This is a very short video that attempts to explain the levels of violence in Mexico, its impact on the citizenry and the U.S. role in the violence. It notes that despite the high level of deaths in Mexico, the flow of narcotics northward hasn't noticeably declined. I spotted this from a tweet by Univision, the Spanish language broadcaster, that led me to this website, but don't know anything else about the makers of the video, which whether you agree or not is quite well done.

Dear clamboslice, your stupidity knows no boundaries, or shame, as its usually the case with ignorant people.
While is true that Mexico has a ton of social issues the particular issue of drugs is an American responsibility.
Mexicans, despite all their problems, are not drug addicts, and they do not constitute a significant market. The United States of America in the other hand is the biggest narcotic market in the face of the Earth.
Indeed, Mexicans are fighting an American war, as it is the US' policy that creates an illegal narcotic market while the populations demands drugs.
Moreover, your whole argument ignores the empirical evidence, during the prohibition in the United States. Gangs that illegally sold and traded Alcohol didn't have any issues finding people to support them, was it because of the United States poor social conditions? I highly doubt it.
By your pathetic use of the word socialism, it's indeed very likely that you're a market fundamentalist, if you are, then you should know well in advance that the monetary incentives generated by a big market with plenty of demand (and relatively low supply) are more than enough to recruit troops.
In summary, you're an idiot that overestimates its intellectual capacity, as it's often the case with incompetent people, in fact, it has a name: The Dunning–Kruger effect.
Mexico itself is to blame. I have lived in Mexico.
Without tens of thousands of willing young men where would narcos get their soldiers?
Just 33% of Mexican adults have finished high school.
Many Mexicans have low incomes and yet have children they cannot even feed.
So, these young men with no education, no hope and no money are easy to recruit into crime.
Don't give me that nonsense that USA caused Sinaloa to grow poppies and make heroin.
The Mexican PRI for decades loved to blame everything on the USA. This is a tradition in Mexico, and everyone does it always.
Americans blame things on CO2, using just as bad logic. I digress.
Mexicans are at heart very liberal, or shall I say socialist. They actually feel sympathy for a guy making $5/day who has 4 kids. Why did he decide to have 4 kids? Don't ask you may be accused of being "racist".
Sadly, Mexicans unable to identify the problem will never solve it. Until those millions of young men finish killing each other (gangster v gangster, gangster v military) it will not stop.
It's sad. I once lived in Mexico and have visited for decades afterward. But the blame is always sent up to the USA and so they will never solve their own problems.
Really great video. It's sad to learn about all of that violence in Mexico, but I'm not surprised that the US is behind it all. Not to mention Fast and Furious
slap stick film with the uaual liberal slant.
nothing new here, we all know this...I am always marvelled when they say the cartels earn "between 18 and 40 million dollars a year" or whatever the stats are....there is an enormpous unknonwn factor..
thanks, dick nixon and all you profiteers, for the might War on drugs!!...thanks, mexico, for playing along so that you get your annual money stipend from the USA government to 'join the fight'
Thank you. Seems Moloch is doing well on both sides of the border with Americans doing much of the feeding.
thank you for this video displaying a schizophrenic American policy. One would have to be extraordinarily naive to think this Billion $$ market doesn't have equal counterparts including banks in the US. Just think $$$ in untaxed dollars.

Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
I recognize that [President Obama] gave a speech about how badly he wants there to be more jobs. But in it, and afterwards, you will notice that he has proposed a bunch of bullcrap that doesn't have a damn thing to do with advancing the economy or increasing employment significantly. Some of the reactions to this have accused him of incompetence, political idiocy, or general stupidity; this is exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about. Maybe he's not incompetent, or stupid, he's just socialist. He doesn't want to promote any prosperity if it means strengthening capitalist tendencies – what use is that, if it makes a bunch of people happy with less socialism? Instead he only 'wants' to promote jobs via socialist-fantasy methods. Those methods have no chance of working but that's okay because actually creating jobs isn't their main goal, their main goal is making him look like he cares and thus (perhaps) keeping him in power four more years to socialize the economy, and meanwhile (to the extent they're passed) ratcheting up the socialism again.
Most commentary about all this has this blind spot for this man's ideology. Why is it so hard to admit that he is a true-blue believer in socialism and what that means? This basically gives him a pass because at some point the 'incompetence' articles will stop and the 'he's learned from his mistakes/comeback kid' articles will start. But his ideology does not change and has never changed.
One could protest that it doesn't matter — either way, we've seen it in action and The Change Sucks, as they say. But you just know Sonic's right about the "comeback kid" articles. Sometime after the holidays, when people shopping for Christmas on plastic are getting their first bills, and the cooler temps will help shove The Second Summer Of Jobs further into history. I notice the media tends to think that way: Is three or four months enough to put us into a whole different era of time? Yes if there's a thirty- or forty-degree swing involved in the seasonal temperatures; no, if not. So sometime after the holidays the question will arise: Geez, this economy stinks on ice, what's being done about it? Too bad our current President is so incompetent…ah, but He's been learning from His mistakes! Maybe there's a ray of hope!
Me, I think President Obama is human just like the rest of us, meaning (lowercase the 'h' on purpose here) he operates with competence within a limited and defined scope of concern. The scope of concern, in this case, is P.R., and there is incompetence, by design, addressing anything outside that perimeter. He waits around for something to happen, and when it happens the task to be fulfilled is to dispense narratives. If the thing that happened is a bad thing, the narrative is going to be that it would've happened anyway and thank goodness we had the Reinvestment Act to keep it from becoming a total disaster — besides of which, it was the other guy's bad policies over the last decade that caused it to happen. If it's a good thing that happened, well then All Hail Caesar. Just like a nightmare boss. Good thing happened, well look at this wonderful thing that happened under my tutelage. Bad thing happens…oh, it's that klutz [your name here], didn't implement my policies correctly. Tried to tell 'im.
As to the central concern of Obama's socialist ideology: Yes I've had this brewing in the back of my head for awhile. It is a case of the fox guarding the chicken coop, is it not? I think the independents side with the conservatives on the desire of what is to happen next: Please let the economy recover without our having to spend any more money since we know there is a consequence to all this. In fact I perceive some of the more reasonable liberals join in that. But will Obama make it happen? Not unless there is something in it for Him; not unless, as the economy is so revived, America fundamentally changes her posturing toward a more socialist bent, like under FDR in the thirties. In left-wing-land, that is how you get into the hall of fame, by creating programs that can never be dismantled, never never not ever, that transfer wealth from people who create it to people who do not — and make it an exercise in futility to work hard. I think Sonic's right: Any prospect of healing our economy, without getting something like that sold, will be a non-starter with Obama and His administration. Even though that's exactly what The American People want & need.
Perhaps nowhere is this more clear than in the example (the post is chock full of good solid ones, read it from top to bottom) about gas prices. Nevermind the democrats' track record on gas and energy prices; just review the archives of their campaign promises. It becomes clear in short order that anyone who supports democrats in the hopes that gas prices will become affordable, or stay that way, has committed a glaring transgression in forming such a rosy prediction. The transgression is not so much having an opinion different from one of mine; it is having an opinion that is supported entirely by non-existent, made-up things.
Maybe the question should be explored, with at least as much energy as the by now routine exercise of prowling through Sarah Palin's garbage dumpsters whether she's running for something or not: How about just ask democrat office-holders and candidates whether they intend to bring gas prices down. Can we start with just that? Hey, maybe we can find a new campaign slogan for democrats next year: "Vote democrat in 2012! Keep gas prices really high!" Or, "Re-elect Obama in 2012! Necessarily bankrupt the coal industry!"
I have to disagree on the gas prices thing. The price of gas depends on a lot of factors like "supply and demand" and "massive, hidden taxes" that people simply don't understand (because if they did, the Democratic party would cease to exist). It's too easy to bullshit and obfuscate, especially since there's an easy answer right in their wheelhouse: "We'll lower gas prices by making sure those greedy oil companies — and their allies like Rick Perry!!! — pay their fair share."
I think a much better line of attack is Obama's breathtaking condescension. He doesn't care that gas prices are high, because if they are, you'll use less oil. He's doing it for your own good. Ignorant rube that you are, you don't understand that private jets and limo rides and non-hybrid cars are only for politicians, celebrities, and other important folk; for you, the hoi polloi, "green energy" is not only good enough, it's actually much better for you, because, as Mrs. Obama has noted, you're all a bunch of fatasses who need to get more exercise, and what better way to get your daily workout than walking to and from bus stops?
Like all leftists, Obama is utterly convinced that he's just plain better than you, and knows what you need better than you do or ever possibly could. And that, of course, is why the media loves him so — like all leftists, they have this weird syllogistic cast of mind that says association with (or slobbering mouth-love of) "smart" people somehow makes you smart yourself. Unless you've drunk the liberal kool-aid, though, this comes off as weird and creepy — I don't automatically become movie-star handsome just because I get Brad Pitt's autograph — and that's where the most effective line of attack is with independents, I think.
Of course, pointing out that Obama is one narcissistic s.o.b. will get us labelled racists (we're saying he's "uppity"), but since any criticism of Our Magnificent God-King is automatically racist, I couldn't give a shit… (and if personal experience counts at all, I'm seeing a lot less shit-giving when it comes to that particular charge. I think the left and the media (BIRM) have finally overplayed their hands on that one).
- Severian | 09/19/2011 @ 07:07Not sure where our point of disagreement is. It's part of their platform to make gas prices higher, they just don't talk about it. They don't talk about it because they haven't been asked about it; until the question is asked, why would they willingly comment? So we have this surreal, weird, inexplicable state of affairs where nobody knows exactly what democrats want to do with gas prices, we don't bother to find out, and nobody bothers to tell us even when it's their job.
- mkfreeberg | 09/19/2011 @ 08:15Here's an interesting take on the topic of your discussion;
Interesting when a dogma is supported by cluelessness.

A Texas nonprofit formed by Jason Posey, a former aide to Republican Congressman Steve Stockman, is sponsoring robocalls ahead of next Tuesday's primary claiming that U.S. Sen. John Cornyn "was the only Texas senator to vote for Obamacare."
The calls from the Center for the American Future are once again raising eyebrows in the Texas GOP firmament, coming days after revelations that Posey was behind a 16-page, Cornyn-thumping mailer disguised to look like a newspaper.
The suggestion that Texas' senior Republican senator supported President Obama's signature health care law appears to fly in the face in Cornyn's actual record of voting against the bill when it was enacted.
But voters across the state have been getting automated calls in recent days with the script: "Do you find it offensive that John Cornyn told [U.S. Sen.]Ted Cruz to sit down and shut up? Did you know that John Cornyn was the only Texas Senator to vote for Obamacare?"
In an email, Posey said the claim is based on Cornyn's vote last fall "to kill Cruz's filibuster of Obamacare funding." He also cited a Senate vote last year agreeing to a large spending bill containing money to implement the health care law.
Here was PolitiFact Texas on those claims: "The idea that Cornyn voted to fund Obamacare by agreeing to general appropriations is a political turnip; how those votes are interpreted probably depends on one's political prism. Beyond that, the government evidently can tap the funding it needs to implement the law regardless of congressional spending decisions. Cornyn voted against the Obamacare law when it came to be and continues to oppose it."
Posey has denied that his organization is working for Stockman, who is vying for Cornyn's seat. But some GOP operatives are questioning whether a nonprofit advocating so strongly against Cornyn shouldn't have to file independent expenditure reports, much like SuperPACs do. Said one GOP source: "I fail to see how they can claim to be issue advocacy given the content of this call."

In the Woods, Tana French
Title: In the Woods
Author: Tana French
Publication Year: 2008
Publisher: Penguin Books
Edition: TradeSource: my shelves (courtesy of Jenners)
Date Completed: January - 2013
Rating: 4/5
Recommend: yes
Most have raved about this book, yet others were left disappointed by the way it ended. I went into this one knowing that I would not see closure, and because of that I did think this book was very well done.
At the onset we know that something happened "In the Woods", in the Dublin neighborhood of Knocknaree, 25 years early to Rob Ryan and his little friends Peter and Jamie when they were about 12. Rob (Adam) was found with blood on his shoes and clinging to a tree, unable to recall what happened. His friends were never found.
Now 25 years later Rob is a detective for the Dublin Murder Squad. He and his partner Cassie Maddox are investigating a new case missing child case which turns into a homicide. The 12 year old victim was Katy Devlin who was found in the same woods where something terrible happened to Rob and his friends years earlier. Rob's past is unknown to his coworkers (except for Cassie). The case feels very similar to him and in the process of the investigation, vague memories of that day begin to surface.
As Rob and Cassie work through the case, their relationship heats up as well. Their relationship seemed very realistic and I loved the witty exchanges between the pair. It's one of those relationships that I found myself rooting for the pair. Despite their relationship Cassie begins to have her doubts about her partner. Are Rob's dreams and flashbacks a key to those lost memories or are they alcohol induced? What really happened, "In the Woods" to Rob and his friends? That is what readers will hope to learn, but this is one book that doesn't wrap everything up in a neat little bow.
There is a lot to like about this story. It's a very atmospheric psychological thriller that will have readers anxiously turning the pages. The writing is addictive and at times even funny. I love flawed characters flawed and Rob fits the bill. He is key to the story. I found myself constantly trying to get inside his head to determine what was real and what was imagined or embellished -- early on in the first few pages Rob tells the reader [ he craves the truth and....he lies]
This story should appeal to readers who enjoy dark stories and stories with secrets, truths and lies. Readers that like all the missing pieces to fit when they finish a book might me disappointed. Despite that I do recommend this first in a series. I'm looking forward to the Likeness (book #2 in the series)
19 comments:
I am listening to this one with my husband right now, and we are almost finished with it. It is an excellently rendered tale, and keeps the suspense very taut throughout the whole story. I am also prepared for the fact that the ending doesn't tie everything u neatly in a bow. Very nice review today! I can't wait to find out what comes next!
ReplyDeleteI really liked this book and I'm so glad you did, too. You make some very good points about the book.
The book really worked for me...the characters, the story-line, even the ending, I enjoyed how Tana French handled it all.
I recently read The Likeness. It was good though I didn't think it was as good as In the Woods. I'm interested in what you think about this book.
Thanks for taking the time to visit and double thanks for any comments. If you ask a question in your comments, I will try to reply to it here, or by email if your settings allow me to do so. Thank again for visiting.
(I apologize for the word verification, spammers spoil it for all sadly.)

marc71178 - President and founding member of AAAS - we don't only appreciate when he does well, but also when he's not quite so good!
Anyone want to join the Society?
Beware the evils of Kit-Kats - they're immoral apparently.
Let's not forget this system was introduced to eliminate the truly awful decision, ie batsmen that are given out LBW when they've clearly middled it, or given out caught when the ball clearly came off a part of their anatomy other than the glove. The original decision of not out was not a howler, it was difficult to be certain that ball was going to go on and hit the stumps due to how far down the pitch Bell was. However, I understand the technology debate about if we use, we trust it implicitly etc. Not sure you can do that without it being 100% accurate.
It is an issue that two different decisions can be given for the same delivery, I've said this numerous times before, depending who reviews the LBW (for example) and what the onfield umpire has judged, it may result in two different decisions, with a lot of LBW appeals. But I do like referrals that are close calls remaining with the original decision of the standing umpire. I'm not saying the incident yesterday ended correctly, but that may be down to the communication that took place between the third umpire and Billy Bowden.
http://batallday.blogspot.com/ - Cricket blog dedicated to domestic cricket.
I can only guess that there's something about the 2.5m distance that means there's too much extrapolation involved - may be something to do with what is a normal length of delivery so there's sufficient information to get a more reliable prediction?
Of course on many occasions if it's just hitting one stump then it's deemed not conclusive anyway.
Either way, the key thing to remember in this case is that if UDRS weren't in place, it wouldn't have changed the outcome so this cannot be used as a reason to not employ the UDRS.
"The future light cone of the next Indian fast bowler is exactly the same as the past light cone of the previous one"
-My beliefs summarized in words much more eloquent than I could come up with
How the Universe came from nothing
Well, in the NZ vs Zim match last night we saw what a captain does when he knows the rules.
There was a shout for LBW after the batsman had charged down the pitch and it was given not out. He was more than 2.5m down the pitch and even though it looked like it was hitting it was probably not hitting enough of middle. Vettori chose not to review it.
No outrage or moaning at all.
Instead of having an arbitrary distance, it could be expressed as a percentage for confidence that ball will hit the stumps. There is more doubt about one 1.5 m away which is flicking the outside of off than one 2.5 m away hitting halfway up middle. Then the umpire can decide what percentage he is happy with to give something out.
Who said it was arbitrary?
And with the percentage thing, that's basically what they have already.
I don't see any improvement to the system by using probabilities and confidence intervals instead of being 2.5 metres down the track. The main complaint is that 2.5 m is arbitrary. Well if you set confidence intervals of 95% then the 95% becomes arbitrary what if we are 94.9% sure that the ball will hit the stumps why draw the line at 95% why not 93%. etc etc etc...there is nothing wrong with being too far forward to be given out lbw. From my days wicket keeping I can remember the ball going through a batsmans gate and then swinging away at the last second to miss the stumps. You should not be projecting a straight line to the stumps with any certainty from a long way down the pitch because the ball does swing. Good on Billy Bowden.
1) Ross is Boss.
2) See point 1.
Leading the charge against nuances being used in posts.
Overrated XI M Bracewell, Burns, Rahane, Don Voges, Bairstow, Alecz Day, Donovan Grobelaar, Luke Ronchi, Faulkner, Dan Christian, Permaul
You get more consistency over the confidence of the decision is all. Still have to make a decision at some point but you are basing it on the evidence available. It may be that it is right to give that not out but there are other decisions which are given out just because they are 20 cm closer even though the doubt is greater (eg hitting outside of leg rather than middle). The accuracy of the system doesn't magically stop at 2.5m and it is not 100 percent inside that distance, it gradually declines with distance from stumps.

Avnet Offers Fix for Storage Sprawl
By Jessica Davis | Posted 2008-02-21 Email PrintAvnet's bundled storage solution helps VARs improve storage efficiency for their customers.
Avnet Technology Solutions has created a bundled storage solution designed to help VARs improve storage efficiency for their customers.
The operating group of distributor Avnet created the inline data deduplication solution with the midmarket customer in mind, from components from Sun Microsystems and Diligent Technologies.
The solution is designed to help find duplicated data in storage systems and eliminate it, thereby making the overall storage more efficient.
"This gives the end user the ability to store data using less space," said Kim Hoffman, director of storage solutions for the Sun Solutions Group at Avnet. "There are a lot of issues today with the cost and energy around maintaining storage. This solution eliminates duplicate storage."
Avnet says SMBs are not spooked by recession fears. For more, click here.
Hoffman's group within Sun has been working to find new go-to-market solutions for Avnet and Sun partners. With that in mind, his group performed the physical integration between the Sun hardware and software and the Diligent software. The total solution includes hardware and software installation and services.
"We are assembling it, testing it and sending it to our partners," Hoffman said. "Our partners can participate in the installation."
The data deduplication solution combines Sun's Sun Fire x4200 M2 server and a Sun StorageTek 2530 SAS storage array with Diligent's ProtecTier inline data deduplication software, according to Avnet. It offers a four-way server with 6.3TB of physical capacity. ProtecTier enables a capacity expansion of up to 25 times the physical capacity of the system, bringing the usable capacity of the system to beyond 150TB of backup data.
Separately, Avnet announced that it will add BridgeHead Software to its line card. The worldwide distribution agreement brings Bridgehead's archiving and backup software products to Avnet's channel partners, with an initial emphasis on the health care market, the company said in a prepared release

This song definitely gives me chills! I just wish the notes you gave could have been a little more specified. Are the B's B-flats or are the more like C's as in a C-sharp?
Anyways, this song is great and I am glad there are songs like this here. Especially when this song is going to be in the new Hunger Games movie based on the amazing and a favorite of mine...book.
But I know ot os hard to sometimes figure out the articulation and note arrangement. So good job anyway! : )Replies- AnonymousJanuary 27, 2012 at 8:05 PM

Excuse me? Yes this is sheet music, it's just not printable. Ever heard of playing in front of a screen?

Technically, this isn't sheet music... sheet music is a form of musical notation using modern music symbols, whereas this is just lyrics with notes. Not to say that this isn't fabulous as well!
Delete - AnonymousJune 4, 2012 at 8:49 PM
its good music but without hearing the song you dont know if there are slurs or anything with marking that would be in normal sheet music its still great!
Delete if there are not sharps or flats noted, it is a natural note. i have been using this site for music for a while and i find it really easy to play (if you know the song)
Delete- AnonymousAugust 1, 2013 at 7:48 PM
Last time I checked sheet music had a staff with a time signature and actual notes on it not just lyrics and note names on a page...

I love this song, but this isn't real sheet music! It's just the name of notes! How are we supposed to know how high or low the notes are or how long to hold them, or even I we should slur or not! it's really great but I can't call this actual sheet music

Thank you so much!I am a beginner, and I don't know how to read sheet music yet, so this is perfect! I showed this to the other flute players in the beginning band, and they all gawked! All my friends, including my band director are so proud of me! Thanks again!

To those people who said that this isnt sheet music, i agree with you but if you know this song, you should be able to know if that specific part needs to slur or not.. Plus somemore you are saying you love the song but you dont even know that parts? Shame on you...
If it is a flat it'll be Bb if it is a sharp it would be B# if it is just B it is just B natural

Hey, trumpet transposing is easy as pie. You take every note from the flute part and bring it a step up and a octave down. That line is a pain in the rear end, but hopefully this should clear everything up. http://youtu.be/nB7qGYnElQk

The "when all those shadows almost killed your light" there's more of a slur of "F# E D in "killed you light" then just "F# D". That's the only thing that really wasn't like the recording, though.

My band teacher would have called this "monkey see, monkey do." If you already know the tune (count) of the music and don't read music well, you can follow the notes -- A, B, C, etc., and play along perfectly with the music, without counting out all those dreaded, dotted eighth notes lol. If you don't already know the tune, then I can see why you would be lost.

The Movie Business Fights Back
Based on his recent book, Free Ride, author Robert Levine explains why it may soon become easier for consumers to buy content on the Internet than steal it.
The movies are still big—it's the screens that got small. Most of us still talk about the movie business as one that takes place in theaters, where films "open" on a certain day, take in money at a "box office," and "play" for a number of weeks. If this were the movie business, it would be doing pretty well: U.S. box office revenue hit a record $10.65 billion in 2009, dipped slightly in 2010, and should stay at about that level in 2011. And international figures show the same thing. If you look at those numbers, it's hard to understand why the studios and guilds are so worried about illegal downloading.
Like so much else in Hollywood, however, the relative health of the film business is just an alluring illusion. The media's focus on who saw what last weekend is a relic of the movie business that existed before the rise of television, when a far larger portion of the American populace went to theaters regularly to see shows that included cartoons and newsreels, along with feature films. These days, most movies take in only around 30 percent of their total revenue in theaters. The rest of the money they make comes from a series of small screens—DVD sales and rentals, network television and pay cable rights, and, to a much lesser extent, various forms of downloads and streaming video. And if you look at these numbers, it's much easier to see why the entertainment industry is scared.
Since 2004, revenue from sales and rentals of DVD and Blu-ray discs has fallen by a quarter, and the decline seems to be accelerating. Networks and cable channels are more reluctant to pay in advance for rights to films, especially independent ones. To some extent, this isn't a surprise: New formats always replace old ones. But the online movie market seems to have stalled out, and illegal downloading is a major part of the problem. And although Hollywood has some promising plans to make online content more appealing—including the next-generation digital format called UltraViolet (more about that later)—it faces an uphill battle if movies can be downloaded illegally with no more effort than it takes to buy them legitimately.
Silicon Valley executives say Hollywood is afraid of progress—the industry has worried that new technologies would destroy the market for their products since the rise of television. It should be noted that they weren't entirely wrong. In 2010, 1.3 billion movie tickets were sold in the U.S., compared with 4.7 billion sold in 1947, to a smaller population. But television also created a valuable new market for movies. By 1980, before cable and VCRs really took off, studios took in three-quarters as much from sales to network television as they did from theaters, according to Edward Jay Epstein's seminal The Big Picture: The New Logic of Money and Power in Hollywood. It seems quaint now, but back in the '70s the "network television premiere" of a hit like Star Wars was a big deal.
Over the last few decades, media history repeated itself. Universal Studios famously sued Sony, before the latter company acquired Columbia Pictures, for making a VCR that made it easy for consumers to infringe film copyrights. Gradually, this device also cut into the theatrical audience, as consumers began to record films on television, then buy and rent them. But the videocassette did create a massive new market. Suddenly, studios weren't just in the business of making movies—they were in the business of making more money from those they had already made. By 1995, according to Epstein, studios brought in almost twice as much revenue from home video sales and rentals as they did from theaters.
Cable created similar opportunities. The hundred-channel world decisively doomed the old one, in which most consumers went to theaters regularly. But those hundred channels also required content, which often came in the form of films. Ted Turner's cable empire needed movies so much that he bought MGM for its library. AMC, now a critics darling with shows such as Mad Men and Breaking Bad, began life as American Movie Classics—a market for old films.
The development of the DVD followed the same pattern. By the time DVD sales hit their peak in 2004, studio executives could be forgiven for seeing theatrical releases as incredibly expensive marketing campaigns for the more profitable home video business. By then, DVDs generated twice as much revenue as ticket sales. And studios kept more of that money, since they got a higher percentage from stores than they did from theaters. Theatrical showings, and the advertising campaigns that went with them, were still vital for creating audience demand, but the silver disc replaced the silver screen as Hollywood's main source of income.
The Internet seems to have stopped this virtuous cycle: A decade and a half after the Internet became mainstream, it still has no functioning market for entertainment. This was not how it was supposed to be. Back in the '90s, when Al Gore was talking up the "information superhighway," he thought it would help the U.S. economy partly by creating a global market for American movies and music. The Internet has always been a valuable platform for movie marketing—it's hard to imagine a time before studios posted trailers, let alone websites, for upcoming films. And to judge by online traffic, Internet users are certainly avid movie downloaders. The only problem is that few of these movies are paid for.
That doesn't mean movies can't be purchased, of course—most are sold on iTunes, while some are also available in streaming video as part of a Netflix subscription. But the number of films acquired legally pales in comparison to illegal downloads. Rampant illegal downloading puts pressure on studios to trade analog dollars for digital dimes—isn't it better to sell a movie for $3 than to get nothing at all? An environment in which paying for products has essentially become optional is the very definition of a broken market.
Fixing that market means making legal commerce more convenient than stealing, both by limiting the second and encouraging the first. And, after some delay, it looks like that's exactly what the industry is doing. The proposed PROTECT IP Act of 2011, which is meant to crack down on "rogue sites," will not eliminate illegal downloading. But by giving the U.S. government power to seize domain names in certain situations, it will help force illegal sites to keep changing names and addresses—and thus become harder for consumers to find. Just as bootleg DVD sales are limited to shady street corners in the real world, stealing would be inconvenient online.
Before the end of 2011, studios will also introduce UltraViolet, a new digital format that uses cloud computing to allow consumers to download or stream movies almost anywhere. Consumers will be able to establish accounts for films they have purchased rights to, then watch them from any UltraViolet device connected to the Internet, including computers, video game consoles, and Blu-ray players that can go online. The organization behind the project, the Digital Entertainment Content Ecosystem— DECE for short—includes all the major studios but Disney and most major technology companies and retailers with the exception of Apple.
Like ATMs, UltraViolet devices would check in with a central database that tracks who can "withdraw" what content. (UltraViolet films will come with a limited number of downloads, as well as streaming rights.) Like ATMs, UltraViolet providers that stream movies to consumers will be able to charge their own service fees. (Hotels, for example, would be able to charge a few dollars to let consumers access the films they have rights to.) Also like ATMs, UltraViolet devices should be able to make all of this so easy for consumers that they barely notice the complexity of the underlying system.
If UltraViolet works, it will offer the flexibility and elegance of Apple's iCloud system. It would have a level of convenience that rogue sites couldn't match. Right now, if you wanted to start watching a movie at home one night and finish it at a hotel the next, you would have to make sure you had the DVD or the device you had downloaded the movie to. With UltraViolet, you would be able to sign into the system and pick up right where you left off—without having to carry anything.
How many consumers find this convenience worth paying for will depend partly on UltraViolet and partly on whether rogue sites can be made harder to find online. If that can be done—through some combination of the PROTECT IP Act, litigation against online locker services like Hotfile, and current enforcement strategies—buying movies and television shows online would become a far more appealing experience. It could become a story we've all heard before: The current market for movies is threatened by a new technology that ultimately delivers a new market of its own.
We asked a writer to search the Web and report on how shockingly easy it is to find illegal films. They could even be yours.
Internet theft has clearly had a serious economic impact on mid-budget and large studio movies, but it's independent films that may be damaged the most.
Cloud computing presents an encouraging new business model for the entertainment industry, but it will require vigilance to protect intellectual property and compensation.
In July, U.S. Immigration and Customs agents seized seven major websites. Here's the blow-by-blow account of how it went down.
Internet theft is a global problem. Some European countries have responded with innovative laws that could become the model for fighting international piracy.
With Internet theft and online crime on the rise, deep packet inspection is one effective tool to protect rights and intellectual property. Without it, the Internet as we know it could crash.

Another season, another WTA comeback rumor! This one's recycled: Martina Hingis is hinting she wants to return to tour. . .or is she?
"I cannot imagine a life without tennis," Martina Hingis told the Berlin Kurier newspaper on Sunday before beating Lindsay Davenport, 6-4, 6-4, in an exhibition match outside Berlin. "It's still so much fun for me. I'd like to play more exhibition matches and see what happens. Past that, I just don't know at the moment."
She tried to back out of this statement after the match, saying: "I don't want to train every day anymore, but I would like to play more exhibitions. I have already had offers from the USA."
Sure Martina. It's obvious that "I just don't know at the moment" means "I just don't know until I get that French Open wild card." (Roland Garros is the one Major singles title that's eluded her, despite two finals appearances – very similar to Justine Henin's history at Wimbledon. Hmmm)
Martina had this to say about the return of Belgians:
"I think the women's game is somewhat monotonous at the moment. The young girls all play the same way, whereas Justine and Kim are successful because they vary their game."
And who else was known for her variety and court sense?
Hingis retired with foot problems in 2003, after winning 5 Major singles titles. She returned to the sport in 2006, winning three WTA tour titles – including a mixed doubles trophy at the Australian Open – but was soon stopped when she tested positive for (a very small) amount of cocaine at the 2007 Wimbledon. She decided to retire rather than fight a 2 year ban from the sport, which expired in September, 2009. Hingis is now 29 years old.
Her exo opponent, Lindsay Davenport, was more clear in her intentions: "If I play again it will only be at selected events and only then for fun."
Just don't call it a comeback, 'kay?

text: Don't Want Your Car Stolen? Buy A Prius And You're Good To GoPatrick George11/24/12 3:00pmFiled to: Car Crimestolen carsPriusToyota PriusFbGettypic541EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkMan, nothing ruins your day like getting your car stolen. I hate when that happens to me! I can't get to work or run errands, and then I have to take hours out of my schedule to go on a vengeance quest against the people who stole it. So inconvenient.AdvertisementThankfully, there is now a car that is practically un-stealable: the 2008 through 2010 Toyota Prius. Not because of some advanced anti-theft technology, you see, but because thieves don't want it.According to this report in Bloomberg, one in 606 Priuses from the years 2008 through 2010 as of late June, compared with one in 78 of all vehicles for those model years. Here's why:Advertisement"It's a one-model car; the parts on it won't fit anything else but a Prius," John Abounader, executive director of the International Association of Auto Theft Investigators, said in a phone interview. "If you use a Camry, for instance, the engine might fit in another car. On a Prius, the engine is so different because they're hybrid."See, thieves tend to target cars for their parts, which is why Camry and Accord are almost always at the tops of those "most stolen cars" lists. The Prius' unique parts make it a less desirable target. The theft numbers are shockingly low considering how popular the Prius is. California had the most stolen Prius models, with 1,062 thefts. Florida came in second, with 127, followed by New York, with 111, Bloomberg says.More good news: the recovery rate for a stolen Prius is 96.7 percent, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau report cited by Bloomberg. Maybe the Prius isn't so bad after all.SponsoredHat tip to Automobile!Photo credit Getty ImagesReply54 repliesLeave a reply

Welcome to Praia da Rocha Uncovered! We're all about 2017 Praia da Rocha holidays so you can plan and book with confidence! Get all you need to know about this lively all year round resort in western Algarve, Portugal, with useful tourist information, hotels, beaches, events, food and drink, things to do and more!
Praia da Rocha is the main beach in Portimão but it is also a bustling holiday resort in its own right. It became a tourist centre at the end of the 19th century, when it was the favoured summer resort of families from, not only Portimão, but also the rest of the Algarve and Andalusia; and in the winter with English visitors. The Hotel da Bela Vista with its Belle Epoque architecture, dates from this time and stands out amongst the modern buildings along the beach front.
The beach itself is vast, even in the middle of summer there is always plenty of space. The avenue, Tomás Cabreira, which runs along the top of the beach, is full of restaurants, cafes, and shops and is particularly lively at night with a variety of bars, and clubs to choose from. At the end of the avenue is the Fortress of Santa Catarina de Ribamar, which was part of Portimão's defences against corsairs and pirates. It was built in the 17th and 18th centuries and gives a wonderful view of the beach and the cliffs on one side and the marina on the other.
The accommodation in Praia da Rocha is mostly in hotels and high-rise apartment blocks, but they are well spaced out and close to all the local amenities, and those facing the sea will have wonderful views.
The western end of Tomás Cabreira avenue was vastly improved in 2006, with new paved and landscaped pedestrian areas with seating to relax and enjoy the sunshine! The improvements then continued along the rest of the avenue and it is now looking really good, with new paving and trees, and car access restricted along a lot of the road, making it safer for pedestrians.
Praia da Rocha is an all-year-round resort, but with a seasonal population; in summer it is absolutely packed to the rafters and in winter (New Year aside) it is utterly chilled and popular with older generations who want to enjoy walks and wining and dining in warmer climes.
Praia da Rocha is ideal for anyone who wants to be close to a fantastic beach, have plenty of places to wine and dine or party until late. There is also a casino along the avenue that hosts a show every night, with dinner and dancing if you like, apart from the oportunity to have a flutter on the tables! You really wouldn't need to leave the resort, so no worries about hiring a car if you don't want to. If you want to wander around the main shopping centre then Portimão is only a short walk or bus ride away.
There are all sorts of water sports available on Praia da Rocha, and a variety of boat trips are available from Portimão river front (along from the marina at the eastern end of the beach). A lot of events go on throughout the year - fantastic fireworks and live music to celebrate New Year, powerboat racing or jet-skiing on the river, and lots of beach sports and events during the summer.
If you want to travel a little further afield then there are lots of things to do within easy reach of Praia da Rocha. The water park, Slide and Splash, is in Lagoa - just a short distance away and Zoomarine near Albufeira isn't far either. It has outdoor pools (so don't forget your swimming gear) as well as the dolphins, sealions and birds of prey shows. We musn't forget golf - one of the Algarve's big attractions - there are several excellent courses within very easy reach of Praia da Rocha, including the championship course of Penina and newer courses near Silves (one designed by Nick Faldo and the other by Christy O'Connor jnr).
To get a taste of inland Algarve then pay a visit to Silves - an historic town with a large, well preserved, Moorish castle. It is situated on the banks of the Arade river, so one way of getting there is by boat from the river front at Portimão. The trip normally gives you about an hour (because of the tides) to have a look around before the return journey. It is very picturesque and the castle is the largest in the Algarve - well worth seeing as it's really quite spectacular.
If you are a serious shopper, then take a trip to Algarve Shopping Mall near Guia - you can always leave the menfolk on one of the couches in the sunshine while you browse the shops! There is also a food hall with a variety of restaurants and 'fast food' outlets to keep them occupied! The mall is easily reached along the A22 motorway - take the turning for Albufeira/Guia, then follow the signs for Guia and the mall is on the left over the road bridge.
Praia da Rocha is centrally located for lots of the attractions the Algarve has to offer but also has plenty to keep you entertained without leaving the resort!

Dove Original Anti-Perspirant Deodorant
This is the deodorant that I always go back to. If it wasn't for the really bad white marks that it leaves all over my clothes it'd be the perfect deodorant. I highly recommend this for anyone who has sensitive armpits and struggles to find an effective deodorant.
The version I always go back to is the cream stick. It's super gentle on my very sensitive armpits and never causes sensitivity or irritation. In addition to that, it's very effective and works even on 42 degree summer days.
Dove says: It's the deodorant with the beauty ingredient proven to improve the look and feel of underarm skin: 1/4 moisturising cream. Effective protection, beautiful result.
As I mentioned earlier, the only thing I don't like about Dove Original deodorant is the marks that it leaves on my clothes. Because it's a cream formula it leaves white deposits on the inside armpit (is that what they're called) of my clothes. This means that I have to spot treat this area every time I do the washing. But, I'm willing to do that because this deodorant is so amazing.
Would I buy this again? Yes.
Ingredients: cyclomethicone, aluminum zirconium tetrachlorohydrex gly, stearyl alcohol, c12-c15 alkyl benzoate, ppg-14 butyl ether, hydrogenated castor oil, perfume, dimethicone, polyethylene, helianthus annus, steareth-100, bht.

Credit card maximizers make carrying multiple cards their hobby, using this one for groceries and that one for travel, juggling due dates and rewards categories. But most people prefer to spend their time on other things.
If the idea of chasing credit card rewards as a pastime doesn't appeal to you, using just one credit card is a reasonable choice. Here are the benefits of carrying only one card, and how to choose it wisely.
There are several good reasons to simplify.
—When you're shopping: People who carry multiple credit cards have a decision to make every time they reach for their wallet. If you're carrying only one card, that decision is a lot simpler.
—When you're paying the bill: Paying bills takes time. Even if a credit card issuer offers automatic payments, it still takes time to set it up, time to make sure you have enough money in your account and time to check in to make sure things are running smoothly. Doing that for just one credit card account instead of several sounds downright restful.
—When you're trying to manage spending: "If you're somebody who's really out of control when you have credit cards, then having many credit cards is almost like an alcoholic in bar," said Tracy Becker, president of North Shore Advisory in Elmsford, New York, which provides credit-building and monitoring services to individuals and businesses. Using a single card helps some people monitor their spending more easily and avoid trouble, she said.
—When you're worried about fraud: Thieves who gain access to credit card information often make small purchases at first to see whether a card gets shut down, Becker said. It's easier to monitor fewer accounts for fraudulent charges, so using only one card makes it easier to catch fraud more quickly.
Alas, there is no "best" credit card that is right for everyone. It depends on your spending habits, whether you habitually carry a balance and what kind of rewards you find most useful.
—If you carry a balance: Credit card debt is expensive, so if you don't always pay things off in full every month, prioritize a low interest rate above every other card feature. When you carry a balance on a rewards card, the interest eats up much, if not all, of the value of your rewards.
—If you travel frequently: Travel credit cards offer good rewards only if you travel often enough to use those rewards. If you don't, a cash back card is the better option. Still, the extra conveniences that come with some travel cards, like free checked bags, can make these cards worthwhile even to occasional travelers.
—If you spend a lot in one or two budget areas: Some rewards credit cards offer higher returns on things like groceries, gas or restaurants. Look for a card that will reward the way you spend.
—If you just want to keep things simple: The simplest option is a card that pays the same amount -- in cash, points or miles -- on every purchase, with no limit on the rewards you can earn. These are sometimes called flat-rate credit cards.
Read Full Article—If you're concerned about fees: An annual fee on a credit card can be worth it, as long as the rewards are high enough to outweigh the fee. Premium travel cards, in particular, have high fees but generous rewards. For a good no-fee card, your best bet is probably a cash back card.
Before you get excited and pare your credit cards down to just one, think about your credit score. Closing older accounts reduces the amount of credit you have available, and lowers the average age of your accounts. Both of those things can lower your score. Becker said having more credit cards also demonstrates to lenders that you can handle lots of credit.
"It is possible to have a very high credit score with only one card, but not as likely," Becker said.
But that's no reason to carry more cards than you want to. If your older accounts don't charge annual fees, keep them open, but leave the cards at home. Becker recommends putting just one recurring bill, like a gym membership, on an older account and then setting up an automatic payment so you pay on time. If your unused cards charge annual fees, though, close them. Your credit score will recover.

Over the past week, Marvel has released a bevy of promo videos for the upcoming Avengers Blu-ray pack.
The Blu-ray will include hours of new content, mostly in the form of interviews and behind-the-scenes footage, but there will also be some deleted scenes and artwork included (full list below). Here are just a few clips from some of the featurettes.
The first one discusses Samuel L. Jackson and his character, Nick Fury. The cast and crew seem to think a lot of the famous actor's skillset:
This one takes a closer look at Captain America and Hulk, and the actors' relationship with those characters
Here is a brief look at how the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helecarrier shots were done:
This final clip focuses on Robert Downey Jr. and Iron Man.

It looks like there will be enough internal lauding on the disk to fill an afternoon, but there is more. We've also got this interesting alternate opening sequence, which would have set up the film to be told in flashback during a mission debriefing for Agent Hill, played somewhat poorly by Cobie Smulder. Glad they didn't go with this one, honestly:
This deleted scene gives us a compelling look at the odd, 'overly-wise security guard' character who only got a couple lines in the film, and we can see originally had a bit more to say, along with some character development for Bruce Banner:
The full list of special features for The Avengers Blu-ray pack is thus:
The Marvel's The Avengers Blu-ray combo pack hits shelves on September 25th, 2012. It can be preordered on Amazon, though a hardcore collector might want to wait for the full Phase One briefcase. Unfortunately, it's been delayed for an unknown length of time by a legal dispute over the briefcase design and can no longer be preordered.
