5 habits of the rich that you can afford, too
Wealthy people routinely do things that most poor people don't do -- and a writer says adopting some of these habits could be life-changing.
This post comes from Gerri Detweiler at partner site Credit.com.
Eat less junk food. Exercise daily. Sounds like a recipe for getting fit, right? Those habits may also be key to becoming financially healthy, says Tom Corley, who interviewed 233 wealthy individuals and 128 poor ones during a five-year period, gathering data on more than 200 activities each group engaged in. He shares his findings in his book "Rich Habits -- The Daily Success Habits of Wealthy Individuals."
"What I found was that there was a difference a lot like the size of the Grand Canyon between the daily activities of the wealthy and the daily activities of poor people," he said in a recent interview for my radio program, Talk Credit Radio.
Here are some of the habits Corley found to be common among wealthy people.
No. 1: Rich people eat less junk food
Corley found that 97% of poor people "ate more than 300 junk food calories each day whereas 70% of the wealthy didn't." That's not surprising, considering junk food is cheap. How often do you see "buy one, get one free" specials for organic produce versus chips? But eating junk food results in an increase in the number of calories you consume during each day, which affects your weight and ultimately your health. Health issues, such as diabetes and heart disease, interfere with your ability to make money and medical expenses can put a greater strain on your finances.
No. 2: They exercise regularly
Again, the rich subjects he interviewed generally have healthier habits. "Seventy-six percent of the wealthy individuals exercise aerobically at least four days a week versus 23% for the poor." He added that this habit, along with eating better, is key. "To wealthy people, health is everything," he said in our interview. "If they're healthy, they can work. They have more energy. They work longer hours. They have fewer sick days, it increases productivity and it's a lot driven by their desire to be successful."
No. 3: The wealthy don't procrastinate
They are goal-oriented and accomplish things, he notes in his book. Breaking this bad habit is crucial to success, says Corley. "When the thought of putting off something enters your mind, immediately cast this thought out by saying, 'Do It Now.' Repeat these three words a hundred times a day if necessary," he writes.
No. 4: They keep learning
One of the "eye-openers," he says, was discovering that 88% of the wealthy people he interviewed read 30 minutes or more each day for education or for career-related reasons versus 2% for poor people. "I even dug a little deeper," he adds. "I found that 76% of the wealthy read two or more education-related, self-help related books each month and the poor didn't. So there's a lot of this emphasis on education, and reading, and self-improvement, improving the vocabulary."
No. 5: Rich people nurture relationships
"Successful people are students of relationship building," he writes. "They faithfully return phone calls right away. They continuously seek out ways to improve their relationships." Remembering birthdays -- even just to make a happy birthday call first thing in the day -- networking, and sharing milestones are regular habits for them. For example, he found that 79% of the wealthy network five hours or more each month versus 16% for the poor.
If reading this list leaves you feeling overwhelmed, Corley reminded me that you don't have to implement every single one of the dozens of rich habits he uncovered. Each rich habit was intentionally created to be what he calls a "keystone habit." Keystone habits are unique in that they affect other habits. He says they have a "multiplier effect" that makes them even more powerful. For example, one good keystone habit, like exercising aerobically 20 to 30 minutes each day, can help eliminate other bad habits like overeating, eating junk food, smoking cigarettes and consuming too much alcohol.
Corley says that "one or two rich habits is often all it takes to turn your life completely around and raise you out of poverty and onto a new, happy life."
And you don't have to be perfect. When I responded to one of his tweets about the junk food habit by confessing my habit of eating some kind of chocolate virtually every day, he tweeted back, "If it's any consolation I am a chocolataholic. Some Poverty Habits are just not worth giving up."

I agree if you're wealthy you have more time to de-stress, cultivate relationships, read self-help books.
But I also know it's an easy hole to fall into, using lack of money as an excuse for eating poorly, wasting time on self-pity and using after-work hours for staying drunk and high.
It all boils down to the fact that the one you can really count on (and blame) is yourself and it's your choice on how you choose to deal with life.
Growing up poor taught me some life lessons, old habits are hard to change. Living pay-check to pay-check leaves little time to do the wonderful things described in the article. I do agree that lifestyles that mimic those described are correct and healthy. The greasiest saltiest fast food joints are usually located in poorer neighborhoods. I love those foods and after a heart attack and 4 by passes, I walk away. Eating fresh and wholesome foods costs more and takes more effort. Most of us feel trapped into living and eating the way that we do. My advice would be to do the best that you can to improve eating habits and try to change bad habits.
I am 70 and worked with my hands and back over 40 years.
I pay $10/cord to the BLM or Forest Svc to harvest my own firewood. I get exercise and fresh air while harvesting it and splitting it, and it is my primary source of heat.
I buy a fishing license for $20/year and eat fresh trout, bass, walleye, perch all year long (again, more exercise). I trade fish for fresh produce and game meat.
No, believe me I'm NO WHERE close to "wealthy" but I have all the riches of the earth at my feet.
Why would I spend a ridiculous amount of money on gyms and processed or fast foods?
Sounds like a high degree of common sense intelligence to me. Can you believe that
fundamental rules of survival still work?
So, to get everybody who's not 'rich' rerouted: advise them it take's regular and more
exercise, fewer-to-no bad-nutritional foods, a goal, a schedule, attention to detail,
"do-it-now" rejection of procrastination, courtesy, conscious networking development,
and a genuine weekly commitment to formal continuing education (with actual book
reading scholarship) to become overcome poverty and access wealth.
Seems like commencement speakers won't be needed too much longer!
"The last time I looked, a pound of carrots was 99 cents and a bag of potato chips was $3.99.
I agree if you're wealthy you have more time to de-stress, cultivate relationships, read self-help books.
But I also know it's an easy hole to fall into, using lack of money as an excuse for eating poorly, wasting time on self-pity and using after-work hours for staying drunk and high.
It all boils down to the fact that the one you can really count on (and blame) is yourself and it's your choice on how you choose to deal with life."
Don't you wish people would use this same approach when it comes to health care?
This attitude is so right it would keep government out of all of our lives.
Just noticing the benefits of this logic.
My husband and I didn't have a pot to cook in when we got married. We saved money by being frugal.
My parents had lived through the depression and never forgot it. We learned the difference in need and want from them. We did well, but are far from rich but also far from poor.
I mention that so you won't think I am making excuses. Much of your life is decided before you are born. A lot depends on the financial, mental and physical health of your parents.

Startup of the Week - Jump On Flyaways
Calgary Herald | May 28, 2014
This week we talked to Roger Jewett, founder of Jump On Flyaways an online platform that offers discounted weekend fares on direct flights from idle aircrafts of charter airlines.
Will Calgarians 'jump on' chance to invest in discount flight service? (VIDEO)
CTV Calgary | April 24, 2014
CEO of a Calgary-based company believes his business is the first in North America to sell stock through crowdfunding.
A flight deal is announced at a great low fare.
The "Jumping Point" shows you how many "Jumpers" are needed to make the flight a "GO."
Jumpers reserve a seat with their credit card info, but do not pay yet.
Jumpers share with their network to help fill up the flight.
When the Jumping Point is reached the flight is a "GO" and Jumpers' credit cards are processed.
Jumpers enjoy a convenient weekend getaway at a great low fare!
Spread the word
To make a Jump On flight happen, we need to have enough people on board to make it a "GO." That's where YOU come in. By sharing the deal with your friends, you help promote the flight and get those flyers in their seats. And you can feel good about helping make the flight a GO...and helping your friends save money!

Giving Runners The Finger - Hospital Ad Spoofs Chariots Of Fire
It's that classic scene again. Bare feet splash through the surf, as white-clad men run in slow motion along a windswept beach. But as the iconic music kicks in, it's clear something is not quite right.
These men are far too old and out of shape to be athletes. This isn't Chariots Of Fire, it's a very good spoof of the classic film, and it's advertising the most unlikely of things.
The men huff and puff their way across the sand; they're not running for fun. They're running away from something scary. As the largest of the lads stops to catch his breath, we can see what he's running from.
Catching up with the gang is a giant finger in a doctor's coat. This scares the big lad enough to get him running again. The text explains why he's so scared of the giant digit, "if you're over 40, don't run away from the prostate exam".
Which is sensible advice, until you consider the eye-watering size of that finger. We doubt that the ad for A.C. Camargo cancer hospital will have men running to make appointments.
Produced by JWT USA, the ad is set to run in Brazil and Latin America. Launched yesterday, the ad has already attracted nearly 400 views and has been making appearances in articles and on blogs.
The ad is dispensing sound medical advice, but in a buttock-clenchingly scary way.

Matte Kudasai
|"Matte Kudasai"
|Single by King Crimson
|from the album Discipline
|Elephant Talk
|September 1981
|Progressive rock, psychedelic rock, soft rock, new wave
|Warner Bros.
|King Crimson, Rhett Davies
|King Crimson singles chronology
"Matte Kudasai" is a single by the progressive rock band King Crimson, released in 1981. Its tracks are from the album Discipline (1981). "Matte Kudasai" evolved from another song recorded by The League of Gentlemen called "Northa Kudasai".
The latest versions of Discipline contain two versions of "Matte Kudasai". On the original releases, just one version was included. That version omitted a guitar part by Robert Fripp. "Matte Kudasai (alternative version)" has the guitar part included.
Adrian Belew applies a slide and echo to his guitar to simulate the sound of seagulls at least twice in the song. Once in the beginning and, again, near the end.
"Matte Kudasai" means "please wait" in Japanese.
Track listing[edit]
- "Matte Kudasai" (special mix) (Adrian Belew, Bill Bruford, Robert Fripp, Tony Levin)
- "Elephant Talk" (Belew, Bruford, Fripp, Levin)
As of 1 April 2010, Amazon.com lists at least 6 covers of this song in their MP3 collection: Most recently by Birdsong at Morning from the album Vigil, another by Jennifer Faust from the album Light As a Feather, Stiff As a Board and one by Complexblue from the album Knot the Thought That Counts. There is also an acoustic cover in the language of Catalan (named "Mate Kudasai") recorded live by singer Gerard Quintana, which can be found in his 2005 album Per un tros de cel.
On 7 February 2011, Kurt Elling released the album The Gate, with a version of the song as the opening track.
Mr. McFall's Chamber covered the song on its 2001 album Upstart Jugglers.
On 20 April 2011, k.d. lang and her band the Siss Boom Bang covered the song as part of her concert at the BBC Radio Theater. The audio and video of that performance were broadcast on 21 April 2011 on BBC Radio 2. Lang noted in her introduction to the song that it was influential on the sound of her fifth album, Ingenue.
In late 2005, Voiceprint released the first Crimson Jazz Trio album, The King Crimson Songbook, Volume One with a well-received instrumental version of the song, featuring fretless bass work by Tim Landers. The Crimson Jazz Trio was a short-lived jazz trio conceived by former King Crimson drummer Ian Wallace and pianist Jody Nardone. The trio's brief existence was prematurely ended by Wallace's death in February of 2007.
- Robert Fripp – Roland G-303 guitar synthesizer controller, Roland GR-300 guitar synthesizer
- Adrian Belew – guitar, vocals
- Tony Levin – Music Man Stingray 4 bass
- Bill Bruford – drums

Pinpointing Preservation
Historic sites in Georgia are just a click away with a geographic information system Web site developed and maintained by UGA
Looking for a historic home or a Civil War battleground? Now you can find it from home with the help of a geographic information system network developed by UGA's Carl Vinson Institute of Government.
The natural archaeological and historic resources geographic information system (NAHRGIS), launched earlier this year, is an interactive Web-based registry cataloging information about the natural, archaeological and historic resources of Georgia.
"You only need two things to access the system: the Internet and a relatively high-speed connection," says Rowe Bowen, section chief for cultural resources at the Georgia Department of Transportation.
Historic preservation graduate student Chris Daniel takes notes from a tombstone in the cemetery at Harmony Hall Baptist Church in Hall County.
The program, which was originally generated by the DOT to help with their research, turned into a public service with the help of Internet technology experts at the Institute of Government. The project was paid for with federal DOT grants.
Visitors to the site are able to search from a database of 80,000 historic structures. State government officials, who need more detail in their work, also have access to archaeological sites.
"Let's say you wanted to know where all the historic cemeteries were in your home county; you could get on NAHRGIS to find out," says Melissa Roberts, coordinator of Findit, an organization within the College of Environment and Design that has been identifying locations to include on the Web site. "There are lots of cemetery buffs out there who will thoroughly enjoy the site. And, if you're more inclined to search for historic houses, it's very easy to locate the oldest site in a county."
Users also may access the site for help in tracking genealogy and applying for historic preservation grants, says Eric McRae, associate director of Internet Technology Outreach Services at the Institute of Government.
Students working with Findit have spent eight years surveying property in Georgia counties, compiling data on as many as 600 buildings and places, including bridges, schoolhouses and land. The "living system," as Bowen calls it, can be constantly updated. In fact, nearly 100 edits a day are made to the site.
"The most accurate information is always available because of the Web-based editing capabilities," Bowen says.
"After working with this project for over 10 years, it has become very special to me. If we get the word out and people take advantage of it, I will be very pleased… It is information the everyday person doesn't usually get to see."

If Ridley Jones had slept ten minutes later or had taken the subway instead of waiting for a cab, she would still be living the beautiful lie she used to call her life.

The National Retail Federation says families with school children will spend about $635 on back- to-school supplies.
This total includes shoes, clothes, and electronics, but it's actually about $50 less than last year.
Several Siouxland parents are already trying to tackle their school supply lists.
And, some people said it's difficult to budget before they go shopping, but they try to save when they can.
"They need a lot of the simple supplies like crayons and glue, which is cheap, but then you get into some of the notebooks and binders and stuff like that, and it gets a little bit more expensive," Renae Beeck, of Hinton, IA, said.
"It seems like it gets more expensive each year, so that's why we try to re-use some of the things from last year if we can," Lisa Doelman, of Sioux Center, IA, said.
Doelman, a mother of four, expected to spend about $200 on schools supplies for her kids, but said she ended up spending double that amount.
Renae Beeck said she hopes not to spend more than $80 on her two kids.
Nationwide, back-to-school spending is predicted to exceed $26 billion.

- Summary: Guide Flip as he tries to escape a stellar shockwave after the successful rescue of AMI at the end of The Last Rocket! Brake to dodge asteroids, fill your star meter to warp, and earn gems for upgrades to cover greater distances. Can you outrun the sun?Touch to brake and dodge incoming asteroids but don't delay for too long or the stellar shockwave will overtake Flip! Pluck mini-stars from their asteroid orbit to earn temporary invincibility and jump to warp.

Score distribution:
Positive: 4 out of 7
Mixed: 3 out of 7
Negative: 0 out of 7
Aug 20, 2012The graphics and music are also excellent, and really hit home for someone that grew up with the retro classics.
Aug 19, 2012The player has so much more control in Super Crate Box than they do in Flip's Escape, and that's why I think that game works better with the same concept.
Aug 17, 2012Sure, the controls may not be as approachable as its predecessor, and the game may be a bit simplistic for even an endless runner these days, but the implementation is solid, and the look and feel is a perfect carry-over from The Last Rocket.
Aug 20, 2012Like the conventions it bucks, this one escapes the faux pas of a potentially poor start, and gets exponentially better each time you play.
Aug 21, 2012Fans of The Last Rocket will no doubt welcome the chance to continue their travels, but it's a tough sell for those who have come to expect a little more from their runners. Still, it would be churlish not to acknowledge that this is at least something different in a stale genre.
Aug 31, 2012It's good to see Inman opting for something other than a straight sequel, but this is one space odyssey that won't last you much longer than a pleasant hour or so.
Aug 21, 2012A simple arcade throwback that is quite punishing, though exudes a certain charm all the same.

Adalheid had been working on her newest project, organizing the alcohol she'd bought in various nations to sample and critique. It had nothing to do with work but she felt the research skills acquired would somehow assist her in the everyday routine at the office. When the doorbell rang she paused and stared at the door. Who could that be at this hour? A quick glance at her watch suggested it wasn't too late but usually people called.
The girl stood and dusted off her skirt, slipping over to the door and unlatching it.
"…Arthur. I…" Speechless. He just showed up out of the blue. "Come in."
Shoving the paper back into his pocket he stepped through the threshold and looked straight at her. Just as beautiful as he remembered. "Adal….I…I'm sorry I showed up out of the blue. I'm sorry for not calling. I…I'm sorry for everything." He stammered, not sure what to even say, after all it had been months without contact.

Shade dosn't belong to me. I am his trainer. Shade is a talented horse. I had him last year, he fell down our well it was really deep, he was lucky we found him in time. We had to borrow a tractor from our close friend that lives up the hill from us. I healed him by myself for a whole month. I was hard his one back leg was so bad cut up you could see his bone...it was weird. He stayed in our barn day and night for 2 whole weeks then was put out side during the day. The vet told us to put him down but i fought and i knew he wasn't ready. When he came to our place he knew who i was, he follows me around like a little puppy. He will not hurt me again after he had thrown me when he went into a bucking attack and reared up on me, nearly come down on me...were fine. Now we both trust each other and will not hurt me and i will not hurt him. He is one of my favortie horses i trained..

The highest piece of steel in the "Cadillac Range," which will be a 125-foot-tall landmark in Cars Land, was put into place by members of the project's construction team. Cars Land will feature rides, shops and food locations modeled on the Radiator Springs community from the Disney•Pixar motion picture "Cars." (Paul Hiffmeyer/Disneyland)

Sad to learn that Sir Patrick Moore has sadly died earlier today. A truly inspirational broadcaster. He always struck me as a gentleman, and perhaps the last of his breed. Rest in Peace Sir Patrick. Rest in Peace.
A sad day at the passing on an iconic figure in astronomy who brought to the masses the mysteries of the universe. Its good to see his legacy lives on in the likes of Brian Cox and Brian May.
I think Brian May summed it up superbly - "Patrick is irreplaceable. There will never be another Patrick Moore. But we were lucky enough to get one."
One of the last great gentleman amateurs: a sad loss indeed.
He will be sorely missed, not just by the astronomical fraternity, but by all those to whom he made the universe accessible.
The Sky at Night has always been required viewing, and while it was usually shunted to obscure times of the programming schedule, I've only missed a handful in recent years.
He presented me one of his books for winning a school prize once, years ago, and he was fascinating to chat to. Encouraging and unendingly enthusiastic, he was never mean with time, help and advice.
He can be with Lorna once more. Rest in peace, Sir Patrick.
Quote: like a trouper he kept on going
To have been the presenter of the world's longest running TV programme with the same presenter throughout its run is one heck of an achievement, all the more so for the fact that he only ever had to miss one episode through illness.
He had quality's that are becoming so rare today, he not only loved his subject but was so wiling to share and combined with high personal integrity
he made astronomy open to anyone who might be interested, I loved "The sky at night" what a true gentleman.
" Though my soul may set in darkness,
it will rise in perfect light.
I have loved the stars too fondly
to be fearful of the night. "
Sarah Williams- The Old Astronomer to His Pupil.
Oh that is really sad news, have not heard the news today and this is the first i have heard of it
He was always amazing on TSAN, so jolly and keen, and with a very dry sense of humour, and always a twinkle in his eye. Have to admit though, i agree with Chris about him struggling, there have been many occasions recently where complete sentences were totally incomprehensible, he had a distinctive way of speaking anyway but recently it was an effort for him i think, but yes, what a trooper, what a star!
RIP Sir Patrick of Moore, the universe wont be the same again.
Very sad news.
I had just watched the latest episode of the Sky at Night yesterday, and thought he was looking better than he had done recently. When I went to my Mum's later she mentioned that he had died.
I must admit he quite scared me when I was younger, but came to appreciate him as I've got older. I think that was because of the rather aggressive impersonations rather than the man himself. I think seeing him on Gamesmaster helped me see him in a different light.
Famously one of the few people to have met both Orville Wright and Neil Armstrong.
An inspiration for so many Astronomers, both professional and those just interested.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This is an excellent school. We moved from Texas and I was concerned that my daughter who was going into the first grade would be ahead and get bored, but that is not the case. She has been challenged and grown tremendously. My son is in the special education here at Grove and literally has the world's best special education teacher. The principal is very dedicated and takes such care with the students. She is an excellent leader. The staff there are wonderful and kind. Overall this is an excellent school and I feel blessed that we stumbled upon it.
My son attended part of 3rd and all of 4th grade here. We have had no complaints , his teacher is wonderful and caring and gave him advanced work to do when he got bored. He is happy and has made some friends there. We are moving and will be in a different school district but Grove will still be dear to our hearts. After looking at the stats compared to other schools in the district it is hard to believe they were not rated at least a 8 or 9.
My son attends Pre-K and my daughter Kindergarten. Both have rapdily advanced far behind imaginable due to their teachers complete involvement in all that they do. The teachers and staff alike are very concerned about the children, and make it known at all times. This is a school that cares, and the students abilities and skills prove it!
My child attended a private pre-K program and attended Grove this year in kindergarten. Although she had some advanced abilities, she was challenged by her teachers and has learned to read this year! She also enjoys art and music and is excited about attending first grade.

Is Your Husband Gay?
Guest blogger Karrine Steffans: It's a strange question but I get it all the time: How can I tell if my husband is gay? The inquiry is simple enough but the answer is complicated. However, there are a few generalizations I'm willing to make.
There are gay men who are married to and have families with women. Some of these women have no idea or have a hunch and choose to ignore it. Some are well aware of their husbands' duplicity and either choose to accept it or find it incredibly erotic and a welcome addition to their sexual habits.
Some of you may be wondering if your husbands' kinky fetishes border on homosexual tendencies.
There is a stark difference between an explorative man, who engages in new and exciting forms of pleasure with his wife, and a man who finds other men sexually attractive and cannot have or enjoy sex unless there is another man, or the thought of one, in the mix.
Still, it is not your man's willingness to let you do anything to, with and for him that makes him sexually duplicitous, but rather, when only a man or thoughts of a man peak his interest and satisfy him in coitus.
Want to get a "straight' answer out of your man? Suggest that you have no issues with two men being together, even as an extramarital activity, and then gauge his reaction. It would be nice to not have to beat around the bush, but if a gay man is married to a woman, obviously he already has an issue with honesty and straightforwardness.
Good luck if this is an issue in your life!
These topics and more can be found in The Vixen Manual: How to Find, Seduce and Keep the Man You Want, July 2009. Visit Karrine.com for more.

RUSSELLVILLE — Police said a routine traffic stop to ask for information ended up with the man being arrested on drug charges.
Martin "Bop" Hill, 42, 1013 S. Washington Ave., Russellville, is charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance, unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia, attempting to elude police and driving under the influence of a controlled substance, Russellville Police Chief Chris Hargett said today.
Hill was arrested Monday afternoon after officers tried to make a routine traffic stop.
Investigator Sgt. Joe Hargett said officers were trying to locate someone else and tried to stop Hill to see if he knew anything about the person.
"When they tried to stop him, he took off and led them on a short car chase, and then after he stopped the car, he ran before officers caught him," Joe Hargett said.
Police said crack cocaine was discovered inside Hill's car.
He is being held in the Russellville City Jail without bail at this time.

even without the beer pong this would still be a pretty awesome table

This small coffee table was made of wood, and stainless steel.Edges of the table were cut in half and were bent. So the table's surfaces moved apart and created the legs and the function.

i can only imagine how fun it would be to roll marbles around and watch them collide. tekdeck mini skate park? inconvenient for cups at the edges, but subtly prevents spills associated with putting the cup too close to the sides. what happens if you put something too heavy on it? do the tips of the leg corners break?

made myself a slingshot! fuck yeah.
bought the rubber at a tractor supply store, of all places. found the stick and carved it. i'm glad i could finally put my knives to some use, hahaha. tractor stores are awesome, by the way. they actually sell like, toy tractors and other farm equipments for parents to buy for their kids (this is in dixon, not davis. dixon is the land of farms). i was almost gonna buy myself a BB-rifle (intended for kids 10 and up, apparently), but i'm gonna go scope out a place i could play with it first before i do that! hehe. i'm excited.
now, to see how accurate it is.. i also bought a 250-pack of steel slingshot ammo while i was there!

Via the Future of Music Coalition, this story from Variety on Germany just passing a law that would prohibit the copying of music cds, even for personal use. The article says:
The Bundesrat pushed aside criticism from consumer protection groups and passed the law, which makes it illegal for anyone to store DVDs and CDs without permission. The law also covers digital copies from IPTV and TV broadcasts.
Consumer groups and the Green Party had campaigned in vain to include a "bagatelle exemption," so that the measure would not "criminalize" youths and other private users. The law is set to take effect in 2008.
I havent checked out other sources or commentary on this but this is crazy. Presumably under this law, my iTunes, which contains music from cd's I own would be infringing. Even for those cd's where I have the express permission of the artist who owns her own label to make as many copies as I want.
Ok, Techdirt has a bit more detail. Apparently it is to further criminalize breaking copyright protection. So you can copy things that weren't protected to start with.

Some more of my summer/ spring collection (not really collection, but all my dresses lately have been in anticipation for the warm weather!)
I "borrowed" this 1970's pattern from my mums stash to make this sweet smock from light blue Chambray.
The dress is very swingy so I have to wear little shorts underneath in case I spin around too quickly. The pattern itself also had a very exaggerated 70's style collar, so I just trimmed it down to be more Peter Pan like.

Bordeaux Bike Tours
Exploring 20,000 Years of Culture
On this, the ultimate food-and-wine journey, we move from Left Bank to Right (facing downstream) on into the Dordogne Valley. We begin in Bordeaux, where the riding is as smooth as a Château Mouton Rothschild (you'll understand soon enough). Then, it's eastward to the Dordogne Valley, land of medieval castles, Cro-Magnon cave paintings and exquisite cuisine. Prep your senses for succulent feasts, almost daily wine tastings and some of France's best biking.
Signature Hotels: This trip uses premium hotels that are unique expressions of the region. Often they've had a previous life as a monastery or a castle, but in every case they offer an exceptionally comfortable stay.

Day by Day
A perfect first day: biking the famous Route des Châteaux and dining on gastronomic specialties of the area with two-star chef Jean-Luc Rocha.
Move from Left Bank to Right across the Gironde Estuary for a breathtaking ride through vineyards to our hotel, a 14thC château. Tour a hidden gem of a cellar, then compare left and right banks with our sommelier friends at a very fun winetasting.
Cycle to Pomerol, one of the many famous appellations we'll visit over the week. In the evening visit St-Emilion's underground cathedral then reward yourself with dinner from Cédric Béchade's creative gourmet menu at our hotel.
Take a step back in time and explore the medieval castle of Beynac, then follow the Dordogne River down the "Valley of the Five Châteaux". Sip an an apéritif to gypsy jazz tunes.
Follow an expert through the prehistoric etchings and drawings of the Rouffignac cave. Shop for regional delicacies in Le Bugue and Limeul before a final-night send-off in our hotel's elegant garden.
Enjoy a farewell breakfast at the hotel and au revoir in Trémolat.
Château Cordeillan-Bages, Pauillac
This 17thC chartreuse was turned into a Relais & Châteaux hotel by a family of neighbouring Château Lynch-Bages. Contemporary décor set the stage for the real event: a restaurant that is definitely worth a trip across the Atlantic. Chef Jean-Luc Rocha kept BOTH his mentor Thierry Marx's Michelin stars. View hotel website »
Hostellerie de Plaisance, St-Émilion
This hotel is a 14thC old stone building set in a prime location, right in the heart of St-Émilion. The Hostellerie de Plaisance features a highly rated gastronomic restaurant and a gorgeous terrace overlooking the old town of St-Émilion. Its warm and friendly atmosphere, paired with an ambience both chic and tranquil, makes this hotel the ultimate in relaxation. View hotel website »
Le Vieux Logis, Tremolat
Originally built in the 16thC as a monastery, this Relais & Châteaux historic property has been completely reimagined as a well-appointed luxurious hotel. Every spacious and comfortable guest room has its own unique decor, using antiques and often rustic country pieces. The tranquil outdoor pool and stunning gardens are the perfect place to kick back after a day of riding. View hotel website »
Activity Level
Our average bike ride is 53 km (33 mi.), with the option one day to do a 105 km (65 mi.) Century Ride. Our first three days let you warm up your legs, as the topography is flat or very gently rolling. Later in the trip, the Dordogne's terrain means that each day involves a few challenging hills—but the climbs and descents are either short or gradual. Most roads are very quiet, with a few busier sections in towns. Vineyard and coastal scenery dominate in Bordeaux, in contrast to forest, castles and farmland in the Dordogne Valley.
The Bikes
You can't enjoy a great biking trip without a really great bike. On this trip you'll be riding a customized hybrid or a racing bike with drop bars. We also equip you with handlebar bag, helmet and water bottle.
What's Included
- All breakfasts, four lunches and four dinners, including wine
- Use of a customized hybrid or a racing bike with drop bars, equipped with handlebar bag and helmet
- Services of B&R guide(s) and support van
- All special events, private tours, guest experts and entrance fees
- All transportation from rendezvous to drop-off
- All baggage transportation
- Detailed maps, route suggestions and water bottle
- All gratuities for baggage, porters and hotel service
At Your Service
We take pride in choosing guides who are not only exceptional travelling companions, but who'll go far beyond the call of duty to ensure an unforgettable experience.
"My most memorable moment was our ride through the Dordogne Valley. It was truly beautiful and I wish we could have spent another day there. The meals were fabulous... and the accommodations were some of the nicest I've ever stayed in. All in all, maybe the best vacation I've done."

Making Space: Desks Behind the Sofa
Anyone who's had to deal with a combo living/work/entertaining/eating space knows a trick or two about utilizing every inch. Take that empty space behind the sofa. One way to make the most of your square footage is to place a desk behind the sofa.
And bonus — you free up a wall in the process. Take a look at these artful organizers with various ways to dress up the sofa desk.
And for those interested in the 5th photo (which also triples as a bed) it's the Warhol Sofa by Simone Brewster.

I love this! I have never had a room in which this would work, but I am totally behind it as an idea. I'm also a fan of (I think they are called) Parson's tables, between the couch and the wall or window.
Where is that rug from! I love it!
I wish I had space behind the sofa for a desk...
I've never seen a table like the one in pic #2 - More info please?
I wish I had a sofa.
I've never had a space where I could do this, but in my last apartment, I used to store my 6 foot ladder between the wall and my couch. Perfect hiding spot!
love, love, LOVE the sofa in photo #1
Always seems like a good idea but I would spend way more time watching TV or something than actually sitting there working.
mntwmyn - Great idea!
Great post - I've been mulling over what to do with this space recently and this is some nice specific inspiration!
I really like this idea, but what do you do with cords if you don't have a floor outlet?
Any ideas? I really would like to pursue this.
I was just thinking the same thing about the cords!
Would it work better as a writing desk? Hmmm...the only time I do any writing is to pay bills, and I have just made every bill of mine payable online.
@snickerdoodlecake -- I have this setup in my current apt. It's the most similar to the 4th pic with two tables behind the desk. We don't have an outlet along the back wall at all so we had to run a cord along the molding to blend it in and wrap it around. Hope that helps!
Has anyone done this setup with a desktop computer? How did you arrange it with all the cables and cords and peripherals? Did it look as nice?
This has always been one of my favorite configurations, if you have the room, perhaps because my dad has had his desk set up this way in the (quite formal) living room for about 30 years. He ran a surge protector from the nearest outlet, in an unused corner, under the end table next to the sofa and under the sofa itself to handle his laptop, phone/answering machine, etc. If you have a straight line of furniture leading perpendicularly out from a wall, it's do-able. If you get down under the desk you can definitely see the wires but for the most part they're pretty unobtrusive. It's his little "command center."
I have a friend who uses this sort of setup. She has a narrow table that fits her laptop and a few desk accessories. It makes sense if you don't really need a whole office setup or just don't have the room for one.
