We were as surprised as anyone that a UK court correctly realized that OiNK itself didn’t violate copyright law, and thus admin Alan Ellis hadn’t done anything illegal. But rather than understand the difference between infringing copyrights and hosting a tracker, the recording industry is now flipping out and insisting that Ellis must be punished somehow, and it may file a civil suit against him because apparently punishing people is more important than actually coming up with business models that work.

Yes, it’s true. Mr. Scatter has been missing from action for some time now. Perhaps you’ve noticed. He doesn’t go out, he never calls his friends, he ignores his children, he lets the dirty dishes sit in the sink, he NEVER WRITES. Yada yada yada.

Truth is, he did not go to meditate in the woods, and the bears didn’t eat him. It’s just that he’s been carrying this thing on his back — let’s call it the Modestly Big Project, or MBP — that’s been screaming for his attention and keeping him from his normal rounds. Or at least, keeping him from writing about his normal rounds.

So let’s catch up.

Yesterday Mr. Scatter tucked the MBP’s head on a pillow for a much-needed rest and took a whirl in his modest white automobile to the grocery emporium. On the way he realized he wouldn’t mind a cup of coffee — a nice cafe au lait crossed his mind — and maybe a little pastry-ish thingie to go with it. He spotted a likely-looking spot in a Neighborhood of Aspiring Hipness and swung in.

Almost immediately Mr. Scatter realized he did not meet the establishment’s cool-factor code. Despite his flannel-lined jeans and disintegrating shoes, he was insufficiently slack. His head was conspicuously neat from a two-day-old haircut, and not only was the shirt he happened to be wearing tucked in, it also had a collar with little brown buttons at the tips. They were actually buttoned.

“You gonna have that for here?” the whelp at the counter inquired, in a tone that conveyed his sincere hope otherwise. Mr. Scatter stood his ground, and found a table, and picked up a copy of a small local publication called Willamette Week. Soon he found himself chuckling.

He was reading a review by Aaron Mesh of the new Harrison Ford/Brendan Fraser movie Extraordinary Measures, which was apparently filmed in Portland, and Mr. Mesh had struck an exquisite balance between gentle appreciation and the art of poking fun. He noted with approval Mr. Ford’s tendency to shout in irritation at pretty much any and everything. Mr. Scatter had already witnessed Mr. Ford doing just that, in television commercials for the movie, and it was a pretty scary sight. Reading about it was probably more fun than actually sitting through the film. And a whole lot more fun than the little coffee shop Mr. Scatter will not be visiting again.

Mr. Mesh’s review made Mr. Scatter feel a little better about the fate of dead trees, a gloomy topic that had come to mind earlier in the morning when he picked up his Oregonian and discovered, for the second time in four days, a front-page wraparound (it’s called a spadea in the biz) trumpeting the newspaper’s editorial-page objections to state Measures 66 and 67. We’re getting used to this form of advertising. If it’s a Fred Meyer ad, Mr. Scatter checks to see if there are any sales on things he usually buys, then dutifully deposits the thing in the recycling bin.

But this ad, featuring headlines and copy from The Oregonian itself, looked at first and even second glance not like an advertisement at all but like a front-page editorial endorsement. Mr. Scatter was actually shocked, if far from awed.

Wednesday’s version put the words “Paid Advertisement” in bigger and bolder print at the top, but it didn’t amount to much more than a better grade of wallpaper over the gaping hole in the newspaper’s ethical wall. The publisher’s argument that the spadea space was just as available to proponents as to opponents of the measures was disingenuous. Newspapers make qualitative decisions every day about what is and is not acceptable in advertising copy. At least, they used to. Nothing is more important to a newspaper than its reputation for integrity, which must be guarded zealously.

Mr. Scatter understands that these are difficult times for newspapers, but what these wraparounds cost The Oregonian in reputation was not worth the quick paycheck.

The answer is simple. Keep the spadea, but for commercial advertisers. Make the front-page wraparound unavailable for any political advertising, of any stripe, on any issue, from any source, at any time. Just say no.

***************

Since we last talked at any length Mr. Scatter has spent a little time in a town some miles south of Portland known to locals as “San Francisco.”

He found it a pretty little place, with lots of hills and a pleasant small-town feel, and he particularly enjoyed a local delicacy of deep-fried crabmeat shaped into something like a drumstick and attached to a claw. Rumor has it that the dish has Chinese origins, although the crab itself was definitely Dungeness. In the evenings Mr. Scatter found himself shacked up in the shabby-chic splendor of the Queen Anne Hotel, near the crest of Sutter Street. The interior is like a giant overstuffed spangly cat toy that’s been knocked around a bit, and in its own way it’s really quite splendid. Mr. Scatter took a few shaky snapshots with his cell phone and sent them to Mrs. Scatter, who was amazed and envious.

***************

Several evenings ago Mr. Scatter escorted himself to the Newmark Theatre to see iChange, the latest show by the lively Polaris Dance Theatre. Polaris has been around quite a while but this was the first time Mr. Scatter had seen the company perform, and all in all it was a pleasant experience. Polaris has some good dancers who are dedicated to what they do, which is a highly accessible, very pop culture-oriented contemporary style of dancing, a little sexy but not raunchy, and just the sort of thing to attract enthusiastic initiates. Sort of like Fame a few years after graduation. Before and between performances the audience was invited to whip out its cell phones and send Tweets and other instant text messages, which were then posted on a large screen on the stage. Mr. Scatter refrained, but he didn’t mind the activity, which seemed quite popular in other seats.

Last night Mr. Scatter attended a meeting of the board of Portland Taiko, the excellent performing organization with which he is associated, and spoke with other august personages of Important Things.

This very evening, Thursday, he will motor to the World Forestry Center for White Bird’s dance presentation by two of Portland’s finest, the cerebral Tere Mathern and the sinuous Minh Tran, who reveals to The Oregonian that these performances, through Sunday, will be his final as a dancer; he’ll move full-time into dancemaking instead.

On Friday night Mr. Scatter’s destination is Kaul Auditorium at Reed College for the latest show by Third Angle New Music Ensemble, the splendid troupe for whom Mrs. Scatter toils night and day. This will be an evening of mostly new works by several Northwest composers, and it has a literary theme: Narrators include the actors David Loftus and Michele Mariana, plus the distinguished Ursula K. LeGuin, reading her own story A Ride on the Red Mare’s Back to a score by Bryan Johanson. This is what’s known as the payoff.

Sunday afternoon, Mr. Scatter scampers to Artists Repertory Theatre to take in the premiere production of Susan Banyas’s performance piece The Hillsboro Story, which hurtles us back to 1954 and a key moment — one that Ms. Banyas, as a third-grader in her Ohio home town, witnessed — in America’s civil rights movement.

If you happen to be at any of these events and spot Mr. Scatter wandering about, do say hello. He promises to leave the bear in the woods.

The United States Supreme Court on January 19, 2010, issued a decision in Wellons v. Hall, a Georgia death-penalty case in which jurors gave the trial judge and bailiff sexually suggestive gifts during Mr. Wellons’s trial for rape and murder. The Court wrote: “The disturbing facts of this case raise serious questions concerning the conduct of the trial, and this petition raises a serious question about whether the Court of Appeals carefully reviewed those facts before addressing petitioner’s constitutional claims.”

Transcript

Rick Sanchez: Alright, joining me now are two congressmen who’ve had some of the most colorful quotes, to say the very least, on this story so far. Republican Ron Paul of Texas, Democrat Anthony Weiner of New York. My thanks to both of you.

I’ve been trying to figure out what happened last night at Massachusetts, just like both of you have. And I’m wondering whether this really was a repudiation of Democrats and an embracing of Republicans.

Ron Paul, I want to ask you first, congressman. First of all, do you see yourself as a Republican or more as a Libertarian? I’ve never been able to figure you out.

Ron Paul: Yes. I think both. You’re allowed to be a conservative Republican, you’re allowed to be a liberal Republican, why can’t you be a libertarian? Libertarian just means you’re a constitutionalist.

Rick Sanchez: I’m not taking anything away from you. I’m just thinking that you’re in a unique position to try and define for us whether these folks in Massachusetts last night were saying, “Look, we don’t care, we don’t like either of you, and we’re tired of the same old stuff. And we’ll vote you out no matter who you are”. Or whether they were really saying, “We don’t like Barack Obama”, as the Republicans are telling us today that they are. What’s your take?

Ron Paul: Well, my take is that I’m apolitical and I think right now that’s very popular: the people that say they’re independent. I’ve never thought a whole lot of the political parties, though some of my legislation gets as much support from the Democrats as they do from the Republicans. So no, I think the issue is whether you’re right or wrong. And I happen to believe strongly in transparency and privacy and lot of liberal democrats will support me on that. And they will support me on foreign policy as well.

Rick Sanchez: What are Democrats like Anthony Weiner wrong about that cost them Massachusetts last night? What are the Democrats wrong about right now? What’s Obama wrong about?

Ron Paul: Well, I don’t know whether I’ll use the word ‘wrong’, but I think where they’re missing it is that what the people are upset about is that the government no longer can function because it fails. They’re incapable of doing this, they take on too much.

It isn’t who’s going to manage the right way or the wrong way, it’s just that’s its unmanageable. It’s sort of like directing traffic for every single person in the country. It doesn’t work. Markets work better than government.

Government bureaucrats and politicians tend to be political and they tend to mess things up and prices go up and become inefficient. So the process is wrong and I happen to believe in the marketplace; that they’re more capable. I’d like to see people at least consider delivering medical care like we deliver cell phones. Prices go down and quality goes up. But no, when the government does it, the opposite happens.

Rick Sanchez: Alright, Anthony Weiner, you heard that. That’s an interesting analysis he provided you with, giving you perhaps some information you could use as a Democrat. What’s your take?

Anthony Weiner: Well, the only problem with that is if you look at the places the government has entered, we’ve actually done, in many cases, a better job than the private sector. You ask people whether they like Medicare, 96% of people on it say they like it. It has an overhead rate of 1% compared to the private sector, which has an overhead of about 30%. And in terms of containing costs, actually we’re doing a better job on Medicare despite the fact that they’re all senior citizens.

Look, the problems the Democrats have had recently is that we’ve kind of gotten away from the things that we know work and the people like. You know, we’ve made compromises to get rid of the public option, and that would have been competition, more choice going in the direction that Congressman Paul wants to go into. We jettison that on the altar of getting 60 votes from our senators, and we forgot that the American people are pretty smart. They watch these things and they say, “What is it exactly that the Democrat healthcare plan is supposed to be about, if not something like the public option or expanding Medicare?” That, I think, is the mistake we’ve made.

You know, Congressman Paul is one of the rare, truly consistent guys in Congress, and we all respect him for that. I mean, sometimes I’m not sure he’s in touch with the mother ship on some of the things he proposes, but he’s always consistent. But in this case he just happens to have it wrong.

Rick Sanchez: Go head, Congressman Paul.

Ron Paul: On the Medicare: Yes, some people are satisfied with Medicare. But what he failed to say is that it’s bankrupt. The end stages are there, you just can’t whack away like they propose taking away some of the Medicare benefits. Take the housing, you can say public housing is great; everybody gets a wonderful house, we made interest rates low, we give them no down payments, and everybody is happy, until they lose their house and we bail out Wall Street and big banks. So it’s a failed system.

Rick Sanchez: Congressman Paul, you don’t want government in anything?

Ron Paul: Yeah, I do. I want them to play an important role. They should be enforcing contracts. We’re in charge at the federal level on bankruptcy, for instance. We bail them with the money from the people that were successful. So we have everything turned upside down.

Rick Sanchez: That’s a good point, sir. Anyway, Anthony Weiner, how do you argue with the fact that maybe we try and manage too much, which is his principled point?

Anthony Weiner: Well, perhaps that’s right. But I got to tell you, the schizophrenia of our Republican friends when it comes to Medicare… they believe it’s terrible to have government run healthcare, except for this healthcare plan, which covers about 45% of the American population. They don’t like healthcare, but when you try to mix it to get some waste out of Medicare, they scream.

Look, the fact of the matter is you can’t just simply say, “Government is good or bad.” There are some things we do well, some things we don’t do as well. But healthcare is a case that we know the free market is never going to be able to solve every the problem, because they’re never going to cover sick people.

Rick Sanchez: We’re going to have to leave it there, gentlemen. Congressman Ron Paul, Congressman Anthony Weiner. You guys are great.

Ron Paul: Up until 1965 they did.

Rick Sanchez: Thank you both. There you go. That’s Ron Paul, getting a last shot in. We appreciate both of you.

George Clooney spoke with MTV News correspondent Sway Calloway this afternoon about his goals for Friday’s multi-network Hope For Haiti Now: A Global Benefit For Earthquake Relief telethon, which airs tomorrow @ 8 PM. During the interview, Clooney will co-host the event alongside Wyclef Jean, and spoke with Sway about how the historic television event came together, how the telethon will make the most impact and the role of music in times of tragedy.

Wyclef Jean, Bruce Springsteen, Jennifer Hudson, Mary J. Blige, Shakira, and Sting will join Madonna in New York City to perform. Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera, Dave Matthews, John Legend, Justin Timberlake, Stevie Wonder and Taylor Swift will perform live from the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles, while Bono, The Edge, Jay-Z, and Rihanna will join Beyonce in London.

This week, people who care about climate and clean energy issues have been trying to comprehend what the election of Scott Brown of Massachusetts to the U.S. Senate means for the future of comprehensive U.S. climate and clean energy legislation. Although Brown voted in favor of a cap-and-trade bill when he was a state senator, agreeing that Massachusetts should join the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, he opposed a national cap-and-trade program during his senate campaign.

Some have speculated that Brown’s election means the current climate and energy bill, which includes a cap-and-trade program, now stands little chance of passing. ”A large cap-and-trade bill isn’t going to go ahead at this time,” U.S. Senator Diane Feinstein told the San Francisco Chronicle in a recent interview.

Others believe that a climate and clean energy bill with a cap on carbon emissions will still move forward this year. Frances Beinecke, president of the Natural Resources Defense Council and an Apollo Alliance board member, argued in a Huffington Post piece that a number of signs point to impending action on the climate and clean energy front. These include Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s statement on Wednesday—the day after the Massachusetts election—that the Senate still plans to tackle energy and climate in order to “strengthen our national security, our environment and our economy.” Beinecke also referenced the ongoing bipartisan effort by Senators Kerry, Graham and Lieberman to produce a bill that both Democrats and Republicans will support.

The Apollo Alliance is continuing to urge the Senate to move forward with a comprehensive energy bill that includes a cap on greenhouse gas emissions. In fact, with Congress and the administration’s new focus on “jobs, jobs, jobs,” passage of a climate and clean energy bill is more relevant than ever. Climate and clean energy measures create jobs. Even without national climate and clean energy policies, green jobs have grown at more than twice the rate of overall jobs over the past decade, according to a June 2009 study by the Pew Charitable Trusts. State-level studies show the same trend. For example, a December 2009 study by Collaborative Economics and Next 10 showed that California, which has some of the most forward-thinking climate policies in the country, has seen green job growth outpace overall job growth by a rate of almost 3-to-1 since 1995.

Weekly update readers may be familiar with the studies quoted above, but another compelling study has received less public attention. Published recently in the journal Energy Policy, the study, by Dan Kammen and his colleagues at UC Berkeley, finds that all non-fossil fuel technologies (including renewable energy, energy efficiency and low-carbon technologies) create more jobs per unit of energy than the fossil fuel sector does. Click here to read the study.

States Still Taking the Lead

While national policymakers are still debating whether and what action to take on climate and clean energy issues, states continue to lead the way with cutting-edge programs in renewable energy, energy efficiency, clean cars, cap-and-trade programs and more. Dozens of states have renewable energy standards, energy efficiency standards for their buildings and appliances, standards requiring reduced greenhouse gas emissions from automobiles, or are participating in regional cap-and-trade programs.

This year, states are continuing to plow ahead on clean energy initiatives, clearing a path for future federal government action. In Wisconsin, legislators are beginning to debate a bill that would require 25 percent of the state’s energy to come from renewable sources by 2025. In Washington state, Gov. Chris Gregoire, inspired by her trip to the international climate negotiations in Copenhagen, recently announced plans to make state agencies carbon neutral by 2020. In Tennessee, Gov. Phil Bredesen is busily—and successfully—working to attract solar manufacturers to his state.

To find out more about what’s happening at the state and local level on clean energy issues, get in touch with our state and local Apollo Alliance affiliates. You can also learn more about individual states’ existing programs and plans at the Pew Center on Global Climate Change website.

In Other News …

*Next week, the Apollo Alliance will release three reports that analyze existing workforce training programs in Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin and identify ways those programs can be better integrated and scaled up to help fill jobs in the clean energy sector. The reports look at the skills that are needed for green-collar jobs in construction and manufacturing, and make recommendations for how existing training programs can provide those skills by filling in gaps between programs rather than investing in new and sometimes unnecessary ones. The reports, Mapping Green Career Pathways, were co-written by the Apollo Alliance and partner organizations in each state and will be posted to ApolloAlliance.org on Mon., Jan. 25.

*In case you haven’t heard, Carl Pope, long-time executive director of the Sierra Club and an Apollo Alliance board member, announced this week that he is leaving his current post and will become executive chairman of the organization. We offer our sincere appreciation to Carl for all the wonderful work he’s done at the Sierra Club, and we look forward to working with him in his new position. Meanwhile, we’re excited that the Club’s new executive director will be Mike Brune, who we know well from his work leading the Rainforest Action Network the past seven years. Mike, good luck with your new job!

*As part of the lead up to Clean Energy Week 2010 (Feb. 1 – 5 in Washington, DC), Apollo’s executive director, Cathy Calfo, will participate with two other clean energy experts in a webinar called “Looking Ahead to Clean Energy Week 2010: An Analysis of the State of Clean Energy in the U.S.” The webinar will be held on Mon., Jan. 25 at noon eastern time and will cover a review of recent state and federal policy initiatives, among other topics.

Of course, the content of this post consists entirely of the thoughts and opinions of the author.

Slashdot points us to an article trying to debunk the concept that “IT should be run as a business,” with “employees” as customers. Of course, like many catchy phrases, I don’t think that many IT departments really followed this concept to the ridiculous logical conclusions. It does have some useful concepts — such as giving IT folks more reason to actually listen to what employees have to say. But it misses the larger point, that IT is there to serve the business as a whole, and that means making the overall business more efficient, while keeping it secure, and that can sometimes conflict with the views of individual employees.

The argument made in the article, and it makes sense, is that IT really needs to be much more tightly integrated with the overall business, to really understand how to help. When it’s viewed as a separate silo or even “business,” then the solutions that come out of IT really aren’t as helpful as can be. Separately, it also increases the likelihood of outsourcing the IT function, since it can be easily “separated.” But by more closely integrating the IT function into actual business processes, not only does IT make itself more indispensable, it can focus on creating actual process improvements and solutions, rather than just taking a list from someone of what they think they need (perhaps without understanding what the technology enables) and delivering it to spec.

We knew that Dallas-based Kyle Bass was bearish on Japan and the yen, but boy, this takes it to an extreme degree.

Forbes reports:

The Dallas hedge fund manager (no relation to the famous Bass family of Fort Worth) is so convinced the Japanese government’s profligate spending will drive the nation to the brink of default that he financed his home with a five-year loan denominated in yen, which he hopes will be cheaper to pay back than dollars.

We’d love to know when he financed his home.

Whenever it was, that’s the very definition of going all-in.

Of course, Bass’s trade has been crowded for years, and still is, as a Morgan Stanley survey recently revealed:
