.
A new historical marker noting the 1865 explosion and sinking of the steamboat Sultana has been dedicated in Mississippi River Park Downtown.
The marker, dedicated earlier this month by the Shelby County Historical Commission replaces one stolen several years ago. Like the earlier one in what was then Jefferson Davis Park, the new marker was financed with private money raised by attorney, historian and author Jerry Potter. Andrew Carroll, a historian and author from Washington, joined Potter in the fundraising effort.
The nearby cobblestones on the city's riverfront were the last port for the Sultana in April 1865 as it made its way from Vicksburg, Miss., severely overcrowded with Union soldiers just released from Confederate prison camps.
Just north of Memphis, one of the Sultana's boilers that had been repaired in Vicksburg exploded and the wooden boat caught fire. More than 1,500 people died in a maritime disaster rivaling the death toll in the sinking of the Titanic in 1912.
The disaster filled Memphis hospitals with the wounded. But nationally, the end of the Civil War and the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln that same month obscured the event.
Potter's 1992 book, "The Sultana Tragedy," is a definitive account of the disaster and the investigations that followed.
The earlier marker disappeared after it was first removed from its post and fell to the river's edge.
Memphis-based creative agency Bigfish is holding a free meet up later this month to discuss the findings from a recent study it undertook of local medical websites, in which Bigfish found that most were not optimized for the new Web ecosystem of social interactions, personalization and mobility.
The meet up Wednesday, June 26, will offer solutions for how to fix those issues and ideas about how to achieve a social website. The one-hour gathering is open to the public but geared toward medical practices, hospitals, health groups and nonprofit organizations.
Among a variety of other services, Bigfish specializes in consulting on social media strategies for health care providers.
To register for the meet up, visit www.gobigfishgo.com/hcsm.
Applications for U.S. unemployment benefits rose by 18,000 last week to a seasonally adjusted 354,000. Despite the gain, the level remains consistent with moderate job growth.
The Labor Department said Thursday that the less volatile four-week average increased by 2,500 to 348,250.
Applications are a proxy for layoffs. Since January, they have fallen 6 percent. That suggests companies are cutting fewer jobs.
At the same time, hiring has been steady, despite an increase in taxes on Jan. 1 and steep federal spending cuts that began in March. Solid consumer spending and a rebound in housing have helped the economy weather the fiscal drag.
Jennifer Lee, an economist at BMO Capital Markets, said the increase in applications makes it less likely that hiring will accelerate this month but job growth remains moderate.
Employers added 175,000 jobs in May, nearly matching the average monthly gain for the past year.
The unemployment rate ticked up to 7.6 percent from 7.5 percent, but for a good reason: More Americans were confident they could find work and began searching for a job.
The Federal Reserve on Wednesday offered a brighter outlook for the job market and economy. Chairman Ben Bernanke said the Fed is likely to reduce its bond purchases later this year and end them in the middle of next year if the economy continues to strengthen.
The Fed expects the unemployment rate will fall to between 6.5 percent and 6.8 percent by the end of 2014. That's lower than their March forecast of 6.7 percent to 7 percent.
About 4.5 million Americans received unemployment benefits in the week ending June 1, the latest data available. That's 18,000 more than the previous week. But the number of recipients has fallen 28 percent in the past year. Some have likely gotten jobs, but many have used up all the benefits available.
The Labor Department said last week that more Americans quit their jobs in April compared with March. That points to confidence in the job market, since most workers don't quit until they have another job or are sure they can find one. More quits also opens up jobs for other workers, or the unemployed, to take.
The Indie Memphis Film Festival is bringing its free concert film series back to the Levitt Shell with six screenings starting next month.

"Big Star: Live in Memphis" will be shown Aug. 24.
Robert J. Gillette is the new CEO of The ServiceMaster Co.
Gillette takes the helm of the Memphis-based residential and commercial service provider immediately with his appointment Tuesday, June 18, by The ServiceMaster board.
Gillette succeeds interim CEO John Krenicki Jr., who became interim CEO in April following the resignation of Hank Mullany that month.
Krenicki continues to serve as chairman of ServiceMaster Global Holdings Inc., the parent company of ServiceMaster.
Gillette is the former CEO of First Solar Inc., a manufacturer of solar cells and power plants. He is also former president and CEO of the transportation systems and aerospace divisions of Honeywell International. Before Honeywell, he worked in various positions at GE for a decade including as manager of a plastics plant in Brazil.
ServiceMaster includes the brands Terminix, TruGreen, ServiceMaster Clean, Merry Maids, Furniture Medic, AmeriSpec and American Home Shield.
Memphis City Council members approved several budget items Tuesday, June 18, for the end of the current fiscal year before turning their attention to the budget for the coming fiscal year.
That includes a long promised Holmes-Tchulahoma Park in South Memphis. The council appropriated $1.5 million for the park's construction in a contract with Wagner General Contractors Inc.
It also included $1 million for speed humps at various locations in the city in a contract with Cantrell Construction.
The council delayed to next month a vote on $115,000 in funding for a dog park at Greenbelt Park on Mud Island through the Riverfront Development Corp.
Lee Harris, the council member who is sponsoring that item and was absent Tuesday, had better luck with second reading of his ordinance that would exempt Memphis vehicle owners from having auto inspections. The measure passed with third reading at the first council meeting in June.
The council also approved a trio of ordinances on third and final reading that push the effective date for new seismic provisions in the code for residential and existing buildings to the end of 2013. Without the change the new code would have taken effect July 1.
The Shelby County Commission took the same action at its meeting Monday (see below).
The Shelby County Commission approved Monday, June 17, a set of three ordinances on third and final reading Monday that push back the effective date for new seismic measures for new home construction and renovations of existing buildings until the end of 2013.
Developers and homebuilders called for the delay as they work to amend the code by the end of the year. They are concerned the new standards could drive up costs and dampen a recovering environment for home construction in particular.
Members of the West Tennessee Structural Engineers Association opposed a delay saying the county codes should reflect the city's location near the New Madrid earthquake fault and the earthquake risk. They also questioned whether the new standards would drive up construction costs.
The commission also delayed action on the appointment of Julie Furr to the Memphis and Shelby County Building Code Board for three weeks. Furr, project manager at Chad Stewart and Associates Inc. of Millington, was among the structural engineers who spoke against a delay of the new seismic code at the June 3 commission meeting.
Meanwhile, the commission approved the appointment by Shelby County Mayor Mark Luttrell of Cassandra Bell Warren as the newest member of the Memphis and Shelby County Land Use Control Board.
The Greater Memphis Chamber is launching a campaign, #MEMLUV: Rewards4Rewards, to welcome Southwest Airlines and to encourage Memphis residents to enroll in the airline's Southwest Rapid Rewards program.
Like many air carriers, Southwest carefully measures local enrollment in its frequent flier program, Rapid Rewards, as a gauge of local demand. The company also measures customers who use its Rapid Rewards Premier Card from New York-based JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The Greater Memphis Chamber, along with the Memphis Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Mid-South Air Service aims to sign up at least 50,000 new area Rapid Rewards members by Nov. 30.
The Northwest Tennessee Entrepreneur Center and Memphis Bioworks Foundation are collaborating to launch an agriculture innovation accelerator this summer.
The goal of the program will be to help launch and grow new agricultural businesses.
It will be a cohort-based business accelerator that leverages the strength of the nine counties served by The Northwest Tennessee Entrepreneur Center that have significant assets related to agricultural crop production, livestock and logistics. For the new program, up to eight companies will be chosen to go through a six-month round of business instruction and mentorship, and at the end, they'll pitch their business plans to a group of investors.
The program will support entrepreneurs commercializing a range of agriculture-related technologies, things like precision agriculture and software, grain handling and storage, food processing and more.
Memphis ad firm archer-malmo took home a Silver ADDY award at the 2013 National ADDY Awards Show hosted by the American Advertising Federation.
The firm's Silver ADDY was for its Memphis Redbirds "Poop Car" submission, which featured a parked car Downtown covered in fake bird droppings. It was parked near AutoZone Park with a sign that read, "The Redbirds are in town."
Memphis-based Dunavant Logistics Group has been recognized with an award of merit from the Transportation Marketing and Sales Association.
Memphis firm doug carpenter & associates helped create the winning integrated marketing campaign, which introduced Dunavant's newly consolidated brand to clients, partners and employees.
The campaign incorporated website development, online and print advertising, and a trade show presence.
Dunavant was recognized this week at the TMSA annual conference in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.
This summer, Memphis startup-focused nonprofit Start Co. is supporting women and minority entrepreneurship with two accelerator programs.
Later this month, the NewME Startup Accelerator three-day pop-up will be held at the FedEx Institute of Technology June 28-30.
NewME is a nationally recognized startup accelerator for minorities and women and is partnering with Google for Entrepreneurs and Start Co. on a nationwide tour (for more, see Page 12).
Starting next month, the new Upstart Accelerator will be held that represents the start of a 90-day mentor-driven accelerator for women-led tech startups. Now in its second year, four teams have been awarded $15,000 to get their tech startup-up running.
At the end of the three months the four teams will pitch their ideas to investors at a Demo Day showcase Oct. 17.
The National Federation of Independent Business has recognized Tennessee Senate Majority Leader Mark Norris, R-Collierville, with its Guardian of Small Business award for his leadership on a variety of legislative reform efforts.
The award is Norris' second Guardian award from the organization.
Jim Brown, the NFIB' s Tennessee state director, noted Norris' efforts on workers' compensation reform, balancing the state budget and a variety of other issues as reasons for the award.
Owners of property in the city of Memphis who owe past-due property taxes can now make their payment to the Shelby County Trustee.
The trustee' s office began collecting delinquent city of Memphis taxes effective May 15. Property owners with delinquent 2011 city of Memphis realty taxes should have begun receiving notices by certified mail starting in late May. A notice was also enclosed if property owners were delinquent on their 2011 Shelby County realty taxes.
The joint mailing saved taxpayers an estimated $200,000 in postage alone.
The trustee now manages delinquent tax collections for the county and all Shelby County municipalities.
Mobile Device Techs LLC, a locally owned mobile device and computer repair shop, is celebrating its official grand opening for the entire month of June.
Mobile Device Techs was previously a division of Tate Computer Systems Inc. It' s the brainchild of local business coach and entrepreneur Robert Staub, who has worked with Tate Copmuter Systems owner Sylvester Tate for more than two years as a consultant. Specials, giveaways and training are being offered throughout June to build awareness of the new brand and to keep the community informed of Mobile Device Techs services.

The Manchester, Vt.-based company focuses on selling goods and clothing associated with country living and sporting.

Yarnbombing is a poor way to make money . Although when I have been out yarnbombing on the street sometims someone will stop and hand me a five. I spent so much time last year yarnbombing that I had to give myself a loan. But the great thing about money and yarnbombing is this- yarnbombing showed me that if you are willing to not get paid , to not ask permission and to be calm about policemen –
you can do anything you want..
And almost everything you want.
I love Lark Books . They make the most beautiful books about Art Craft on the planet . I visited them last year and yarnbombed the outside of their building and had a delightful visit with 3 of their editors and Beth Sweet gave me 3 books which was the best reward for yarnbombing I could imagine .
However the city of Asheville took the yarnbomb just a few days later.
This left me with an interesting quandary . Should I put up a new yarnbomb in front of the Lark building this year when I knew it would be taken right down again ? I looked at my beautiful handspun hand knit yarnbomb and I couldn't do it.
I let my problem sit calmly in my mind. Last year Amanda Carestio had rashly given me her business card and I had carefully saved it. So this is what I thought – if i didn't feel good about yarnbombing the outside of the building – maybe Lark would let me yarnbomb the inside of the building. I have found that people will let me yarnbomb anything if I ask , it's quite amazing. So I e-mailed Amanda and she said " Yes !"
Amanda kindly sent me some pictures and I dug around in my embarrassingly large bag of yarnbombs . I packed up a huge bag of knitting options and flew off to Asheville. Amanda ushered me into the building and I saw this thrilling bright red staircase and knew that this was the perfect item to yarnbomb so I began sewing it up.
The director of lark – John Serena was interested in this activity – fortunately – and came out and talked to me . Book publishing is very interesting and some day I'd really like to write a book . After a nice chat John looked at me and said "Last year we gave you a book didn't we ? "
" Yes – 3 books ! ' I said fondly .
" Well I tell you what – I'm going to take you down to our store room an give you a box and let you take as many books as you like and we will ship them to you "
Oh my God.
We went downstairs through a big maze of furniture and boxed books . John showed me a whole room of shelved books , gave me my box and said " Take whatever you want ."
I looked at all those hundreds of books and said '" This is like a dream "
I began looking through books . I was happy to see I owned many many of them already . There were books on glass bead making , knitting , crocheting, wire jewelry , artist journals , pottery , glass blowing , photography , cupcakes – everything you could possibly want . It was 5.oo . Every one was leaving the building . I could hear things being locked up . I became gripped by the idea that I would be locked in all night with all these books .
I picked out books faster . Was I being greedy ? Yes !
I hesitated but pressed on. I wrote my address on the box which was full and picked out a crocheting book and a glass beadmaking book to take with me . Just in case they changed their minds . And I left
I felt supremely rich .

The lives of home office dwellers just got easier—and maybe cheaper.
The good news is that he Internal Revenue Service announced a new option on Tuesday for those who claim their home as their primary work space. The bad news is that won't apply to 2012; rather, the allowable expense method will begin for the 2013 tax year.
The deduction method is meant to simplify a confusing process, one that often leaves taxpayers facing an audit. Instead of working through the minutia of the seemingly endless Form 8829, taxpayers will have the option of deducting $5 per square foot for up to 300 square feet of office space, or $1,500.
The word "option" should be emphasized, since home office workers will still have the choice of using Form 8829 if that deduction is larger than the newly introduced alternative method. Individuals will weigh the time expense of filing out the old form against the difference in the size of the deduction.
Currently, taxpayers who claim the home office deduction are required to fill out a separate form calculating the percentage of the home that is used solely for the business and the percentage of expenses that apply to the office. According to CNN Money, it can be very complicated to figure out. But starting next year, the individual will no longer need to do those calculations.
"This is terrific news for the 52% of all small business that work from home, who fight every day to meet their bottom lines while continuing to contribute to the economy," Kristie Arslan, president and CEO of the National Association for the Self-Employed, an organization that lobbied for the change, said in a statement. "The previous calculation for the deduction was cumbersome and time consuming for America's smallest business and year after year hard-earned dollars were left on the table."

Every three years, the Register of Copyrights at the Library of Congress reviews the ways in which consumers may or may not circumvent Digital Rights Management (DRM) of copyrighted products covered under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) — what you can and cannot do, legally, with the gadgets and digital content you buy. And yesterday, the latest rulings (see below) came in — some of it good, some bad, some decidedly insane. Here is a quick breakdown of what you cannot do with your smartphones, tablets, DVDs, game-consoles, and more, according to the law.
Note: The new rules below go into effect on Sunday, October 28, 2012.
Jailbreaking smartphones: Allowed
Jailbreaking smartphones to allow users to download "unauthorized" apps has been legal under DMCA since 2010, and nothing changes for this year.
Jailbreaking tablets: Illegal
In a decision that some might call "crazy," the Register has decided that tablets may not be jailbroken, even though smartphones are exempt. Their reason? Because dang near anything could be considered a "tablet" these days, including e-readers, handheld game consoles, or even laptops. Because of this so-called lack of definition, the Register says that jailbreaking your tablet (or "tablet") is against the law.
Unlocking smartphones: Illegal
That's right — unlocking your smartphone so you can take it to another wireless carrier will soon be illegal, unless authorized by your carrier. This, despite the fact that the Register has allowed unlocking since 2006.
There are some exceptions to this rule — but they aren't worth cheering for. Specifically, you may unlock any phone you own now, or buy between now and "ninety days after the effective date of this exemption." As of January 2013, however, unlocking your device without permission is decidedly against the law.
Now, you're probably asking "Why in tarnation did they change this?" Because, according to the Register, the firmware on your phone — the software that, among other things, locks you into a specific carrier — is copyrighted, and therefore cannot be changed without violating the law. And since there are many more unlocked handsets on the market nowadays, and wireless carriers often provide ways for customers to unlock their phones, there's really no reason for you to do what you want with your device. Makes sense, right? Right?! Sigh…
DVD ripping: Illegal (mostly)
Ripping a DVD you legally own so you can watch the movie or TV shows on a device that cannot play DVDs, like a tablet or laptop without an optical drive, is illegal. Same goes for CDs. As Michael Weinberg of consumer advocacy group Public Knowledge notes, this rule "flies in the face of reality," especially given the fact that both the MPAA and RIAA agree that consumers should be allowed to do this.
There are some exceptions to this rule, however: The Register now allows ripping DVDs in order to use "short portions of motion pictures for the purpose of criticism or comment," as long as the clips are used in noncommercial videos, documentaries, and videos used for teaching purposes in kindergarten through college.
Game console modding: Illegal
Modding your game console to run software other than what came on the device is still illegal for the same reason that unlocking a smartphone is illegal — it requires changes to the firmware, which are copyright protected.
Wins for disabled customers
As maddening as some of the changes listed above may be, the Register did make some good exemptions for customers with vision and hearing impairments. Namely, hearing impaired customers may circumvent any "technological measures" included in e-books that prevent them from using read-aloud technology. Also, it is now legal to crack DVDs in order to create DVD players "capable of rendering visual representations of the audible portions of such works and/or audible representations or descriptions of the visual portions of such works to enable an individual who is blind, visually impaired, deaf, or hard of hearing" — as long as the DVD was obtained legally, of course. Researchers are also allowed to crack DVDs for research purposes.
DMCA facepalm
Clearly, some of these new rules (no jailbreaking tablets, no ripping DVDs so you can watch them on tablets, no unlocking phones without permission) are ridiculous from a user standpoint. But such is the complicated (some would say "broken") nature of copyright law. Let us know your thoughts on the new rules in the comments. And check out the full ruling below.

IPOs in Europe surged at more than double the pace of those in the U.S., according to data compiled by Bloomberg, as Deutsche Annington Immobilien SE, Germany's largest residential landlord, and U.K. property broker Foxtons Group Plc sold shares. Volume rose more than 10 percent globally compared with a year earlier, weighed down by a 40 percent drop in Asia.
Investors are returning to Europe after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi and German Chancellor Angela Merkel helped ease the region's debt crisis and end the euro-area recession. While growth prospects at companies such as Twitter Inc. are stoking interest in U.S. IPOs later this year, $1 billion-plus offerings from the U.K.'s Royal Mail Group Ltd. and London-based Merlin Entertainments Group Ltd. may get a boost from funds flowing toward Europe amid limited growth potential in the U.S., where stocks have climbed to records.
"There is a perception that the majority of the region's economic problems are behind us and we're going to see lower volatility levels," said Josef Ritter, head of equity capital markets for Europe at Deutsche Bank AG in London. "A key theme of this quarter was U.S. investors refocusing on Europe."
European Equities
U.S. investors bought more than $65 billion of European equities between January and May, the most since before the financial crisis, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. analysts including Sharon Bell and Matthieu Walterspiler said in a report this month. European investment funds bought almost 80 billion euros of equities in the past 12 months and inflows into Europe should continue, they said in further research released later this month.
Expensive U.S. equities this year following the S&P 500 Index's 20 percent surge are making Europe a natural place to look for growth, said Hans Olsen, chief investment officer for the Americas at Barclays Wealth, a unit of Barclays Plc.
"It is very risky to be overweight at these prices so you start to look somewhere else. The standout was Europe," Olsen said.
Before today, member companies in the Euro Stoxx 50 Index were trading at about 13 times this year's estimated earnings, compared with more than 19 for companies on the Nasdaq Stock Market and the Nikkei 225 Stock Average, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
U.S. Funds
U.S. funds that invest in European equities attracted $13.1 billion in the six weeks through Sept. 18, Societe Generale SA and EPFR Global data show, even as investors withdrew $16.9 billion from funds buying U.S. stocks.
"This is the year of the European equities story," said Klaus Hessberger, co-head of equity capital markets for Europe at JPMorgan Chase & Co. in London. "It helps that there is still a valuation discount here versus in the U.S. and Asian markets." The last quarter should see about 10 to 15 more IPOs with an average deal size up to $500 million, he said.
Italian clothing maker Moncler plans to list shares as early as November in a sale that could raise about 1 billion euros ($1.35 billion), people familiar with the matter have said. French cable-TV operator Numericable SAS also plans an IPO in the third quarter and could be valued at as much as 5.5 billion euros in the sale.
Moncler, Numericable
Gross domestic product in the 17-nation euro area rose in the second quarter, bringing to a close six straight quarters of contraction, the longest slump since the euro's debut in 1999. The euro meanwhile had gained 5.5 percent against a basket of nine major peers in 2013 before today, the biggest jump in the group and poised for its first annual gain in five years, Bloomberg Correlation-Weighted Currency Indexes show.
Still, risks remain. While the European Central Bank raised its 2013 eurozone economic projection this month, it still sees a 0.4 percent contraction and expects only a "gradual" pickup in activity.
A possible resurgence of political tensions, upcoming bank balance sheet assessment and deleveraging all could constrain the region's recovery next year, according to Philippe Gudin, chief European economist at Barclays in London.
"These headwinds pose some risk to our macroeconomic scenario and reinforce the view that the recovery will be very subdued," Gudin said.
Sprouts IPO
While U.S. IPO volume lagged behind Europe in the third quarter, it still tripled to more than $11 billion from a year earlier. Sprouts Farmers Market Inc., the grocer partly owned by Apollo Global Management LLC, and Benefitfocus Inc., a benefits-software company, more than doubled in their trading debuts during the quarter as the stock-market rally stoked investors' confidence and appetite for risk.
That pace of IPO activity may set the stage for sustained momentum through the end of the year as long as the U.S. government doesn't begin to taper stimulus spending more quickly than investors are comfortable with, according to Ashley Delp, co-head of equity capital markets for the Americas at Jefferies Group LLC.
Twitter, Alibaba
Empire State Realty Trust Inc., whose properties include Manhattan's Empire State Building, may raise as much as $1.07 billion in an IPO tomorrow. Microblogging service Twitter, which has more than 200 million members worldwide, said on its website Sept. 12 that it filed IPO paperwork confidentially with regulators.
Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., China's biggest e-commerce company, is moving toward a U.S. listing after talks with the Hong Kong stock exchange for an IPO broke down, a person familiar with the matter said this month. The listing may value the company at more than $100 billion, people familiar with the situation have said. The company hasn't yet hired banks and may move ahead with the offering next year.
In the Asia Pacific region, the value of IPOs fell in the third quarter as a rebound in Hong Kong failed to offset declines in Japan and Southeast Asia. Companies raised more than $10 billion from initial sales in the region, compared with about $17 billion a year earlier, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
"Investors are constructive on a global basis, while still being discerning about where they're putting their money to work," Jefferies Group's Delp said. "In terms of firing on all cylinders from a global perspective, I would say we're not quite there yet, but we're certainly heading in that direction."

Hermes Zip Wallet Blue Description
Hermes is a fashion house steeped in history and tradition. Family-owned for five generations, the label is a symbol of class worldwide. From beginnings in saddlery and fine equestrian leather goods, Hermes today are best known for their handbags as well as a range of other superior items. They have certainly come a long way in the last two centuries and today, we dig a little deeper into the story of this iconic brand.
1801 - Thierry Hermes is born in Krefeld, Germany to a French immigrant father, Thierry Hermes, and a German mother, Agnese Kuhnen. The town of Krefeld is known as 'Stadt wie Samt und Seide', or 'City of Velvet and Silk', due to its strong textile history.
1828 - The Hermes family move to Pont Audemer, north of Paris, where Thierry Jr. learns the trade of leather making and begins crafting harnesses.

1867 - Hermes wins the First Class Medal for the second time at the Expositions Universelles in Paris.
1878 - Thierry Hermes passes away.
1880 - Hermes's son, Charles-Emile Hermes, takes over management of his father's workshop and moves the store to a different location, on 24 Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore, where it remains to this day. Here, he continues with the saddler artisan and focuses on international retail sales with lines catering to the elite of Europe, Russia, North Africa, Asia, and the Americas.
1900 - With the help of his sons, Adolphe and Emile-Maurice, Charles-Emile designs the 'Haut a Courroies' bag, intended to allow riders to carry their saddles with them.
1902 - Charles-Emile retires, leaving the business to his sons, Adolphe and Emile-Maurice, who rename it Hermes Freres, or Hermes Brothers.
1914 - Emile-Maurice begins furnishing the czar of Russia with saddles and up to 80 saddle craftsmen are employed by the workshop. Due to this, Emile-Maurice gains exclusive rights to the use of the zipper on leather goods and clothing, becoming the first person in France to introduce the device.
1918 - Hermes introduce the first leather golf jacket with a zipper, crafted for Edward, Prince of Wales. Due to their exclusive rights agreement, the zipper becomes known throughout France as the 'fermeture Hermes', or the 'Hermes fastener'.
1919 - A decline in sales of horse harnesses and equipment leads to Adolphe Hermes leaving the company with Emile-Maurice buying his brother out.
1922 - The first leather handbags are introduced after Emile-Maurice's wife complains of not being able to find one to her liking. The bag is a smaller version of the 'Haut a Courroies' and is designed by Emile-Maurice personally.

1929 - Hermes introduce the first women's couture apparel collection which includes bathing outfits and is previewed in Paris.

1937 - Hermes introduces the silk scarf which instantly becomes a huge hit with celebrities such as Jacqueline Kennedy.

1950 - The perfume division of Hermes is established.

Every pair of Gargoyles provides protection and pinpoint optics in sunglasses built to last.
If anything ever goes wrong, we will do what it takes to make it right.
Gargoyles became a leader for ballistic protection over 35 years ago.
Gargoyles Tactical+ styles are designed for very high levels of performance and protection. These styles meet or exceed ANSI Z87.1+ specifications, with additional high-velocity impact protection that meets military specification MIL PRF 32432. Ideal for military and law enforcement personnel or for those who seek increased velocity protection.
In the MIL PRF 32432 velocity impact test, a quarter-inch steel projectile is shot at the lenses at 708km/hr. The sunglasses must be able to take this punishment without the lenses cracking, breaking, falling out of the frame, or touching the eye.
Remaining standards met by Gargoyles Tactical+ styles are at the ANSI Z87.1+ level.
Two lasers are aligned to match up to a single point from a 35 foot distance. Sunglasses are then placed in front of the two beams. In order to pass this test, the beams must maintain their original pinpoint trajectory and meet at the same point as before, showing that the glasses do not distort light positively or negatively. While other sunglasses distort the direction of the laser beam, Gargoyles maintains the original pinpoint optics.
A resolution chart is placed at a distance of 20 feet, with lines at both the X and Y axis. When the sunglasses are placed in front of an eyepiece, the viewer must be able to see at least 20 lines of resolution from 20 feet away clearly and distinctly without any blurring or distortion.
All Gargoyles sunglasses feature oleophobic and anti-reflective treatments to repel water, oil, and smudges, and to reduce glare. These treatements work together to facilitate cleaning, increase the lens' resistance to scratching, and improve the overall visual experience.

A 25-year-old Greenwood man is facing numerous criminal charges after leading police on a five-mile, high-speed chase with four children in his car.
A 25-year-old Greenwood man is facing numerous criminal charges after leading police on a five-mile, high-speed chase with four children in his car.
The chase began when a state trooper witnessed Frank R. Lovett speeding east on Teatown Road, southwest of Milford, about 9:45 p.m. Tuesday and attempted to stop his brown Chevrolet Caprice, Delaware State Police spokesman Master Cpl. Gary Fournier said.
Lovett continued driving east before turning left on northbound Lindale Road, where he attempted to escape the trooper by driving at a high rate of speed, Fournier said.
Lovett then turned onto westbound Abbotts Pond Road, before briefly heading west in the eastbound lane of Williamsville Road prior to turning onto southbound Deep Grass Lane.
Fournier said the car finally came to a stop after Lovett entered a dead end at Unity Lane, not far from where the chase began in southern Kent County.
Lovett exited the vehicle and was immediately taken into custody.
Inside the car, police found a 9-year-old girl, a 5-year-old boy and a 3-year-old girl improperly restrained in their seats. A 1-year old girl also in the car was properly restrained in a car seat, Fournier said, adding that all four children were later released to the custody of relatives.
Police also reportedly found less than half a gram of marijuana in the car.
Lovett is charged with four counts of reckless endangerment, four counts of endangering the welfare of a child, resisting arrest, disregarding a police officer's signal, possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, driving on a suspend or revoked license and 12 related traffic offenses.
Lovett was booked by the Kent County Governor's Task Force at Troop 3 in Dover, Fournier said. He is being held in the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center on a $12,620 secured bond.

Monroe St. Mary Catholic Central beats Cougars 47-32
Superior size and a solid defensive effort paced the Monroe St. Mary Catholic Central Falcons to a 47-32 victory Saturday over the Lenawee Christian Cougars to capture the title in the third annual Siena Heights University High School Holiday Tournament.
The undefeated Falcons (5-0) jumped out to an 11-4 lead and did not allow the Cougars (4-2) to score their first basket until 3:20 was left in the first quarter. LCS coach Scott McKelvey was impressed with the Falcons.
"They are a solid, all-around team," he said. "They've got a lot of different scorers and play a solid team defense."
SMCC used its front court of Jeffery Albright and Bradley Sherman, who are both 6-foot-6, and Chinedu Nwosu, who is 6-3, to keep the Cougars from getting any penetration to the basket. On offense, the Falcons showed enough patience to wear down LCS.
Kevin Woodson, tournament MVP, led all scorers with 23 points. Jalen Porter had 11 to lead the Cougars. They were the only two players in double figures as both teams played solid defense.
"They kept us away from the basket," McKelvey said. "We just couldn't get any second shots."
The SMCC defense limited the Cougars to single digits in each of the first three quarters. LCS hung close to the Falcons for much of the first half, trailing 19-12 at the break.
After scoring the first basket of the second half, the Cougars could get no closer and after Porter hit the second of his three 3-pointers to pull LCS to 24-17, the Falcons shut them down and ran off the last nine points of the quarter to take a 33-17 lead into the fourth quarter. Woodson scored nine points in the fourth quarter as the Falcons lead grew to 20 points before settling into the final 16-point margin.
The all-tournament team included Sherman and Nwosu, Bubba Williams from Hudson and Zach Mellon from Madison.
