I have an itouch phone without a manual. I'd like to be able to transfer music files (from my music folder) and podcasts (from itunes) onto the itouch, but don't know how to do that. Does anybody know how to do this?

As far as I know, there is no such thing as an itouch phone. Can you be more specific?

Healthy is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.
Import your music & podcast files into iTunes, connect up the iPhone/iPod touch to your computer & press "sync".
Or alternatively go to the apple website to find out how to do it... Apple I think...

Here's a link directly to the iPod touch manual:
If that doesn't work get back here and I'll ask my resident 15yr old who is umbillically attached to his itouch. Sigh.

Just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right.
I am almost positive that the iTouch has a user manual installed on it .... maybe under settings? I don't have mine right here or I'd look.
Thanks for all of the advice. I'm well on my way!!
Edit: I have now downloaded thousands of my songs onto the itouch. I'm going to start next on photos. It's going everywhere with me from now on!!

import photos in to iphoto, connect iPod, synch...
Sounds silly but it IS that simple!!!
Free Charmed.
^^^^Thanks Novice. I've done that and it all worked well, but for some reason, whenever I add new photos to my itouch, the previous photos get deleted. Do you know how to save them as you go??
Ohh that's interesting, do you mean as you save them or when you sync it with your computer.
If it's the latter uncheck the "delete photos after transfer" box.
As for the other I dunno, never cone across that before. I'll have a look in a while I need to go out now.
Free Charmed.
Both. I add the photos, they seem fine there, but have obviously not been saved, because when I try to add new photos, the previous lot get deleted. (I know I'm doing something wrong during sync as well).Ohh that's interesting, do you mean as you save them or when you sync it with your computer.
I'll give your suggestion a try. Thanks.
Ok, so I'm using a mac to iPod so it might be slightly different, I szved some photos that I wanted on my iPod in my "itouch photos" file on the pictures folder (not quite the same as my iphoto folder, you will note) anything in there goes onto my iPod fairly permenently... Try putting them inthete & see how it goes?
Otherwise i guess that you need to check in your settings? Maybe hit restore factory setting if you can find it (I know that you can do this while synching to iTunes) - I'd look in there.
Has it got upto date software? There might be something in there tgat is causing this otherwise?

Graduate scholarships are dependent on the availability of funds. When the summer semester starts, the graduate school is out of money because of the university's various shortfalls including the $200k owed on the Gator Bowl.

I am faced with either two choices: (1) Take more credit hours than I need to qualify for a loan or (2) Not teach the course I am assigned, which ensures undergraduate students take longer and spend more money to get their degrees.

As to the expense itself, why are there 750 people in the traveling party?

If you take only the football team, coaches, and athletics trainers, then you are looking at 115 people tops. Goin' Band from Raiderland has roughly 200 members. The band took a bus and paid their way to the bowl game.

Who were the remainder of the travel party? Why did they not pay their own freight?

When I travel to a conference on TTU business, the school reimburses my trip expense. They do not reimburse my spouse's or children's expenses.

I also like how Tech could not convince enough suckers to purchase a ducat to this lousy game. Tech then purchases the remaining tickets.

How exactly does this bowl game serve the university's email@example.com

I am lucky that I don't get extremely chapped lips but they do need an exfoliation every now and then to remove the dead skin cells. I hadn't tried a lip scrub before so thought I would give the one in Lush a go. Their scrubs come in three flavours; Bubblegum, Mint Julips and Popcorn. I knew instantly which one I was going to choose!
The ingredients are caster sugar and oils which does make it seem a little pricey at £5.25 for a 25g pot. However I would say that it is worth it as the scrub just seems to be never ending! All you have to do is get a small amount on your finger and rub into your lips. Then you can choose to lick the sugary bubblegum goodness off - yum yum - or wipe off with a tissue...but where's the fun in that?!
Being a pot filled with sugar granules it can become a little messy on application especially if you've picked up a lot of product on your finger...unless you are going for the "I've just eaten a doughnut without licking my lips" look! It's a product that I wouldn't use whilst out and about because of this. For me, I enjoy using the scrub as part of my evening routine. Once scrubbed, I apply some lip balm to keep my lips feeling soft and smooth.
I like that you get a little picture of which employee made your product and when..so I'd like to thank Robert as he did a great job making the scrub I bought!
To buy the Bubblegum Lip Scrub or other flavours, go to lush.co.uk

A list of 10 "Don'ts" for Planning a Wedding from The Knot
You know how when you're single, everyone wants to set you up? Or they always give you unsolicited advice like "well, there are plenty of fish in the sea." And, "the right one will come along one day." However true or untrue the previous statements may be, whenever you're going through something monumental in your life, there will be comments from the peanut gallery.
When I started planning my wedding I felt pulled in every direction, from all different types of people. I learned early on, it's nice to politely accept the advice and also to politely decline it. The fact of the matter is...IT'S YOUR WEDDING. My parents have been the easiest going of everyone, my fiance's parents are a whole other story. But I digress, The Knot compiled a list of the 12 Worst Pieces of Advice that Bride's have received. I picked 10. Many stem from strict tradition like wearing white on your wedding day, and others are strategic...either way, it makes for an interesting list.
Take a peek below:
1.) "I must wear a white dress"--The bad advice stems from a traditional Grandma, who was afraid that guests would think that her granddaughter wasn't a virgin. The Knot says that this rule is totally antiquated. Wear whatever color flatters your skin tone. My co-worker even wore a purple gown to her wedding! And she looked STUNNING!
2.) "It's your wedding, and this day is all about you!"--As badly as I want this statement to be true, it's not. Yes, it is MY wedding, but just like I would accept my Academy Award "I can't forget about the little people." It's just simple consideration for your friends, family, guests.
3.) "Type up and print generic thank-you notes ahead of time, and just slap a label {of your names} on them instead of signing them"--Sure, it's a time-saver. But it's also extremely tacky. I received a thank-you note just like this one and it made me feel like a number, and not special. They didn't even mention the gift, which was NOT on the registry.
4.) "Send invites to people you know will not come."--This is the exact argument I am having with my fiance and his family. Just like The Knot says, those hopeful no-shows may decide to make an appearance. I cannot run this risk. My venue taps out at 115 and I will not invite anymore than that. I refuse to invite anyone to "be polite" and if they respect my fiance and I, they will understand that we couldn't accommodate everyone on such a small budget.
5.) "If it's not a diamond, then it's not a real engagement ring." -- The Knot says it perfectly: Kate Middleton rocks a sapphire, and ladies in Greece wear pearls. Wear what you love, or at least what was given to you.
6.) "Someone told me to ship the gown to New Jersey to avoid paying NYC taxes."--First of all, that's tax evasion and second if there are astronomical charges to ship, the most economical solution would be to pick it up at the salon yourself. That's what I did to avoid being charged $100 extra to ship to 2 hours away.
7.) "My mother suggested having the cocktail hour BEFORE the ceremony."--File this under Extremely Stupid Idea, your guests would be sloshed before the band could play "Here comes the Bride." The Knot suggests serving non-alcoholic beverages like lemonade or cucumber water before hand. Since my wedding is in November, I want to serve mulled cider to keep our guests warm and in the seasonal spirit.
8.) "Take out a loan for the wedding!"--File this under, Worst Idea Ever. Debt is not a way to enter into a marriage, and take out a loan for ONE DAY? There are plenty of inexpensive and meaningful options that you can afford. It may be smart to wait a few years to save diligently, or have a small shindig now and a larger one later on down the road.
9.) "You'll want a short engagement so the groom doesn't change his mind."--If this is the case...you shouldn't be getting married. The Knot says, shorter engagements leave you less time to find vendors. Most engagements are over a year long, and planning a wedding is stressful. If your groom runs away during this time, he'd never last the entire marriage. It's a good trial.
10.) "Cut back on costs and have a potluck and BYOB reception."--I'm not going to lie, I have pondered this and also just hopping on the next flight to Vegas. However, depending on your preferences and your family's have a sit down discussion because if this is the advice you're given, you may have to rethink some things.
What was the worst advice you were ever given? Do you agree with The Knot's list?

First noticed when she was crowned with the Fresh Faces Award at age 13, Nikki Cox later received recognition for playing Tiffany Malloy in UPN's series Unhappily Ever After (1995-1999). She was also a regular on "General Hospital," "Someone Like Me," "The Norm Show," "Nikki" and "Las Vegas." An avid dancer, Nikki worked with Michael Jackson on his Moonwalker project and in a Paula Abdul video. On the wide screen, she could be seen in The Glimmer Man (1996), Nutty Professor II: The Klumps (2000) and Run Ronnie Run (2002).
Brown-eyed, red/brown-haired Nikki Cox, who stands at 5' 7'' tall and has 36-23-35 measurements, was listed as one of Stuff magazine's "102 Sexiest Women In The World" in 2002. As for her private life, Nikki became engaged to actor and comedian Bobcat Goldthwait (voice for stuffed bunny Mr. Floppy on "Unhappily Ever After," together since 1998) and once dated another "Unhappily Ever After" costar, actor Kevin Connolly.
Childhood and Family:
"I am the most accident-prone kid you've ever met. I fell flat the other day, just walking from my house to the car. And a week ago at the studio, I spilled hot coffee on myself." Nikki Cox
On June 2, 1978, Nicole Avery Cox was born in Los Angeles, California, to parents Meredith and Terry Cox (manager). She is the elder sister of actor Matthew Cox (born June 23, 1987), who guest-starred on two episodes of her show "Unhappily Ever After" (1995).
"I'm a nail-biter. If I didn't have fake nails, my fingers would be bloody stumps." Nikki Cox
Unhappily Ever After
Having danced since age four, Nikki Cox was spotted by a dance agent who offered to help her develop a professional dancing career.
Despite her parents' dismay, Nikki joined The Joffrey Ballet (performed in a production of "Romeo and Juliet") and the Los Angeles Music Center Ballet Tour. After her first speaking role as a guest on NBC's "Mama's Family" (November, 1987), Nikki landed on the big screen in a dance sequence for the children's sci-fi feature, Stewart Raffill's MAC and Me (1988). Afterward, she continued to dance, notably in Michael Jackson episodic musical feature Moonwalker (1988) and in Paula Abdul video "Forever Your Girl" (1989).
Nikki debuted on a TV movie in the ABC biographical film The Ryan White Story (1989), in which she played the sister of the title character (played by Lukas Haas). She also appeared in the drama A Family for Joe (1990, TV) and was spotted as a guest in the series "Star Trek: The Next Generation" and "Night Court."
After a cameo appearance in James Cameron's sci-fi action Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger), Nikki went back to TV playing roles in the NBC movies Danger Island (1992) and Bloodlines: Murder in the Family (1993). She guest starred in sitcoms like "Murphy Brown," "Baywatch" (received nomination for Best Young Actress Guest-Starring in a Television Series at Young Artist Awards), ABC's "Boy Meets World" and CBS' "The Nanny." She also had a recurring role in the comedy series "Blossom" and the NBC Saturday morning teen comedy series "California Dreams."
In 1993, Nikki won her first regular role as Gina Williams (1993-1995) on ABC's popular daytime drama "General Hospital." She followed it up with the lead role of Samantha "Sam" Stepjak in NBC's short-lived comedy series "Someone Like Me" (1994).
Nikki nabbed her breakout role as smart, stunning high school girl Tiffany Malloy on the WB sitcom "Unhappily Ever After." She portrayed the role from 1995 to 1999, sharing the screen with other cast members, including Geoffrey Pierson and Kevin Connolly. On her character in the series, Nikki explained, "Tiffany is self-absorbed, but she's also very smart. She always finds the opportunity to get what she wants. She also likes to use her sex appeal as power over her peers."
While working on the series, Nikki appeared in the NBC acquaintance rape-themed TV-movie She Cried No (1996, a.k.a. Freshman Fall), John Gray's crime action The Glimmer Man (1996, starring Steven Seagal) and Gregg Champion and Alan Smithee's Sub Down (1997, starring Stephen Baldwin and Gabrielle Anwar). Nikki was also spotted as a guest in "Sister, Sister," "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" and "Sin City Spectacular," as well as played a recurring role on the CBS series "Pearl."
Her role in "Unhappily Ever After" came to an end in 1999 and Nikki scored another regular role, that of receptionist and former prostitute Taylor Clayton (1999-2000) on the ABC sitcom "The Norm Show." She also returned to The WB to star in her sitcom "Nikki" (2000-2002), where she played a Las Vegas showgirl from small town America.
On the silver screen, Nikki was cast in Peter Segal fantasy comedy Nutty Professor II: The Klumps (2000), R.D. Robb's drama Don's Plum (2001) and Troy Miller's comedy Run Ronnie Run (2002). In 2003, she played Mary Connell in the NBC crime drama series "Las Vegas," alongside James Caan, Josh Duhamel and Vanessa Marcil.

Men's Basketball Falls to Wheaton in Opener of MIAA/CCIW Challenge
Friday, December 03, 2010
KENOSHA, WI - A five-minute stretch to open the second half proved to be the undoing for the Calvin men's basketball team Friday night at the MIAA/CCIW Challenge as the Knights suffered an 86-64 defeat to the Wheaton College Thunder.
Calvin (3-3) trailed just 41-39 at halftime but Wheaton, ranked 21st nationally, ripped off an 18-2 scoring run in the opening five minutes of the second half to put the game away. Wheaton (5-1) outscored Calvin 45-25 in the second half and finished the game with a 56.1 percent field goal clip including 52 percent (13 of 25) from three-point range. Calvin shot just 36.5 percent overall including just 34.5 percent in the second half.
"I thought we played pretty good defense for the first 20 minutes but in the second half, we played very individually and that came back to haunt us," said Calvin men's basketball coach Kevin Vande Streek. "If we want to be successful, we have to play together, particularly against a strong team like Wheaton."
Calvin was led in defeat by senior Brad Schnyders (Hudsonville/Unity Christian HS) who tossed in 13 points off the bench while sophomore Tom Snikkers (Jenison/Unity Christian HS) had 11 points. Wheaton junior Spencer Schultze scored a game-high 21 points while Andrew Jahns had 17 points, Tim McCrary 13 points and Jeremy Plederer 12 points.
Calvin returns to action on Saturday when it faces Carthage - the host of the four-team MIAA/CCIW Challenge - at 4 p.m. (EST).

Project Runway Sent a Designer Home for Cheating
An annoying designer got booted on Thursday night's episode of Project Runway after being accused of cheating during the competition.
An annoying designer got booted on Thursday night's episode of Project Runway after being accused of cheating during the competition.
An important reminder for anyone interested in designing for plus-size women: Conservatism isn't necessarily your friend.
Project Runway's resident dad Tim Gunn is super disappointed with the show's latest cast of designers. In fact, he says he "hated" this season. The winning designer thinks maybe some of that is Tim's fault.
In today's Tweet Beat, Tim Gunn is one of my favorite people, I feel like Hilary Duff did that on purpose and maybe if we all beg him, Jordan Peele will post a Vine or something
Project Runway's Tim Gunn, the show's normally mild-mannered guiding hand, had an atypical blow-up in Thursday night's episode. Or as Tim Gunn might say, he was uncharacteristically perturbed.
Hey what's up hello, it's that time again.
Kelly Osbourne has signed on as a judge for Lifetime's new kids competition show, Project Runway Junior. The series, hosted by Tim Gunn and supermodel Hannah Davis, will allow teen fashion designers, aged 14 to 17, to show off their talents. The show's other judges include designer Christian Siriano, winner of Project…
This summer, New York City will flood with the tears of overworked teens when Lifetime begins filming Project Runway Junior, a spinoff of Project Runway hosted by Tim Gunn and Sports Illustrated model Hannah Davis.
Jessa and Jill Duggar were interviewed by Fox's Megyn Kelly last night. The interview was a continuation of Kelly's sit-down with Duggar parents Jim Bob and Michelle. During the first interview, the Duggars defended the decisions they made after their son Josh admitted to molesting five girls, four of which were his…
Tim Gunn—as we all know—is a very elegant man, but is he living his most elegant life? The answer, according to the New York Times, is yes, he most certainly is.
After last night, Season 13 of Project Runway is down to its final four designers. Thursday's episode was the last challenge before Fashion Week, where Sean (who's the best) or Kini will inevitably win. But first, one last dramatic presentation from sore loser Korina!
Someone at Lifetime TV (apparently mistaking me for someone important) sent me an invitation to the Project Runway show at Lincoln Center. So I spent last Friday morning there, attempting to capture interesting tidbits from the experience using — listed in order of reliability — a camera, a tape recorder and my brain.
Project Runway mentor Tim Gunn is known for bringing kind, practical and honest criticism to the workroom as frantic, sleep-deprived designers rush to complete nearly-impossible clothing designs. He's also recognized for being one of the nicest people of, well, anything, which is why it's so disappointing that Gunn…
Not content with forcing people to make it work on Project Runway, Tim Gunn is getting his own fashion competition show called...Under the Gunn. Variety reports that it premieres in January on Lifetime and will include mentors from Project Runway – like Mondo! – and judges like designer Rachel Roy.
Ouch ouch ouch, my heart. Tim Gunn talked to Larry "Still a Thing?" King about his admiration for gay youth who are open about their sexuality, and his own struggles communicating with his parents.
I'm pretty sure that if I ever met Tim Gunn my tear ducts would start blasting like two tiny firehoses and wouldn't stop until the pair of us had to swim out the window clinging to ethereal chiffon flotsam. Then Tim Gunn would become my NEW DAD and we'd travel the land scolding internet trolls and eating cheddar bay…

So, this is the worst! Up to 27 animals died in their farm facility during the making of The Hobbit trilogy, which the wranglers involved in the production claim was "a death trap."

Tim Gunn opened up about his personal life on the new show he's co-hosting, The Revolution. He says that he's celibate — and happy. "I haven't had sex in 29 years," said the designer mentor and former Parsons dean. "Do I feel like less of a person because of it? No." Gunn says that an "intense" relationship that ended…

Hello Dogtown
I follow your Skymomod since before the Nexus incident, and even here nowadays. I wanted to ask you a couple things if you don't mind.
Will there be a Skymomod 13? If so, will it include the latest works like werepanther, etc, as enemies as well?
And second, in what difficulty do you play the game? I mean, I find extremely annoyingly easy the standard Skyrim enemies so I played in Hard or Very hard. But now with your mod that's waaay too hard, so I have to tone it down... making average enemies weak again. Am I doing something wrong?
And, again, thanks for the work. have a nice day :)

A golden, crisp-skinned roast chicken is a thing of beauty. Most of the birds grown commercially taste of nothing more than bland, pale protein, but chicken that has been allowed to forage around the yard is succulent, juicy and full of flavour. While I could probably live on a diet of vegetables and pulses, I remain omnivorous because I love the flavour of good flesh - especially chicken.
Carving and sharing chicken brought to the table has traditionally been a uniting ritual, symbolic of cohesion, family and friendship.
What to look for
Birds that are free-range and allowed to grow naturally, free from antibiotics and growth hormones, are best. It pays to buy free-range, GM-free birds. Typically, the larger the bird, the greater the flavour. A chicken larger than 2.2kg is hard to find, but well worth seeking out.
Chicken goes with
Extra virgin olive oil; butter; sesame oil; fermented black beans; garlic; onions; leeks; parsley; coriander; tarragon; sage; oregano; thyme; rosemary; fennel; lemongrass;
cumin; paprika; ginger; mustard; saffron; lemon and lime; chilli; mushrooms; tomatoes; root vegetables, especially potatoes, celeriac, carrots and parsnips; peas; mayonnaise; soy sauce; olives; anchovies; capers.
Roast chicken with tarragon stuffing
For 4 people, choose a 1.6-2kg chicken. Prepare it by removing the neck and trimming any loose skin or fat. Wipe the cavity and the surface of the bird so it is dry. For the stuffing, gently fry a medium-sized, finely chopped onion and 4 cloves of minced garlic in 100g butter until soft, but not coloured. Add the onions, garlic and all the liquid to 2 cups of coarse breadcrumbs, half a cup of finely grated parmesan and a cup of coarsely chopped fresh tarragon. Season with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly. Insert two fingers under the skin of each breast from the pointy end; the skin should easily detach, leaving a pocket. Stuff a couple of spoons of mixture in each breast pocket and put the remainder in the cavity. Rub the chicken with extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with salt and roast in a preheated 220C oven for 45-60 minutes, until done.
It's Australia's first interactive weekly newspaper cooking column, and you can also access a growing bank of Manfredi's previous recipes and videos for dishes from pan-fried whiting fillets with olive and caper salsa to fennel and orange salad. As well, you can email our interactive chef at email@example.com.
Chicken stock
Leftover roast chicken carcasses make great stock. Put them in a pot, cover with cold water and add a chopped carrot, quartered onion, 2 chopped celery sticks, 4 garlic cloves and 3-4 sprigs of flat-leaf parsley. Simmer for 3-4 hours. Keep skimming the scum as it comes to the surface. When ready, strain, cool and freeze or use straight away.

Welcome Monday! Spring Break Ideas
5 comments:
Hello Elizabeth:ReplyDelete
The city for us whenever we have spare time and whatever country we find ourselves in. We are toying with the idea of visiting Krakow......
If I could take a break right now I would go to Rome or maybe somewhere in Sicily. But I will be at work and at home all week. So I will just daydream.ReplyDelete
We are cleaning the green gunk off our boat decks which winter has kindly left for us. I am keeping a watchful eye on John to make sure he doesn't overdo it. He thinks he's 22!ReplyDelete
Not yet Spring break for us, dear friend, but how fun to dream! I wish I could say I'm writing from Paris and picking up a jar of chocolat chaud for you ;) This would be my destination of choice...April in Paris bien sur!ReplyDelete
Our weather is crazy as well...after a couple of summery weeks, it is so windy and cold today. I'm feeling for all of the flowers and fresh green leaves...
Stay cozy, sweet Elizabeth..
Much love,
- Irina
Hi Elizabeth, this week I am getting ready for our Spring Break. It starts next week, two weeks in Vietnam and then later in the month, a few days in Paris. Personally, I taking the whole month of April as Spring Break, the kids get 2-3 weeks. Hope you have a fabulous week and thanks again for your comment today, it made me smile. I left you a comment on the post. :) xxReplyDelete
Thank you for coming to visit Pine Cones and Acorns. Your comments are greatly appreciated. Although I try to come to visit every blog that comments sometimes I just do not get the chance, but I do try to comment here.

The Register reports that Hitachi has lost a patent dispute before the Japanese Supreme Court. Former Hitachi employee Seiji Yonezawa conducted research that is now used on reading optical disks, including CDs and DVDs and has been awarded 163 million yen (£733,000). Hitachi has criticised the decision.

Quoth the IPkat:
"The IPKat is split on this issue. It seems a bit rough to deprive creative employees from the benefit of a job well-done, and it also deprives them on an incentive to do their research above and beyond the call of duty. At the same time though, researchers are employed to do research, so it makes sense that their employees should be able to benefit from this".
Assuming you mean "employers" in the last sentence, as opposed to "employees", they do of course benefit from their researchers' research - by selling the results and making (is some cases truly enormous) profits therefrom.
The Japanese patent law is quite explicit in its Employees' Inventions section (Article 35) that an employee is entitled as a matter of right to remumeration for a patented invention (section 3), and that the remuneration shall be set according to the profits that the employer will make from the invention (An article that was honoured more in the breach than in the observance in the pastm, but times are changing).
The question in the case at hand concerned whether those profits should be construed as purely domestic, or as the inventor argues, with reference to overseas sails as well.
The court ruled that all profits flowing from a patent should be assessed. This is surely right; an employer after all need not market an invention domestically but may opt to market it only overseas, in which case, if Hitachi were right, the employee would be entitled to no remuneration at all.
35. Employees' inventions
(1) An employer, a legal entity or a state or local public entity (hereinafter referred to as the "employer, etc.") shall have a non-exclusive license on the patent right concerned, where an employee, an executive officer of a legal entity or a national or local public official (hereinafter referred to as the "employee, etc.") has obtained a patent for an invention which by reason of its nature falls within the scope of the business of the employer, etc. and an act or acts resulting in the invention were part of the present or past duties of the employee, etc. performed on behalf of the employer, etc. (hereinafter referred to as an "employee's invention") or where a successor in title to the right to obtain a patent for an employee's invention has obtained a patent therefor.
(2) In the case of an employee's invention made by an employee, etc. which is not an employee's invention, any contractual provision, service regulation or other stipulation providing in advance that the right to obtain a patent or the patent right shall pass to the employer, etc. or that he shall have an exclusive license on such invention shall be null and void.
(3) The employee, etc. shall have the right to a reasonable remuneration when he has enabled the right to obtain a patent or the patent right with respect to an employee's invention to pass to the employer, etc. or has given the employer, etc. an exclusive right to such invention in accordance with the contract, service regulations or other stipulations.
(4) The amount of such remuneration shall be decided by reference to the profits that the employer, etc. will make from the invention and to the amount of contribution the employer, etc. made to the making of the invention.
Note that in the Japanese language, there are no definite or indefinite grammatical articles. Imagine what replacing the second "a" with "the" in section 3 above would do for the law's interpretation - Hitachi would then presumably have been right.
- Friday, 20 October 2006 at 01:55:00 BST
Can anyone clarify whether these benefits to employees only apply to those employed in Japan? What about, for example, where someone is employed in say Europe and a Japanese patent is obtained?
- Friday, 20 October 2006 at 14:21:00 BST
That's a very good question.
I am told that the case at hand would appear to be applicable to Japanese companies only. However, for example, a European researcher working for say, Hitachi, would almost certainly be covered by the legislation if a Japanese patent was obtained, presumably even if the research itself was done in Europe.
I dare say Japanese companies are unlikely to advertise this widely, or even at all, to their employees overseas, although with the increasing amounts of transnational research being done, it will become increasingly important.
As shown by this case and others (notably the Nakamura blue LED case), the amount of remuneration can be described, relative to what other jurisdictions provide (typically nothing!), as being very generous indeed.
I wonder if this might partly because "inventing" has been seen as something here in Japan that is more than just mere "research"; notice IPkat's initial post about people being paid to "research" as opposed to "invent"; and while one might expect a person to "research" as part of their ordinary employment activities, expecting them to "invent" might be seen as going to far. For example, under Japanese patent law, a patent is ostensibly only granted for "a *highly advanced* creation of technical ideas...", and not just anything (albeit this is never in practice used as a patentability requirement whether in the JPO or the courts).
Anyway, the current legislation and its judicial interpretation certainly reflect the current stance in Japan of helping to ensure that inventors themselves are assisted by the patent system. To hold that only Japanese nationals could so benefit would certainly be discriminatory.
Regards, Luke

Looking for relatives of Clarence McComas
My father was Clarence McComas, Jr. born August 4, 1928. My grandfather, Clarence McComas, born, I think, in 1902 in West Virginia, was married to Ida Mersing McComas. They divorced and both remarried. There doesn't seem to be any info on the Internet that I can find about my great grandfather on the McComas side or relatives back further. I see a lot of info here about older lines of McComas families, but I don't know if they are related to me or not. Any info on my relatives would be greatly appreciated.

(In case you missed how the Big Breakfast Adventure got started, you can read it here: How it all began)
Someday it was bound to happen. I just didn't expect it to be today. Everything else today was just, well, perfect. Brilliantly beautiful winter day in Seattle & a Big Breakfast Adventure at one of the poshest breakfast spots in town with an incredible woman. Oh, and a parking spot right outside the front door. It was going to be a great day. And it was a great day. It just had a little hiccup in the middle.
I blame the whole darn thing on Michelle. I mean this is the first time this has happened & it's also the first time I have had breakfast with Michelle. The two must be connected. It must be Michelle's fault! :-) I have known Michelle for exactly 69 days today. Yet in that 69 days Michelle has become one of the people I am most thankful for in 2010. Everything about our meeting & subsequent friendship has been entirely serendipitous. You know when you meet someone & then about 327 stars all magically align in your life right afterwards & that someone is somehow connected to all of it? Like that.
In an effort, in some {very} small way, to thank Michelle for the bounteous effect she has had on my life, I begged her to join me for a Big Breakfast Adventure at The Fairmont Hotel so I could feed her the Best Steak & Eggs in Seattle. And we had the best time having breakfast together. Forget the food, we just had a blast anyway. We talked {at least} one of the hind legs off that poor donkey & laughed a lot too.
Fantastic start to a Saturday. Thanks Michelle! (And you were the absolutely best thing about the whole breakfast.)
So picture this: Michelle loves my photography. She does after all have a whole bevy, 32 to be exact, of my images currently hanging in her fabulous Salon on the Microsoft Campus. Michelle also loves following along with Foodie Footnotes & was terribly excited to be an integral part of a Big Breakfast Adventure & maybe even write a word or two. Or even a whole darn post. So we're sitting in the rarefied surroundings of the Georgian Room at the Fairmont Hotel. Breakfast is served, Madam.
Michelle looks over with a big smile & says, "Is this the part where you take the photos?" I reach into my bag & out pops my trusty Nikon. I knock off a couple of shots & back into the bag it goes.
"Is that it? You're just going to take two shots? You get all those amazing photos on your website by taking just a couple of shots?" Michelle asks in an-incredulous-yet-almost-disappointed way.
"Well…er," I replied "I never take many…and I try to be quick so as not to be obtrusive & because I don't want the food to get cold".
"Oh. I thought the photos were all staged. I thought there was all this prep involved".
"Nope. That's it. I just shoot it how it comes".
I am sure that by now you can all see what's coming like a freight train careering down the track towards you. Or rather me. I get home, I download the shots & would you believe it. Horrible. Totally unusable. No images for the blog. I sat there for several minutes, not quite sure whether to laugh or cry. Of all days, it's the day where the images were more important than any other Big Breakfast Adventure. Sod's Law at it's finest. Gotta love it. So I laughed.
Confession over, a re-run was to be undertaken. And, of course, the only re-run in Big Breakfast Adventure history also happened to be for the most expensive Big Breakfast of the entire 55 Breakfast series. That would be Jenning's Corollary (aka The chance of the bread falling with the butter side down is directly proportional to the value of the carpet).
So here you have the cliff notes from my week-later re-run of the Best Steak & Eggs in Seattle:
They sat me at a table with a little chaise lounge instead of a chair. It was just lovely. I could have had a nap right there.
$5 for 3 ounces of grapefruit juice. Really?? But wow at least it was real. Holy smokes that woke me up.
Medium Steak please. People – where's the pink? It was tasty, but no pink. Rats.
The eggs were dry & had odd grey patches in them. I didn't eat them all.
The BEST hash-browns EVER. No clue what they do to get them like that. Awesome. Both times. Just awesome.
Fantastic tomato compote or ketchup or whatever they call it. Outstanding flavor. Yum.
Strange muffin. Came wrapped up in a napkin, which was cute but didn't make it look or taste any less strange.
I had Peppermint Tea (because last week's Hot Chocolate was disappointingly very blah). There were bits floating in my tea, which is just not right. $4. That's one spendy tea-bag.
The ambiance is so dignified, so refined. Just lovely. It is worth going just for the experience. And the hash-browns.
Porcelain & silverware just make it feel special.
Service was a bit slow. Folks, I know it was 6:30 am but there was hardly anyone else there. Chop chop.
HUGE KUDOS: the Fairmont will donate 10% of your total invoice to Susan G. Komen to help the fight against breast cancer if you have a Pink Ribbon Card.
- The Georgian Room & the Fairmont Hotel are just gloriously decorated, especially during the Holidays. Go swing by just to look. Very beautiful. Very grand. Very peaceful. Very distinguished. Very gracious. Very opulent. Very elegant. Look, just go already. I am running out of verbs here.
Breakfast for 1 at The Georgian – $34. Realizing you have to go back because you blew the photos – priceless.

Getting in shape isn't easy. Several factors are important to have a successful workout. A healthy diet is essential but a strong and consistent workout plan is just as important.
Gym memberships have become expensive and the struggling economy has led many people to make some budget cuts. Unfortunately, when you need to re-budget expenses, gym memberships are often on the "cut list".
However, it does not mean you have to stop exercising as there are plenty of ways to keep up your workout going without a gym membership.
Nice weather is an invitation to outdoor exercise. Parks and recreational centers offer plenty of areas for running, jogging, biking or waking. Some public places offer workout areas at no cost and you can enjoy fresh air, something generally hard to find in crowded fitness centers.
Workout kits can also be a superb product to maintain your exercise routine at very affordable prices. Some of these kits offer the best instructions for daily workouts with a variety of specific options such as weight loss, body sculpting, yoga, pilates, and much more.
Some kits consist of an exercising ball and a DVD and you will be shocked how much that can do for your body. Instructional videos will provide the exercise you need do tone and sculpt your abs, hips, and thighs.
Your entire body can benefit of these specifically designed workout kits to enhance conditioning, sculpting muscles quickly and effectively, and increasing strength as well.

Type 2 Diabetes Myths: Busted
Can you sort the truth from the fiction about type 2 diabetes? Test your knowledge now.Take the Quiz!
Diabetes is a condition in which the body cannot properly store and use fuel for energy. The body's main fuel is a form of sugar called glucose, which comes from food (after it has been broken down). Glucose enters the blood and is used by cells for energy. To use glucose, the body needs a hormone called insulin that's made by the pancreas. Insulin is important because it allows glucose to leave the blood and enter the body's cells.
Diabetes develops when the body can't make any or enough insulin, and/or when it can't properly use the insulin it makes. For some people with diabetes, the body becomes resistant to insulin. In these cases, insulin is still produced, but the body does not respond to the effects of insulin as it should. This is called insulin resistance. Whether from not enough insulin or the inability to use insulin properly, the result is high levels of glucose in the blood, or hyperglycemia.
There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. About 90% of people with diabetes have type 2 diabetes, which used to be called adult onset diabetes. However, more and more children are being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes due to the rise in obesity.
Some people do not have diabetes but also do not handle glucose as well as normal. This is called impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). Up to 40% of people with IGT will eventually develop type 2 diabetes.
In type 2 diabetes, either the pancreas does not make enough insulin and/or the body does not use it properly. No one knows the exact cause of type 2 diabetes, but it's more likely to occur in people who:
People with type 2 diabetes may not have symptoms for years or decades, but as the disease progresses and blood sugar levels rise, symptoms develop. People with type 2 diabetes may have the following signs and symptoms:
Unfortunately, many people with type 2 diabetes go undiagnosed for several years and are not diagnosed until they go to the doctor with symptoms or complications of diabetes.
High blood sugar levels (hyperglycemia) can lead to a condition called glucose toxicity. This leads to further damage to the pancreas, and the body is less able to produce insulin. Without insulin, glucose levels continue to rise to levels that can cause damage to organs such as the eyes, nerves, and kidneys. These problems are similar to the complications associated with type 1 diabetes.
People with diabetes are at greater risk for problems that involve damage to small blood vessels and nerves due to high levels of glucose in the blood. They are also at a greater risk of developing hardening of large arteries (atherosclerosis), which can result in a heart attack, stroke, or poor blood flow to the legs.
Damage to small blood vessels can affect the eyes, kidneys, and nerves. Damage to eyes, specifically the retina, is called diabetic retinopathy and is the leading cause of blindness. Damage to the kidneys, called diabetic nephropathy, can lead to kidney failure and the need for dialysis. Damage to the nerves that supply the legs and arms and gastrointestinal tract is called diabetic neuropathy. Some people with diabetes who develop peripheral neuropathy (damage to the nerves in the legs) and have poor blood flow to the legs may eventually need an amputation.
If blood glucose levels become very high, especially when there are other stresses such as an infection, people with type 2 diabetes may become confused, dizzy, and have seizures. This can lead to a condition called non-ketonic hyperglycemia-hyperosmolar coma and requires immediate medical attention.
Fortunately, the complications of diabetes can be prevented, delayed, or slowed by controlling blood glucose levels to as close to the normal range as possible.

Doubts cast over processed meat products
Consumers are not confident that processed meat products contain the species labelled.
In a survey by Leatherhead Food Research, which asked consumers to rank their confidence that the food they buy actually contains the species indicated on a scale of one to 10, meat-based chilled and frozen ready meals performed poorly, with an average score of 5.6.
Processed goods from local butchers scored highly (7.9), beating processed meat from supermarkets, which scored 6.8 on the scale.
There was more trust for unprocessed meats, with local butchers again faring well in the survey, receiving a confidence rating of 8.6 for unprocessed meat products, ahead of supermarkets and farmers markets which scored 7.5 and 7.7 respectively.
Dr Monee Shamsher, research scientist at Leatherhead Food Research, said work needs to be done to reassure consumers about what they are eating.
"An assertive, proactive and transparent response is required to tackle confidence issues for consumers. That means acknowledging the risk of food fraud, and demonstrating that decisive measures are being taken to combat the problem. Communicating this publicly is one way to show consumers that the industry has their best interests at heart, and it could also play a vital role in deterring fraudsters."

News and Excerpts
What do children love to do the most? Play! They especially love being on the playground before and after school and at recess time. It's their favorite time of day, but it's also a critical opportunity to engage in physical and social activity.So it is disturbing for many reasons that some children do not, or cannot, take part in common playground activities.
Withdrawal or exclusion from play can lead to social isolation, unhealthy choices, and low self-esteem. We know that children spend less and less time in physical activity at home, where the TV and the computer may be more attractive leisure options. This means they may go to school without the skills or practice they need in order to be active participants. But social and physical participation on the playground is important for them—to ensure healthy habits, to reduce the likelihood of childhood obesity, and to increase the likelihood that they will make friends and become part of the active social groups that form in unstructured free time. Being physically active starts early in life, and having the skills required for physical activity is critical.

Canaries searching for boss
Norwich City chief executive David McNally has confirmed to Sky Sports that the club are searching for Paul Lambert's replacement.
By Graeme Bailey - Tweet me: @skygraemebailey
Last Updated: 01/06/12 3:22pm
Norwich City chief executive David McNally has confirmed to Sky Sports that the club are searching for Paul Lambert's replacement.
Lambert offered his resignation on Thursday, amid interest from Aston Villa, but Norwich rejected his request.
However, talks are ongoing between the two clubs over compensation and once that is agreed McNally has confirmed that Lambert's resignation will be accepted.
"We are looking for a new manager, that is likely to be what we concentrate on for the next few days, weeks maybe," McNally told Sky Sports News HD.
"We are in a situation where we were approached by another club asking for permission to speak to Paul Lambert, we didn't grant permission and were very clear we wanted to keep our manager who has been incredibly successful.
"Then when it was indicated by our manager that he wanted to speak to the club the dynamics changed, and so then it is about talking to them about compensation and agreeing compensation and a time frame, and we are still in this process."
He confirmed that once compensation was agreed with Villa, then they would officially accept Lambert's resignation.
"Paul did tender his resignation which we didn't accept but that is our right, and we would look to get a conclusion on this - the lawyers will be involved and compensation has to be agreed and if it is agreed then permission would be granted and we can focus on our search for a new manager.
"We knew one day he might leave and three years is probably twice the average tenure in the Premier League and we are very grateful to Paul.
"I have to say that Paul Lambert has been fantastic for this football club over three years and will quite rightfully take his place in Norwich City history and we will always be grateful for what he has achieved."
McNally was quick to deny some reports that he had clashed with Lambert over budgets.
"We would like to keep him at the football club, he has done brilliantly for us and we think we have been for him," he said.
"There has been lots of wild speculation about a wage ceiling, but there isn't one at this club, there has been lots of wild speculation about you can't have this player or that player."
He confirmed that they would now begin their search for a new manager, but denied making an approach for Malky Mackay or Neil Lennon, two of the early favourites for the role.
"We will look at the market and it is about having a manager who is hungry and committed and we will have to check out their knowledge, skill, experience and their attitude, those are attributes that are important to us," he said.
"It is interesting I have seen it reported we have contracted them [Cardiff and Celtic], but we haven't and I would like to put that on record.
"Celtic and us get on very well but I can confirm that no approach has been made to Neil Lennon, we would go straight to them quietly and privately."

In late 2012, the California Energy Commission (CEC) published a voluntary specification recognizing quality light-emitting diode (LED) lamps intended to replace screwbase incandescent lamps in luminaires. Called the Quality LED Lamp Specification (QLS), it covers a range of omnidirectional and directional (spot and flood) lamps.
The specification is important for two reasons. First, the CEC believes it will promote adoption of products that consumers will favor for their performance, not just their energy savings. Second, while compliance with the specification is voluntary for manufacturers, California has mandated that the state's utilities may only offer residential product rebates for lamps that satisfy the performance requirements.
California set a goal of reducing residential lighting energy use by 50 percent, compared to 2007 levels, by the year 2018. To realize this goal, incandescent lamps must be virtually eradicated from use. Rather than achieve the policy through a mandate, the state is working to achieve market transformation through incentive. The challenge is to avoid some of the same pitfalls that have inhibited adoption of compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs).
"The Energy Commission wanted to create an LED lamp that people would fall in love with," said the CEC's Owen Howlett. He indicated that many consumers continue to reject CFLs because of poor color quality, limited dimming capability, slow start times and unpredictable lamp life. "We wanted to make sure that price pressure didn't drive the LED market down to the CFL level of performance, so we created a specification that people could point to and say, 'My LED is better than a CFL, and here's the proof.'"
The reasoning for the QLS is similar to that of the Energy Star voluntary product labeling program, which recognizes CFL and LED products that provide comparable performance, while saving energy, as the lamps they replace. In fact, the QLS is closely based on Energy Star, using the same metrics and test procedures.
The specification goes further in six key areas: color temperature, color binning/consistency, color rendering (including R9, a measure of how vibrant red materials look under the light), dimmability, rated life/warranty and light distribution. For example, QLS-compliant lamps must have a warm color temperature of 2,700K or 3,000K and a 90-plus color rendering index (CRI) rating, including an R9 rating greater than 50. The lamp must be capable of continuous dimming without flicker or noise from 100 to 10 percent.
The covered lamp types include the following:
• Omnidirectional A, G, B, BA, C, CA and F lamps with an E12, E17, E26 or GU24 (120V) base
• Omnidirectional JC bi-pin and wedge lamps with a G8 or G9 (120V) base
• Directional (spot) MR lamps with a G8, G9 or GU10 (120V) or GX5.3 (12V) base
• Directional (flood) R and BR lamps with an E12, E17, E26 or GU24 (120V) base
• Directional (spot) PAR20 and PAR30 lamps with an E12, E17, E26 or GU10 or GU24 (120V) base
• Directional (spot or flood) PAR38 lamps with E12, E17, E26 or GU24 (120V) base
Some downlight retrofit kits also qualify. The QLS excludes colored lamps, light strips and rope lights, linear pin-based lamps and integrated luminaires.
When the QLS was first developed in late 2012, virtually no products were available that satisfied the requirements. According to Howlett, manufacturers responded quickly, bringing eight compliant products to the market as of September 2013, with more on the way.
"A new compliant lamp becomes available every few weeks, and sources tell us that there are more to come," he said, adding that, "We're expecting that California consumers will have access to a broad range of compliant lamps through their distributors and retailers in 2014."
At this point, this includes mostly A, PAR and BR lamps.
On Nov. 8, 2012, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) issued a regulation requiring the state's utilities to rebate only LED lamps that are compliant with QLS in their residential product programs. A transition period of a year was granted, and in 2013, the three California investor-owned utilities began rebating a mix of fully compliant and mostly compliant lamps—about 20 products in all. In 2014, these utilities are expected to rebate only fully compliant products as required by the CPUC regulation.
"It's a well-known business principle that, if consumers have a positive experience with a product, they may tell their friends, but if they have a negative experience, they will definitely tell them," Howlett said. "The lamps that comply with the QLS are very good lamps. The difference in color quality and performance compared with CFLs and noncompliant LEDs is visible and tangible. These are lamps that your customers will like, and they can give you an edge over your competitors."
