Demonstrators waved American flags on Monday at Chatham Square while rallying for citizenship for illegal immigrants, before joining a larger mass rally farther Downtown.
Chinatown rallies for rights for illegal immigrants
By Ronda Kaysen
By 2 oclock on Monday a large crowd of Chinese restaurant workers, house cleaners, nurses, students, garment workers and fishmongers had gathered at Chatham Square in Chinatown. They stood atop concrete planters and park benches, shielding their eyes from the bright April sun. They crowded beneath the Kimlau Arch, named for a Chinese-American lieutenant who fought in World War II, waving American flags and flashing signs scrawled in both English and Chinese that read, We are America.
I wish to have a nice job, I wish to have a nice life, said Aihua, a 60-year-old Chinese homecare worker who illegally immigrated to New York City six years ago. Although she now has a Social Security card, her status is uncertain because she recently split with her husband, who had helped legalize her status. Because of her precarious situation, she was reluctant to give her last name. I like America, she said.
The demonstrators had gathered as part of a nationwide day of protest against a United States House of Representatives bill that would criminalize illegal immigrants, crack down on those who assist or hire them, tighten border control and ramp up deportations. A Senate bill that would have given undocumented immigrants the chance to become citizens fell apart last week.
New York Citys protest was one of the smaller demonstrations in the country, but it was hailed as the most diverse and represented one of the largest showings of Chinese immigrants in the country. Thousands of Chinese immigrants and Chinese-Americans turned out to voice their support for the illegal immigrants toiling in the citys garment, restaurant, hotel and construction industries.
We might not be a large number, but were in the crowd, Margaret Chin, deputy executive director of Asian Americans for Equality, a Chinatown-based advocacy group, told The Villager. Chinatown is a very important part of New Yorks economy.
Of the 357,200 Chinese-Americans living in New York, 261,500 of them were born in China, according to the 2000 U.S. Census. Chinese immigrants make up the second largest immigrant group in the city after Dominicans. Chin estimated that New Yorks Chinese population is the largest in the country.
The Chinese people are really, really tough, said Sheng an Jial, a 25-year-old political science student at Lehman College in the Bronx. We do a lot of jobs that Americans wont do. Jial, a U.S. citizen who immigrated here nine years ago, clutched the side of a long banner that read in Chinese, We are fighting for America.
As the Chatham Square group marched toward City Hall, their numbers swelled into the thousands. Pedestrians stood on the sidelines, unable to cross the streets, tourists gawked from double-decker red buses and traffic snarled, narrowing to a single lane on Broadway.
We oppose the new law, said Katy Chau, a naturalized U.S. citizen and a social worker for immigrants. They are going to send the parents back. How about the kids? The kids are here. They should think about something good for the whole community.
At Chambers St., the group joined other protesters marching into Lower Manhattan from across the Brooklyn Bridge and down from Washington Square Park. Scores of Mexican workers unloaded from yellow school buses draped with Mexican and American flags.
As the crowd swelled estimates varied from 70,000 to 125,000, and one union reported that 300,000 people attended the demonstrators stretched north to Canal St., west to Church St. and south to Vesey St. Police shut down many streets in Lower Manhattan, paralyzing the Financial District in gridlock. The protest attracted both of New Yorks senators, Hillary Clinton and Charles Schumer, along with several labor leaders.
Congressmember Jerrold Nadler, who attended the rally, attributed the failure of the Senates compromise bill to disarray in the Republican Party.
It remains to be seen when we come back from the two-week recess whether we can put together a halfway reasonable bill, he told The Villager. I havent given up on that yet.
David Zapata and Diana Pacheco leaned against the black iron gate of City Hall Park on Monday clutching Colombian flags. Both emigrated from Colombia illegally with their families as teenagers and are now U.S. citizens. Pacheco, a 19-year-old psychology student at Hunter College, recalled being frightened that she and her family might be returned to Colombia, where they fled civil war. It was kind of scary, she said. They were always afraid of being deported. Her family eventually received amnesty as political refugees.
Zapata, an 18-year-old premed student at Queens College, saw the recent demonstrations as the beginning of a new civil rights movement led by immigrants.
We just want equality, he said.
Of the protesters The Villager spoke with for this article, many were naturalized citizens who had come out in force to support those here illegally. Protesters carried signs that read, Today we march, tomorrow we vote.
The PEW Hispanic Center estimates that 7 percent of the countrys illegal immigrants live in New York City, comprising about 500,000 people.
Illegal immigrants are very worried about the law, said Shing Kwong, senior leader of Local 2325, which represents Legal Aid attorneys, speaking through a translator.
They come here in very hard ways and are very nervous about being deported, Kwong said. When they arrive here, they want to have a better life.

BackgroundSo, much to my surprise, javascript: urls stopped working after I upgraded to FF6. I assumed it was a bug, and would be fixed soon enough. After all, "ReferenceError: alert is not defined" couldn't be intentional, right? I mean, javascript:alert(foo.prop); has worked since before javascript was even invented, amirite?
Not so. In bug 527530 it was considered necessary to remove execution of even typed-in javascript: urls in order to circumvent naive users being tricked into running malicious code. Chrome chose to address the social problem with a technical solution also--by disabling execution of drag-dropped and pasted javascript, but not removing the execution of typed-in javascript. Chrome also restores the urlbar after running the script. I have no idea what IE does, but the bug mentioned that it addresses the issue without removing typed javascript url execution.
The only compelling argument for removing javscript execution from the urlbar completely is that users may still be tricked into pasting bad scripts, they'll just have to type a letter or two before hitting enter--"Check out the super secret awesome page! Paste this in your browser then press the Home key and type ja and press enter: vascript:badstuff()". Since the hypothetical naive user thinks the urlbar is only for urls, this could be a successful attack vector, but I'm not so sure it would be.
In any case, I'm perfectly fine with having a default-false boolean pref. This allows for developers to enable it, and it mitigates all the security concerns as it requires explicit opt-in. Bug 680302 is tracking adding such a pref.
Fixing Firefox 6.0.1 and 7.0If you're like me and can't wait to turn urlbar execution of javascript back on, I'm including a backpatch to Firefox 6.0.1 and instructions to apply it.
Note: This is only tested on Linux, but should be identical on Windows and Mac, you'll just have to find where omni.jar is stored on those platforms and find tools un/zip it (it's a PKZIP format file), and to apply universal difference files.
Edit: This process works for FF7 release, you just need to adjust the paths and use something like 10 fuzziness when applying the patch (patch -p0 -F10 < ...).
All platformsGo to about:config and right click, add a new boolean preference named browser.urlbar.allowInheritPrincipal and set it to true. Shutdown the browser.
mkdir ff6
cd ff6
wget -O ff_urlbar_javascript_pref.diff \
unzip /usr/lib/firefox-6.0.1/omni.jar
patch -p0 < ff_urlbar_javascript_pref.diff
sudo rm /usr/lib/firefox-6.0.1/omni.jar
sudo zip -r /usr/lib/firefox-6.0.1/omni.jar .
cd ..
rm -rf ff6
OthersSo first grab the patch: ff_urlbar_javascript_pref.diff
Make a directory and extract omni.jar into it.
Apply the patch (from inside the directory).
Create a new zip archive named omni.jar with the contents of the directory you extracted to, and move this over the original omni.zip. Look inside both before moving yours over the original, to make sure they have the same directory structure.
Restart Fixefox and you're back to being a normal, competent adult. :)
Labels: firefox, javascript, patch, urlbar

Your New Pre-Workout Routine: Yoga Tune Up Balls
What you do before and after you work out is almost as important as what you do during your workout—yet stretching's often an afterthought, and who has time for a cool down? Jill Miller, the creator of the Yoga Tune Up series, is hoping to change that, so she created a set of small, cushioned, easy-to-grip balls that let you give yourself a massage, relieving muscle tension and working out any aches and pains without dropping $100 on a visit to the spa.
"I started training in massage when I was a teenager," Miller says. "I was looking for ways to treat myself and eventually I found these gripping rubber balls that had such profound results on my own body that I started using them on clients and in my workshops," Miller says. Those who rolled around on the balls before and after workouts became more coordinated: "Improved posture, physical movement, and incredible results in terms of performance," are a few of the things Miller noticed. That they eradicated pain, she says, was just a happy byproduct.
This month, Equinox is launching their RX Series of classes, meant to "massage, mobilize, and maximise performance." Miller's Yoga Tune Up series is leading the way with a 30 minute class centered on the balls before or after (both, if Miller has her way) workouts to warm up your joints and improve your body's movement. Sound awkward? It kind of is, but your body really does feel ten times looser by the time you're done—and you don't have to join Equinox to give it a shot. The Massage Therapy Full Body Kit ($45) comes with two balls and a DVD that shows you exactly you to use them. "They'll find your body's blind spot—areas of under-use over-use, misuse or abuse," Miller says. Sample exercises include placing them between your lower back and a mat and rolling side to side, or positioning them underneath the side of whichever thigh is on the mat and scooting your entire body up and down. You'll be concentrating so hard that you won't even notice your core's getting a workout, too.

Congressman Crowley Welcomes Burma's Daw Aung San Suu Kyi to Queens
(Queens, N.Y.) – On Saturday, September 22, Rep. Joe Crowley (D-Queens, the Bronx) welcomed recently released Nobel Peace Prize recipient and leader of Burma's democracy movement Daw Aung San Suu Kyi to Queens at an event hosted by Queens College. Crowley, a leader in Congress on Burma and a Queens College alum, was the master of ceremonies during the event and had the distinct honor of introducing Daw Aung San Suu Kyi.
"Daw Aung San Suu Kyi has inspired the people of Burma – and people around the world – to stand up for human rights, democracy and freedom," said Rep. Crowley. "Welcoming her to Queens was one of the proudest moments of my life and I am so glad she took the time to participate in this wonderful event at Queens College and with its hard-working students."
Joining Crowley in the event honoring Daw Aung San Suu Kyi were Queens College President James Muyskens; Academy Award-winning actress Anjelica Huston, who read from Daw Aung San Suu Kyi's essay "Freedom From Fear"; New York City Council Speaker Christine C. Quinn, who presented a letter on behalf of the City Council to Daw Aung San Suu Kyi; and acclaimed singer-songwriter Carole King, also a Queens College alum, who performed her hit song "You've Got a Friend."
Last week, Crowley had the honor of helping to welcome Daw Aung San Suu Kyi to the U.S. Capitol and presenting her with the Congressional Gold Medal. In 2008, Crowley spearheaded the legislation to award Daw Aung San Suu Kyi with the medal – the highest civilian award bestowed by the U.S. Congress.
In January, Crowley became the first member of the U.S. House of Representatives to officially travel to Burma in over 12 years. During this trip he met with Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, families of political prisoners, and several members of the government. In addition to leading the successful effort to award Daw Aung San Suu Kyi the Congressional Gold Medal, Crowley also spearheaded the effort to strengthen sanctions on Burma's military leaders through the Block Burmese JADE Act and authored legislation to renew the ban on all imports from Burma contained in the Burmese Freedom and Democracy Act.

You're Hired
The New Orleans City Council voted unanimously to sell city property located on Poydras St. to Donald Trump to build his Trump International Hotel & Tower.
If you've got an extra $300,000 you've been looking to invest, you may want to bid on a 3,500-square-foot piece of land in downtown New Orleans.
But you might have to outbid Donald Trump to get it.
The City Council has authorized the sale of a small chunk of city-owned land that is part of the site of the planned 70-story Trump International Hotel & Tower.
The 1.6 million-square-foot tower, estimated to cost about $400 million, would fill most of a largely vacant block. It would be 716 feet high, plus a 126-foot spire, and would contain 734 luxury condominium and hotel units and a 715-space garage.
Developers have said they hope to break ground this summer on what would be Louisiana's tallest building. Construction is expected to take 28 months, putting completion in late 2009.
At its April 5 meeting, the council gave unanimous approval to selling its piece of the site, a 106-by-33-foot plot in a block bounded by Poydras, Camp, Natchez and Magazine streets. The minimum price is $300,000, with 10 percent due in cash immediately. The city reserves the right to reject any or all bids.
The city also retains a "right of first refusal and option to purchase" the property for 10 years or until a building "assessed for ad valorem tax purposes" at not less than $50 million is built on the site.
In other news at the council meeting, a major local developer, HRI Properties, withdrew its application for a conditional-use permit for an $85 million, 10-story luxury condominium and apartment building in the Warehouse District.
HRI, the company led by Pres Kabacoff, wanted to build a 357,000-square-foot building with 221 apartments on the lower five floors, 105 condos on the upper five floors and a 509-space parking garage. The project would have included most of the block bounded by Andrew Higgins Drive and Constance, Poeyfarre and Annunciation streets.
Most of the 2-acre site is now a parking lot, but plans called for demolishing a small Pelican Ice & Cold Storage building at Andrew Higgins and Annunciation. The building would have lent its name to the new project, to be called the IceHouse Residences.
When it presented its plans to the City Planning Commission last year, HRI said it hoped to start construction by June, with the garage to be completed within a year and the residential building within 18 months.
The project needed a conditional-use permit and several other city approvals, including an 18-foot waiver to the normal 100-foot height limit.
The Planning Commission endorsed the project in December despite opposition from several residents of another building that HRI manages, the Cotton Mill condo building across the street.
Tara Hernandez, an HRI executive, said this week that the company has dropped the IceHouse project because it "no longer has site control." Richard Cahn, who owns the site, became concerned about repeated delays in getting the project under way, Hernandez said.
She said HRI might try to revive the project someday if it can regain control of the site.
Generally speaking I'm in favor development/redevelopment downtown and don't necessarily think that the Donald's project is a bad thing. However, overdevelopment is always a risk. The Trump International Hotel & Tower is a very large development and if the rooms/units can't be filled, a decaying tower will change the CBD from a shining beacon for business and commerce to a reminder to everyone that New Orleans is a dying city.But I'm an optimist. Donald Trump didn't get where he is by investing in losing propositions.

WASHINGTON — Members of Congress clearly like to talk. And talk.
But when it comes to sitting on a plane next to a passenger jabbering on the phone through a long flight, a lot of lawmakers prefer silence, so much so they are contemplating legislation to stop in-flight calling.
"The last thing I'd want is to be seated next to someone who's carrying on a five-hour conversation from L.A. to D.C.,'' said Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank.), calling a plane probably the "last space in America, except underwater" where the public can avoid cellphone conversations.
"Simply put, the flying experience in the United States would be forever changed for the worse if voice calls are...

The current war against Hamas in Gaza, coming after eight years of diplomatic paralysis by the Bush administration, illustrates the state of diplomatic gridlock today and suggests that a Promethean task awaits President-elect Barack Obama if he is to stop the rocket salvos coming out of Gaza, enforce a cease-fire, ensure an Israeli withdrawal, reconcile the Palestinian community, find partners among the moderate Arabs for a broader peace and construct a credible framework for dealing with Iran.
And that's just in the first 100 days.
A close inspection of presidential archives, oral histories and other records shows that each president since Harry Truman has tried to make a fresh start in the region, often trying to distinguish himself from his predecessor, and this very human trait has contributed to the absence of consistency from one president to the next.
Here are the key peacemaking efforts over the years, as well as some of the lesser-known initiatives that have been declassified.
Dams for peace
In the mid-1950s, President Eisenhower wanted to build hydroelectric dams to turn the barren hills of the West Bank and Jordan Valley into an agricultural mecca that might coax Palestinian refugees, displaced by war, out of their camps and onto new farms. He also wanted Israel to give up a sliver of land that would connect Egypt and Jordan via a highway overpass. Both sides rejected the ideas.
No-nukes JFK
In December 1960, President-elect Kennedy learned that Israel was secretly building a nuclear reactor complex that eventually would be able to produce atomic weapons. He waged an unsuccessful behind-the-scenes campaign until his death in 1963 to persuade David Ben-Gurion, the Israeli leader, to give it up.
Rogers plan
In December 1969, President Nixon's secretary of State, William P. Rogers, proposed the first comprehensive peace plan in the wake of the Six-Day War of 1967, calling for the return of Arab lands and secure borders for Israel. The plan said minor changes in borders might be possible, but they could "not reflect the weight of conquest." Nixon's support for the plan was open to question. Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir said she saw no chance for peace while Egypt was ruled by the Arab nationalist, Gamal Abdel Nasser.
Brezhnev's alarm
In June 1973, Soviet leader Leonid I. Brezhnev literally got President Nixon out of bed during their summit talks in San Clemente. War was coming, again, in the Middle East, he warned. He pressed Nixon to agree on some basic principles for peace -- including security for Israel -- that could form the basis for negotiations that might avert war. Nixon, weakened by Watergate, demurred. The October War followed four months later, and Nixon later acknowledged his failure in a private conversation with Henry Kissinger.
Camp David
President Carter entered office in 1977 determined to press for comprehensive Middle East peace after Kissinger's shuttle diplomacy had stalled in the wake of the 1973 war. Then, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat staged his dramatic visit to Jerusalem in November 1977, infuriating other Arab leaders. Carter, at wit's end on how to proceed, invited Sadat and Prime Minister Menachem Begin to Camp David in September 1978 and hammered out the framework for a peace treaty between Israel and its largest enemy. The Palestinian question was deferred to a separate negotiating track that went nowhere.
The Reagan plan
Two months after Israel invaded Lebanon in 1982, President Reagan called for Israel to withdraw from the West Bank and Gaza and to establish Palestinian self-government in coordination with Jordan.
Begin, whose army was in the midst of trying to destroy the Palestine Liberation Organization in Lebanon, saw Reagan's act as an attempt to undermine Israeli war aims. Moreover, Begin had vowed never to give up the West Bank because he considered it part of historic Israel.
Madrid conference
Following the Persian Gulf War defeat of Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's forces in Kuwait, President George H.W. Bush convened the Madrid peace conference in the fall of 1991, affording a rare opportunity for an Israeli prime minister, in this case, Yitzhak Shamir, to sit with Arab leaders and debate their long-standing grievances. Little came from the effort, but just the fact that the leaders met and committed themselves to peace encouraged a new momentum in Arab and Israeli societies for negotiation.
Oslo Accords
The first major breakthrough after Camp David occurred when Palestinian and Israeli negotiators, without the knowledge of the U.S., met for months in secret venues in Norway and emerged with a "declaration of principles" to create Palestinian self-rule, to be followed by "final status" negotiations over five years that both sides expected to result in statehood under PLO leader Yasser Arafat.
Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin shook hands after the Oslo Accords were signed on the White House lawn on Sept. 13, 1993. Although a full peace between Israel and Jordan followed, outbreaks of terrorism and disputes about Hebron and further land concessions were still underway when, in July 2000, the parties flew to Camp David for a final, unsuccessful effort to reach peace.
Clinton parameters
President Clinton was unable to make both sides agree on them in 2000, but these parameters have remained on the table as what many politicians and analysts believe may be the most workable framework for peace. A Palestinian state would arise on 99% of the West Bank and Gaza; Jerusalem would serve as the capital for both states, with Arab neighborhoods making up the Palestinian capital and Jewish neighborhoods constituting the Israeli capital. Special arrangements would be made to share the Temple Mount at the center of the Old City, and the Palestinian right of return would be diverted to the Palestinian state with some humanitarian exceptions.

President Obama this week joined lawmakers from both parties in calling for Congress to wind down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the privately owned but government-backed companies that supply most of the funding for home mortgages in this country. There is now a clear consensus in Washington in favor of shrinking the government's role in housing finance. The tough question that remains, though, is how far to go.
Fannie and Freddie have bought or guaranteed nearly half of the home loans outstanding in the United States. Those purchases and guarantees enable banks to sell the mortgages on their books to investors, freeing up the capital needed to make more loans. In ordinary times, their actions helped reduce the interest rate on home loans. And in downturns, their support helped keep mortgages available for new borrowers. A case in point: Since the financial market collapse in 2007, almost 90% of the country's mortgages have been bought or guaranteed by the two companies.
Some critics blame Fannie and Freddie's troubles on government mandates to finance more loans for lower-income Americans. But Wall Street firms started the rush into risky subprime and exotic loans; Fannie and Freddie just followed their competitors' lead. The real problem with Fannie and Freddie was that the public assumed — correctly, as it turns out — that the government wouldn't allow them to fail, making them more attractive to lenders and investors. They grew too big and took on far too much risk, precipitating a $187-billion bailout.
Fannie and Freddie demonstrate that Washington can't use government-sponsored private companies to carry out its housing policies. The companies' ability to privatize profits while sticking taxpayers with their losses poses an enormous and unacceptable moral hazard. And phasing them out won't eliminate investors' appetite for the mortgage-backed securities that supply capital for home loans.
Another lesson of the last recession, though, is that the government may be the only party willing to keep credit flowing when times get particularly tough. That's why it makes sense to replace Fannie and Freddie with an entity that can guarantee mortgages when needed in a credit crunch or a time of punishingly high interest rates. A bipartisan group of Senate Banking Committee members has offered an intriguing idea: having lenders pay into a fund that would guarantee home loans of limited size, much in the way banks pay for insurance on their deposits. Whatever Congress decides, though, its support for housing should be explicit and targeted to those who need it.

While I was busy enjoying the subtler UI details, AppleInsider noticed that last night's iPad commercial debut showed what might be some of the pricing inside the new iBooks Store:
The commercial showed Sen. Edward Kennedy's "True Compass: A Memoir" for $14.99, the novel "I, Alex Cross" by James Patterson for $12.99, and "Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Journey to Change the World... One Child at a Time" by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin for $7.99.
For comparison, "True Compass" currently sells for $19.25 for the Amazon Kindle, "I, Alex Cross" costs $9.99, and "Three Cups of Tea" costs $7.19.
Whether or not that was final, or merely mocked up pricing for the commercial, remains to be seen.
TUAW also notes a New York Times button at the bottom, presumably to access a special New York Times Bestsellers section of the iBooks Store.
Lastly, 9to5Mac notes the My Documents button at the top left of of the Pages iWork touch app (good for PC users?). And -- gasp! -- another smudge that's likely still not a camera.
So, did the iPad commercial do it's job and make anyone more interested in picking up a magical, revolutionary new piece of gear on April 3?

Favorite Ethnic Comfort Foods: What Are Yours?
When it comes to comfort food, we're just as likely to crave ethnic dishes like chewy noodles with spicy black bean sauce as all-American classics like mac and cheese.

Rep. Smith issues statement on Brockway shooting
PUNXSUTAWNEY - House Speaker Sam Smith (R-Jefferson/Indiana/Armstrong) issued the following statement relative to the incident that occurred Thursday in Brockway resulting in the wounding of Trooper Bradley Wilson.
While serving a warrant, Trooper Wilson was severely injured. A standoff followed and the suspect, Kenneth Lee Sr., was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. His son, Kenneth Lee Jr., is currently in custody, and the investigation into the incident continues.
"Yesterday, Pennsylvania State Trooper Bradley Wilson, a 24-year veteran of the Pennsylvania State Police, DuBois Barracks, was injured in a standoff in Brockway. Trooper Wilson remains in critical condition in Pittsburgh," Smith said. "I would ask everyone to pray for Trooper Wilson and his family, including his brother who also serves in the Pennsylvania State Police.
"A big thank-you to all of the first responders who responded to this incident in a timely manner, especially Trooper Wilson's fellow troopers who pulled him to safety and got him seen immediately by medical staff. We are very fortunate to have the finest men and women serving in our local police departments and state police, as well as the dedicated volunteers that give their time in fire, ambulance, and county emergency services.
"I have no doubt the residents of Brockway will come together in the face of the tragedy, as they have in the past, and do what they need to heal from this horrific tragedy."

I am really having a hard time with this statement. Would the phrase "I love the idea of the student paying $2.99 for a semester of electronic books or electronic journals" go over as well. Also would we as easily tell the faculty or grad student to go down the local bookstore and just buy the book they need for their research because the library deems it too expensive to buy. How many books get more than 5 check outs and yet we still purchase them?
I understand the material is expensive and library budgets can only go so far, but the college/university library is there to support the academic needs of their patrons. If this material is in demand we need to make the case for more budget allocation or a discussion of what could not be purchased instead.
Now if this video material is thought to be equivalent to textbooks for a class, then a new dialogue needs to start with the professors and the campus bookstore about how to make the material available to students at a reasonable price.
But charging students for access the research collection of a their own library?

I love the idea of the student paying $2.99 for a semester of streamed access. It leaves our collection budgets for, well, collecting, and provides a revenue stream for NewDay, Icarus, Bullfrog, Newsreel, etc., etc., etc. I think students would rather pay $2.99 than have to come to the library to watch a movie. Every time I say this someone shoots it down, but I really wish more distributors would go with a pay-per-stream model, where we can pass that cost along to the student and use our money for content (rather than access).

Subject: Re: [Videolib] A meditation on indie vdeo pricing in an age of fiscalapocalypse
Dear video-ists
1) If amongst say the top 1000 higher=ed media buyers price per se was not
the obstacle to buying important (say the top 25% of released titles?)
documentaries at prices between say $200 and $400,
And now, with reduced budgets there is less ability to continue buying them
- overall.
Then, if distributors who formerly sold at $200-$400 were to cut prices to
say $100
Why should we expect any more of those 1000 top buyers to buy 2 > 4 x as
many (at least) units? I don't get it. If I sold 200 units at $300 = $
60,000 / now I am going to release the same films for say $150 - will now
400 colleges buy that same title? And even if they do, I am still behind
(higher costs, more work).
2) How many of you are using or getting your profs/students to use services
such as
A) Amazon VOD
B) New Day VOD
Could we get say 30,000 students to pay $2 each for say our recent release
on the mortgage crisis WE ALL FALL DOWN? (if we stream it ourselves and keep
all the money, less the 3% credit card fee!) or 70,000 students (!) if it is
done thru a 3rd party service like Amazon?
3) Is Alexander Street's model a good substitute for you? Would you like to
move in that direction?
Perhaps, Gary et al, you can give us some specific commentary on which
companies / policies that you see starting to emerge do you think might
work? What are some companies doing right (Strategically) as you see it?
What companies are moving in the wrong direction, and why.
Otherwise, apart from closing up shop, I am not sure what you are suggesting
we (distributors/ producers) do.
Is that too harsh?
VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.

If you're open 9 to 5 - you're catering to the unemployed or retired.
Most of us are working during the day. Most of us are asked to do far more than we have in the past with less time. We scramble to the store after work before rushing home to dinner, a little more work, perhaps some relaxation, then bed again. That's every man and woman (for the most part) in the US.
So if your office hours are from 9 to 5 and you're a retail location focused on sales to working individuals with cash flow - you need to rethink your hours of operations.
Think about 10 to 6 or 11 to 7. The working people in this community will thank you. The economy will thank you.
Unless, of course, you really are focused on working with the unemployed or those lucky few that are retired. Then just keep on doing what you've been doing and getting the same results you've had in the past.

For many years I wrestled with how to take a compliment. I don't know how many hundreds of talks or lessons I've given over the last thirty years, but it's been a lot. And more than once people have come to the front of the room to thank me afterward. Those compliments have been as varied as the personalities of the people themselves. Some simply say, "Good job" or "Great talk" or "I really enjoyed your message." The more thoughtful compliments take the form of follow-up questions, requested clarifications, or an eagerness to get a reference or source of a thought or quotation. As a speaker or teacher, I appreciate the fact that they would make the effort to provide feedback.
For the longest time, however, I just didn't handle such compliments properly. I would often say something like, "Well, not really; I thought it was sort of mediocre" or "Thanks, but I only got through half of my material." My wife, Shauna, noticed my discomfort and suggested that I might take a different approach: I might try saying, "Thank you." It actually works quite well.
In recent years, I have discovered another way to handle compliments, even gushy ones about how wonderful and inspiring I am. I find myself saying things like, "Thank you. It was a great evening, wasn't it? The Lord was good to us" or "There was a sweet Spirit in our midst. I'm grateful I was here." Those aren't just handy homilies to me, nor are they insincere. The longer I live and the more I experience, the more clearly I perceive the workings of the Lord; if we have an inspiring experience together, all the glory and honor and thanks ought to go to God.
I can still remember very distinctly the words of President Joseph Fielding Smith at the April 1970 conference, in which he was sustained as the tenth President of the Church. "I desire to say that no man of himself can lead this church," President Smith affirmed. "It is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; he is at the head. The Church bears his name, has his priesthood, administers his gospel, preaches his doctrine, and does his work.
"He chooses men and calls them to be instruments in his hands to accomplish his purposes, and he guides and directs them in their labors. But men are only instruments in the Lord's hands, and the honor and glory for all his servants accomplish is and should be ascribed unto him forever" (in Conference Report, April 1970, 113).
Such words should create feelings of profound humility, feelings of gratitude, of reverence, of resounding praise to Him who holds all things in his power and is the Source of our strength and very being. Elder Gerald N. Lund pointed out that "focusing on the word profit will help us better understand the concept of unprofitable servants. The word implies personal gain or benefit. Profit means an increase in assets or status or benefits.
"That is the crux of the concept of man being an unprofitable servant. God is perfect—in knowledge, power, influence, and attributes. He is the Creator of all things! What could any person—or all people together for that matter—do to bring profit (that is, an increase in assets, status, or benefits) to God? . . .
"That we are his children and he loves us is undeniable, and that situation puts us in a status far above any of his other creations. But we must somehow disabuse ourselves of any notion that we can bring personal profit to God by our actions. That would make God indebted to men, which is unthinkable" (Jesus Christ, Key to the Plan of Salvation, 120–21; emphasis added).
To the extent that we realize who we are, Whose we are, what we can do, and what we can never do for ourselves, our Heavenly Father and his Beloved Son will do everything in their power to forgive us, equip us, empower us, transform us, and ultimately glorify us. We may not have "arrived" yet, but we're well on the way when we begin to acknowledge our limitations, confess his goodness and mercy and strength, and learn to embody an attitude of gratitude. In the language of the revelation, we are to "thank the Lord [our] God in all things" (D&C 59:7; see also v. 21). In weakness there is strength (see 2 Corinthians 12:9–10; Ether 12:27). In submission and surrender, there is power and victory. Thanks be to God, who grants us that victory through the mediation of his Son, the Lord Jesus Christ (see 1 Corinthians 15:57).

House Bill 656, introduced in the Missouri House of Representatives on February 10, 2009, and not yet referred to a committee, is the latest antievolution "academic freedom" bill.
The executive committee of the Society of Integrative and Comparative Biology decided not to hold any future meetings in New Orleans owing to "the official position of the state in weakening science education and specifically attacking evolution in science curricula," according to a February 5, 2009, letter (PDF) from SICB's president, Richard Satterlie, to Louisiana's governor Bobby Jindal.
Oklahoma's Senate Bill 320, the so-called Scientific Education and Academic Freedom Act, died in committee on February 16, 2009, according to a
report in the Tulsa World (February 17, 2009).

Rated 5 out of 5 by Dancinqueen84 from Very cute top I really like this top, the material is very soft and comfortable, it is made of a stretch fabric that hugs every curve nicely. It is not super long like many shirts these days which I like because I am petite. I love the bold colors and how the fabric is knit. I wore this as a casual and dressier top. I highly recommend this top.

Six essential covers from The Afghan Whigs (playing The Electric Factory on Sept. 27)
This summer, Greg Dulli and his reunited bandmates in The Afghan Whigs turned heads with their cover of Frank Ocean's "Lovecrimes." It was a great rendition, but as fans know well, the Whigs are masters of interpretation. A 90s alt-rock group with soul leanings, their catalogue is peppered with fantastic R&B and Motown re-versions, and some stuff from the rock pantheon too. These guys have a broad and deep appreciation of music, and here are six essential covers for you to dig into as we collectively get psyched for The Afghan Whigs' appearance at The Electric Factory on Thursday, September 27. Tickets and information on the show are available here.
"(Don't Worry) If There's Hell Below, We're All Going to Go" by Curtis Mayfield – covered on the Live at the Howlin' Wolf EP (1999)

BurdaStyle Sewing Vintage Modern Contest 2013, Modern Flappe...
Added Feb 13, 2013
Toledo, United S...
I was inspired by so many of the projects Burda's Sewing Vintage Modern book. I was hard to pick which one to do first.
The over-the-top, fun feel of the 1920s is fantastic! So, I decided to make the Louisa Drop-Waist Dress. I had a vintage sari and some silky fabric in my stash. They both would have worked beautifully with that style of dress. Sketches are the best way for me to narrow down my ideas so I started there.
I used the Louisa Dress pattern as is. The variations came after sewing the main body of the dress. I chose to use fabrics that were about the same tone. And played with translucent over patterned fabric. This kept the details looking natural. The embellishments I added are listed in the variation section.
Material Notes
The translucent polyester with sequins was a bit tricky to stitch.
I used a vintage rayon blend the looked silky and hand dyed.

This is so beautiful! I love how you've used the colors and textures of the fabrics – it has an "organic" effect, I think you used the word "natural"… whatever word you use, it's a wonderful, subtle artistic quality. And the layers of sheer colors really complements you! You don't have to have an occasion to wear it – it's too pretty to NOT wear!

Thanks! I can't wait for something special to wear it to!

"So... I have finally gotten around to finishing the Haiku tutorial I set out to complete over a year ago. I was hoping to have it done sooner, but I decided to then prolong graduation for another year. However, my thesis project has been a rocking success, and you can finally see the fruits of my labors. This production should be incorporated into the project as official tutorial material." Okay so yeah it's a tad bit cheesy, but heck, it's BeOS, so shut up.
