Pepper Spray for the Soul: Do what now?
I keep my to-do 'list' in the form of many small scraps of paper in my back pocket. Every morning I rifle through them to see what I need to do. I throw away (recycle) the ones that I have done or that no longer need to be done. I look sheepishly at the ones at the bottom of the stack that have been in there for 5 months, the paper turning into a silky mess. I take a few out that I plan to do that day, and often wind up just putting them back. Sometimes I can't read what I wrote on them.
The other day, I was writing some task down on a slip of paper, but I was distracted by something else. The next day, I was looking at my slips of paper, and there was one that just said, "Karma".
What's my action item here?
Remember when Carmack used to have his public to do lists? I still use that format, with the little - and +'s.
I even have an emacs key (control-tab) to change + to - and back.
I think it might have said "korma", as in "learn how to make korma".

HMS Cavalier - D73
HMS Cavalier is a retired C-class destroyer of the Royal Navy. She was laid down by J. Samuel White and Company at East Cowes on 28 March 1943, launched on 7 April 1944, and commissioned on 22 November 1944. She served in World War II and in various commissions in the Far East until she was decommissioned in 1972. After decommissioning she was preserved as a museum ship and currently resides at Chatham Historic Dockyard.
Cavalier was one of 96 War Emergency Programme destroyers ordered between 1940 and 1942. She was one of the first ships to be built with the forward and aft portions of her hull welded, with the midsection riveted to ensure strength. The new process gave the ship additional speed. In 1970 a 64-mile race was arranged between Cavalier and the frigate Rapid, which had the same hull form and machinery. Cavalier beat Rapid by 30 yards (27 m) after Rapid lifted a safety valve, reaching an average speed of 31.8 knots (58.9 km/h).
After commissioning she joined the 6th Destroyer Flotilla, part of the Home Fleet, and took part in a number of operations off Norway. Most notably in February 1945 she was despatched with the destroyers Myngs and Scorpion to reinforce a convoy from the Kola Inlet in Russia, which had suffered attacks from enemy aircraft and U-boats, and had subsequently been scattered by a violent storm. She and the other escorts reformed the convoy, and returned to Britain with the loss of only three of the thirty-four ships. This action earned Cavalier a battle honour.
Later in 1945 Cavalier was despatched to the Far East, where she provided naval gunfire support during the Battle of Surabaya. In February 1946 she went to Bombay to help quell the Royal Indian Navy Mutiny. After some time in the British Pacific Fleet she was paid off in May 1946 and was placed in reserve at Portsmouth.
Cavalier returned to service in 1957 after a modernisation, which included removing some of her torpedo tubes in favour of Squid anti-submarine mortars. She was again sent to the Far East, and joined the 8th Destroyer Squadron in Singapore. In December 1962 she transported 180 troops from Singapore to Brunei to help suppress a rebellion that became part of the Indonesia-Malaysia Confrontation. After disembarking the troops she remained in Brunei as a communications centre for several days until other Royal Navy ships arrived to relieve her.
Cavalier was decommissioned in 1972, along with HMS Wellington (moored in London) the last surviving destroyers of World War Two.
After decommissioning at Chatham Dockyard, she was laid up in Portsmouth. As a unique survivor, after a five-year campaign led by Lord Louis Mountbatten, the ship was purchased by the Cavalier Trust for £65,000 and handed over on Trafalgar Day 1977 in Portsmouth. By selling the ship to the Trust, the UK Government and the Royal Navy severed all formal connection and responsibility for the ship. A special warrant was issued that allows her to retain the prefix "HMS" (Her Majesty's Ship) and fly the White Ensign, a privilege normally only enjoyed by commissioned ships of the Royal Navy. A similar privilege is enjoyed by another museum ship, the cruiser Belfast.
Moved to Southampton, Cavalier opened as a museum and memorial ship in August 1982. This was not commercially successful, and in October 1983 the ship was moved to Brighton, where she formed the centrepiece of a newly built yacht marina.
In 1987, the ship was brought to the River Tyne to form the centrepiece of a national shipbuilding exhibition centre planned by South Tyneside Metropolitan Borough Council in the former shipyard of Hawthorn Leslie and Company, builders of many similar destroyers. The plans for the museum came to nothing, and the borough council, faced with annual maintenance costs of £30,000 and a hardening of public opinion against unnecessary expenditure, resolved to sell the ship and wind up the venture in 1996. The ship sat in a dry dock (owing to a previous list) in a rusting condition, awaiting a buyer or scrapping in situ.
After the reforming of the Cavalier Trust, and a debate in Parliament, in 1998 Cavalier was bought by Chatham Historic Dockyard for display as a museum ship. Arriving on 23 May 1998, Cavalier now resides in No. 2 dry-dock.
On 14 November 2007, Cavalier was officially designated as a war memorial to the 142 Royal Navy destroyers sunk during World War II and the 11,000 men killed on those ships. The unveiling of a bronze monument created by the artist Kenneth Potts was conducted by Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. The monument is adjacent to the ship at the Historic Dockyard in Chatham, Kent.
In the summer of 2009 the Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust made available accommodation on board the ship for youth groups who wish to stay on board and experience life on board a Royal Naval Destroyer.
In September 2010, Cavalier fired the first full broadside from a ship flying the White Ensign since a firing by the destroyer London in December 1981. This was due to the work of the heritage naval gun crew who restored all three 4.5-in guns back to working condition in conjunction with the Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust.
In April 2014 Cavalier was added to Google Maps Business View (formerly Google Business Photos) by CInsideMedia Ltd, in celebration of the 70th anniversary of her launch. The tour, which includes Cavalier's engine and gear room, was enhanced with interactive audio hotspots to enable visitors with accessibility issues to explore the ship.

Gay state rep honors gay politician and lobbyist – only without the 'gay'
That's right. Discussing Woolard's experience in political office, the resolution notes, "she defeated four challengers to become the first woman to serve as council president."
To make the exclusion more ironic, the resolution is sponsored by State Rep. Karla Drenner (D-Avondale Estates). Drenner made history herself in 1998, when she was elected to the Georgia House, becoming Georgia's first openly gay state legislator.
The bill's first co-sponsor is Rep. Simone Bell (D-Atlanta), the second openly gay member of the Georgia General Assembly and the first African-American lesbian state legislator in the nation. The list of other co-sponsors reads like a who's who of gay-friendly state representatives, including Pat Gardner, Margaret Kaiser and Stephane Stuckey Benfield.
The resolution lauds Woolard's worthy contributions for a variety of organizations, including serving as a vice president of the international relief agency CARE, as a public affairs consultant for a variety of non-profit groups, and staff stints with various companies. Interestingly, it does not note that she has lobbied for Georgia Equality, the state's largest LGBT political group.
The resolution does include many other organizations and companies by name. But unless you know that the Human Rights Campaign (despite its generic name) is the nation's largest gay political group, that the Gill Foundation supports LGBT causes, and that Southern Voice was Atlanta's former gay newspaper, there is nothing in the resolution that would immediately tip you off that Woolard is gay and has fought for LGBT equality.
That's likely not a coincidence. Such resolutions lauding various individuals are usually rather rote, with approval virtually guaranteed. But Drenner complained a few years ago that she thought some of her resolutions were being blocked as a form of subtle discrimination.
Bell also employed a similar closeting strategy last year when she sponsored a resolution honoring late activist Allen Thornell, who served as executive director of Georgia Equality during the fight to ban gay marriage in Georgia; lobbied for LGBT and HIV causes, ran for the state legislature as an openly gay candidate, and worked for a number of other progressive causes, including working with Woolard at CARE.
The Thornell resolution also never used the word "gay" and did not directly state that he fought for gay rights or was openly gay himself.
At the time, Bell said she thought the omission was necessary and worthwhile in order to get the resolution passed. As the GA Voice reported last year:
Bell said she made the decision as part of the give-and-take in politics — especially in the midst of the resignation of House Speaker Glenn Richardson and her uncertainty as to how senior House members might react to the word "gay."
"It was one of those hard decisions," Bell said. "I'm very pleased with the resolution, his family is pleased with it and so are his friends. For me, this was an issue of picking battles. And I think Allen is pleased."
To be certain, all of these leaders — Woolard, Thornell, Drenner and Bell — are more than just their sexual orientation. All also work on a variety of issues, not just LGBT rights.
Just as certainly, a resolution that openly praises a gay person for accomplishments that include fighting for gay equality is unlikely to receive support from the majority of the Georgia General Assembly, which is held by the Republican Party and also populated with many more-conservative Democrats.
It's one thing to utilize a subtle strategy to pass laws that benefit LGBT Georgians — like a general bullying bill that will help gay students, or a broader bill about hospital visitation when LGBT people are particularly vulnerable in these areas. Such an approach can be necessary to keep progress moving, even slowly, in a hostile legislature.
But I can't help but wonder about the value of a resolution — which is designed to honor an individual — if we have to hide our heroes in the closet in order for them to get it.
How much does it mean, really, to win praise from a body that would refuse to honor you if it knew who you really are and the causes you really care about? Especially when that body has, as in the case of the marriage amendment, actively worked to deny your rights?
The resolution lauding Cathy Woolard concludes: "It is only right and proper that this distinguished Georgian be recognized and honored for her many contributions to the state and the country and for her noble work to make society better for all citizens."
Too bad this resolution doesn't do that.

"By Operation of Law"
by Pamela Chestek • December 3, 2015 • copyright • 4 Comments
I'm seeing what I believe is a misunderstanding of the statutory section describing transfer of copyright. Section 204(a) of the Copyright Act, titled "Execution of Transfers of Copyright Ownership," says
A transfer of copyright ownership, other than by operation of law, is not valid unless an instrument of conveyance, or a note or memorandum of the transfer, is in writing and signed by the owner of the rights conveyed or such owner's duly authorized agent.
But there have been a couple of cases lately that only contemplate the possibilities of a signed writing or a work made for hire, ignoring that the Copyright Act expressly acknowledges that copyright ownership may be determined "by operation of law."
For example, "by operation of law" can be the result of the division of property in a divorce, inheritance, bankruptcy, or the distribution of assets on an entity's dissolution. No signed writing is required in these cases.
But there are a couple of cases that leave me puzzled. First we have Estate of Shaw v. Marcus. Ownership of photographs was resolved through a verbal settlement in open court that was transcribed, but it was never reduced to a written agreement. The agreement was:
An entity will be formed…. The name of that entity will be the Shaw Family Archives…. That entity shall own and take possession of, in a manner set forth below, all of the photographs involved in this litigation. . . . That includes each and every photograph shot by either Sam Shaw or Larry Shaw during the course of their respective careers [or] lifetimes .ll together with those photographs taken by third parties which either of them claim as being owned by them via some gift or sale from a third party, all subject to claims by third parties.
Many legal shenanigans and years later, on a motion to dismiss in a later intra-family dispute, the court had to decide what the legal effect of the 2002 verbal agreement was. Here we go:
1. Legal or Equitable Transfer
a) It is plausible that the 2002 Settlement is an enforceable transfer.
It is plausible that the 2002 Settlement transferred copyrights to Shaw Family Archives. Copyright Act § 204(a) sets forth the prerequisites for transferring a copyright:
17 U.S.C. § 204(a). The principal purpose of the writing requirement …
Wait, what? The court is considering whether a transcription of a verbal ageement meets the requirements for a signed writing? Surely that's not what we would normally think of as an "instrument of conveyance" or "writing." It goes on:
b) The allocution satisfies the signature requirement.
The Court also rejects Shaw Family Defendants' argument that the transcript cannot satisfy § 204(a) because it was not signed. Signature requirements are typically imposed to ensure that parties to an agreement have the present intention to adopt or accept a writing. Here, the court's allocution at the end of the 2002 Settlement transcript serves that very purpose. The Judicial Hearing Officer personally addressed Larry, Edie, Meta, and David at the end of the proceedings and asked each in turn whether they "heard the terms of the stipulation," "discussed it with" counsel, and "agree with it," and each party said "yes." There is no genuine question concerning the parties' intent to be bound by the terms expressed on the record—it was the single most unambiguous manifestation of intent in the entire transcript. The Court will not dismiss on this basis.
Well yes, they intended to be bound, but is an allocution a "signature" under the Copyright Act? A lot of things can be a signature, emails for example, or a "continue" button, but at least justify for me how a spoken word meets the definition of "signature."
And these contortions were probably unnecessary, because the verbal agreement was most likely the basis for a binding act by a court. Aren't the events in 2002 more likely to be a transfer of copyright "by operation of law" rather than a signed writing?
In the second case we have a plaintiff making an argument that there was a transfer of the ownership of copyright in source code by operation of law, specifically "under the operation of California law … governing partnerships, promoters, agents, fiduciaries and cofounders, not as a question of employment, work for hire … or joint work." Procedurally the plaintiff, Swipe & Bite, was trying remand to state court a claim that was removed to federal court on the basis that the claim arose under copyright law. For whatever reason Swipe & Bite, as the master of its claims, didn't want federal jurisdiction. It expressly disclaimed all authorship theories (which would indeed arise under copyright law) in favor of a theory that there was a transfer by operation of law. But for some reason the court didn't see it,
Swipe & Bite's claims involve Defendants. alleged wrongful taking of code, along with other company property, determining ownership is required in order to resolve their claims. See id. ¶¶ 37, 65, 71, 75, 90. Swipe & Bite expressly disclaims software ownership based on the work-for-hire doctrine, but provides no other legal basis to claim ownership of the code written by Defendants. See id. ¶¶ 18, 23. As in JustMed, there is no written agreement as to ownership alleged, and ownership will turn on the application of the work-for-hire doctrine.
Uh – no. The plaintiff did provide another legal basis, the law "governing partnerships, promoters, agents, fiduciaries and cofounders." One remedy for a breach of a fiduciary duty is forfeiture, i.e., the court could hold that the copyright is owned by Swipe & Bite notwithstanding who the author was or whether there was a signed writing. The court messed this one up.
Estate of Shaw v. Marcus, No. 7:14-cv-3849 (NSR); No. 7:14-cv-5653 (NSR) (E.D.N.Y. Sept. 22, 2015).

I think it likely Section 201(e) precluded the court in the Swipe & Bite case from seizing the copyright to remedy the breach of fiduciary duty.
But I see no reason [including Sections 201(a) and 204(a)] why the rule under state partnership law that assets created for the benefit of a partnership are assets of the partnership, not the partner who created the asset — in that case, a copyrightable work.
Yes, that could create a patchwork of state laws controlling copyright transfers. But that's the situation now. And we also tolerate a patchwork of copyright licensing law.
"Forfeiture" was an inapt word choice on my part. It wouldn't be a forfeiture as contemplated by Section 201(e), but rather ownership as dictated by the fiduciary duty of the author to the entity.
Pingback: "By Operation of Law" Addendum | Property, intangible®
A California federal court found that a copyright can be transferred if an ambiguous document exists that implies the author intended at some point to transfer ownership, and the Ninth Circuit affirmed on grounds that the copyright was assigned by oral agreement. According to Storix v. Johnson (2017) [S.C. cert. denied], a copyright transfer was made valid by an infringing defendant's claim that the author intended to transfer it ownership, despite the author's claim that he only intended to provide implied licenses.

Hey folks, we have a set of brocades that are 4GB. We recently purchased two new brocades that are capable of 8GB.
We want to merge the two via an ISL but we are not sure how this will impact the speeds.
If we do an ISL will the 8GB capable switches be only able to operate the 4GB so that all speeds are the consistent?
Greetings federico.arismendi. Unless you have configured a fixed speed, Brocade switches will auto-negotiate the port speed. In this case, 4 Gb. You can refer to the "port login" section of the FOS Admin Guide for a description of the process.
Please feel free to ask any additional follow up questions you may have.
So if I configure the port speed to 8GB on the 2 new switches I can merge two sets of switches and half will run at 4GB (old ones) and the others at 8GB (new ones)?
To connect a 4GB switch to a 8GB switch, you should force the speed to 4G in both ends.
To connect two 8G switchs, you should force the speed to 8G in both ends of the ISL.
YOu can also set everything to Auto-negotiate and the ISL will stablish at the highest supported speed in both ends, but I personally recommend to fix the speed manually.
Thanks felipon that was the answer I was looking for. I was basically asking if I could take advantage of the new 8GB switch speed when I we do an ISL to existing 4GB switches. What I am hearing is that it is not possible. All switches in an ISL must operate at the same speed that is supported across all switches. Correct?
--->>>So if I configure the port speed to 8GB on the 2 new switches I can merge two sets of switches and half will run at 4GB (old ones) and the others at 8GB (new ones)?
Speed is a Port, and have nothing to do with Zoning.
Zoning is just a part of config.
So can I have a 4 switch ISL with 2 switches running at 4GB and two others at 8GB?
isl can be formed between all supported Switch and FOS Release.

New Exhibits at TF Green and Block Island Airports
July 1, 2019 July 25, 2019 mollieflanagan
Russian Night Flowers by Luke Randall
The Rhode Island State Council on the Arts announced new art exhibitions on display at Rhode Island's airports. At the GREEN SPACE Gallery at TF Green Airport, an exhibit entitled FORMAL CONSIDERATIONS, featuring works by Eveline Luppi, Luke Randall, and Stacey Messier, is on display through September 22, 2019. At the Block Island Airport Gallery, works by Jim Gwiazdzinski are on display through August 4, 2019.
Abacus by Eveline Luppi
In the GREEN SPACE exhibit FORMAL CONSIDERATIONS, the viewer is invited to examine the various ways in which a visual work can underscore an artist's relationship to aspects of art history. Works by Eveline Luppi reference the history of abstraction; art by Luke Randall pays homage to early american craft; artwork by Stacey Messier refreshes a long line of works that focus on geometry. In all the work, the artists indicate their appreciation for the creative arc of humanity.
At the Block Island Airport Gallery, Jim Gwiazdzinski is exhibiting pen and ink to create works from marine species that connect him to his
fishing adventures on the waters off the coast of New England.

'Roseanne' Pays Tribute To Late Cast Member
The revival of ABC's Roseanne tonight referenced the death of a character from the original series, Becky Conner's (Lecy Goranson) boyfriend and later husband Mark. Introduced in Season 3 as a guest star, Mark, played by Glenn Quinn, recurred for the remainder of Roseanne's original 9-season run, which ended in 1997. Five years later, in 2002, Quinn died of an accidental drug overdose at age 32.
Tonight's episode of Roseanne tackled the topic of infertility through Becky, who was revealed to have a slim-to-none chance of getting pregnant. As she struggled to come to terms with the news, Becky revealed that she and Mark had been trying to have children and lamented the fact that she could never find "anyone as good" as him after he died.
The episode ended with a card that paid tribute to Quinn. Additionally, Roseanne co-star Michael Fishman, who plays D.J. Conner, remembered his late friend on Twitter.
Glenn and family are frequently on my mind. We put his picture in the hallway we pass each day.
After my #Roseanne press tour today drove down and visited him.
As long as @RoseanneOnABC is on Glenn Quinn is part of it.
I'll always honor him and the Quinn family in my work pic.twitter.com/0JgsB2L1Fe
