Shire rejects chook farm bid
A planning application to build a chicken farm in the Baw Baw Shire could end up at the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) for the third time.
Ballywarra Farms want to build a broiler farm at Modella, big enough to house 400,000 birds in eight sheds.
This week, shire councillors rejected the project.
Mayor Murray Cook says the project has already been rejected at VCAT twice but its owners are likely to fight the council's decision at the tribunal again.
"When it went to VCAT last time, the roads to be used to gain access for the broiler farm and the new council also thought the buffer zone which took up the neighbour's property was something they didn't like," he said.
"Flooding, drainage and matters such as that, odour, all those things that come [from] living in the vicinity of a broiler farm."

ACCORDING to blink theory, first impressions are often the truest impressions. The first time I met Michael Cheika, the new coach of the Waratahs, was at Manuka Oval decades ago. Randwick, with Cheika as one of their aggressive loose forwards, had come to Canberra to play the local side.
As the Randwick side walked into their changing room, Cheika spotted me among the small crowd watching the great men arrive. "Spiro Zavos," he called out, "the rugby writer who never goes to matches." "What I am doing here, then?" I replied.
What I took from this brief encounter was that Cheika was an abrasive personality (as well as a player) and what rugby players call "a needler", someone who likes to provoke a reaction in people he is dealing with. What he was really saying was that if I had gone to matches I'd have to be promoting him as a Waratahs player in my columns. I immediately warmed to someone who had such self-confidence and a certain bravery in expressing it.
I subsequently followed Cheika's successful career as a coach in Europe with great interest. He coached Leinster to Celtic League and Heineken Cup triumphs. His teams played aggressive rugby in front of large and enthusiastic crowds of supporters. I have high hopes that this sort of take-no-prisoners approach by Cheika to his rugby, to promoting himself, his team and to his coaching will work well for the Waratahs this year.
Like Rod Macqueen, Cheika is a successful businessman. He can walk away from coaching without a financial worry. This will enable him to cut through all the politicking that has bedevilled the Waratahs since 1996. This politicking, involving power disputes between the leading Sydney clubs, board struggles and incessant power plays by senior players, has made the Waratahs a dysfunctional team for too long. A clean-out of administrators has created a new environment at the Waratahs.
The new chairman of the board, Roger Davis, has looked to Cheika to fulfil the potential of the team and win a first Super Rugby trophy. So far in 2013, so good. I watched the Waratahs defeat the Rebels in a friendly at Hobart a couple of weeks ago. Israel Folau revealed himself as the X-factor player teams need to win Super Rugby tournaments. The Waratahs forwards, too, tore into the rucks and mauls and, initially, gave away penalties. It was explained to me the reason for this was they were trying to work out how far the referee, Angus Gardner, would let them go. The Waratahs, too, played in a style that had many similarities to the old "Galloping Greens" Randwick game. One dazzling back movement was started from behind their own posts.
Against the Crusaders, in a second friendly at Allianz Stadium, there were fewer ruck penalties. Folau made a sizzling break from the kick-off.
The Waratahs, too, gave away shots at goal to score tries, which they did, scoring two to the one conceded. Cheika explained afterwards that he wanted his team to learn how to score tries.
For the first time in years, the Waratahs are really fit. The runs up the Coogee Steps have produced a side that looks, in body shape, more like a New Zealand side. Cheika, too, has imposed his way on the team by naming a new captain, Dave Dennis. He has dropped a former captain, Benn Robinson.
Tom Kingston, a player with a high work rate, has been preferred as a wing to Lachie Turner, whose early promise has been diminished through injuries.
There are 14 Wallabies in the Waratahs squad, nine of them in the forwards. The Waratahs have the players to be contenders. The Chiefs finished 11th in 2011 and won the Super Rugby tournament, with a new coach, last year. The Waratahs finished 11th last season. First impressions of Cheika suggest that sooner rather than later the Waratahs are going to be contenders.

(Reuters) - After three months of failed negotiations, the labor dispute between the National Hockey League (NHL) and locked out players moved into the courts on Friday, with the league filing a class action complaint against the players' union.
The league asked U.S. courts to confirm the legality of the lockout. It also filed an unfair labor practice against the players' union.
The players' union said the action had no merit.
The NHL's move appears to be a pre-emptive strike by the league after reports circulated that the NHL Players' Association (NHLPA) would seek a vote from its members to proceed with a "disclaim of interest" and no longer represent players in bargaining.
Dissolving the union would free players to file anti-trust lawsuits in the courts and have the lockout found illegal.
"Today, in response to information indicating that NHL players have or will be asked to vote to authorize the National Hockey League Players' Association's executive board to proceed to 'disclaim interest' in continuing to represent the players in collective bargaining, the National Hockey League filed a class action complaint in Federal Court in New York seeking a declaration confirming the ongoing legality of the lockout."
The league also said it was simultaneously filing an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board alleging that by threatening to "disclaim interest," the NHLPA is engaging in an unlawful subversion of the collective bargaining process and conduct that constitutes bad faith bargaining under the National Labor Relations Act.
The players' union said it had just received a copy of the National Labor Relations Board charge and has not yet been served with the lawsuit.
"However, based on what we've learned so far, the NHL appears to be arguing that players should be stopped from even considering their right to decide whether or not to be represented by a union," the NHLPA said in a statement.
"We believe that their position is completely without merit."
Canadian media reported the players' union executive board agreed on Thursday to put a vote to the players that would authorize the board to proceed with a "disclaimer of interest."
The union would be dissolved with a favorable vote and players would cease being seen as a collective entity, enabling them to file anti-trust suits.
National Basketball Association (NBA) and National Football League (NFL) players pursued similar courses in 2011 labor disputes with their leagues before new collective bargaining agreements were eventually reached.
The legal maneuvering comes a day after the sides had spent two unsuccessful days with U.S. federal mediators trying to jump start stalled talks on a new collective bargaining agreement.
NHL commissioner Gary Bettman has said he cannot see the league, which normally runs an 82-game regular season, playing less than a 48-game campaign. But with games through December, 42.8 percent of the schedule, already canceled, time is quickly running out on salvaging even a partial season.
The two sides appear to have inched closer on the main sticking point of how to divide $3.3 billion in revenue.
The league is seeking an immediate 50-50 split while players, who will see their share chopped from 57 percent, want the cuts brought in gradually with a "make whole" provision in place to cover money that would be lost on current contracts.
Several other contentious items remain on the table, including the length of a new collective bargaining agreement and contract limits to drug testing and continued participation in the Winter Olympics.

Sliding Door Damper moves heavy doors and windows smoothly into their final position
2015 April 13, 16:02 CEST
At the Hannover fair, SKF will demonstrate its Sliding Door Damper whose unique design ensures that heavy sliding doors are brought to a halt safely and smoothly
Gothenburg, 13 April 2015: SKF has developed a revolutionary design of damping system that brings heavy sliding doors to a smooth close.
The Sliding Door Damper (SDD) incorporates two gas springs and an oil damper, ensuring that doors up to 400kg in weight can quickly be brought to a soft, safe final position– almost no matter how hard they are closed. As well as acting as a brake, the SDD also positions the door in its closed position.
"Now it is possible to close heavy sliding doors completely without bouncing." says Hans Intelmann, head of product design at SKF Group company HAHN Gasfedern.
The design is a vast improvement on existing systems, which tend to use a single air-gas-oil spring, and are limited to doors up to 100kg in weight. Existing comparable products for heavier doors are often bulky, expensive and require an electrical or hydraulic connection.
The new product combines three separate functions: regressive braking; cushioned docking; and gentle closing. It decelerates the linear motion of doors, windows and even heavy drawers until they reach a defined end position.
The SDD is mounted to the sliding door, and consists of a longitudinal section with a floating piston at each end – plus a damper piston that runs in oil. Both ends of the SDD are filled with gas which makes an oil leakage almost impossible. A hook is connected to the piston rod of the damping element. As the door is pushed shut, it engages the hook, which unlocks the pre-stressed damping element. The door's momentum pulls on the piston rod, causing the damping piston to brake in the oil. It comes to a gentle halt when it presses against the air spring at the 'closed' end.
The SDD is designed in four different sizes, each with a different casing length. This allows the concept to handle doors ranging from 60 up to 400kg. The smallest model, the 'Soft Close' 04-12, is the first to launch: it has a casing length of 315mm and can handle door weights of 60-100kg. It is aimed at manufacturers of furniture and furniture fittings. At the top end, the 08-23 model will have a casing length of 480mm and a capability of 200-400kg door weights.
The SDD is likely to be used in a range of sliding door structures, such as barn doors, room partitions and French windows. SKF sees opportunities with manufacturers and wholesalers of sliding doors, furniture and construction fittings.
The Sliding Door Damper (SDD) is among a series of innovations that SKF will showcase at this year's Hannover fair (April 13th – 17th). More information can be found in hall 22, booth B12, and on www.skfpowerthefuture.com.

Bletchley Park gets personal with new Alan Turing exhibition
Steampunk speech-scrambler, a note to mum and more
Letters, academic work and personal belongings of wartime codebreaker and computer pioneer Alan Turing, including a letter to his mother explaining his role in the outcome of World War II, went on display at Bletchley Park on Monday.

The new display, which will eventually also include a rebuild of Turing's speech-scrambling machine, codenamed Delilah, was officially opened by Top Gear presenter James May.
The exhibition came about following a high-profile public campaign last year to save a bunch of Turing's papers collected by his friend Professor Max Newman, which had been put up for auction at Christie's.
Sir John Scarlett, chairman of the Bletchley Park Trust, said at the event today that the fight to save the collection was kicked off when director of museum operations Kelsey Griffin spotted the auction and tweeted for help.
That bagged the campaign some help from Google and private donations, but not quite enough to meet the collection's reserve price at auction. Bletchley then went to the National Heritage Memorial Fund, which provided the shortfall to buy the collection.
After the papers were saved, members of Turing's family came forward with some of his personal belongings from school and university days to add to the exhibition.
Letter to Alan Turing's mother
The letter to Turing's mother was written by Brian Randell, professor of computing science at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne, 20 years after his death and tells her for the first time the value of his contribution to the war effort and to computing as we know it.
"[The Government's] information release states that Charles Babbage's work in the 19th century and your son's work in the 1930s laid the theoretical foundations for the modern computer," the letter read, adding that a book published in the US credited Turing with breaking the German's Enigma Code, thereby having "vital importance" in the war.
The work done at Bletchley during the war remained a secret until the 1970s, despite the fact that thousands of people had worked there by the end of the war.
Lord Asa Briggs, a Bletchley Park codebreaker, told The Register that he had married his wife in 1955, but she didn't find out about his time at Bletchley until 20 years later.
"We didn't keep those secrets because we'd signed the Official Secrets Act, we kept them because we knew they were essential to winning the war," he said.
Lord Briggs said Turing was a genius, a sentiment echoed by another wartime codebreaker, Captain Jerry Roberts.
Stephen Kettle's statue of Alan Turing at work
"In the spring of 1941, Britain was losing the war," Captain Roberts said. "The German wolf packs (u-boats) were sinking the ships bringing in food and raw materials to Britain left, right and centre... and of course we didn't know where they were out there, waiting, lurking.
"At that juncture, Turing made his fantastic achievement of breaking naval Enigma ... At that juncture, there was no other salvation for Britain, there was nothing else that could have saved Britain, and of course Europe at the same time.
"Once naval Enigma was broken, the sinkings dropped by 75 per cent."
Roberts said Turing also made a vital contribution to breaking Tunny, the code for high level communications including messages sent by Hitler, and briefed Tommy Flowers, the engineer who designed the world's first programmable computer, Colossus.
Sir John Dermot Turing, Alan Turing's nephew, said that the family hoped that the personal belongings in the new exhibition would show Turing as a man, as well as one of the founding fathers of computing.
"You hear about his eccentricities, you hear about chaining mugs to the radiators and cycling around the locality with his gas mask on to ward off hay fever. It can paint a picture of somebody who is mathematically remote and is perhaps too weird to want to get to know," he said.
"What this new exhibition is trying to do is to share some of the more human side of Alan Turing's nature, perhaps to balance out the other picture."
Alan Turing's belongings from school and university days
Among his personal effects are a teddy bear named Porgy, who was the "first audience" for his lectures, English literature books given to him as prizes at school – which Turing joked still looked untouched after 80 years – and sporting trophies from when he used to row for King's College Cambridge.
These are displayed along with some of his academic papers; the already rebuilt Bombe machine, which was instrumental in breaking the Enigma code; and a sculpture of Turing at work by Stephen Kettle. Later this year, the exhibition will also house Turing's Delilah machine.
The speech-scrambling machine, codenamed Delilah
Delilah was a portable speech-scrambler. Turing started working on it in 1943 and demonstrated its mechanisms by encrypting and then decrypting one of Churchill's speeches, but the machine was never commissioned for use in the war effort.
The Bletchley Park Trust Bombe Rebuild Team, led by John Harper, is currently rebuilding the machine for display to the public later this year.
Fundraising for the restoration of the rest of the park, including the huts where Enigma was cracked, is ongoing. Phase one of the work is expected to start this year and be completed by 2014.
Bletchley Park Trust has successfully secured a Heritage Lottery Fund grant of £5m and has raised £1.3m. Phase one of the project will cost £7.4m and total costs are expected to exceed £10m. ®

The city's unique policing system is deeply rooted in its history.
Political observers have recently been trumpeting the Turkish Model, citing Turkey's democracy, its open-minded Islamists and economic zip as an example to newly liberated Arab nations and other Muslim countries.
In the 18th century, however, its capital presented a less positive model. The Istanbul of that era – with waves of migrants, an underclass of servants and unskilled laborers, overburdened housing stock, dirty slums abutting elegant mansions, high levels of petty and violent crime – looked much like Dickensian London.
"The scholarship has kind of put all cities in the Middle East in the category of 'Islamic cities,' focusing on Islamic institutions and drawing a hard-and-fast line between these cities and European cities," says Fariba Zarinebaf, professor of Islamic studies at University of California, Riverside.
In Crime and Punishment in Istanbul, 1700-1800, Zarinebaf uses court, prison and police records, surveys, imperial orders and a variety of Ottoman narratives to map the city's criminal activity. She also highlights Istanbul's importance as a port, its layered history and its great diversity. "It was so much more diverse than any other European city," she says. "It's the most cosmopolitan city in the Mediterranean world."
To control crime and rebellion (the city experienced uprisings in 1703 and 1730, the latter of which toppled the leadership for several months) the state embraced heavy-handed tactics familiar to contemporary Arab autocrats: planting spies in coffeehouses to eavesdrop, rounding up and exiling foreigners and the marginalized and creating guilds and neighborhood associations to report back on questionable activity.
"What's happening today with the Arab uprisings is just déjà vu," says Zarinebaf, who points out that protest movements in both eras were due in part to simple hunger. "What happens when people rebel? The state cracks down."
Yet the historic Turkish justice system offered a much more enlightened model, mixing elements of Sharia with modern law. With thousands of Albanians, Greeks and Kurds among its population of about 400,000—the same as Paris at the time—18th century Istanbul was about 40 percent Christian and 5 to 10 percent Jewish. "Istanbul was never really a Muslim city," says Zarinebaf. "It had to cater to these various interests and as a result it became far more flexible."
Rather than having his hands cut off, for instance, a man found guilty of pickpocketing was generally sentenced to row in the galleys. Rather than lashed, a woman guilty of prostitution might be banished to Bursa, in Anatolia. If the woman repented, she could choose to pursue rehabilitation.
In this regard, 18th century Istanbul was more modern than a handful of 21st century states. Saudi Arabia and Yemen still punish homosexuality with death. In Pakistan, women unable to produce four adult male witnesses to their rape are found guilty of fornication and jailed.
As a result of its complex history, 21st century Turkey balances Islam, liberty and a touch of authoritarianism. Alcoholic drink and public brothels are tolerated by the state – political dissent and a free press less so.
In terms of policing, Turkey's vast cosmopolis offers lessons for the developing megacities of today, places like Dubai and Jakarta, Nairobi and Cairo. Istanbul has in recent decades been undergoing a rapid transformation, as urban expansion and modernization remake previously dilapidated and marginalized neighborhoods into welcoming retail and residential districts, often pushing the less advantaged to outlying areas. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, a former Istanbul mayor, envisions the city as a global hub and world financial center.
It's already one of the safer major international cities, for which Zarinebaf cites layers of law enforcement. Policing principles are drawn from the military. Training and education is essential – 85 percent of Turkish police have undergraduate degrees.
The city sets up police checkpoints at night to monitor movement. An integrated surveillance system connects hundreds of CCTV cameras to thousands of squad cars and scores of mobile stations, keeping an eye on most public areas.
At the same time, a community watch program maintains local vigil, via merchant guilds and neighborhood groups. "Today if I move to Turkey I have to report to the local police and tell them," says Zarinebaf. "This kind of approach to policing – not only from the top, but also from below, keeping an eye on the neighborhood – this sort of policing is uniquely Ottoman."
Zarinebaf lives in the Windy City but prefers the former Constantinople, which has the lowest assault rate in Europe. "In Istanbul, I feel safer than I feel in Chicago," she says.
That should come as little surprise to Chicagoans, who saw their murder rate spike by more than half in January. Maybe it's time to take a closer look at the Turkish model.

Has anyone anchored recently inside the pond (not the harbor)? Our draft is 5'6". We ended up anchoring outside in Menemsha Bight and it ended up being a very rocky night - good holding ground, but constant rolling first from wind, then from swells. What's your preferred anchoring spot on Martha's Vineyard? Thanks for any input.

Communications alumni, faculty, students contribute to entrepreneurship week
Communications alumni, faculty, students contribute to entrepreneurship week
A strong, talented mix of College of Communications alumni, faculty and students will play a role during the fifth-annual Global Entrepreneurship Week at Penn State.
The week of activities, scheduled Nov. 17-22 on the University Park campus, includes a series of more than 30 panels and presentations that are part of the global event designed to foster an international interest in entrepreneurship.
Millions of attendees in 120 countries participated in Global Entrepreneurship Week last year and Penn State -- with 20 events and 500 students attending -- ranked fourth in the nation among all listed partners. This year, Penn State organizers hope to rank even higher.
"Our efforts placed us squarely in the national spotlight. Naturally, being fourth spurred us on to strive to be No. 1," said Linda Feltman, a senior business consultant for the Penn State Small Business Development Center who has worked closely with the communications contingent, and everyone associated with the entrepreneurship effort. "We have numerous exciting events planned and the cooperation across campus and between town and gown has been rewarding to watch unfold. It's going to be a great week."
Anne Hoag, an associate professor in the Department of Telecommunications, has been a strong proponent of entrepreneurship efforts. She will serve on one panel during the week.
In addition, alumnus Jason Brewer, who founded Brolik Productions Inc. in 2004 and earned his film-video degree in 2006, will participate in two separate events and visit classes.
Several students also played an important role. Advertising/public relations student Mac Frederick, on track to graduate in December, will coordinate one event through Nittany Entrepreneurs, and will participate on two separate panels about student entrepreneurship.
A five-member team of communications students has helped coordinate publicity for the events at Penn State, too.
In addition to the College of Communications, six Penn State colleges have helped make the week of activities on campus a reality. They are: the College of Agricultural Sciences, the College of Arts and Architecture, the College of Engineering, the College of Health and Human Development, the College of Information Sciences and Technology, and the Smeal College of Business. Student organizations that have partnered with the on-campus programs are: Happy Valley Communications, Innoblue, Nittany Consulting Group, Nittany Entrepreneurs and the Professional Management Association.

World's leading hot tub manufacturer first in industry to deliver website for today's "on the move" consumer
VISTA, Calif., Sept. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Hot Spring® Spas, the world's number one selling hot tub brand, announces a significant enhancement to HotSpring.com, mobile optimization.
Optimization ensures that consumers find readable, relevant, local information on their smart phones or tablet computers, quickly. Hot Spring is the first major hot tub brand to fully optimize its site for mobile consumers.
According to Google 53% of American consumers use their smartphones to access search engines at least once a day1. By 2015, 81% of U.S. cell users will have smartphones2 and one in three will own a tablet computer.
"We know our customers are looking for us on their mobile devices," said Kacy Rivers, Brand Manager for Hot Spring. "Our commitment is to deliver the information they need, when they need it – whether they are in the car, the store, or anywhere they are considering a hot tub-related purchase."
The optimization of www.HotSpring.com includes the introduction of features designed specifically with the mobile consumer in mind.
Location. Through geo-location (when enabled by user) the site is populated with information about the Hot Spring dealer nearest to them automatically.
Navigation. From easy-to-read fonts, thumb-friendly buttons, and a "less is more" approach, the mobile site is easy to navigate on any device.
Content. Mobile customers are looking for specific product information, often from inside the store4. Using a combination of QR codes on in-store displays and/or user-friendly, interactive product pages on the mobile site, customers will easily access information on any Hot Spring product.
Ratings. Ratings and reviews are a key product feature demanded by today's educated mobile consumer, especially when considering a long-term, purchase for their home.
"Mobile optimization isn't a trend or a gimmick, it's a consumer revolution," said Brian Glass, Marketing Manager for Watkins the manufacturer of Hot Spring Spas. "Within a year or two, we believe mobile will be a touch point for virtually every Hot Spring hot tub purchase."
Mobile optimization is the most recent in a series of enhancements to the Hot Spring online platform which, in spring 2012 included new "quick-click" icons for categories, such as jet therapy, energy-efficiency, easy water-care systems; product & lifestyle videos; a 3-D deck design tool; and ratings & reviews.
Since its launch Hot Spring models have achieved an average rating of 4.6 on a scale of 5 stars.
"Until recently the idea of shopping for a hot tub on a mobile phone sounded pretty far-fetched, but not anymore," said Rivers. "Today we know that it isn't the size of the purchase, it's about providing our customers with the resources they need for any purchase in a way that is convenient for them. At Hot Spring this has always been our commitment."

As if getting several thousand dollars in government aid wasn't enough, future Nissan Leaf buyers may also get a free week or two in a gas-powered car courtesy of Nissan. How many anti-anxiety treatments do electric vehicle buyers need?
Given the range of 80 to 120 miles, and a charging time of up to 21 hours on a normal 110v plug, the Leaf isn't the best choice for cross-country touring. Which is why most of its early U.S. buyers will use it for a second car in commuting, rather than an all-encompassing family driver.
While the idea was first broached by a Nissan executive at the Paris Motor Show, Nissan spokeswoman Katherine Zachary told Jalopnik today it was "something being considered for some global markets, but not necessarily for the U.S." Because after getting a $7,500 tax break from the government, along with additional tax breaks for the home charger and matching state and local incentives, it could look like some Leaf buyers were getting paid to just buy another car.

Fixed Cross wrote:
Berlin (AFP) - German politicians voiced outrage Friday after a leader of the rightwing populist AfD party said Germany should be proud of its soldiers who fought in two world wars.
Alexander Gauland, 76, a top candidate of the anti-immigration Alternative for Germany in September 24 elections, also said the country had sufficiently atoned for its crimes and should "reclaim its past".
The Social Democrats' Thomas Oppermann said such comments "expose Gauland as an ultra-right militarist", while Greens lawmaker Volker Beck labelled his statements "ever more disgusting".
As the latest controversy flared around the AfD, which campaigns under the slogan "Stop Islamisation", new polls suggested it would take 10 to 12 percent of the vote, giving it a good chance of becoming Germany's third strongest party.
Gauland has repeatedly sparked anger with provocative statements, saying no-one would "want as a neighbour" a German footballer with an African father, and recently saying a politician with Turkish roots should be "disposed of in Anatolia".
He made the comments on Germany's wartime and Holocaust past at a September 2 party meeting, but footage of the speech only hit the public eye on Thursday.
In it, Gauland called for an end to German guilt over the Nazi era, saying that in Europe, "no other nation has so clearly dealt with its wrongful past as Germany".
"We have the right to reclaim not just our country, but also our past," he said.
"If the French are rightly proud of their emperor (Napoleon), and the British of (Admiral Horatio Lord) Nelson and (Prime Minister Winston) Churchill, then we have the right to be proud of the achievements of German soldiers in two world wars," he said.
Germany's Interior Minister wants secret backdoor access to computers, phones and even Volkswagens, according to a media report. Critics have slammed his plan as an "Orwellian nightmare."
Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere plans to argue "the legal duty for third parties to allow for secret surveillance" during an interior ministry conference in Leipzig next week. The proposal would "dramatically extend" the state's powers to spy on its citizens, according to the RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland (RND) report.

Reuters/Kai PfaffenbachGermany is NSA's primary host of surveillance architecture in Europe – report
If signed into law, de Maiziere's proposal would allow German security services to spy on any device connected to the internet. Tech companies would be compelled to provide the state with backdoor access to most digital consumer devices, including private tablets, computers and even televisions and cars. However, German authorities would need the authorization of a judge before tapping into a compromised consumer device.
According to media, the German interior minister feels such legislation is necessary because the rise of encryption and other security systems has hindered digital intelligence gathering and surveillance.
The plan to expand state snooping powers has raised eyebrows in a country that within living memory has suffered under some of the most ruthless, all-pervasive surveillance in history – from both the Nazi Gestapo and the East German Stasi.
"The Interior Minister's plans sound like an Orwellian nightmare. Soon all flats in Germany will be equipped with devices which are potential wiretaps," Konstantin von Notz, deputy faction leader of the Green Party, told Der Spiegel.

"We need to think really hard about the fact that we are a country with two dictatorships in its recent history. Do we want to live in a land where there is no privacy and where the state can interfere wherever it is technologically possible?" he asked.
Bundestag member and Secretary General of the Bavarian State Association of the Social Democratic Party (SPD), Uli Grötsch, said that Germans should be wary of more surveillance in the name of security. "More intervention and monitoring does not automatically mean more security," he said, as cited by Der Spiegel.
Despite opposition to the proposed backdoor, Germany already boasts comprehensive, and sometimes undisclosed, surveillance powers.
The US National Security Agency not only spies on German citizens, but also houses the agency's key European data centers, Der Spiegel revealed in 2014. More recently, in February of this year, the magazine reported that Germany's Federal Intelligence Service (BND) had spied on western news media outlets and international news agencies for years.
Even encrypted German data isn't safe: In June, Germany passed a controversial law that expands the state's ability to monitor encrypted material sent via message services such as WhatsApp and Skype.

A Complex Chogakpo Pojagi: Delicacy in Cloth from Korea
March 30, 2011
As you probably have picked up from some previous postings, I love Korean pojagi, traditional wrapping cloths that are hand stitched from scraps of ramie or moshi cloth. Today I am showing one of the favorite pieces in my collection.
At first glance this chogak po style pojagi, or one made of scraps, is deceptively simple in design, with its seemingly regular vertical stacks of diagonally-sliced blocks. But keep looking.Notice how the stacked blocks become compressed at a certain point and then give way; how long, leaning diagonals cut through the blocks, providing a kind of counter-rhythm to the "melody," as it were. Whoever stitched this pojagi had magnificent skill and deft fingers: some of the pieces of ramie cloth are so small that it's a wonder that they didn't simply unravel in her hands.
This probably dates to the middle swath of the twentieth century. It measures 29″ x 28″ or 73.5 cm x 71 cm. And it's beautiful.And a quick update on the new webshop: we're behind schedule, but hopeful for an unveiling within the next ten days.
THANK YOU for your patience and for visiting this blog, and please don't give up yet: the shop will be up soon, and it will be showing some of the new finds from Japan, which I'm getting organized as I type this.

Cjarrous brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 293 Designs von 42 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
Cedar Bay Capital
A start-up investment firm that focuses on smaller companies to invest in. Small firm with a small staff that will need every available tool to compete with the big boys in the field. We invest in entrepreneurial companies that others ignore but we need a logo that shows we need to be taken seriously, and have put considerable effort into everything we do, right down to our logo.
The name was chosen for sentimental reasons as well as the notion that cedars convey stability, serenity, and a strong foundation.
Wealthy Individuals, larger investment firms, pension funds and charities, both domestic and international. This will mostly be targeted at older, more experienced professionals who meet with many other investment firms in their line of business so needs to strike the right balance between standing out and too flashy.
We want it to convey integrity, professionalism, trust, and stability. This is the first thing many potential clients will see and we need it to strike the right cord.
Regarding the logo, we want it to be memorable, and come across as something from a much more established firm
The entire name must be used
White background is preferable as this will be the face of the firm on the internet as well, but not absolutely necessary...if it's great we will consider it
The logo must be usable when translated to black and white
-Typeface should Clear and bold but feel free to experiment with colors but no red
-Capitalization can be ALL Caps or only the first letter of each word
-NO Dollar Signs, flashy colors, fancy script, or movement in the logo
-Nothing tacky or whimsical
If Tree icon is used, a specific type of cedar is desired and the pictures are included below to give an idea of what this cedar looks like.
Also, feel free to experiment with using an image of a bay if it fits
The logo will probably be used on business cards as well which will probably be a follow-up project
No stock images or clip art in the logo

For a class project, computer-engineering college kids built a system that tracks body movements using a camera and a coloured vest, mapping them to a Space Invaders-type game that requires you to jump to shoot.
You become the controller in the classic game, which is deliberately intended to promote cardiovascular health: There's a sensor that tracks heart rate and sends it to the game component, where it, in theory, could be used "to vary game speed and difficulty." The only sad part about this is that the original game was intended to be Pong, which would've been potentially more of a two-player, and thus more dangerous, thing.
In spite of all this new interaction—and a respectable effort of of building and programming put forth by by the three dudes, Clarkson University juniors Allen, Doug and Matt—the object of the game is still quite simple. As you can hear someone tell the vested Allen in the (unintentionally?) hilarious video on Matt's website, "We fixed it. Now don't die." [The Matt Cave via Hackaday via Ubergizmo]

Don't make the mistake of thinking you need a lot of tools and machinery to get started in woodworking. While it's certainly nice to have a jointer, planer, table saw and router, the only power tool I used to make this bench was a jigsaw. To learn about the simple tools and techniques we use, download the free and newly updated "I Can Do That" manual.
We designed this project around available sizes of common lumber and put it together with a simple but strong method: nails and cleats. To add visual interest to this simple design, the ends are thicker than the front, back, sides and top, and all of the joints are offset. This creates lines and shadows at the intersections. It also takes some of the pressure off your precision – if your measurements are slightly off no one will ever know.
Because I planned to paint this piece, I decided to use inexpensive material – #2 pine. I used 2 x 12 dimensional lumber for the ends, and 1 x 12 and 1 x 10 for the rest. If you want to use a clear fi nish to show the wood grain, you might want to upgrade to clear hardwood. Spend some time picking your material. You want the straightest pieces you can fi nd with the fewest knots and other defects.

Arsene Wenger: Second Arsenal loan for Thierry Henry still a possibility
Arsene Wenger is yet to rule out signing Thierry Henry but has refused to confirm Barcelona's David Villa is a target.
Last Updated: 28/12/12 12:58pm
The prospect of a third Arsenal spell for the club's record goalscorer was first raised in November, but Henry's MLS franchise New York Red Bulls later said there had been no approach and any chance of a return appeared dead.
Now Wenger has confirmed Henry's imminent arrival for winter training, and there is still the possibility of a loan spell similar to last season's - which saw the Frenchman score within 10 minutes of his second Arsenal debut.
Wenger said: "I've not lost interest in him. He's still coming to practise with us.
"Our relationship is very close but, at the moment, I think he has had a second spell at the club that was very successful. You have to be cautious that it's not one time too many.
"I have not completely ruled it out but I haven't spoken about it with him at all."
Arsenal have been linked with a string of strikers, among them Barcelona's David Villa and Demba Ba of Newcastle.
Asked directly about Villa he said: "Any interest we have in any players has to be kept secret at the moment. I cannot come out with any names."
And on Ba he said: "It is not right to speak about him. If you ask 'do we sign him?' I say no."

Think of it as the Indian version of sloppy joes.
Pav Bhaji, the wonderful street food of Mumbai, traditionally consists of a potato and vegetable curry (or bhaji) served on a bun (or pav). I've never had the pleasure of sampling Pav Bhaji in Mumbai, but I did cook up my own version last year, and it was immediately one of my favorite foods.
I got a craving for pav bhaji last week, but there was a little problem: I've been limiting my servings of starchy vegetables lately, and if I wanted to stick to my diet, I could either have the bread or the potatoes but not both.
So I decided to do a little revamp of the recipe and substitute quick-cooking moong dal for the potatoes. I have to say that it was a huge success. I think I'll be making dal bhaji from now on!
I also strayed from tradition in my choice of bread. My husband and I ate this hot off the stove packed in whole wheat pita pockets for dinner. The next day, we ate the leftovers cold, scooped up with triangles of pita bread.
Hot or cold, it makes a great dip for pitas or crackers. Serve it at your next party and it may be the most colorful dip your guests have ever seen, with its flecks of green and orange and red vegetables. And with all those vegetables and its 14 grams of fiber per serving, it will definitely be the healthiest!
Check out all my low-fat Indian recipes!
Dal Bhaji
- 1 cup masoor dal , moong dal or red lentils
- 3 cups water
- 1 cup each of each of these vegetables, finely diced: green beans, carrots, zucchini, cabbage
- 1/2 cup frozen green peas
- 1 large onion chopped finely
- 1 teaspoon ginger , minced
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 bell pepper , finely chopped
- 2-3 teaspoons pav bhaji masala (spice mix available at Indian markets) (use less for less spicy bhaji)
- 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder or cayenne , or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 3 roma tomatoes , finely chopped
- salt to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- Put the dal and water in a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the dal is softened, about 15 minutes. Add more water if necessary to prevent it from drying out.
- Cook the green beans, carrots, zucchini, and cabbage in water until soft. (I did this in the pressure cooker, with 1/2 cup of water at high pressure for 5 minutes.) When they're soft, add the peas and mash the vegetables well, in the liquid. Stir in the cooked dal.
- Heat a good non-stick wok or large pot. Add the onions and cook, adding a little water as necessary, until they begin to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the ginger, garlic, and bell peppers and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Stir in the pav bhaji masala, red chili powder, turmeric, and salt. Add the tomatoes, and cook until they start to break down, about 5 minutes. Add the mashed vegetables and salt to taste. Cook on low for about 20 minutes. Add lemon juice and serve on toasted buns, with pita bread, or as a dip.

DOJ's New 'Less Likely To Spy On Press' Rules Only Apply To Whoever DOJ Feels Is Really 'News Media'
from the seems-like-a-big-loophole deptWe recently mentioned that the DOJ has put out its revamped guidelines in which the organization promises to be a little more careful before spying on journalists and their sources (and friends, colleagues and family...). However, as some are pointing out, the guidelines appear to be pretty careful about defining "the press" to only mean "people who work for big media organizations." Everyone else is fair game.
This kind of issue keeps coming up with the discussions around a "media shield" law, in which politicians keep suggesting that we need an official designation for who is and who is not a journalist. Of course, as we've been saying for years, that's silly and antiquated. You could easily write such a shield law to be about protecting journalism rather than journalists. That's because, these days, almost anyone can do journalism, if the opportunity presents itself. If someone is trying to bring important information to the public, that's a journalism role, and those actions should be protected, no matter who the employer might be.
DIOG does include online news in its definition of media (PDF 157).
"News media" includes persons and organizations that gather, report or publish news, whether through traditional means (e.g., newspapers, radio, magazines, news service) or the on-line or wireless equivalent. A "member of the media" is a person who gathers, reports, or publishes news through the news media.
But then it goes on to exclude bloggers from those included in the term "news media."
The definition does not, however, include a person or entity who posts information or opinion on the Internet in blogs, chat rooms or social networking sites, such as YouTube, Facebook, or MySpace, unless that person or entity falls within the definition of a member of the media or a news organization under the other provisions within this section (e.g., a national news reporter who posts on his/her personal blog).
Then it goes onto lay out what I will call the "WikiLeaks exception."
As the term is used in the DIOG, "news media" is not intended to include persons and entities that simply make information available. Instead, it is intended to apply to a person or entity that gathers information of potential interest to a segment of the general public, uses editorial skills to turn raw materials into a distinct work, and distributes that work to an audience, as a journalism professional.
The government's continued insistence that it somehow needs to define who is and who is not a journalist seems like it's not just a mistake from a policy perspective, but also something that (perhaps on purpose) leaves open a giant loophole to spy on lots of people the government probably shouldn't be spying on.
