The Pitastro

ThePitastro-1Finding out about new music is one of my favourite hobbies; so finding about The Pitastro was quite exciting for me. The reggae-vibe is enough to get anyone’s feet moving and the rock/reggae mash was an extremely original and refreshing listen for me – having never heard of such a unique clash music genres. In addition, the mellow rasp of lead singer Marco Roth’s voice blends perfectly with the music – each element coming together to make an amazing sound. The video for ‘Mr. Myssy Man’ has over 17,000 views on YouTube since the original postdate in February 2013; watch that video here.

The Pitastro originated in Sweden in May 2010 and played their first official gig as a band in June 2010. The band describes their unique sound as funk-rock with a touch of reggae – which is a very accurate description of the genre that the band would be categorized under. Audiences around the world have said that The Pitastro has a sound that is similar to that of reggae legend Bob Marley: a groovy bass line, and a positive message behind the songs, and, based on the YouTube comments underneath the video for ‘Mr. Myssy Man’, the audience feels the same way that I do about The Pitastro.

ThePitastro-2The songs ‘Mr. Myssy Man’ and ‘LIFE’ reminded me of being on a warm beach with a coconut drink in hand, and I found that The Pitastro’s songs were extremely easy to listen to because it was almost effortless to fall in love with the beat.

The four-man band continues to tour around Sweden, as well as various venues around Europe. Be sure to check out “The Ultimate Rock/Reggae Band” on Facebook and subscribe to the band on YouTube.

And now, Ladies and Gentleman, I Introduce you to. . . The Pitastro.

February 6, 1945

Feb6On this day in 1945, Robert Nesta “Bob” Marley was born in Jamaica to Cedella Booker and Norval Sinclair Marley. His mother was a native of Jamaica and his father was a white Jamaican of British (and rumoured Syrian-Jewish) descent who was an officer in the British military.

Marley was ten years old when Norval died of a heart attack in 1955 at age 70.

By age 16, Marley had recorded his first single ‘Judge Not’, and in 1963, he formed The Wailers with Peter Tosh, Bunny Livingstone, Junior Braithwaite, and Beverly Kelso.

Braithwaite and Kelso left the group in 1965, but the Wailers continued as a trio, with Marley, Tosh, and Livingstone trading leads. In 1966, the group had separated and the band dissolved.

Marley married his girlfriend Rita Anderson while working in a factory in Newark before his return to Jamaica where the Wailers reunited. Throughout this period, the Wailers committed themselves to the religious sect of Rastafari.

The Wailers had their breakthrough in 1972 when Chris Blackwell – who had released ‘Judge Not’ in England in 1963 – signed the Wailers to Island Records and advanced them the funds to make a record in Jamaica.

The first result of their new contract was in1973 when the album Burnin’, which included the songs ‘Get Up, Stand Up’ and ‘I Shot The Sheriff’ reached an international audience for the first time.

The band toured excessively during this period, and Marley expanded the instrumental section of the group, bringing in a female vocal trio, which included his wife, Rita.

Now called Bob Marley and the Wailers, they toured Europe, Africa, and America, building especially strong followings in the U.K., Scandinavia, and Africa.

In 1976, Marley was shot by gunmen during the Jamaican election campaign, but survived and continued to soar in popularity until his 1981 death due to brain, lung and stomach cancer.

Rita Marley continues to run the Tuff Gong studios and record company.

Yellow, Lost

— Robert Okaji

The forgotten poem, existing in title only: Yellow.

Which is a bruise at three weeks, or memory’s shade in autumn.

In what black folder does it hide? In which blinding light?

I take comfort in primaries, lose sleep at the edges.

Where fraying begins and annotation dwindles to scrawled lines.

Above the bones and flesh of the Egyptian gods. Above my books.

Within these lost minutes. Those moons, bereaved. The hours.

Desire germinates even after our rainless decades. Yellow, again.

The color of sulfur (the devil’s realm) or the traitor’s door.

Of cowardice and warning. Of aging and decay.

How to recover what’s sifted away, the residue of our loves?

Each day more bits break off, never to be reattached.

But you, I blend with the sky, perfecting trees, the grass.

Benefits of Online Casinos

The days when people had to visit physical casinos for gambling purposes have long been forgotten due to the rise of the internet technology. The internet is now a merchandising platform for business enterprises of all forms and this has made it entirely unnecessary for such businesses to have physical offices. Owing to this truth, it is not unpopular to see most users doing their betting online. The online casinos bring many advantages to the gamblers.

Number one, the users have no limitation related to time of their place of residence. Regardless of the time of the day or the actual location of the users, betting can still be done when online casinos are used. There can be no greater convenience than this for any gambler.

It should also be noted that there are very few physical casinos that operate around the clock. This has the effect of limiting the users who may want to bet at night. However, when the option of online casinos is considered, there is no limit to what time the users can do their betting. In addition, online casinos allow users to bet from the comfort of their homes.

Also, online betting is advantageous for people who may not want to bet publicly. The main issue of concern for such group of people is the fear that they may be spotted by their friends when they visit the casinos. These people further fear to lose their public image owing to the fact that someone personally known to them may be a staff of the casino they choose to visit. As a result of this, therefore, the gamblers privacy is not assured. For such group of people, the only way they can bet without living traces of their betting is to consider online casinos. Online casions offer more privacy since gamblers just have to log into the casino websites from the privacy of their phones.

Finally, we all know that businesses that operate online have lower overhead costs than those which do not. This is particularly true owing to the fact that such businesses do not have to pay rent for their businesses. Online casinos make it easy for their owners to operate without having to pay for rent, power bills or the gambling equipment. This factor is very advantageous for the casino owner. Clients are also not left out in this cost-benefit. The cost of tickets, for instance, is considerably reduced for the gamblers to buy them at a subsidized price and they are thus able to do more betting compared to the case where they would have to physically visit a casino.

Excellence in bloviation

Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh, who inexplicably made the Discovery Channel's top 100 list for the title of "Greatest American," singled out an Illinois high school during his Tuesday show, blasting the school for its required "global perspectives" classes and saying its students "don't know anything about World War II" and have "probably never heard the name Adolf Hitler."

A few students promptly challenged Limbaugh to a debate on American history. You might think such a fearless defender of truth, justice, and the American way would jump at the chance to show off his superior knowledge and to demonstrate the futility of public education. Strangely, though, Limbaugh has yet to accept the challenge, probably because he's too busy fending off Florida prosecutors or, even worse, Feminazis.

Blogger Hanging by the News said...

I can't pull up the list of the Discovery Channel's 100 Greatest Americans here on the Mac, but I would say that Limbaugh's inclusion on the list is pretty justified.

When you think of talk radio, Limbaugh is likely the first personality that comes to mind. Wikipedia states that Limbaugh is the most listened to radio talk show host in the United States and boasts a weekly audience of more than 20 million.

He's been a syndicated talk show host since 1988, which I'm guessing beats most of the talk show hosts on the airwaves today.

And I believe that if it wasn't for Limbaugh's popularity over the years, we wouldn't have a large talk show market that could hold Sean Hannity, Alan Colmes, Bill O'Reilly, Al Franken, Larry Elder, Jerry Springer and more. Of course, CNN and Fox News have also contributed to that with their news commentary shows hosted by a single host.

I don't defend Limbaugh's "doctor-shopping," but I think he's only one of hundreds of thousands of Americans with a drug problem. I think that instead of trying to single him out and prosecute him, Florida officials should try to give him some help.

It's surprising that we interview Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown on their illegal drug use around their children, and no one attempts to take their children and put them in a better home, yet we target Limbaugh for purchasing legal drugs (albeit illegally) even after he's trying to get himself out of the vicious cycle of excessive legal drug use.

Maybe you don't like the guy, or maybe you don't care one way or the other for him, but give the guy a break. And don't deny that he is one of the most influential figures in radio history.

6:59 PM
Blogger Alabamian said...

Limbaugh once called 13-year-old Chelsea Clinton the "White House dog." He once told a black caller to "take that bone out of your nose and call me back." He's repeatedly twisted or ignored the truth during his radio career.

Perhaps our definitions of "Great American" differ.

"And don't deny that he is one of the most influential figures in radio history."

Influence isn't necessarily positive. Limbaugh has contributed to the dumbing down of political discourse in this country to the point that any nuance is shouted down as flip-flopping. He has also demonized drug abusers while he was breaking the law. That's usually known as hypocrisy, and, while most of us are guilty of that from time to time, we don't make a living trashing others for committing the same sins we have committed.

10:08 PM
Blogger Hanging by the News said...

The Chelsea jab might have been a low blow, but I'd venture a guess that left-wing commentators have said similar or worse comments about the Bush daughters.

Yes, the Snopes article points out that he did make the "bones out of your nose" comment, but it also points out that he made it in the early 1970s. How long are you going to keep a record of somebody's faults or negative actions? Thirty years from now, I think we all will have amassed a few instances where we inserted a foot into our mouth.

I think few political commentators are innocent of the crime of twisting or ignoring the truth. Al Franken is one such commentator I can think of, and as one of the most recognizable personalities on the left as an Air America talk show host, he serves as a good counterexample to Limbaugh. Even Michael Moore, another "Great American," took several liberties in Fahrenheit 9/11.

If Limbaugh can be attributed to the "dumbing down" of political discourse in America, he's far from the only one. Close-mindedness, spin and hypocrisy aren't limited to one side of the political spectrum.

It's OK to listen to Limbaugh, Franken, Hannity or Colmes - but knowing that each represents one side of the political spectrum, it is your duty to take what each one says with a grain of salt. Listening to both sides every once in a while can't hurt, either.

10:45 PM
Blogger Alabamian said...

If a liberal commentator ever denigrated the Bush twins while they were minors and were doing nothing to place themselves in the public spotlight, I never heard about it. Regardless, I don't like the implication that just because both sides may be doing it, it's somehow justified; it's deplorable for a grown man to say something like that about a 13-year-old. She didn't choose her parents.

I haven't read all of the points at the anti-Al Franken site you posted, but based on a cursory glance, I'd take everything there with a grain of salt. Among the "lies" the site alleges are that Franken cracked a couple of jokes about white Irish guys and that Franken was actually right when he said the Los Angeles Times covered a story, but he, um, just wasn't right enough. Spinsanity, whose creators unfortunately have stopped updating the site, took a more nonpartisan look at Franken's work.

Blogger Hanging by the News said...

When politics is involved, everything should be taken with a grain of salt.

I said the "Chelsea jab was a low blow," but I never implied it was OK because other commentators have made similar comments. I'm just saying that it happens on both sides, and to some extent. the other side gets away with it.

The Bush twins might have tried to get a few alcoholic drinks while they were underage, but I don't think they were attempting to place themselves in the public spotlight. Maybe, just maybe, they're just like many other college-aged students who try to get some alcohol before turning 21.

And while, yes, they were breaking the law, they do not deserve having those exploits in the news because they're the president's daughters - they too didn't choose their parents. Any other kids their age trying to score some drinks wouldn't be news - why should they be featured on the evening news, then?

But they became the butt of a few jokes anyway, and I never saw any backlash to those who made such comments.

2:47 PM
Blogger Alabamian said...

I don't think it's fair to attack the Bush twins for drinking underage in college, considering that so many Americans have done it and there's no real social stigma attached to it anymore.

Like it or not, though, it's newsworthy whenever a president's children break the law, and they were 19 at the time, which means they were legally responsible for their actions. In contrast, Chelsea Clinton was 13, a minor, and did nothing whatsoever to prompt Limbaugh's attack on her.

The situations just aren't analogous.

Abstract / Description

The Life Project explores issues of psychological projection into technology by diving into the convoluted relationship between practical purpose and emotional attachment, through both the creative act of designing and making robot entities with artificial emotions, and the social act of engaging with them. This process explores the concept of body representation through a multiidentity in virtual and physical blended space. In a lesser sense, it also suggests a future world of collaboration between physical and virtual forms, enabled by new forms of representation in blended worlds.

Penn State’s IP Protection Racket, 4: The 1992 IP Agreement, con’t

Now we can look at Part B of Penn State’s 1992 IP Agreement. Part B concerns extramural contracts and starts with another general statement:

I also understand that, whenever I am associated with activities which are financially supported by contracts and grants of certain Sponsors, the invention and patent provisions of the sponsor agreements and/or applicable institutional patent and copyright agreements may create additional responsibilities with respect to:

In simple words–I agree to comply with any additional responsibilities with regard to inventions and intellectual property set forth in extramural contracts entered into by the University. But here, things aren’t so simple. The general statement refers only to “certain” sponsors–which ones? And refers to “copyright agreements” of the university–what the heck is that, given that this, uh, thing, is the IP Agreement. What’s not stated, and should be, is that whatever these additional responsibilities are, they are required by the sponsor, not by the university. Otherwise, the university can change its policy simply by demanding provisions in an extramural research agreement that are contrary to its policy, and when the sponsor agrees to these provisions, gosh, the IP Agreement turns them into as good as policy, but without the bother of involving the Trustees.

In any event, the general statement puts what follows as a conditional–a contract might not create responsibilities. But there is a clever word trick here, since the IP Agreement is set up to trigger on the fact of an extramural contract, not the requirements of any given contract. Thus, the aim of the IP Agreement is to rationalize the university’s ownership claims to inventions made with extramural funding even when the extramural funding does not require university ownership and university IP policy does not require university funding unless the extramural contract does. For instance, Bayh-Dole does not require university ownership of inventions (yet), so a requirement in the IP Agreement that inventors assign inventions in compliance with extramural research contracts would not require the assignment of any inventions made with federal support. But this clever bit of wording makes it appear that the university takes ownership of such inventions anyway, merely because there is an extramural contract. Clever, but corrupt.

For grants, in this part B, there are three matters, and then another terminal constituent that is typically ambiguous but apparently applies to all three of the matters, not just the last one. The three matters are documenting and disclosing inventions, assigning inventions (and copyrights!), and “execution of papers.” It is fine to put folks on notice that these things might come up in extramural contracts. It would help to explain what “execution of papers” means. We might expect that this is an amateurish way of saying “assist with the patenting process.” We also might recognize a vestige of Bayh-Dole’s standard patent rights clause:

execute all papers necessary to file patent applications on subject inventions and to establish the government’s rights in the subject inventions

But in that case, the assistance requirement is spelled out. Not here, in part B of the IP Agreement. We look briefly at the four elements then of the terminal constituent, which expands on the three matters. Again, these four “responsibilities” are embedded in a sentence that’s conditional–these may be required, if an extramural contract requires them or the university’s IP policy requires them. It’s just that nothing in this part B is required otherwise. Taking the first element, it may be required:

documentation, including laboratory notebooks, where appropriate, must be maintained to adequately demonstrate that inventions or discoveries were conceived or first reduced-to-practice by me with the utilization of time, money or facilities charged to said contracts or grants, and copyrightable works vested thereunder must be submitted to the University.

Suddenly, rank amateur legaleze! “Said contracts” indeed–what said contracts? The imperative mood here is at odds with the subjunctive mood of the sentence that contains it–“must be maintained,” “must be submitted”–as if these are requirements of the IP Agreement and not possibilities based on new responsibilities created by an extramural contract. And for each thing, goofy walkbacks–“where appropriate”; “to adequately demonstrate.” We may demand, but only at one’s discretion, whatever. Again, whether time, money, or facilities are “charged” is immaterial in general to an extramural research contract. What matters is the statement of work, the statement of deliverables. This is true, especially, for federal funding agreements. Here’s the Bayh-Dole implementing regulations on the matter:

Notwithstanding the right of research organizations to accept supplemental funding from other sources for the purpose of expediting or more comprehensively accomplishing the research objectives of the government sponsored project, it is clear that the ownership provisions of these regulations would remain applicable in any invention “conceived or first actually reduced to practice in performance” of the project. Separate accounting for the two funds used to support the project in this case is not a determining factor.

It does not matter where work is “charged.” That’s just accounting, or accounting fraud. What matters is what work has been “planned and committed.”

What “vested thereunder” means with regard to “copyrightable” works is beyond me. Extramural contracts engage universities as independent contractors. No copyright can “vest” with an extramural sponsor. But “vested thereunder” must have sounded good to incompetent ears, perhaps an instance of the Dunning-Kruger effect, and so we have “vested thereunder” awaiting its day in court to be sorted out.

There’s an argument that IP policies this messed up result in voluntary invention practices–faculty assign though they could walk away–it’s just that few faculty have the desire or funds to fight bozo administrators with unlimited legal budgets.

The second element has to do with assignments:

inventions conceived or first reduced-to-practice by me in carrying out work under said contracts and grants, and copyrightable works created thereunder, must be assigned or licensed to Sponsors, if the University or Sponsors so request;

This requirement (again, it may show up in an extramural contract) is directed at assignment or licensing to a sponsor, not to the university. How can it matter that an invention “must be assigned” to a sponsor if the inventor has already agreed (against IP policy) to assign the invention to the university? Oh, consistency, that’s for small minds. It takes a truly incompetent one to write an IP Agreement for Penn State. Is this becoming a refrain? Shall I end each paragraph with this refrain? Is it so painful that paragraph after paragraph is just garbage–lofty, legalistic, demanding, fake-precise incompetent garbage?

What’s odd is that the university reserves the right to request that an inventor assign an invention to the sponsor, even if the sponsor does not request assignment. What is with that? What basis in IP policy is there for the university to have such a right? Why would anyone in their right mind agree to such a thing?

Third element, more goofiness:

inventions and computer software which utilized time, money, or facilities charged to said contracts or grants must be promptly reported to the University following:
(i) the completion of conception, or
(ii) the first actual reduction -to-practice, or
(iii) creation of software; and

Again, only if a “said contract” requires such things, but here’s the logical hole. Inventions must be “promptly reported” after any one of the three conditions. Thus, one might conceive of an invention and not report until “actual” reduction to practice–and that could be long after “constructive” reduction to practice by filing a patent application. See, that bit about the difference between “reduction to practice” and “actual reduction to practice” turns out to matter, if only to show again the amateurish nature of the 1998 IP Agreement. And look at software–I used to write code. When is software “created”? Is that with the first line of code? Or when some decides to stop coding? For all the goofy imperative, there’s nothing here that provides any guidance. A sponsor, anticipating how incompetent university IP folks might be, will simply require that investigators report everything that they do within scope, as they do it, say weekly or monthly, as a condition of getting the next quarter of funding. Even NASA does this with its “New Technology Report” requirements.

And one last potential requirement:

prior to completion of my association with work contracted pursuant to said contracts or grants, a complete disclosure of all software, instructional materials, inventions or discoveries conceived or first reduced-to-practice by me with the utilization of time, money or facilities charged to said contracts or
grants, and copyrightable works vested thereunder, must be submitted to the University.

Whew–“pursuant” and “said” plus another “vested thereunder” all in one bombastic sentence. What is a “complete” disclosure? Does this mean, all such stuff, or a complete technical description of each one, such as, say, a complete software manual? Isn’t enough that reportable items are reported, and if someone wants more information, they then can ask for it? Ah, but that would be decidedly non-bozo. Of course, it’s nonsense to require reporting of instructional materials conceived or reduced to practice. Doesn’t happen. A rewrite: “you may be required to provide to the university a final list of all deliverables prepared under an extramural contract, including inventions and software.” Of course, sponsors tend to want the reports sent directly to them, rather than requiring the reports to go to the university to be forwarded by administrators.

Thus, we have the meat of the IP Agreement–a set of demands that are outside of IP policy, plus a garbled mess of the tiny bits that are in IP policy, plus a long notice of what might be required by an extramural contract, but stated in the imperative, and without IP policy backing.

Then there is this:

I understand that this agreement is part of the terms of my employment; that any contract of employment or other
legally binding agreement entered into by me with the University after this agreement shall be considered to include
this agreement unless a provision of that contract of employment specifically modifies this agreement; and that the
responsibility set forth in Section (A),(3), will continue after termination of my employment with the University.

This provision is given as a fact–nothing here for the “I” to agree to. The IP Agreement is part of the “terms of employment.” We might ask just what those “terms of employment” otherwise are–for faculty, there’s an appointment letter giving rank, salary, and start date, with an annotation that the appointment is subject to compliance with policy and perhaps approval by the regents or trustees. The rest of this provision is just bizarre. The IP Agreement is part of one’s terms of employment. What is the fixation with subsequent university employment? Wouldn’t IP policy require a new IP Agreement? What is this “shall be considered” as distinct from “shall incorporate”? Who is doing the considering? Ah, heck. Who cares? It’s just a mess created by amateurs. Here, an IP Agreement claims that it inserts itself into any other agreement with the university unless that agreement “specifically modifies this agreement.” Huh? Why not simply exclude the agreement? And on what basis can the university exclude the IP Agreement, given that IP policy demands it? And if at this point the individual is asked only to acknowledge an understanding, how is it that the A.3 requirement continues after employment when the whole agreement is conditioned on employment? What is the mechanism that allows the assistance provision to survive termination of employment? Where is the consideration for that promise? I don’t see it, but then after working through this IP Agreement, there’s much not to see.

And finally, one last obligation:

If I am now or hereafter become a principal investigator or director of a University research, development, or other
type of project, I will determine whether each person who performs any part of the research or development work on
the project for which I am responsible (exclusive of clerical or manual labor personnel) has signed an appropriate
Intellectual Property Agreement; and if not, will obtain such additional Intellectual Property Agreements as are
necessary, and forward them to the Intellectual Property Office.

Well, here’s the IP policy requirement:

It shall be the responsibility of the appropriate budget executive or budget administrator to ensure that the University Intellectual Property Agreement is presented to, and signed by, persons appointed to or transferred to positions covered by this policy.

Not the PI or director of a project, but the budget executive or administrator. But the IP Agreement simply ignores policy. That’s par for this course.

Ordinance Overview

What Stores are Affected?

Since 2013:

As of May 1, 2017:

  • All retail stores that sell perishable or nonperishable goods including, but not limited to, clothing, food, and personal items

As of November 1, 2017:

  • Restaurants and take-out food establishments, including food trucks and vendors who distribute food in bags

What is Required by the Ordinance?

  • Stop providing single use carryout bags
  • Stock compliant reusable and paper bags at checkout
  • Charge a minimum of 10 cents for compliant bags
  • Itemize 10 cent charge on receipts

View additional details for Retail Stores and Restaurants.  The full text of the amending ordinance is available here.

Why have this Ordinance?

Plastic bags are one of the most common litter items found in our waterways, and plastic pollution is a growing threat to oceans and marine life. Plastic bags take hundreds of years to break down or decompose, causing a cumulative litter problem. Shopping with reusable bags helps reduce litter and waste, protects creeks and the bay, and conserves natural resources.

Since implementation, the reusable bag ordinance has had dramatic results:

  • Overall bag purchases by affected Alameda County retail stores have declined by an estimated 80 percent.
  • The number of shoppers bringing a reusable bag, or not using a bag at all, has more than doubled.
  • 44% decrease in plastic bags found in County storm drains
  • Stores are participating with a compliance rate of 90+%

Total Eclipse

Whatever we can do with our cameras, even what NASA, et al., can do with its telescopes, there is nothing recorded which compares to live viewing of the event. (Sorry to be so "I saw it, you didn't" grade school taunting). But here are some of the photos I made.

The last two were as the sun came out from behind the moon and the very last has an early Star Trek special effects vibe, for some reason.

you took these? Nice!
Thanks. I liked your stop action Beatles thing very much. Have you been sued by Apple records yet?
