What will be hot in the rights center at this year's London confab? Donna Tartt returns after another decadelong pause; Stephen Hawking writes about history... his own; Alice McDermott gets ordinary; Delia Ephron opens up about her sister; and Phil Collen goes on the record about Def Leppard.
Baror International
Baror International will be bringing Christopher Golden's Tin Men (Random, spring 2014), a thriller described as "Avatar meets Robopocalypse" that's already been optioned by Warner Bros. for seven figures. Young adult author Lauren DeStafano, whose previous trilogy, Chemical Garden, sold in 21 languages, returns with The Internment Chronicles (Simon & Schuster, Oct.) this year at London for Baror. The novel takes place on a floating island in the clouds called Internment, where there's only one rule: don't approach the edge. Terry Goodkind's latest, The Third Kingdom (Tor, Aug.), the sequel to The Omen Machine (2011), has already sold in the U.K. to HarperCollins. Kingdom follows what happens next in Richard and Kahlan's world now that the war has ended. Set to be published within a few weeks of Dan Brown's Inferno (May), Dan Burstein and Arne de Keijzer's Secrets of Inferno aims to attract readers looking for more info on Dante, Florence, philosophy, art, and other topics addressed in Brown's novel. Burstein and de Keijzer's Secrets of the Code, which tied in with The Da Vinci Code, spent six months on the New York Times bestseller list in 2004. Secrets of Inferno is about 30,000 words in length and has no U.S. publisher yet. On the nonfiction front, Baror will bring The App Generation: Identity, Intimacy, and Imagination in Today's Youth by Howard Gardner and Katie Davis (Yale University Press, Nov.). Gardner and Davis, in researching the book, have studied the role of technology in the lives of young people (or "digital natives") since 2006. Gardner has received a MacArthur Prize and a Guggenheim Fellowship, and is perhaps most famous for his book Frames of Mind.
Curtis Brown/Gelfman Schneider
On the fiction side for CB is Margaret Atwood's latest, Maddaddam (Nan Talese, Aug.), which is the final book in the author's speculative trilogy that began with Oryx and Crake. Another big author the agency will be touting is John le Carré, whose A Delicate Truth (Penguin, Apr.) was billed by CB as "a furiously paced story of moral dilemma." On Gelfman Schneider's list is bestseller Jeffrey Deaver's The October List (Grand Central, Oct.), which begins with the scene of a mother who has just shot and killed a man in the aftermath of her daughter's kidnapping; narratively, the novel then works backward from there. From Child 44 author Tom Rob Smith is The Farm (Grand Central, spring 2014), a contemporary thriller set in Sweden and focused on the kidnapping of a young girl. The big nonfiction title from the agencies is Carol Baxter's The Peculiar Case of the Electric Constable (OneWorld, Sept.), about the first murderer—a British man named John Tawell—who was captured using the telegraph.
DeFiore & Company
Brandon Stanton's Humans of New York (St. Martin's, Oct.) is among the big titles featured by the agency. Based on the wildly popular Web site of the same name, the photo book will "bring urban humanity, style, and humor to life." Fans of the #1 New York Times bestseller Eat to Live will find plenty of recipes in Dr. Joel Fuhrman's Eat to Live Cookbook (HarperOne, Aug.). Inspired by the true life of Russian inventor Leon Theremin, Sean Michaels's Us Conductors (Knopf Random Canada, 2014) will also be presented by the agency. Michaels is the creator of the music blog "Said the Gramophone" and is the North American music correspondent for the Guardian; U.S. rights are currently being sold. Another biographical title to be featured is God's Pilot by Robert Coram (St. Martin's/Dunne, spring 2015), which follows the life of World War II pilot and author Robert Lee Scott. With Korean and Arabic rights already sold, Ty Tashiro's The Science of Happily Ever After: Why We Choose the Wrong Partners and the Three Wishes that Matter in the Quest for Enduring Love (Harlequin Nonfiction, February 2014) also hopes to make a splash at the show. Tashiro, a relationship psychologist, reveals the three traits that really matter in the search for love.
The Dijkstra Literary Agency
One title the Dijkstra Agency is excited about is Amy Tan's Valley of Amazement (Ecco, Nov.). And with good reason: her books, including The Joy Luck Club and The Kitchen God's Wife, have been translated into over 30 languages. In Valley, Tan focuses on the life of an elite Chinese-American courtesan who travels between Shanghai and San Francisco in the early years of the 20th century. Author of Why the West Rules, Ian Morris's next book is War! What Is It Good For (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, spring 2014), which will present the counterintuitive argument for "why and how war has, after all, been good for something." Preempted in a six-figure, two-book deal is Dan Ward's F.I.S.T.: Why Being Fast, and Inexpensive, Simple and Tiny Makes Innovation Better (Harper, spring 2014). Ward, an Afghan War veteran, was recently asked to teach his F.I.S.T. program at the White House. Another Harper title is Janie Chang's Three Souls (spring 2014), a novel about Leiyin Song's journey to enter the afterlife after her punishment for disobedience.
Dystel & Goderich Literary Management
One of the titles DGLM will be talking up is the memoir Now I See You (St. Martin's, spring 2014) by Nicole C. Kear, who found out at age 19 that she had a degenerative disease that would likely leave her blind by the age of 30. From self-published bestseller R.K. Lilley is the erotic romance series Up In the Air, about a conservative flight attendant who meets a rich hotelier on the job. Another big novel for the agency is Deathdates (Hyperion, late 2014/early 2015), the YA debut from adult mystery author Victoria Laurie, about a 17-year-old girl with the ability to predict when people will die. The agency will also be pushing the latest from Maze Runner author James Dashner, The Eye of Minds (Delacorte, Oct.), which is the first book in his Mortality Doctrine series and, DGLM said, follows a gamer who "fights an unseen, dangerous enemy in the VirtNet." In addition, the agency is featuring the first two books in Angie Stanton's YA contemporary romance series about the love lives of members of a rock band the Jamison Collection is being repackaged by Harper for a fall release after becoming self-published hits.
Foundry Literary + Media
On the nonfiction front, Foundry has David Menasche's The Priority List (Touchstone, Sept.), a memoir by a popular Florida high school English teacher with terminal brain cancer. Menasche goes on a cross-country trip to reunite with former students and find out if, and how, he impacted their lives. Then there's the originally self-published bestselling diet book Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle (Crown, Jan. 2014), by Tom Venuto, which the agency said "reveals the secrets of the leanest people in the world." In the music arena is Def Leppard lead guitarist Phil Collen's Photographs (Atria, fall 2014), which the agency called a "surprisingly sensitive yet satisfyingly raucous" take on his time with the heavy metal band. Moving to fiction, Foundry will be talking up screenwriter/director/producer Shane Kuhn's debut, The Intern's Handbook (Simon & Schuster, spring/summer 2014), about a guy named John Lago who creates a "survival guide" for interns at Human Resources Inc. (a front for an assassin training program). The other big novel for the agency is Feuds (St. Martin's) by Avery Hastings, the first book in a series described as something with "echoes of Romeo and Juliet and Gattaca."
The Gernert Company
Alice McDermott is one of Gernert's notables, with Someone (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, Sept.), a novel the agency said follows "the sharp pains and unexpected joys lived by an ordinary woman." Another fiction title on Gernet's hot list is Babayaga (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, Aug.) by Toby Barlow, a tale set in postwar Paris about "star-crossed love, bloodthirsty witches, and a police inspector turned into a flea." The other big novel for the agency is Charlie Lovett's The Bookman's Tale (Viking, June), which follows an antiquarian bookseller and will, Gernert said, appeal to fans of Carlos Ruiz-Zafon and Lee Carrell. One of the two nonfiction books Gernert will be pushing hard is Harvard Business School professor Anita Elberse's Blockbusters: Hit-making, Risk-taking and the Big Business of Entertainment (Holt, Sept.), in which she delves into how and why it's necessary to take risks in order to succeed in the entertainment industry. Then Harvard lecturer John Macmillan has Beatles vs. Stones (Simon & Schuster, Oct.), a history of the relationship between the two towering British rock bands.
The Frances Goldin Literary Agency
Among the agency's notable novels is playwright Monica Byrne's debut The Girl in the Road (Crown), which the shingle called a "near-future tale of a young woman walking from India to Africa on a forbidden bridge across the sea." From author Lan Cao is The Lotus and the Storm, the follow-up to her bestselling Monkey Bridge, which describes the relationship between a daughter and her father, a former South Vietnamese colonel, as they are "forced to confront their lingering personal demons." The other novel the agency is particularly excited about is Mary Miller's debut, King Jesus Returns (Norton, Feb. 2014), which follows a teenage girl on a road trip with her devout and dysfunctional family. On the nonfiction side is Canadian journalist Brice Grierson's What Makes Olga Run? (Holt, no pub date yet), about the 93-year-old athlete Olga Kotelko —her sport is track and field—and how she manages to perform at such a high level at her advanced age. The other big nonfiction book for the outfit is University of Kentucky professor Susan Bordo's The Creation of Anne Boleyn (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Apr.), which it called "an appreciation of the doomed queen, and a critical look at the myths and slanders that have grown up around her."
Sanford J. Greenburger Associates
As is to be expected, the latest from Dan Brown, Inferno (Doubleday, May), is on SJGA's hot list. The new book features Brown's hero, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon; this time around, Langdon is in Italy working on a mystery involving Dante's eponymous text. Another big novel the agency will be pushing is Brad Thor's Hidden Order (Atria/Emily Bestler, July), which is the latest in the bestselling Scot Harvath series. From Lamar Herrin is Fractures (St. Martin's/Dunne, Nov.), which SJGA called an "emotional literary drama of a family struggling to hold it together." Karen Sandler has Clean Burn (Exhibit A, Aug.), the first title in a new suspense series featuring the PI Janelle Watkins. From Sandra Marton comes the romance The Prince of Pleasure (self-published by the author in Nov. 2012), which is the first book in a new series called the Wilde Family Saga; SJGA noted that Marton has sold over 35 million copies in more than 20 languages. And Katie Sise has written The Boyfriend App (Balzer + Bray, May), a YA novel that the agency said is "for the iPhone generation" and features a "spunky, tech-savvy teenage girl inventor."
ICM (handled by Curtis Brown)
One of ICM's big novels in London will be the latest from Donna Tartt. The Goldfinch (Little, Brown, Oct.)—the author's first book in over a decade—is, the agency said, a "haunted odyssey through present-day America." From the author of The Summer Without Men, Siri Hustvedt, is The Blazing World (Simon & Schuster, 2014), described by ICM as "an intellectual detective story set in the art world." The other big fiction here is Laura Kasischke's Mind of Winter (HarperCollins, 2014), which plays out over the course of a single Christmas day, as tensions flair between a mother and her adopted teenage daughter, after they find themselves trapped in their home by a snow storm. On the nonfiction front, ICM will be talking up The Disaster Artist by Greg Sestero, writing with Tom Bissell (Simon & Schuster, Oct.), a memoir/account from a French-American actor who starred in the cult film The Room, which Entertainment Weekly called "the Citizen Kane of bad movies." The agency's other big nonfiction book is The Chaos Imperative by Ori Brafman (Crown, Aug.), about, ICM noted, "how organizations can drive growth and profits by allowing contained chaos." Brafman is an organizational expert who cowrote, among other titles, Click.
Inkwell Management
On the fiction side, one of Inkwell's big books is Courtney Cole's If You Stay (Grand Central, spring), an originally self-published e-book bestseller that is the first installment in the Beautifully Broken series, about a bad boy who begins to mend his ways when he falls for a sweet girl. From Carole Radziwill is The Widow's Guide to Sex & Dating (Holt, fall), which the agency described as a "deliciously smart comedy" about a widowed New Yorker looking to find a new relationship full of a passion she never knew. The other fiction title Inkwell will be pushing hard is bestseller David Vann's 1978-set Goat Mountain (HarperCollins, Sept.), about an 11-year-old boy who joins his male family members on their annual deer hunt for the first time, only to watch the event unexpectedly take a tragic turn. Among the agency's nonfiction offerings is U.S.C. neuroscience professor Antonio Damasio's Once More with Feeling (Pantheon, 2014), which "aims to explain the development of cultures and civilizations from the perspective of the human brain." And from lauded European journalist Janine di Giovanni, Seven Days in Syria (Norton, 2014) offers, the agency explained, a look at "the universal aspects of war" through the lens of the Syrian Civil War, which the author has been covering for the New York Times.
Janklow & Nesbit
Crazy Rich Asians (Doubleday, June) by Kevin Kwan is among J&N's top titles in London; the debut novel is, the agency said, "outrageously funny" and follows "jet-setting, super-rich, pedigreed Chinese families" involved in "gossip, backbiting, and scheming." From Jayne Anne Phillips is Quiet Dell (Scribner, Oct.), a novel based on a crime committed in 1931 in West Virginia. Then there's the anthology edited by Ryan North, Matthew Bennardo, and David Malki, This Is How You Die (Grand Central, July), which is the follow-up to the trio's hit Machine of Death. On the nonfiction front for J&N is Howard Blum's Dark Invasion (Crown, Nov.), which follows NYPD Captain Tom Tunney, who, with a team of investigators, thwarted a major terror campaign perpetrated by German spies during WWI. The other nonfiction book the agency will be pushing hard is Sister Mother Husband Dog (Penguin/Blue Rider, Sept.) by Delia Ephron—a collection of essays and stories that J&N said is "anchored by a remembrance of losing her sister, Nora Ephron."
William Morris Endeavor
Among the agency's big books in London are Panache Desai's series of three untitled inspirational books that Spiegel & Grau is tentatively set to launch in spring 2014. Desai has been featured on Oprah's OWN Network, and these books, which will be short (under 200 pages each) and published in quick succession, will mark his print debut. Another major nonfiction book for the agency is Pulitzer-winner Sheri Fink's narrative work Five Days at Memorial (Crown, Sept.), which WME called a "fast-paced" recreation of a week at a hospital devastated by Hurricane Katrina. From David King is The Trial of Adolf Hitler, which was, at press time, under auction in the U.S. and the U.K. The book, which chronicles Hitler's trial after his first attempt to take down the German government (known as the Beer Hall Putsch), is, WME said, "the first book-length account of this gripping true story." Another nonfiction notable is Benjamin Moser's (authorized) Susan Sontag biography, which FSG bought in the States, and for which Moser (an editor at Harper's) had, WME noted, "unprecedented access" to the subject's son, David Reiff. On the fiction front is Brian Hart's The Bully of Order, which was, at press time, also on submission in the U.S. and U.K, and follows characters in a town in the Pacific Northwest at the turn of the 20th century.
Jean V. Naggar Literary Agency
The agency will feature the lead title from Dutton's fall list, M.D. Waters's debut Archetype (early 2014), which is being pitched as a cross between S.J. Watson's Before I Go To Sleep and Piers Anthony's Total Recall (with some nods at Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale for good measure). The novel takes place in a futuristic world where women are a rare commodity. The heroine is trapped between two men—her enemy and her husband—but she can't remember which is which. The book's sequel, Prototype, will be published by Dutton six months later, in summer 2014. On the nonfiction side is Why Disasters Matter by John Mutter (spring 2014), for which Palgrave Macmillan has secured world English rights. In the book, Mutter, a natural scientist and a social scientist, examines the most extreme disasters to have rocked our planet over the last decade, and provides an optimistic exploration of how we can prevent future disaster outcomes. On the children's front, Julie Bourbeau's The Tyrant's Daughter (Random House BYR, spring 2014) follows 15-year-old Laila, whose life has been turned upside down during her family's exile from an unspecified Arab country, after her father—the king—was murdered. The agency has Sourcebooks' fall lead title in The Book of Someday by Dianne Dixon (Sept.), which tells the stories of three women connected by a mystery. Rights in the U.K. and Poland have been sold for C.W. Gortner's Borgia's Daughter (Ballantine, summer 2014), the story of Lucrezia Borgia, one of history's most infamous women, rumored to be both her father's and her brother's lover.
Jane Rotrosen Agency
Stephanie Evanovich's debut Big Girl Panties (Morrow, July) was picked by PW as one of the most anticipated books of spring (Jan. 28) and will be featured by the agency at the show. Another hot novel on the list is Touch & Go by Lisa Gardner (Dutton, Feb.), which is about an entire family that goes missing and Detective D.D. Warren's search to find them; U.K. rights have been sold to Headline. Julie Garwood's Hotshot (Dutton, Aug.), which has sold world English rights, is about a group of sisters running an oceanfront resort when, one day, they begin receiving threats. Garwood is a #1 New York Times bestselling author and her books have been published in 33 languages. Bestselling author Kristin Hannah's latest, Fly Away (St. Martin's, May), is set in the same world as Firefly Lane, and begins at the end of Kate Ryan's life; U.K. rights have been sold to Macmillan. The agency is also excited about Tami Hoag's The 9th Girl (Dutton, June), the latest from the bestselling author whose books have been published in 32 languages. This book is about the discovery of a grisly murder in the Midwest, perhaps the latest in a string of serial murders plaguing the area.
Trident Media Group
Trident will be featuring two erotic contemporary romances centering on a young woman who meets an enigmatic martial arts master with knowledge of Japanese bondage. Called Unwound, the series is by Lorelei James and the books are set to be published by NAL in November 2013 and February 2014. (NAL has world English rights, and Trident will handle translation rights sales.) A book drawing comparisons to The Accidental Billionaires is filmmaker Blake Harris's Console Wars: Sega, Nintendo, and the Battle that Defined a Generation (HarperCollins, spring 2014), a behind-the-scenes business thriller that the agency is also excited about; rights sold in Brazil. Three-time Edgar Award–winner T. Jefferson Parker's Full Measure is also on Trident's list. The novel is about 22-year-old Patrick Norris's return to his hometown after a year of combat in Afghanistan. At home, Norris tries to return to a normal life, despite drought and a serial arsonist running rampant. Hesh Kestin's The Lie (Scribner, spring 2014) is being called a minute-by-minute suspense novel, centering on a daring raid led by a human rights attorney in an attempt to rescue her son from terrorist in Beirut. Kestin is a reporter and the founder of two newspapers. Another of Trident's featured titles is A Deadly Justice by Kathy Bennett, the next police procedural from the Amazon bestselling author. Recently widowed, Detective Maddie Devine of the LAPD must confront a crime she feels responsible for while risking her life as she hunts down a serial rapist and killer.
Ed Victor
Among EV's notable books is Eoin Colfer's The Reluctant Assassin (Hyperion, Apr.), the first book in a new series called WARP (Witness Anonymous Relocation Program)—a program "used by the FBI to hide important witnesses in the past," the agency said. There's also the thriller The Kill List (Putnam, Sept.) by Frederick Forsyth, which follows a secretive ex-Marine given the assignment of taking out someone known as The Preacher, who is the latest person to top America's list of most wanted terrorists. From Lea Carpenter is Eleven Days (Knopf, June), a novel the agency said "touches on some of the most profound questions we have about war in the modern age." One of EV's nonfiction offerings is Geordie Greig's Breakfast With Lucian (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, Oct.), a book about Lucian Freud by a man who was a member of an intimate group in Notting Hill that regularly shared morning meals with the artist over the course of a decade. The other big nonfiction book EV will be promoting is Ten Steps to Smarter Decisions in a Confusing World (HarperCollins, Sept.), by Noreena Hertz, an English economist whom the agency calls "one of the most influential and visionary thinkers on the international stage."
Writers House
Among the two notable nonfiction titles WH is shopping is Stephen Hawking's My Brief History, a short (20,000 words) work adapted from the bestselling cosmologist's lecture of the same name, in which he narrated the story of his life. The other big nonfiction book from the agency is Things I've Learned from Dying (Twelve, Jan. 2014) by David Dow, which expands on journals the NBCC finalist's father-in-law kept while he was losing his battle with terminal cancer. Dow, a lawyer at a nonprofit legal aid that represents death row inmates, juxtaposes his family's experience through this tragedy "with death faced by his clients' families," WH said. On the nonfiction side is Steve Berry's The King's Deception (Ballantine, June), which brings back the author's recurring hero, Cotton Malone, in another historical mystery set during the Tudor era; WH noted there are over 15 million books by Berry in print. Another big novel for the agency is Tim Manley's Alice in Tumblr-Land (Penguin, Sept.), which the outfit described as "an illustrated humor book for adults in the tradition of Goodnight iPad." The agency is also excited about Elizabeth Gaffney's When the World Was Young (Random, Feb. 2014), a novel set in Brooklyn Heights during WWII that the agency said is about "the secrets that divide and the love that keeps us together."
The Wylie Agency
The shingle will be talking up Pulitzer-winner Michael Moss's Salt Sugar Fat (Random, Feb.) in the rights center; already published (in the States), the book is about processed-food manufacturers and, as the agency put it, "the story of how they have used three essential ingredients to dominate much of the world's diet." Wylie is heavy on nonfiction this year, and another big title is Mark Mazzetti's The Way of the Knife (Penguin Press, Apr.)—also a Pulitzer winner—about "the transformation of the CIA and America's special operations forces into manhunting and killing machines." From Leanne Shapton, Sheila Heti, and Heide Julavits is Women in Clothes (Penguin/Blue Rider, summer 2014), the first collaboration for the authors (who collectively write both fiction and nonfiction). The book is a "a series of conversations, interviews, essays, maps, exercises, photographs, and drawings that explore ideas about beauty, style, and how women decide to put themselves together." Paris Review editor and New York Times Magazine contributor John Jeremiah Sullivan has The Prime Minister of Paradise (Random, Jan. 2014), about Christian Priber, an obscure figure from American history who arrived in South Carolina in the 1730s. Priber, a German, was persecuted in Europe for supposedly being an atheist, and, after living with the Cherokee tribe in the forest for years, he established a utopian commune called Paradise. The big fiction book for the agency is the new novel from National Book Award–winner Colum McCann, TransAtlantic (Random, June), which has already been sold in a number of countries.

Everyone has the skills to contribute to MythTV. Remember that MythTV is a combination of technical and non-technical efforts. There are many ways for you and friends to contribute to improve MythTV even further.
Join us making your favorite media center even better than it already is today.
We welcome code contributions from anyone, whether you have a small fix or a new feature, a lot of programming experience or none at all. Learn more about writing code for MythTV here.
MythTV is primarily written in C++. Feel free to talk to us about your code and experiments in our mailinglists and chatgroups. Or code something up and submit it as a patch or feature to us. find out how to contact us here.
If you are more into design and graphics you will like the theme possibilities in MythTV to create new looks for the users to look at.
Theming can be as simple and complex as you want it to be. The best way to get started building your own theme is by experimenting with an existing theme. Learn more about this here.
Users have the possibility to extend their system with extra functionality by simply adding plugins. Users and developers can write their own plugins that run within MythTV and can be controlled by remote. A fast and easy way to get started is by taking a small existing plugin to start with. You can learn more about this here.
provide assistance to other users on our mailinglists and IRC-channels. Learn more here
Testing the latest version of MythTV is very important and timesaving for the developers. One does not need to be a developer to retreive the latest code and run it on their machine. But you do need to be aware that going to SVN code implies a certain responsibility on the user's part to debug their own problems, file useful bugreports, and be able to downgrade or upgrade accordingly to fix issues.
Find out how to get the latest code and run it on your machine here.
If you have language skills, you can work on internationalizing/translating the product. This is needed in the core system as well as the modules.
Documentation often lags behind features, improve the documentation to make it easier for new users and developers to get started with MythTV. Some suggestions:
- Wiki based manual - There's a project underway to create a user Manual which is starting to pick up steam. Contribute to the manual. The manual is available via the wiki pages, if you are not familiar with using a wiki than you can learn it in no-time here
- Wiki - The wiki contains al the information that should not be in the user manual. keeping the wiki pages up-to-date helps users and developers to find the right information.
- Screenshots - Screenshots are important for new users to get familiar with MythTV. The Screenshots page needs to be fleshed out, preferably illustrating the default theme as well as a couple of others, and at least one widescreen. Where possible it would be good to add short notes beside the screenshots to help visitors understand them correctly.
You can help bringing MythTV to the rest of us in various ways. Some examples are:
- write articles about MythTV
- help new MythTV users with their problems in forums, chatrooms (e.g. IRC), etc.
- Promote MythTV in news groups as a Mediacenter solution (or HTPC). A lot of people just don't know about the existence of MythTV and the possibilities.
- Post MythTV in binairy-newsgroups as a alternative to the illegal mediacenter downloads (or one of the easy to install MythTV_distros).
- remind people about the fact you don't need a expensive windows licence to use MythTV.
- suggest MythTV as a good alternative in mediacenter forums.
- Etc.

NEW YORK, Nov. 29 (UPI) -- U.S. doctors say they spend too much time on insurance company problems and tracking down patient information, a survey indicates.
The Commonwealth Fund International Health Policy Survey of nearly 8,500 primary care physicians in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States found communication and teamwork across the health system was a challenge in all countries.
In each, only a minority of primary care doctors reported always receiving timely information from specialist physicians after referring patients to them; just 11 percent of U.S. physicians said they had such information available when it was needed. A third to more than half of doctors across the countries surveyed said they were not always notified when their patients left the hospital.
However, the survey also found more than half of U.S. doctors said health insurance restrictions on their care decisions are a major time concern and they were also the most negative about their country's health system, with only 15 percent agreeing the healthcare system works well.
In addition, 59 percent of U.S. primary care physicians reported their patients often cannot afford medical care. In comparison, only 4 percent of primary care physicians in Norway said their patients could not afford medical care, 13 percent in Britain, 16 percent in Switzerland, 21 percent in Germany and 25 percent in Australia.
"The United States spends far more on medical care than the other countries we surveyed, yet our doctors are telling us their patients can't afford care, they don't always have the patient information they need, they spend too much time dealing with insurance companies, and we need major change," Cathy Schoen, senior vice president of the Commonwealth Fund, said in a statement.
Harris Interactive Inc. and country contractors conducted the surveys by mail and phone from March through July. The final samples included: 500 primary care doctors in Australia, 2,124 in Canada, 501 in France, 909 in Germany, 522 in the Netherlands, 500 in New Zealand, 869 in Norway, 1,025 in Switzerland, 500 in Britain and 1,012 in the United States. Sample sizes of 1,000 and 500 had a margin of sample error of 2 percentage points to 4 percentage points.

New Yahoo Election Tally Reveals Big Protest VoteBy Eric Auchard, Reuters | Posted 2008-08-06 Print
Yahoo said revised vote tallies showed 33.7 percent of recent board votes were withheld for Yang, the company's co-founder, or more than twice the opposition to his reappointment to the board as in the first count.
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Yahoo Inc on Tuesday released a recount of the vote for its board that revealed a strong protest vote against five of nine directors, including Chief Executive Jerry Yang.
The Internet company said revised vote tallies showed 33.7 percent of votes withheld for Yang, the company's co-founder, or more than twice the opposition to his reappointment to the board as in the first count.
Yang has been under pressure for months over failed attempts by Microsoft Corp to buy Yahoo and over questions about his leadership, but early results from Friday's shareholder vote suggested the tide was turning in his favor. The initial tally showed 85 percent of votes going to Yang.
The stunning new twist in the Yahoo saga came after one of its largest and most critical shareholders, Capital Research Global Investors, called for a probe of the shareholder vote after finding discrepancies in the results.
Analysts were split over whether the recount, while potentially emboldening for critics, was a symbolic embarrassment to the leadership or a new threat to its power.
"That's a big negative vote against the Yahoo board, but it doesn't change anything," RBC Capital Markets analyst Ross Sandler said. "It is a statement that they shouldn't be under any illusion that their support is broad.
"The recount somewhat lowers the credibility of the management team," Sanford C. Bernstein analyst Jeffrey Lindsay said. "Assuming this was all a mistake, it is particularly unfortunate: Management doesn't have the mandate they appeared to have had" coming out of the annual meeting, he said.
Yahoo said it had been informed by Corporate Election Services, the company's inspector of elections, that Broadridge Financial Solutions, a proxy voting intermediary for major investors, had made significant errors in reporting votes at its annual shareholder meeting.
Three other directors, including Chairman Roy Bostock, also had strong protest votes, with nearly 40 percent of votes withheld for Bostock, 38 percent withheld for director Ron Burkle and 32 percent withheld for Arthur Kern.
The three are members of Yahoo's compensation committee and have borne the brunt of criticism for the company refusing to do more to link executive pay to performance as corporate governance critics have demanded.
A fifth board member, Gary Wilson, the former chairman of Northwest Airlines, had 28 percent of votes on his reelection withheld.
The remaining four board members -- Vyomesh Joshi, Eric Hippeau, Robert Kotick and Mary Wilderotter -- all received strong endorsements, with each winning more than 90 percent of votes in favor of their reelection.
Ahead of the August 1 meeting, Kotick said he planned to resign shortly after the meeting as part of a settlement deal with proxy challenger Carl Icahn in which Icahn and two members of a slate proposed by the billionaire investor would join an expanded board of 11 members instead of the previous nine.
Gordon Crawford, whose Capital Research Global Investors owned 6.2 percent of Yahoo as of early June, said in May he was "extremely angry" at Yang over the breakdown of talks with Microsoft.
His fund asked for a shareholder vote recount on Monday.
Critics of corporate voting technology have called for a system overhaul to prevent such disputed ballots, saying the counting process is complicated and lacking in transparency.
In a statement, Broadridge acknowledged the error, but said it was an isolated incident and that it did not change the outcome of the election of the company's directors.
"Upon review, it was determined that there was a truncation error in the final printout sent to the tabulator," said Chuck Callan, Broadridge's senior vice president of regulatory affairs. "This resulted in the under-reporting of shares withheld for certain directors."
Shares of Yahoo had gained 2.3 percent to $19.82 in regular trading on Nasdaq amid gains in the broader market but edged down 3 cents to $19.79 in extended trade after the announcement of the revised vote totals.
RBC's Sandler said the investor saga was likely to drag on for the next several quarters until the company concludes its previously announced partnership with Google Inc, reaches a deal with Microsoft, or sells one of its Asian properties to help the company remain independent.
"For the next several quarters there is going to be more noise, especially with the stock below $20," Sandler said.
Microsoft backed out of an unsolicited takeover offer in May that valued Yahoo at about $33 a share in stock after Yahoo management rebuffed the offer. Microsoft later pursued a partial break-up of Yahoo, but those talks have also cooled.

NHS bitchslapped by ICO on data security
Serial fax offenders must grip the f–– up
The Information Commissioner's Office is working with Connecting for Health to try to get the NHS to take data security seriously.
The news comes as another five NHS bodies sign undertakings with the regulator to improve processes.
Information Commissioner Christopher Graham said: "The health service holds some of the most sensitive personal information of any sector in the UK. Millions of records are constantly being accessed and we appreciate that there will be occasions where human error occurs. But recent incidents such as the loss of laptops at NHS North Central London – which we are currently investigating – suggest that the security of data remains a systemic problem.
"The policies and procedures may already be in place but the fact is that they are not being followed on the ground. Health workers wouldn't dream of discussing patient information openly with friends and yet they continue to put information on unencrypted memory sticks or fax it to the wrong number."
Graham said the NHS needs a culture change to ensure data is properly looked after.
Basildon and Thurrock University Hospitals recently had to apologise for sending patient records to the wrong fax number. Dunelm Medical Practice also admitted fax misuse and disclosing two patients' discharge letters.
East Midlands Ambulance Service lost an unencrypted memory stick with patient records on it.
Ipswich Hospital NHS Trust admitted to having left 29 patient records containing sensitive information in a public place and Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust also owned up to serial fax abuse.
The full ICO undertakings can be downloaded here. ®

Okay, just to let everybody know, Wini (our last Moderator) was and is on a permanent leave of absence. Hateradio (the owner of this webiste and forum) has made me a Moderator. This means that I'll be accepting new members onto the forum, moderating discussions (obvious), and banning spammers, trolls, and anyone else who doesn't play nice after I warn them. I'll try to emulate Winilula in almost everyway. I'm here for you to feel safe, and if you have any problems with the board (the ones that are not technical), i'm here to help you. Feel free to PM me anytime. I'll be on a lot, so don't be shy to do so. Now for the title of the thread and an explanation. This board/forum is in a little depression. My job as a mod and board member is to get things a little more lively around here. I will be accepting new members and I will be encouraging old members to start posting again, but only if they want to of course. I'll try to get this place up and running, but it is all of our duties to try and spread the word that this is the website for AC fans to come and talk. We are the friendliest, the most polite, the most accepting, and the most open forum of the sort. I'll be greeting members like Wini used to do, and i'll say it again. I'm going to try my best at keeping this forum alive by almost any means possible. Your Friendlly Neighborhood Peacefish.
yay !!! Love you Peacey this makes me happppppeeeeeeee
Come September 4th, this board will be very active! Dont worry about it Peace!
Yay Peacey!!
Always knew you had it in you Fishy
I have a good feeling about this
peacey is our new master?! ALL HAIL PEACEFISH
Kid A avatar for the win! ALL HAIL PEACEFISH
Nope, Summertime Clothes Single FTW! Don't hail me, hail yourselves, your fellow members, Wini, and Hateradio first.
i miss wini
So do I! I was waiting for someone to say that... but Peacey is going to be a great mod!
just ate a grapefruit
On nom nom
bought a sex toy today, the store i went to was awesome
yeah bought a sex toy for my dog
DAVE! !EVAD seems like a fun way to say david!
This forum format sucks in many ways. That could be a contributing factor to people not posting more.
simplicity is key to order and discipline
Are you saying that this forum is good because it's simple? Or are you voting for more simplicity? This forum is anything but simple or ordered right now. It's pretty convoluted. Search feature doesn't work, the "Community" tab is useless now, subforums no longer exist for all intents and purposes. Redundant threads everywhere because of these issues.
Thing is Dave there's nothing we can do about it cause Hate's never here to fix anything. The only thing we can do is leave, or do something to grab his attention.
Yeah, my goal was to suggest the latter. And my next question was if there's any volunteers who know anything about web design.
If you want to start another one I've researched what it takes. I can create a new forum, well designed with all the features we'd want, the only cost being the domain space. I was hesitant though because I was unsure if anyone would want to, or follow.
I've had the same thought. I don't really go on this forum enough to be able to justify taking part in a major project like that. I imagine it would be a pretty time-consuming deal. Not to mention money-consuming. I'd be running purely on the novelty of being the forum owner if I bought it, though (it's something I've considered) and being able to make the site weird and cool and pretty and shit. And that's for sure not the right way to go about things, even though I'd almost be down to pay for it just because I like the thought of it so much. I know I like the thought of it far more than I'd like the reality. Nevertheless, it [i]is[/i] a tantalizing thought to have a site for this forum with an active forum owner. You ought to make a thread floating the idea, I'm sure other people will be interested. You also might be able to get Hate to sell the domain name to you, that was one thought I had. It all comes down to money and time, though. Who's willing to give, who has enough to share.
I'd donate
Claw we both have talked about this...
You and Dave or you and I, Pottle?
I don't have the money, but I have the time and enthusiasm. I'm more in favor of buying out this place and having a new owner. Maybe we could make a new place or something, but that seems like a lot more work. Work that is almost unnecessary. For the moment as things are, I'll continue doing my job, and I'll still encourage people to come here because we still have a good vibe on this forum. To me, that vibe is the thing that makes this board special.
revival! can we... SURVIVE HELL?
I dunno about the good vibes on this forum. This forum has an odd feel right now. It certainly has people with the capacity to make it positive.
Agreed Dave
well i stand by that thing i said of how for being so small and mellow / easy to keep up on and mostly no anger or trolling/trawling etc... how many people felt the need to leave forever or take breaks... so damn strange! maybe to others they'd find it weird the idea of being on some same board for like 10+ years? i think it can be fun! but then when a board that it has nearly been ten years exactly goes down it is SO SO SAD (MEN WITHOUT HATS BOARD! The Cyboard!) ... so sad! ... July 2002 i joined and i was so keyed up for the 10 year anne man! and the new album! as soon as one brother realized he lost THE GAME he threw in the damn towel and blew everything up! what a jerk!
Dude when I took a break from the board, the stuff I was reading was anytthing but mellow. Sayin'. But a lot of people have just left because they've lost interest in what's been going on here.
How would a new board fix that though? We would get the same people that post here on there. Not to mention the board wouldn't appear in google searches like this one does. We'd be stuck with the same people with no newcomers.
Dave pulled a machiavelli hahaha. I thnk the people are perfect. More people wouldbing diversity. By diversity I mean people who like AC's different times, periods and elements. Diversity also in age and tastes of music outside of Animal Collective. If we revamp the site I think more people would come. I'd donate... i suck with computers though.
"How would a new board fix that though?" I don't think it would. But no one thing will. The problem of general stagnancy on the board is made up of a lot of little things. Having an active forum owner would allow for advertising to happen (that's the only reason this one pops up on Google -- ads aren't that expensive and this one would show up on the first page of a Google search as soon as it was paid for) in new ways as well as old, meaning there could be advertisements in different places or on different forums and such; it would allow for a working downloads page to happen; it'd allow for a working search feature and topic subgroups and a board which has a format conducive to clear and useful information gathering and posting; it'd also allow for forum-wide votes on changes to moderators, or to stylistic changes of various sorts, or to new features being added on the website. Right now we have very little or none of those things. What you're saying is true about this not being a cure-all. I just feel like the board's format and lack of active administration is one problem among multiple major problems that contribute to the board's stagnancy. And it's one issue that has an easy route toward dealing with concretely. As far as people go, I'm not too concerned about that. I like the people here right now, it seems, and it'd be cool to have a forum that's pleasant to use for all involved.
i mustn't abandon my post! i'm like desmond in the damn d-BUNKER! see you in another life, bruthah! don't chu evah! i'm going down with this ship!
darling... you weren't foolin!
but can we... SURVIVE HELL?

Brian P. Bialas is an attorney at
Foley Hoag LLP in Boston who focuses on litigating cases involving
non-competition and non-solicitation agreements, trade
secrets, fiduciary duties, and other business disputes. He
co-authors the Massachusetts Non-Compete Law Blog and
frequently contributes to the Security, Privacy and the Law Blog.The
U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts has noted
that employers are increasingly using the federal Computer Fraud
and Abuse Act (CFAA) "to sue former employees and their new
companies who seek a competitive edge through wrongful use of
information from the former employer's computer
But in April, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit made
such employer lawsuits more difficult in that circuit by issuing
its en banc decision in United States v. Nosal.2 In
Nosal, the Ninth Circuit determined that an employee does not
"exceed[] authorized access"3 to information in a
computer under the CFAA when he or she violates an employer's
computer use restrictions.
In contrast, the First Circuit concluded more than a decade ago in
EF Cultural Travel BV v. Explorica, Inc.4 that
contractual restrictions can serve as the basis for a CFAA
violation. This circuit split affects the ability of employers to
maintain lawsuits under the CFAA against former employees who were
authorized to access their employer's confidential information but
took that information to competitors. It also tees up the CFAA for
review by the Supreme Court.
The CFAA provides for both criminal and civil liability (if
certain conditions are met)5 when a person commits
various acts involving a computer and "exceeds authorized access"
or acts "without authorization" in the process.6 The
provision under review in both Nosal and Explorica was 18 U.S.C. §
1030(a)(4), which imposes liability on someone who "knowingly and
with the intent to defraud, accesses a protected computer without
authorization, or exceeds authorized access, and by means of such
conduct furthers the intended fraud and obtains anything of
The CFAA defines "exceeds authorized access" as "to access a
computer with authorization and to use such access to obtain or
alter information in the computer that the accesser is not entitled
so to obtain or alter."7 "Without authorization" is not
defined. Both the Ninth Circuit and the First Circuit focused their
respective analyses on whether employees "exceed[ed] authorized
access" when they were permitted by their employers to access
certain information on a computer, but then used that information
for the benefit of competitors. But because "without authorization"
is not defined, judicial interpretations of "exceeds authorized
access" necessarily affect the meaning of "without authorization"
as well.8
In Nosal, the defendant Nosal worked for an executive search
firm and convinced several employees shortly before he left to
start a competing business with him. He asked the employees to use
their log-in credentials to download confidential information from
the firm's computers and to send the information to him. The
employees were permitted to access the information by their
employer, but were forbidden from disclosing it. Nosal was indicted
for aiding and abetting the employees in "exceed[ing] their
authorized access" in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1030(a)(4). The
charge was dismissed by the district court, and the government
The Nosal court, sitting en banc, affirmed, reasoning that
"exceeds authorized access" should only be applied to a person
"who's authorized to access only certain data or files but accesses
unauthorized data or files--what is colloquially known as
'hacking.'"9 The statutory definition of the phrase
supported this interpretation because "entitled" should be read as
a synonym for "authorized" in the text and a broader interpretation
"would transform the CFAA from an anti-hacking statute into an
expansive misappropriation statute," which the court would not
presume Congress intended absent clearer language. A broader
construction "would expand its scope far beyond computer hacking to
criminalize any unauthorized use of information obtained from a
What is more, because § 1030(a)(2)(C) punishes a person who merely
"exceeds authorized access" and "obtains information from any
protected computer" without intent to defraud, a broader
interpretation "makes every violation of a private computer use
policy a federal crime." The court construed the statute narrowly
"so that Congress will not unintentionally turn ordinary citizens
into criminals" and concluded that "'exceeds authorized access' in
the CFAA is limited to violations of restrictions on access to
information, and not restrictions on its use." Because Nosal's
coworkers had permission to access the information, Nosal was off
the hook.
The dissent, citing the Explorica decision among others, noted
that none of the other circuits to consider the meaning of "exceeds
authorized access" read the statute the same way.
The First Circuit in Explorica reviewed the district court's
issuance of a preliminary injunction against defendant Explorica
and several of its employees pursuant to § 1030(a)(4) of the CFAA.
In Explorica, an employee of Explorica and a former employee of the
plaintiff, EF Cultural Travel BV (EF), revealed EF proprietary
information to Zefer, a company employed by defendant Explorica, an
EF competitor, in violation of his confidentiality agreement with
EF. Zefer then used that information to create a computer program
that "scraped" EF's public website of pricing information, thus
allowing Explorica to undercut EF's prices.
The court ruled that the district court's decision was not clearly
erroneous because "whatever authorization Explorica had to navigate
around EF's site (even in a competitive vein)," if EF's allegations
were proven, EF likely would prove that Explorica "exceeded that
authorization by providing proprietary information and know-how to
Zefer to create the scraper."10
In fact, "[p]ractically speaking, … if proven, Explorica's
wholesale use of EF's travel codes to facilitate gathering EF's
prices from its website reeks of use-and, indeed, abuse-of
proprietary information that goes beyond any authorized use of EF's
website."11 Although decided in a different factual and
procedural context than Nosal, as one judge in the District of
Massachusetts noted, the First Circuit in Explorica "advocated a
broader reading" of the CFAA than the Ninth
The Nosal decision's statement that a CFAA violation is limited
to violations of restrictions on access to information, not use,
when read with Explorica's competing conclusion that a CFAA
violation may be based on the abuse of proprietary information,
crystallizes the CFAA circuit split for Supreme Court review.
Violations of an employer's contractual and computer use policies
cannot be used to show a CFAA violation in the Ninth Circuit, but
they can in the First Circuit.
Assuming the government seeks certiorari, a decision by the
Supreme Court not to review the Nosal case will have an immediate
impact on employer decisions on where to file CFAA claims against
former employees who may have taken confidential information. In
fact, the Nosal decision adds yet another hurdle for employers
filing lawsuits in California (part of the Ninth Circuit) in
addition to the unenforceability of non-competition agreements as a
matter of policy in that state.
The circuit split is even more important because of the location
of important industries: Silicon Valley and Massachusetts (part of
the First Circuit) are high-tech hubs where many companies rely on
highly sensitive information to stay ahead of the competition. If
the Supreme Court chooses not to review Nosal, more employers will
file CFAA cases outside of the Ninth Circuit.

Hit-run victim believed to be a teenage girl
Sheriff's deputies are investigating an apparent fatal hit-and-run in northwest Harris County.
One person, believed to be a teenage girl, was killed shortly before 7 p.m. in the 5500 block of Barker Cypress, authorities said.
She was pronounced dead at the scene.
According to investigators, the victim ran into traffic and was struck by a passing car that did not stop and offer help.
Sheriff's deputies said other motorists also may have hit the victim. None stop to render assistance, authorities said.
Deputies said it was raining heavily at the time. There are no street lamps in the area.
The investigation is continuing, deputies said.

Photographer's Note
Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava was selected by the Organizing Committee of Olympic Games of Athens 2004 and the Ministry of Culture of Greece, in the midst of a great controversy, to redesign the Olympic Sports Complex (OAKA) with other important works. The objective was reflected in the design of both the identity and history of the modern Olympic Games as the Greek capital, aided by the technological and aesthetic principles. The architect explained that the project was his dream, to do something special and different from the headquarters buildings of the cities of the Games in the past, because Athens is the site of the beginning of the modern Olympic Games (1896) and Greece is the site where they were born and held in antiquity. The work bears the unmistakable imprint of its architect, as can be seen in the bridges, especially the use of the famous "combs" made with bows and tensors. Santiago Calatrava's project was conceived as a living work connected between each of the parties that compose it. Organic architecture is where the skeleton assumes great importance in the design and works as aesthetic elements and containers of life. By: Wikipedia

Ciao Gosia
con un colpo di genio hai creato una composizione avvincente nella quale il bianco e l'azzurro si contendono lo spazio tra curve e altre forme geometriche in grande quantità.
Alla bellezza della composizione si unisce la nitidezza con la quale le forme emergono dallo schermo precise e nette a seguito dell'accuratezza della ripresa.
Brava, come sempre.
Ciao e buon fine settimana

Hello Gosia,
what an interesting composition using a strong, curving perspective and mesmerizing reflections. Your work here is really original, difficult to envision for the people who walk under this structure or see it through a train window. The symmetry, the sharpness and the colours are wonderful. The structure and the environment look so light. I also like the glimpse of the city and Mt Hymettus in the background. You managed the light very effectively as always. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great weekend,

This is a wonderful design of a building, I do recognize his mark, but as you say, I know him more for the bridges that for buildings. I really love that you have taken this under such vivid blue skies, and doubled up the wonder of it by having this excellent reflection. A beautiful vision, and an excellent note, thanks as always
Best wishes

Hello Gosia,
I have seen this before in photographs but none better than this very well composed shot, which uses the curve of the building as a guide and the repeating, reflected arches of the structure as a curve within the curve. It is wonderfully eye-catching and quite impossible to ignore.
Excellent light control.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Gosia,
What a wonderful composition, using the reflective waters to double the viewing pleasure! :) I think this may be the first time I've actually seen the Agora displayed in such a manner, the exterior view is just as intriguing and alluring as it's interior. The big sweeping curve is immediately recognized, but for me it's the repeating shapes that really catch my attention...looks like a giant Slinky toy. :) Bright, sharp and detailed. Very nicely done! Enjoy the new week ahead. All the best.

Hi Gosia
Wonderful composition with amazing detail to this brilliant architectural shot, a fab place and what an absolute stunner - everyone's dream and its so absorbing view how the curvy repeated patterns smoothly recede and filling the backdrop. There's a good scale proportion too, colours are vivid and mouth watering contrast to blue sky, and the stunning water reflection clinches the shot superbly, Awesome luminous capture, Congrats.
Best regards

Hi Gosia
I think it was really important that you added in the trees and poles on the left, it gives a size/scale perspective that otherwise wouldn't be there.
love the curve, the reflections, the blues and whites.
nice shot my many reasons.
I'll be here in late May :)
