Well, that was exciting.
Perplexing that Rand Paul has to go through this to ask a Nobel Peace Prize winner whether or not he agrees with killing U.S. citizens.

Good Morning Morons. Today is Thursday, March 07, 2013. On this day in 1994 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that parodies of an original work are generally covered by the doctrine of fair use. The case was Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. This is a topic that comes up fairly often here because we skirt on the borderline of this a lot when we do copy and paste from news articles and other works because the law is a swamp. Their ruling said the following referencing 17USC107.
Fair use must be considered on a case by case basis looking at the following:
- the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
- the nature of the copyrighted work;
- the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
- the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.
Those 4 factors came from Folson vs Marsh in which the court blasted the defendant for copying over 300 pages of a work.
So how does that effect us here? Do not copy and paste entire articles from one site to another without permission from the author. The ideal is to either link it without copying any, or make a short statement as to what is there or a small portion of the work. Besides that, copying entire long articles is tedious for the rest of the Morons.
Photographs are much more difficult because you can not copy a part of a photograph. Generally a photo is copyrighted if it has the owners logo imbedded or if it comes from a profession journal of some type. But that is not an issue for the average Moron since we can’t copy the photo anyway and must link.

Rand Paul ended his filibuster last night after nearly 13 hours. It was a nice show but I doubt if it will do any good. This President and his corrupt administration are immune from criticism because the MFM is located firmly between his cheeks.

Rich NY woman makes an illegal alien Indian into a slave for 5 ½ years. She is charged with harboring an illegal for financial gain. Why was she not charged under 18 U.S.C. § 1589 : US Code - Section 1589: Forced labor? That carries a much stiffer penalty. Is SC going to have to invade NY and hold them accountable and set up “Reconstruction”? (We’ll arrest and try Cuomo while we are at it for being a commie douche bag, and violating the Constitution.

Good morning, fellow Morons. Hope you’re all making it through the snow and ice. Here’s a little story about Groucho Marx:
The Marx Brothers began as a vaudeville act, and were able to shape their shows as they went on by observing what the audience liked and what they hated. So even after they were signed to MGM, they would take their next movie out on the road as a stage performance in order to try out scenes live before filming them.
In the summer of 1936, they were previewing A Day at the Races in San Francisco. The house was packed and the audience loving it, but the show was running long. To speed things up, the director sent Groucho onstage while Chico was playing the piano. Groucho went into his routine, but the audience, wanting to hear more of Chico, began booing him.
Groucho walked downstage and stood patiently until the audience quieted down. Then he said, “I have to stay here – I’m getting paid. But nobody’s keeping you.” That brought the house down and the show was able to go on.
Hope you all have a wonderful day.

NRO Editors weigh in on “sequestration, Republicans, and Obama. I like this statement.
The president could regain the initiative during the debate over the resolution, but only if Republicans are foolish enough to give him the opportunity to blame them for a government shutdown.
Just how do you propose Republicans are going to keep Choomstick from blaming the Republicans since he is already doing that and the MFM is helping him?
What conservatives should do now is offer modest first steps on entitlement reform. A well-designed reduction in benefits for the highest earners could make a real dent in the debt projections, cause no hardship, and establish the precedent for bolder reforms in the future. If the administration balks, Republicans will have exposed its obduracy at no cost to themselves.
What planet are you people living on? What Republicans need to do is keep on blocking spending and tax increases and talk as loud as they can in venues that the MFM can not block.

In another stealth move unreported by the MFM Obama has added all kinds of other loans besides housing to the CRA list of forcing banks to make bad loans. This was one of the MAJOR contributors to the collapse. And he is doing it purely under executive action.

Continuing favorite cars we go to another that my money can’t buy that I drool over; the 1963 split window Corvette. Many stupids removed the rear rib, so if you can find one still with it expect to pay BIG bucks.
In 1963 it had a base price of around $4,200. In the article I got this from the one they were talking about sold for $115,000. Another sold for $132,000. Some have sold for as low as $32,000 but I would be wary. $4200 in 1963 using gov inflation numbers is approximately $31,000 today.

That's what I offered employees, too. They had the option to:
Stay home all day, and burn a vacation day
Wait until the streets got better, then come in, saving vacation time for better weather
Most of them waited a little bit, then came to work.
btw, Vic that snow was a non-event in DC -- it didn't even accumulate on lawns.

What amuses me about the argument over using drones to kill US Citizens on US soil without due process is the people arguing for it on the basis of "emergency" presuppose one thing:
That we have Hellfire armed drones circling in the skies above us just waiting for such an emergency.
It takes a bit of time to preflight and arm up a drone, and the ones that do have air-to-mud capability aren't that speedy. So there would be plenty of time to send a ground based team in before "OMG! Drone Strike Now!!!!!11eleventy!!!"

I'm torn a bit on this drone issue.
On the one hand: It's very vulnerable to being misused. It reminds me a bit of the waterboarding dilemma. Do I mind a suspected terrorist being waterboarded in limited circumstances to extract otherwise unobtainable information? I hate that we have to do this, but the answer is No.
But do I want it expanded to include members of Tony Soprano's crew, who might have important information about some kind of vicious plot somewhere? Or how about the Hell's Angels? They might be able to reveal just the right info to bust that meth ring if they were rounded up and waterboarded. How about grabbing some Crips from their cells or street hangouts and getting the info on who's being targeted this week? No way do we want to go in those types of directions.
I do NOT trust the Obama administration to do the right thing with the drones and exercise proper discretion, the idea is very scary. I always tend to err on the side of giving less power and discretion to the government.
However, when I think back of that car heading toward Fort Dix with a bomb, planned to be driven through the Fort Dix gate and detonated, the idea of a pre-emptive drone strike makes me a little more warm and fuzzy.
I don't see this as a black and white issue.

I think strategically you have to breakwind bread with the JEF no matter how nauseating you find it to be. If they told him to go fuck himself, his MFM enablers would be all over that about not respecting the office and of course saying it's due to RACISM. Plus Skeeter can then whine about how he extended a peace offering which was rejected and how can you negotiate with people like that. I think the Repubs get a pass on this.

Well, that's probably what Holder wants.
And whether it is tactically sound isn't the point. The fact that our rulers in DC think that it is acceptable to even contemplate this is chilling.

"It takes a bit of time to preflight and arm up a drone, and the ones that do have air-to-mud capability aren't that speedy. So there would be plenty of time to send a ground based team in before "OMG! Drone Strike Now!!!!!11eleventy!!!"

They had a perfect opportuinity to stick it to Obama by declining the invitation with the rationale that they were going to the Senate to express solidarity with their party and its fight against creeping totalitarianism.
Instead they played business-as-usual games.

I do NOT trust the Obama administration to do the right thing with the
drones and exercise proper discretion, the idea is very scary. I always
tend to err on the side of giving less power and discretion to the
government.
That is the key. Sometimes (rarely) we have President we can trust, but otherwise no. We already have laws on the books involving hot pursuit and imminent threat that allow police to use lethal weapons.
Now Holder is proposing, albeit indirectly, that we have armed drones circling that may be used to take out American citizens on American soil with no due process.
His memo was so vague on the the uses he may as well not even have sent it. It was another stonewall. Congress needs to take this up and provide clear and unambiguous rules for when/if this kind of escalation should occur and who has the authority to do it.
And finally overall, in the never ending drug war we have militarized all of our police forces. London bobbies used to not even carry guns. Ours now have swat teams the equivalent of a company of assault marines. We are now giving them tans and they want to give them an armed air force too and allow uncontrolled execution by bureaucrats.

Generally a photo is copyrighted if it has the owners logo imbedded or if it comes from a profession journal of some type.
Copyrights actually vest at the moment an original work of authorship (including photos with at least a minimal amount of creativity, which is basically all of them) are first fixed in a tangible medium (whether film, digitally, or whatever).
What you are describing is notice, which goes to enforceability by the copyright owner, not the existence of copyrights themselves. It is still illegal to reproduce or create a derivative work of someone else's photo w/o their permission, irrespective of whether they have placed a notice on the work and/or registered their copyrights with the Library of Congress Copyright Office.
Also, modern fair use doctrine includes expanded consideration for reporting and social criticism, and in court turns most often on the commercial use angle. This is because you must register your copyrights within 90 days of first publication in order to retain rights to statutory damages and special damages, and only people making money off their work typically register. If you don't register within 90 days of first publication or only register after the fact you are only entitled to injunctive relief and actual damages, which are difficult and expensive to prove up.

Morning all
To me the drone strike issue is very simple. Allowing the government to use drone strikes against US citizens only lessens the cost to the government on creating a police state.
In the old-school days, the jackbooted thugs actually had to show up at your door to demand that you submit to the state, in which case, the noncompliant citizen might actually shoot back, endangering the thugs. There is a cost associated with that.
With drones, it's virtually cost-free. Don't want.

Perhaps, but that's tough sledding, because protection of copyrighted works for at least a limited time is expressly included in the Constitution, Art, I, Sect, 8, cl. 8 (as are patent rights).
As an IP lawyer, I understand your frustration but respectfully disagree. The purpose of the IP laws is to serve the public by encouraging the investment required for creative endeavors by rewarding the creators with limited exclusive rights. If someone could simply copy what you do right after you create something, why would you bother? And the proof of concept appears all around us, as the countries with the strongest IP laws have all the best stuff.

The reasons they are put in the constitution are plain: to encourage new ideas. It was NEVER the motivation to "compensate" the creators. The original term lengths was 14 years plus one possible 14 year extension. Our current regime thanks to corporatism is Life+75 years. What a joke.

The reasons they are put in the constitution are plain: to encourage new ideas. It was NEVER the motivation to "compensate" the creators. The original term lengths was 14 years plus one possible 14 year extension. Our current regime thanks to corporatism is Life+75 years. What a joke.

The thing that I liked the most about the filibuster is the discussion about defining the difference between acts of war and criminal behavior.
I have only heard Newt really slam libs with this kind of discussion.
The other thing I liked is the talk of separation of powers.
One thing I didn't hear is that unchecked, TFG could in theory, go after political figures, by just calling them terrorist. Although, this had to be what everybody is thinking.

There are a lot of "free use" photos out there which muddies the water. And I did not want to get too deep into the "inside baseball" stuff.
You're right, and I'll drop it after this post Vic, but I thought it was worth mentioning b/c I've defended a blogger who got threatened with a law suit on exactly these grounds so I thought it was worth mentioning.
BTW the free use photos that are out there are offered up as such by their owners, which means they are still copyrighted but the owners have effectively waived their rights.
I will now return to the HQ's regularly scheduled programming.

Rand Paul just put the cherry on the top.
No Republican will ever get a vote from me again.
There would be no point to it.

Thank you, Vic. I wanted to know which senators went to dinner with the SCOAMT.
The JEF couldn't pay me to have dinner with him. Does anyone know why they agreed to go? I know why McCain, Grahamnesty and Ayotte went, they are the new threesome of the Senate. Why would Johnson and Toomey agree?
Was McConnell invited and refuset to go? If so, I have a bit of respect for Mitch.
Back to Rand Paul's fillibuster, I put on MSNBC to see if they mentioned it. I won't keep on any longer than to fnd out what they are discussing. They menitoned the dinner, but I changed it back to Fox local to catch the weather forecast.

Did you see what happened to the two separate "blue trucks" when they were hunting Dorner?
"We have all these missiles, we damned sure need to light one of these babies off."

The party that threatens to withhold vaccines from American Children, threatens food borne sicknesses and illnesses on Americans, threatens unsafe flying conditions, threatens to release thousands of illegal alien criminals out into the public, contends that it has the right to murder Americans without due process,
is the very same party,
mourning the loss, and singing the praises of Hugo Chavez.

Key difference, and the same difference that applies to 9/11: the government has, and has always had, the authority to use lethal force to respond to an immediate threat of public safety. It's the same rule that applies when someone is shooting a gun in a park.
However, that authority is linked to the threat, not the person. If the same guy shooting in the park puts his gun down and is not a threat to anyone, the justification for deadly force has been removed. Similarly, government can act to eliminate the car bomb threat, but if the guy gets out of the car and walks away, he is afforded due process.
This discussion is about the President's authority to kill someone who is not posing an immediate threat, in this case the allowance of deadly force runs with the person, not the threat.

Regarding the dinner at the restaurant with TFG, Paul did NOT know he was going to filibuster yesterday. He thought it would be a day later.
It's quite possible that TFG knew what was going on, made the dinner invite, and then had Reid move the schedule.
Fortunately, Paul has the IQ and skills to do something like that without extensive preparation.
Also, John Stewart apparently mentioned it and backed Paul, which in LIV world is a big deal. This is a good example of how to break through the MSM and get peoples' attention.

I don't believe you.
What got approval on my feed full of liberalism's well-educated upper-class/bohemian white core demo was a call for the "summary execution" of Paul's "entire family" by "burning," because they advocate the overthrow of the government.
Also, if he supports the 2nd Amendment, he's a hypocrite, because drones are also made by weapons companies. (Yeah.)
Also, he said "six thousand," and that's a Dominionist dog-whistle.
Also, he's a hypocrite because if he doesn't think a doctor can reach in your pussy and rip a fetus out, then how can he object when the TSA reaches in your pussy looking for a bomb? (Yeah.)
You don't know any "libs." They're fucking crazed. You might know a couple Democrats. They're just dumb. And they'll forget who Rand Paul is by noon today.

And when the cameras go off, you turn to the Scoamf and tell him he owns this mess, and you are going to let him stew in the juices of his own creation, without doing a thing to help him out of it.

PS- good morning Morons. One more day til Friday thank goodness. This week is whipping my ass.

Rand Paul stood on the floor of the Senate for thirteen hours and spoke cogently. He inspired several of the corpses in the chamber to come back to life and join him.
If he can inspire Senators to do some actual work, imagine what he could do for America.
Seriously, when was the last time someone on Capitol Hill put in a full eight hours of work in one day, let alone 13?

Rand Paul stood on the floor of the Senate for thirteen hours and spoke cogently. He inspired several of the corpses in the chamber to come back to life and join him.
If he can inspire Senators to do some actual work, imagine what he could do for America.
Seriously, when was the last time someone on Capitol Hill put in a full eight hours of work in one day, let alone 13?

Believe it or not, liberty and government overreach (Ruby Ridge, Waco)
is one of those crossover issues where the left and the right actually
agree.
That's why I think it was smart of him to read from a lot of lefty writers' anti-drone pieces. It made for a sharp and easily seen separation between actual liberals and those who simply worship power and/or skin color.
Especially when both Code Pink and the ACLU endorsed Rand, but both Reid and Durbin tried to shut him down.

Nevergiveup, you can't hit five-run homers.
I will again run out the hoary chestnut that it took the progs 120 years to fuck us up this royally, and it's going to take time to get things under control.
What it did, and this is a victory, is take sequesterpocolypse off the front page for a news cycle. This is a good in and of itself.
What it also did was show a sliver of the left that republicans are not all tightwad theocrats.
What it also did was give the country hope for the future.
What it also did was move the Overton Window millimeters to the right.
Any of these outcomes are well worth 13 hours' labor by themselves.

According to Wiki they started dropping the 427 into 'vettes in 1966.

That was one hell of a beast, though not as unruly as a 427 Cobra. Too much engine and not enough brakes or suspension can really grab your attention.
Re the split-window '63s, it's worth remembering that cutting out the bar between the rear windows was considered a cool thing to do in '63, and several car magazines ran "how-to-do-it" articles showing owners what they could do with a hacksaw (it wasn't difficult). Those things weren't "classic" then...they were just cars.
I'd need a 5-acre lot to hold all the '50s and '60s cars I coveted and could have bought dirt-cheap a year or two (or 10 years) after they came out.

"If they can be bought with one lousy dinner then they are not only

It's not so much Dinner that bothers me, it's more the fact that a major event was happening in their chambers regarding one from their party and they decided to bail for the Dinner anyways. I probably would have taken the dinner invite to spend an hour telling him what failure he is. But if there's a filibuster taking place like the one we saw yesterday i'd have told the others to tell the President i'm busy working.

The hottest engine choice for '63 was the fuel-injected 327, rated at 375 horses.
The method of rating hp was changed (late '60s? Don't remember for sure) and the old numbers were higher, but not 100 hp higher in the case of the 327 "fuelie."

CBD, the trick is when to throw the shrimp in. Grits take longer to cook then the shrimp, so you have have gut feel for the thickness of the grits, size of the shrimp, etc. Cheating by using frozen shrimp and quick grits is usually a fail. You can also experiment with adding a little spice, gravies on top, etc. Coffee based gravies with bits of ham or bacon in them are my favorite, sherry sauces with crab when feeling fancy.

Good question, but the two kinds of property are not identical.
For instance, only one person or small group can enjoy the benefits of a building at one time, while any number of people can simultaneously enjoy the benefit of "using" a song or picture or text book or computer program simultaneously.

What if, instead of a photograph, the property was tangible? Would you advocate taking someone's building after 15 years?
No, but if you could make perfect clones of the building for free (e.g. a large-scale version of the Trek replicators) I'd certainly advocate letting people do so after 15 years.

After my first 2 wishes of 1. transfer all hidden stimulus money from Obama's offshore account to mine. and 2. Never another offcenter golf shot.
I'd be so happy with those first two I'd put the third one up for auction on eBay so someone else could share in the fun.
Just kidding. I'd use it to fuck Kate Upton.

Durbin must have fluid on his brain. On the Sunday gab shows he always has this glassy look in his eyes and a slack jaw like he's not understanding a fucking thing that's coming out of his upper jizz hole and how it doesn't address any question he's been asked. Thanks a lot, Illinois, for inflicting that fucking retard on the rest of us.

It seems a real simple thing doesn't MPPP? Dear Mr. President are you not going to kill Americans in a unilateral fashion. And Sen. Paul never got a straight answer. I hope other Republicans gum up the works today. Drive Dick 'American soldiers are terrorists' Durbin into a frothing fit that results in him getting carted off to Bethesda for at least observation.

party and they decided to bail for the Dinner anyways.

It concluded diets high in processed meats were linked to cardiovascular disease, cancer and early deaths.

Photographs are much more difficult because you can
not copy a part of a photograph. Generally a photo is copyrighted if it
has the owners logo imbedded or if it comes from a profession journal of
some type. But that is not an issue for the average Moron since we
can’t copy the photo anyway and must link.
Posted by: Vic at March 07, 2013 07:06 AM (53z96)
Actually, the act of creating any work automatically copyrights that work. In most cases, it does not need any explicit markings to designate it as such.

Unless you blueprint an engine you're gonna have fairly significant variances in the readings and even after that there will still be some just based on things that can't be 100% the same. Sounds like you're had a least 2 very sweet rides in your life.

Um, no.
Simple creation confers copyright, per the Berne Convention, to which the US is a signatory, and USC Title 17 is in line with.
Putting marks and or registering the property give certain advantages in a courtroom - mostly statutory damage amounts. If I post a picture on a website, and someone else uses that picture without consent, they're in violation of Title 17.

Been thinking about the filibuster-heard-round-the-world all night and morning...surprised by my ambivalent feelings about it. While I was immediately thrilled that someone/ANYONE would make a stand against federal overreach (yes he criticized Bush along with Obama, liberal scum) and was generally happy to have something to feel good about after MONTHS of gloom and doom for our side...I was disquieted by an alliance with prog groups like Code Pink, or as Ann Coulter said in today's column: staking out Amnesty International's position.
Here's the thing - I don't want the government telling me what to do or infringing upon my privacy. However, if there was a guy like Alwaki sitting in a Starbucks drinking a $5 grande double decaf half-caf while plotting to do harm - I would WANT a hellfire jammed up his piehole. It is a very strange time - Tea Partiers aligning with anti-war factions; liberals tacitly espousing elimination of due process and targeted civilian killing, supposed conservative GOP'ers forgoing every opportunity to fight for our principles to feel loved...As Lennon said: "strange days indeed. Most peculiar, momma...whoa."

Well time for another Idiocy of the Inlaws. You might think this is made up but I couldn't make this up.
My wife's aunt died at 93 last Friday, recent cancer diagnosed. The crazy uncle had been trying to get power of attorney and get his hands on all her property, but she was having dementia so he couldn't do it. He did take some papers from her house. She was taken to a facility early in the week by my wife and her sister, long drive etc. We looked online for her daughter so she could do the next of kin thing and take over, just looking out for what was best for everyone. Found daughter etc. , she's on her way, long drive etc. Aunt passes away before she gets here. Tuesday is visitation, wife's sister takes a few days off to help instead of staying out of it. My wife did, she had bronchitis since Sunday and unwell.
Tuesday W. Sister on her way to visitation, stops at her brother's where the daughter is staying, loses her iphone. At vistation She's on the phone nonstop trying to figure out , reactivate old phone, try tracing iphone. we all looked in her car for phone. Accusing daughter of stealing it, not to her face of course. Trace shows iphone here and there and eventually shows iphone back where she lives. So its in the blasted car somewhere ! I told my wife last night to tell her sister she's sending a big orangutang over to scrap the car. Can't seem to look for herself. Latest today she's going back to work, hoping someone there can look in the car.
Oh, and the cherry on top... My wife's brother who recently took a job at GM in Detroit called, he went to Oshawa, Canada to the GM plant there with some people, they're heading to Toronto for dinner and run out of gas in the middle of the 401 (12 lane) expressway , apparently just stopped in the lane, didn't pull over, everyone blowing horns at them !
Dang ! My gas gauge doesn't work and I never run out of gas. Lucky a big truck didn't blow them to kingdom come. They called on the Onstar for help and gas. There are cameras all over that highway connected to the MOT, I know because my radiator blew there and I had to pull off. I swear all this technology; ABS brakes, Backup cameras, Traction control etc just allows incompetent people to drive cars. Never mind how to change a tire.

Dang ! My gas gauge doesn't work and I never run out of gas. Lucky a big truck didn't blow them to kingdom come. They called on the Onstar for help and gas. There are cameras all over that highway connected to the MOT, I know because my radiator blew there and I had to pull off. I swear all this technology; ABS brakes, Backup cameras, Traction control etc just allows incompetent people to drive cars. Never mind how to change a tire.

Second, if we have knowledge a terrorist is plotting inside the US, why can't we use regular law enforcement/counter-terrorism tactics and give that person a trial?

Dear Lord,
If it be Your divine will, please let the NORKs hit San Francisco first.
I was thinking the same, except I'm torn between gayCentral (Frisco) or Hollywood Vine.
