At long last, a collection of shortcuts for the programming trade, organized thematically in one volume!
These are the timesaving techniques relished by computer hackersthose devoted and persistent problem-solvers engrossed in their code who seek elegant and efficient solutions for building better software. The truth is that much of the computer programmer's job involves a healthy mix of arithmetic and logic. In Hacker's Delight, veteran programmer Hank Warren shares the tricks he has collected from his considerable experience in the worlds of application and system programming. Most of these devices are eminently practical, but a few are included just because they are interesting and unexpected. The resulting work is an irresistible collection that will help even the most seasoned programmers better their craft.
Topics covered include:
- A collection useful programming devices the author has collected over the years
- Small algorithms for common tasks
- Power-of-2 boundaries and bounds checking
- Rearranging bits and bytes
- Integer division and division by constants
- Some elementary functions on integers
- Gray code
- Hilbert's space-filling curve
- And even formulas for prime numbers!
This book is for anyone who wants to create efficient code. With the help of Hacker's Delight, you will learn to program at a higher level than is generally taught in schools or training courses, and you will advance substantially more than you would through self-directed study.

At first sight, the book seemed a bit short for $40. But there is quite a bit of information packed in there, and it's certainly much easier to comprehend than picking up one of Knuth's books for the first time. With that said, this really is a book for computer engineers, i.e. people who really like to know what's going on at the bit level. The bit manipulation examples are given in pseudo-assembly, which is very applicable. I can't give 5 stars because of the niche target audience, but it is a very concise, interesting read.

Arco Rock Legends Fast Approachingby Jack Geldard - UKC Chief Editor Jun/2011
This news story has been read 4,921 times
The two awards - the Salewa Rock Award and the La Sportiva Competition Award will be presented to one of the candidates listed below:
UKClimbing is again on the jury at the event and - along with 25 other climbing websites and magazines - will be casting a vote as to who will win these two prestigious awards. But who should we vote for?
Candidate Details direct from the Arco Rock Legends Organisation:
The nominations for the "rock" Oscar couldn't have been better and as usual these come hand in hand with some exciting novelties. Beginning with young American ace Sasha DiGiulian who last March produced a run of climbs which has few equals in the history of female climbing.
The other novelty is the nomination of undisputed Italian talent Gabriele Moroni; after Manolo's nomination in the first edition, this is the second time an Italian is in the running for the prestigious prize thanks to an excellent season both with and without a rope which justifiably left its mark.
But the Jury will also have to analyse the performances of other illustrious climbers who have already been nominated at Arco in the past. Such as 2008 and 2010 winner Adam Ondra who, at 18 years of age, seems even more unstoppable than ever before.
Another climber who dominates the crags in absolute terms is Chris Sharma and after his victory in 2009 he has now received his 4th nomination in 6 years.; this too helps explain why the 30-year-old American is widely considered "The King" of climbing.
And, last but not least, the Salewa Rock Award is also up for grabs for young Frenchman Enzo Oddo who will come to Arco after an incredible year climbing across the globe. After 2010 this is already the second prestigious nomination for the 16-year-old. And who knows, perhaps 2011 will be his year?
The news from the competition front is the first-ever nomination for Ramon Julien Puigblanque, the athlete who over the years has won practically all there is to win in Lead competitions, i.e. climbing competitions with a rope. Last year the Spaniard won both the European Championship and the special Rock Master pre-World Championship event.
He will by joined by Jain Kim from Korea, the undisputed power house who really came into her own last season by winning the Lead World Cup and the special Combined event which sums the results of all climbing disciplines.
The trio is completed with, once again, that man Adam Ondra. It comes as no great surprise if, for the second year running, the climber from the Czech Republic has been nominated fro both categories, for rock and competitions. The La Sportiva Competition Award is the only one missing from his list, but will his victory in the Bouldering World Cup and the 2010 Combined win be enough to convince the Jury?

I had a great time interviewing cartoonist Daniel Clowes at Meltdown Comics in Los Angeles about his Complete Eightball anthology. This video was shot in glorious VHS by filmmaker Rocio Mesa and was produced by Gaston Dominguez-Letelier.
Robert Ito wrote a wonderful profile of cartoonist Daniel Clowes in California Sunday Magazine. It includes some nice illustrations of Clowes by other cartoonists.
In the third issue of Eightball, Clowes published "The Return of Young Dan Pussey," a scathing takedown of the comics industry. In the strip's satirical alternate reality, Marvel Comics founder Stan Lee is a glad-handing cheapskate with an eye for prostitutes, while Fantagraphics co-founder Gary Groth is a bully who consults a thesaurus mid-rant to come up with fresh ways to insult his artists. Art Spiegelman is a creepy, chain-smoking taskmaster who forces his stable of unpaid artists to create work for his comics magazine in a miserable hovel with burlap sacks for beds. "I just felt it was nasty, snotty, gratuitous," recalls Spiegelman. Françoise Mouly, his Raw co-creator, says, "I became aware of [Clowes] as a wiseass a long time ago." Clowes has a different explanation. "Jealousy isn't the right word, but I just had a longing to be a part of that world and had that feeling that I wasn't," he says. "It was sort of an expression of rage and self-pity and trying to make myself feel better about that."
Clowes' full-length graphic novel, Patience, will by published March 1, 2016 by Fantagraphics.

Justin Green is the author of the classic Binky Brown Meets the Holy Virgin Mary, an underground comix autobiography about growing up Catholic and OCD. Sadly, creating brilliant underground comix doesn't provide the most stable of incomes, so in the mid-1970s – with a family to support – Green went into business as a commercial sign painter.
Sign painting, or "commercial brush lettering," evolved over hundreds of years and is probably the earliest form of advertising. But by the 1980s – when Green was seriously devoting himself to the business – it was being eclipsed by computer type and cheap printed vinyl signs. Master sign-painters were aging out and few young craftspeople were taking up the brush, so Green started his monthly comic strip "Sign Game" (collected here) to record some of this hard-won knowledge before it disappeared.
The early strips tell how Green found his footing; including the one-thousand hours required to brush a perfect "O." In later strips he requested techniques and stories from veteran brushmen. They offered priceless knowledge like how to mix your paint so it stays put under the hot sun or how much arm-twisting to apply when a client lets an invoice sit for too long. Some of these sign painters became recurring characters in "Sign Game," and a few died during its run leaving these strips – and a few fading signs – as their final memorial.
Like a great sign, Green's strips are dense with information, lettered in classic historical styles, yet easy to follow. Read the rest
Cartoonist Tony Moore (co-creator of The Walking Dead comic book series) designed this very fun poster for the Cincy Comicon (September 12-13), which pays homages to the old comic book ads for novelties and practical jokes. He did such a good job that I asked him to write a bit about it. Read the rest
The three Genius Illustrated books dedicated to the life and works of Alex Toth make up what's likely the most lavish and complete portrait ever of an American comic book artist or animator: Toth was both. In the worlds of both comics and cartoons, Toth was viewed as an artist's artist. His figure work, use of light and shade, and especially his sense of character and page design were universally admired by his peers.
He was also a real pill.For every story about Toth's genius, there are those about his cranky moods and prima donna behavior. He regularly walked out on jobs or was fired because his vision conflicted with that of editors and other supervisors, who Toth nearly always viewed as his inferiors. If he didn't like a comic book script, Toth would simply change or re-write it as he saw fit. As a result, his work for publishers such as DC and Marvel Comics was sporadic and limited. He hated superheroes, anyway. He had a memorable run at the Standard Comics, producing romance comics and tales of adventure and suspense.
Toth loved the movies, especially old, swashbuckling ones starring the likes of Errol Flynn. His Zorro comic for Dell is a classic with its use of shape and shadow, the main character swooping through the night with his cape swirling and sword gleaming. He could also draw airplanes and aerial battles like nobody's business. But Toth found his most steady and productive work in Hollywood, principally for Hanna-Barbera, where he storyboarded cartoons for TV and designed characters. Read the rest
When comics in newspapers ("funnies") were first invented in the 1900s, a thousand crazy ideas were tried in every local newspaper in the country. Most of these local attempts at this new media were awful, but many of these earliest comic strips and later comic books were truly innovative, original, and bizarre.
There was nothing like them before – or since. Even the underground comix in the 1970s were not as strange and unusual as these now-forgotten visionaries. Art Out of Time: Unknown Comics Visionaries, 1900-1969 presents a sampling of overlooked fantastic and fantastical comics harvested from small town papers, yellowing zines, and short-lived strips. Like many other types of first-attempts, there is still much to be learned from these odd pioneers.
You asked for them, here they are: a sample of Ivan Brunetti's Nancy comic strips. I think they are great! (See Ivan's feature, My failed attempt to draw the Nancy comic strip.)
Jeff Newelt says: "Here's a video of a deep sublime conversation between Dick Cavett and Al Jaffee about cartooning... in a limo!"
Cartoonist Reed Crandall was one of EC Comics' many superstars in the 1950s, drawing stories for Crime SuspenStories, Shock SuspenStories, Tales from the Crypt, Two-Fisted Tales, The Vault of Horror, Extra!, Impact, Piracy, Weird Fantasy, and Weird Science-Fantasy. As a freelancer, he drew stories for various publishers. His splash page from "Hot Spell" in Warren's Creepy #7 (1966) shows why Crandall was one of the greats. (Full-size page) Read the rest

Ed Piskor says: "Pittsburgh magazine followed me around for a few weeks and put together a little piece on me and the Hip Hop comic. The highlight is going through my decrepit boyhood home for the first time in like 18 years and seeing artwork on the walls that survived."
I loved seeing Ed in this 8-minute film, which was produced by Dave Cole. Favorite quote: "There's not enough money in comics to listen to anybody. You should just do what the heck you wanna do." Read the rest
David Letterman sometimes says, of certain eccentric (usually brilliant) people: "She (or he) ain't hooked up right." He means it as a compliment. Lynda Barry definitely ain't hooked up right – and we're all more enriched for the strange wiring.
So, it's no surprise that when the well-known comic artist sat down to write a book about the craft of writing (based on her popular writing workshops), she'd end up with something utterly unlike any previous writing guide. Like all of Barry's work, What It Is is disarmingly personal and brilliantly playful and chaotic.
This densely collaged book is utterly uncategorizable – so many modes of expression are at work here: a textbook/workbook on inspiring creative writing and cultivating creativity of all kinds, a comic-memoir of Barry's personal struggles with creativity and self-expression as a child, a stunning and challenging piece of collage/altered book art, and a sort of extended fever dream on the nature of memory, imagination, play, and creativity.
Barry's ultimate message is about waking up to yourself, to your potential as a creative being. It's an extended pep talk on finding the inspiration between your ears and using your senses and memories of life experiences to express yourself in ways that can truly enrich your life. It's hard not to open up this book, poke your head into its dream-like sea of memory-ticklers, imaginative ideas, creative inspiration, and surreal imagery, and not want to put it down immediately to go make something of your own. As if to drive home the beastly, manifold nature of our deepest reservoirs of creativity, Barry introduces the Magic Cephalopod (aka squid), a sort of creature from the Id, who swims through the murky depths of the text, its many appendages constantly in creative motion, gently encouraging us to swim off on some grand adventure inside of the Mariana Trench of our own imaginations.

Drew Friedman is the great caricaturist of our age. His series of portrait books, Old Jewish Comedians, More Old Jewish Comedians, and Even More Old Jewish Comedians brought him well-deserved acclaim when they came out a few years ago. His latest book of meticulous watercolor portraits is called Heroes Of The Comics, and it includes short biographies of dozens of famous and not-famous-but-important cartoonists, editors, writers and publishers from the golden age of comics. I had no idea what many of the comic book artists I've admired for decades looked like, and it was a treat to finally see the faces of Steve Ditko (Spiderman), Dave Berg and Jack Davis (Mad), and John Stanley (Little Lulu), rendered in Friedman's detailed style, replete with liver spots, wrinkles, and rumpled clothes.
Friedman even included one villain amongst the heroes: Frederic Wertham, the psychiatrist who used flawed data to write Seduction of the Innocent, the infamous 1954 anti-comics scaremongering book that led to the end of the vibrant comic book industry and the careers of many of the heroes in the pages of Friedman's book.

Assuming divestiture is eventually approved, study Constellation Energy Partners (cep) an MLP E&P history and where they are today (have not paid a distribution since May 2009). what unit holders need to evaluate with this eroc event is how will they fund future growth and at what interest rate/unit price to acquire mlp type E&P assets which they will need to acquire quickly to be a viable long term E&P MLP.
I don't think so, CEP is tiny and leveraged, EROC should have a lot of dry powder after the deal closes. Granted, I have no faith in how they deploy that buying power, why would you believe management will suddenly turn into geniuses? But, one does have to remember than NRG is behind this, they won't let it fail entirely.
coochy you dont think eroc is leveraged (read the press release could not meet debt covenants and if you cannot meet debt covenants what does the size matter). at what leverage cost will they be able to expand? how many new units can they issue and now much will it dilute ability to pay distributions and if you notice they did not say they were going to reinstate distributions at same level. at what interest rate will they be able to fund new debt with what liquidity measures. their scoop et al properties are not traditional E&P mlp assets as they have high drilling cost and fast decline which leads to high maintenance capital as well as need for new development capital. why did they "not" divest the E&P assets and keep the midstream asset. sorry this is not a formula for value creation
I would say they have already let it fail.
How else would you describe being forced to sell their best assets?
Would it currently be a Buy-Out candidate?
That's my thought Gumby
Appreciate your comments. IYO, are there any other E&P MLPs about to implode?
hi eb. there are no other E&P mlps in immediate danger that I can see.

I love KnockoutJS but have been struggling to figure out the best way to build large scale Javascript applications with it.
Right now the way I'm handling the code is by building with a root view model which usually starts at the master page level and then expanding on that. I only
ko.applyBindings() on the main view. Here is the example code I have:
var companyNamespace = {};
// Master page. (a.k.a _Layout.cshtml)
(function(masterModule, $, ko, window, document, undefined) {
var private = "test";
masterModule.somePublicMethod = function() {};
masterModule.viewModel = function() {
this.stuff = ko.observable();
}(companyNamespace.masterModule = companyNamespace.masterModule || {}, jQuery, ko, window, document));
// Index.cshtml.
(function(subModule, $, ko, window, document, undefined) {
var private = "test";
subModule.somePublicMethod = function() {};
subModule.viewModel = function() {
this.stuff = ko.observable();
$(document).ready(function() {
}(companyNamespace.masterModule.subModule = companyNamespace.masterModule.subModule || {}, jQuery, ko, window, document));
I'm just worried since this is a tree structure that if I needed to insert a double master page or something like that, that this would be very cumbersome to re-factor.
I'm aware that you can apply bindings to separate elements to change the scope of the bindings however what if I have nested view models?

Terrific follow-up to a classic.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Van Halen 2 (Audio CD)
The always tough task of following up any hit album is apparent throughout music. But what if that debut album is perhaps one of the top ten best albums of all time and not some 90's garabage, wannabe crap. Van Halen expands their musical range somewhat here, but still uses the same basic format that served them so well on VH1. Songs like "Outta Love Again", "D.O.A" and "Somebody Get Me A Doctor" aren't as memorable as "Runnin' With The Devil", "Ain't Talkin' Bout Love" and "Jammies Cryin", but they are still truly great songs and album rock staples. To go along with that, VH actually shows more diversity on VH2 as they add pop songs like "Your No Good" and "Women In Love", a classic ballad in "Dance The Night Away" (which was the bands first real major hit, charting at no. 15) and even a tongue and cheek, pre pop metal song in "Beautiful Girls". Though VH2 is not quite as good as its predesescor, it is another classic album by any decent standard in the rock and roll cannon. Van Halen 2 is certainly well deserving of the nearly 6 million albums it sold in the U.S. alone.

Systems engineering is concerned with the synthesis and analysis of systems of men and machines having specified objectives. Such performance objectives are commonly expressed in terms of human values and, as a consequence, are often necessarily subjective. Furthermore, the systems under consideration invariably exploit the interaction of men with physical components. It is this high degree of human involvement which particularly distinguishes systems engineering from the more conventional fields of engineering. Thus, the design and analysis of a message handling information system is a systems engineering activity, whereas the design and evaluation of a water pump falls within conventional practice

Democrats are accusing John McCain of hypocrisy on the question of whether the U.S. should talk to terrorists and dictators. They say the Republican presidential candidate has previously expressed a willingness to negotiate with the militant Palestinian group Hamas.
In an op-ed published by The Washington Post, former Clinton State Department official James Rubin says McCain told him in an interview for Britain's Sky News two years ago that "sooner or later we are going to have to deal with them." Rubin not only accuses McCain of hypocrisy but also of "smearing" Democratic presidential front-runner Barack Obama.
Thursday, McCain suggested that Obama was naive and inexperienced for expressing a willingness to meet with rogue leaders like Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
A campaign spokesman says that McCain believes any talks would "require mandatory conditions" and Hamas would have to renounce violence and "abandon its goal of eradicating Israel."

The "Special 301" Report reflects the outcome of a Congressionally-mandated annual review of the global state of intellectual property rights (IPR) protection and enforcement. The review reflects the Administration's resolve to encourage and maintain enabling environments for innovation, including effective IPR protection and enforcement, in markets worldwide, which benefit not only U.S. exporters but the domestic IP-intensive industries in those markets as well.
The global trade in tangible counterfeit and pirate goods has risen in the last decade and now accounts for as much as USD 451 billion, according to a new study launched on April 18 by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EU-IPO). This illegal trade is equivalent to the GDP of Austria or the combined GDP of Ireland and the Czech Republic, or roughly equal to the revenues of one of America's tech superstars.
Hong Kong, China and Turkey have been identified among the top three exporters of counterfeit products, while companies in OECD countries, notably the United States and EU countries (such as Italy, France, Germany and the United Kingdom), are the most affected. The study concludes that "counterfeiting and piracy must be directly targeted as a threat to sustainable IP-based business models." It links the revenues from the sale of counterfeit goods to organized crime networks and even to financing terrorist groups.

WASHINGTON – Representatives from U.S. and Chinese customs agencies strengthened relations Tuesday by signing an agreement to work together to combat violators of intellectual property rights law.
Bruce Foucart, director of the National Intellectual Property Rights Coordination Center (IPR Center), and Chen Xudong, director general of the General Administration of China Customs (GACC), signed an IPR addendum, which expanded on a memorandum of understanding the countries drafted in 2011 to collaborate on the enforcement of customs law. The original memorandum sought to enhance prosecutions and convictions and protect the economic, fiscal and commercial interests of each country.
This agreement will help both China and the U.S. combat IPR infringement by tracking IPR violations, sharing information and monitoring the illicit importation, exportation, or trafficking of counterfeit trademarked merchandise.
The two countries will share seizure information like commodity descriptions; quantities; values; dates of import/export; infringed trademarks; known manufacturers and shippers; container numbers; and other available information.
The U.S. and China are also set to conduct joint training operations targeting counterfeit products sent between the two countries that pose a health and safety risk. Representatives will increase the number of visits to each country's ports; extend invitations to scheduled seminars related to IPR enforcement; and issue an IPR Center-developed curriculum and training guide for the GACC that focuses on how to successfully target intellectual property theft.
Although this addendum codifies the intent to conduct joint enforcement efforts going forward, the HSI offices in Beijing have successfully teamed with the GACC to conduct several outbound inspection operations targeting the illegal trafficking of counterfeit apparel and pharmaceuticals. These inspections have led to the seizure of more than 1,000 shipments, the arrests of two individuals and countless investigative leads.
Founded in 2000, the IPR Center is one of the U.S. government's key weapons in the fight against criminal counterfeiting and piracy. The center uses the expertise of its 23 member agencies to share information, develop initiatives, coordinate enforcement actions, and conduct investigations related to IP theft. Through this strategic interagency partnership, the IPR Center protects the public's health and safety, the U.S. economy and the war fighters.
The United States and Paraguay signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on intellectual property rights (IPR) during today's meeting of the United States-Paraguay Partnership Dialogue at the Department of State. As part of the MOU, Paraguay has committed to take specific steps to improve its IPR protection and enforcement environment. Additionally, the MOU creates a bilateral partnership in which the United States intends to support Paraguay's efforts to strengthen the legal protection and enforcement of IPR, including through the enhancement of creative and innovative industries, to promote Paraguay's strategic priorities of growth and development.
Deputy USTR Robert Holleyman said, "We are encouraged by the recent steps the Paraguayan government has taken to enhance administrative and border enforcement. This MOU is an important step forward in the efforts to further improve IPR protection and enforcement in Paraguay."
As a result of the MOU's signing and the commitments Paraguay has assumed under the MOU to strengthen IPR protection and enforcement in Paraguay, USTR has removed Paraguay from the 2015 Special 301 Watch List pursuant to an Out-of-Cycle Review.
BackgroundIn early 1998, the United States designated Paraguay a Priority Foreign Country and initiated a Section 301 investigation of Paraguay to determine whether Paraguay's acts, policies, and practices with respect to the protection and enforcement of IPR were unreasonable, discriminatory, and constituted a burden or restriction on U.S. commerce. The United States subsequently concluded an IPR MOU with Paraguay in November 1998 to resolve the underlying IPR issues and suspended the Section 301 investigation. The MOU was extended several times, renegotiated in 2008, and then extended again in 2009 and 2011. The last MOU expired in April 2012. When efforts to negotiate a new MOU were unsuccessful, the United States then placed Paraguay on the Special 301 Watch List. MOU negotiations with Paraguay were re-launched in March 2014 with the support of President Horacio Cartes.
During the past 18 months, the Government of Paraguay, primarily through DINAPI and partner law enforcement agencies, has stepped up its efforts to strengthen IPR protection and enforcement. While the United States applauds Paraguay's recent actions and its commitments under the MOU, we also recognize the need for coordinated and sustained efforts to resolve longstanding issues in the protection and enforcement of IPR in Paraguay, and we will be monitoring Paraguay's progress in this regard.
The law was called "An Act for the encouragement of learning," and it protected "maps, Charts, and books." The decision to protect maps and charts indicates that the First Congress wanted to encourage exploration of the American continent, including its lakes, rivers, and harbors. The decision to protect books confirms that the First Congress also valued the creation and distribution of authorship, both for informational and artistic purposes. These objectives are reflected in the works that were registered in the first month after enactment, which included an atlas, a spelling book, a collection of court decisions, and a "comedy in five acts."
The first federal copyright law established many of the fundamental principles that are a vital part of the law today. It stated that copyright initially belongs to the author—the person who conceived and created the work— rather than the publisher or the state. At the same time, it recognized that an author's rights are not perpetual but instead should be limited in time. And it recognized that authors are part of a larger economic ecosystem, and that they often transfer their rights to publishers, retailers, or other parties. The first federal copyright law established the principle that authors should have rights to control the use of their works, such as how they are printed, reprinted, published, and sold. It recognized that authors should have meaningful remedies to encourage others to respect these rights and to provide appropriate compensation when those rights are infringed. And it recognized the central role a registration system plays in documenting a public record of creativity, ownership, term, and other legal facts.
Much has changed in the past 225 years. The copyright law today protects not only books, maps, and charts, but also movies, sound recordings, software, and other works that contribute to the knowledge economy and global marketplace. But the fundamental principles reflected in the first federal copyright law continue to inspire the Copyright Office in its work today.

Washington - The U.S. Department of Commerce's United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and the Korean Intellectual Property Office signed a Memorandum of Cooperation (MOC) on May 20, 2015, to begin a bilateral Collaboration Search Pilot (CSP) program. The MOC, signed at a bilateral meeting during the IP5 Heads Meeting in Suzhou, China, allows the two offices to share search information prior to a first office action.
IP5 is the designation for the group of the five largest intellectual property offices in the world. In addition to the USPTO and KIPO, members include the European Patent Office (EPO), the Japan Patent Office (JPO), and the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China (SIPO).
The CSP is designed to provide patent applicants with the best prior art by combining the search expertise of both the USPTO and KIPO before examination of the patent application begins. This will enhance compact prosecution and improve patent quality.
"The initiation of this Collaborative Search Pilot Program reflects the strong ties between the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Korean Intellectual Property Office," said Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the USPTO Michelle K. Lee. "Both of our offices are committed to improving the international patent system and this is yet another step in that direction."
CSP processing in the USPTO will be based upon the Full First Action Interview (FAI) Pilot program (seewww.uspto.gov/patents/init_events/faipp_full.jsp) that separates the initial search from substantive examination. The FAI program is designed to give applicants the examiner's search results, followed by an optional interview, prior to full examination of the claims. In order to ensure the coordination of the search efforts between the Offices, the application will be accelerated in both offices.
"This memorandum reconfirms and further strengthens our commitment to the growing cooperative relationship between our two offices," said Deputy Under Secretary Of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Deputy Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office Russell Slifer.
The CSP with KIPO will allow for both offices to work in parallel and the USPTO will provide the two work products to the applicant upon receipt of the work from KIPO. This will provide two independent views on the claims to help the applicant determine the next best steps in the prosecution of their application.
The two offices will formally implement the CSP on Sept. 1. Further details of the program will be published in upcoming Federal Register notice and on the USPTO website.
WASHINGTON – In an effort to bolster public education and private industry engagement regarding intellectual property crime, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations-led National Intellectual Property Rights Coordination Center (IPR Center) announced FREE training for acquisition professionals and the public on its website.
The training provides acquisition professionals with the knowledge and skills needed to combat the procurement of counterfeit goods in the workplace. The IPR Center's new online training program for acquisition professionals will help companies secure their supply chains from counterfeit goods. By learning how to spot counterfeit goods and knowing what to do when these goods enter the supply chain, companies will better protect their consumers and ensure that the products they provide meet their standards. This acquisition training is a valuable tool for companies, state and local government officials, and anyone involved in the acquisition process. It can also serve to educate the public regarding the harms of purchasing counterfeit products.
Because of the systemic danger posed by counterfeiting and piracy, which the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has estimated to cost the global economy in excess of $250 billion per year and up to 750,000 American jobs, the IPR Center seeks to engage directly with public and private acquisition professionals to break the steady growth of trade in counterfeit goods.
"The U.S. Chamber commends IPR Center Director Bruce Foucart and his team for its proactive approach to fighting counterfeits," said David Hirschmann, President and CEO of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's Global Intellectual Property Center. "It is important to give procurement professionals in both government and the private sector the tools to help identify counterfeit products and those who peddle counterfeit goods, and the IPR Center will help make this possible. By reducing the sale and use of counterfeit products, consumers, government workers, military personnel, and law enforcement officials will secure genuine items and be protected from dangerous fakes."

Disputed Conservation Plan Could Be Model for Nation
By WILLIAM K. STEVENS
Published: February 16, 1997
The nation's most ambitious attempt to reconcile the preservation of nature with urban development has reached a pivotal moment, and the future of an important aspect of Federal conservation policy may turn on the outcome.
The San Diego City Council is expected to vote by April 1 on a 50-year plan to save not just one or two endangered species but an entire landscape with its panoply of plants and animals, while at the same time setting aside relatively unrestricted areas for real-estate development.
Under the gun of the Endangered Species Act, developers joined environmentalists and Federal, state and local governments to put this landscape-wide concept of preserving the Southern California ecosystem into practice.
In exchange for giving up all rights to develop hundreds of thousands of acres of natural habitat, from Los Angeles to Mexico, developers would be freed from any further obligation to protect species on remaining lands under the proposal.
The experiment is being watched closely by Federal and state policy makers because it might provide a long-sought model for revising the Endangered Species Act. An attempt at revising the act is expected in Congress this spring. Republican leaders in the Senate are circulating for consideration a draft revision incorporating the Southern California landscape-wide concept of plant and animal preservation. And promoting the concept has been a pet cause of Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt.
San Diego is the linchpin of the California enterprise; as the city goes, it is believed by people on both sides of the issue, so will go the whole plan to create a sprawling network of nature preserves containing scores of imperiled species like the San Diego fairy shrimp, the California gnatcatcher and the Otay mesa mint.
The prospects for passage of the proposal appear favorable, not the least because Mayor Susan Golding, a moderate Republican, is an enthusiastic advocate. Areas designated as preserves in other communities would be voted on by local governments, but they are widely expected to follow San Diego's lead. Some secondary aspects of the San Diego plan are still being negotiated by the centrist group of environmentalists, developers and government officials who have been striving for six years to put it together. But the plan is under assault from opponents on the right, who see it as an attack on property rights, and those on the left, who see it as a sellout to developers. Many scientists and environmentalists question whether the approach would serve any ecosystem well enough to be built into Federal law.
The biggest sticking point, say these critics, is the plan's central feature: absolving landowners of further responsibility for protecting endangered species once the preserve system was in place. The Clinton Administration has, by administrative order, built this ''no surprises'' policy into scores of other, mostly less sweeping or more rural, habitat conservation plans around the country that protected more than four million acres.
The draft legislation now being circulated by Senator John H. Chafee of Rhode Island and Senator Dirk Kempthorne of Idaho, Republicans who head environmental committees, would put a Congressional stamp of approval on the no-surprises policy.
But nature is not static, say the plan's critics. Species populations vary for all sorts of reasons, they say, while habitats shift, and it could turn out that more protection would be needed.
The landscape in question is a deceptively austere-looking collection of hills and canyons richly carpeted by a wide range of plant groupings. And it is a part of the country where 80 to 90 percent of the natural ecosystem has already succumbed to agriculture or development.
Many Southern California plant and animal species exist nowhere else, and a recent study found that development's inroads on their habitat had made San Diego County a hot spot of endangerment.About 200 species of plants and animals in the county are considered imperiled.
Until now the Endangered Species Act has been applied on a tract-by-tract, species-by-species basis that costs developers time, money and endless regulatory entanglement. Moreover, this nickel-and-dime approach has not worked.
The proposed approach is intended to fix these problems. ''It was just crystal clear that we had to commit headlong to make it work,'' Mr. Babbitt said in a recent interview, since Southern California, in conservation terms, ''was the 800-pound gorilla of urban expansion.''
The proposed preserve would ultimately consist of a number of connecting units totaling as many as a half-million acres. One plan, involving a single landowner in Orange County, is already in effect.
In the 172,000-acre region comprising the San Diego metropolitan area, most of the land to be preserved is already owned by governments or would be donated by land owners as compensation for future habitat destruction on lands exempt from protection under the agreement.
About 27,000 acres would have to be purchased, however. The state and Federal governments have pledged to buy half the acreage, with local governments responsible for the other half. The total cost of the land has been estimated at $260 million to $360 million.

People are here for the love of Hot Rods-Kustoms, Live music, burlesque, art shows, 50's fashion, and of course the tattoo show covering three floors inside the ship. 280 of the best tattoo artists in the world will be on hand from 30 States and 25 Countries representing all the tattoo styles; where a car show and music become an integral part of the event, mingling with the artistic expressions of the artists at work. Pinups clad in corsets, Classic Cats with Pompadours, Mohawks, fashion Mullets, full sleeves and back pieces. Not only is the breathtaking view of the gigantic Queen Mary, the beautiful water, and the amazing Long Beach skyline quite a task to take in all at once, but all the fashion statements and lavishly adorned people are quite a spectacle as well. This convention will be both a sort of art gallery and community festival. Seven years ago the ship was overtaken by the underground subculture of all things Kustom and modified. From tattooing to pin striping and tantalizing show goers with tight corsets the 8th Annual Ink-N-Iron Festival is laced up and racing for port! The Paladins~13 Cats~The Rev Tones~DJ Satoki~The Sonics~Detroit Cobras~The Woggles~Frenzy~Creepshow~Phenomenauts~Fishbone~Skatalites~King Hammond~The Hexxers~Buzzcocks~Anti-Flag~Batmobile~Psycho Charger~Dead Relatives, plus many many more!!!
Bio: 13 Cats is an all star neo-rockabilly band consisting of Slim Jim Phantom (Straycats, HeadCat), Tim Polecat (Polecats), Danny B. Harvey (Rockats, HeadCat) and Smutty Smith (Rockats, Havalinas). The album "13 Tracks" contains all the studio recordings the band made over the past four years, except...See Full Bio
"Musicianship wise, Danny B Harvey has to be one of the best guitarist's I've very heard on CD outside of the greats of old (Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Hendrix etc). Every guitar solo is original and inventive. I play guitar and would love to know how he comes up with his these original riffs and solos. Tim Polecat has one of the greatest rock voices in the history of rock music; I'd compare him to early John Lennon if he were just a little tamer. drummer Slim Jim Phantom is from the Stray Cats and like the more famous co-fonder Brian Setzer he is a master of his instrument. Surprisingly at times he sounds more like John Bonham or Keith Moon then the world-renowned rockabilly drummer he once was. all fans of The White Stripes, Social Distortion, The Clash and The Yardbirds (my favorite all time band). Do you yourself a favor and give them a listen."

What is an unlocked phone?
An unlocked phone is a device that is not bound to any carrier or plan. It allows you to choose your phone first and your carrier second. Upon selecting a plan, simply insert the carrier's SIM card into the phone and you're ready to go. If you decide you want to change carriers down the road or want to take an international trip, it's as simple as replacing your existing SIM card with a new SIM and activating your new plan.
What are the benefits of an unlocked phone?
Freedom: Choose the carrier with the best service or price. If you find a better deal later, you have the ability to change to a different carrier.
Travel: Take your phone internationally and use the carrier of your choice. It's as easy as inserting an active SIM card.
Selection: Choose the phone with the features you want, whether or not your carrier sells it, and get more service options without a contract.
How do I set up my unlocked phone?
The first thing you'll need is a SIM card for your desired carrier. When activated, the SIM card will let your phone connect to your carrier's network. If you decide to upgrade to a newer unlocked phone in the future, you can easily remove the SIM card from your old phone and put it in your new phone—just make sure you get the right size of SIM card (nano, micro, or standard) for your phone. If you want to use your phone while traveling internationally, you can easily buy a SIM card for a carrier that operates where you're traveling. As long as it's activated, you can just swap SIM cards when you arrive at your destination.

Thanks from Alaska, Im Paul, and please remember if you have read my full review and enjoyed my honesty please click it as helpful.
The Huawei Honor 5x is the first of its kind. It's not a game changer in terms of the latest and the greatest. It's a game changer in that it's the first 'real' low cost phone that has a metal body, large battery, beautiful screen, fingerprint reader, decent cameras, and a decent processor.
For the longest time, phone makers reserved metal smartphones and fingerprint readers for their 'flagship' models. Only those who pay $600+ (un-subsidized) would have the luxury of accessing those new features. The Huawei Honor 5x was designed to disrupt that philosophy.
For reference, my previous phones were:
Nexus 5
Oneplus One
Oneplus Two
Nexus 5x
At a very low $200 price point at launch, the Honor 5x is currently one of the best values in terms of specs, features, build material and support. To get to that price point, Huawei had to cut back on a few things like NFC, a faster processor and a camera quality. This may sound like a huge deal breaker, and it may as well be if you're coming from a flagship phone from any other maker, but at $200, what the Honor 5x is able to pack into the phone is way better than any other phone in that same price range. (Name a metal high quality phone with a fingerprint reader that can be purchased at $200 at launch day. 02/05/2016)
***Update 02/19/2016 After nearly 20 days using this phone as my primary phone, I'm finally ready to comment on the performance. Comparing the Honor 5x with my previous phone, the Nexus 5x, I would have to say that they seem identical. I actually haven't notice any significant lag on the Honor 5x whereas with my Nexus 5x, I've notice significant lag with similar apps.Read more ›
I bought this for me and nexus 6 for my wife both around the same time. Nexus 6, being last season's flagship phone and a phone that still tops many charts in performance will be my frame of reference here. Both devices has been selling really good on amazon with similar price range and great sales recently. So here it goes. Which device you should get?
Motorola Nexus 6 vs Huawei Honor 5X
Package, accessories and boxing
Both come with neat boxes but nothing fancy. Both come with warranty and manuals (despite some reviews mentioning the honor 5 coming without them) and sim ejection tool. the big difference here being the charger. The honor device comes with extremely generic charger, pretty slow at that too (1 amp, although it performs at slower rate than other similarly advertised ones). The Motorola device comes with quick charger (2 amps, goes from 10% to 100% in about 70 min, compared to 2.5-3 hours). Also note that it is much, much easier to find third party accessories for the nexus 6 on amazon and elsewhere (it has been around for longer after all)
Winner: Nexus 6
Set up
Both are android devices so a lot is common here. Both take advantage of the back up / restore function from google pretty well. Surprisingly, boot up and restoring apps and settings from the honor was faster by a good margin than the nexus 6 (35 min vs 50 mins).Read more ›
Update: 24 hours after writing the review the update was released.
Before I get into the actual review I would like to add that Huawei is asking for customer feedback and suggestions that will help improve device experience for future updates. Please do a goole search for club hihonor to register and provide feedback. It is very important to provide this feedback so that we can continue to receive these updates. I was unable to provide links as Amazon has blocked the links.
- Price - Hands down the best phone you can buy at 200.
- Build Quality - Not the best but not the worst either. It does not feel cheap in the hands.
- Quick OTA Updates - Honor does not have to wait for the carrier to approve the update so you will get the update once Huawei releases them.
- Fingerprint Reader - Sensor location, Speed, and accuracy are just perfect.
- 1080P IPS Display - At 401 ppi this screen is big and clear. Accurate colors.Read more ›
