Publishers put a gun to our heads on ebook pricing, squeals Amazon
Wanted to damp down our Kindle-ing dominance
A top Amazon executive has said that publishers gave the etailer an "ultimatum" to let them set the price customers would be charged for ebooks.
Testifying at the fruity firm's trial for price-fixing, Russell Grandinetti, veep for Kindle content, said that if Amazon had the choice it would still be on the old wholesale model of pricing under which it bought books from publishers and then sold at any price it liked - even if this was less than it had paid.
"Certainly if someone offered reseller, we would have taken them up on that offer," he said in testimony reported by Reuters, the Wall Street Journal and others.
Macmillan was the first to go to Amazon about changing to the agency model, where retailers took a cut from a price set by publishers. Graninetti said the first meeting was "tense" and Amazon ended up taking the company's books off its virtual shelves for a few days before later agreeing to a three-year deal to get 30 per cent of each sale.
"We wanted to avoid losing most or all of their titles from our store," he said.
Other publishers started following suit soon after, a situation that Amazon considered to be at least partly intended to "slow down the success of the Kindle".
The US government has accused five major publishers, also including Simon & Schuster, HarperCollins, Penguin and Hachette, and Apple of using the agency model to raise and then fix the price of ebooks - at a cost of millions to ordinary customers. The DoJ has said that it believes part of the motivation for the fix was to destroy the already substantial market domination Amazon had built up, particularly since it was selling at cost or below cost to encourage sales of its Kindle readers.
Amazon also pursued the most favoured nation clause that the Department of Justice has now forced publishers to pull from their contracts. The MFN clause stopped the book houses from offering better prices to other retailers, something Apple also insisted on, which left ebooks at a more or less uniform price for customers no matter where they were bought.
Grandinetti said that Amazon wanted the MFN clause because it didn't want to be "further discriminated against by these publishers".
The five publishers have all settled with the government, agreeing to financial penalties of $164m so far; and to tear up present contracts and restrict future contractual dealings. ®
COMMENTS
The law.
A few posters here are implying that the DOJ's job should be to help small companies against big ones, or newcomers against monopolies, or something like that. It isn't. There is, quite simply, a law against price-fixing. If a group of companies form a price-fixing cartel, it's just as illegal regardless of whether they're bigger or smaller than the companies outside the cartel.
It is of course possible that Amazon have lobbied the DOJ to pursue this case, but, if so, they shouldn't have had to, and the DOJ (if they're doing their job) should have done it anyway.
As for the effect on consumers, compare the price of a dead-tree book in the UK, where Waterstone's broke the Net Book Agreement, to the price in Australia, where they still have something like that in place.
Re: Publishers brought it on themselves
Oh, and the geo restrictions are really what screwed non-US readers , and probably persuaded them to get Kindles.
I had a sony book reader before Amazon got big on ebooks, and for a year or so I could get whatever I wanted from the US ebook stores, paying in $.
Then suddenly the publisher work up to this fact and cracked down on that. So rather than me being able to pay them for content , I couldnt. Not "Buy that from a UK based ebook seller". I actually couldn't buy almost anything I wanted to read, at all, in ebook format. I could however order the books to be delivered from the US Amazon store to me by post, because that kind of idiotic self harming logic makes total sense.
I also read alot of Baen stuff because they don't do DRM, and they let me buy stuff from them direct. in a format designed for my reader.
Then , Amazon came on the ebook scene. Using their power of "Having a slight clue", I presume they persuaded the local rights holders to either publish with them, or they buy the local rights themselves? They also pressure the publisher to make stuff available in various regions.
"The publisher has not made this content available on kindle in your country , click here to register your interest"
If it wasn't for (publisher imposed) geo restrictions, I suspect the ebook market would have remained alot more fragmented
Re: Author's cut?
No comment on the article, I just wanted to say: "Wow, Charlie Stross!" :-)

Modelling and Measuring Animal Behavior
Our lab studies animal behavior, defined broadly, through a combination of theoretical, computational and data-driven approaches, with the goal of elucidating the underlying mechanisms behind the neurobiology, genetics, and evolution of these actions. These projects involve a variety of organisms - from flies to rodents to humans - attempting to unearth the general principles structuring their behavioral repertoires.
The lab is currently looking for students and postdocs, so come join us!

Sets an individual value in a kubeconfig file
PROPERTY_NAME is a dot delimited name where each token represents either an attribute name or a map key. Map keys may not contain dots.
PROPERTY_VALUE is the new value you wish to set. Binary fields such as 'certificate-authority-data' expect a base64 encoded string unless the --set-raw-bytes flag is used.
Specifying a attribute name that already exists will merge new fields on top of existing values.
Examples:
# Set server field on the my-cluster cluster to https://<IP_ADDRESS>
kubectl config set clusters.my-cluster.server https://<IP_ADDRESS>
# Set certificate-authority-data field on the my-cluster cluster.
kubectl config set clusters.my-cluster.certificate-authority-data $(echo "cert_data_here" | base64 -i -)
# Set cluster field in the my-context context to my-cluster.
kubectl config set contexts.my-context.cluster my-cluster
# Set client-key-data field in the cluster-admin user using --set-raw-bytes option.
kubectl config set users.cluster-admin.client-key-data cert_data_here --set-raw-bytes=true
kubectl config set PROPERTY_NAME PROPERTY_VALUE [options]

rel-tag-spaces dilemma
Since I started using the Operator Firefox extension a couple of week ago, I’ve found it to be a useful tool – to quickly access microformatted content; such as Contact details and Tagspaces. Whilst I was testing it out on ReadySteadyBook, I noticed that the only tagspace was “Blog.aspx“, which seemed a bit weird. When I found the same problem on other websites, such as Amazon (example here) where the tagspace was “ref=tag_dpp_cust_itdp_t“. I thought…

404 Oddities
I’ve been noticing a lot of strange requests in the web logs for ReadySteadyBook, (which result in 404 errors). Never really thought much of them, but I came across Roger Johansson’s blog posting about 404 oddities. So I thought I’d share some of the one’s I found on RSB. A few of them are the same as Roger found: /robotsxx.txt, /MSOffice/cltreq.asp, /_vti_bin/owssvr.dll But some of the others seem more like hacker attempts: /cgi-bin/prxjdg.cgi : Google…

BLOWN AWAY A film review by Mark Takacs Copyright 1994 Mark Takacs
MGM / rated R Starring: Jeff Bridges Tommy Lee Jones Suzy Amis Lloyd Bridges Forest Whitaker Tak Classification: Drama / Action Tak Rating: watch it on cable
One-Line-Summary ---------------- A vengeful mad-bomber torments an old friend, now on the bomb squad.
Tak Plot Summary ---------------- Jim Dove (Jeff Bridges) has been with the Boston bomb squad for quite awhile. He's a hero. But now he wants out. He wants to settle down with Kate (Suzy Amis) and her daughter Liz. However, a figure from his obscured past comes back to haunt him in the form of Mad Bomber Ryan Garrity (Tommy Lee Jones).
Tak Thoughts ------------ BLOWN AWAY sucked. I wanted to see lots of things blowing up. Hoards of things.  They could have blown up more stuff but our hero, played by Jeff Bridges, has this annoying tendency to disarm the damn things. And they missed a damn fine destruction chance in one scene, where they imply that some lurking news and police choppers were in for serious shrapnel. But alas, no chunks-of-truck- in-the-rotors. A bomb's just not a bomb if it doesn't blow up, as pointed out by Dennis Hopper in SPEED.
Action. That's what I wanted. I've got a soft spot for mad bomber movies, and SPEED hit the spot. But BLOWN AWAY just didn't do it for me. Instead of lots of action, all sorts of PLOT gets in the way. Jeff Bridge's character is haunted by his past, he's the best but he doesn't like it, he accidentally blew up some people he loved, he's in Bomb squad to repent, blah blah blah.
And the mad bomber? The angry, insane IRA bomber is kinda old, and the U2 soundtrack playing in the background is a little much. Plus, Tommy Lee Jones is now robbing his own crazy man skit from UNDER SIEGE.
Oh, yeah. And there's BLOWN AWAY'S idea of suspense. It's called "extreme closeups" and slow-motion.  And although there are no spring-loaded cats (as horror movies are fond of for a cheap scare) there's a kitchen scene where they'd have you believe everything possible is gonna blow. It works for the first grab at the fridge, but the second? Then the stove? Then the light? And the phone? And all five dials on the stove? one by one? There was laughter in the theatre on the third extreme closeup of the stove dial hitting "lite."
Any good stuff? Yea, I guess so. Let's see--the mad bomber has a preference for Rube Goldberg type bomb triggers which make some pretty neat scenes. The bomb lore is pretty fascinating--"bouncing betty's," and distilling explosive crystals with coffee filters. They killed a dog. I dunno. Read some other reviews for good stuff. I don't wanna spend too much time remembering BLOWN AWAY.
Tak Rating system: ------------------ Bah. BLOWN AWAY took itself too seriously and got bogged down in needless plot that didn't add anything to the experience. Go see SPEED again if you want a mad-bomber action flick. Go rent IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER if you want an Irish/IRA flick. But don't spend your summer movie cash on BLOWN AWAY.
avoid at all costs see several times (w/friends) as matinee X watch it on cable see once at full price watch it on videotape see it several times - full and/or matinee see once as a matinee see many times at full price

Eurobarometer Survey: 60% of Europeans Feel that they Personally Benefit from International Trade
The results of a special Eurobarometer survey published by the European Commission show that 60% of Europeans feel that they personally benefit from international trade, 16 percentage points more than 10 years ago at the time of the previous poll. The survey also revealed that 71% of respondents believe that the EU is more effective in defending their countries' trade interests than these countries acting on their own.
- 54% of respondents suggest that the main priority of the EU trade policy should be to create jobs in the EU. Defending EU environment and health standards has also become important to Europeans, half of the respondents consider it a priority. This is 20 percentage points more than in 2010. More than half of Europeans recognise at the same time that the EU trade policy has already been taking into account the social, environmental and human rights impacts within the EU and worldwide.
- Three quarters of Europeans agree we need international trade rules.
- Six in ten say that they trust the EU to conduct its trade policy in an open and transparent manner.
- 54% of those considering international trade beneficial for them put it on awider choice of products, while 36% sees price reduction as the most important advantage. These benefits seem to be more tangible for younger respondents and those with a higher level of education and income.
- one third of those questioned think that it is naïve to expect that other countries will follow trade rules. More than half of the respondents think that the EU should increase import duties on non-EU countries or businesses that do not play by international trade rules.
More information can be found on the European Commission site.

Austria's Schwab seizes 3-shot Turkish Open lead
Antalya - Austrian Matthias Schwab edged closer to a maiden European Tour title by claiming a three-shot lead at the Turkish Open on Saturday, while Justin Rose's bid for a third straight victory in the tournament all but ended.
World No 102 Schwab, who has posted nine top-10 finishes this season without securing a win, fired a six-under-par third round of 66 to reach 18 under par overall.
He leads a group of five players, including former Masters champion Patrick Reed, by three strokes.
"I'll just try and do the same stuff that I've been doing the last few days, and I'm sure pars will not be enough tomorrow because it's usually pretty gettable out here," he said.
An eagle on the opening hole for the second straight day got the 24-year-old off to a flying start.
Despite a double-bogey on the 12th, he made two further birdies, including on the final green, to take control of the tournament.
Reed is level with Scotland's Robert MacIntyre, Ross Fisher, Frenchman Benjamin Hebert and Ryder Cup winner Tyrrell Hatton on 15-under.
American Reed, who was named as a wildcard by Tiger Woods for next month's Presidents Cup on Friday, poured in eight birdies.
"At the end of the day, whoever is in the lead, they are in the driver's seat obviously," he said.
"If they go out and continue playing good golf and make a lot of birdies, going to be hard to catch."
Former world number one Rose is attempting to join Nick Faldo, Ian Woosnam and Colin Montgomerie as the only players to win a European Tour event three years in a row.

Design the Coding Spreadsheet¶
Design the spreadsheet to make coding and exporting efficient and straightforward. Think through each coding pass one by one.
In Datavyu, each column represents a coding pass. Start with a column containing the participant information and a column (or multiple columns) to delineate sections of the session and conditions within studies and trials within conditions. If your study is highly structured with trials, then you can code the smallest experimental unit (the trial) at the same time as you code your primary outcome measure. Focus first on your most important outcome measures. Include variables in the pass that coders can see “for free” without having to shift their attention or think deeply (refer to Minimize Pain, Maximize Gain section, If you have already seen it, you may as well code it).
In Datavyu, each cell in a column can contain zero or multiple codes. A cell will contain zero codes when every cell represents the same type of event and you do not want additional information about each event (e.g., the onset time is when the left foot comes onto the floor and the offset time is when the left foot leaves the floor; or the onset time is when the eyes point at the target and the offset time is when the eyes leave the target).
Because cells correspond to certain times, you may want to define onsets as the start of a behavior and offsets as the end of the behavior, but this is not obligatory. If you don’t want to analyze time in terms of durations of behaviors, you don’t have to stress over onsets and offsets. But if you do want to analyze durations of behaviors, creating criteria for onsets and offsets is important.
Because each cell corresponds to a particular time (from the onset to offset), it usually makes sense for all of the codes within a cell to correspond to the behaviors within that time interval. However, this is not obligatory. Your cell can include information that occurred before the cell began or after the cell ended (e.g., cell onset = when mother selects a toy and cell offset = when mother offers the toy to the child; a variable within the cell reflects whether child accepted the toy, despite the fact that the acceptance or rejection occurred after the offset of the cell, etc.). Build the prompts for each code with the “minimize pain/maximize gain” rule in mind.
Video Example¶
This video displays how easy it is to set up a draft spreadsheet. After the columns and codes are added through the Code Editor, you can view the prompts provided for the coders.

Welcome to login-fiddle, a single page web app that demonstrates authentication, sessions and data persistence.
As well as showing one way to implement these features to a release-ready, industry-grade level, this web app is also an attempt to showcase as many good software development habits as I can muster. It is released under the MIT license and I hope that it will be useful to others as an example and as code they can freely use.
With special thanks to David Sulc, the code architecture of the client component in login-fiddle is based on his excellent Marionette books here. If you'd like to learn more about Marionette I recommend these books.

Consider a probabilistic model in which we denote all of the observed variables by \(\X\) and all and all of the hidden variables by \(\Z\). In general, the probabilistic model is designed by a generative story which implies a definition of the joint probability \(P(\X, \Z)\). The variational inference starts from the following equation:
\begin{align} \log(P(\X|\pa)) - \dkl(q(\Z)||P(\Z|\X,\pa)) &= \lb \\ \lb &= \sum_{\Z}q(\Z) \log(\frac{P(\X,\Z|\pa)}{q(\Z)}) \\ &= E_{q}[ \log(\frac{P(\X,\Z|\pa)}{q(\Z)}) ] \\ &= E_{q}[ \log(P(\X|\Z, \pa) ] - \dkl(q(\Z)| P(\Z)) \end{align}The goal is to optimize the evidence term \(\log(P(\X|\pa))\), but for tractability purpose we approximate this optimization program by optimizion the evidence lower bound (or elbo) \(\lb\). The new goal is to find a distribution \(\q\) which is as close as possible of \(P(\Z)\), as well as maximizing the expectation of \(\p(\X|\Z)\) under \(q\). The elbo can be written as follows, introducting the parameters for the both distributions: \[ \lb(\pa,\paphi, \X) = - \dkl[\q(\Z)||P(\Z)] + E_{\q} [\log \p(\X|\Z)], \]
where \(\pa\) the parameters for \(\p(\X|\Z)\) and \(\paphi\) for \(q\). This is the convention objective function for variational approach, where the goal is to estimate \(q\).
VAE can be seen as a way to parametrize with neural net the optimization program of variational inference. The first step is to replace \(\q(\Z)\) by \(\q(\Z|\X)\). This allows us to design a NNet to infer this conditional distribution. Therefore the objective function becomes:
\begin{align} \lb_{VAE}(\pa,\paphi, \X) &= - \dkl[\q(\Z|\X)||P(\Z)] + E_{\q} [\log \p(\X|\Z)] \\ &= E_{\q} [\log \p(\X|\Z)] - E_{\q} [\log \q(\Z|\X)] + E_{\q} [\log P(\Z)] \end{align}Moreover, we assume \(\q(\Z|\X)\) to be gaussian \(\mathcal{N}(\qmu,\qsigma)\) (i.e the covariance matrix is diagonal). To estimate this distribution, a NNet infer from \(\X\) these two parameters and then we can draw a value of \(\Z\): \[ \Z \sim \qmu + \qsigma \epsilon, \] where \(\epsilon\) is a gaussian noise \(\sim \mathcal{N}(0,1)\). This is the reparametrization trick. With this trick and the introduction of \(\q(\Z|\X)\) place of \(\q(\Z)\), a single NNet can be designed to trained the both involved functions:
In the seminal paper, we also assume that \(\p\) is gaussian and with the same reparametrization trick and a noise sample, we can generate a re-construction of the input and compute the re-construction error. So we have two "outputs":
Therefore the both functions (\(\q\) and \(\p\)) are trained using a single NNet with back-propagation of the gradient for the two terms of the objective function.
Assume a source sentence \(\X = x_{1}^{\lsrc}\) and a target sentence \(\Y = y_{1}^{\ltrg}\). A NMT system defines the probability distribution \(P(\Y|\X,\pd)\) as a funtion \(g\) parametrized by \(\pd\):
\begin{align} P(\Y|\X,\pd) &= \prod_{j=1}^{j=J}P(y_j|y_{1}, ... , y_{j-1},\X,\pd) \\ P(y_j|y_{1}, ... , y_{j-1},\X,\pd) &= P(y_j|y_{j-1}, \C_j, s_j, \pd) = g_{\pd}(y_j,y_{j-1}, \C_j, s_j) \\ \C_j &: \textrm{the context vector representing the source information} \\ s_j &: \textrm{the hidden state of the decoder }\\ \al_j &= \textrm{the attention coefficients associated to the generation of } y_j\\ \C_j &= \sum_{i=1}^I \al_{ij} x_i\\ \al_{ji} &= \frac{\exp(a(s_{j-1},x_i))}{\sum_i \exp(a(s_{j-1},\x_i))}\\ \x_i &:\textrm{a vector representing the source word } $x_i$ \end{align}The NMT system is in this form decomposed in three parts:

Road Users Lament As Heavy Traffic Holdup Takes Over Lagos-Ibadan Expressway
by Oladipo AbiolaTraffic Lockdown On Lagos-Ibadan Expressway
The usual heavy traffic associated with the popular Lagos-Ibadan expressway reached a new height on Tuesday, forcing users to cry out on social media.
Reports obtained by Naija News has it that both lanes (in-bound and out-bound) of the expressway is currently blocked, causing a major traffic bedlam.
It will be recalled that repair work is currently been done on the road, forcing contractors to block off some sections of the road.
The federal government had also earlier announced its intention to suspend the repair work as from December 14 so as to ease the burden on travellers during the yuletide celebrations.

Experienced Lead Instructor/Instructional Designer with a demonstrated history of working in the education industry.
Assisted students with college coursework and test preparation for Calculus I & II and Statistics.
With so many years of cumulative experience in teaching math to kids, college students, and adults, I've learnt to treat each student as an individual. There is no one specific formula that can be applied to all students. Every student needs a teaching methodology personalized for them keeping their needs in mind. The end goal is to equip them in a manner where they don't need me anymore! That's done by making them understand the math, not the problem. Once they understand how concepts work, they can figure out the problems by themselves. And that's when they no longer fear math. It is very rewarding to see that look on a student's face when they finally understand things.
An often ignored, critical factor in successful tutoring is listening skills. Very different from patience. In order to help a student out, I first need to hear from them what they think the problem is. A lot of tutors will talk more under the false understanding that they're teaching more. Effective teaching requires stepping back and allowing the student to attempt the problem. If they make a mistake, I give them a chance to try and find it themselves. This practice can be more effective than 30 minutes of teaching time. There are several such techniques I use to help the student fill in any missing gaps in their math knowledge. And at the end of the day, they generally end up not hating math as much as they did before.
As far as experience goes, I started tutoring math in freshman year of college and never looked back. The Director of my math department recruited me to tutor students in math ranging from algebra to Calculus II. Soon after I joined a private education institution and have been there for seven years now. There I worked with students starting at first grade, all the way up to high school. I am currently their senior most instructor. In addition to math, I have developed engineering based robotics and 3D modeling/Printing courses. Along with all of this, I tutor privately both in person, and online. I excel at teaching math starting at basic computation, arithmetic, all the way up to Pre-algebra, Algebra I & II, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-calc, and calculus. Let me help you get better at math. Whatever your needs are, I will create a method to meet them in the most effective way. I'm flexible with scheduling, can meet you at a location of your preference (even online).
