Kisses™ and Volkswagen To The Rescue!
"Can a Kisses™ or Volkswagen initiative save Dade County Water & Sewer?"
asks Vivian Greene pictured at a Warner Bros Display
International Licensing Show, NY.
-=*=–=*=- -=*=–=*=- -=*=–=*=- -=*=- -=*=–=*=- -=*=- -=*=–=*=-
I wonder if an initiative of Volkswagen could help me solve my problem with Dade County Water & Sewer?
Cram the entire Customer Service into a VW? No, not exactly.
But VW reminds me of what has created my success all along. And maybe…maybe…it would work with Miami Dade Water & Sewer.
You see they keep billing me hundreds of dollars for a leak they claim I had last year. I never had a leak. At least, that's what the plumber and their own experts who kept coming out to my house said after I called the mayor in desperation.
I mean…I use purified water, and I can shower at the local Spa, but I do prefer a toilet to kitty litter.
When I paid a monthly $100 which I agreed to do while we explore the problem, they came to turn off my water anyway. They claimed they had not received my $100 good will payment. Funny. They cashed the check.
The nice Mayor's office got DCWS to change the meter. Then DCWS said, I still owed more money. Thanks for fixing the leak.
There was no leak. I didn't fix anything. They turned off my water again last Thursday.
Maybe Volkswagen can help me. God knows, I need a car too. And the message of the Volkswagen initiative and mine are just about the same.
The VW initiative is about FUN. They've shown that FUN can change people's behavior. They must not be having enough fun at Dade County Water and Sewer. I must think of something and save them.
Truth In Lending came to my rescue. They paid the alleged Water bill. The water was turned back on late Friday afternoon.
Are we having FUN yet?
No. Now DCWS wants another $160 by December 7 for "penalties."
Goodness, they must not have any fun working at DCWS at all. They should learn a thing or two from Volkswagen.
VW has shown that FUN changes the behavior. If you haven't seen Piano Stairs yet…take a quick peek at this:
So what next? How can I get to Dade County Water & Sewer and make their life more fun so they have better things to do than this silly (and costly) stuff? Do I go dance on John Renfrow's desk? I think he should personally answer my letter. Maybe I should send it daily – hundreds of copies:
Why is DCWS so anxious to go to court? I've tried so hard to avoid this. Let's face it, Miami Vice has more demanding problems than my toilet.
But if I must go to court, and pay $700/hr, I'm still going to ask the judge to order DCWS to have more fun. They must be suffering from LackofFunitis.
That must be the problem. Because there is no leak. Because there is no reason to be this inefficient. Because there is no censured censured censured. Imagine how many people Dade County Water and Sewer have offended. Stress is toxic. You give it out, you breath it in.
I'd like to save Dade County Water and Sewer. I'd like all the money this has cost me back so I can share some fun and steward the money for good, like I do with all my work at www.VivianGreene.com. I'd like to see a world full of Volkswagen drivers with flowers on their cars.
Everyone should have more fun. Dance, eat, drink, and remarry (renew vows or new partner or new water meter). Like my book says: Just Get Up And Dance!
What a court order! Give Dade County Water and Sewer a sentence of 30 minutes a day to dance Disco con Salsa.
Maybe Gloria Estefan, or KC (he lives in my neighborhood) can help me? Volkswagen has the right idea. And as Marie McDonnell from Truth In Lending said, "The city has it wrong."
As I always say, "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass…it's about learning to dance in the rain."
My thanks to Volkswagen for their shining example. I hope Kisses™ can save Dade County Water and Sewer.
Kisses® are drawn with their eyes covered because
"All that is real is seen with the heart."
Kisses™ and Volkswagen To The Rescue!

As an extra precaution, some of our suppliers have tested their products and have produced clarification that none of the products supplied to us are affected in any way."

WineStyles, in Lakewood Ranch, takes a customer-friendly approach to wine, displaying bottles by style, also known as flavor.
Every day is a tasting day, and customers are invited to taste 20 different open wines at the wine bar to ensure a great purchase.
WineStyles owner Carmen T. Spagnola grew up drinking wine in an Italian family. He has always had an interest in home wine making, is involved in the American Wine Society and taught wine-appreciation classes at community colleges in Connecticut, before moving to Lakewood Ranch three years ago. Because the Southern climate doesn't lend itself to growing wine grapes, Spagnola decided to switch to selling wine.
Here are his recommendations for the best bottle of wine within each of the three white-wine- and three red-wine categories the store features, as well as the flavor notes for each category.
A refreshing, clean, acidic white wine with typical aromas/flavors of lemon, lime, grapefruit, apple and/or pear.
Bell Sauvignon Blanc ($14.99)
"(This is) my No. 1 recommendation in the store. This wine goes great with salads, white fish and lighter prepared shellfish (not creamy or buttery) and some Oriental, Thai and Japanese meals. This category of wine will work before dinner, without food, too."
A soft, creamy white wine in an easy-to-drink style with typical aromas/flavors of honey, vanilla, melon and a little toast for oak-treated wines.
Kung Fu Girl Riesling ($16.99)
"This Riesling is great on its own, although it's a more food-pairing wine than a crisp Sauvignon Blanc. It goes well with Asian dishes, chicken or fish prepared a little heavier."
An oaky, buttery, lavish-style white wine with aromas/flavors of vanilla, toast, caramel, tropical fruit, peaches and baking spices.
Verget Bourgogne 'Terroirs de Côte d'Or' ($19.99)
"This is a great white burgundy and drinks like a $30-plus bottle of wine. It goes great with oilier fish, pork and turkey — it's perfect for Thanksgiving day, great with the buttery turkey."
A jammy, easy-to-drink style of red wine with aromas/flavors of raspberry, strawberry, vanilla and blueberry.
Atteca ($17.99)
"This Spanish wine is a perfect example of a beautiful, full-bodied red wine that gives you fresh fruit in the mouth. It's also 100% Garnacha, which is a widely planted grape in all of Europe. It is labeled 'old vine' because the vines that produce the grapes are between 80 and 120 years old. Vines that old produce the grapes at a lower rate, but better quality."
A round, velvety, sometimes subtle red wine with aromas/flavors of cherry, berries, herbs and earth.
Volver ($16.99)
"This Spanish wine is the No. 1 selling wine since we've opened — both by glass and by the bottle. It's a tremendous value. It's wonderful with pasta, ribs, meat — it's smooth and mellow, so it will match with any type of meat."
An intense, complex, full-bodied red wine with aromas/flavors of chocolate, coffee, black pepper, licorice, dark berries, cherries, plums and dried fruit.
Plungerhead Zinfandel ($19.99)
"This is a step up from the regular Plungerhead. It's from old vines and also from Dry Creek Valley, which is in northwest Sonoma County, so all the fruit comes from Dry Creek Valley. It's a full-bodied wonderful example of a great California Zinfandel. It's great for pairing with pasta dishes with some heat, barbeque with a little spice and all red meats."
Carmen T. Spagnola explains the "20-minute rule" when serving wine. Make sure to serve wines at the proper temperature, which is 62 to 64 degrees for reds and 42 to 44 degrees for whites. If you're going to have a dinner party, put the white wines in the refrigerator the day before and then pull them out 20 minutes before you plan to pour them. On the other hand, place red wines in the refrigerator 20 minutes before pouring.
"We tend to drink whites too cold and reds too warm," Spagnola says. "When it's too cold, you won't pick up the flaws or the great qualities, especially in the nose. When reds are too warm, it's going to taste hot in your mouth because of the alcohol."
Spagnola advises not to be intimidated by any wine and to drink what you like.
"Be open to tasting, because the more you try, the more you'll learn," he says.

Small Enough to Fail: Community Banks in the Bailout
On Wednesday, June 10, 2009, EPI hosted the first of a series of forums on the financial crisis.
Featured speakers:Read more »
The Treasury has committed itself to a policy of openness in the funds it lends as part of the bailout, but concern is prevalent about the lack of openness around the Federal Reserve's lending. Is the Fed open enough? If not, what needs to change? If so, why should the Fed not become more open?
Here are the thoughts from this week's experts:
Dean Baker, CEPR
Why Does the Fed Operate in the Dark? »
Anthony Gregory, Campaign for Liberty
Seeing Through the Federal Reserve »
President Obama has made an impressive commitment to run an open administration, posting contracts and spending on the Internet wherever possible. For some reason, there has been no effort to extend this openness to the Fed.
This creates a bizarre disjuncture in public policy. When the Treasury loans money to a troubled bank or other institution through the TARP or its various derivative programs, there is a clear paper trail. Reporters, analysts, and advocates can look up how much money was lent, under what terms and what the government received as collateral. However, when the Fed makes a loan, there is no record whatsoever. Read more »

Sorry, this story is unavailable
@tha_mai you should know by now that Trinats never lets the truth get in the way of a good story and actually he is probably right the Wannabies do have a good record when they play the AB's with SBW, they only lost by 16 and 14 ponts respectively, not the usual thumping.
Posted 23:29 28th June 2012
Will we see SBW target an Origin series win for his journeyman CV?
Presumably he's met the 3 year stand down period for international rugby league re: Nation swapping. The residency criteria is very very ambiguous and as such provides scope of liberal interpretation.
Posted 11:13 28th June 2012
Trinats . Your love /envy of SBW and King Ritchie continues to shine through in your posts .
Posted 07:42 28th June 2012
Trinats2 says...we want him in the ABs (great record for Aus when he plays !!!!)
? He has only played Australia twice in his 17-test career (6 Aug win 30-14 and 16 Oct 2011 win 20-6), on as a sub both times (Nonu rules!), and on a winning team twice.
He has only been on a losing AB team only once in his career, v SA 20 Aug 2011. A 94% win record.
So, back to your argument ???
Posted 02:09 28th June 2012
Sonny's gone, but in his short stint in rugby he has revolutionised the way the offload is used in Union. It has become the main weapon for the all blacks and chiefs, enabling them to get behind defences. Love him or hate him, you have to admit his awesomeness, and he is without a doubt the best 12 in NZ at the moment. I have sincere hope of him returning for the next WC, he'll have to start at the bottom just as he did when he returned to play for Canterbury.
@fattysock i believe Nonu's absence from the Irish series was to freshen him up for the championship. The AB coaches still rate him highly and i think he will be back in 12 for the Championship. DC at 12 isn't an option with how the ABs play. That would require a deeper back line alignment, something not in the ABs vocab. I can't think of any others that were near his level as you say.
Posted 23:26 27th June 2012
How was his world cup ? Thought he came on for a minute, text book or his "trade mark" shoulder charge, and spent the rest in the bin ! I forgot he was playing in the WC until that.
Oh, I left out the powerhouse of rugby Japan, where he shined !!!! then again, I didn't watch it.
Joking aside, I do think he is a good player, just not a great which he is built up to be, bit like your winger "the new Lomu" 3 tries one week against a poor Irish team, and he was poor the next against a good team effort from Ireland, then dropped.
As for playing for Aus, only Kiwi good enough was Brad Thorn (and maybe, just maybe McCaw (I did say "was" !!!!!). I'd also take Kaino, the Samoan (American) but NZ got him first !!!
Only game I saw him for the Chiefs was against an injury hit Reds team, and we all know the result there !!!!
Posted 22:13 27th June 2012
If he DOES announce that he's leaving, would you still pick him for the Rugby Championship??
I don't know if I would. It would be a kick in the nuts to Nonu for one thing...
And as good as SBW seems to be getting at rugby, we have other players who aren't far off his level. Heck, even a shift from 10->12 for DC while bringing in Cruden would be fine for me if we are struggling for other options at 12.
Posted 17:28 27th June 2012
Money Bill Williams living up to his name, he'll be gone off the radar in 3 or 4 years as soon as his form dips slightly as he shows no loyalty to club or country and can expect the same in return. He's a fad, a designer good - disposable.
Posted 14:40 27th June 2012
Shut it Trinats... if he was a Dingo "shrimp on the barbie" Larry he would be the 1st choice wannabies centre by miles. Hes played damn brilliantly all season for the Chiefs too.
Oh and he won a World Cup.
Posted 14:22 27th June 2012
The real shame here is that league, great sport that it is, is only played by 2-3 countries, which means a waste of Sonny's talent. It's a sport which is pretty much going nowhere , a lot like Australian rugby which is nearly dead, and would be if it weren't for the imports... even their U20s are declining year on year. Hope SBW can bring a few smiles and love to the place, even if he is cashing a massive Australian cheque and crushing it with your ladies.
Posted 12:25 27th June 2012
Its common knowledge in rugby league circles that he will be at Bondi Junction next year.
Posted 10:55 27th June 2012
Pity he is going back to League, where the money is. As an Aussie we want him in the ABs (great record for Aus when he plays !!!!)
But after the expense of the RWC (and I'm not saying pay outs to refs....) NZ can't afford him.
"It's been pleasing [in the recent series] to know that I can compete at that level."
Two good games at HOME against Ireland and Japan doesn't show you can compete at Int level (maybe for NZ standards).
Money Bill.....................goooooooone
Posted 10:19 27th June 2012
Even if he does leave he may well come back, after all he is still only 26. His new thing is to sign 1 year contracts which is a good idea for him as he really got caught out with the long term contract he signed at the Bulldogs & is a pro in 3 different sports.
The Rugby League World cup is next year, so if the rumours are true I'm sure he'd have that in mind. Wherever he goes I'll be supporting.
Posted 10:17 27th June 2012
if his coach and the nzru ceo know what he's doing and won't say i think thats a strong indication that he's going. otherwise no one would have any problem just saying yeah he's going to stay.
Posted 08:50 27th June 2012
Sonny Bill is a media magnet.
The hype that followed him from league was huge.
He is now starting to deliver on the field, what his manager and the media, promised off it.
It would be shame for the game if he were to leave now, as I suspect the best is yet to come.

St. Patricks Day Merchandise at Disney Parks
If you're looking forward to celebrating St. Patricks Day it falls on a Saturday this year which gives you the perfect reason to celebrate all day long.
To get in the celebratory mood, Disney Theme Park Merchandise has some new St. Patricks Day items. One of the most noticeable items is an ear hat designed by Disney Design Group Artist Tim Whalen. Tim was asked about the design for the hat.
I used last years ear hat as a starting point for the design, explained Tim. The 2011 hat was popular with guests, so we made a few tweaks, including updating the font used on the hat. We also added an image of Mickey Mouse wearing a mini-bowler hat similar to the mini hat attached to the ear hat.
The Disney Pin Team have released a few new pins and a decorative deluxe lanyard with sublimated printing, there is a Mickey Mouse icon (simple designs are sometimes the best) and the Chip and Dale pin.
Thre will also be a 12-inch Duffy the Disney Bear who is dressed for the holiday. This will be the final year that this version of Duffy will be released. The Duffy team is considering a costume for the 17-inch bear next year.
There is a new womens graphic tee-shirt that features a Mickey Mouse icon comprised of approximately 800 tiny shamrocks and one giant shamrock. Disney Design Group artist Dave Keefer created the mosaic-like design.
There is one item that wont arrive until July and that's a holiday-themed hat.
If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together.......
there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is, even if we're apart...... I'll always be with you.
Winne the Pooh - A A Milne
A friend is a hand that is always holding yours,
no matter how close or far apart you may be.
A friend is someone who is always there and will always, always care.
A friend is a feeling of forever in the heart.

Mar 30, 20120Passion for the sport? There is no passion for the sport here, unless that passion is based upon hate and violence. I am not a fan of hockey, and if this movie is what hockey is about, I never will be. The movie is just violence. It never "becomes" anything else.
Apr 22, 20139A very funny movie that's crude, vulgar, and violent but has a huge heart. They did an excellent job with the casting, Seann William Scott is flawless as the main character and the supporting cast does an outstanding job. Despite all the blood and f-bombs there's a sweet side to this movie that makes it all worth while. So if your a hockey fan or just like a good comedy this is a must watch.
Mar 30, 20126
Aug 14, 20128
Jun 8, 20126Maybe it was because I was pretty intoxicated but I really thought this was hilarious at times. Sean William Scott is one of my favorite comedy actors. Worth 1 buck at a redbox!
Mar 2, 20136It's a pretty enjoyable comedy that it definently worth checking out on Netflix. Only bad things I have to say about it is that it's a little predictable at times and Jay Baruchel is incredibly annoying. Aside from that, It's a solid comedy.
Mar 30, 20128Wow, incredible comedy film, really the performance of Sean William Scott is really funny, the trama is cool, the screenplay is funny. Goon is an incredible and funny film.
May 2, 201210
Jun 10, 20127
Jun 15, 20122
Feb 20, 20139Seann William Scott plays a former bar security guard who is enlisted to join a minor league hockey team as someone to beat the living hell out of other opposing team fighters, a 'goon' as the title would state. Definitely something to check out if you have free time. A great sports comedy that isn't a 'Slap Shot', but instead a one-of-a-kind.
Aug 10, 20126A violent ode to the hockey goon from Apatow writers Evan Goldberg and Jay Baruchel, this film is funny, with some surprising heart for a sports movie.
Nov 5, 20122Sean William Scott is nice, passive and likable. The only problem is this is a comedy and he's not funny the way they wrote him. Neither is anyone else for that matter.
Dec 5, 20127Why hadn't I heard of this film before? I absolutely loved it. A perfect sports-comedy full of violence, language, raunch, blood, and heart, the film's most important and resonant feature. The characters are great. I loved the cast; Seann Willian Scott is better than ever. Good script by Jay Baruchel. The surprise comedy of the year for me!
Apr 21, 20132Goon flops out oafish quirk that doesn't really work as its main selling point. Poor characterisation and predictable story doesn't improve the situation. The film improves at the half way mark but not in the spectacular way necessary to make it particularly good.
40When a film's clichés are so obvious that its cast points them out for you, you've got to wonder how hard it's really trying.
83Goon is a hoot.
78Put on your best Southie accent and say it with me: This film is wicked fahwkin' retahded and I loved it.

Author: Rachel Maddow
Rachel Maddow has hosted the Emmy Award--winning Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC since 2008. Before that, she was at Air America Radio for the duration of that underappreciated enterprise. She has a doctorate in politics from Oxford and a bachelor's degree in public policy from Stanford. She lives in rural western Massachusetts and New York City with her partner, artist Susan Mikula, and an enormous dog.
"Thank Ms. Maddow for picking this and every other fight that Drift provokes. It will be a smarter public debate than the kinds we're used to."--Janet Maslin, New York Times
"A biting, bracing tour of the rise of American military bloat...Her fix-it ideas aren't facile or smiley-faced. They are a coda to the serious project she's taken on--a project that both plays to her persona and gives it new gravitas...Rachel, if you can get those ideas a serious hearing, you will be much more than TV's funniest wonk."--Emily Bazelon, Slate.com
"Maddow's distinctive voice in Drift is highly intelligent, often incredulous and intermittently and humorously profane...Her thesis, which is passionately and effectively articulated, remind[s] us of how far we have drifted from linking the sacrifices of our armed forces around the world to the citizens at home they so selflessly serve... Maddow...[has] provided readers with a timely and perhaps necessary provocation to examine the far-reaching consequences of the American way of war."--Gordon M. Goldstein, Washington Post
"Crosses partisan lines and deals with issues that deserve a healthy debate...A compelling, intelligent read filled with Maddow's trademark wit."--Mary Houlihan, Chicago Sun-Times
"Even though she's an ideological broadcaster, Maddow doesn't resort to demonization and hyperbole. It makes her case much stronger."--Conor Friedersdorf, TheAtlantic.com
"Lively but serious...This book is a reminder that before Maddow became a face on nighttime television, she was a Rhodes scholar who earned a doctorate in politics at Oxford. But Drift is not heavy reading, and her cheerfully snarky voice is instantly recognizable...A thought-provoking and timely book."--Scott Shane, New York Times Book Review
"Full of head-smacking stories about America's military meddling and muddling...Maddow sounds an alarm this country needs to hear more than almost any other." - Catherine Lutz, San Francisco Chronicle"Thoroughly researched...Written in her signature broadcast style--provocative, satirical, passionate-bordering-on-outrage...Progressive fans of her show may already know what to expect. Yet the book still surprises." - Minneapolis Star Tribune
"Recommended reading...There's a deadly serious argument here that deserves way more attention than it gets."--Kevin Drum, MotherJones.com "Engaging but sobering...With the same kind of substance, wit and charge that make her TV show a top-rated Emmy winner, Maddow details how dubious wars, the exploding "privatization" of the military and a superfunded, superpowered security leviathan have drained our resources...Sometimes it takes a gutsy, determined woman--a Nellie Bly, Rachel Carson, Ida Tarbell, Elizabeth Neuffer, Molly Ivins or Rachel Maddow--to hang a literary lantern on a revolting situation." - Austin American-Statesman
"Drift is infused with Maddow's sharp wit and her vast political knowledge. She dexterously reveals how we became the nation that spends more money on militarism then all other nations combined..."The path to American amnesia is worth recalling on this Memorial Day," wrote Tom Englehardt. If you want to jog your memory, I encourage you to dive into Maddow's brilliant testament to remembering." - MsMagazine.com
"Drift is a provocative, important book that displays all the qualities of its author: intelligence, humor, depth, and originality. Maddow raises vital questions about how the American ways of war have changed and endangered our democracy, but she does so without cant or predictability. America's most charismatic liberal has crafted here an argument for skepticism about our military-industrial complex that will persuade many conservatives--a remarkable achievement." - STEVE COLL, author of Ghost Wars
"With her savage wit, dazzling command of facts, and eye for the absurd, Maddow tells the epic story of how American warfare came t - NAOMI KLEIN, author of The Shock Doctrine

Personally, I don't think teachers should friend anyone that is still in high school (or obviously, younger). When they get to college, graduate, or turn 18, you can friend them. I don't think it's so much a matter of "is this weird in a creepy way", but rather you are an adult holding other adult conversations that non-adults shouldn't be privy to.

Harper Conservatives' relentless attack on the internet
Connie Fournier
May 26, 2010
Whether you know it or not, we have a very, very serious problem in Canada right now. As you will see shortly, our government has been chipping away at our internet freedom and privacy in an alarming way. If this doesn't stop, Canadian cyberspace is going to be as tightly controlled as our television and radio airspace under the CRTC.
Alarm bells have been going off for me for awhile now, but even I was shocked when I took all of the government bills regarding the internet and put them in one place. Our freedom is in grave peril!
Below is a list of government bills that were proposed by Harper's Conservatives over the past few years. The bill number is a link to the text of the documents. I have also included the name of the MP who introduced each bill, the status of each bill, and a bit of commentary (from linked sources) that outlines the dangers of each bill.
Please take a good look at this list and pass it along to your friends. We have to stop this before it's too late!
C-22 An Act respecting the mandatory reporting of Internet child pornography by persons who provide an Internet service (Protecting Children from Online Sexual Exploitation Act)
Indroduced by: Rob Nicholson
Status: Passed first reading on May 6, 2010
Bill C-58, reintroduced
C-27 An Act to promote the efficiency and adaptability of the Canadian economy by regulating certain activities that discourage reliance on electronic means of carrying out commercial activities, and to amend the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission Act, the Competition Act, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act and the Telecommunications Act
(Electronic Commerce Protection Act)
Introduced by: Tony Clement
Status: Passed Third Reading, Reintroduced on May 25, 2010 after prorogue
The ECPA designates the CRTC as the main regulatory agency responsible for pursuing administrative penalties against those who violate the Act (clause 14). The CRTC is given numerous powers in relation to this mandate, including the right to cause a demand to be served on a telecommunications provider to verify compliance with the ECPA, and to prevent disclosure of that demand for the purposes of protecting an investigation (clause 15).(19) The telecommunications provider, which is required to preserve data for the purposes of complying with the demand, is entitled to apply for a review if either the preservation of data or non disclosure would place an undue burden upon it (clause 16).
The CRTC also has the power to require that a person produce a document in his or her possession or control, or to require preparation of a document based on data, information or documents in the possession or control of that person (clause 17). Again, anyone subject to such a requirement has the right to apply for review on the grounds of unreasonableness or the possibility of disclosing privileged information, or to seek conditions on the disclosure (clause 18). The CRTC may also apply to a justice of the peace for a warrant to enter a place of business pursuant to the ECPA, and unless the warrant contains different conditions, may then examine anything found there, use any means of communication found there, and examine or use any computer systems, documents, and copying equipment found there. It may also remove, for copying or examination, anything found at the place it has entered, and it may prohibit or limit access to the place itself. The owner of the place is required to give all reasonably required assistance to the CRTC under such circumstances (clause 19).

C-47 An Act regulating telecommunications facilities to support investigations (Technical Assistance for Law Enforcement in the 21st Century Act) -
Introduced by: Peter Van Loan
Status: Passed second reading, died in committee due to prorogue
Technical Assistance for Law Enforcement in the 21st Century Act (Bill C-47) will require Internet Service Providers (ISP's) and other "telecommunications service providers" to install equipment facilitating the interception of communications, and to allow police access, without a warrant, to the personal information of users including names, addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses and internet protocol addresses.
Section 16 of the Technical Assistance for Law Enforcement in the 21st Century Act provides that the Commissioner of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Director of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service and the head of a police service constituted under the laws of a province may designate a limited number of persons who may request particular personal information from a telecommunications service provider.
http://www.slaw.ca/2009/06/24/canada%E2 ... -concerns/
C-46
Investigative Powers for the 21st Century Act An Act to amend the Criminal Code, the Competition Act and the Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters Act
Introduced by: Rob Nicholson
Status: Passed second reading, in committee, died due to prorogation
It is pretty much exactly what law enforcement has been demanding and privacy groups have been fearing. It represents a reneging of a commitment from the previous Public Safety Minister on court oversight and will embed broad new surveillance capabilities in the Canadian Internet.
- ISPs will be required to install surveillance capabilities in their networks.
- Second, the bill requires all ISPs to surrender customer name, address, IP address, and email address information upon request without court oversight.
- Police will be able to obtain transmission data about Internet-based messaging.
- Police can obtain a preservation order that would require ISPs to preserve (ie. not delete) data related to a particular subscriber or even a specific communication.
- There is an expansion of the police power to obtain a tracking warrant, by allowing police to "remotely activate existing tracking devices that are found in certain types of technologies such as cell phones."
- The law expands the computer virus provision in the Criminal Code and opens the door to greater international cooperation of cybercrime enforcement.
C-58 An Act respecting the mandatory reporting of Internet child pornography by persons who provide an Internet service
(Child Protection Act (Online Sexual Exploitation))
Introduced by: Rob Nicholson
Status: Passed second reading, died in committee due to prorogue
The bill extends beyond just Internet service providers by including those who provide Internet access, hosting, or email services. In other words, services such as Google, Hotmail, and Facebook are all covered.
This bill marks the second piece of legislation this year that opens the door to far greater ISP policing and monitoring of their networks. ISPs are quietly being deputized as law enforcement assistants, with new requirements to install surveillance capabilities and provide information on their subscribers and their activities.
Earlier this year, the government introduced lawful access legislation (Bills C-46 and C-47) that places Internet providers at the very centre of online crime investigations. The bills establish technological surveillance requirements with the government promising funding to offset the new equipment costs. They also feature mandatory disclosure of customer data, including name, address, IP address, and email address upon law enforcement request without court oversight. The bills even create the possibility of law enforcement paying ISPs for their time and trouble in handing over subscriber data. http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/4594/82/
C-21 An Act to amend the Canadian Human Rights Act -
Introduced by: Chuck Strahl
Status: Royal Assent
This Act removed the section of the Canadian Human Rights Act that exempted people under the Indian Act. Basically, Canadians who were fortunate enough to have protection from Section 13, can now be targets. This is the Bill that MPs were told to refer to if constituents asked about CHRA reform. The "talking points" memo created a stir on the internet at the time.
http://forlifeandfamily.blogspot.com/20 ... ights.html
C-61 An Act to amend the Copyright Act
Introduced by: Jim Prentice
Status: First Reading, Being reintroduced with an intent to be passed in June: http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/5008/125/
"The effects of a draconian copyright bill in Canada can be far reaching. Things Canadians take for granted, like copying your music from your computer to your music player and vice versa, can be deemed illegal with this new bill," Gary told TorrentFreak.
"ISPs can be forced to handover private information of users on a whim without due process. They may be further encouraged to throttle P2P traffic, even for entirely legitimate uses like game files distribution. The new bill also is unlikely to provide fair exceptions for breaking DRM for purposes that doesn't violate copyright, which unfairly prohibits one's tinkering with electronics he owns," Gary added.
Gary's warnings are justified. Although it is not completely clear what the details of the new bill will be, it is expected that it will be the Canadian equivalent of the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act. This means that copyright takedown request become a censorship tool while consumers lose several 'fair use' rights.
C-44 An Act to amend the Canadian Human Rights Act
Introduced by: Jim Prentice
Status:Died in Committee
Details: Reintroduced as C-21 (see above)

Initiative Takes on Bullying in SchoolsBullying called "national epidemic"ANCHORAGE - Anchorage community leaders said it takes an army of people to battle bullying. It's being called a national epidemic and experts said no community is immune. According to the Centers for Disease Control, 160,000 kids stay home from school because they fear being bullied. Also, victims are up to 9 times more likely to attempt suicide than other non-victims. "It means respect," said 12-year-old Elizabeth Pope. Her path at Champs Martial Arts Academy began 2 years ago. "I used to be one of those small kids sitting in the corner, hunched over, very quiet, but now with tae kwon do, I have been here so long if you just see me walking in a grocery store, you will see that I walk straight and keep the right posture," said Pope. "I just have confidence." But she wasn't always this confident. "I was above average and people didn't except that," said Pope, who transferred to Holy Rosary Academy from Kincaid Elementary. "They would call me a nerd. So I decided to come to tae kwon do to learn how to defend myself." Pope is just one of many kids who understand what it means to be bullied. The Midtown based non-profit Stone Soup Group (SSG) offers tips on how to battle bullying -- with an emphasis on helping children with disabilities. "They are just easier targets, children with disabilities, especially the more noticeable ones; they are just an easy target," said Mandy Cleveland, a parent pavigator at SSG. "Or their peers might not know why they are different, they might just get a feeling that they are different and start bullying them because of that. " According to SSG, children with disabilities are up to three times more likely to be bullied. They said bullies are everywhere. At Champ, instructors said it begins with developing one crucial asset. "Their tae kwon do training will help them to, in our program, help them to build a great confidence level," said Master Sung Son Yu. "It's because they are healthy, and strong, and have a positive, mental, winning attitude - yes I can." It is a step-by-step process, that doesn't always involve confrontation. "One, they need to learn how to stay out of trouble; two, they will learn how to walk away from a situation and how to talk their way out of a situation; three, they will learn to make a new smile so they can make a lot more friends rather than enemies," said Yu. Pope said she has learned how to be strong mentally and physically, and hopes to help others win the fight against bullies too. According to the Cyberbullying Research Center, it's not just happening in the schoolyard. They said the battle is being waged online -- using sites like Facebook and Youtube. You have indicated this comment should be removed.said on Wednesday, Oct 10 at 1:08 PM Anyone found guilty of bullying should be expelled from school for the year. If they repeat , kick them out forever..Let them try living in ignorance.. Inappropriate? Alert Us! said on Wednesday, Oct 10 at 9:45 AM Common nature of all bullies is that they are all natural cowards of some sort who picked on someone they understand to be weaker then they are. Being a military brat, I was often a "new kid" in school and often targeted to be bullied until I dealt with these guys in the language they understand. Then I was left alone to do my thing. This isn't something you can talked about or tell about. It human nature we are dealing with. Kids who are bullies are no more different then kids with red haired or hyperactive or suffering from fear of heights. Bullies are wired in such a way and chances are, they will be bullies as an adult. Bullying requires a pro-active stance and nothing more or nothing less will stop it. Ever think why kids with disability are picked on?? Inappropriate? Alert Us! Add a commentMost Popular

Welcome! Nanopaprika was cooked up by Hungarian chemistry PhD student in 2007. The main idea was to create something more personal than the other nano networks already on the Internet. Community is open to everyone from post-doctorial researchers and professors to students everywhere.
There is only one important assumption: you have to be interested in nano!
