Dear Rotolight: The Internet Never Forgets Your Censorious Past, Even If You Deny It
from the look-at-that... dept
In this specific case, the video was not removed for copyright infringement reasons as has been widely reported. Rotolight received external advice with respect to this particular video that it was potentially misleading and unrepresentative. This advice resulted in the only request the company has made to have a video removed from any video sharing website in the last 3 years.As Popehat notes, either Rotolight or Vimeo is lying here, and it's hard to believe that it's Vimeo. If they didn't send a copyright takedown, then why don't they say what they actually sent? Clearly, Vimeo received some sort of notification.
However, two more tidbits have popped up since then, thanks to the lovely internet. First, we have Jeepers Media pointing out to us that Rotolight's claim above that this is the "only request the company has made to have a video removed from any video sharing website in the last 3 years" does not appear to be true. CheesyCam has the story of how it had posted a YouTube video... and Rotolight had (you guessed it) taken it down:
While CheesyCam doesn't link to the original post, it appears to be here. Oops. So, clearly not the first. Also, a commenter on Popehat points out that it's highly unlikely that Rotolight did not understand copyright or the nature of DMCA notices (or the difference between copyright and trademark), in part because the founder/president of Rotolight also runs one of the largest music publishing/producing businesses in the UK -- and his wife is an entertainment lawyer who wrote a book about copyright that was published not too long ago.
That's total bull, because this has actually been a practice of RotoLight for at least the last two years. Two years ago, I posted up a video about one user and a UFO camping light who may have mentioned he was making his own DIY RotoLight. Obviously it was a UFO camping LED light, and because of the camparisons, RotoLight commented on this blog and admitted to taking down the users YouTube video:"FYI, the YouTube Video on which your article relates has been removed due its to defamtory nature, breach of our Registered Trademark and misleading information".
Whoa wait a minute! The DMCA cannot be used for Trademark claims. That was two years ago, and who knows how many other YouTube or Vimeo videos were taken down in that time frame, but I can tell you the recent Den Lennie attempt was not the first. The fact that they are now playing dumb and backtracking as if this was the only DMCA they filed is a load of crap.
So, um, that's nice that you're a small business and you want to rehabilitate your reputation and all... but it might help to start out by not lying about the claim that this was the first such video you've taken down -- or about the nature of the takedown. As they say, it's often not the original bad deed that gets you in the end... but the attempted coverup.

May 6, 2009 --
She's the world's oldest pooch, with 21 years under her collar, but she never learned how to beg.
"She's independent. If she didn't want to do something, she had a look she would give, and she usually got her way," Long Islander Denice Shaughnessy joked of her aging dachshund, Chanel, whose 147th birthday -- in people years -- is today. Chanel -- named the oldest dog by Guinness World Records last year -- is taking a rare trip from her Port Jefferson Station home to mingle with canine buddies invited to her Manhattan birthday party. The old girl's red hair faded to white a long time ago. Her cataracts force her to wear special doggie glasses and her bones feel the cold. Her home is kept at a constant 72 degrees. She eats boiled chicken with whole-wheat pasta, and a specially selected soft treat designed for her ancient teeth. And she spends her days relaxing at home, only taking walks in the summer. "She used to run three miles with me every day," said Shaughnessy, a high-school principal's secretary who adopted Chanel from a Virginia shelter as a 6-week-old pup. "She still enjoys a walk, but now she's carried for a lot of it." Chanel took the title as the oldest dog last spring when a 28-year-old beagle from Virginia died.

Hey everyone! Welcome to the first Weekend Reading of 2013! Grab some hot cocoa, your favorite blanket, and settle in for our weekly selection of only the finest stories. This week, I'll be reading to you in my best James Earl Jones voice.
Being 26 years of age and lacking an understanding of advanced mathematics, astrophysics, alien physiology, and the like, my odds of one day going into outer space are dropping precipitously every passing moment. If I had to pick a second dream destination, it would be the Antarctic. Its featureless vistas, punctuated by the occasional bizarre ice formation, truly look like they belong on another planet.
Many great stories take place on the frozen wastes, where the howling winds and stinging ice strip human relationships to their bare bones. In John Carpenter's The Thing a group of Antarctic researchers are infiltrated by a shape-shifting alien that slowly whittles their ranks, as well as their trust in one another. Another favorite of mine is in the latter half of Ursula K. LeGuin's The Left Hand of Darkness. At one point, the two protagonists must journey for 70 days across a barren and treacherous ice sheet on the Winter planet Gethen. Though their journey is miserable, the isolation fosters a bond between them like neither has ever experienced.
I was moved in a similar way by David Roberts' account, published in National Geographic, of the Australian Douglas Mawson's ill-fated 1912 Antarctic expedition. Mawson set out with two other individuals, one of whom was lost down a hidden crevice. The other traveled with him until he succumbed to frostbite and malnourishment. Though it was obvious that his companion was doomed, Mawson would not abandon him. He wrote in his journal: "If he cannot go on 8 or 10 m[iles] a day, in a day or two we are doomed. I could pull through myself with the provisions at hand but I cannot leave him." There's a lot of gruesome stuff in the account, but that was the moment that moved me most.
I'm sure you're all anxious to read more, so without further delay, I present your Weekend Reading!
Visiting the Antarctic might not even be an option in 20 years. Sam Moulton tags along with environmental photographer James Balog as he attempts to convince the world that things are changing, and not necessarily for the better. Outside.
"Like the dust cameras, the tree and beetle cams are part of Balog's larger mission to document what he calls 'the Anthropocene in action.' Anthropocene means 'new man,' and the term was first used in a geological context in 2000, when Paul Crutzen, a Nobel Prize–winning atmospheric chemist from Holland, coined it at a scientific conference. The idea is that the Holocene epoch of geologic time, which began around 12,000 years ago, has ended. Sometime in the past few hundred years, it was supplanted by a new time frame called the Anthropocene. This concept is being looked at seriously by geologists; for it to fully take hold, experts will have to conclude that human activities—like population growth and the burning of fossil fuels—will be clearly discernible in the rock record of the future. "
It's been over 100 years since Douglas Mawson traversed the Antarctic, but his story remains one of the most horrifying survival tales ever told. David Roberts, National Geographic.
"The food was almost gone, and his own physical state was deplorable, with open sores on his nose, lips, and scrotum; his hair coming out in clumps; and skin peeling off his legs. And he still had a hundred miles to go. 'I am afraid it has cooked my chances altogether,' Mawson wrote in his diary. But he added, 'I shall do my utmost to the last.' Using only the serrated blade of his knife, he cut the sledge in half. Then he fashioned a makeshift sail by sewing Mertz's jacket to a cloth bag. Three days after Mertz's death, Mawson discovered to his horror that the soles of his feet had completely detached from the skin beneath them, which spurted pus and blood. He taped the dead soles to his feet, and put on six pairs of wool socks. Every step thereafter was an agony."
Allen, Texas, is a town where football is Lord and the children learn to tackle before they learn to walk. But the foundation of their existence may be threatened by the encroachment of reality. Bryan Curtis, Texas Monthly.
"Allen, like much of the country, decided that it was going to try to save football from modernity. It was going to see if what was primal and brutal about the game could exist in an era of science and safety and lawsuits and attachment parenting. I wanted to see this struggle. I wanted to go to a city where kids practiced football three times a week and played once a week while Mom watched from a lawn chair; a place where they had the best protective gear and the best doctors; where the game was coached the right way and played exquisitely well—even by kids. I wanted to see the sport trying to survive in our new, wised-up universe."
Reashat Mati has been punching since he was born. Now 13, he holds titles in every form of unarmed combat. Charles P. Pierce, Grantland.
"In the ever-expanding world of mixed martial arts, Reshat Mati, now 13 years old and many times a champion in several different disciplines, all of them involving punching something (or someone) more substantial than the air, is Bryce Harper. He's RG3. He's Jabari Parker. Lean and quick-handed, and quick-footed, for all that, with a taste for mixing it up, Reshat is a genuine phenom in a phenom of a sport. Yet, in many ways, his is the oldest immigrant story of them all. It is the story lived by thousands of Hispanic immigrants and, before them, by the Irish and Germans and Jewish immigrants who poured into the tenement ghettos of the big cities and, at almost the same time, by the African Americans who came north from tenant farming and sharecropping, immigrants from one part of their own country to another. Sooner or later, you find a way to punch your way out of these circumstances."
Every basketball player dreams of the 100-point game, but those who've achieved the dream have found themselves strangely cursed. Justin Heckert, Sports Illustrated.
"Jack became an immediate curiosity. After the game he answered questions in more than a dozen interviews, surrounded by people from the sports information office at Grinnell. Anyone who called the office that night got a little piece of him, a small taste of what he was feeling; he barely had time to talk to his parents, who waited for him to take a break. He did interviews the next morning and interviews that afternoon. He talked to Jimmy Kimmel and Good Morning America and gave his game socks to The Dan Patrick Show. He did interviews after the Pioneers' next game, against William Penn on Nov. 25, when all he could offer everyone watching was 21 points. He got autograph requests and asked his coach what XOXO meant, and his coach told him, hugs and kisses. His parents began to fear that the media storm would consume him, change him; so they asked his coaches to make sure he was eating and sleeping and still going to class."


text: The Mummy Megaphone is a gag gift for parents that bills itself as a "sure-fire way to get everyone to listen." It has a speak mode and a siren mode, can project over 150 metres and is allegedly weather and baby-resistant. With an adjustable volume range of 5 to 10 Watts however, it's almost completely useless. Kids are yelly; when I was young, I'm pretty sure I'd hit 10 Watts in a normal conversation. You know what would be more effective? Holding up a paddle. That always got me to listen right quick. [Nerd Approved]

This impressive work from acclaimed Japanese director Hayao Miyazaki represents a significant departure from traditional anime. Foregoing the gritty storylines, extreme violence, and adult content found throughout many anime, Miyazaki's works borrow as much from fairy tales as they do from science fiction. Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind is no exception. Centuries after war has devastated the earth, Princess Nausicaa leads the people of the Valley of the Wind. Feuding clans fight with planes and tanks as well as swords in a world that is both primitive and futuristic. In addition to her people's conflicts with other factions, Nausicaa must also contend with the insects of the jungle including the Ohmu, a race of giant, intelligent bugs that poisons the surrounding atmosphere - and is spreading rapidly. The setting of this 1984 animation owes much to the post-apocalypse genre spawned by Mad Max and other films, and the political subplot is often compared to Frank Herbert's Dune. However, the heroine here has more in common with the female protagonists of the Disney musicals such as Pocohantas and Mulan; Nausicaa is more concerned with harmony and communication than with conquest and revenge. Sympathetic to the Ohmu, she learns she must approach them with understanding to achieve peace and restore the dying world. This film is beautifully animated and written, and the moral to this ecological fable is difficult to miss.~ Jonathan E. Laxamana, All Movie Guide
Director: Hayao Miyazaki
Writer: Hayao Miyazaki
Cast: Sumi Shimamoto, Mahito Tsujimura, Hisako Kyôda, Goro Naya and Ichiro Nagai

text: Ugly Duckling is a hip hop group that formed in 1993 in Long Beach, California. Ugly Duckling's members include Dizzy Dustin (Dustin McFarland), Young Einstein (Rodney Pleasant Jr) and Andy Cooper. The group's style is alternative hip hop, influenced especially by old school performers such as the Native Tongues. Most of their songs follow the creed that hip hop is about having fun and often mock the clichéd gangsta emcees who dominate the mainstream. An example of this can be heard in the song "A Little Samba" and in "Smack," in which they rhyme about the enormous wealth about which mainstream emcees brag, and the ridiculous nature of their possessions, such as gold name plates on their cars, pet sharks, and jetting off to Bermuda on private planes. Andy Cooper professes himself to be a follower of Christ and a Christian, as does Young Einstein on his Facebook page. The band's songs often incorporating Christian themes such as love, forgiveness and rejection of worldly values. Some songs include lyrics pertaining to the biblical End Times. Both Young Einstein and Dizzy Dustin have Facebook pages where fans are encouraged to keep up-to-date with the band's antics, tours and music releases. Young Einstein daily posts inspirational phrases he collects from the internet onto his Facebook page for people to read and comment on.

Don't Splurge On a Pan You Use Once a Year: 5 Roasters Under $50
With Thanksgiving a little less than three weeks away, it's time to start talking roasters. For the most part, roasting pans come out of our cupboards once or twice a year for the big holiday dinners, so given that we'd rather not spend $150 on one. Instead, here are five budget-friendly picks that'll get the job done.
What To Look For
The main thing you often sacrifice going with a more affordable roasting pan is weight and thickness. High-end roasting pans usually boast better construction and more even heating throughout, while super cheap pans feel light, flimsy, and are prone to hot spots and warping.
Here we're looking for something in between: heavy enough to make gravy on the stovetop and to withstand warping, and large enough to accommodate a decent sized turkey. It should be under $50 but better than the super cheap $10 options.
Other useful features to look for in a roasting pan:
- Stationary handles (not foldable): As Emma, who has a pan with foldable handles says, "It seems like that would be awesome, but it's so hard to get them to unfold when you're wearing heavy oven mitts and are standing in front of the hot oven trying to pick up a huge turkey." This is a personal preference, though, and a feature you may have to give up in favor of your preferred price.
- Around 16 inches long: A roaster that measures at least 16 inches is a good size to go for. This will fit a 15 to 18 lb turkey. However, note that the measurement in the product title usually refers to the interior space. The total measurement including the handles is often larger than this, so be sure to measure your oven before you buy to make sure the pan will fit!
Our 5 Budget-Friendly Roasting Pan Picks
- Martha Stewart Collection Stainless Steel 15-inch Roaster with Roasting Rack, $30 at Macy's (on sale)
- Calphalon Hard-Anodized Nonstick Roaster with Rack, $49.99 from Target (Faith's top pick!)
- Oneida Nonstick Roasting Pan with Rack, $4o from Amazon
- Le Chef Professional Nonstick 17.5-inch Roasting Pan with Rack, $37 from Overstock
- Granite Ware Oval Roaster, $30 from Wayfair
What roasting pan are you using this year?

DOVER — More than two dozen Republican lawmakers are banding together to form New Hampshire's first "religious freedom" caucus, a group aiming to stop government from interfering with the rights of people of faith.
DOVER — More than two dozen Republican lawmakers are banding together to form New Hampshire's first "religious freedom" caucus, a group aiming to stop government from interfering with the rights of people of faith.
Rochester state Rep. Warren Groen is serving as the spokesman for the New Hampshire religious freedom caucus. The group has 27 members, including Groen's brother, Sen. Fenton Groen, and Deputy House Speaker Pam Tucker, of Greenland.
Other House members in the group hail from Farmington, Milford, Nashua, Londonderry, Auburn, Bedford and Manchester, among other communities.
The New Hampshire group is part of a national initiative being unveiled today by the Ethics and Public Policy Center, based in Washington, D.C.
The center is hoping to galvanize lawmakers behind a pro-religion agenda through the formation of caucuses in all 50 states by the end of 2013. The program is intended to preserve religious expression in public life and defend the ability of Americans to "live out their religious beliefs beyond the walls of their places of worship."
Religious freedom caucuses are being rolled out today in nine states, including Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Tennessee.
In New Hampshire, members of the religious freedom caucus will attempt to stake out a presence among some of the least zealous voters in the country when it comes to faith. In a 2009 Gallup survey, only 46 percent of New Hampshire residents said religion is an important part of daily life. The Granite State had the second lowest tally in the country, behind only Vermont.
The formation of state caucuses is intended to help lawmakers strategize on matters that touch on religious practice. The groups will have access to "time-saving resources" provided by the national organization, such as materials to help them craft bills and educate constituents.
The religious freedom caucuses are intended to allow people from different faith communities to work together to advance legislative goals, and to serve as a source of continuity for lawmakers amid the turn-over in the Legislature.
A pamphlet describing the religious freedom caucus movement indicates the group is concerned about a sharp increase in the number of new government mandates and anti-discrimination laws passed in the United States. Many of those laws lack "adequate protections for religious freedom and rights of conscience," according to the Ethics and Public Policy Center.
"Because some high-level officials have begun promoting the idea that the free exercise of religion extends no further than the 'freedom to worship,' threats to religious freedom from all levels of government are growing in number and severity," the pamphlet reads. "Legislative supporters of religious freedom must not wait to address these threats until freedoms have been violated and rights have been lost."
The Ethics and Public Policy Center is calling on state lawmakers to create broad legal exemptions based on religious belief. One of its aims is to promote laws that allow hospitals and health care workers to stop providing products and services they find objectionable on religious grounds. The group is also calling on lawmakers to allow "religious persons and associations" to maintain their own definitions of "family" and "sexuality."
A third legislative goal is to ensure students and professionals are "free from adverse actions that are based on licensure requirements or accreditation standards implementing aggressively secularist agendas."
"Where we're coming from is we're viewing what's coming down out of Washington D.C. and even from state capitals with some alarm," said Rep. Warren Groen, an evangelical Christian who is helping to organize members of New Hampshire's religious freedom caucus.
Groen said the group has not set a legislative agenda, but one area where it could exercise influence is around New Hampshire laws that require employers to provide their employees with health insurance coverage for contraceptives. House members floated a plan to change that requirement earlier this year.
Describing some of his other personal concerns, Warren Groen said he believes churches and pastors are being told they can't get involved in politics, while some private sector workers, such as pharmacists and nurses, are being forced to provide services and products that violate their religious beliefs.
"They're losing their conscience and religious freedom in that way," he said.
Another area of concern nationally is the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, the sweeping health care legislation passed in 2010. If the provisions of the law are fully "imposed" on New Hampshire, it will have a negative impact on religious freedom by funneling taxpayer money to groups that provide abortions, Warren Groen said. It could also negatively impact the state's Catholic charities, he said.
"It used to be that the threat's on the horizon," he said, "and now it's at the front door."

In the world of blogging, you can find any opinion you want on almost any subject you can imagine; from Chinese Hamburger to Celebrity Gossip. You can find people to agree with and people to argue with. The internet delivers it all, right to your desktop.
While in the U.S. Army, I learned a thing or two about opinions. Namely, opinions are like rear-ends; everybody has one and mine smells better than yours (think on that a while).
I believe we live in a post-modern culture, desparately searching for relavance. Unfortunately, our search for relevance often leads to another word that starts with "R": Ridiculous. All around, in the midst of instant-gratification-ME-generation madness, I see silliness. If you take the issue away from the emotion and passion, you too can see the silliness.
In the 20th Century, we made unimaginable technical advances. In the 21st Century, we have made such earth-shattering discoveries as MEN AND WOMEN ARE DIFFERENT. At the same time, we have people demanding Gender Neutral Bathrooms. Every area of life is affected. You can find ridiculousness in politics, religion, education, entertainment, news, sports, weather, and food. You can't escape it.
My one line bio says, "Some people view the world through rose colored glasses, I see it through x-ray goggles." I don't mean to imply I am looking under your clothes (nice underwear by the way) but that I see past the inflated seriousness of the situation and what I see is funny, often tragically so.
I know that there are a lot of decisions in life that have to be taken seriously, and if you do not have enough seriousness, severity, and tragedy in your life, then carry on. If, however, you just want to lighten your mood and laugh at yourself (and maybe a pet issue or two) then take a look around and have fun.

text: Prioritizing Resource Use on Cattle Operations Part 1: People and Time March 3, 2014 06:09 AM Tweet People contribute expertise, skills, ideas, and effort to raising cattle. © Wyatt Bechtel TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By University News Release Email By: Jane Parish, Extension Beef Cattle Specialist, Mississippi State University From long-term strategic decisions to daily operational decisions, every on-farm choice is really about use of resources and the associated tradeoffs involved. By examining these resource interactions, informed decisions can be made about best uses. This approach can help to view each decision in terms of its expected uses of resources and resulting contributions to resource bases and operational goals. This article focuses on two important resource categories: people and time resources. Human Capital Arguably the most important resource category on a cattle operation is human capital – a fancy term for the people involved in the operation. People contribute expertise, skills, ideas, and effort to raising cattle. Having access to great financial and physical resources can certainly provide advantages to an operation, but poor management of those resources by the people making and implementing the decisions will erode these other resources with little to show for it. Think about the "cheap hire" that is not properly skilled or motivated in farm equipment use and causes repair bills that outweigh the fruits of the worker's labor. Having a tractor with handy features can be good, but putting the right operator on the tractor is just as important. In practice, this means that it is worthwhile to invest in the people of the operation. Relevant continuing education and training opportunities are one way to do this. This is true for top level management all the way through to entry level day laborers. Make sure that people are prepared for what they do on the cattle operation. For managers, this may involve not only keeping up with current technologies and best management practices, but also being exposed to additional technologies and trends that may be further developed or adapted to play a future role in the operation. This allows managers to make better long-term plans that help the operation to achieve and sustain a competitive edge. With the advent of online resources that make scheduling and distance constraints a non-factor, people running cattle operations have fewer excuses to forgo continuous learning about new technologies and cattle operation management. Being willing to compensate people according to their talent levels and performance results is another aspect of human capital management that should not be overlooked. The adage, "You get what you pay for," is reality in many on-farm situations. Investing monetarily in good employees can facilitate the acquisition of a more talented workforce, help reduce turnover and downtime, and reduce the risk of having to deal with problem workers. Of course, good screening during the selection process is critical to making this work as intended. Compensation rates should consider the expected return on investment of each prospective worker. Ask the question, "Will paying the employee this much more result in increased profits over time that more than make up for the extra pay?" Compensation typically includes more than just wages or salary. Benefits such as living quarters, insurance, work vehicle access, on-the-job training, etc. can be included in negotiations with prospective talent to attract valuable employees to the operation. Non-monetary compensation can also include job satisfaction, job security, a sense of being appreciated, and other personal values. Time Time is a resource that once spent cannot be replaced. It can be easily wasted in the course of running a cattle operation if efficient yet effective processes, task prioritization, and overall good time management practices are not implemented. Time is something that can be measured for accountability purposes and efficiency evaluation, making it something that lends itself to the effects of management. Time and money are intertwined. Interest on borrowed or invested funds accrues over time. Price levels change over time meaning that what one dollar can buy today is likely to not be the same as what one dollar can buy in the future. Also, people working on the operation are getting paid for their time contributions to the operation, whether by the hour or year. Make sure that the time that people put into the operation justifies the payment for that time. Proper training and motivation of people can help to improve productivity per unit of time. If workers skimp on their responsibilities or do not perform to their potential due to poor time management, then managers should address time resource use. Managers can introduce time management techniques and oversight to improve time use among cattle operation workers. Examples of this include reducing workplace distractions and time wasters, keeping priority order to-do lists, and setting and enforcing practical deadlines. Keep time logs to identify tasks or projects that could benefit from time management improvement. Then examine these processes to determine what changes might be needed to improve time efficiency. When tasks are better performed by a team than individually, try to accommodate this and vice-versa to make best use of everyone's time involved. Time management decisions should also include ways to maintain a healthy work and life balance that will benefit workers and lead to better contributions by these people to the operation over the long run. Avoid extreme situations that can bring about worker burn out or risk key tasks not getting done in a timely and quality manner. Schedule labor and assign tasks so that one worker does not carry an impractical work load while others are allowed excessive downtime. Resource Interactions Regardless of resource classification, good management is needed to put these resources to best use on cattle operations. To do this, anticipate how other resources will be affected by use of a particular resource in a certain way for a specified purpose. Small changes in resource use can have a ripple effect on other resources involved in the operation. For example, spending extra time to perform preventative maintenance on machinery may take time and money on the front end but could save time, money, and people on the back end by reducing the risk of equipment failures or injuries. Cattle operation owners and managers should determine priorities for the various resource bases in the context of the ultimate goals for the operation. Is the overriding goal to expand physical resources (assets) and financial resources? Is the driving reason behind operating so that a certain lifestyle or enjoyment from cattle production be achieved? What is more important, leisure time or money? In other words, what is the ideal resource balance and what operational decisions will work to achieve it? Tomorrow's article will continue this topic with a look at prioritizing the use of physical and financial resources on cattle operations. Back to news

Is sago the same thing as tapioca, or is there a difference? I'm trying to buy sago pearls for a dish and I can't find them, thought maybe I could use tapioca instead because I can find those easily.

Sailors Off To Impressive Start
NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- This weekend the Bulldogs proved again why they are ranked number one in the country, winning the Danmark Trophy hosted by the U.S. Coast Guard Academy. The victory was the third for the Bulldogs in four weekends. Sailors also competed at the Smith Trophy at MIT and Southern Series Four at Connecticut College.
Fluky breezes continued to bedevil college sailing this weekend. Rain and the occasional thunderstorm made racing difficult at the Danmark Trophy. Eventually, a 5-12 knot breeze settled in and 10 races were completed per division. A division sailed 420s while B division raced FJs. On Sunday the competitors switched vessels, placing A division duo senior Thomas Barrows and junior Blair Belling in an FJ and B division sailors sophomore Joe Morris and senior Marla Menninger in a 420. Five more races were completed in each division. By day's end, the Bulldogs had turned in an impressive performance. Barrows and Belling won A division by an impressive 30 points, while Morris and Menninger finished a strong third in B division. The Bulldogs captured the overall victory as well, out-pacing second-place Boston College by 28 points.
A team also travelled to Boston for the Smith Trophy at MIT, sailed on the notoriously tricky Charles River. The regatta was sailed in MIT's Tech Dinghy, and the 26 schools present made the Smith Trophy the largest college sailing regatta of the year. Rain persisted for much of Saturday, though there was enough wind for sailing. Sailors battled against frequent wind-shifts across the entire course all day. Sunday brought, as described in the regatta report, "a severe lack of wind". All racing was canceled for the day, making Saturday's scores final. In A division, sophomore Rob Struckett and junior Alexa Chu battled an unfamiliar dinghy to a 21st place finish with one top-six result. In B division, junior Andrew Kurzrok and freshman Grace Zimmerly finished 12th with two top-fives. The Bulldogs finished 17th overall. The event is named for MIT Professor George Warren Smith, a professor of electrical engineering and longtime friend of collegiate sailing.
Sailors also travelled to Connecticut College for Southern Series Four. Connecticut College, like Coast Guard, sails on the Thames River in New London, Conn. However, because Connecticut College is farther away from Long Island Sound, breezes are often lighter and shiftier. Racing took place in winds ranging from 3-8 knots. Sophomore Genoa Warner and junior Nathan Stevens tallied 78 points over seven races In A division while senior John Vrolyk and sophomore Isabel Elliman scored 51 points in B division, including two race-wins. For their efforts, the team placed fifth overall and the event was won by Connecticut College.
Next weekend the Bulldogs will compete for the men's Singlehanded Championship at Roger Williams, the Moody Trophy at University of Rhode Island, and the Protest Trophy at Coast Guard.

EXETER — Water Street Bookstore, located at 125 Water Street in Exeter, is hosting Colette Baron-Reid, author of the new book, Weight Loss for People Who Feel Too Much: A 4 Step, 8-Week Program Plan to Finally Lose the Weight, Manage Emotional Eating, and Find Your Fabulous Self, for a discussion and signing on Tuesday, Jan. 8 at 7 p.m.
Colette Baron-Reid understands the real reason so many of us struggle to lose weight and keep it off. As an intuitive life coach, motivational speaker, and successful author, she's helped thousands of people recognize their potential and purpose. But it's through her own personal struggles, having gained as much as 70 pounds in three months, that she discovered the hidden cause of unwanted weight gain.
It isn't that we don't know what to eat or don't have enough willpower; it's that we are responding to feeling too much! In Weight Loss for People Who Feel Too Much, Baron-Reid provides a four-step, eight-week program for managing empathy overload — the hidden cause of unwanted weight gain and emotional, empathetic eating.
Baron-Reid is an internationally renowned intuitive counselor, life coach, and author. Through a 22-year practice, she has advised over 34,000 clients in 29 countries and for three years toured as the opening speaker with Hay House.

Ellen Page Comes Out as Gay - Watch Her Speech Here! (Video)
Ellen Page has bravely announced that she is gay, according to THR!
"I'm here today because I am gay. And because maybe I can make a difference. To help others have an easier and more hopeful time. Regardless, for me, I feel a personal obligation and a social responsibility," the 26-year-old actress shared during a Time to THRIVE conference.
PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Ellen Page
She added, "It's weird because here I am, an actress, representing — at least in some sense — an industry that places crushing standards on all of us. Not just young people, but everyone. Standards of beauty. Of a good life. Of success. Standards that, I hate to admit, have affected me."
"You have ideas planted in your head, thoughts you never had before, that tell you how you have to act, how you have to dress and who you have to be. I have been trying to push back, to be authentic, to follow my heart, but it can be hard," Ellen added. Watch her speech below!

Boudhanath [7] is a suburb of Kathmandu and home to one of the largest Buddhist stupas in the world. Boudhanath is also known as Boudha, pronounced 'Bo-da'.
In 1979, Boudhanath became a UNESCO World Heritage Site and today, it remains an important place of pilgrimage and meditation for Tibetan Buddhists and local Nepalis, as well as a popular tourist site. The Great Stupa of Boudhanath is the focal point of the district. There are over 50 Tibetan Gompas (Monasteries) around Boudhanath. The culture, remains very much Himalayan with a strong presence of Tibetans and Sherpas, and this can be evidenced by the number of restaurants selling momos and thukpa and other Tibetan favorites. In fact, when traveling into the area, it is often the sight of maroon clad Tibetan Buddhist monks and nuns that indicates you are getting close. Boudhanath remains a fascinating area with many Buddhist temples and eccentric characters. It is a very spiritual area. As a daily ritual, many people walk three laps (or more) around the stupa while repeating the mantra 'Om mani padme hum' either quietly or aloud.
Recommended reading
Get in
Taxis: From airport, pay no more than 150rs (for pre-paid, expect to pay much more, but it saves the hassle of bargaining). From Thamel, pay no more than 130rs. These prices are max. If your purpose for visiting Boudhanath is to see the Boudha stupa, then tell the taxi driver you wish to go to Boudha Gate. This is the main entrance to the stupa. There are also a number of local buses and vans that carry passengers from all over Kathmandu Valley to Chabihil for 15 to 20 rupees. From Chabihill it's a 15 min. walk, or take one of the many buses/vans to Boudha for another 15 rupees.
Get around
Most of the sites of interest are located near the stupa and can easily be reached on foot.
There are many handicraft stores located all around the stupa. Prices are comparable to those in Thamel, but there is a little less variety. However, naturally for Buddhist related items - statues, prayer flags, Tibetan incense, etc - Boudhanath is the better place.
Mid range
In the vicinity of sacred sites:
Stay healthy
Get out
There are many internet cafes on and around the kora (the walking area that surrounds the stupa) - Dharana Cyberspace, is an especially clean facility with fast computers.

- Photos taken at the meeting can be see here.
- Meet other delegates on the conference Facebook page!
Why attend
Over recent decades, the incidence of metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes has risen to epidemic proportions. Projections into the future suggest increasingly unmet patient needs and an unsustainable challenge for health care systems. Simultaneously, the drug discovery process is facing its own challenges. The number of pharmaceutical companies who are able to conduct expensive late stage clinical trials is declining. Funding for academic laboratories and biotechnology operations is limited. Novel strategies and new insights are needed to treat these diseases.
The 2014 EMBO | EMBL Symposium will focus on "translation" from bench to bedside and from model organism to the clinic.
Aims of event
This EMBO | EMBL Symposium aims to bring together established experts, physician scientists and basic researchers to discuss the multi-layered and complex processes leading up to novel therapeutic strategies for diabetes, obesity and related health issues, such as cancer and cardiovascular disease, including:
- Mechanistic translational research addressing controversies of clinical relevance for diabetes and obesity
- Systems biology approaches dissecting multi-organ communication in the pathophysiology of metabolic disease
- Unraveling the emerging molecular interplays between immune processes and metabolic pathways
- Exploring novel insight into mechanisms of bariatric surgery and combination therapies for the development of future pharmacologics

PHOTO: Shrine to the Gerberas, in the collection of Nora Jones, is a small art quilt designed for Tote Tuesday, Virginia Spiegel's 2010 online auction to benefit the American Cancer Society.
May 1, 2010 my new show will open at the Universalist Unitarian Church Gallery in Fort Wayne, Indiana. There will be approximately 25 pieces in the exhibit—all based on childhood memories.
The exhibit is a tribute to my mom, who passed away May 23, 2009.
As an only child, I was often in situations where the grown-ups were doing or saying something "important" and I had to be quiet. This was not easy! About the age of 5, I began telling myself stories, making up songs, or carrying on conversations with some wonderful creature to entertain myself.
The pieces in this exhibit are snippets of those occasions, as I remember them.
Each piece begins as a memory fragment, such as Whispers On The Wind, above. One spring day my grandmother, mother, and I went to the farm of a relative to see the spring wildflowers in the woods. I was mesmerized by the delicate shapes and colors of the various blossoms, but was disappointed when Grandmother said they couldn't go home with us: "They'd be unhappy away from their home in the woods and would die."
I quickly grew bored of looking at flowers that wouldn't be in a vase in my room and wandered off, sat on a log, and imagined I could hear fairy voices on the wind. Their voices were soft as whispers and they spoke in a strange language.
How do you design a visual of a memory? For me, digital collage was the answer. I could combine elements extracted from photos and clip art to express the feeling experienced in that one moment so long ago.
Hand beading and stitching will complete the composition, which will then be hung by a free-form hanger made from cold-forged refrigerator tubing from a retired refrigerator (this suggestion from my friend and long-time colleague Barbara Matthiessen).

The tree of tour was in the sunroom of the house that I decorated for the weekend long event. Everyone came through enamored by the use of burlap strapping as tree ribbon. When I found the balls at the Pottery Barn outlet in Ohio, I knew that they had to be the focal point of the tree. So, 7 went up, and then the ribbon and red ornaments were peppered in around them.
At first, I was going to use ribbon exclusively in this tree, but again, after finding those huge orbs, literally the size of basketballs, that changed. So I pulled the red from the rug up into the tree, and out onto the patio, as you saw in the tablescape featured here. My intention with all the decorating for this house was to seamlessly blend the color from the decor into the Christmas trimmings.
I'm so sorry that the pictures of this room are so heavily over-exposed. They get so much wonderful light in this room, that it makes photo taking a real chore! So, enjoy the rest of them ... and as a quick note: I WON! The tour has a "winner" each year, and I was informed just moments ago, that this house was chosen by those who toured as the crowd favorite! Many thanks to those of you who may have come and voted!

It's a real Saab story!
The Brooklyn-based indie-rock band Vampire Weekend is taking heat for torching two beloved old cars on the set of its new music video.
The doting owners of two Saab 900s had thought they were selling the rides to someone who would care for them — but the rockers set them ablaze in front of the Manhattan Bridge, a worker involved claims.
The worker — a tow-truck driver who transported the cars to the video shoot for the band's single "Diane Young" — is now calling the rockers out for their lack of respect for the wheels.
"The previous owners were telling me all of the nice times they had in [the cars] and to make sure to take care of them," Brian Da Silva, owner of CBR Towing, wrote on his Facebook page.
"Little do they know, they [are] charcoal."
Da Silva told The Post band reps had bought the Swedish-made cars in working condition.
The destruction of two cult-favorite cars enraged auto fans.
"Those weren't busted-ass cars. They were deeply loved by their owners, who wanted to see them go to a nice new home," car enthusiast Patrick George wrote on the auto-news blog Jalopnik.
Other auto fans admitted the Saabs might technically be "junkers" but said memories tied to them were priceless.
The music video, released last week, features a slow-motion shot of two Saabs burning in front of the East River.
"You torched a Saab like a pile of leaves. I'd gone to find some better wheels," singer Ezra Koenig wails in the song.
Band members say destroying the wheels was an artistic statement — not a move meant to irk sentimental car collectors.
"I want people to understand that we do respect cars and the last thing we want to do is to f–k up a collector's item or something like that," Koenig told the music blog Spinner.
"Our record label was trying to purchase the cheapest, oldest cars possible."
He added that the band's keyboardist, Rostam Batmanglij, grew up riding in Saabs.
Band members came up with the concept for the video but were not present on set, he said.
The Saabs, likely from the early '90s, were each worth $3,000. One was a white hatchback, the other a black convertible.
Torching the wheels may have also been a violation of the New York's Clean Air Act. Burning paint and metal is an environmental hazard, the state Department of Environmental Conservation says on its Web site.
The rock quartet began churning out chart-toppers such as "Oxford Comma" and "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa" in 2006.
It will release its album "Modern Vampires of the City" in May. On April 28, it will play the Roseland Ballroom in Midtown.
The band's publicist declined to comment.

The Phils scored three times in the sixth to give themselves a win over the BoSox, 4-1.
A three-run sixth innings leads the Phils to a 4-1 victory over the Red Sox.
The Phils took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the third as, with runners on second and third, and with one man out, Michael Martinez hits a sacrifice fly, scoring Brian Schneider, who had earlier walked, reached second on a force out attempt throwing error by Jon Lester on a Roy Halladay grounder, then went to third on a Shane Victorino sacrifice bunt, 1-4. The Red Sox came back to tie it up at 1-1 in the top of the fifth as, with a runner on third, and with one man out, Drew Sutton hits a sacrifice fly, knocking in Jed Lowrie, who had earlier doubled, then went to third on a Ryan Khoury ground out, 3-unassisted. The Phils retook the lead in the bottom of the sixth as, with runners on the corners, and with one man out, Raul Ibanez hits an RBI single, scoring Jimmy Rollins, who had earlier walked, moved up to second base on Ryan Howard's single, then stole third, giving the Phils a 2-1 lead, while sending Howard, who had just singled, up to second base. Two batters later, after Ben Francisco took a walk, loading up the bases, as Howard and Ibanez both moved up a base, and with still one man out, Josh Barfield hits a two-run single, scoring both Howard and Ibanez, making it a 4-1 Phils' lead, while sending Francisco to second base. That would be the final score as Madson records his first save of the spring.
Roy Halladay gets the win (3-0, 0.48) as he pitched seven and two-thirds innings, giving up a run on five hits and three walks, as he struck out six. Ryan Madson received his first save of the spring as he pitched an inning and a third, giving up a hit. Jon Lester took the lost (1-1, 3.38) as he pitched five and a third innings, giving up four runs, only three of which were earned, on five hits and four walks, as he struck out six. Matt Albers then followed with one and two-thirds scoreless innings, striking out three. Dan Wheeler then pitched a scoreless inning, giving up a hit.
The Phils had six hits in the game, all singles, by Ryan Howard, Raul Ibanez, Cory Sullivan, Josh Barfield, Brian Schneider and Roy Halladay. Barfield knocked in two of the Phils' run with his single, while Ibanez brought in one with a single and Michael Martinez brought in one with a sac fly.
The Phils' spring training record is now 16-9.

The Wyoming State Senate advanced a bill that would establish a state education accountability program to monitor K-12 education. State Representative John Patton appeared as a guest Tuesday on News Talk 930 KROE'S Public Pulse program and offered this opinion on who should be held accountable for underachieving school districts in Wyoming.
Patton said that the legislation would comprise of a committee that would be headed by the chairman of the House Education Committee and the Senate Education Committee. Patton also said that it will be an ongoing process and that by 2013 every school district will have to conform to the accountability standards that come out of that committee.
The Senate Tuesday killed a bill that proposed to remove continuing contract status from the Wyoming teacher employment law. The teacher tenure bill as it is better known, would have ended the practice of automatically renewing teacher's employment contracts after they pass an initial three-year probationary period.

Mayor Eric Garcetti appointed his one-time mayoral rival Kevin James to a key City Hall position Friday, giving him a job as a commissioner on the Board of Public Works. He also filled four other commissioner appointments and named a new deputy mayor.
James, who decried City Hall corruption and incompetence during his failed bid for Los Angeles mayor earlier this year, said he would focus on street improvements and sidewalks in his new position.
"It's a chance to get into the nitty gritty of the city," said James, who helped campaign for Garcetti after coming in third in the primary.
The former radio talk show host said he will resign from the Century City law firm where he works to take the commissioner job, which pays more than $136,000 a year. James said he is taking a pay cut to come to City Hall.
In addition to James, Garcetti announced four other Public Works board commissioner appointments.
The others are Mike Davis, the former state Assembly member; Monica Rodriguez, executive for the California Association of Realtors; Matt Szabo, a deputy under Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa; and Barbara Romero; a Mountains Recreation & Conservation Authority executive..
The commissioners meet three times a week at City Hall. They serve collectively as the general managers of the Department of Public Works, which oversees city services such as lighting, beautification and street services.
Garcetti also announced the appointment of Rick Cole as deputy mayor of budget and innovation, a newly created position.
Cole, the former mayor of Pasadena, most recently served as the former interim chief operating officer at the nonprofit Local Government Commission.
In a statement, Garcetti said Cole "will be a critical asset to my agenda of balancing the budget and making City Hall work better."

Ida Baehr Lang
Born: February 2, 1909
Ruchheim, Germany
Ida was born to Jewish parents who owned a dry goods store in a small town in the Rhine River valley. As a teenager, Ida loved to bicycle with her cousin, Luise, in the scenic valley. After graduating from school, Ida helped her parents run the store. When she was in her early twenties, she married Fritz Lang, who owned a dry goods store in nearby Lambsheim, where they lived.
1933-39: Fritz and I have hired a housekeeper to help take care of our new baby girl, Freya, while I work in the store. More and more Jews are leaving Germany now that the Nazi party is in power. My mother-in-law has sailed for New York with Fritz's brother, and my dear cousin, Luise, just called to wish me goodbye. And us? Fritz is hesitant to give up the business, and I don't know how I could ever leave my parents.
1940-42: Fritz and I and 6-year-old Freya have already been deported to two detention camps in France. When we arrived at the camp at Gurs, it was winter--cold and rainy--and we had only straw to sleep on. Freya came down with a high fever and severe earache and almost died. Now, at Rivesaltes, where we've been moved, we have a chance to get Freya out of the camp to safety through an aid society that is arranging to hide children with French families in the countryside. I say goodbye to Freya through the barbed-wire fence.
In September 1942, a few days after Freya left the camp, Ida was deported to Auschwitz, where she perished. Freya survived the war and was reunited with her father in 1946.

The University of Rhode Island kicked off Black History Month Tuesday night with a talk from Harvard law professor and mentor to President Obama, Charles Ogletree.
Ogletree is an expert on criminal and civil rights legal issues and taught both President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama when they were students at Harvard Law School. He is the first speaker of the newly enacted Marlen S. Bodden Annual Lecture Series in Africana Studies at URI, a series that Provost Don DeHayes said will continue well into the future.
"I can't think of a more fitting way to kick off Black History Month at the University of Rhode Island," said DeHayes.
Via video message, Bodden, an attorney at the Legal Aid Society in New York, said the fact that URI was able to book someone so well known in the area of equal rights is "something that we will talk about for a long, long time."
"This is a dream come true for the Africana studies faculty," said Dr. Winifred Brownell, dean of the College of Arts & Sciences. "We are on a quest to enhance the Africana studies program and provide wonderful opportunities for our students."
After noting the full house at Tuesday's event, including a mix of students, faculty and other members of the public, Dr. Vanessa Wynder Quainoo, director of Africana Studies, said, "Black History Month is for everybody. It is a university-wide celebration."
During the hour-long talk, "Post-Racial America in the Age of Obama," Ogletree discussed the progress America has made in embracing diversity since the 1960s, using URI's Multicultural Center as an example.
Ogletree cited several past acts of violence against civil rights leaders and activists. Among them, he referred to Myrlie Evers-Williams, the widow who delivered the invocation at President Obama's 2013 inauguration.
The KKK gunned down Evers-Williams' husband in his own driveway in 1962.
"I think about that," Ogletree said of reflecting on the country's progress. "I think about all those deaths."
Ogletree spoke of Obama's election to office in 2008, exactly 40 years after Robert F. Kennedy gave a speech addressing the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. As a student, Ogletree said President Obama "was really the smartest student at Harvard University." He also said First Lady Michelle Obama "was one of the smartest people around."
The Obamas and Ogletree remain close; President Obama refers to his former professor as "Tree."
Ogletree recalls Obama always sitting in the front row. He said the future president made a habit of pointing out the validity of other students' arguments.
"I said Barack, am I teaching this class or you? Give me a little respect here," Ogletree said.
Even then, though, Ogletree did not expect his star student to end up in the White House.
"When I saw his talent and gifts and abilities, I was convinced he was going to be the best damn mayor in America," he said. "Mayors are very important people who do a lot of important things we don't know – amazing things on the local level. That's what I thought he was going to be, a great mayor."
In 1991, Ogletree says the president approached him with an ethical dilemma. He was torn between returning to public service in Chicago or moving on to Washington or New York. When he asked "Tree" if he could risk disappointing some people in order to take advantage of better career opportunities, Ogletree said, "I thought long and hard and I said, 'Barack … yes you can.'"
"Barack hasn't given me any credit at all," Ogletree joked.
Ogletree stressed the importance of recognizing the progress America has made. Regardless of whether or not you support Obama, he said the president's path to the White House has been noteworthy. Obama is an African American man born in 1961 with no father in his life, moving around the country with his single mother. Others in that situation might be "dead, on drugs or in jail," he said.
"Barack Obama is at 1600 Penn Ave."
In attendance at the evening's event was URI sophomore and Johnston High School graduate Kody Fraser, who was impressed with Ogletree's presentation.
"A lot of what he said went along with what I believe in and he talked like a real person, which was very appealing to me," he said.
Fraser is studying film at URI and recorded the night's event, which he said would be available on URI's video network in a few weeks.
Upcoming Black History Month events at URI include an original poetry reading by Prof. Gitahi Gititi on Monday, Feb. 11 at 4 p.m. in Lippitt Auditorium fourth floor; a David E. Allen, Jazz & Gospel Guitarist concert on Sunday, Feb. 24 at 6 p.m. in the Multicultural Center; "Race, History and Education: Stand Up, Take a Seat and Own Your Spot" by Desne Crossley from Harvard Law School on Monday, Feb. 25 at 4 p.m. in Lippitt Auditorium fourth floor; a graduate student research panel on Tuesday, Feb. 26 at 3 p.m. in the Multicultural Center; and an undergraduate student research panel on Wednesday, Feb. 27 at 3 p.m. in the Multicultural Center. Throughout the month of February, an African American film will be shown each Wednesday in Lippitt 402 at 3 p.m. All events are free are open to the public.

Court Dismisses Puerto 80 Rojadirecta Case (For Now)... But Doesn't Give Back The Domain
from the um,-what dept
Yesterday was the latest hearing in the forfeiture case involving Rojadirecta (Puerto 80), and the end result was that -- believe it or not -- the case was dismissed (pdf). The ruling doesn't say much -- basically says the reasons were stated during the oral arguments, and there's no transcript yet. However, the basics are that it was dismissed on a technicality (over a failure to plead the willfulness, which is necessary for criminal infringement), and the government has 30 days to amend and refile its complaint -- which is quite likely. While having the case dismissed sounds like a big deal, this seems more like a temporary pause, rather than anything meaningful at this point (unlike the Dajaz1 situation).
But here's the weird thing: technically, because of the dismissal, there's no forfeiture case going on, and the seizure time period has long expired. So... um... why does the government still have the domains in question? There's no ongoing case, and even if the government intends to refile, it's hard to see how it has a right to hang onto the domains in the meantime. But... it is. It seems like both Dajaz1 and Puerto 80 should be celebrating the returns of their domains today, but only one is....
