Did Stephen Colbert And President Bill Clinton Violate The CFAA?
from the another-day,-another-example dept
Let's jump over to Twitter's terms of service. There, they clearly forbid impersonation:
Impersonation: You may not impersonate others through the Twitter service in a manner that does or is intended to mislead, confuse, or deceive othersNow, you could argue that Colbert registering an account for Clinton without his permission does not reach that level, but are you confident that someone else doing the same thing less publicly wouldn't run into problems if their tweets pissed someone off? An account that many people believe actually belongs to Bill Clinton would be highly valuable. Indeed, just overnight the account has racked up tens of thousands of followers. In the meantime, it's not even entirely clear who actually controls the account. Colbert registered it and tweeted from it. Are any future tweets coming from Colbert or Clinton or someone else? It's not difficult to make an argument that the account is intended to confuse others. Furthermore, if Colbert is transferring the account over to Clinton, it means that Clinton never actually agreed to the terms of service in the first place. Would that mean he is then abusing the use of the service?
While they appear to now have been deleted, according to the Washington Post, after the inaugural post done live on the air, there were a series of other tweets in which it was not clear if it was Clinton or Colbert tweeting. One had "Clinton" refer to "Colbert" as his new "BFF" and the tweets used the hashtag "#notColbertpretendingtobeme." At the very least, there is clear confusion, and a regular person might assume that this is Bill Clinton tweeting. If it's actually Colbert, it could be seen as a CFAA violation.
Yes, this is a stretch -- no doubt about it. But that's part of the problem with the CFAA. It is so broadly worded that simple activities like these can be twisted into a violation should someone in power wish to do so.

Appeals court sides with Nintendo in Wii Balance Board patent lawsuit
Nintendo has prevailed in the US Court of Appeals to uphold the company's victory in a patent-infringement case involving the Wii Balance Board.
The Court of Appeals agreed with the lower court that Nintendo did not infringe IA Labs' patent, and also upheld the lower court's ruling that IA Labs must pay Nintendo more than $236k in attorneys' fees.
"We are very pleased with the court's decision," Nintendo of America's deputy general counsel Richard Medway said.
"Nintendo has a long history of developing innovative products while respecting the intellectual property rights of others. We also vigorously defend patent lawsuits, like the IA Labs lawsuit, when we firmly believe that we have not infringed another party's patent."

Big Island Mayor to keynote UH Hilo spring commencement
UH Hilo Home > News and Events > UH Hilo Press Releases
Date: Monday, May 3, 2010
Contact: Alyson Kakugawa-Leong, (808) 974-7642
For Immediate Release
Hawaiʻi County Mayor William P. (Billy) Kenoi will deliver the keynote address at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo spring commencement on Saturday, May 15, 9 a.m., at Edith Kanaka`ole Stadium.
A total of 476 students have petitioned for various degrees and/or certificates. The undergraduates and their respective colleges include: College of Arts and Sciences (373), Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resource Management (14), Business and Economics (24) and Ka Haka `Ula O Ke`elikolani College of Hawaiian Language (21). Another 44 students are candidates for various post-graduate honors.
Kenoi was born in Kalapana and graduated from Hilo's Waiakea High School in 1986. He spent three semesters at Hawaiʻi Community College and UH Hilo from 1989-1990. Through the National Student Exchange Program, Kenoi gained entry to the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and graduated in 1993 as a member of the UMASS Political Science Honor Society. Kenoi subsequently returned home to earn his law degree from UH Manoa's William S. Richardson School of Law in 1996.
After passing the bar exam on his first attempt, Kenoi launched his legal career by joining O`ahu Circuit Judge Richard Perkins as a law clerk. He then went to work in the Office of the Public Defender, serving in the Appellate, District Court, Juvenile Criminal, Adult Family and Circuit Court Divisions.
Kenoi got his first taste of politics while enrolled at UMASS Amherst when he went to work as a congressional intern in the Washington D.C. Office of Hawaiʻi U.S. Senator Daniel K. Inouye. He later served as a legislative aide for the state house and senate in Honolulu. In 2001, he returned to the Big Island after being appointed an executive assistant by then Mayor Harry Kim.
For the next seven years, Kenoi handled a wide range of high level assignments, including establishment of the "Healing Our Island" grant program, coordinating the County's "War on Ice," securing funds for the island's mass transit program and creating the Coqui Frog Community Grant and County Loan Sprayer program. In 2007, he was recognized by Hawaiʻi Business Magazineas one of "25 people who will shape Hawaiʻi over the next 25 years."
Kenoi resigned his position in 2008 after entering the race for Big Island Mayor and went on to win election with more than 55 percent of the vote. He officially assumed office in December of that year.
La`akea Yoshida, a history major focusing on European history, with a minor in anthropology, is student speaker. Yoshida, who has maintained a cumulative GPA of 3.8, has earned numerous academic honors including the College of Arts and Sciences Dean's Scholarship, the CAS Dean's List, the first ever UH Hilo Ambassador Grant, the Vulcan Leadership Award for Outstanding Scholar, the UH Hilo History Department's Outstanding Student Writing Award, Kamehameha Schools' Na Ho`okama a Pauahi Scholarship, and Who's Who Among American Colleges and Universities.
Yoshida is president of the UH Hilo Chapter of Phi Alpha Theta, (Alpha Beta Omicron) The National History Honor Society, and was part of a five-member team that competed in March at the Society's regional conference at UH Manoa. Yoshida's paper, "Bloodline Accession and Gifted Power: Nero Claudius Drusus and the Struggle to Define Heir ship in Rome During the Reign of Tiberius," was voted Best Undergraduate Paper. It was the second time Yoshida captured that award after first winning it in 2008.
Yoshida is scheduled to enter Oxford University in October, where he was admitted earlier this year as a Master of Philosophy candidate in Roman and Greek history. He is believed to be the first History major from UH Hilo ever admitted to the prestigious United Kingdom institution.
For more information on Commencement, contact Judith Fox-Goldstein at (808) 974-7555 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. For special accommodations, contact Susan Shirachi at (808) 933-0816 (V) or (808) 933-3334 (TTY). Requests should be made at least 10 business days prior to the event.

The permanent art displays in Willard Library have stories of their own to tell. Click on the pieces below to learn more about them.
This copy of Gilbert Stuart's "George Washington at Dorcester Heights" (which hangs at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts) is believed to have been painted by William Edward West.
The painting has been with Willard Library since its opening, but how it came to the Library was a mystery until 1954.
At that time, Julia Evans Stephens Shea, a resident of Hollywood, California, and descendent of General Robert M. Evans, was visiting Evansville. During her stay, she read a newspaper article by Bish Thompson on the cleanup and minor restoration of the painting.
Shea claimed the painting was hers. She said it had once belonged to General Evans, who has passed it to his daughter, Julienne Evans Stephens. When the Stephens family moved from their country home into the city, they didn't have room to display the painting. So Stephens loaned it to her cousin, Lou Scantlin, for display at the public library where Scantlin worked.
When Willard Library opened a few years later, the painting, along with the public library's books, moved to Willard.
Shea was the only living heir to the painting in 1954, and she determined it should be left on display at Willard Library. It hangs there today.

Embroidery hoop framing tutorial
Your embroidered piece
A hoop which will fit your embroidery
Felt in the same colour as your embroidered cloth (or as close as possible)
Heavy card stock. I used acid free watercolour paper
Glue that dries clear. I used a gel glue, which worked really well
Embroidery thread in the same colour as your cloth + needle
Put your cloth on top of the inner hoop and move it around until it is perfectly positioned. Then slide the outer hoop on top.
Remove both hoops and now you have an imprint of how to position the cloth. This is handy, because depending on the glue you are using you will probably have to be quick once you have applied the glue to the hoops.
Which is the next step. No picture of that (sorry), but there was no time what with the glue drying and stuff.
This is what you do: apply glue to the outside of the inner hoop, then place your cloth on top, using the imprint as a guide. Then apply glue to the inside of the outer hoop and slide it in place over the cloth and inner hoop. Tighten the screw slightly and then pull the cloth taut as you go around the hoop. Once the cloth is evenly taut, tighten the screw properly.
Your cloth and hoop combo should now look something like this.
Your cloth is hopefully quite a bit wider than the hoop, if it isn't you may be slightly buggered. Anyway. Cut the cloth into a circle that is about 5cm/2" wider than the hoop.
Then place the felt circle inside the hoop. There is no need to sew or glue it into place. It is there to protect the stitches and make everything look neat. Especially if your cloth is light.
Now thread your needle with a length of thread that is the size of the circumference of the hoop + 15cm/6". Gather the edge like you would if you were making a yoyo. You want the stitches to be as even as you can and also quite close together, so you get a neat end result.
Which hopefully looks something like this. Pull the thread tight and finish by making a couple of knots in the fabric. The thread/fabric should be so tight that the fabric 'hovers' slightly in the middle, not touching the felt.
Now apply glue to your card stock, be quite generous, but not to the point of soaking the card stock! Also apply some glue to the fabric. Not a lot, just enough to add a bit of extra bonding with the card stock.
Place the card circle in the hoop and press it down firmly all over.
Place something heavy on top. Preferably something that has a flat bottom and covers most of the inside of the hoop. Leave like this for about half an hour, then remove the heavy weight and leave to dry completely.
My set up here is not quite ideal, would have been better if the diameter had been a bit wider. But hey, you work with what you've got, eh?
Tie a nice piece of ribbon or string to the closure of the hoop and hang on your wall.
If you want to be able to remove your embroidered cloth from the hoop at some point, skip any steps to do with glue. In stead of finishing it off with card stock, you can stitch a second felt circle onto the 'yoyo' of the back.
Also, it may be a good idea to wrap the inner hoop in fabric strips like bias binding or similar, which will protect the cloth from wear to some extent. It will add bulk to the ensemble, though.

Mine have never looked this neat but they will from now on. Thanks for the tips. Also, if you have a response to the question above about frame-worthy hoops, I'd love to hear the answer too. Thanks!ReplyDelete
Finally, I have been forever trying to find a tutorial on this, thanks!ReplyDelete
I have been looking for a tutorial on this...thanks, this looks perfect!ReplyDelete
excellent tutorial and boy is it going to be handy - I never knew how to do this before. THANKSReplyDelete

Thank you so much for this. It seems easy to do and preserves the simple look of embroidery in a hoop. (I only wish I had seen it before I gave friends a piece i did for them--in the hoop but sans any framing. Doh!)ReplyDelete
Great tutorial and what a perfect way to frame an embroidery project. It makes me want to start stitching again!ReplyDelete

You have done a great job with this tutorial. I have been wondering how to create a frame using a hoop and now you have beautifully answered my question!ReplyDelete
Thank you!
Thank you all very much! I am so glad you like the tutorial!ReplyDelete
@Sarah + Pumpkin
I think nice wood hoops are, well, nice. Some plastic ones with woodgrain look would be good too.
Also, if you have plain ones, you can always paint them in a colour that goes with your stitched project. You could even paint them with blackboard paint so you can write little messages on the hoop!
thank you for this! I've been wondering how to do this and make the picture still look goodReplyDelete
Thank you very much for leaving me a message!

Globalization and the rapid proliferation of technology have elevated the importance of intellectual property protection for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs). The intangible nature of intellectual property and the worldwide inconsistency of standard practices create challenges for U.S. businesses wishing to protect their inventions, brands, and business methods in foreign markets. The three most common vehicles for protecting intellectual property are patents, trademarks, and copyrights. This article is intended to provide exporters with a brief overview of intellectual property rights and the methods being employed to protect those rights internationally.
The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) defines intellectual property (IP) as "creations of the mind: inventions, literary and artistic works, and symbols, names, images, and designs used in commerce." More specifically, intellectual property refers to a broad collection of rights relating to such matters as works of authorship, which are protected under copyright law; inventions, which are protected under patent law; marks, which are protected by trademark law; as well as trade secrets, designs and other related rights. It is important to note that these forms of intellectual property are very different and the protection afforded under them serve different purposes. To learn more about IPRs, visit the WIPO website.
Intellectual property rights (IPRs) give the owners of ideas, inventions, and creative expression the right to exclude others from access to or use of their property for a certain period of time. International treaties and the laws of the various countries differ significantly in terms of the degree of protection and enforcement available.
The United States provides a wide range of protection for intellectual property through the federal registration of trademarks and service marks; through federal patent protection and copyright protection; and, under state laws, through protection of trade secrets and marks. Federal protections extend only throughout the United States, its territories and possessions. U.S. IPR laws confer little or no protection in other countries. To secure full patent rights in another country, you must apply for a patent in that country. To learn about the specific intellectual property laws and requirements of individual countries, visit the WIPO guide to Intellectual Property Worldwide.
Some advantages and minimum standards for the protection and enforcement of intellectual property do exist under treaties or other international agreements. For example, copyright protection is automatic in all Berne and WTO countries without any formality (such as registration, copyright notice, etc.), and is extended on the basis of national treatment–that is, a U.S. author suing in France under French copyright law is entitled to the same protection as a French author suing in France under French copyright law. The World Trade Organization (WTO) agreement on trade-related aspects of intellectual property rights (TRIPs) upgraded standards of protection for a full range of IPR. The agreement also provides for the effective enforcement of those standards both internally and at the border. The TRIPs Agreement is the first multilateral intellectual property agreement that is enforceable between governments. The agreement has a strong dispute settlement mechanism to resolve disputes.
The question of whether to pursue international protection for your IP is not always clear cut: for example, there may be cases when it is advisable to forego patent protection to safeguard trade secrets and sensitive information that may need to be published in the patent process. In any case, the first step in determining if IP protection is right for your company is to secure the services of specialized legal counsel. It is important to note that in addition to obtaining patent protection, you should also protect your trade secrets through appropriate confidentiality provisions in employment, licensing, marketing, financing, distribution, and joint venture agreements.
Patents: A patent is a legal instrument that gives its owner certain exclusive rights for an invention. Most patents are directed to a product or process that provides a new or improved way of doing something, or offers a new technical solution to a problem. In the United States, the life span of a patent depends on many factors, but once secured, a patent generally provides protection to its owner for a period of 20 years from the date the patent application was filed. Since a patent granted by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) only protects the owner of the patent in the United States, it may be necessary to obtain patent protection from foreign patent offices for any commercial activity to be conducted outside the United States.
The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) streamlines the process for U.S. inventors and businesses wishing to obtain patent protection in other countries. By filing one international patent application with the USPTO, U.S. applicants can concurrently seek protection in up to 115 countries. For an invention made in the United States, U.S. law prohibits filing abroad without a foreign filing license from the USPTO, unless six months have elapsed since filing a U.S. application. For more on the benefits of filing for an international patent under the PCT see the January 2002 Export America article titled "The Advantages of Using the Patent Cooperation Treaty".
For more information on filing for a patent in the United States visit the USPTO website or call the Patent Assistance Center at 1-800-786-9199 or (703) 308-4357. You can also file for a U.S. patent electronically using the USPTO's Electronic Filing System. For filing an international patent under the PCT, visit the USPTO website. Additional information on the PCT is also available on the WIPO website.
Trademarks: A trademark is a word, name, symbol, or device that identifies and distinguishes the source of goods used in trade. In short, a trademark is a brand name. Service marks perform the same function for businesses dealing in services rather than goods.
In the United States, rights to trademarks, service marks, and other marks are acquired through use, registration, or prior foreign registration. However, in most countries, trademark rights are acquired only through registration, and many countries require local use of the registered mark to maintain the registration. Whether a given mark can be registered in a particular country will depend on the law of that country. For example, some countries do not protect service marks. The United States is not a member of any agreement under which a single filing will provide international protection. For more on how to file for a trademark internationally see the March 2001 Export America article titled "Small Business Primer to Filing for Trademarks in a Foreign Country".
To learn more about trademarks, visit the USPTO website or call the Trademark Assistance Center at 1-800-786-9199 or (703) 308-9000. You can also file a trademark application electronically using the USPTO Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS).
Copyrights: A copyright protects original works of authorship. In the United States, this protection gives the owner the exclusive right to reproduce, prepare derivative works, distribute copies, or perform or display the work publicly.
No "international copyright" provides universal protection for your work throughout the world. However, securing copyright protection has been greatly simplified under international copyright treaties and conventions, such as the Berne Convention and the WTO TRIPS Agreement. In most countries, including the United States, registration is typically not required. A small number of countries, however, offer little or no protection for the works of foreign nationals. Ultimately, copyright protection depends on national law. Before publishing a work anywhere, it is advisable to investigate the scope of protection available, as well as the specific legal requirements for copyright protection in countries in which protection is desired.
To learn more about copyrights, visit the U.S. Copyright Office website or call (202) 707-5959 to speak with a copyright information specialist. Certain users can also register a copyright electronically using the U.S. Copyright Office CORDS Electronic Registration System.
The ease of IPR enforcement depends on local law, the resources of the intellectual property owner, the attitude of local officials, and many other factors. In the United States and many countries, intellectual property owners pursue infringement claims through civil litigation. Internationally, avenues to address IP infringement vary by country, and will be dictated by local law. As required by the TRIPs Agreement, criminal procedures and penalties in cases of willful trademark counterfeiting and copyright piracy must also be available in WTO member countries. It is important to seek proper legal advice on any issues related to IPR enforcement. For more information on enforcement and dispute resolution visit the WIPO SME website and click on IP for Business.

Fergie hopes for 'unbuyable' Ronaldo
Sir Alex Ferguson believes former Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo is now "unbuyable", but admits he maintains hope he will one day return to Old Trafford.
Ronaldo left United for Real Madrid in 2009 in a deal worth £80 million, and has since scored a remarkable 165 goals in 162 appearances.
Following United's shock 1-0 loss to Norwich, Ferguson admitted he wished he still had Ronaldo to call on, claiming the reigning La Liga champions got a bargain price.
"I'd like to think it would be [possible to get Ronaldo back], but I don't think it will be. You're talking about incredible amounts of money now," Ferguson said.
"What would you think his value would be? He's definitely unbuyable. Who could afford to buy him?
"He was definitely good value for Madrid, but he always wanted to play for them. It was his boyhood dream. I'm not saying he'll stay there forever, you never know. How do you know we've not got a buy-back clause for him?"
During his six seasons at United, Ronaldo won three Premier League titles, one FA Cup and a Champions League crown. Ferguson insists his performances from 2003-2009 make him one of the club's all-time greats.
"He's an unbelievable player - one of the best. We have a pantheon of great players and Ronaldo definitely compares with any of them.
"Although he had a natural talent, he is in many ways manufactured himself. He practised and practised. He had a bit of the Eric Cantona about him in that way. Paul Scholes is still the same," Ferguson concluded.

The Reflection Series flagship RS 326 floorstanding loudspeaker accurately reproduces
any source material under any listening condition. As the front speakers in an RS
home theater, or by themselves in a full-range two-channel music system, RS 326
loudspeakers have both the power and the subtlety to bring any form of home entertainment
to life.
Reviewer: Robert Harmon
I have had these speakers as part of my home stereo setup for almost 6 months, and, if possible, am more impressed with their sound each day. I was a little leery when ordering these because of a review I read on the web that faulted the midrange as being harsh, but I listen to symphonic and operatic works almost exclusively and I find the high, midrange and bass response to be exactly as I think they should be. These RS326 speakersreplace a set of 15 year-old VR40 Boston Acoustics speakers in my system (which were also a great Boston Acoustics product) and they do sound more "alive" than the VR40s.

The TorHans Bento X is a new class-leading product in the top tube storage space. I mounted mine to this Cutting-Edge Vintage Trek TTT. It's a smidge wider than the tubing of the 18-year-old Trek, but still does a really good job of hiding from the wind, and hiding the cables.. Check out the full review for all the ins and outs of this new storage product.

Rays 5, Astros 0
Chris Archer had no trouble ranking his first complete game in
the major among his list of baseball accomplishments.
Archer pitched a five-hitter in his 13th big league start,
pitching the Tampa Bay Rays past the Houston Astros 5-0 on
"The best game I've ever pitched in my life," Archer said.
Archer (4-3) struck out eight and walked none. He has nine
starts this season after making his major league debut last
"The past couple games, I felt strong enough to continue to
pitch deep into the ballgame, but really I've never pitched into
the eighth inning before – minor league, major league, little
league, whatever," Archer said. "But they had faith in me to go
deep. We scored enough runs so that there was no question. We
played tremendous defense which saved me pitches, and I was able to
Desmond Jennings homered as the Rays won for the 14th time in 16
games. Tampa Bay completed its most successful three-series
homestand at 9-1, and went into the All-Star break in second place
in the AL East.
Houston headed into the break with a 17-inning scoreless streak.
The Astros have lost 12 of 15 and have the worst record in the
majors at 33-61 during their first season in the American
Between Saturday's third inning and the fourth inning Sunday,
the Astros went 11 straight innings without scoring or leaving a
runner on base. Only four runners reached base in those 11 innings
– two were doubled up and two were picked off.
Jennings hit his 11th homer, connecting in the sixth off Paul
Clemens after Kelly Johnson's third straight single. Jennings also
preserved the shutout by running down Jason Castro's 400-foot line
drive to center field for the final out with a runner on base.
"Archy deserved it," Jennings said. "He threw as well as he
has all year. He deserved to finish that game. I thought from the
fourth or fifth inning he was going to pitch the whole game, just
by the way he was throwing every pitch where he wanted. That was
fun to watch."
Archer turned in Tampa Bay's 15th consecutive quality start and
went a second straight start without walking a batter. The Rays
have won his last five starts.
"I think good can be an understatement," Houston manager Bo
Porter said. "He was excellent today. It was more about him that
it was about anything else."
Rays manager Joe Maddon agreed, and will have to determine
whether Archer stays in the rotation when Alex Cobb comes off the
disabled list.
"Archy's been on a roll, but to pitch a complete game shutout
is different," Maddon said. "To go six innings and leave and get
a win is a nice thing, but the complete-game shutout, when you
teach yourself that lesson, the sky is the limit."
Jennings beat out an infield hit in the first and scored the
first run on Evan Longoria's double.
The Rays added two more runs in the fourth with the help of a
throwing error by Erik Bedard (3-6).
Bedard gave up eight hits and struck out six in five
Notes: Cobb pitched off the Tropicana Field mound for the first
time since being struck on the head by a line drive on June 15.
Cobb called it "a relief" to be back on the mound and said he
hopes to pitch in another game within a couple of weeks of the
All-Star break. … Longoria passed B.J. Upton and moved into
second place on the Rays' career list for extra-base hits. Longoria
has 341. Carl Crawford is the leader with 424. … Rays SS Yunel
Escobar left in the ninth inning with a mild hamstring strain. …
OF Chris Carter was out of the Astros' lineup for a second straight
day due to a sore ankle. … Astros LHP Brett Oberholtzer was
optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City after the game. … Porter
announced that Bud Norris will start the Astros' first game after
the break Friday against Seattle.

We are often looking for new options to serve the kids for breakfast. What a surprise when we found this wonderful recipe for protein pancakes that is a really healthy option. They are easy to make and absolutely delicious. The only tricky part was letting the pancakes cook on the grill just a bit longer than usual so that they flip nicely when the first side has browned.
Easy Protein Pancakes Recipe
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 2 tsp. sugar (optional)
Simply beat the eggs, then add the remaining ingredients. Stir well and cook on a griddle at about 375-400 degrees. Be sure to lightly wipe oil on the griddle before adding your batter to prevent sticking.
These were so yummy I could eat them every morning of the week ... really.

Details Emerging On Stingray Technology, Allowing Feds To Locate People By Pretending To Be Cell Towers
from the without-warrants-of-course dept
They apparently used this technology to arrest a guy named Daniel David Rigmaiden, but he's now causing some trouble. That's because he's asking for the details of how he was found, and the court seems equally concerned that this was done outside of the bounds of the Fourth Amendment. It won't surprise you to discover that law enforcement regularly uses such Stingrays without a warrant. Apparently, the court is skeptical of the government's claim that it doesn't need a warrant to use such a device:
In a February hearing, according to a transcript, Judge Campbell asked the prosecutor, "Were there warrants obtained in connection with the use of this device?"Last week, the feds argued that they should not have to explain how they tracked Rigmaiden, because it would reveal too much information "since its public release could harm law enforcement efforts by compromising future use of the equipment." So, we can't tell you if the tracking system we use violates the 4th Amendment, because, you know, you might stop us from using it. Very compelling, but all too typical of law enforcement these days. Hopefully the court rejects the argument.
The prosecutor, Frederick A. Battista, said the government obtained a "court order that satisfied [the] language" in the federal law on warrants. The judge then asked how an order or warrant could have been obtained without telling the judge what technology was being used. Mr. Battista said: "It was a standard practice, your honor."
Judge Campbell responded that it "can be litigated whether those orders were appropriate."
Later in the article, various law enforcement officials say that they can use the device since it only detects location, but doesn't eavesdrop. That's pretty questionable. The 4th Amendment doesn't make such a distinction. In fact, reading the 4th Amendment:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.It would seem that using such a device to locate a person in their house without a warrant seems to clearly violate the text of the Amendment. Hopefully the court will agree.

If you missed "Sharknado" when it aired on Syfy, now you're going to have to pay for it.
The low-budget cheese-fest, starring Ian Ziering and Tara Reid battling a tornado of deadly sharks above Los Angeles, is making the leap from cable TV to movie theaters. It's going to be playing in over 200 theaters at midnight on Friday, Aug. 2. (Technically, it's 12:05 a.m. on Saturday). The full list of theaters can be found here.
The producers promise never-before-seen footage from the movie, a behind-the-scenes featurette and even a gag reel. Watching Ian Ziering blow his lines repeatedly is probably best enjoyed in the wee hours of the night, anyway.
PHOTOS: 'Sharknado' to 'The Heat' — a very B movie summer
The original TV movie, which aired July 11, drew only a so-so audience of 1.37 million viewers, but it was a social media phenomenon. It drew enough attention that a sequel has been green-lighted and is expected to air on Syfy in July 2014.
While it's too soon to tell if this midnight showing of "Sharknado" will spawn a generation's worth of midnight fun a la "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" or even "The Room," it's probably not a bad idea to come dressed as your favorite shark. Or maybe your favorite shark hunter. Or any costume at all, really.
After all, no one watches "Sharknado" just to watch "Sharknado."

Information for Patients
Blood Clots
Also called: Hypercoagulability
Normally, if you get hurt, your body forms a blood clot to stop the bleeding. After the bleeding stops and healing takes place, your body usually breaks down and removes the clot. But some people get too many clots or their blood clots abnormally. Many conditions can cause the blood to clot too much or prevent blood clots from dissolving properly.
Risk factors for excessive blood clotting include
- Certain genetic disorders
- Atherosclerosis
- Diabetes
- Atrial fibrillation
- Overweight, obesity, and metabolic syndrome
- Some medicines
- Smoking
- Staying in one position for a long time, such as being in the hospital or taking a long car or plane ride

Vascular Diseases
The vascular system is the body's network of blood vessels. It includes the arteries, veins and capillaries that carry blood to and from the heart. Problems of the vascular system are common and can be serious. Arteries can become thick and stiff, a problem called atherosclerosis. Blood clots can clog vessels and block blood flow to the heart or brain. Weakened blood vessels can burst, causing bleeding inside the body.
You are more likely to have vascular disease as you get older. Other factors that make vascular disease more likely include
- Family history of vascular or heart diseases
- Pregnancy
- Illness or injury
- Long periods of sitting or standing still
- Any condition that affects the heart and blood vessels, such as diabetes or high cholesterol
- Smoking
- Obesity
Losing weight, eating healthy foods, being active and not smoking can help vascular disease. Other treatments include medicines and surgery.

Grae's Rating:
More fun than hunting an Ewok.
Who's In It: Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Seth Rogen, Justin Bateman, Joe Lo Truglio, Bill Hader, Kristen Wiig, Jeffrey Tambor, Jane Lynch, Sigourney Weaver
The Basics: Imagine that E.T. swore a lot and the bad guys coming after him were incompetent, reckless, and loved pictures of women with 3 boobs. Then instead of a cute bunch of kids, there were 2 nerdy Brits and that funny lady from Saturday Night Live. And a motorhome instead of a suburban house. There you have it, that's the movie.
What's The Deal: Simon Pegg and Nick Frost have been raising the bar in comedy through writing or acting (or both) since 1999 with the series Spaced. Then, a magical thing happened and they made Shaun of the Dead together. I consider this to be a milestone in film, since it took the two tired genres of comedy and zombie flicks and injected them with new life. Paul is a welcome addition to their trove of limey goodness, since there are plenty of laughs, lots of nerd references, and a relatively engaging chase story. It's not on par with the aforementioned projects, or even Hot Fuzz, but it still gets the job done. It's not the comedy of the year, but it counts as a fun night out at the movies.
Like A Great Sports Bra: There is plenty of support in this film to make it lots of fun. Even though most of the cast appears for mere moments, they really make it count. Jane Lynch plays a waitress with an amazing head of teased blonde hair. Jeffrey Tambor shows up as Adam Shadowchild, a fake Comic-Con legend, whose arrogance rolls off his Indiana Jones hat like the stench from Jabba the Hut's skin folds. Jason Bateman is perfect as the slick, calculating FBI agent, and Bill Hader and Joe Lo Truglio are engaging as his bungling underlings with a thing for comic books. David Koechner shows up as a rubbery lipped aggressive redneck, and John Carroll Lynch is great wielding a shotgun. Each character just adds a modicum of wackiness but it's not beaten into the ground. They do their thing, get scared of Paul, and leave somehow. On to the next gag.
Nerd Catnip: The mark of good writing is present here, since the movie is funny on its own, but also works on that post-modern level. If you're a nerd that knows the song that is playing in the Star Wars cantina, you'll be delighted to see it make an appearance. There are ironic T-shirts, Close Encounters jokes, and one liners that you'll miss if you're sitting with a raucous audience.
The Eyes Have It: Originally I thought Seth Rogen was a weird choice for the voice of an alien, but he really does a nice job here. Somehow that rich, stonery growl of his fits into Paul's body very well, and the little alien becomes just as likable as iconic little green guys before him. It definitely helped that animators have really been paying attention to eyes lately—staring into little Paul's vast irises was like seeing the limpid pools in the Milky Way of his soul.
Paul ROCKS . they really could have gotten by with PG-13.

Smoke Restful blues are perennially popular, but with the piles of shades to pick from, getting it right can be a tough call. "This year's take is a spa-like blue that gets updated thanks to a sophisticated grey," says Benjamin Moore's colour spokesperson Sharon Grech. Most often you see soft blue paint colours in a bedroom or bathroom, but it can be just as striking in a living room with a contrasting-colour ceiling. Shown:

Just got in to Pittsburgh this morning and was wondering if someone could help me out. I was wondering what time the players arrived at the arena and if there was any chance of seeing them. If so, where is the best place to see them enter?
Also, I was wondering what time they hold their game day and off day practices, where, and if they are open to the public.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Crawler Tractor
From RitchieWiki
Mining Equipment
There are two main types of crawler tracks: "Christie suspension" uses oversized road wheels, laying the tracking on top of the wheels creating a banana-like appearance as the tracks droop after running over the driving wheel and idler. "Vickers suspension" uses smaller return rollers holding the track straight from the idler to the driving wheel, making the tracks look like a sideways D-shape.[1]
Source(s): Crawler Tractor
[edit] History
[edit] So Many Inventors, So Many Patents
The first seeds of crawler tractor history were planted more than two and half centuries ago. In 1713, Frenchman M. D'Hermand created a crawler tread trailer to be pulled by goats. In 1770, English writer and inventor Richard Edgeworth patented the first steam-driven moving tracking tread system. In 1826, another British inventor, George Cayley, developed a continuous track system he called the "universal railway." In 1837, the Russian inventor, Dmitry Zagryazhsky, was working on a "carriage with mobile tracks."[2] However, none of theses inventors were able move far beyond the paper or prototype stage.
Alvin Lombard of Waterville Iron Works in Waterville, Maine was the first to institute the crawler track system into vehicle production. The Lombard log hauler, patented in 1901, was designed to improve traction in the snow. Initially these steam-powered tractors were steered by horses until Lombard installed a steering wheel and sled system to the front of the machine. Though the Lombard log haulers were capable of towing up to 300 tons, they were not equipped with brakes.[3] They pulled logs on sleds driving four to five miles (6.4 to 8 km) per hour. In total, 83 Lombard log haulers were manufactured. With the majority of sales in Maine and New Hampshire, three were sold to Russia and one each to Wisconsin and Michigan.[4]
Despite the initial successes of Alvin Lombard, it wasn't until construction pioneer Benjamin Holt entered the crawler tractor industry that the machine became truly popular. As head of the Holt Manufacturing Company in Stockton, California, his vehicles were suffering from the tenderness of the rich soil in the western states. His company began experimenting with a variety of wheel systems to stop tractors from sinking into the soil. Holt Manufacturing added more and more wheels until its vehicles were 45 feet (13.7 m) wide, with wheel diameters of 12 feet (3.7 m). Holt eventually started experimenting with crawler tracks in 1904. After a number of successful tests his company sold its first crawler in 1906. Lombard believed Holt's crawler tractor was a reproduction of his log hauler and was upset Holt failed to pay any sort of royalties.
Meanwhile, in England, David Roberts, chief engineer of R. Hornsby & Sons, patented his own track design in 1904. He attached his tracks to an oil-powered tractor, but sales never succeeded like they had for Holt Manufacturing. He sold his patent to Holt in 1914.
[edit] Gas-powered Engines and the Bulldozer
Holt quickly began developing a gasoline-powered motor to replace steam driven tractors. He and his nephew Pliny established Aurora Engine Co. in Stockton in October 1906. Within two months, they were testing their first motor. By 1908 testing had progressed and Holt sold their first gas-powered "Caterpillar" crawler tractor; it was designated Model 40. The engine was a four-cylinder, 6x8 bore-a-stroke, valve-in-head engine rated at 25-drawbar horsepower. Initially, these gas-powered tractors were primarily used for agricultural projects. However, by attaching a large blade to the front of the tractor, its usability increased tremendously. The bulldozer was born.
Weaker versions of the bulldozer had been achieved in the nineteenth century by attaching shovels to horses, but the crawler tractor could increase its power exponentially. The first shovels fixed to tractors had to be powered by manually moving the blade with hand wheels. Experimentation with bulldozers improved in the early 1920s, with the first hydraulically operated dozer blade manufactured in 1925 by LaPlant-Choate Manufacturing Co. of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. This blade was attached to the tractor on a rectangular frame, pivoting on the crawler's frame, and controlled by a hydraulic cylinder at the rear of the tractor.
Movement of the blade was enhanced with the development of the Power Controlled Unit (PCU), introduced by Robert Gilmore LeTourneau in 1928. The new unit was controlled through the use of clutches and brakes, and was available with four winches. The Power Controlled Unit was also used in a wide range of other attachments including pull-type scrapers and rippers.
While initial blade development was done separately from tractors, individual companies soon began teaming together with tractor manufacturers creating a more unified, stronger product. Baker joined with Allis-Chalmers, Bucyrus-Erie with International, and LeTourneau with Caterpillar.
By the 1940s, tractor manufacturers integrated blade development into their facilities. Ten years later, the tractors and blades were no longer individual pieces, but were built to create one seamless vehicle.
[edit] The Crawler Tractor During Wartime
The success of the crawler tractor spawned the development of the tank. Its tracks could traverse almost any condition making it perfect for the elements of war. It made its first worldwide appearance in World War I. The Americans' development of the tank lagged behind their European allies because they didn't become involved in the war until quite late, 1917. However, after viewing the success of tracked vehicles in war, the U.S. instituted mass development and production.[5]
By World War II, crawler tractors and bulldozers had increased in versatility. They were used for combat construction all over Europe, Asia and the Pacific. With the muddy conditions of the jungles, no piece of machinery was better equipped to traverse the terrain than the crawler tractor. It was responsible for moving artillery while the bulldozer leveled ground for roads and airfields and cleared debris.
[edit] Post-war DevelopmentsInternational Harvester introduced the largest tractor yet, the TD-30, in 1962. A year later Allis-Chalmers continued the trend by building the HD-41, which had an operating weight of 70 tons and was equipped with a 524 horsepower engine.
Competition among companies led to a series of trend-setting developments. Caterpillar established and patented sealed and lubricated tracks that extended the life of pins and brushings by 30 percent.[6] JCB and Liebherr introduced hydrostatic drive crawlers in the early 1970s. Caterpillar pioneered the "high drive" undercarriage with its D10 model in 1978.
[edit] The Age of Comfort
While engine and blade development continued, a new concern took focus: the comfort of the tractor operator. Early tractor and bulldozer operators were required to move machinery with heavy hand wheels and were subject to the natural elements. Modern operators are equipped with all hydraulic controls and seated in covered air-conditioned cabs with multi-position seats, radios, and cup holders. As new developments were introduced, the power and versatility of the crawler tractor/bulldozer increased.
[edit] Other Developments
Crawler tractors have been fitted with a variety of attachments and the crawler track system has been adapted to number of different construction vehicles.
One common attachment is the toothed ripper. It is a claw-type device, usually mounted to the rear of the vehicle. Rippers can either be equipped with a single-shank (meaning one tooth) or multi-shank (two or more teeth). The ripper is mainly used to rip large objects from the ground (e.g., large rocks, tree stumps) or to loosen soils so they can be excavated.
Crawler loaders were established as the result of removing the large bulldozer blade and replacing it with a large volume bucket designed to lift and carry heavy materials.
[edit] Features/How It Works/Types
The tracks are made up of modular-chain links that form an enclosed chain. Each link is broad and often made of manganese alloy steel to increase strength and durability. The track is set to the ground by inner road wheels, called bogies or track rollers. When mounted on suspension, the bogies can cushion the ride. The tracks move on a toothed drive wheel, or drive sprocket, that connects to holes in the track links. Also, a non-powered wheel, known as an idler, is mounted at either or both ends of the tracks to increase tension, allowing tracks to move more smoothly.
The bulldozer blade is operated with hydraulics and comes in three different models: a straight blade is short with no lateral curve or side wings, and is used for fine grading. The universal blade is tall and curved with large side wings enabling it to carry a heavy load. The combination straight-universal blade melds the two styles, retaining size and curvature, but less extreme in both. It is used mainly for pushing piles of large rocks.
Additional types of blades include the angle dozer in which a removable angling blade is pinned to a "C frame" which is bolted to the crawler tractor.
Smaller crawler tractors can have a six-way blade which, in addition to raising and lowering, can also angle and tilt.
