Read the fine print--Thrifty is not so Thrifty
Pros: The car was clean and mechanically sound.
Cons: Shame on me for not reading the fine print. I failed to notice that Thrifty charges extra for any driver, including your spouse. Adding my wife to the rental almost doubled the cost before taxes. In the future I will use Budget or Enterprise, which end up being considerably better values even if their initial charges are a bit more.

Thirfty can suck it.
Cons: I don't like having extra fees imposed on me that aren't disclosed before hand. I was very clear on my reservation and I read through all the terms and conditions, and NO WHERE was there any language about an extra fee for dropping the car off at a different location... No. Where.

Shifty Car Rental-
Pros: Thinking I was in a Seinfeld episode. "You know how to take a reservation, you just don't know how to keep a reservation."
Cons: Having to show self restraint when I wanted to drax dem sklounixt.
4.8 Okay
22 Aug 2017
Pros: Check out was easy.
Cons: When I approached the counter, the attendant was on her cell phone and continued to talk while assisting me. The car I ordered was too small so I upgraded to a midsize SUV. The price was a ripoff although I didn't have a choice. To upgrade from a full size car to a midsize SUV the difference in price, for one day of use, was over $50.00....that is BS.

Little information
Pros: They were fast.
Cons: Did not tell me anything about the EZpass which, it turned out, is required in the Boston area because they have gotten rid of toll booths. Tank was not full but I did not have a chance to challenge it. Told me that it was to be returned to Boston airport when in reality it needed to get downtown.

Kudos to Manager Bill Carter and his team!
Pros: Manager Bill Carter and his team quickly jumped into action when I arrived to the car rental return frantic because I was going to be late for my flight. A tragic accident on I 95 caused an hour long back up and I was sure I was going to be spending the night in the airport. The manager himself gave me a ride to the airport. I can't imagine this happening at the rental car company I have previously used. I will always use Thrifty at the Philadelphia international airport!

Difficult Drop Off for Thrifty at Philly Airport
Cons: Rental Contract says return location is the Philly Int'l airport BUT this is not true. Had to google it and then 2 sites came up. Island Ave site is wrong. Holstein Ave site is correct. Reserved online and thought I had a midsize. Showed up and they had a compact for me. I hate that.

Started of rough...ended wonderfully
Pros: The EZ Pass i prepaid for wasn't working for tolls and the front desk was so understanding about my frustrations and gave me a voucher of $30 towards my next rental to make up for the toll i had to pay.
Cons: Even though it is advertised as being located at airport it is not actually located at the airport near the other rental companies. Its about 1.5 miles away from the airport but they do offer shuttle service ro and fro

Wait for car
Cons: We waited more than an hour to get the car. Waited outside more than 30 minutes after they told us they were pulling up the vehicle. Appeared that they did not have enough cars and were waiting for some to be returned. Car smelled when we picked it up and the service rep said they had to clean up all the chips and popcorn left. Doubt I will rent from them again.

27 Mar 2017
Less than impressed.
Pros: Price was affordable given that I needed to return to a different airport.
Cons: Car was compact/economy... my reservation showed a small SUV... I was given a Nissan Versa Note while the website depicted a Nissan Rogue. Long line with employees standing around talking about lunch. Told me that only two computers were working... line increased, all of a sudden a new computer was available.

Philadelphia visit.
Pros: Car was clean and practically brand new. It got great gas mileage. My only problem came when I had a hard time finding their location to return the car. The road that they are on did not have a road sign, and you cannot see their sign from the main road. I drove around in circles for more than a half hour to get accurate directions. That service was very helpful. I will be more observant of my surroundings when I pick the cae up next time.
Cons: See above.

23 Mar 2017
Quick Work Trip
Pros: Car was clean and met expectations. Staff at the front desk were helpful with working out any issues.
Cons: The PHL location is not with the other rental cars, it is off the airport grounds. The shuttle was quick, but still a bit of a hassle. Make sure to check your receipt! They had the wrong daily price when I first picked up the car (which they easily corrected) and then at return there was a $3 fee for what appeared to be mileage even though I had unlimited mileage and they said they didn't charge for that. I was directed inside and talked with the staff and they immediately took the charge off and said they weren't sure what it was for...
3.2 Mediocre
22 Mar 2017
Worst rental service I ever received in the past 3
Pros: Not much to be happy with the service other than I guess a speedy return process with no added extras added on the bill.
Cons: Originally when I arrived in Philly there was no shuttle service which is necessary as they are offsite. Luckily a friendly Budget Rent-a-car shuttle driver that passed by 3 times saw me still waiting about a hour decided to help me out and get me to the location. Then the location was locked up by that time I got there after waiting over an hour mind you. I was standing in the proper #2 Rental Shuttle area as I had seen many other rental company shuttles stop there and I called the 800 number several times to confirm. The manager was about to leave when he happened to notice me at the front doors and got me the car. He said I must have been in the wrong area and that "he never gets out of there on time." Not the best thing to hear when you are traveling on business and still have another hour drive ahead. I used the rental car sparingly as well despite a strong lemon smell in the car masking what seemed to be vomit. I have been traveling for work all over the US for the past 3-4 years and this is the worst service I received since that time.

Cons: The insurance plan is too expensive! And they wouldn't take it off for me after an hour when I wanted to cancel the insurance and just use my own car insurance.

30 Nov 2016
Very out of the way
Pros: The staff was informative and helpful -- they guided me to the nearest gas station so I could fill up before officially dropping off the car.
Cons: The location was pretty isolated, and it was unclear who was actually an employee in the parking lot.
8.0 Excellent
3 May 2016
Cons: Its a few miles from the airport, so there's a bit of a shuttle delay in both pickup and drop off. Worth it if you're getting a better price. Their refueling fee is 10 dollars per gallon which is above and beyond any other rental agency. (For example, Alamo charges around 3 dollars a gallon, which is about a dollar surcharge of the current market rate.)
3.6 Mediocre
25 Mar 2016
Never again
Pros: Price, however they were comparable to a couple of other companies. The associate I dealt with was also nice to deal with.
Cons: The Thrifty rental site was a few miles off-field from the airport, requiring getting on and off of I-95 to get to it. That distance, coupled with the shuttle's poor frequency (they seem to run every 15 minutes) had me waiting both for pickup and at their location and curbside for long periods of time. Before I was initially picked up for rental, I was waiting curbside while every other rental company had several shuttles running before I'd ever seen even one Thrifty shuttle come by. They charged my credit card a hold of $350 that took several days to clear after I'd returned the car. I have excellent credit and a clean driving record but I've never seen any other rental car company hold funds on a credit card. It seemed to be standard practice for them as I noticed other customers enduring the same. Considering how far off-site the location is, you have the option to either deal with it or waste significantly more of your time waiting for a ride back to the airport and choosing another company.
4.0 Okay

Rental bus
Pros: Waited 30 minutes at philly airport Sunday night for Thrifty bus to pick me up at Budget. It never came. I ended up hopping on a competitor's bus and rented from Enterprise.

29 Dec 2015
Good not great
Pros: Slow check in with only 1 person working the desk. At least 3 other counter staff/management walking around. Car was fine. Return was fast. The driver returning us to the airport drove like a maniac.
7.2 Good
30 Nov 2015
November 2015 rental
Pros: It's one of the cheapest companies to rent a car from in the city. They location is not near the airport, but the confirmation email i received gave me the address so I could Google where the company was before. They do have a shuttle to and from the airport, and my car was clean and had a full tank of gas. I rented an economy car and waived the insurance so the price wasn't too bad.
Cons: They charged me $30 extra than what I was quoted online. The shuttle took a bit too of time to pick me up at the airport, but it was a busy evening so that's understandable.

Mark Staniforth reflects on how a golden haul of medals from Britain's Olympians helped mask some of the problems associated with the Games in Brazil.
When Adam Peaty surged to breaststroke gold on the second full day of the Rio 2016 Olympics, even the most optimistic of red, white and blue-waving Britons would have struggled to countenance the cavalcade that was to come.
Tentative hopes of going some way to matching the epic haul from London turned to vibrant reality as Great Britain became the first nation in Olympic history to exceed its medals tally immediately following a Games it has hosted.
The swathe of home-grown success stories added gloss to a Games badly in need of more than a lick of paint, a stunning home city badly hampered by political unrest behind the scenes and more up-front issues of IOC largesse.
When sport took centre-stage it was not just Peaty, the first British men's swimming gold medallist in more than a quarter of a century, who set about ripping up the record books.
Next to invincible in the Velodrome, Jason Kenny, Laura Trott and Sir Bradley Wiggins – who yesterday announced his retirement – all breached historic marks, while Mo Farah's lung-bursting double-double of 5,000 and 10,000 metres titles marked him out as one of the greatest British track and field athletes of all time.
Max Whitlock ended the wait for Britain's first Olympic gymnastics gold medal by winning the men's floor event – then added the pommel title for good measure less than two hours later.
His exploits headlined an extraordinary display from the GB gymnastics team, which gathered seven medals in total, including inspiring bronzes from young pair Nile Wilson of Leeds and Amy Tinkler.
Taekwondo provided another success story, as Jade Jones successfully defended her London Olympic title while team-mate Lutalo Muhammad was only denied the chance to join her on top of the podium by a last-second head-kick from Ivory Coast opponent Cheick Salle Cisse.
Yorkshire's own Nicola Adams swept through a boxing competition blighted by scoring controversies as she joined Jones as a double Olympic champion, winning her three fights without breaking sweat and betraying a rare hint of emotion as she reflected on an Olympic achievement which could be her last.
Bustling bronze medallist Josh Buatsi apart, there was an air of disappointment over the rest of the British boxing performances, encapsulated in the way super-heavyweight Joe Joyce missed out on gold via a highly debateable points loss.
Netminder Maddie Hinch pulled off a string of remarkable saves to steer Great Britain's women's hockey team to gold after a penalty shoot-out win over the Netherlands, evoking memories of Britain's last hockey success when Sean Kerly's men's side triumphed in Seoul in 1988.
All-conquering pair Andy Murray and Leeds' Alistair Brownlee repeated their London victories in tennis and triathlon respectively, and Justin Rose eased the controversy over golf's inclusion in a Games for the first time with a popular victory in the men's event. Amongst the avalanche of other successes was a gold for 58-year-old show-jumper Nick Skelton in his seventh Games, while Britain was walking on water with diving gold for the Yorkshire pair of Jack Laugher and Chris Mears, a surprise canoe triumph for Joe Clarke, and multiple rowing and sailing gold medals.
Britons apart, it was another victorious Games for Usain Bolt and a glorious showcase for beach volleyball, whose competition was played out in front of the packed stands of a temporary arena propped on the Copacabana sand.
Beneath the statue of Christ the Redeemer and buoyed by celebratory caipirinha cocktails, it was easy to ignore the evident issues of financial impropriety, doping allegations and general gigantism that the Rio Olympics threw up. For three weeks of summer, at least, the golden glow was all that counted.

Solar Frontier cell hits record 20.9%
Japanese thin-film maker Solar Frontier has hit a 20.9% conversion efficiency with a factory-ready copper, indium, selenium (CIS) cell, beating its own record of 19.7%.
The figure, achieved on a 0.5sq cm cell during joint research with national R&D body Nedo, was independently verified by Germany's Fraunhofer Institute.
"Solar Frontier's new 20.9% efficiency record resulted from a CIS cell cut from a 30cm x 30cm substrate produced using a sputtering-selenisation formation method - the same method we use in our factories," says Solar Frontier chief technology officer Satoru Kuriyagawa.
"The significance is two-fold: it ensures we can transfer our latest achievement into mass production faster; and it proves the long-term conversion efficiency potential of [our] proprietary CIS technology."
The hybrid high-temperature sputtering-selenisation process developed by Solar Frontier to manufacture its thin-film promises to overtake conventional "co-evaporation", which is more expensive and has a best-ever efficiency of 20.3%.
Kuriyagwa recently told Recharge he was "confident" next-generation CIS technology would reach a game-changing 29.7% efficiency, eclipsing the accepted 25% ceiling on thin-film efficiency.
Solar Frontier's latest efficiency record was set at the Atsugi Research Centre in Kanagawa.

Folks, yet another reason to eat at Bamboo on Second: they've expanded their sushi menu to include nigiri and sashimi. We just happened to eat there tonite, the first night they offered it. We ordered the salmon, yellowtail, and tuna:
All three were outstanding. Melt-in-your-mouth, slightly citrusy from the lemon keeping it company, like butter.
We also found out they're open on Valentine's Day-that's where Mr Foodie and I will be, enjoying some nigiri!

So it's been about 3 weeks since we left our sticks and bricks and headed down to our first destination, my parents beautiful 26 acres just outside of Eugene, OR. We're in a town called Westfir an even tinier town than Oakridge, which actually has a couple of restaurants. Going into town is an event these days and it's kind of nice to have the excuse to be a bit less connected to the bustling world. I do have a new appreciation for the concept of going into town for provisions.
We've been working almost more then when we were at home and everything feels a bit more critical when it's crammed into an RV. Thankfully, because of the way my parents place is set up, we can still use "indoor plumbing" while we renovate the RV bathroom. Tt's nice to be able to take hot showers and use modern plumbing for the time being….baby steps.
The first 2 1/2 weeks we were parked inside of my Dad's massive workshop. While this is awesome for keeping the elements at bay, horrible for sanity thanks to the florescent lighting. Dave started to sense my light deprivation and would open the huge rolling door so the cats and I could get some sunlight in the morning. The problem was, when I would hear him pull the chain to close the door I was beginning to feel like a prisoner who's hour of daily sunlight was over. So last week we moved the rig outside! That has made a huge difference in my attitude and because I can see the outside all around the RV it feels like the RV is bigger on the inside.
So onto nesting…
From the start of this endeavor I've wanted to make sure the inside of the RV felt homey. I basically miniaturized the feel of our old house have tried to cram them into the RV. The RV was originally in horrible 90's shades of peach and beige….bleh! The first thing I did was take down the box valences and replaced the curtains. I then set on repainting the kitchen/hall/dinette and work space. It is still a work in progress but it's feeling more like home everyday.
Here are some pics with before and afters…
There is still tons more work to do on the RV. You will note that there are no pics of the bathroom, that is getting a total overhaul in the near future. We are going to have a real porcelain toilet and everything! We are really enjoying spending some true quality time with my parents. We are thankful to have this time with them.
Dave and my Dad worked on a YouTube video last week that features a song my Dad wrote and played guitar on with images he loves from his soaring career. Check it out!

All Kentucky Moves to New Orleans
The Final Four doesn't tip off for another day, but New Orleans has already been fully taken over by four fan bases' worth of hoopsheads. Rachel Bachman and Ben Cohen are embedded just outside the Superdome. They offer their thoughts on what to expect on the court, whom they expect to see off it and what suits they expect certain clotheshound coaches to wear:
BACHMAN: So Ben, I know you're happy that fellow Dukie Johnny Dawkins is on our shuttle bus from the New Orleans airport. I give his Stanford team credit for winning the NIT and salvaging a modicum of respect for the PAC-12.
But on to bigger things: What's going to happen tomorrow? Does Louisville win the biggest game in state-of-Kentucky history and bragging rights in the best coaching grudge match going? More importantly, do the Cardinals go with the Creamsicle look: players in those orange-y unis and Pitino in the all-white suit?

Interview with Devereux Chatillon
For podcast release Monday, July 1, 2013
KENNEALLY: When Internet startups are sued for copyright infringement, the complaints focus on piracy and services that make copyrighted books, music, and videos available for free. Not so in Capitol Records v. ReDigi, Incorporated. The defendant, ReDigi, offered a service that allowed consumers to resell unwanted digital files.
Welcome to Copyright Clearance Center's podcast series. I'm Christopher Kenneally for Beyond the Book.
In March a Federal Court judge in New York ruled in Capitol's favor and against ReDigi, even while news appeared that online retail giant Amazon has received a patent for a digital resale marketplace, with Apple filing a similar application. Clearly there is growing interest in the question of digital resale.
But here's the catch: When it comes to digital, a first sale may not even be a sale. Joining me from her New York City office to tell us why is Devereux Chatillon. Dev, welcome to Beyond the Book.
CHATILLON: Thank you, Chris, delighted to be here.
KENNEALLY: Well, it's nice to have you join us. Indeed, it's the second time for you. We've had you on the program before from a live program at the Publishing Business Conference and Expo. We'll tell people briefly about your background. Devereux Chatillon is a transactional and IP attorney. During her career, she's worked in all facets of the media and entertainment industry, most recently as an executive with Callaway Digital Arts, a Kleiner Perkins-backed startup, making best-selling award-winning apps directed at children. Dev has practiced extensively in copyright, beginning with serving as part of the representation in the U.S. Supreme Court for The Nation in the landmark Harper and Row case, and continuing with ABC, the New Yorker, Miramax and Scholastic. Dev Chatillon currently heads a solo legal practice focusing on the intersection of content and technology.
And Dev, while you and I may qualify as old hands when it comes to copyright, we need to help set the stage for our audience, who may not be as familiar. And I think the place to start is with Section 109 and how that particular aspect of copyright law applies to the resale of physical goods and that'll give us an idea of what we're facing when speaking about digital resale or resale of digital goods. So tell us about that. Section 109, what's it say?
CHATILLON: Thank you, Chris, and thank you for the very nice introduction. Section 109 became part of copyright law in 1978, when Congress did a new – I'm using air quotes – made the new copyright law. And what it says is something I think most people are familiar with, with experience, which is that if I buy a physical good that embodies copyrighted content – an example, I go to Barnes & Nobles (sic) and buy a copy of Dan Brown's Inferno, or current best-seller put out by Random House. I own the copy of the book I bought. Barnes & Noble pays Random House, Random House pays Dan Brown for that first sale. But after that, I'm free to dispose of that physical copy in any lawful way I care to. I can give it to my daughter, I can sell it to my next door neighbor, I can put it up on e-Bay and resell it, and there's no further copyright toll, if you will, there's no further fees that go to the copyright owners or distributors for that because they get their cut – the publisher, in this case, Random House, and the author, in this case Dan Brown – from that first sale, which is why it's called the first sale doctrine. Then after that, I'm free to use that physical copy in almost any way. I can't reproduce it, so I can't then go into the business of selling Dan Brown's Inferno to other people. But I can dispose of that particular physical copy in any way I want, and that's what's called the first sale doctrine.
KENNEALLY: Right, and we make a point here at Copyright Clearance Center to emphasize, as you did, that the transfer is of the physical object itself, whether it be a book, in this case, of your example, or a CD or anything like that. But it is not the transfer of the copyright.
CHATILLON: Exactly, exactly.
KENNEALLY: Now, when it comes to digital goods, if we're going to get into the resale, we have to talk about the sale of a digital good. But it's important to point out that for most of the transactions when we actually acquire something on iTunes or download a book on Kindle, that's not precisely a sale. If it's not, what is it exactly?
CHATILLON: What it is is often what's called a license, which is an agreement between the end user, in this case the consumer, and the publisher/distributor, and that can vary depending on how and where you buy it, that governs the terms of that person's ability to use a digital file. So instead of selling them the physical copy, because in this case we don't really have one, what it says is, you can use and read this on your device, or on your computer, or on all of those, in many cases, but you can only use it for personal use. You can't resell it, you can't transfer it to another person or child, and that will be part of all those obscure things that we all click through without reading. And I am as guilty of this as anyone else. When iTunes has a new, for example, version of it, they'll say, you have to agree to the iTunes agreement. Buried in that 20-page agreement is the license for all the content that's on iTunes.
KENNEALLY: Right, and we're familiar, at least we all became familiar with those particular terms when we were acquiring software back in the day, and now because so much of what we do is in the digital realm, these kinds of licenses apply, as you say, to iTune music and books on Kindle, and so forth.
CHATILLON: Let me just interrupt you there, Chris, excuse me for a second, to say that in the software realm, one of the things – and this is the only place where we have any law on this, there is law – it's somewhat idiosyncratic dependent on the facts and it varies a little bit by circuit, so I'm not going to get too much into the depth – about what is a sale and what is a license. And the fact that a distributor or a publisher may call something a license may not be the determinative thing. The courts will look to other indicia to say whether it's actually been a sale of something, or a license. But in most cases if there is some degree of control kept by the distributor or publisher, the courts will honor that entity's determination of what they've done is enter into a license with the end user, and not a sale.
KENNEALLY: Well, in fact, it's interesting, and we don't want to go too far off on this tangent, but that notion of control and limitations is what has an impact in the library market, for example, when it comes to e-books. Libraries are accustomed to acquiring a book and being able to do what they want with that particular physical copy of the book. Now with e-books, they are licenses and those licenses often do restrict what kind of lending can be done and for how long, and so forth.
CHATILLON: Right, but it's also in that case – and we'll come to this, we can jump ahead and then come back and go back again. The publishers are faced with the fact that a digital copy doesn't wear out. So in the old days, even with library versions of books and certainly Scholastic, one of the places I worked, had a very nice small market in making library versions – reinforced bindings especially for kids, able to withstand the wear and tear of multiple users of a particular volume. Even with that, books wear out, so I can sell you a book for $25 and you'll be able to lend it out, say, 100 times – I'm making up the numbers here – and then you'll have to buy another book if that book is still in demand by your community.
In a digital world, it never wears out. The technology on which it's based may shift, that may be a natural limit. We haven't been doing this long enough to know that yet. But, in fact, you can lend that copy out a million times, maybe two million times, 10 million times, which is not possible. So the question is, as you go from the physical world to the digital world, how do we not destroy our communities and markets by using the way we used to do things and being too rigidly bound to them.
KENNEALLY: Right. Well, we are talking on Beyond the Book today with Devereux Chatillon, an IP attorney, well experienced in copyright. I guess, Dev, the real question for us at the moment is, again, back to the notion of a sale. Let's assume for the moment that a sale has happened. I guess the question that follows is whether it's possible to resell a digital book under copyright law, because copyright law offers the rights-holder certain kinds of exclusive rights, and you can't resell something if you don't have the rights lined up, if you will. So sort that out for us. What are the issues there?
CHATILLON: There are a couple of different issues there, and to take them in order – and feel free, Chris, to interrupt if I get too obscure or it will help clarify. The first sale doctrine that we talked about before, the ability I have with certainly a physical copy, to dispose of that physical copy in any way I wish, including resale of it to someone else. It's a specific exception in the statute to one is exclusive rights that goes to the copyright holder, which is the right to distribute.
So one of the questions is, in the digital world, does that still work? Can I still do that? And the answer from the one really clear decision we have, which is the ReDigi court in the Southern District that you referenced was, no. The first sale doctrine doesn't apply because it's not the same physical copy. How the court figured that out is it went through, with some precision, exactly what happens when I get a digital copy. I think it will help if I describe a little bit what ReDigi service did –
KENNEALLY: Please.
CHATILLON: – to explain this. What ReDigi did is say – I'm going to use me as an example – I, Dev Chatillon, have a few thousand songs that I've downloaded from iTunes. And they've restricted themselves to iTunes and other places where they could trace the acquisition, originally, of the digital copy had been done lawfully. So if I upload my various Joni Mitchell disks to my computer, that wouldn't count for ReDigi purposes because they wanted to make sure they had a trail they could follow lawfully. So limited to iTunes accounts, I have a certain number of songs, I've decided really don't like Bob Dylan anymore because I've had a huge lapse of taste. So I want to resell all of my Bob Dylan tunes.
What the ReDigi service would do, and I'm sure this is slightly oversimplified, according to the court, is it would come in, it would examine – I would sign up for it, I would download software, it would look at my computer, it would look at my Bob Dylan songs, it would make sure that those songs had, in fact, been lawfully acquired by iTunes. It would upload those songs to the ReDigi server, make them available for resale, and disconnect me from my copies so that I would no longer have access to those. And they would be offered anywhere from 29¢ to 79¢ between the iTunes 99¢ per song, for resale – and I'm using air quotes around resale – to another digital user.
What the court said is, OK, let's look at that. What's happening when I download from iTunes is I'm downloading a code that gets encapsulated in parts of the hard drive of my computer or my iPod or my iPad or my iPhone or my android, or whatever – my device. When it goes back up to ReDigi, that code gets copied, and I'll come back to that – to the ReDigi servers, and it occupies a different physical on the ReDigi servers. So what the court said is, that's not a first sale. That's not a transfer of the physical copy because it is encapsulated in the copyrighted content in a different physical space, and that's not covered by the current statute. And I think quite correctly the court concluded that.
KENNEALLY: What's fascinating about that is it just points to what we all know but don't think about very much which is that the Internet is simply a giant copying machine, and every time I send you an e-mail, you don't get the e-mail, you get a copy of the e-mail that I originally wrote.
CHATILLON: Which could lead us into NSA territory, so we'll stay away from that.
KENNEALLY: (laughter) OK, right.
CHATILLON: One of the things the court said that makes it, I think, quite clear is it distinguished between what ReDigi was doing, where that copy goes from iTunes to my computer up to the ReDigi servers and then down to the ultimate resale consumer, the person who bought it, and says that's a distinction. So if I give my daughter my laptop, under the first sale doctrine what's on here – Microsoft may not always agree with this, but what's on here, at least in theory, no one gets paid for again. She gets the computer with the copyrighted content I may have on it. That doesn't always work because of digital rights management software and other things. But that is more analogous, the court said, to the physical first sale doctrine that we're used to than this ReDigi service where things got copied back and forth.
KENNEALLY: And so you mentioned that there are two particular exclusive rights of the copyright holder that potentially ReDigi, or at least in this case, the court found ReDigi had violated. So that first was the distribution right, and the other?
CHATILLON: Is the reproduction right. One of the – and this is involved in the physical resale doctrine and first sale doctrine as well, is one of the rights reserved to the copyright owner or licensor, in the case of a publisher, is – licensee, sorry – is the right to reproduce. So the reason Random House can put millions of copies of Dan Brown's Inferno out to bookstores is they have the rights from Dan Brown to reproduce that book in physical form. And that's an exclusive right of a copyright holder. It's not granted when they sell a copy, which is why, if I buy a physical copy, a print copy of Dan Brown's inferno, I can't then turn around and make a ton of copies and sell them to other people because I would violate both the distribution right, but also the reproduction right held by the copyright holder. Those are embodied in Section 106 of the copyright act.
The first sale doctrine is an exception to the distribution right. It is not an exception – this explicit on the face of the statute –to the reproduction right. So you have to analyze that separately in all of these cases. The court said it clearly – because of, again, all the copying we've just described – violates the reproductive rights of the copyright holder.
KENNEALLY: Well, this is all pretty juicy stuff for copyright dweebs, but clearly with the agitation in the marketplace that ReDigi has surfaced and with the news that Amazon has a patent on a potential digital resale marketplace, there's consumer interest in this and I think consumers may feel a bit as if all of this is very restrictive. They've paid for something and they feel like they should be able to do what they want with it. And even ReDigi, if I understand correctly, acknowledges that really what they're driving towards is a reform of the law and legislation to sort this out. And I think the judge said as much, that it was to be left to Congress to make that move.
Could Congress change copyright law in such a way that would allow for digital resale? What would that look like?
CHATILLON: Absolutely, and Congress should rewrite the law if, in fact, we're going to proceed with these kind of marketplaces. Again, going back to the physical world, the deal there was that the copyright holders in the example we've been using, Dan Brown's Inferno, the publisher and Dan Brown, the author, were compensated on the first sale. But the resale market in the physical world is necessarily limited by physics, by the physics of books – used books, used CDs,, used VHS tapes, used prints. If I want to get a book, for example, using that, I may want to get a new book. I may want to make sure I can get a copy of the book I want, and in the used marketplace, the inventory fluctuates much more than it does in the new book marketplace, where the publishers make darn well sure – or they try to – that copies are always available at the outlets where the public expects to find them.
And in addition to that, used copies of books, in particular, get used. They get soiled, the covers get torn, people write in them, and there are times when that's fine and that's what I want, or that's what a consumer wants, and there are other times when that's not. So there are limits on it, and eventually it wears out. There are very few books still around, and we consider most of them rare books, that have lasted 100, 200, several hundred years, going back to the Gutenberg bible, which are highly prized and priceless and relics of the original printing presses.
So all of that limits what a used physical goods marketplace can do to the compensation being paid to the copyright holders to create this in the first place. If we're going to change that in the digital world, where you can make an infinite number of copies from a digital file, and each copy will be as good as the original. There is no deterioration in that copy. It may well be that platforms may change that may, at some point, provide a sort of natural end to the viability of particular digital copies. We may find that, we don't know that yet. But at least in theory, I can resell a digital copy of a song or of a book or of a movie an infinite number of times, and each one will be as good, indistinguishable from the new copy – and I'm using air quotes here – put out by the studio, the record label, the musician, the author, or the publisher.
So if we're going to change that, we need to make sure that everyone in that chain is getting the compensation they need to create a viable marketplace so that artists will create art, authors will create literature and stories, studios will create movies for consumers, and television shows for consumers to enjoy. Because if you don't do that, what you end up is stifling it at one end. People can't write books and pay their bills. People can't make music and raise their kids. And if we do that, which is a core purpose of the copyright law, that's what it's supposed to do is provide adequate compensation to the creators. If we do that without thinking about it, which is what Congress is at least supposed to do, we're going to have a problem.
KENNEALLY: Indeed, and I guess we'll have to wait for Congress to do that legislative work, but I wonder whether Amazon, now that it has this patent, could try to create an e-book market itself, without changes in the law. If they went to rights holders to get their OK, that might work.
CHATILLON: Yes, they could. And remember, Amazon has its own publishing arm, and also allows self-publishing. But I think at least a component of that would have to be some kind of royalty or some kind of payment of some kind to the copyright holder. Because without that, again the digital market will end up sort of eating, if you will, the original market, the "new market." And then no one, again, can make any money doing this and they won't do it anymore because people have to eat.
So they can, they absolutely can. They could impose those requirements on people selling e-books through Amazon, and I think when Amazon has – I think I just read – this is from the e-book trial that just took place in New York – that they had something like 60% of the e-book market. If they use that kind of market power to impose it on others without it, then you have private parties rather than societal parties, governmental parties, resolving this, and that's always a concern because it doesn't necessarily take into the different and competing needs of the various components of the marketplace, including not for profit institutions – libraries, art galleries, museums, all sorts of people and entities whose needs need to be taken into account in any resolution of this.
KENNEALLY: Indeed, and when it comes to Amazon, they certainly have experience with used goods and establishing marketplaces for that. After all, I think they were the ones who – if they didn't pioneer it, they certainly perfected the used book marketplace.
CHATILLON: Well, they didn't pioneer it. The Strand Bookstore has been on the corner of 12th and Broadway –
KENNEALLY: That's right. I meant online, of course, yes.
CHATILLON: But what they did was – it was very controversial at the time, this is now a few years ago – when you're a consumer and you're going on Amazon and you're buying a CD or a DVD or a book, they put a used button next to the new button. So in the same seamless transaction, you can buy a used book, for example, rather than a new book. The publishers and Authors Guild and other people, and, I think, some of the musicians were very unhappy with that because of course they get royalties and compensation from a new purchase, and they don't from a used, because of the first sale doctrine. However, we seem to have survived that, at least so far.
KENNEALLY: So far. Dev Chatillon, you've been very good in explaining for us the ins and outs of the digital resale marketplace and the potential digital resale marketplace. Thanks so much for updating us here on Beyond the Book, Dev Chatillon.
CHATILLON: It's my pleasure. Thanks so much, Chris, I hope I can do something like this again.

Analysts expected $2.33 per share and $7.27 billion in revenue, according to FactSet.

Note: This summary of deals is based on the ad I get in Los Angeles, where Ralphs stores double coupons up to $1 (one like coupon per transaction). I don't list all of the deals, only the good ones. If I missed any, please let us all know in the comments. You'll need a Ralphs Rewards card to get most of these deals, so I use the Rewards card price in this post and assume you have your card scanned with each transaction. In addition to the coupons listed, you can also add electronic coupons to your Ralphs Rewards card at these sites: Shortcuts.com, Cellfire.com, Softcoin and Upromise. I find the electronic coupons to be unreliable when it comes to stacking them with paper coupons, so I assume they do not stack in the scenarios below. I don't print every coupon listed, so please verify amounts and quantities listed. If you give Ralphs your email address, they may also send you emails with e-coupons that are exclusive to your card. And if you bring reuseable bags, Ralphs will give you 5 Rewards points for each bag used (though you may need to remind the cashier).
At least some stores in LA County are still doubling multiple like coupons, including my own store. But until this seems to be a permanent state of affairs, I'm going to assume that only one like coupon will double per transaction.
The P&G Mix & Match deal continues this week, so buy 4 participating products and get $4 off. Again, if you play The Drugstore Game, you can usually get better deals on these products than you'll find at Ralphs.

Sometimes it seems that the only way to avoid a sore throat -perezimovyvat in warm countries.Although ... there are sick!In fact, it is not necessary to exaggerate.The main thing - to know his enemy in the face and understand what means to deal with it.Let's deal!
People with a weak innate immunity suffer more.Sometimes even acquired, it is formed throughout life, from birth to old age.As they grow, children are faced with all the new and new infections and generate a protective response to them.Since the immune system of the baby still "under construction", the child usually gets sick much more often by an adult.
Not so long ago, scientists have made a major discovery.Under all the mucous membranes of human cells are innate immunity - macrophages and dendritic cells, on the Toll-like receptors which inhabit the surface."Of Toll" translated from German - "wonderful", "fantastic".That is the name scientists have given them!The magic lies in the fact that these receptors are the first to respond to hostile invasion of viruses and bacteria, and they are mobilizing the entire body to fight infection.
usually do not want to be ill.But really I want to get well!Can you help these invisible brave soldiers standing guard over our health?In recent years, it has become commonplace immunomodulatory drugs.But they are not all the same.There is a means-based synthetic (ie artificial) interferon, others stimulate the activity of Toll receptors and induce the body to make its own.One of these drugs - «Derinat spray» : immunomodulator with antiviral activity and additional reparative (ie reducing, healing) effect.This is a very important feature helps to reinforce the most important barrier of immunity - nasal mucosa, and thus enhance its protective function.
There are a few simple steps for the prevention of sore throat in both children and adults.

text: ClientLook Reviews What our subscribers say about us Read the latest ClientLook reviews. The industry loves ClientLook CRM. Our team of 5 recently switched from REA to Clientlook and love it. I used REA for over 15 years and used the "if it's not broke don't fix it" mentality, but realized we were really working with an antiquated program. We tried to migrate to Apto/Salesforce since it was supported by Colliers, but that process was cumbersome – to say the least. We want a simple, effective, web based CRM and ClientLook is that. The guys who run it know commercial real estate and get how we need to use it. Love the scoop page with the running activity log of all team members' activities. Great to populate a deal and link all the players. In my opinion Apto was a time drain. ClientLook had us painlessly up and running at maximum effectiveness overnight. Nathan PellowSenior Vice President, Colliers International We spent weeks looking at CRMs and decided on ClientLook. It's so easy to navigate. They imported all my contacts and properties. We made the right choice! Zachary LeBeoufNewmark Cornish & Carey For over two decades, I used a competitive CRM that was a desk top product. I evolved with that CRM through MS-DOS, to Windows to cloud-based. Even though our business is rapidly changing, that CRM was antiquated and stuck in the early 2000s. It didn't afford me the mobile flexibility I demanded. Additionally, the sites I deal with most often like BuildOut for listing syndication, ProspectNow for ownership information, MailChimp for email marketing, and AnalystPro for analytics didn't talk to each other or to my CRM. I am pleased to say, ClientLook solved all of those problems for me in one sweet solution. Allen C. BuchananPrincipal, Lee & Associates ClientLook is best in class. As a CRM it delivers a new level of simplicity, convenience and power that we've never seen before in a commercial real estate technology solution. Michael J. Lipsey, CCIM, CRB, CPM, MICPPresident, The Lipsey Company ClientLook CRM and their Virtual Assistant have put the fun back into CRE. I'm at least 30% more efficient in my daily business. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. Michael E. Dreyer, CCIMColdwell Banker Commercial Proudly servicing We're grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the business success of so many.

The Pakistani contemporary artist is attracting much-deserved attention with his thoughtful, well-crafted pieces.
For Rashid Rana's art, clever is in the details
The assembled crowd lines up to peer into the grid of stainless steel cubes that make up Desperately Seeking Paradise, the highlight of the Pakistani contemporary artist Rashid Rana's major current exhibition in Manchester. Meanwhile, in London, his abstract piece Dead Bird Flying Series II is, as The National reported on Friday, the "runaway success" of a charity auction at Bonhams.
Rana's work features in public and private collections from Australia to Japan and India - and regularly sells at three times its expected price at auction. Without question, Rana is Pakistan's most famous and successful contemporary visual artist. And yet he's rather bemused by all the attention.
"At my first solo show in India, I was putting everything on the line to produce All Eyes Skywards," he says. "Back then, someone said to me 'I hope you know nobody buys photography in India'. My response was that I taught to make a living, and didn't really expect this work to sell. And the fact of the matter was, my works did not sell initially, it was only after the critical acclaim that commercial success followed. It's undeniably been a very pleasant surprise."
Walking around his exhibition Everything Happens at Once, the centrepiece of the Asia Triennial Manchester, it's easy to see why his work has become so popular. In Gallery 2, What Lies Between Flesh and Blood (2009) features the kind of Rothko-aping panels of colour hung on the walls of many a cool apartment. But look closer, and the concerns of its 43-year-old creator tally less with the abstract expressionism of the 20th century and more with the buzzwords of our times: urbanisation and tradition, faith and pop culture. The work is actually a digital photomontage on a huge scale, made up of hundreds of tiny pictures of skin and gore taken from fashion photography and print media. It's a shocking but intelligent comment on the excesses of the 21st century.
And asking the viewer to look closer is a theme Rana returns to again and again. Desperately Seeking Paradise depicts, from one angle, a skyscraper-laden cityscape that could almost be the view down Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai. In fact, he made a special version of the work for the Pakistan Pavilion at Art Dubai 2008. But these totems to capitalism are actually made up of thousands of tiny pictures of small houses in Lahore. With its revealing title, too, is Desperately Seeking Paradise a political work?
"Well, I think my interest in these structures comes from my fascination with the thought that workers recruited from Bangladesh, Pakistan, India and so on build these mega structures. Does that make my work political? I'm not sure, but I am interested in politics, so often the work is inspired by those concerns. It becomes a catalyst rather than the end product. Desperately Seeking Paradise, really, just depicts the sheer polarity and unevenness of the world we live in."
Whatever Rana's politics, there's a deft, almost magical sleight of hand present in most of his work, which lends it a kind of theatre. Rana calls this technique - where every image contains within it an opposite - duality, but I wonder whether it's something more simple: he just likes the element of surprise.
"Actually, it's not about that," he disagrees. "In the mid 1990s I gradually became more interested in reaching a wider audience, and confronting the viewer with familiar imagery or easily readable visuals seemed to me to be a way to make my work more engaging and accessible. I just want people to relate to the work and enjoy it."
No wonder, then, that he's so admired. In that sense, his collection of works under the Language Series umbrella - which will be shown at the Abu Dhabi Art Fair next month - initially seems like something of a step change. From a distance, the works certainly appear to draw heavily on the more haphazard work of Jackson Pollock. "It's part admiration, part telling my own story," he admits.
But once again, that's only from a distance. Rana's input is on a macro-scale; the initial abstract image is actually thousands of signs in Lahore, many written in Urdu. An excess of competing information ends up meaning nothing. It's a clever point. It'll probably make him a fortune.
"When I make work I don't think about the commercial value," he says. "But I do benefit from the fact that it has monetary value - because it means I have more opportunities to make more ambitious works."
Everything Is Happening at Once is at Cornerhouse, Manchester, UK, until December 18 (www.cornerhouse.org); Asia Triennial Manchester runs until November 27 (www.asiatriennialmanchester.com); Rashid Rana's work will be displayed by the Lisson Gallery at the Abu Dhabi Art Fair, November 16-19 (www.abudhabiartfair.ae)

Think about what career is best suited for you, and where you want to study. Request more information now.
Get the facts about Oakton Community College fall 2016 calendar, and registering for elective discussion sections and seminars. As a student, your first stop should be the registrar's office, where you can pick up a free copy of both the academic calendar and course catalog, in order to find available credit classes that you may be interested in taking. It may surprise you that it's possible to enroll for a full-time course load, without having any 8am classes at all. Finally, check with the admissions office for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Oakton Community College sall semester information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Oakton Community College.
Research demonstrates that college freshman taking a full courseload go on to complete their degrees at a much higher rate than those students who study part-time. When choosing a major, plan ahead and be sure that you are picking courses that will meet transfer requirements of other colleges and universities later on. Further, by choosing your major early, you may be able to take some required core classes in a community college, saving both time and tuition fees.
Look at all the schools in your state first, as in-state tuition may be lower for state residents. The course catalog will outline which classes are required for a particular major, and what minimum GPA you'll need to maintain your class standing. Please contact the academic advising staff at the school you are interested in applying to about their specific course registration guidelines. Beyond degree requirements such as Oakton Community College fall classes, you may consider East Georgia State College dropping classes for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

text: Greetings everyone, I posted a while back about a project I was looking to do. I ended up finding a local company to do the work, and overall they've done a nice job (from what I can tell, but that doesn't say much). I have a few concerns, and I'd appreciate it if I could get some independent opinions. They put in about 12 tons of boulders for a retaining wall. Looks great. They're using very large (I'd say 5x5 or larger) flagstone pieces for the patio and using polymetric sand in between the "joints." So, my questions are: 1) The patio sits at least 6" or more above the grass line. This wasn't what I was expecting at all, but he says it was necessary. I disagree with the idea of that from a customer service standpoint, but I can live with it. Is there any issue with having the patio level that far above the grass line? I'll try to get a picture if it helps, but I thought the patio line should be roughly level, or maybe a few inches above, the grass line. 2) The most disconcerting for me. There's a long crack in one of the largest pieces of flagstone. It snakes around the stone and is probably 6' long. I can't tell how deep the crack runs. Should I refuse this piece? Is it normal to have such cracks? I hate the idea of paying for a new patio, and though we're using stone that's who knows how old, I'd like to have relatively flawless pieces. Opinions greatly appreciated. As a consumer, I've thus far been pretty frustrated by the experience.

The general counsel for News Corporation, Lawrence A. Jacobs, is leaving "to pursue new opportunities," the company said Wednesday.
Rupert Murdoch, the chairman and chief executive, said he was grateful for Mr. Jacobs' "wise counsel" over the more than 15 years he was with the company.
"I know this was a difficult decision for him to make, but I understand his desire to try new challenges," Mr. Murdoch said.
Mr. Jacobs's resignation comes at a time when News Corporation is still dealing with the repercussions of a far-reaching phone hacking operation at one of its London newspapers, The News of the World. While Mr. Jacobs is not known to have had any involvement in the matter, he was the highest ranking legal officer in the media conglomerate during a period when the subsidiary that owns The News of the World, News International, was forced to apologize and pay out settlements to celebrities and others who had their phone voice mail systems hacked.
The latest admission of fault in the matter came Tuesday when a lawyer for the newspaper offered "sincere apologies" to an actress, Sienna Miller. The paper had already agreed to pay her a £100,000 settlement, about $164,000.
In 2007, The News of the World's royal editor, Clive Goodman, and an investigator employed by The News of the World, Glenn Mulcaire, were jailed after pleading guilty to having illegally intercepted voice mail messages of Prince William and Prince Harry and their aides. People who have left the paper have described a reckless culture to how exclusive news is obtained, raising questions about whether illegal activities were overlooked as long as they delivered scoops.Continue reading the main story
The other properties in News Corporation's large portfolio, which includes The Times of London, The Wall Street Journal and Fox News, have not been implicated in the scandal.
Mr. Jacobs, 56, was named group general counsel and senior executive vice president in 2004. His tenure included another frustrating incident for the company: a $500 million settlement to Valassis Communications, which had accused a News Corporation subsidiary of trying to obtain a monopoly in the in-store coupon business.
A News Corporation spokesman said the company would be looking at both internal and external candidates to fill the position, saying that "we will decide on the right candidate at the appropriate time."Continue reading the main story

Back in 2008 Warner Brothers began work on a CGI Thundercats movie with director Jerry O'Flaherty at the helm. A source working on the now defunct film released the work to Flixist for online posting. Two thoughts immediately come to mind: 1) It's a good thing this movie was shelved. The footage above is pretty awful. 2) It's a shame, because the footage above is also very promising. The look and feel of the animation is quite superb, but instead of making the movie appeal to an audience of youngsters and 30-year-old nerds who grew up with the original cartoon, it seems like WB was going for lowest common denominator.
And that's unfortunate. Because the initial excitement from the concept artwork was off the charts. [via devour]
