Fred von Lohmann, the senior copyright lawyer for the Electronic Frontier Foundation in San Francisco, advocates a more gradual approach, keeping much of copyright law intact for video but making radical changes for music, given that the recording industry is suffering much more severely than Hollywood. The key, he says, is to compensate authors and artists while at the same time making room for "disruptive technology to emerge. Some of the developments we have seen have threatened to disrupt existing business models, but that's okay. There would never have been an iTunes store without Napster, and wihtout YouTube...
...Quad was also on the CHL’s agenda. The nutrition group—comprising Harvard University Dining Service officials, University Health Services dieticians, undergraduates from the Community Health Initiative and Eating Concerns Hotline and Outreach, and House administrators—debuted a revised approach to providing nutritional information about dining hall cuisine. In an effort to accommodate students dealing with or recovering from eating disorders, HUDS removed caloric information displayed conspicuously on placards under food titles at the beginning of the academic year.

...finger-pricks that diabetics endure up to twelve times a day to monitor their blood glucose levels. The ink is composed of a glucose-detecting molecule, a color changing dye, and a molecule that mimics glucose, all of which float in spherical polymer bead. When a glucose-detecting molecule approaches the edge of the bead, it should latch onto either a glucose molecule or the glucose-like molecule. If glucose levels are high, the detecting molecule should attach to glucose in the bead, making the ink appear yellow. If glucose levels are low, the molecule should latch onto the glucose...

A healthy 61 percent of Americans blame Republicans for the lack of bipartisanship, while a still greater majority, 66 percent, continues to believe that Obama is bringing “a new approach.” With no serious concessions on principle, Obama is now being given credit for having walked the walk of his post-partisan talk, and his failure to achieve it thus far is being blamed on the other guys. He has no reason to abandon the approach...
