NERD LAW, 2019: Two unrelated but intriguingly similar trademark cases have made the rounds in the news this last week. Chooseco, the owner of the Choose Your Own Adventure franchise has brought a lawsuit to Netflix over Black Mirror: Bandersnatch and the tenuous if not honorific connections that movie has to the classic children's book series. In the world of video games, the Pinkerton Consulting & Investigations has sued Take Two––owners of Rockstar Games––for the apparent vilification of the company in the developer's highly successful late-2018 release, Red Dead Redemption 2. Andrew and D. Bethel sound the Nerd Law alarm and discuss these two cases in depth.

It's the return of NERD LAW!
A MARVELOUS MONSTER: After a long gestation and some delays, Disney has officially acquired 20th Century Fox assets, comprising of Fox's film and tv properties. This means everything from the Alien franchise to Bob's Burgers and even The Simpsons are now owned by Disney. Of course, for comic book fans and fans of comic book movies, the biggest part of this deal means that the X-Men and the Fantastic Four film rights are now under Disney/Marvel control. But it's a much bigger––and more complicated––deal than just the superhero franchises and make some people a little nervous.
WHAT NINTENDON'T: Emulation software has been on the internet for at least twenty years at this point, allowing people to download and play often near-perfect versions of games from the NES, SNES, and many other classic consoles. While playing emulated games have always been legally murky, Nintendo's big legal smackdown of a few emulator and ROM sites in particular have really shaken the whole community in more ways than one.

Nerd Law 101: Intellectual Property Basics
22 March 2017 Andrew Asplund Comments 0 Comment
It is hard to talk about "the law" and the importance it has in all things geeky and nerdy because "the law" is a vast collection of rules with a lot of interpretations and intricacies that vary from state to state and country to country. However, when considering the different areas of law and how they apply to nerd and geek issues, one practice area stands out as most applicable to your average nerd or geek: intellectual property.
Intellectual property usually refers to non-physical things like inventions or identities or stories that the government has determined important enough to recognize as a specific type of property. Typically, intellectual property is divided into four separate categories that cover different types of things: copyright, patent, trademark, and trade secret. Because three of these things (copyright, patent, and trademark) come up with some regularity in nerdy and geeky endeavors, they're worth discussing in a bit more detail.
It should go without saying that the contents of this article are meant as a general overview. This isn't legal advice. Do not base any legal arguments on what you read in this or any further Nerd Law articles. Their purpose is to provide a basic understanding of how intellectual property law is relevant to nerdy and geeky stuff so you don't end up saying something silly like "I'm going to patent my comic book" or "I own the copyright to this rule system." One more time, just to make it clear: the contents of this article do not constitute legal advice.
From Plows to Portraits
When you look at the whole of intellectual property, it's important to recognize that there are different kinds of things being protected. A new, unique farm tool is a very different thing from a painting of a farm, and both are different from the recognized trade name of a farming conglomerate. Because the sort of things being protected have different purposes, the rules associated with them are different and they have different names. Knowing the difference is important, because it's common for people (even lawyers) to get the rules mixed up.
Copyright is probably the most famous (or infamous) type of intellectual property because it protects so many things that people interact with. Copyright protects creative works and expressions. This includes stories and paintings but also includes film, sculpture, dance, and songs. If it's something you'd describe as "art," it probably falls under copyright.
Patents, on the other hand, protect "inventions" like new machines, tools, chemical concoctions, and medicines. Specific processes also falls under patents: a software algorithm and a method for exercising your cat with a laser would also be a patentable invention. Usually, something falls under the protection of copyright or of patent, but rarely both.
Actual illustration from Patent #5,443,036.
Trademark, in contrast, is used to protect names, symbols, and other identifying marks associated with business. These are the marks and styling that let consumers know they're buying items from a known business. Think of logos and brand names: "DC Comics" and the DC logo let you know that what you're looking at is made by the company that makes all the Wonder Woman and Batman comics. This is a main reason why most superheroes have big logos on their chests.
Knowing the difference can be important, especially if you find yourself doing something that involves intellectual property. In the future, we will take time to focus on each individual type of intellectual property. For now, it's good to start simple. Think of copyright as the law that protects creative things that artists do, patent as the law that protects inventive stuff that engineers and scientists do, and trademark as the law that protects identifying stuff that marketing people do. That's a generalization, but it's a good place to start thinking about it.
Knowing What They Don't Do
Keeping in mind the basics of each type of intellectual property, it's also important to recognize what they do not protect. Although there are interesting exceptions, most things fall into one of the three categories of intellectual property. Yet, I mentioned earlier that a lot of people tend to mix them up. Even lawyers, although one could argue that it's less a mistake and more of a bold attempt at "shotgunning" a solution. Let's take a somewhat recent example: the lawsuit that Wizards of the Coast brought against Cryptozoic over their online trading card game, HEX. This lawsuit claimed that Cryptozoic infringed on Wizards of the Coast's copyright, patent, and trademark property. Consider this excerpt from the copyright section of the complaint:
37. Cyptozoic copied the cards, plot, elements, circumstances, play sequence, and flow of Magic. Players in both games are confined to the same parameters based on an initial dealing of seven cards and play progresses in a substantially identical manner. Players must efficiently use their skill and calculation to assemble their initial decks and then in suitable selection and play of the various cards.
Although this paragraph comes from the copyright infringement of their complaint, most of what they're describing is the process or procedure of the game. But, it's worth pointing out that they never say process, procedure, or method of operation, because "[i]n no case does copyright protection for an original work of authorship extend to any idea, procedure, process, system, method of operation, concept, principle, or discovery, regardless of the form in which it is described, explained, illustrated, or embodied in such work." 17 USC 102(b) (emphasis added). The attorneys here are carefully trying to sneak patent concepts into the copyright section of the complaint.
It's obvious something is going on here.
Of course, it doesn't stop there. If you go down to the patent section of the complaint, they make the following claim:
55. Cryptozoic deliberately and intentionally copied the game play, rules, player interaction with the game, layout and arrangement, visual presentation, sequence and flow, scoring system, and Magic's overall look. By duplicating the rules, scoring, and cards, Cryptozoic has copied Magic's then-inventive game.
Most of that sounds like a patent issue (rules, processes, and procedures). But, then something else sneaks in: "layout and arrangement, visual presentation, […] and Magic's overall look." That's strange, when you consider that patents are obtained by "[w]hoever intents or discovers any new and useful process, machine, manufacture, or composition of matter, or any new, and useful improvement thereof[.]" 35 USC 101. Nothing in that says anything about "visual presentation" or "overall look." As before, the attorneys for Wizards of the Coast were packing extra claims, in this case, likely a variety of trademark claim, into the incorrect section of the complaint.
When Even the Lawyers Are Not Sure
This just goes to show that intellectual property law can be a difficult subject. And I haven't even gotten to things like fair use, derivative works, trade dress, non-obviousness, functional aspects of aesthetic components, or any of the other wild and crazy elements of intellectual property. From Rocky IV to Monopoly to Games Workshop, there are plenty of interesting issues to explore in the world of intellectual property.
This is just intended to be a quick introduction to the three major types of intellectual property that affect the nerdy/geeky community. Consider this the first step of a much larger exploration of how intellectual property manifests in the world of all things nerdy and geeky.

News Blast: The Parting of the (Warhammer) Ways
12 September 2016 Andrew Asplund Comments 0 Comment
On Friday, September 9, Fantasy Flight Games (FFG) made a somewhat surprising announcement on their website. The licensing agreement that allowed for games like Blood Bowl: Team Manager, Talisman (4th Edition, Revised), and Chaos in the Old World would end: "Beginning February 28th, 2017, Fantasy Flight Games will no longer offer for sale any games in conjunction with Games Workshop[.]" There were not a lot of details provided, although it was clear that FFG would not be supporting or selling any of those games after the drop-dead date of February 28th.
License agreements ending is nothing new in any entertainment industry. Just like Marvel and Capcom ended their license relationship a few years ago, this kind of thing happens with some regularity. In tabletop gaming, Star Wars has had role-playing games developed by West End Games, Wizards of the Coast, and Fantasy Flight Games all because the license moved between different companies. Of course, every time the creative license switches over, people who like the now extinct product have to accept that they will not get any more of that version of the content. Just like Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 was the final Marvel vs. Capcom game, the Fantasy Flight Games/Games Workshop titles just met their future's end.
What is interesting about this is how Games Workshop has been pushing the licensing business quite heavily in the past year. They were recently spotted at 2016's Licensing Expo in Las Vegas trying to push all of their brands into video games, entertainment, and more. (And, yes. Licensing Expo is a real thing, apparently.) Earlier this year, they announced that they had made more income than expected from licensing agreements. If anything, it would seem that the FFG/GW license relationship had been good for everybody.
This is obviously the Licensing Expo booth of a company looking to sign some licensing agreements.
Of course, that assumes that the end of the relationship is on the part of Games Workshop. Since the original license agreement was created, the industry has changed. Back in August 2011, Fantasy Flight Games announced that it had acquired the license to the Star Wars universe from LucasFilm Ltd. That license was renewed in 2015 and expanded to include new content. In November 2014, Fantasy Flight Games merged with the Asmodee Group, creating one of the largest tabletop gaming companies in the United States (excepting Hasbro and its subsidiaries, of course). It may very well be that Fantasy Flight Games no longer sought to pay the licensing fees Games Workshop expected. When you consider that this is the company that has licenses to Lord of the Rings and Star Wars, the Games Workshop line of games seems relatively unimpressive in comparison.
Whatever the reason for the separation, one thing is certain: fans of the Fantasy Flight line of Games Workshop licensed games have until February 2017 to get ahold of them before they will start to become difficult to find.

WEEK IN GEEK: Andrew builds a new gaming PC while Dan plays Batman: The Telltale Series – "Episode 1: Realm of Shadows."
SPOILERS REDUX AND DMCA C&D: Dan and Andrew's discussion was initiated by a post over at the AV Club that covered an instance where major television network, AMC, issued a cease and desist order to a Walking Dead fan site, The Spoiling Dead Fans, when they started listing potential spoilers to the next season's premier. It's a broad topic that is hard to talk about (and, at times, infuriating), but they do their best to really take this topic apart as it relates to television shows and the networks' loyalty to their paying advertisers.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANDREW!

News Blast: Star Trek Fan Films
23 June 2016 Andrew Asplund Comments 0 Comment
Today, while still in the middle of an ongoing lawsuit over the Axanar fan film, CBS/Paramount announced guidelines for Star Trek fans interested in making their own fan films/works. A seemingly noble gesture by CBS/Paramount, a number of folks took issue with some of the guidelines:
1. The fan production must be less than 15 minutes for a single self-contained story, or no more than 2 segments, episodes or parts, not to exceed 30 minutes total, with no additional seasons, episodes, parts, sequels or remakes.
4. If the fan production uses commercially-available Star Trek uniforms, accessories, toys and props, these items must be official merchandise and not bootleg items or imitations of such commercially available products.
5. The fan production must be a real "fan" production, i.e., creators, actors and all other participants must be amateurs, cannot be compensated for their services, and cannot be currently or previously employed on any Star Trek series, films, production of DVDs or with any of CBS or Paramount Pictures' licensees.
A lot of people have observed that these exceptions exclude nearly every fan-made Star Trek film or video ever produced, including Axanar, the popular Star Trek New Voyages, Star Trek: Hidden Frontier, and even Voyager alumnus Tim Russ's Star Trek: Of Gods and Men, since all of these fan works infringe on the guidelines in multiple ways.
That's either a wild cosplay party or an episode of Star Trek: New Voyages with George Takei.
Consider Star Trek: New Voyages, the fan series created by James Cawley and Jack Marshall. From their very first episode, they utilized an actor who had previously appeared in Star Trek (specifically, William Windom as Commodore Matthew Decker). Later episodes would include notable Star Trek actors such as George Takei, Grace Lee Whitney, Walter Koenig, and others. Stories written by Star Trek writers like D. C. Fontana and David Gerrold were utilized or adapted for the series. Within the "amateur" consideration alone, New Voyages would fall outside of the guidelines provided by CBS/Paramount. Let's not mention the length, as the group was filming 45 minute episodes as part of a "season 4" of the Original Series. Or the costumes and the set.
Of course, as the copyright holder, CBS/Paramount is under no obligation to allow any derivative work, so perhaps this is just a sample of their noblesse oblige. Given the recent popularity of the J. J. Abrams Star Trek films and the announcement of a new Star Trek series to be released digitally, there are plenty of reasons for CBS/Paramount to express concern over semi-legitimate fan work. Historically, a lot of the fan features were pretty bad, so there wasn't really a reason to get involved because they didn't really reflect on any of the work being done for "official" Star Trek.
But, Axanar? Just take a look:
Not only did it have a host of popular Star Trek guest stars like Tony Todd and J. G. Hertzler, but it looked like real Star Trek. And, given the concern many classic Star Trek fans have with the J. J. Abrams movies, something like Axanar stands defiantly in the face of CBS/Paramount and their precious franchise.
USS Ares (NCC-1650), from the (upcoming?) fan-made film, Star Trek: Axanar.
It's also worth mentioning that the production team raised over $500,000 through a crowdfunding campaign. Twice. Two separate crowdfunding campaigns. Over $1,000,000 raised towards this project. That may help explain why CBS/Paramount brought a lawsuit to begin with and why their guidelines seem so restrictive. Money is being made and the copyright holder isn't part of it.

Another Shortcast for our summer break as everyone enjoys the warm weather.

"Evolution Diet" has been in the news recently, but it's not favorable news and luckily it's not the Evolution Diet concerned with on this website.
A growing number of people are turning to all-natural remedies for health problems, but investigators say a vegan "pet food" maker in Little Canada has gone too far and they have charged him with 58 counts ranging from animal cruelty to practicing without a license.
Prosecutors charged Eric Weisman, of Little Canada, via warrant on Wednesday, but it's not the first time he's been in trouble. In fact, the Minnesota Board of Veterinary Medicine filed a court order to stop him eight years ago, but investigators now say he hasn't.
Clearly, this is a different organization that The Evolution Diet for people, based in Austin, Texas. The Weisman situation sounds a lot like Kevin Trudeau of the "Natural Cures 'They' Don't Want You to Know About" fame.
We don't like to hear about situations like these and we wish the best for Eric Weisman and his customers, but maybe we'll be able to get our name back!

Political Science Scholarships
If things aren't dramatic enough on "The Real World," just flip the channel to a newscast: politics are never lacking in the drama department. Perhaps under the guise of "do-good" efforts and diplomatic affairs, this is what really draws students into the field: the excitement, competition and, yes, the ever-present drama.
Whatever it is that makes you want to study political science, go with your gut. Political science majors will learn more than the facts. They will receive a well-rounded college education almost guaranteed to prepare them for future success. After all, attending college as a political science major lets you see the big picture, a useful skill whether you go on to practice law, participate in politics or work in practically any other field.
Unfortunately, such a phenomenally useful college education comes at a cost. Even the most ambitious and talented students may find it difficult to pay for school, but that should not stop them from pursuing their goals. Many political science scholarships are available to students who plan to make the subject their college major so before moving on to general scholarship awards, political science students may want to look for college scholarships based on their area of study. After all, it takes a special kind of person to find C-SPAN fascinating and political science scholarship providers want to recognize such people and reward them with scholarship money.
By conducting a free college scholarship search at Scholarships.com, students can find political science scholarships they are eligible to receive. Without exerting additional effort, they can eliminate competition from students who don't share their major. Certainly, the politically-minded can see how this would be a smart move.

Did you know even the use of a toy replica of a weapon may be sufficient to convict someone of armed robbery? Yep, if you try and commit a robbery in Atlanta thinking that you are just using a "toy guy", you will be arrested on a Atlanta Armed Robbery charge.
Under Atlanta and Georgia Laws, a robbery occurs when a person, with the intent to commit theft, takes the property of another from another or in the immediate presence of another by use of force, sudden snatching, intimidation, use of threat or coercion, or by placing a person in fear of immediate serious bodily injury to himself or another person. An item that was taken does not need to have been in actual contact with the victim's body. The item simply needs to be under the victim's control or responsibility and not too distant from the victim.
The Penalties can result in a 1- to 20-year sentence. Additionally, if the victim was 65 years or older, the defendant will be sentenced to between 5 and 20 years. The judge is also required to force the defendant to make restitution to any victim equal to the uncompensated portion of damages.
The more severe crime of armed robbery is committed when a person intends to commit a theft and takes property from another person or the immediate presence of another by use of an offensive weapon, or any replica, article, or device having the appearance of such a weapon. An offensive weapon is essentially anything that is likely to produce death or great bodily injury.
A conviction will result in a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years, with the possibility of up to 20 years or life in prison. If the armed robbery occurs at a pharmacy in which the person takes a controlled substance and intentionally inflicts bodily injury upon any person, a conviction will result in a sentence of at least 15 years.
Georgia also makes it a separate offense for a person to possess or use a machine-gun, sawed-off shotgun, sawed-off rifle, or a silencer-equipped firearm during the commission of a robbery. A conviction requires a sentence of 10 years which will run consecutively to any other sentences. A second offense will result in life imprisonment.
A criminal defense attorney has many options in defending allegations of a robbery or burglary. Of course, the state must prove every element of the crime as charged. There can be no conviction if the state cannot prove every element beyond a reasonable doubt. For instance, robbery requires several elements including the intent to commit theft. If there is no evidence of this intent, there generally can be no conviction.
Georgia also provides for two affirmative defenses to the crime of burglary. The first is if the defendant was authorized to be in the building or was authorized to enter the building. Any conflict in testimony between the defendant and the alleged victim is generally a question of credibility for the jury to resolve. The second affirmative defense is to argue a mistake of fact.
Many other potential defenses are available to a defendant accused of robbery or burglary. If you have been charged with one of these offenses, you need the Howard Law Group who will defend your legal rights. Our team has successfully represented clients charged with robbery and burglary and may be able to help.


The first step in any new moves would be another inspection of the Omaha facility by VA officials from Washington, which would come within the next eight weeks. That would be followed by the possible feasibility study.
Cause the facility is now do much better than the last study.
Assume changes to this week's schedule.
Laundry day we'll be moved to today. Going out tomorrow night to celebrate with Dennis & Marcy.
Today is Wednesday the 24th Day of September in my 36th year.
Yesterday was a great day. Had to eat lunch inside & that was the low point.
Work was good. Got home & had some nice dinner. Then went to a meeting.
Got a bike ride in.
Get OUT & vote folks. Every election is important, but for the conservatives in Nebraska need to get out. Vote for Pete, Ben, Lee, Doug, & Don. Also vote for your down ballot folks. 100% completion folks.
The word of the day is chansonette which is a little song; ditty.


That lyric is from the song The Pass.
What an appropriate verse to the theme of yesterday's post. Steering by the stars becomes important when traditional navigation becomes obsolete. This skill is needed when times are tough, but even more important when things are going well (we tend to think we don't need any help when the road is silk paved). Certainly, it is tough when darkness descends on a career or love. The choice is ours as to how we will respond. I for one, have not always responded well.
That dream came to me just when I needed it. It helped me understand the importance of learning and adapting. You might be skeptical, you might even be laughing. But the question remains; how do we steer when the light has ceased?
If things are going well now, start learning about the principles of navigating through tough times. It will be painful at first because you may think the time would be better served enjoying the fruits. See the financial services industry about the foolishness of enjoying the fruits.
Don't go it alone. Hire a coach, find a mentor or seek out others who have experience (real experience) under their belt.
If you're in the darkness right now, then don't give up. But be sure you're on the right terrain. In other words, if you were never excited about being a social media guru, don't keep convincing yourself that you need to stay one.
If you don't expect your path to be easy, then you will learn what you need to learn.
What Ed Reminded Me Of This post came over to me as a gift last week. It's from Ed Batista, a writer and coach, out of the San Francisco area. He does some marvelous work with graduate students at Stanford and beyond. Needless to say, I count him as a source of inspiration and fellow pilgrim.

Guests of Honor & Other Professional Guests
DemiCon 30 Guests of Honor
Guest of Honor are our featured guests. We typically select an outstanding professional author and professional artist. In addition, we typically select a fan, or fans, that have had a particularly positive impact on the community at large.
Author Guest of Honor Gail Carriger
New York Times bestselling author and ex-archaeologist Gail Carriger/G.L. Carriger writes to cope with being raised in obscurity by an expatriate Brit and an incurable curmudgeon. She escaped small town life and inadvertently acquired several degrees in higher learning, a fondness for cephalopods, and a chronic tea habit. She then traveled the historic cities of Europe, subsisting entirely on biscuits secreted in her handbag.
Miss Gail's novels have been published in dozens of languages and have made the New York Times, USA Today, and Locus Bestseller lists multiple times. Her NYT listings include Mass Market, Hardcover, eBook, Combined Print & eBook, Young Adult, Children's Series, and #1 in Manga. She has received the Prix Julia Verlanger, the Elbakin Award, the Steampunk Chronicle's Reader's Choice Award, and a Starburner Award. He books have received starred reviews from Publishers Weekly, Booklist, Kirkus, and Romantic Times.
Her debut novel, Soulless, won the ALA's Alex Award and was nominated for a Compton Crook and Locus Award, and the Prix des Imaginales. It made Audible.com's best list, and was a Publishers Weekly Best Book, IndieBound Notable, Locus Recommended Read, and a Finalist for the 2009 PEARL Award. Gail is still trying to recover from the shock.
Gail's wildly popular steampunk Parasolverse contains multiple series. The Parasol Protectorate features a proper Victorian spinster who has no soul. It has been turned into a graphic novel and optioned for TV. Her YA Finishing School series follows a young lady secretly recruited to an all-girls seminary for spies. Her Delightfully Deadly novellas follow these young ladies grown up. In the Custard Protocol a crack (or possibly cracked) dirigible crew get into trouble around the Empire on behalf of queen, country, and tea. The Supernatural Society novellas follow popular LBGTQ side characters from her Parasolverse as they strike out on their own. And the Claw & Courtship novellas feature werewolves caught up in Georgette Heyer style shenanigans.
As G.L. Carriger, Gail writes the San Andreas Shifter books depicting a whimsical San Francisco full of sexy gay werewolves and smart-mouthed mages. She also has a full cast audio production of her YA sci-fi Crrudrat.
You can find Gail through her agent, Kristin Nelson of Nelson Literary Agency or via her website gailcarriger.com. She has a ridiculously silly newsletter, The Monthly Chirrup and a fabulous podcast about travel, 20 Minute Delay.
Fun extra: Gail's bio as if written by Mangnall in the 1830s.
"Carriger, a comic writer from the Colonies, born in squalor, 197?; died, ?. Famous for her outrageous characters and questionable inclination to dandify. The celebrated Chubbiest of Foqoures was her cat, and, upon said cat's decease, Carriger engaged the affections of Lilliput la Pumpkinpucci. Carriger's works are numerous. She had a peculiar mind, in a top heavy body."
~ Mangnall's Questions (the update), 1830 ~ 2015
Artist Guest of Honor John Picacio

Recent works include covers and interiors for new Del Rey editions of Michael Moorcock's legendary fantasy icon ELRIC as well as the 2012 calendar for George R. R. Martin's A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE.
Joe & Gay Haldeman
Gay and Joe had an intricate part in growing the love of science fiction in those who created DemiCon when they were members of Science Fiction League of Iowa Students (which Joe created) and running ICON. Gay and Joe have been dubbed by those that were under their tutelage as the "Grandparents" of DemiCon.
Joe Haldeman is a multiple Hugo and Nebula award winning author. For his spectacular career in writing science fiction and fantasy, he was given the honor of SFWA Grand Master. Joe has been our Author GOH for DC 2 and DC 20 where the Haldemans were inducted into the DemiCon Hall of Fame.
Gay Haldeman was our Fan Guest of Honor at DC 2 and was a regular guest, besides Rusty Hevelins' travel buddy through the many years. Mary Gay Potter Haldeman (a name familiar to those who read The Forever War) has a Master's Degree in Spanish Literature and another in Linguistics. Joe and Gay are retired in Florida after many years of teaching at MIT . But, Joe is not the only one with an award or two. Gay shared a Skylark Award with Joe in 1996, and in 2011 was given the Big Heart Award at the World SF Convention in Reno, Nevada. Both Gay and Joe have thespian talents and have graced our stage as TICC performers, as well.
Fan Guests of Honor Becky Kinnamon & David Winterton
Becky Kinnamon and David Winterton missed the first DemiCon because they were busy getting married and going on their honeymoon. Although not registered, they visited some friends who were attending DemiCon II, crashing some room parties. Other than a couple of years missed for family obligations, they have attended every DemiCon since. They even renewed their vows at DemiCon X. Becky and David have one son, Dain Winterton, who likes to say that he has attended DemiCon since he was negative two months old.
Becky has been a notable presence at DemiCon (and ICON). She enjoys costuming and has been a frequent participant in Masquerade and Hall costume contests. Humor is the foundation of much of her costuming with her costume ideas often revolving around a play on words or mashup of genres. In addition, Becky has been a judge for DemiCon and ICON Masquerade contests. For a few years, she partnered with Denise Gehling to make and sell fannish fashions in the dealer's room. Combining her love for Tae Kwon Do (kicky-poundy) with fandom, Becky has participated in panels on martial arts. Becky is also the one behind Zippy's Karma-Go-Round. (if you don't know, ask.)
Most of all, Becky enjoys the people. If she doesn't know you, she'd like to meet you. And it is likely Becky will remember your name when she sees you next year. She loves to talk and she loves to laugh. You can often find her in a common area engaged in a friendly game of Scrabble
IRL, Becky works for the State of Iowa Judicial System on projects related to domestic violence, victim restitution, and other issues. Becky also works doing technical writing for a programmer, translating geek into human service worker language. When not working, Becky helps teach and coach Tae Kwon Do at her local Y
David is Becky's plus one. He is Griffy to Becky's Zippy. Let's be honest, no one would pick him as Fan GOH if he were not attached to Becky. David is the tallish, quiet one lurking around Becky's center of gravity while she enchants the people around her. David has served as a model, dressing dummy, and general technical assistant for some of Becky's costuming ventures. His proudest geek moment was being part of getting Dain to put down the video controller and play Dungeons & Dragons
David worked in Human Services for three decades, including working as a mental health counselor, as a substance abuse counselor, and for an Employee Assistance Program. David is currently on a break from the counseling profession from which he may never return.
Toastmaster Susan Leabhart
We welcome Susan Leabhart back as our Toastmaster. This lovely lady hails from DAGOBAH, Davenport Area Gathering of Books and Humanoids. This Science Fiction and Fantasy book discussion group has been meeting at the Davenport Public Library for more than 25 years. Susan leads this group and is known as Empress of DAGOBAH.
Susan is no stranger to DemiCon. This will be her third time serving as the DemiCon Toastmaster. She became the first woman to be a DemiCon Toastmaster at DemiCon 25. She has attended all of the past DemiCons except the first one, when the need to look after very small children took priority (and those children grew up enjoying DemiCon). Susan is known for her costuming, steampunk, bellydancing, hand-made journals, as well as hosting, with all her DAGOBAH "minions," the famous "Win Lose or Draw" panel on Sunday at DemiCon. (That panel has been around since DemiCon 3.) Just remember, "The Box is Cruel!"

DemiCon Hall of Fame
At DemiCon 15 we wanted a way to extend special acknowledgement those who have helped make DemiCon what is today. The DemiCon Hall of Fame was created to recognize those particularly influential individuals.
Rusty "James" Hevelin
At DemiCon 15, Rusty Hevelin was our first inductee to DemiCon Hall of Fame. Rusty had started as our Fan Guest of Honor at DC 1, but somewhere before our first convention came around, he was named Toastmaster. From that day forth, he was our Toastmaster. When Rusty became a member of the DemiCon Hall of Fame, he was given the title of Toastmaster Emeritus, but he did not rest on his laurels and has been at every DemiCon until DC22 when health problems kept him away. Rusty passed away in 2011.
In celebration of Rusty's amazing life (ask Gay and Joe … they have stories), we will host the 7th Annual Rusty Ice Cream Social on Saturday afternoon in the ConSuite. Enjoy a root beer float or just a good bowl of vanilla ice cream, which were two of Rusty's favorites.
To learn more about Rusty, follow this link to the Hevelin Collection.
Glen Cook
Glen was made a member at DemiCon 25. Glen Cook Author guest of honor for DemiCon 5, known for his stellar The Black Company military fantasy series and so much more, told DemiCon this: I was born and am still under foot. Hit the ground in NYC in 1944, lived there, Indiana, and California growing up. Served in the Navy, attended U of Missouri, worked for General Motors and retired therefrom. Began writing with intent to commit publication late 1960s and have since produced 51 published books (#51, Working God's Mischief, will come out between now and the convention), some short fiction, some articles and some essays. I have three sons, an Army officer, an architect, and a symphony musician, plus numerous grandchildren, all but one of whom seem determined to be female. And I have an amazing wife who has been with me for almost 45 years. These days I am, extremely slowly, working on expanding theBlack Company chronicles by two novels and a story collection. I have become a victim of Ambition Deficit Disorder, which is what has put the slow in slowly.
Glen has been at almost every DemiCon selling books to all who love the joy of reading. Signing his and making DemiCon even more special. Thanks Glen.


Ecdysis is an immersive audio-visual installation conceived and composed by Sougwen Chung, depicting biological and architectural adaptation. In Ecdysis, kinetic light, scored by ambient sound, is cast on 36 interwoven planes, suspended in space by their tensional integrity.
For this installation, I worked along side Sougwen Chung to design a playback system as well as projection map the many surfaces of her sculptures. The system was designed to synchronize playback of several audio and video channels at once, enabling Sougwen to perform and affect the content in real time.
Ecdysis has been shown at 319 Scholes in Brooklyn NY, CMKY Conference in Boulder CO, and at Drop Everything Festival in Inis Oirr Ireland.

Q: Change "a" tag URL using JS I need to change URL in "a" tag inside specific div.
I tried using this code sample but it will change all "a" tag URLs. But I ned to change URL inside class "one" only.

$('a[href="http://www.abc.co.uk/"]').attr('href', 'http://www.abc/eye');

How can I fix this?

A: Put .one at the beginning of the selector string:

$('.one a[href="http://www.abc.co.uk/"]').attr('href', 'http://www.abc/eye');

  link1

  link2

There's no need for a big library like jQuery for something this simple:

document.querySelector('.one a[href="http://www.abc.co.uk/"]').href ='http://www.abc/eye';

Petrus Johannes (Piet) Teunissen (Amsterdam, 23 mei 1890 - Dongen, 9 november 1958) was een Nederlandse kunstschilder. Ook maakte hij veel tekeningen en etsen.

Levensloop
Piet Teunissen genoot zijn opleiding in Amsterdam, na voorbereidende studies aan de Rijksmuseum teekenschool onder J.W.H.

Ütőhangszernek – megszólaltatási módjánál fogva – azokat a hangszereket nevezik, amelyeket kézzel, lábbal, vagy külön e célra készült szerszámmal, dobverővel, esetleg billentyűs, mechanikus szerkezettel megütve szólaltatnak meg. Ide tartoznak azok a hangszerek is, melyeknél a hangot olyan mozgás – rázás, kaparás, forgatás – által hozzák létre, mely közvetve eredményezi a hangszer részeinek összeütődését.

Megkülönböztetünk hangolt és hangolatlan ütőhangszereket, az előbbiek hangjának megfeleltethető valamilyen zenei hang (pl. harang, üstdob, xilofon), az utóbbiakénak nem (pl. cintányér, triangulum, maracas).

Az ütőhangszerek a hangkeltés akusztikai természete alapján lehetnek

 idiofon hangszerek (például triangulum, xilofon, marimba)
 dobok, tehát membranofon hangszerek (például pergődob, üstdob),
 megütéssel megszólaltatott húros hangszerek (például berimbau, cimbalom),
 ütéssel megszólaltatott aerofon hangszernek (is) tekinthető pl. a ceglédi kanna.

Q: How to make am array immutable I am using the custom function option for downloading a CSV usingMaterialTable. In the function I am  modifying the data of only three columns.
When exportCsv is executed then the data array will contain the last changes which will results on a wrong output.
const downloadCsv = (data, fileName) => {
  const finalFileName = `${fileName}.csv`;
  const a = document.createElement("a");
  a.href = URL.createObjectURL(new Blob([data], { type: "text/csv" }));
  a.setAttribute("download", finalFileName);
  document.body.appendChild(a);
  a.click();
  document.body.removeChild(a);
}

export default function ReTable(props) {

 const resultsData = useSelector((state) => state.results.data);
 return (
    <div>
        <MaterialTable
            columns={columns}
            data={resultsData}
            options={{
            ........
            .......
            .....

    exportCsv: (columns, data) => {
       const csvData = [...resultsData];
       csvData.forEach(item => {
            item.account = '="' + item.account + '"';
            item.zip4 = '="' + item.zip4 + '"';
            item.zip5 = '="' + item.zip5 + '"';
      });

      const dataRows = csvData.map(({ tableData, ...row }) => Object.values(row));
      const csvContent = [header, ...dataRows].map(e => e.join(',')).join("\n");
      downloadCsv(csvContent, props.name);
 },

I don't want to change the data so I have created a new csvData but apparently its it is effecting the data.
I am not sure what I am doing wrong ? I need to update the columns only ones.
Thank you

A: You're just doing a shallow copy of the array when you call [...resultsData].  Either use a library that will do a deep copy, find one of the many SO answers that will provide a solution, or do the work of converting values when you call map instead of worrying about making the array immutable:
exportCsv: (columns, data) => {
  const colsToTransform = ['account', 'zip4', 'zip5'];
  const dataRows = resultsData.map(x => Object.entries(x)
    .map(kvp => (colsToTransform.includes(kvp[0])) ? '="' + kvp[1] + '"' : kvp[1]));
  const csvContent = [header, ...dataRows].map(e => e.join(',')).join("\n");
  downloadCsv(csvContent, props.name);
}

Q: how to give a widget, a specific width according to its parent - Flutter there is a scenario that i have a circle and inside that circle i want to show some text. Both items are in a scrollable listview. i want to calculate the width of the parent and then give with to the inner children to be placed and shouldn't move backward or forward from its outer parent circle widget.
i have used stack widget to do so which works fine on a single device or screen but what about other screen sizes?
any suggestion according to this?

A: I asked yesterday the same concept question:
the FractionallySizedBox is super useful on those cases, it gives the width / height of a children based on the width / height of the parent:
class MyStatelessWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyStatelessWidget({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Center(
        child: ParentCircle(

          height: 250,
          width: 250,
          color: Colors.red,
          child: FractionallySizedBox(
            widthFactor: .5,
            heightFactor: .5,
            alignment: FractionalOffset.center,
            child: ChildCircle(),
            ),
          ),
        ),

U.N. urges states to release details on 1961 Dag Hammarskjold crash
The 193-member General Assembly adopted a resolution on Thursday that "urges all member states, in particular those addressed in the report ... to release any relevant records in their possession and to provide to the Secretary-General relevant information related to the death of Dag Hammarskjold."
Dag Hammarskjold was killed along 15 others in a plane crash in Northern Rhodesia (Zambia).
The United Nations General Assembly on Thursday urged the United States, Britain, Belgium, France, Germany, South Africa and others to release any information they have on a 1961 plane crash that killed then Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold.
Hammarskjold – a Swede elected as the world body's second chief in 1953 – was killed along with 15 others while on his way to broker a truce in Katanga in what is now Democratic Republic of Congo. The plane crashed in Northern Rhodesia, now Zambia.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon told the General Assembly in July that a U.N. inquiry had found new information pointing to an aerial attack or other interference as the possible cause and that it warranted further investigation.
The three-member panel had asked for specific information from Belgium, France, Germany, South Africa, the United States and Britain during its three-month inquiry into the September 1961 crash, but said not all requests were entirely satisfied.
The 193-member General Assembly adopted a resolution on Thursday that "urges all member states, in particular those addressed in the report … to release any relevant records in their possession and to provide to the Secretary-General relevant information related to the death of Dag Hammarskjold."
The resolution, adopted by consensus, also asked Ban to pursue pending requests for information made by the inquiry.
"The Secretary-General again urges all Member States to disclose, declassify or otherwise make available all information they may have in their possession related to the circumstances and conditions of the crash," Ban's spokesman said on Wednesday.
The General Assembly had asked Ban in December to appoint the independent panel of exerts to examine new information. The experts were from Tanzania, Australia and Denmark.
The new information they found included eyewitnesses saying they saw more than one aircraft, or that Hammarskjold's plane was on fire before it hit the ground or was fired upon by other aircraft, and that two men who listened to or read a transcript of an intercept of radio transmissions relating to what they believe was an attack on the plane that led to its crash.
There was also additional new information on the air capability of the provincial Government of Katanga in 1961 and its use of foreign military and paramilitary personnel.

The head of the ACT Emergency Services Agency is set to step down from the role. Dominic Lane announced his resignation from his role as the agency's commissioner, after more than six years in the top job. Mr Lane is set to move into a new role as the chief executive of the South Australian Fire and Emergency Services Commission. Emergency Services Minister Mick Gentleman praised Mr Lane's time as commissioner and said he led the organisation through periods of cultural change. "Under Dom's leadership, the ESA has continued to be one of the highest-performing emergency services agencies in the nation year-on-year, consistently delivering the fastest ambulance and fire responses times," Mr Gentleman said. "After six-and-a-half years of protecting the people of Canberra, Dom considers it's time for a new challenge. "I've no doubt Dom will be a tremendous asset for the people of South Australia, as he has been for the ACT." A replacement for Mr Lane's position has yet to be announced, with an acting commissioner to be appointed before recruitment begins for a permanent role. Mr Lane came into the role in January 2013, being appointed just 10 days before the 10th anniversary of the Canberra bushfires.

Journalists Win Nobel Peace Prize
Hannah Kennedy, Head of Social Media|October 19, 2021
Amidst a global attack on journalistic freedom, Filipino-American reporter Maria Ressa and Russian reporter Dmitri A. Muratov were co-awarded the Nobel Peace Prize on Oct. 8, 2021.
This is only the third time a journalist has been awarded the prize in its 120 year lifespan, the first two being Italian peace activist Ernesto Moneta in 1907 and German political activist Carl von Ossietzky in 1935.
"Ms. Ressa and Mr. Muratov are receiving the Peace Prize for their courageous fight for freedom of expression in the Philippines and Russia," the Norwegian Nobel Committee said in a press release. "At the same time, they are representatives of all journalists who stand up for this ideal in a world in which democracy and freedom of the press face increasingly adverse conditions."
The two awardees have shown a heroic dedication to the principles of journalism throughout their careers, putting themselves directly in harm's way for the benefit of the public. That being said, the announcement was shocking to both parties.
"I didn't know how to react, and then, wow," Ressa said in an interview with the New York Times. "The folks clapped and asked me for a reaction, and it hit me. It's so much that we've gone through in the last five and a half years and then this. These highs and lows are making me crazy."
I didn't know how to react, and then, wow"
— Maria Ressa
Ressa's investigative journalism company, Rappler, has made monumental strides in uncovering government corruption in Asia, as well as the dangerous impacts social media has on the spread of misinformation. Her company works to prevent federal manipulation in public issues, specifically within election discourse and the larger news cycle.
"I don't think we have wrapped our heads around how much technology has allowed the manipulation of individuals and democracies," Ressa said in a 2019 interview with the Financial Times.
Similarly, Muratov has used his role of editor-in-chief for the Novaya Gazeta to advocate for freedom of speech in Russia and provide uncensored information to the masses. For Muratov in particular, this stance against authoritarian principles has led to the loss of many friends and co-workers.
"Igor Domnikov, Yuri Shchekochikhin, Anna Politkovskaya, Stas Markelov, Anastasia Baburova, Natasha Estemirova – these are the people who have today won the Nobel Prize," Muratov said after receiving the award, listing the names of journalists who had been killed while working on Novaya Gazeta.
Intimidation from despotic governments has forced an increasing number of reporters into hiding, fearing for the safety of themselves and their families. This year's prize recipients are just two of many courageous citizens committed to exposing government malpractice in the hopes of a brighter, freer tomorrow.
"I'll tell you this," Muratov told Russian news agency TASS. "This is not my merit. This is Novaya Gazeta. These are those who died defending the right of people to freedom of speech."

The SpeedComforts for convectors are supplied with easy-to-assemble feet. The effect of the SpeedComfort is increased when placed on these.
The feet ensure the magnets in the side of the housing cannot touch the outer wall. This is important to prevent contact noise. Ensure the SpeedComforts are always placed away from the metal parts on the convector.
You can connect up to twenty SpeedComforts to one adapter in series. They are switched on and off simultaneously by one thermostat switch.
If a bulkhead is placed in floor ducting, the supplied 30 cm connection cable may be too short. The e-shop contains 0.60 and 1.20 m cables.
The SpeedComforts on feet can be used in floor ducting.
This version of the SpeedComfort can support old cast iron radiators with fins. The SpeedComforts are placed on the feet on the floor under the radiator. The external thermostat switch is attached close to the hot water supply pipe with magnets.
